Chapter 2 Drowning on Dry Land

The face of the person on the bed is really a veritable dead face, it is estimated that this person has been dead for a while, and the exposed skin can already see clear corrupt vein nets and turquoise patches, the skin color is dull and lusterless, the face is facing inward, but it is not clear whether the expression is hideous, it is certain that there is no blood around the quilt and the bed.

I didn't come back to live for a few days, and when I came back, I saw a strange man dead in his bed, such a thing is estimated that Du Juan didn't dare to think about it, and felt that it couldn't happen at all, but I didn't expect that it was now really in front of her, even if she was a criminal policeman, she still felt a little faster heartbeat for a while, her ears were buzzing, and even her breathing became much faster.

What she can do now is to identify who this person is and whether she knows someone as soon as possible, of course, in City A, she doesn't know too many people, so to be exact, she just wants to confirm whether the deceased is her roommate's greasy boyfriend.

The cuckoo looked carefully at the side of the male deceased's face, it was not the roommate's greasy boyfriend.

Since it wasn't that greasy man, could we ignore the possibility of another corpse in the other bedroom for the time being, and wait for Tang Hongye to come before making a decision?

The cuckoo was still hesitating, her mobile phone rang, it was Tang Hongye who called, told her that she had arrived downstairs, and asked the cuckoo if she would come up now. Du Juan answered, then withdrew from the room, went to the door to wait for Tang Hongye, and by the way, took out another pair of shoe covers and gloves from his bag, and called the bureau by the way.

Tang Hongye rushed up almost two or three steps in a step, and when he saw the cuckoo standing at the door of the room, wearing gloves on his hands and shoe covers on his feet, his face was even more solemn, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Why did you just get home like this? Is there something going on in the house? ”

Du Juan nodded, she didn't know what to say about this matter now, there was still a little confusion in her mind, so she simply asked Tang Hongye to put on the shoe covers and gloves, and went directly to her room to check the situation.

Tang Hongye had originally considered various possibilities on the way back, but he really didn't expect such a situation, and when he saw the deceased on the cuckoo bed in the house, he was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he remembered and quickly asked the cuckoo: "In addition to telling me, have you contacted the bureau?" ”

"I've already been contacted, and I'll shoot someone over there to deal with the scene." The cuckoo nodded at him.

Tang Hongye sighed, looked at Du Juan's bedroom that was messed up, and then looked at the two shadows under Du Juan's eyes that there was no way to ignore, and he knew that Du Juan's wish to rest well for an afternoon and sleep well with his head covered was destined to be unfulfilled.

"Otherwise," Tang Hongye took out the car keys and handed them to Du Juan, "You go downstairs, go to my car to rest and rest, and take advantage of the fact that the people in the bureau have not yet arrived, first hurry up and sleep for a while, turn on the heater, otherwise it will be cold." ”

"No," the cuckoo shook his head, "I was interrupted by this sudden situation, I don't feel sleepy now, I just have a little headache, I was still thinking about hurrying up to find a house, I thought maybe it would be too late, the boat would naturally go straight to the bridge, but how could I have thought that such a thing suddenly appeared, there was no warning at all, and my house became a murder scene!" It really caught me off guard. ”

"No one, you don't have to worry about this, isn't there still me, just go to me!" As soon as Tang Hongye heard that Du Juan was worried about this matter, he immediately opened his mouth, and after finishing speaking, he was afraid that Du Juan would misunderstand his meaning, so he hurriedly added, "Even if you just take it as a short time, otherwise you can't go to the duty room with your personal belongings, right?" Settle down on my side first, and what you want to do next, I will definitely respect your opinion, and I will definitely be responsible for what you need my help with. ”

Of course, Du Juan knew that Tang Hongye had good intentions, and she was not a person who did not distinguish between time and occasion, so she nodded and thanked Tang Hongye, and she didn't have any intention to say anything superfluous.

