Some cold sweat oozed from his back, so many years of criminal police career made him develop a sharp intuition like a blade, at this time, intuition told him that Hu Lai at this time was not Hu Lai in the last second.

Hu Lai's brain instantly captured the scene and people in front of him, and analyzed them as quickly as possible.

The bar, the venue is large and has a dance floor, which means that it is a noisy bar. The clock on the wall shows that it's now half past nine. It's very strange to open the door at this point in time, generally there is only the boss or security guard who has the key to the bar, and this woman is not a security guard at first glance, so it is very likely that the boss or the boss lady.

There is wine in front of him, there are lip prints on the wall of the wine glass, drinking is talking about things, drinking with Guo Bai in the bar at half past nine, it must be related to the case.

Xu Long's case. Xu Long has a younger sister named Xu Hui, who opens a bar in Hope City, it seems that this is Xu Hui.

The smell of whiskey kept wafting into her nose, and Hu Lai couldn't stand it anymore, so she pushed the glass aside, she had always been unconscious with a drop of wine.

Now the problem is that Guo Bai can't run to the bar in the morning, unless he knows in advance that there are people here. If you want to be interrogated, why not go directly to the police force? He's here to find something, or to confirm something.

The most important thing is why the barlady appeared at the bar counter at half past nine, with the wiping cloth at hand showing signs of new use, and a whiskey glass next to the cloth, indicating that she was wiping the glass just now.

A person, an acquaintance, had just finished drinking here, and discussed certain things with her, something intimate that could only be discussed between two people in a space that would not be disturbed.

Xu Hui saw the other party pushing the wine glass aside and asked, "What's wrong with Officer Hu?" ”

"How is the relationship between Boss Xu and her husband?" Hu Lai asked.

Xu Hui's expression froze for a moment, and after she came to her senses, her nose was a little red, and she replied, "My husband and I have been separated for three years, and I have always been alone. ”

Guo Bai looked at Hu Lai and watched her continue to ask.

Hu Lai lowered his head, as if he remembered something sad, and when he raised his head again, his face was already full of vicissitudes, "Really?" Boss Xu, you don't have to be nervous, in fact, my husband and I have been divorced for a long time, and he has been domestic violence against me before the divorce, and now that he is divorced, he still refuses to let me go......"

Guo Bai's reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately understood that this person was looking for resonance and flaws in the other party.

"Officer Hu, you're a policeman." Xu Hui frowned and leaned forward.

Hu Lai's eyes were red, and his hands were clenched tightly, "What can the police do, he's just a scoundrel, but it's okay, now I have met ......"

Her eyes glanced at Guo Bai, the other party obviously didn't expect the plot to develop like this, he could only give Xu Hui an expression of wanting to talk.

Xu Hui understood the "relationship" between these two people in an instant, she took a deep breath and comforted: "With a caring person by your side, no matter how bitter it is, it's good." ”

"Where's Boss Xu? Is there a caring person? ”

Hu Lai caught the change in her expression for a moment, and the moment her words fell, Xu Hui's eyes obviously remembered someone.

Coming out of the bar, Hu Lai noticed that the door had been smashed, and she followed Guo Bai's footsteps and got into the car. On the dashboard was an open box of cranberry biscuits, two of which were left, and the greasy smell made her dizzy.

Guo Bai started the car, about to go to the scene of the crime again, he glanced at her, saw her thoughtful appearance, and disturbed her loudly.

"Did you draw any conclusions about that just now?"

Hu looked at the road ahead and asked, "Have you noticed the pinch marks on her neck?" ”

When Xu Hui leaned forward just now, Hu Lai noticed the blue and purple pinch marks on her neck that were blocked by the loose sweater collar, and the distance between the two sides showed that it was a man's pinch marks, and it was not long.

Xu Hui's temples, close to the hairline, have shallow traces of surgical sutures, and the degree of healing is at least three years, and for women, injuries in that place usually appear in domestic violence.

It seems that Xu Hui is a victim of domestic violence, and the reason why she is separated rather than divorced is because her husband does not agree. Her husband would often come to harass and blackmail her, and would continue to beat her. Guo Bai analyzed.

"Moreover, Boss Xu has a caring person who leaves before we go in." Hu Lai added.

"Huh?"

"Very few girls usually drink pure whiskey, and the wipes and whiskey glasses indicate that it was a man who made her appear there at half past nine, and the two of them chose a time that would never be disturbed, and they were talking about very private matters."

"That's why you deliberately said me and you...... You're watching her reaction. Guo Bai suddenly realized, he thought that this girl was a bad taste, so he said......

"She remembered some man in that moment, a man who had made her already dependent." Hu Lai nodded, looked at the traffic lights one after another in front of him, and made a decision lightly, "If you go to the bar again tonight, you will have unexpected gains." ”

The scene of the crime is on Lijing Road, which is outside the city center, and the green belt on both sides has been well maintained, and there will be a square drainage ditch every 150 meters on the ground next to the green belt, and the mouth of the ditch is sealed with horizontal and vertical iron bars.

Xu Long's body had already been transported to the forensic physician of the criminal police team, and the scene was still blocked by a police cordon, Hu Lai drilled under the cordon, and there was a large brown mark where the body fell, indicating that the blood had been there.

She stood next to the brown pool, carefully observed the shape, and asked, "Is the forensic report out?" ”

"Not yet." Guo Bai stood next to the green belt, staring at a certain branch and leaf, where a branch was broken, showing a very strange posture.

