Generally speaking, when it comes to the scene of the crime, it is basically inseparable from several elements.

The police and the separation line they have set up,

corpses, blood stains, and uniformed forensic doctors,

Of course

It is also inseparable from the melon-eating masses surrounded by the inner and outer three layers.

Lao Dao helped Zhou Ze squeeze through the crowd and escorted Zhou Ze in.

Take a breath,

He had a sense of déjà vu,

I remember that my previous boss also liked to investigate cases,

Then I checked and almost lost myself.

Looking at the current boss behind him, Boss Zhou's face was disgusted and awkward.

The old Taoist breathed a sigh of relief,

At least

The current boss is not very interested in investigating such a thing.

Over there, Zhang Yanfeng also came over and took Zhou Ze in.

Zhou Ze saw the tall and thin policewoman again, and the other party also noticed Zhou Ze.

It is estimated that the female policeman is also suspicious, what is the origin of Zhou Ze, the two criminal police captains like to ask him to come over to help when handling cases?

Zhang Yanfeng commanded the team very skillfully, this is also nonsense, after all, he has been working here for 20 years, and now he is nothing more than a change of body.

This makes many police officers have an illusion, and they always feel that the new leader and the leader who died a while ago seem to have the same style of handling cases.

However, everyone is quite accustomed to it, after the old captain died, I couldn't hear his scolding and training for a while, and I was really a little panicked.

Lao Zhang took Zhou Ze to see the corpse first, it was the old woman, the one who set up a stall on the side of the road yesterday to sell newspapers.

The medical examiner and her assistant were examining the body, and the preliminary autopsy report was out.

"The cause of death was a blow to the back of the head, and the time of death was probably in the second half of the night, because the body was found by a passer-by at six o'clock in the morning, and the time when the two of us left here yesterday was half past eleven, so we can basically analyze the approximate time period of death.

Also, you look here.

According to the initial inquiries received from the family of the deceased, the deceased usually went to a stall near the small stone bridge to sell newspapers at 6 p.m., and when the newspapers were sold out or before 1 a.m. at the latest, he would definitely return on his tricycle.

If the newspaper sells out early, it will come back sooner.

This location, from the location where we met the deceased yesterday to set up a stall, is about 20 minutes of tricycle riding time, and here, not far from the deceased's home, the deceased's home is behind the field in front, her wife went a few years ago, and her son has long been married and separated, and she lives alone in the old house. ”

After explaining the general situation, Zhang Yanfeng lowered his voice and leaned into Zhou Ze's ear and asked:

"Why don't I see the soul?"

"I guess I'm going straight to hell." Zhou Ze explained.

If the soul of every dead person had been walked around the bookstore, the boss would have made a fortune a long time ago, and counting the dead money at home was enough to count the soft hands.

Zhou Ze also squatted down, asked for a pair of gloves from the forensic doctor, and roughly examined the corpse, although Boss Zhou is not a forensic doctor, but if you only look at the surface and speculate about something, the surgeon also has an experience bonus.

The cause of death was indeed a blow to the back of the head.

"What's this red powder?" Zhou Ze asked, pointing to the ash on the back of the deceased's head.

"It's red bricks." The female forensic doctor replied directly, "It is preliminarily inferred that the murder weapon should be a red brick, and it has been searched nearby, but there is no feedback for the time being." ”

Zhou Ze nodded, signaling that he knew.

In recent years, there have been a lot of criminal investigation dramas and detective cases, although many of them are made up, but there are also many real parts.

I remember that a few years ago, a documentary was made in the United States that explained the criminal investigation techniques in detail, but it was later stopped, because the documentary could also be used as a popular science education film when the murderer committed the crime.

At least, in recent years, as long as it is not a pure panic and passion murder case, the proportion of murderers who will hide the murder weapon, erase fingerprints, and try not to leave DNA information has begun to increase.

If the murder weapon is just a red brick, the murderer will take it away directly after killing someone, and then find an inconspicuous place and throw it anywhere, if the police want to find it, it is really difficult.

Zhou Ze stood up and looked at the tricycle parked on the side that was also circled, and there was a chalk-drawn humanoid silhouette on the ground next to the tricycle, which should have been the posture of the deceased lying on the ground when he was found.

"See what's wrong, boss?" Zhang Yanfeng asked in a low voice.

"I saw it, and you must have seen it."

Zhou Ze didn't think that an old criminal policeman would be worse than himself.

In fact

The course of the case is already very clear,

You can even make up the picture at that time clearly.

The old woman rode home on her tricycle about half-past twelve.

Then a black shadow rushed up from behind with a brick and hit the old woman who was riding, and the old woman fell out of the car and died with a whimper.

