Chapter 31: Cutting off the face and reporting the case

There has been a notorious perverted murderer in the history of Chinese crime, that is, the silver face-cutter, and all public security policemen over the age of 40 have heard of this serial murderer. However, the police spent countless manpower and financial resources, and after several years, the case has never been solved, and the silver face cutter is still at large.

The Zhongyuan City police reported the case to the Ministry of Public Security, and Vice Minister Bai Jingyu attached great importance to the case and urgently convened a meeting of the members of the special case team.

Su Mei said: Could it be that the silver face-cutter committed the crime again?

Bai Jingyu said: At that time, the fingerprints of all men with household registration in Baiyin City had already been experienced, including those who lived temporarily. So far, the police do not even know the name of the murderer, and a wanted warrant cannot be issued, so it is possible that this person has fled to other places and wandered around the country to commit crimes, and he has been committing crimes for more than ten years.

Painting the dragon said: It's not like the modus operandi of the silver face-cutting man, you know, he kills people without leaving a living mouth.

Su Mei said: This woman was cut off her face and died in the courtyard of the criminal police team, it is too strange, she ran to the criminal police team to report the case, or did someone send her there?

Hualong said: The victim is dying, and it is unlikely that he will report the case himself.

Bao Chu said: If she encounters an enthusiastic stranger, she should be sent to the hospital, instead of letting her go to the police alone. Besides, there are not many such kind-hearted people now, and no one dares to help the old lady when she falls. Then there is only one possibility left -

Professor Liang took over and said: The murderer cut off her face, and then sent her to the gate of the criminal police compound and asked her to go to the police.

Some daring murderers provoke and humiliate the police. A convict in the United States escaped from prison four days before he was released and smashed a police car; A group of football hooligans in the United Kingdom, dissatisfied with the police enforcement, collectively mailed feces to the police department. The famous "Zodiac Killer" would send a letter containing a code to the police after every crime, showing off his murder history, and even sending the deceased to humiliate the police in blood, and leaving a star pattern at the end of the letter, claiming that as long as he could decipher the code, he could know his true identity. However, the series of cases committed by the "Zodiac Killer" has not been solved so far, becoming one of the largest unsolved homicide cases in American history.

There has been no snow in Zhongyuan City for three years, and the first snow finally fell this year, snowflakes are flying all over the sky like white butterflies, and the citizens see the long-lost snowflakes, all of them are happy, ready to have a peaceful and wishful Spring Festival. However, a vicious case caused an uproar that cast a shadow over the city.

Rumors among the citizens that the murderer killed a woman, cut off her face, and threw the body at the door of the city criminal police brigade.

It is a great irony that the criminal police carried out an on-site investigation in the compound of the criminal police team, which was supposed to be the department investigating crimes, but now it has become a murder scene.

The murderers unscrupulously teased the police and were extremely arrogant.

Trace experts found traces of the victim's lying posture and the indentation of the plastic bag thrown on the snow on the snow at the wall on the side of the compound gate, as well as an obvious knee crawling mark, which did not find the footprints when he came, and the traces of the lying position in the snow showed signs of ablation, which indicates that the victim had been lying here for a period of time. The main task of trace inquest is to discover, fix, extract and preserve all kinds of image traces and severance traces related to criminal cases, and to eliminate traces that are not related to the case.

From these traces of the scene, the police can deduce the horrific scene at that time:

The assailant drove the victim outside the walls of the police compound, where the assailant may have thought that the victim was dead and deliberately chose to dump the body. The assailant pushed the victim out of the car, threw a black plastic bag containing frozen skin at her, and quickly fled the scene by car. The victim lay on her side in the snow for a while, perhaps waking up from a coma due to pain, she struggled to get up and walked into the courtyard of the criminal police brigade, where she eventually died.

The deputy head of the Zhongyuan City Criminal Police Brigade reported to the special case team that had rushed to assist in the investigation that the identity of the victim had not yet been ascertained, and that he was about 30 years old, dressed fashionably, and had a plump body.

Su Mei exclaimed: This woman's psychological quality is strong enough, I really admire her.

Bao Chu said: Sister Xiaomei, what do you admire her, I rarely hear you praise others.

Su Mei said: After she got up, she didn't forget to pick up the plastic bag on the ground.

