Chapter 2: The Scene of the Crime

Long Ze narrowed his eyes as black as ink, staring at the photos of the physical evidence related to the two cases, and a message immediately flashed in his mind, the crime scene was similar, the murderer's murder methods were similar, and there was one thing in common, the deceased were all killed while eating takeaway!

Takeaway? Long Ze cast his eyes on the lunch boxes discarded by everyone in the trash can...... Suddenly, the landline on the table exploded rapidly, Zhao Xiaobing grabbed the phone and listened, and hurriedly looked up at Long Ze.

"Boss, it's the director......"

Long Ze walked over quickly and picked up the phone.

"Director!"

"Long Ze, did you bring it to you? The bureau attaches great importance to this case, and two similar cases have occurred in a row in more than a month, which are of a very bad nature, and now I give you this task, and you must solve the case in a short period of time!"

"Yes, I will definitely find a way to solve the case in a short time......"

Before Long Ze's words were finished, the director hung up the phone, and there was only a string of busy beeps left in the telephone receiver.

Long Ze put down the phone, directly picked up the car key and threw it to Zhao Xiaobing, "Let's go, go to the scene of the crime and have a look!"

This remote community looks like a tube building built in the 90s, gray and abrupt, and the community is also dilapidated. Several old men and women sat at the base of the wall basking in the sun, pointing at the floor where the crime occurred.

After Long Ze inspected for a week, he and everyone poured into the corridor. The hallway was a little dim, there was not even a light, and the staircase was covered with dust stains and a lot of messy footprints.

A cordon was drawn at the door of room 401 on the fourth floor, and the door was wide open. The case happened a day ago, and the opposite resident had moved to the empty house downstairs, saying that he would not dare to go home until the murderer was caught, for fear of being implicated. Long Ze sneered, it is understandable that the people who live here are old factory workers, who have worked hard all their lives to support the wages that cannot be sustained by death or hunger, who would have thought that it could be related to the murder.

Passing through the cordon, the 50-square-meter two-bedroom apartment looks cramped and cluttered, and the living room has almost no electrical appliances except for a television set that can be called an antique. A low coffee table was covered with grease stains, and according to the photos taken at the scene, the coffee table should have been scattered takeaway packaging and drink bottles, but now it has been returned to the physical evidence room of the police station as physical evidence.

Long Ze narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at the most conspicuous place in the room, on the blue-gray dusty concrete floor, a large pool of dark red marks, and a human figure with curved limbs circled with a white marker.

Long Ze squatted down, stared at the location of the deceased's death, and restored the scene, the deceased should have his head facing the direction of the north hall, his feet facing the direction of the south bedroom, his face down, and he was bleeding profusely on the ground prone to the ground.

The bedding in the bedroom was messy, the deceased's outer clothes and underwear were thrown on the ground under the bed, and a pair of rubber slippers were thrown in the corner, which indicated that the deceased was naked before his death, and was sleeping or resting in bed, and the murder suddenly broke into the room, and the deceased did not have time to put on his underwear, or even the slippers that were thrown aside, and he was killed in a hurry and unprepared!

So how did a homicide sneak into the room without alerting the victim resting in bed? The old building did not have an iron security door, only a wooden door panel, and an ordinary iron lock was placed outside the door, and the interior was used as an indoor security lock with an iron latch.

When you go out, you use a regular iron lock, and if there is someone in the house, you will use a latch to lock the door from the inside.

Long Ze turned his head to stare at the latch on the door, there was no trace of destruction or prie, could it be that the murder directly pushed the door in? So what about his relationship with the deceased...... It must be close.

"Team Dragon, all the physical evidence has been collected by the on-site investigators to the Physical Evidence Section, and I don't think there are any useful clues here!"

Zhao Xiaobing took off the white gloves on his hands and slammed them on the palms of his hands, they did not enter the crime scene for the first time, according to the procedure, valuable clues have been collected by the investigators. Long Ze nodded, and cast his blazing gaze on the bedroom.

At this time, He Weiqi, who came out of the bathroom, glanced at Zhao Xiaobing with a calm face,

"Clues don't come out on the surface for you to spot at a glance, and clues aren't just visible with your eyes!"

Dropping these words, He Weiqi's eyes casually swept across Long Ze's back, turned around and went to the kitchen again. Although Long Ze didn't look back, he could feel the disdain and distrust from He Weiqi, he didn't stay in the Criminal Investigation Brigade for a long time, and he was young, so he was exceptionally promoted to acting captain, and it was indeed difficult to convince the public without making some achievements.

Pressure is the driving force, He Weiqi's words are not unreasonable, Long Ze sank his mind and searched the bedroom again, the bedding on the bed was stained, exuding a smell of sweat, and there was only a pillow, a quilt, and judging from all the items placed, the deceased was a bachelor!

After reading this, when Long Ze was still struggling with the question of how the murderer entered the room, he slowly stood up, but collided with Zhao Xiaobing, who had just come in from behind, and fell to the ground with a thud, and his handsome face came into close contact with the cement floor.

Zhao Xiaobing stuck out his tongue and hurriedly reached out to pull him.

Seeing this, He Weiqi leaned his back against the door frame, and said sarcastically: "Oops, it's a pity that the dragon team is full of muscles, it turned out to be an embroidered pillow, so untouched!"

Zhao Xiaobing grinned awkwardly, Long Ze's size was half a head taller than him, and he couldn't pull him up after a few pulls.

"Dragons, why are you so heavy? Didn't you really fall and hurt yourself?"

Seeing that after pulling for a long time, Long Ze's body became closer and closer to the ground, his face was almost attached to the dusty cement floor, and his eyes were staring at the bed, which scared Zhao Xiaobing. Long Ze's other identity is a member of the police force, but everyone knows it, I am obedient, if he really breaks and disfigures the eldest young master or something, how much money does he have to pay to have plastic surgery?

"Don't move, creep, get the evidence bag!"

Long Ze's voice was a little excited, he shook off Zhao Xiaobing's arm, tightened his white gloves, put his hand into a foot under the bed, and took out a shiny rhinestone button.

Zhao Xiaobing immediately took out the physical evidence bag and opened it, waiting for him to put the button in.

"Windfall, windfall, Dragons, my collision is quite valuable!"

Long Ze ignored him, staring carefully at the buttons in the bag, the deceased was a twenty-eight-year-old bachelor who worked as a worker in a machinery factory, judging from his age, work and daily habits, it was unlikely that he would use such buttons.

At this time, the fat boy came out of another small bedroom to report, and found no valuable clues. He Weiqi also nodded and reported, "There is only one kitchen knife for cutting vegetables in the kitchen, and no other knives have been found, and this guy is lazy enough, the kitchen knives are rusty!"

"Well, the murder weapon was not found, it is possible that the murderer brought the murder weapon to commit the murder! Wrap up the team, let's go to the Physical Evidence Section to see the other physical evidence!"
