Chapter 3: Untouchable Killing Intent

All the doors and windows in Han Mo's house were locked, and there was no trace of damage to the door locks. Faced with such a situation, Wang Shen could only come to two conclusions: suicide or murder in a closed room. But as the investigation deepened, the case seemed to be gradually leading in the direction of suicide. The police obtained Han Mo's Weibo account and found that Han Mo posted such a message on Weibo on the night of the crime: My life is gloomy, there are always hungry wolves chasing after me, and death may be an eternal way back. Such a message is undoubtedly a last word in the eyes of Han Mo's fans. And it's full of very valuable information.

Han Mo's life is brilliant in the eyes of others, and what is the reason why Han Mo thinks it is gloomy? Who is the "hungry wolf" mentioned in the message? Wang Shen recorded these two questions in his notebook and marked a big question mark.

What's even more strange is that not long after Han Mo posted that message, a well-known local Sichuan restaurant "Spicy" received a call from Han Mo asking for food delivery. The "spicy" Sichuan restaurant is a reservation system and a membership system. Because Han Mo is a VIP member of the "spicy" restaurant, she can enjoy customized food delivery services. According to the delivery staff of the "Spicy" restaurant, when he delivered the meal ordered by Han Mo to the door of Han Mo's house that night, no one answered when he rang the doorbell many times, and no one answered his phone call to Han Mo. In the end, the delivery person can only turn back. The "Spicy" restaurant specially contacted Han Mo the next day, but he has not been able to get in touch.

Later, according to the forensic doctor's accurate autopsy analysis, Han Mo should have died in the period after ordering the meal. Because Han Mo is a well-known public figure, the police announced the circumstances of Han Mo's death as much as possible. In the end, under multiple investigations, Han Mo's case ended as suicide.

But the details in Xu Xiaolin's novel "Rebirth" overlap too much with Han Mo's case, which attracted the attention of Han Mo's fans back then. Rumors spread for a while.

This kind of speculation is just a lot of people's after-dinner conversation, and you don't have to take it seriously. After a while, this matter will slowly settle down. Lin Su took the new coffee brought by the waiter, took a sip, looked at Wang Shen, and explained his point of view unhurriedly.

Wang Shen looked at Lin Su, smiled, took a sip of coffee, and then slowly shook his head. "No, I also think that Han Mo's case is not as simple as suicide. So this time, I also took the initiative to ask for a review of Han Mo's case and give the public the truth. ”

After hearing Wang Shen say these words, Xu Xiaolin and Lin Su glanced at each other, and their faces showed expressions of surprise. "I remember that you were in charge of Han Mo's case back then. Why is it that now, you have to overturn your original judgment? Xu Xiaolin opened her mouth first, not understanding what the hell Wang Shen was doing.

Wang Shen waved his hand, "It's not accurate to say this, I can only say that I was originally assigned to be responsible for investigating Han Mo's case, but then I received a more urgent task, and the investigation of Han Mo's case was changed." By the time I finished the task at hand, Han Mo had already been identified as suicidal. It wasn't until recently that Han Mo's case came into everyone's field of vision again, and I tried to re-read the file of that year, and I did find a big problem. ”

"I still vaguely remember the original news report, it is said that after the police investigation, all the doors and windows of Han Mo's house were locked, and there was no damage. And there is also evidence from Han Mo's Weibo information before his death, so the possibility of Han Mo's suicide is confirmed. Lin Su said as he turned his body in Wang Shen's direction, his eyes full of doubts. Did you police hide something in the first place? ”

"Nope." Wang Shen shook his head. "The news is all about the actual situation."

In this case, Han Mo's suicide inference is almost a certainty. Could there be a murderer who has the ability to penetrate the wall? Lin Su joked.

"Now I'm not sure if there's a killer who will go through the wall. And, that's why I'm here for you. I would like to invite you to be our police adviser in this case. After Wang Shen finished speaking, he took out two pieces of paper and two pens from the bag he was carrying and put them in front of Lin Su and Xu Xiaolin respectively.

Xu Xiaolin picked up the paper in front of her and looked at it, her eyes widened. "Non-disclosure agreement? Wang Shen, are you sure you're not mistaken? ”

Wang Shen smiled and shook his head. "Actually, this agreement is not as complicated as you think, it's just that for this case, you must keep it secret from the outside world, that's all." Wang Shen paused, took a sip of coffee, and continued to explain: "You have also seen that just because of one of Xu Xiaolin's novels, it has caused a lot of speculation. We also don't want these external factors to affect our investigation of cases. ”

"Wang Shen, you wait. This agreement is not harsh, and now that we put this agreement aside, why do you think we will definitely agree to your request. And we're just writing novels, so how can we help you? Xu Xiaolin interrupted Wang Shen's words and clarified her point of view sharply.