The speed of the old man riding the tricycle is very slow, and the adult catches up with a slight sprint.

"It's a country road area, there are no cameras, and since it's late at night, the probability of witnesses to the case is low."

Saying,

Zhang Yanfeng said solemnly:

"And most importantly, all this, will it be too much of a coincidence?"

Zhou Ze nodded, yes, it's too much of a coincidence.

Yesterday, I went to the scene of throwing the corpse with Lao Zhang 16 years ago, and saw this old woman, and when I turned around, the old woman was immediately killed.

He is not Conan, and he does not have the aura of dead man attributes wherever he goes.

Although there is no direct evidence, instinctively, people can't help but think about the two cases together.

"What time is it today?" Zhou Ze asked.

"August 16th." Zhang Yanfeng replied.

"Yesterday was the 15th, when did the corpse dumping case happen sixteen years ago?" Zhou Ze asked.

That case is something that Zhang Yanfeng has never given up, so almost all the information about that case is imprinted in his mind, and at this time, he replied directly without turning over the file:

"The neon was found in ......

Ahem,

RF was discovered on September 1, 02, and after that, through investigation, it is known that the first person to pick up meat and take it home was on August 17, 02. ”

"August 17, August 15." Zhou Ze pondered silently repeatedly, and then said: "August 17 is the earliest known day when the body parts were found, but the time when the deceased was killed should be a little further prerequisite. ”

"Do you mean that?"

"Yesterday, it was the 15th, and the 12-year-old case also happened in August, is it possible that yesterday was actually the 16th anniversary of the deceased in the corpse crushing case?"

Zhang Yanfeng's face twitched,

He didn't feel that Zhou Ze was far-fetched and talking nonsense,

Because this kind of possibility is really big.

The murderer likes to return to the scene of the crime and crowd in the crowd of melon-eating people to watch the lively observation, which has almost become a law.

It's like a person who likes to look back and look down at the poop they pulled out after standing up after pooping.

Zhang Yanfeng's face twisted suddenly, his breathing became a little shorter, and his fingers began to tremble, this was because of anger,

"That said, most likely, yesterday the murderer went there not long after we left.

even

Maybe when we're there,

The murderer has also rubbed shoulders with us! ”

Lao Zhang's fists immediately clenched,

If the murderer really passed by himself yesterday,

It's really a humiliation,

A humiliation to one's profession!

"You investigate here first, maybe, we are thinking too much, how can there be such a coincidence in this world, right?"

Zhang Yanfeng nodded with some difficulty, and then said: "I really hope that it is him, sixteen years ago, because of the limited conditions, he was able to get away with it for so many years, if it was him who killed him this time, I would definitely not let him escape again." ”

Zhou Ze reached out and patted Zhang Yanfeng's shoulder, and then walked out.

Lao Dao immediately followed, and the two got into the car.

Lao Dao sat in the driver's seat, started the train, and asked, "Boss, are you going back to the bookstore?" ”

"No, go to the Little Stone Bridge."

It didn't take long for

The car drove into the small road where Zhou Ze and Lao Zhang came yesterday.

got out of the car,

Zhou Ze sat down on the road.

vaguely remember,

Yesterday I was joking with the old woman who sold newspapers,

People ask themselves if they have dropped something, come back and look for it,

I also jokingly replied: Yes, it was a few pieces of meat.

"Boss, this is the scene of the corpse dumping case that Officer Zhang said sixteen years ago?"

"Hmm."

"Tsk."

Lao Dao began to look around.

But sixteen years have passed, and for a big city, sixteen years is enough to change dramatically.

Why did the old woman die,

Is it really the murderer of the corpse shredding case from sixteen years ago who has reappeared and started to commit crimes?

Then why did he kill this old woman?

Zhou Ze licked his lips,

In fact

There is another thing that Zhou Ze noticed,

Shouldn't you go to the street to sell newspapers, and you have to find a place with high foot traffic to set up a stall, why would that old woman set up a stall on this path in the middle of the night?

This is not logical, the old man who lives alone from the son of the family comes out to sell newspapers, it should be to subsidize the family, and it must be the first element to sell more newspapers.

"Boss, what you told Police Officer Zhang before, when you came yesterday, the murderer may have also come? This is too coincidental, after all, sixteen years have passed, maybe the murderer has already died. ”

Zhou Ze didn't answer,

but to raise his head,

Looking at the fence next to the path,

Behind the fence is an old apartment building.

Zhou Ze's whole person was suddenly stunned,

It's like a bolt of lightning slices through my mind,

Is there still a possibility,

That is,

murderer

For the past 16 years, living in this dormitory?

When he and Lao Zhang came here last night,

The murderer,

In fact, standing behind the window of a room on a certain floor,

gaze

Looking over here?
