Officers came and went, and Ben's quiet hallway was filled with the sound of footsteps.

Xiao Ning took four or five deep breaths, and finally felt more comfortable, so he walked out.

At the end of the twenty-fifth floor, the door was wide open, and police officers in shoe covers were taking pictures or collecting evidence.

The scene inside the door was bleak.

The snow-white walls were now splattered with blood, and even the corner of the high-hanging wedding photo was still dripping bright red liquid.

The fabric sofa in the living room is even more dyed red, and the bouquet of flowers on the coffee table is lying crookedly aside, still vibrant, not withering.

In the middle of the floor, a woman was lying.

This woman is the resident that Zhou Qing said before, and she is also the person who called the police to rob yesterday.

She was lying on the ground, her face in sight, and what should have been a white nightdress on her body had now become a red cloth.

Xiao Ning suddenly thought of a book, which had once written - the blood-stained wedding dress carried all the love and hate of this person.

After examining the body, a police officer who was in charge of surveying the scene turned the woman over.

In an instant, everyone almost vomited.

From behind, her body is just covered in blood, but the front is miserable, and it can even be said to be miserable.

Her stomach was a blur of flesh and blood, and she could see blood flowing out, mixed with fragments of organs such as intestines. And that's not even the scariest part, the woman's entire face was dissected.

That's right, there was only red flesh on her face, and no skin.

Xiao Ning turned his head, and Xu Xingteng couldn't help but run outside and retch.

Even Zhang Yu, who had seen a lot of corpses, was pale for a while, and it took a long time to sort out his emotions and walk up.

He looked at it briefly and said, "The deceased should have been stabbed to death with a sharp weapon, or died of excessive blood loss, and the time of death should not be more than five hours from now." The rest of the information needs to be dissected before we can know. ”

Xiao Ning suddenly thought of the knife, and he asked in a deep voice, "Have you found the murder weapon?" ”

One officer replied, "No." ”

If there is no murder weapon, it should be taken away from the scene by the murderer.

Zhou Qing waved his hand, "Immediately go and adjust the monitoring in the community, from yesterday morning to now." ”

Yoon Zetai asked, "Why from yesterday morning?" ”

The deceased was killed in the afternoon, and it would have been more reasonable to call up the time for this phase.

Xiao Ning took over, "That's to find the person who stole the kitchen knife, maybe he is the murderer." ”

Two hours later, the Interpol Brigade.

There was steaming coffee on the table, and Xiao Ning took a sip of it, warming it from his tongue to his stomach.

Zhou Qing sat next to him, "This case is still handed over to you." I shouldn't have left because of such a big incident, but there are some urgent matters that I need to deal with, and I have to travel for about a week. But don't worry, before I leave, I will arrange everything that should be arranged. You will be the leader of the team from now on, and your words will be equivalent to my words, and no one will not disobey you. ”

With that, he stood up and left the office.

Xiao Ning looked at the others.

Yin Zetai, Xu Xingteng and the others immediately sat up straight, with an expression on their faces as if they were about to go to the battlefield.

He shook his head and said in a low voice, "Go check the surveillance first, and mark all suspicious people." This is especially true in the close period before and after the murder of the deceased. There is also the possibility of moving the video forward to the night before and finding out the suspicious person. ”

In Xiao Ning's opinion, the person who stole the kitchen knife may not be the same as the murderer, and this will not be known until Zhang Yu's autopsy report comes out.

If they were treated as two people for the time being, it is likely that the thief had touched the neighborhood the night before the deceased called the police.

Xiao Ning continued: "By the way, the information of the deceased. ”

"Here." Yin Zetai pushed the folder over, "The deceased's name is Zhang Li, who is currently divorced, and she and her husband divorced five years ago. She also has a daughter, who is currently studying in a high school abroad, and there doesn't seem to be much contact between the mother and daughter. We've contacted them and expect her daughter to be there tomorrow. ”

Xiao Ning didn't speak, and continued to look at the information.

Zhang Li, forty years old, the boss of a listed company, is also a strong woman, and the company's assets should be close to 30 million, no wonder she can afford to send her daughter abroad to study.

As for the residential house in the community where the crime occurred, Zhang Li bought it not long ago, and she had just moved in for no more than a month.

Xiao Ning put down the document and looked at Yin Zetai, "There is also information about her divorced husband, have you found it?" ”

"This hasn't been ...... yet," Yin Zetai finished speaking, and immediately got up to do it.

There was no one in the office, Xu Xingteng coughed lightly, "Boss, I'll go see the progress of Zhang Yu's side." ”

In less than a minute, there was one less person.

Li Ke couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere here, and said with a smile: "What's that...... I went to see the surveillance footage. ”

In fact, everyone, including Xiao Ning, was in a very depressed mood.

Zhang Li's face was peeled off, leaving only flesh and blood, and that picture was really terrifying. Xiao Ning closed his eyes now, and he could still see the scene from time to time.

He leaned back in his chair and reached for his temples.

Nearly three hours have passed since the deceased was found, and there are no clues on his side.

Xiao Ning didn't go home, and was alone on the sofa in the office, and it was like this until morning.

The rest of the Interpol Brigade was busy early, and he was awakened by the sound of the door opening.

Lin Xiyang walked in, still holding breakfast in his hand, and put it directly on the desk, "Get up and eat first, Zhou Qing called me over, the case of skinning people, the murderer is not psychopathic." Otherwise, ordinary people may not be able to accept it. ”

Xiao Ning sat up slowly, first washed up briefly, and then drank the white porridge in one gulp.

After eating half a bowl, he put down his chopsticks, "If it's a vendetta, it's not too much to treat the enemy." Hatred will allow a person to overcome fear in a short period of time, and even break through the limit. ”

"Then how do you know it's a vendetta?" Lin Xiyang retorted: "The possibility that the murderer is a pervert accounts for at least half or more, and what can be reflected by peeling off people's faces is that the murderer wants to continue killing people as his trophies, and there are many other possible reasons." ”

Xiao Ning raised his head to look at her, "Why do you say it's a trophy, in fact, whether it's a finger, a tongue, or even an eyeball, it can be used as a trophy." ”

Lin Xiyang smiled faintly, "Fingers, tongues and eyeballs can't clearly show a person's symbol, but cheeks can." ”