"I'll answer the second question first. Although you are only novelists, your subject matter is suspense novels, and you should be good at analyzing the facts of the case and the psychology of the characters. And as the best-selling mystery novelist today, I think you should be very professional in these aspects. Just like Lin Su said just now, if it is really a fully enclosed secret room murder, then unless the murderer will pass through the wall. This is also a question that I can't figure out, so I need you to analyze a murderer who may 'pass through the wall' according to the clues you have. That's why I'm here for you. As for the first question, it's very simple, the police department will pay you for your help......"

"Do you think we're short of that money right now?" Xu Xiaolin raised her eyebrows and deliberately raised her tone very high. Although Xu Xiaolin's words were said to Wang Shen, she deliberately glanced at Lin Su between her words.

"Naturally, the two great writers will not be short of money. However, as a suspense novelist, you can only immerse yourself in a virtual world for the rest of your life. If there's an opportunity now, you can use your suspense fiction writing skills to help actually solve a real case. Don't you have a little bit of a heart? Wang Shen looked at Xu Xiaolin, and after a few seconds, he set his eyes on Lin Su's body. Lin Su was staring at the agreement at hand intently at the moment, and his slightly frowning brows made him look a little serious.

"Okay, I'm willing to accept this errand." Lin Su replied very crisply, and immediately signed his name on the agreement after speaking. Wang Shen sat aside, a grin on the corner of his mouth, then looked at Xu Xiaolin, and glanced at the agreement again. Xu Xiaolin sighed slightly, picked up the pen on the table, and signed her name.

"I hope our cross-border cooperation will go smoothly this time." Wang Shen put away the two agreements and politely shook hands with Lin Su and Xu Xiaolin. "Now, I'll tell you some of the clues I've gotten. Xiao Lin, I want to ask you something first. Wang Shen leaned forward, sat up straighter, and looked at Xu Xiaolin with a straight face.

Xu Xiaolin just lifted the coffee cup into the air, looked at Wang Shen, and put the cup back on the table. "Why are you so serious all of a sudden, you ask."

"Your novel "Rebirth" has not been serialized yet, what does the phone call of the deceased mentioned in the novel mean?" After listening to Wang Shen's question, Lin Su also turned half of his face around. Facing the stares of the two men, Xu Xiaolin smiled slightly, picked up the coffee cup again, and took a sip of coffee.

"Do I need to recuse myself?" Seeing that Xu Xiaolin didn't speak for a long time, Lin Su said as he got up.

"No, I'll update tonight anyway, so it's okay to let you know sooner. My so-called phone call of the deceased is very simple, it is the recording of the murderer when he ordered a meal before Li Xue's death. After killing Li Xue, the murderer used Li Xue's mobile phone to dial the ordering hotline and played a recording of Li Xue's previous orders. ”

"Did the murderer do this in order to obfuscate the time of death and at the same time create an alibi?" It seems that Wang Shen is also interested in Xu Xiaolin's novels, and he is both serious and engaged when he speaks. Lin Su sat on the side, constantly drinking the coffee in his hand, but there was a look of sudden realization on his face.

"He is worthy of being an excellent criminal investigation captain, and he can guess it." Xu Xiaolin clapped her hands twice, with an appreciative smile on the corner of her mouth.

"And what is the identity of the murderer?" Wang Shen continued to ask.

"What other identity can you have, it's nothing more than a man." Xu Xiaolin coping with it coquettishly. "Is the phone call where Han Mo ordered food the same as the idea of my novel?" Xu Xiaolin's eyes widened as she spoke, as if she was admiring her ability to conceive.

"It's not. I mean, it's not certain right now. Okay, now let's talk about Han Mo's case. I'll start by explaining to you a few things that I find suspicious. The first is the cause of Han Mo's death, he was stabbed in the abdomen and died. But according to the autopsy results, Han Mo was stabbed twice in the same place in the abdomen. ”

"If it's suicide, it's really rare to stab yourself twice." Xu Xiaolin wondered.

"Then if he killed, this is easy to explain, the murderer may be a novice, and after the first stab, he didn't feel at ease and made up the second knife. Or the murderer had a deep grudge against the deceased, and felt that one knife could not relieve his anger, so he made up for the second knife. Lin Su had already taken out his notebook and expressed his opinion after recording the details of Wang Shen just now in the notebook.

"Both speculations are certainly possible. But what makes me strange is not the frequency of two stabs in a row, but the direction of the knife. After Wang Shen finished speaking, he frowned, and then immediately returned to the original state. According to the precise autopsy results, the first of the two knives was stabbed into the deceased's body from top to bottom. The second knife is the exact opposite, piercing the deceased's body from the bottom up. Why do you think there are two completely different puncture techniques for the same wound? ”
