Chapter 130: A Strange Time of Death

Chang Qingshan's body was so badly damaged that he first fell to his death from a height, and then was squeezed by the elevator.

The forensic doctor at the Z City Police Department took a lot of effort to put together his body alone, so the autopsy results were naturally slow.

To be honest, if it weren't for the doubts at the scene of the corpse and the evidence of the subsequent autopsy, I once thought that Chang Qingshan was the mastermind behind the whole "murder" case.

I believe that the real murderer also wants Chang Qingshan to be his scapegoat.

After an investigation by the police station, it was found that Chang Qingshan was the name of the deceased who had been registered and modified by the local public security organ a few months ago, and that guy's original name was Lu Wei, who lived in Gansu Province and went to Z City alone three years ago to beg for a living.

Prior to this, Chang Qingshan had been barely making a living by writing on the Internet, and most of what he wrote was mainly suspense and reasoning, and he was almost not famous.

A year ago, Chang Qingshan also submitted several manuscripts to the "White Night" magazine under the pseudonym of Night Traveler, but they were all returned due to quality and style problems.

Later, the police went to Chang Qingshan's home and found many backup manuscripts in the folder on his desktop computer, among which the original manuscripts of the murder memories, the phantom of the train, and the bloody banquet were among them.

However, compared to the three articles I saw in the magazine, the police found it in Chang Qingshan's house is not so outstanding, although the general direction of the plot is similar, but there are several key descriptions of the crime scene in the article, but they do not appear.

I speculate that Chang Qingshan must have collaborated with someone to write those three articles.

Because he did not witness the entire process of the case, the other party was responsible for telling him the general situation, and Chang Qingshan was responsible for writing, and after writing, he handed over the manuscript to the other party for revision, and after completion, it was printed on the three unpublished issues of the "White Night" magazine, so that the precise layout was completed step by step.

Based on this speculation, I asked Lin Feng to send someone to check the situation of the Chang Qingshan bank card account.

The news I got was that two months ago, three huge sums of money had been deposited into the guy's bank card account, totaling as much as 200,000 yuan.

It is indeed doubtful that a third-rate family like him, who has no fame and no regular income, can suddenly get such a huge amount of money.

With the permission of his superiors, Lin Feng then communicated with the bank to see if he could find the specific information of the payer.

However, the other party seemed to have been on guard for a long time, and after searching for a long time, he only found a bank card account registered with fake identity information, which had almost no effect on the detection of the case.

However, with the above investigation results, I can roughly confirm that Chang Qingshan should be just a pawn of the murderer.

He was only responsible for writing the original manuscript through the murderer's dictation, and as for the "Maori Kogoro" who revised the manuscript to that extent, there should be someone else!

"That is to say, this guy named Chang Qingshan has almost no understanding of those three cases from beginning to end, and it is even possible that he does not know that the "plots" told to him by the other party are real cases? Lin Feng asked with some incredulity.

"Suffice it to say, I estimate that the other party's literary attainments are limited, so it takes a person to write the original manuscript, and he can revise it to complete the three killings."

If so, then why did the other party kill "Chang Qingshan"? By every measure, that guy is nothing more than an outsider. ”

It can't be said that since Chang Qingshan appeared in the "White Night" magazine that night, he has an inseparable relationship with the whole case.

Maybe it's because he saw the face of the man behind the scenes that he attracted the disaster of killing.

I flipped through Chang Qingshan's autopsy report and marked out several doubts one by one.

As Lin Feng said, Chang Qingshan's death conclusion is the most problematic of the three, first of all, there is a contradiction between the time of that guy's death and the scene we saw with our own eyes.

At that time, we retrieved the surveillance video and found that at about 3:30 a.m., Chang Qingshan, like Song Shuai, seemed to have been hypnotized and lost consciousness, and then appeared in that strange posture near the elevator hall on the twelfth floor.

Subsequently, there was noise in the surveillance footage, and the picture became distorted and blurry to the point that it was completely unclear.

The whole picture distortion lasted for about thirty seconds, and when it was restored again, Chang Qingshan had disappeared, and the surveillance video of the entire office building was searched, but there was no figure of that guy.

Then, after the engagement feast, his body was found at the bottom of the elevator passage.

Chang Qingshan's body was accompanied by multiple comminuted fractures, including a fracture of the left 6, 7, 8, and 9 ribs in the posterior axillary line, and the broken end of the fracture pierced into the chest cavity. He had massive blood in both chests, severe contusion in both lungs, massive blood in the abdomen, rupture of the liver, spleen, and kidneys, contusion of the pancreas, and fracture of the spine.

To sum up, all of them are in line with the characteristics of a fall from a height.

Although the deceased was run over by the elevator after his death, fortunately he did not hurt his stomach.

After death, the stomach basically stopped digesting, and the police identified the food residues in his stomach to accurately deduce the specific time of Chang Qingshan's death, which should be between 3:15 a.m. and 3:25 a.m. that night.

The time of his death was not much different from the time he had left the White Nights newsroom, but it was at least five minutes away from the final time when the guy disappeared from the surveillance footage.

That's the contradiction! The time of Chang Qingshan's death does not correspond to the time point when he last appeared before his death.

The police autopsy report is unlikely to have a problem, 3:15 to 3:25 is the maximum margin of error given, so I still can't figure out what happened in the five minutes of the difference?

Lin Feng listened to my conclusion, and then added: "Even if you ignore the five-minute time difference, do you feel it?" In the 30 seconds that disappear from the surveillance footage, it seems a bit difficult for a person to climb from the twelfth floor to the fifteenth floor, break open the elevator door, and then jump from the top! ”

Lin Feng's analysis does make sense, it is really impossible to complete the above things in thirty seconds, not to mention that Chang Qingshan's mental state was still a little wrong at that time.

"And most importantly, you've all overlooked!" At this time, Liu Hao's voice suddenly came from behind him.

The old man rubbed his eyes, got up from his chair, and returned the clothes he had draped over to me.

It seems that he is resting well, both eyes have regained their vitality, and the whole person has regained the vitality he had before.

"What's the important point you're referring to?"

"You've all overlooked the elevator factor! Don't forget, Chang Qingshan's body was found at the bottom of the entire passage! ”

After Liu Hao's reminder, I suddenly understood.

At that time, when I realized that Chang Qingshan might be that Maori Kogoro, Liu Hao and I chased after him and ran all the way to the twelfth floor.

At that time, the elevator had just descended to about four or five floors, and it only stopped when it went straight down to the first floor. That's why Liu Hao and I concluded that the guy wanted to take that elevator out of the office building.

If he really jumped from the floor not long ago, then how did his body get over that elevator and go straight to the bottom of the entire passage?

I considered all possible scenarios and came up with a single possibility.

Although this statement may be far-fetched, I prefer to trust my reasoning on the basis of the accuracy of the forensic conclusions.

"Goofy, don't sell anything to us, say whatever you want!" Lin Feng said impatiently, it seemed that he was already a little disgusted to continue to speculate like this.

"The only possibility I can think of is that there is a problem with the surveillance footage!"

"Is there a problem with the surveillance footage? What do you mean: ”

Is there a possibility that the video of Chang Qingshan's strange performance on the twelfth floor was recorded in advance by someone and forced into the monitor through some kind of program, during the time period of 3:30.
