"Team leader, another one died." Shao Jianxiong looked at Zhang Chao in front of him with a bitter face and said in a low voice. This is already the fifth case of this month, the victims were all shaved hair, there was no wound on the surface, after a forensic autopsy, it was found that the cause of their death was that the adrenal glands will suddenly release a large amount of catecholamines, causing a sudden increase in heartbeat, blood pressure increases, and the oxygen consumption of myocardial metabolism increases sharply. Excessive blood circulation hits the heart like a flood, tearing myocardial fibers and bleeding the heart, leading to cardiac arrest and death. These are all medical terms, Shao Jianxiong couldn't understand them, but later the simplest sentence of the forensic doctor summed up all this, these people were scared to death.

Since the first case that occurred on the fourth day of the month, it has only been 10 days, and five have already died, and the way of death, modus operandi, and even the time of death are exactly the same. It can be said that these cases can be classified as serial homicides. Now the members of their second serious crime team have been working overtime for 10 days in a row, eating and living in the police station, but they have not found a clue except for the increasing number of victims.

At this moment, Zhang Chao in front of Shao Jianxiong was already red-eyed, almost on the verge of going berserk, starting from the third deceased, whoever reported the news of someone's death to the team leader would be reprimanded by him, he was unlucky today, it just happened to be his turn.

Zhang Chao didn't speak, but still put his fingers crossed under his nose, as if he was looking at the report of the case, and seemed to be thinking about things, Shao Jianxiong waited for about five or six minutes, and saw that Zhang Chao still didn't say a word, and sighed helplessly, just when he was about to turn around and leave, Zhang Chao raised his head: "Let's go, go to the scene of the crime and have a look, I don't believe that this criminal really has the means to go through the sky, and he will not leave a trace of evidence in a few crimes." ”

The second serious case team, there are a total of five people, Zhang Chao is the team leader, and the remaining three people today were sent by Zhang Chao to investigate the family and social relations of the deceased before.

When Shao Jianxiong and Zhang Chao arrived at the scene of the crime, the downstairs was already full of onlookers pointing and pointing, as well as some news reporters who rushed to hear the news. Seeing Zhang Chao stop the car, a large group of reporters surrounded him and put the microphone in his hand in front of Zhang Chao: "Sir Zhang, is this case the same as the previous times?" ”

"Sir Zhang, why do you say that the criminals shave the hair of the deceased, is it related to some kind of ritual?"

"Sir Zhang, what kind of information or evidence have you all mastered? Can you tell us about it? ”

“……”

Looking at the sealed reporters, Zhang Chao had a headache, he squeezed through the crowd with difficulty, walked to the cordon, and then turned his head and said politely to the reporters who were chasing after him: "I'm sorry, I have nothing to say." Anyway, the reporter who was still asking questions behind him took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and asked the police officer who was maintaining the cordon, "How is the situation inside?" ”

The police officer looked upstairs and said, "It's a resident on the fourth floor, Miss Li is already up there." Zhang Chao put on his gloves, nodded and said, "Well, it's hard work, other people and other idle people come in." With that, he took Shao Jianxiong upstairs.

On the fourth floor, there were already a lot of people who were already taking pictures to collect evidence, and when they saw Zhang Chao and Shao Jianxiong on it, they all wanted to say hello, Zhang Chao motioned for them to continue to do things, took out a voice recorder, and walked into the room.

In the house, a police officer was asking a girl who was already crying, and when he saw Zhang Chao coming in, the police officer walked up to Zhang Chao and said: "Zhang sir, the person who called the police is called Tang Lingli, and she is the daughter of the deceased." Zhang Chao nodded, walked in front of Tang Lingli, pressed the record button of the voice recorder and asked, "Hello, my name is Zhang Chao, can I ask, when did you find out that your father died?" ”

Tang Lingli glanced at Zhang Chao, and said intermittently with crying: "Usually I work overtime to bring my dad his favorite tea cakes, this morning is the same, I called a few times after I came back, and my father also answered me in the room, I thought that my father had not gotten up yet, so I put the tea cakes on the coffee table in the living room and went to take a bath by myself, and when I finished taking a bath, I saw that the tea cakes were still on the coffee table, I felt strange, so I opened the door, who knows......"

