Qiao Ju looked at Team Xing noncommittally and asked, "Team Xing, you were sent by Bureau Ren to assist in the investigation, your opinion is also very important, you have also seen the situation at the scene, what do you think?" ”

Team Xing didn't give it for nothing, looked at us, turned his head and said: "There are Yoshikawa lines on the neck of the deceased, that is, those scratches, it is generally believed that this is the trace left by his killing, what does Section Chief Meng think about this time?" ”

"We've thought about this, and so did the last deceased." Section Chief Meng immediately said: "We haven't investigated the first deceased, and the family didn't report the case, so it was handled directly as a suicide, and the second deceased and Ding Xingliang both hanged themselves in the kitchen, not high enough, maybe they were left when they hung themselves and grabbed the rope, or maybe they were caught when they were struggling." ”

Team Xing should have felt that what Section Chief Meng said made some sense, so he looked at us, which meant to ask if we had different opinions.

I can't help but say this: "We think it was he who killed, Section Chief Meng obviously made his own analysis of the scene, and we think it is also very reasonable, but we have checked the beam where Ding Xingliang committed suicide, it is wrapped in paper, there is no trace of strangulation on it, and there is no confetti on the ground, which is not logical." ”

My words made Qiao Ju, Section Chief Meng, Team Xing and others stunned, and they should all be a little inclined to commit suicide.

Section Chief Meng quickly said: "There is really some truth, but it is not what you think, kicking randomly, in fact, the process of hanging suicide is very fast, once the neck is strangled and the whole body is suspended in the air, people will not have much strength, and they will not be able to kick a few times." ”

This is obviously saying that we have no experience and have never seen hanging, in fact, we have indeed never seen it, but I heard Huang Lao and Dong Lao say that it is not so simple, and Xing Team also said that it is a very uncomfortable process, and we must struggle in this process.

I was about to speak, but Da Leizi stabbed me in the back and whispered, "Don't say it, it's inexperienced." ”

Da Leizi's voice was not too small, and several people heard it, Qiao Ju immediately shook his head and said: "I can't say that, I haven't seen the process of hanging with my own eyes, but it's not as simple as Section Chief Meng said, this police officer said it is very reasonable, and I also think that the marks on the beam can fully explain the problem." ”

Section Chief Meng heard what Qiao Ju also said, and then nodded, he should know that his statement was a bit far-fetched.

Qiao Ju looked at Team Xing and said: "Since everyone's views are basically the same, then this case needs to be investigated as soon as possible, so as not to make more and more trouble, I will arrange it immediately." ”

Of course, Team Xing knew that our statement was correct, and nodded again and again at this time.

Only then did I say: "Qiao Bureau, we still want to take a look at the file of the previous case, is it convenient?" ”

"Of course that's fine." Qiao Ju nodded and said: "The family of the first case was handled as suicide, and the aftermath was handled directly, and the second case was reported to the police, which also attracted our attention. ”

I can understand that in ordinary suicide cases, especially in villages, if the family thinks that there is a reason for the suicide, they may not report to the police and deal with the aftermath directly.

At this time, it was already dark outside, and Section Chief Meng had just finished arranging manpower, when a shout came from outside the village committee: "Oh no, something's wrong, there's an accident!" ”

We were all taken aback and subconsciously stood up.

A young man who looked to be in his early twenties, although it was cold outside, and he was sweating profusely, he came in and said, "Village Chief He······ Village Chief He hanged himself! ”

"Huh?" We all let out an exclamation almost at the same time.

Qiao Ju quickly frowned and asked, "Where?" At home? ”

"Yes, at home!" The villager gasped and said: "Everyone searched for a day, but they didn't find Village Chief He, and his wife found out at night that she had hanged herself at home." ”

Everyone's faces have changed, and this time it's completely big!

It is said that Shangyao Village is a hanging village, and there have been three cases of hanging suicide in a short period of time, and now it is okay, the village chief has hanged himself, and tomorrow may be who it is, and there will be no one in the village soon.

Qiao Ju said to the young man as he walked: "You take us quickly, you can get in the car faster, the scene is not moving, right?" ”

The young man also said in a panic: "I didn't move when I ran out, and everyone didn't dare to move, Village Chief He's wife was screaming in the yard, go quickly!" ”

We also got into the car and drove to the village behind Qiao Ju and the others, in fact, it was not too far, and driving was better than walking.

When he got into the car, Leng Tong frowned and said: "Now the matter is really big, the village chief also hanged himself, and tomorrow it will not spread all over the province, this is really going to become a hanging village!" ”

"Hmm!" I also frowned helplessly and said: "Let's take a look, Village Chief He's death is a little weird, his wife said that he looked for a day, and finally found it at home, this is not logical, is his wife not at home during the day?" ”

Leng Tong also nodded and said, "Xiaoxiao, this village is also a little weird, why do you use this way to kill people by hanging?" ”

I shook my head, it's really hard to speculate, there are many ways to kill people, and hanging is still more troublesome, I really can't figure out why I deliberately hanged myself, is it to push it to the supernatural event?

