Chapter VI: Victims

Zhao Ming was choked again, this time it was more serious, not tea, but rice. Because it was rice, Zhao Ming had to pat his chest hard to let it go down.

At the same time, glancing at Su Tingting, who seemed to not know what she was talking about, Zhao Ming secretly made up his mind that he would never eat with this girl in the future.

ended with being choked again, Zhao Ming finally got a rough idea of what kind of girl Su Tingting was. At the same time, a morning that can only be described as eccentric has passed, and a slightly relaxed time has also come to an end.

Back in the bureau, colleague Shi Hao seemed to be busy, because it was not yet one o'clock at this time, and the colleagues who went out to eat had not yet returned. So after Shi Hao saw Su Tingting and Zhao Ming, he immediately waved and shouted, "Someone called the police and said that a body was found, and the others are not there, let's go and take a look." ”

The scene is in an old-fashioned community called Maple Leaf Community in the north of the city, Zhao Ming used to handle cases because of the need, came here a few times, he remembered that this community has a history of more than 20 years, the original developer has long been bankrupt and bankrupt, and the property basically does not exist, and later the residents in the community pooled money to get a property, responsible for cleaning and other small things.

The presence of victims in this community is not good news for Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming knew that the monitoring in this community had long been bad, and even some street lights would flash at night, and some would not light up directly.

The Maple Leaf neighborhood is not small, with a total of 33 buildings, each of which is a six-story old-fashioned structure, and the victim was found in a garage on 19 buildings.

When you enter the community, you can see 19 buildings on the right hand side. Of course, because the police call was made to the police of the sub-bureau, and now the police have pulled up the warning tape, and there are many elderly people surrounded by the warning tape, seeing this kind of picture, it will be easier for Zhao Ming and the three of them to find it.

After a while, the three of them came to the warning tape, showed their documents, and got in. Zhao Ming glanced around the warning tape, there were four policemen who came to maintain the scene, and there were about twenty or thirty people around the periphery of the warning tape, most of these people were relatively old and dressed very ordinary, and they were estimated to be residents in this community at noon on Monday.

Zhao Ming didn't pay much attention to the elderly people, he mainly focused his eyes on the four young people in their twenties and thirties.

Zhao Ming wanted to see something on their faces, and his past experience told him that sometimes some criminals can't think with common sense, because some criminals like to be on the scene, and they like the feeling of their works being presented in public.

Looking at it, Zhao Ming unexpectedly found that his gaze seemed to overlap with someone's gaze, and this person was not someone else, but Su Tingting.

Zhao Ming found out that Su Tingting was doing the same thing as him!

Interesting! Looking at Su Tingting, Zhao Ming suddenly thought like this.

Without seeing anything special from the crowd of onlookers, Zhao Ming walked into the very dimly lit garage.

The garage is very old, and although there are electric lights, the bulbs have long since broken down. Fortunately, it was the sunniest time of the day, and they could clearly see the corpse.

So naturally, another accident 'attacked' Zhao Ming, for which Zhao Ming had to widen his eyes. The victim was seen lying flat on the dusty ground, arms and legs spread apart in a large shape, eyes closed as if asleep.

However, this is not the part that attracts Zhao Ming's attention, what attracts Zhao Ming is the victim's dress, I saw that the victim is also wearing a suit that looks quite exquisite, and there are no wrinkles on the surface of the suit, whether it is a shirt or trousers, it is obvious that someone has sorted it out for him after his death.

Don't think about it, it must have been done by the murderer.

The garage was completely empty, there was nothing in it, there was nothing around the victim, and the blood was concentrated on the neck, and he died by cutting his throat.

However, there was almost no blood on the ground, and only some dried blood was stained on the victim's neck.

Zhao Ming quickly recorded these discoveries in the notebook he carried with him, and he wrote down two words, "Remove the corpse!" ”

Zhao Ming also wanted to observe more, but at this time, Su Tingting actually squatted directly next to the victim, and looking at her movements, she actually wanted to reach out and touch the corpse.

"Stop!" Zhao Ming's heart tightened, and he hurriedly shouted, "Don't touch it." “

Zhao Ming, who said this, was already in a very bad tone. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that this was the first day, he would have scolded Su Tingting for her reckless behavior.

Who would have thought that Su Tingting, who looked up, frowned instead, and looked at Zhao Ming with a strange expression, Zhao Ming was stunned by her, and he felt that something seemed to have changed.

"Pictures have already been taken at the scene." Su Tingting replied like this, her tone was calm and composed, and she was fundamentally different from her in the morning.

Zhao Ming felt uncomfortable, although he didn't want to admit it, but a feeling of being provoked did come out, forcing him to frown tightly.

"Then don't touch it yet." Zhao Ming replied.

Su Tingting shrugged her shoulders, but stood up without refuting.

At this time, Shi Hao had already taken the person who found the body outside the garage, the man was an old man, named Zhang Wenyuan, estimated to be in his sixties, and he didn't seem to have much fear.

Standing in front of Zhang Wenyuan, Zhao Ming felt that if this person was only thirty or forty years old, he would definitely doubt this calmness.

Zhang Wenyuan quickly recounted the discovery of the body, he lived on the first floor of this building, said to be the first floor, but because there is a garage on the ground part, it is actually strictly speaking on the second floor, because there is a short staircase to climb up.

After lunch, between half past eleven and twelve o'clock, Zhang Wenyuan came down with a chair to bask in the sun as usual, and at the same time talked to other old people who would come later later, which was their daily routine.

Zhang Wenyuan's place to bask in the sun is diagonally in front of the garage where the body was found, under a small tree, the small tree can shade them from the sun directly, and they usually stay under the tree until about three o'clock or almost four o'clock before going home.

Today, Zhang Wenyuan sat under the tree as usual, and his friend may have eaten late and did not come. He leaned back in his chair and smoked a cigarette, and as he smoked, he suddenly heard the sound of a mobile phone ringing, and it sounded very close, not upstairs, but not far from him.

Hearing the sound of the mobile phone, even if he knew that it was not his own mobile phone, Zhang Wenyuan instinctively looked left and right, and there was no one left and right, so he guessed who might have lost the mobile phone.

Zhang Wenyuan was idle, so he began to follow the sound to find it. But after all, he was an old man, and he didn't move so fast, so he still didn't find it when the sound ended.

Unexpectedly, when he decided to forget it, and was just about to sit back, the sound of the mobile phone rang again, and this time he heard the sound, and he was sure that the sound came from the garage.

He thought it was strange that the garage had long been deserted, and the owner had long since stopped living in the community, so how could someone still throw their mobile phones inside. Following the sound he approached the garage, and it was only then that he noticed that the bottom of the garage's roller shutter had been opened by someone, and it was not locked as before.

Finding this, he thought to himself, could it be that when will the owner of the house come back? If the owner of the house came back, even if the roller shutter door was not locked, he would not be able to open the roller shutter door rash and go in, and after hesitation, the second time the phone rang ended.......