Tang Hongye saw that Du Juan agreed, and knew that she was upset now, so he didn't say anything, standing behind Du Juan, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

There is no way, although he also feels that the room rented by the cuckoo has inexplicably become a murder scene, which is really a bad feeling, but when he thinks that the erroneous cuckoo also agreed to borrow it from his side temporarily, he feels as if there is a little snickering.

It didn't take long for the people in the bureau to arrive, and the colleagues of the criminal technology immediately began to take pictures and collect evidence at the scene, and the forensic doctor also came, preparing to conduct a preliminary examination of the deceased, and the other people who came over were Tang Li, Huang Shuai and Yin Mei, listening to Tang Li's meaning that the others were not available at that time, he had to take Huang Shuai and Yin Mei together.

"Cuckoo, is the deceased someone you know?" After greeting the cuckoo, Tonic asked.

"I don't know, I'm sure, I haven't even seen it." The cuckoo shook his head and replied truthfully.

Tang Li nodded, and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "That's good, what Team Yang means is that if the deceased has nothing to do with the cuckoo, you can participate in the investigation, and if there is a relationship, you still have to choose to avoid it." ”

Tonic is not a person who talks a lot, and his emotions on weekdays are still relatively restrained, although he did not directly express anything in his words, but Tang Hongye, who has worked with him for a long time, still understands the subtext that Tonic did not say - fortunately, the deceased has nothing to do with Du Juan, so that Du Juan and Tang Hongye do not need to deliberately avoid it, they can act as the main force in the investigation, and the team is not so surplus at the moment, if Tang Hongye and Du Juan cannot participate, The level of Huang Shuai and Yin Mei is not so reassuring.

"The two of us haven't been on a business trip and living in the duty room for the murder of Xian and Yu in the past few days, and it's finally over, and we can put it back to rest for half a day, but who would have thought that this kind of thing would happen to Cuckoo!" Tang Hongye shook his head and sighed to Tang Li, "Now you don't have to rest, the cuckoo is amazing this time, one person plays multiple roles!" The person who reported the crime was her, the tenant of the place where the crime occurred was her, and the person who investigated the case was still her! ”

Tang Li also looked at Du Juan with some sympathy, followed Tang Hongye's words, and said to Du Juan: "Although you can participate in the investigation as usual, we still have to make a record of what should be done in a while." ”

Du Juan nodded hurriedly, this is naturally no problem, she understands the process to go, although the fact that there was a murder in her residence also makes her a little confused, but she is not so confused that she can't even remember the work process and work content.

"By the way, there is another room in this house, which is occupied by a couple, the woman lives permanently, and the man does not come occasionally, I came back today until now, the door is also closed, quiet, and I can't be sure what kind of situation is in the house." The cuckoo remembered his worries and hurriedly spoke to the others.

Tang Hongye discussed it with Tang Li and decided that it would be better to open the door and take a look for the sake of safety.

Considering that the guest in the room was a young woman, although there was no sound in the room for a long time, no one dared to be sure whether the person was in it, so Tang Hongye was just accompanied, and the task of knocking on the door still fell on Du Juan, who knocked on the door repeatedly for a while and no one answered, so he gave up the plan to continue knocking on the door, turned his head and discussed with Tang Hongye behind him.

"What to do? Call the lockpicker? She asked Tang Hongye.

"It's not that troublesome," Tang Hongye shook his head, he took out his wallet from his chest pocket, took out a card from it, inserted it along the crack of the door, and unlocked the door in a few clicks.

Du Juan didn't know that Tang Hongye would make such a move before, and looked at him with some surprise: "You still know how to pick the lock?" I guess that's how the door to my room was opened! ”

"This kind of lock, it's too easy to open it," Tang Hongye put the card away, "When I used to study, I sometimes went early, and I didn't have the key to the class, so I went in like this, and I tried it repeatedly." ”

The cuckoo pushed open the door and looked into her roommate's room, this room was more spacious than hers, there was a double bed inside, there was no one on the bed, there was no one on the ground, except for all kinds of clothes and sundries and even garbage piled up everywhere, there was nothing unusual, I just didn't know if there was something broken in the house, all kinds of smells were mixed together, and the air smelled very unfresh.