At this time, Da Leizi had already stopped the car, pointed to the front and said, "Isn't the front Ding Xingliang's house?" ”

Leng Tong and I only cared about discussing the case, and we didn't look at the situation outside, Da Leizi said, the two of us just took a look, and sure enough, Ding Xingliang's house was dozens of meters away in front of him, but Ding Xingliang's house was on the left side of the road, and Village Chief He was on the right side of the road.

Qiao Ju and the others had already gotten out of the car, the yard was much larger than Ding Xingliang's house, several people were standing in the yard, a middle-aged woman was crying, and a few police officers were also there, they should have been investigating the situation nearby just now and rushed over in time.

The structure of the house is no different from Ding Xingliang's house, that is, it is larger than Ding Xingliang's house, and the frame is much higher, the door is closed in the room on the right, and the door is open in the room on the left.

This should be the village chief He, wearing a blue dress, very tall, looking like he is always one meter eighty-five, there is a bench under his toes, because the light is inside, a long shadow is dragged outside, which can be seen at the door, and the scene is a little crazy.

Qiao Ju, Xing Team, Section Chief Meng and others had already entered, and the three of us hurriedly followed.

Since Village Chief He was carrying the light, his face looked a little gloomy, the tip of his tongue was indeed slightly stretched out, and his eyes seemed to be shining, just like what Team Xing said to us when he came, as if he was staring at us, which made people feel very uncomfortable, or a little fearful.

Qiao Ju frowned and said: "Put the person down first, it should be a long time ago, let the people in our forensic office take a look at the approximate time of death." ”

The police officers immediately came up and put the person down, and there was a person from the forensic office of the county bureau who had not yet returned, and at this time he also came to take a closer look.

Qiao said solemnly: "This is the fourth case, needless to say, it is definitely not a suicide, are people crazy?" ”

We all think the same way, and it is even more nonsense for the hanged ghost to catch the stand-in, which is a deliberate murder by someone.

When the people in the medical examiner's room were examining the body, we followed suit.

After the corpse was put down, it was not as terrifying as when it was hung just now, and it was not backlit, and it was clearly seen that there were two marks on the neck of Village Chief He, one under the Adam's apple, and one at the base of the jaw, that is, the position of hanging.

But the corpse of Village Chief He is not the same as Ding Xingliang's, except for these two traces, there is no so-called Yoshikawa line, I can't help but glance at Leng Tong, this situation is difficult to explain, is it extremely frustrated, did not struggle?

Leng Tong was staring at the corpse and didn't look at me, I denied this idea myself, the two strangulation marks already explained the problem, and it was obviously not suicide.

The person from the county medical examiner's office quickly said: "Judging from the degree of cloudiness of the corpse spots and corneas, the time of death is more than 12 hours, and it should be less than 24 hours. These two strangulation marks are a bit strange, I touched them, and the laryngeal bone was broken, which should not be caused by hanging. ”

Team Xing took a closer look and said: "Your analysis is correct, this is not caused by hanging suicide, there is a slight backward angle, and this trace is not shallow, it should be someone strangled the deceased's neck from behind, resulting in mechanical suffocation death, what do you see?" ”

"yes, I think so too." The person in the medical examiner's office immediately said: "What you said is very likely, otherwise, even if the initial position of the hanging is not accurate, there will be no angle to tilt downward." ”

I thought the same thing in my heart, and at this time I also glanced at Leng Tong, Leng Tong also nodded, and squatted down to take a closer look, and soon motioned for me to squat down too.

I found that Leng Tong was staring at the deceased's right hand, and there was a wound on his middle finger, which was more than an inch long, which should have been cut by something hard, but under the place where the body was hanging, no blood was found dripping.

Since the wound was not very deep, the deceased should have died very quickly, and it was not too surprising that the room was also cold.

Leng Tong pointed to the rope again, and I nodded.

I also saw it just now, this rope is also a green nylon rope, the same color as the rope that Ding Xingliang hanged, even the knot is the same, although it can't be said to be very professional, but it's not the kind of knot that everyone will tie.

Qiao Ju, Xing Team and others had already gone to the room to take a look, and Leng Tong and I also stood up, and Leng Tong whispered, "Does it look like a person did it?" ”

"Well, it's very similar!" I also nodded and said, "The rope is the same, the knot is the same, and the means are the same, let's take a look first, this house seems to be uninhabited." ”

Leng Tong nodded, and together they came to the room next to the kitchen to take a look, they didn't turn on the light just now, and they didn't see anything, only then did they turn on the light and see that except for a bed, it was empty, proving that this room was indeed unoccupied.

I whispered to Leng Tong: "Tongtong, his killing can already be determined, if there was someone at home last night, this should not be the first scene." ”