Zhang Chao nodded and continued to ask, "Then, what about your mother?" ”

Tang Lingli glanced at Zhang Chao and sobbed for a while before continuing: "My mother died very early, so I have always lived with my father. ”

Zhang Chao nodded, stopped asking questions, turned to Shao Jianxiong and said, "Jianxiong, you take her back to make a record." ”

At this moment, a young woman in a white coat walked out of the deceased's room, her name is Li Jiaxin, she is a forensic doctor in the police station, most of the people in the police station call her Miss Li, only 25 years old, very beautiful, but single, mainly because of the work she is engaged in, which scares away many suitors.

Zhang Chao watched Shao Jianxiong take Tang Lingli with him, and then walked in front of Li Jiaxin: "Miss Li, how is it?" “

Li Jiaxin took off her mask, walked to the water dispenser and poured a glass of water before saying: "What else, judging from the situation of the corpse spots, the time of death of the deceased should be between 11 o'clock in the middle of the night last night and 2 o'clock the next day." The cause of death was exactly the same as the previous ones, the pupils were dilated, congested, and there was no hair left, I didn't even bother to dissect it, and I must have been scared to death again. ”

Although Li Jiaxin said that there are not many suitors, it does not mean that there are none, Zhang Chao is one of them, if it weren't for such a serious serial murder case this time, they would probably already be a couple, but now Zhang Chao is not in the mood to fall in love for the time being, and the development of the case is what he wants to do.

Li Jiaxin's work, Zhang Chao is still very relieved, since Li Jiaxin did not say anything else, it proves that it is definitely impossible to find clues from the deceased.

After Li Jiaxin drank the water, she went out and called a few police officers, and put the deceased in a black body bag and moved away. Zhang Chao walked into the deceased's room, stretched out his hand and pulled the window, and said to the recorder: "The deceased's window is closed very tightly, and the possible surname of the murderer who climbed in from the window to commit the crime is investigated." ”

Then, he checked the windows of the other rooms, including the living room, which were also closed, if it was really as Tang Lingli said that she only found out that her father had died after opening the door, then this was a secret room, unless the deceased himself put the murderer in through the door, it was impossible for outsiders to enter.

Leaning against the window of the living room, Zhang Chao continued to the recorder: "The method of killing is unknown, how did the murderer enter the room, and what if he didn't leave a clue?" No fingerprints, no footprints, no clues. Also, how did the murderer kill people, and how did he scare the victim to death? Finally, why did the murderer shave the victim's hair after the murder, this must have a special meaning for the murderer, but what is the meaning? ”

In the window of the living room on the fourth floor, Zhang Chao could clearly see the bustling crowd downstairs, as well as the reporters who still did not want to leave, and couldn't help but feel anxious. Suddenly, he saw a man in a black trench coat, who, after seeing the deceased being carried into the car, had put on the collar of the trench coat and turned around to leave.

Zhang Chao hurriedly took out the phone and dialed the phone of the police officer who was still guarding the cordon downstairs: "Hey, Xiao Wang, have you seen the person in the black windbreaker in the crowd?" That's right, it's that person, stop him for me, and I'll go down right away. ”

In criminal psychology, there is a kind of criminal psychology called perverted criminal psychology, after committing a crime, criminals will return to the scene of the crime after a period of time to appreciate their masterpieces, and the man in the trench coat is very much in line with this on the surface.

When Zhang Chao went downstairs, the police had already stopped the man in the trench coat, and when he came over, the man in the trench coat spoke first: "You didn't disappoint me, you really came down." ”

was robbed by a man like this, Zhang Chao was obviously stunned, he looked at the man in front of him who was about the same age as himself, and asked suspiciously: "You are doing this to lure me down?" Do you know something? ”

The man in the trench coat nodded, and shook his head again: "I know something, do you want us to find a place to talk?" ”

Zhang Chao smiled: "Interesting, I'll take you back to the police station to see if you can recruit you!" ”

The man in the trench coat shook his head, seemed to look at Zhang Chao confidently and said, "First, you don't have any evidence to prove that I am related to this case, even if you take me back to the police station, you can only detain me for 12 hours at most." Second, Hong Kong is a society governed by the rule of law, and if I don't say anything within 12 hours, you won't be able to torture you to extract confessions. Do you still want to take me to the police? ”

After waiting for a while, seeing that Zhang Chao didn't look at him, the man in the windbreaker smiled and said, "How is it?" I'm doing the east, the coffee shop at the corner of the street has a good steak, go together? ”

Zhang Chao nodded helplessly and stretched out a hand: "Zhang Chao, the leader of the second team of the West Kowloon Serious Case." ”

"Luo Xi, it's a pleasure to meet you." (To be continued.) )