Hu Lai subconsciously raised her wrist to look at the time, only to find that there was no watch in her hand, she withdrew her hand and put her hands in her pockets, "If it was in my police force, the forensic doctor's resignation report should have been submitted to my desk by now." ”

Guo Bai turned his head and raised his eyebrows at her, "It seems that the work of your police force is very intense. ”

He suddenly remembered that the woman in front of him was not a good person. is known for his long-sleeved dancing, and he is easy to move between various leaders and is favored, killing people with two sides and three knives without seeing blood.

She had been serving as the director of the task force in the neighboring city, and after only half a year, she completely replaced the prestige and status of the team leader, and the team leader was willing to run behind her, and even the entire city bureau obeyed her. He heard that this time it was the director who strongly requested it, and he found a relationship with the provincial department before asking the neighboring city to send this treasure over.

Hu Lai smiled back at him, turned to survey the ground, and about five meters from her feet, he obliquely looked over, and there was a shallow, almost negligible shadow.

She walked over to the shadow and crouched down, stretched out her thumb and index finger and compared, about three centimeters long and half a centimeter wide, showing a faint sweeping trace, which would not be found unless she looked at it.

Hu Lai stood up and looked towards the location of the large blood stain, she looked up and thought for a while, and took out her mobile phone from her pants pocket.

Open the weather software, and last night it was a southwest wind in Hope City.

She hurried in the direction she had determined, crouching down by the mouth of the next sewer, a red object hanging from the bar.

"Boss, come on—"

Guo Bai was squatting next to the green belt looking for what he hoped to find, and when he heard a sound coming from afar, he immediately stood up and ran towards the place where Hu came from.

Hu Lai put on his gloves, lifted the 100 yuan bill hanging at the mouth of the sewer with blood stains on the edges, brought it to Guo Bai, and then put it in a bag and sealed it.

Guo Bai thought that she would say something about the low ability of the police force and the need to improve, but he was ready, but Hu Lai didn't mention it at all, just talking about her conjecture.

"If this is the blood of the deceased, then the possibility of financial murder cannot be ruled out, at least the murderer and the deceased have been in contact with money at the scene, I remember that the deceased in the photo is in a supine position, with a fruit knife stuck in his chest, a frontal attack, money is indeed a good anesthetic."

"The wallet and mobile phone were not found on the deceased, and our initial suspicion is that the ...... was taken"

“bingo。” The sound of Hu Lai snapping his fingers interrupted him.

"Boss, you are so smart, the murderer took the deceased's mobile phone because the deceased contacted him before he died!"

I hope that the forensic office of the city criminal police team is on the second floor, thanks to the blessing of the director of the short Qin, the equipment of the forensic office is almost the most sophisticated and high-end in the province, I heard that the director has been on a business trip recently, and it will take a long time to come back.

Forensic doctor Bei Bei had just turned twenty-six years old, and his hair was better than that of the corpse, Hu looked at the unfamiliar stitches on the corpse, and sighed for Guo Bai from the bottom of his heart.

I hope that the past solving rate of the Municipal Criminal Police Team is really supported by this Captain Guo.

Bei Bei was still a little hostile to the women around her, and she didn't have a good impression of this new member who almost fought the old police officer at the meeting.

"Is the forensic report out?" Hu Lai asked the question he had asked Guo Bai again.

Babe stammered visibly, "Yet...... No. ”

"The boss needs your forensic report to catch the murderer as soon as possible, the murder weapon should have been locked, is there a preliminary outline of the other specific contents?" Hu Lai looked sideways.

"Ah, well, the murder weapon was a fruit knife, thirteen centimeters in length and four centimeters in diameter, and no fingerprints were found on the handle. The deceased had fallen backwards, with no signs of resistance, no restraint injuries, and strangely no drug residue was found, as if the whole person was standing there waiting for someone to kill, which was strange. ”

"Did you drink?"

"Huh?"

"Did the deceased drink alcohol before he died?" Hu Lai leaned forward, and she bent down, her eyes locked on the dead man's hand.

"This ...... I didn't pay attention. The female forensic doctor pursed her lips and slurred.

"Can make people lose the ability to resist immediately with a knife...... Hu Lai lowered his head, paced to the door of the forensic office, and suddenly raised her head as if she thought of something, she looked at Bei Bei and said, "I still want to know about his last meal, thank you." ”

Bei Bei saw her turn around to leave, stopped her loudly, and explained: "Actually, it was me and my master before, and he was usually in charge of the main part, but now he has been transferred, so he ......"

"Oh." Hu Lai bowed her head, signaling that she already knew, she turned around and walked out, and closed the door with her hand.

Bei Bei turned around, looked down at the dissecting table, and held her right wrist with her left hand, so that she was not so afraid. She picked up the scalpel and aimed it at the corpse's stomach, drawing a line in the air, but the knife never fell.

Since what happened two years ago, she no longer seems to be able to live with corpses with peace of mind.

Guo Bai stood outside the corridor waiting for Hu Lai, his arms propped up on the railing, looking at the office area below. The office area is a mess, everyone is spinning in a hurry, and the smell of coffee and strong tea fills every corner.

Hu Lai closed the door of the forensic office, walked to his side, and before he could speak, Guo Bai explained.

"Two years ago, Bei Bei dissected a living person with her own hands, and that incident gave her a great psychological shadow, so she became what she is now."

"Living?"

"The dying person, an extremely horrific case, she is also one of the victims," Guo Bai looked at her, his eyes were firmly on her face, and muttered, "There are many victims in that case." ”