"Are you roommates or pigs?!" Tang Hongye frowned in disgust, "It's really hard for you to be able to share a house with such a person for so long!" ”

"This is thanks to our job, fortunately busy enough, and not often at home, otherwise I guess I wouldn't have been able to stand it a long time ago." The cuckoo sighed, then closed the door of the house and returned to the living room.

The on-site investigation over there was still in progress, Huang Shuai and Yin Mei were helping on the side, and looked at Du Juan from time to time, as if they were a little worried about her because the deceased had been found in her residence, but here Tang Li was still waiting to make a note for Du Juan, so they were not embarrassed to come over and say anything to Du Juan directly.

Cuckoo was quite lucky, it was really annoying enough to suddenly encounter such a thing, and she didn't want to be asked again and again before she figured out anything.

Tonic and Cuckoo sat down in the living room, Cuckoo explained in detail how he found the abnormal situation in the room, Tonic silently made a record, because Cuckoo had been busy with Xian Heyu's case before, and he had indeed not been home for many days, which was obvious to many people in the bureau, so she naturally did not have any suspicion of committing a crime, and the things that Tonic needed to ask were automatically reduced by more than half, and Cuckoo had also said before that she didn't know, I hadn't even seen the deceased, so I didn't know much about her, and the only thing I had to ask was about her unreliable roommate, and her roommate's greasy boyfriend.

"What the hell are the two of them doing, I still don't know, those two people usually don't interfere with the river water with me, and they don't treat each other very well, so they basically don't talk." Cuckoo explained the situation of the two people to Tang Li roughly, and she didn't say too much, after all, she really didn't know much about the situation over there, only subjective impressions, and this subjective impression was really bad, she was also afraid that talking too much would make people preconceived and interfere with judgment, but one thing she was sure of, "The deceased was able to enter my room without my knowledge, which must have something to do with the two of them, After all, although the hidden lock on the door of the room is relatively simple and can be easily opened, the lock on the entrance door is not open with a casual dial, and someone still lets someone in. ”

"Well, those two must be investigating." Tonic looked at the transcript in his hand, "Nothing else, let's see what the forensic doctor has to say in a moment." ”

Du Juan and Tang Hongye nodded, and also went to the door of Du Juan's room to check the situation, at this time, the colleagues of the criminal technology had already extracted traces such as fingerprint footprints in the room, and also completed the license plate of the scene, the forensic doctors were examining the body, the quilt on the bed was lifted, and the body of the male deceased was exposed to everyone's sight at a glance.

The male deceased was wearing only a pair of underwear on his body, when the cuckoo saw this scene, he didn't mention how disgusting and panicked in his heart, this is a murder, if this person did not die, in his own bed, covered with his own quilt and slept for I don't know how long, and then quietly cleaned up, restored to the original state, and sneaked away, then when he came back, he couldn't find anything, and he lay down and slept under the quilt as usual......

Just thinking about it, the cuckoo couldn't help but shiver and got goosebumps all over his body.

After a while, Forensic Doctor Liu stood up straight, as if he had already made a rough judgment.

"Forensic Doctor Liu, how's it going? How long has this man been dead? What was the cause of death? Tang Hongye asked.

"The age of the deceased should be twenty-five to thirty years old, judging from the degree of decomposition on the surface of the corpse, the time of death should be three to four days, but considering that the electric heater in this room has been turned on and the temperature is relatively high, so we think that the actual time of death should be about forty-eight hours, as for the cause of death......" Forensic Doctor Liu smiled at them with a slightly strange expression, "I said that he drowned, do you believe it?" ”