The dragon said: Because the bag contains her face.

The deputy captain said: You have come all the way, eat first, do you want to hit it?

Professor Liang said: Let's go and see the face first.

The female corpse was lying on the cold coroner's table, and an experienced old forensic doctor had just performed a partial autopsy and had not yet made a full autopsy report. On the table next to it was a glass case for experiments, and the frozen skin had melted and soaked in blood. The old forensic doctor is using the lectin test to determine the blood type of the deceased and the composition of the test water, hoping to find clues from the water quality that can be used to solve the crime.

According to the medical examiner, based on the shape of the ice, it can be concluded that the killer threw the cut skin into a round container, such as a basin. The water in the basin froze and froze the skin, and the murderer put the round ice cubes into a plastic bag.

The deceased was fully clothed on the outside, but his underwear was half-faded and his buttocks were exposed. The victim was menstruating when the sanitary napkin stuck to her underwear fell off, and when she struggled, the bloody sanitary napkin moved to the inner thigh. The murderer wanted to commit sexual assault, but for unknown reasons he stopped the act and helped the deceased lift his pants. The deceased had deep marks on his wrists left by the handcuffs, which the police were all too familiar with and could be seen at a glance.

The deceased had bleeding under the scalp and a slight fracture of the skull, which could be determined by a technical test of the shape of the wound to be caused by the blow of the handle of a Type 92 pistol.

Draw the dragon and pull out the match

The gun said: Damn, I used the Type 92, this is a police gun. There are still handcuff marks on the deceased's wrists, could it be that our colleagues did it?

The old forensic doctor said: I don't dare to draw such a conclusion, it involves firearms, and it is possible that the police committed the crime, so the nature of the case is serious.

Professor Leung said: In what state was the deceased cut off his face?

The old forensic doctor said: a state of coma due to suffocation.

Professor Liang said: What is the cause of suffocation? Stunned with your hands, or strangled with something?

The old forensic doctor said: I think it should be a plastic bag put on her head and sealed to cause suffocation.

Su Mei patted her chest and said: She is very lucky, if she is awake, it hurts so much when she cuts her face.

Bao Shu asked: What are the characteristics of the knife edge?

The old forensic doctor said: The murderer should have used an ordinary knife, nothing special. Cutting the skin of the face is a bit like peeling an apple, and the person with the knife will feel a sense of accomplishment in cutting the whole peel. This man is a layman, and if it were me, he would have peeled his face more perfectly, like a mask. The killer did not know what to do with the skin around the eye sockets, and the cheeks were cut off entirely, leaving the victim's cheekbones exposed and bones on his forehead. No wonder Xiao Tang on duty was stunned, this young man used to be a police officer (economic police), and he was not long after he was transferred.

The dragon said: Don't mess with the forensic doctor.

Su Mei smiled and said: Do you think of the female forensic doctor who went up the tree?

The painting dragon said: Haha, those girls are too tough, and the small bag should be more memorable to others.

Bao Chu smirked and said: I think of another case we solved, the case of the fur man.

The old forensic doctor looked at the face of the female corpse and said, "It's miserable, worse than the last time I saw a person who was disfigured by sulfuric acid."

Su Mei said: Those women who have facial plastic surgery have to be strong for the love of beauty.

Hualong said: Daughter-in-law, you don't need it, your disfigurement is equivalent to plastic surgery, haha.

Su Meijiao snorted in disgust, picked up a cup of tea made by the old forensic doctor, and wanted to splash it on the painting dragon. The painting dragon hid behind Professor Liang, smiling and dodging left and right, but was finally drenched in soup.

Professor Leung asked: What was the cause of death?

The old forensic doctor said, "Guess what.

Su Mei said: Excessive blood loss?

The old forensic doctor said: She was scared to death by herself.

That night, the snow on the ground had not melted, the moon was cold and the stars were cold, the street in front of the criminal police compound was empty, and the victim woman was pushed out of the car and woke up from a coma, she carried the black plastic bag, which contained her own face, and then walked into the criminal police compound with great difficulty. Walking to the window of the duty room, she stopped, and saw her face devouring herself on the glass. The victim, who had a pre-existing cardiovascular disease, died of shock when she saw her horrified face being skinned.
