Chapter 18: Hidden Clues
What makes me very concerned is that before Liu Mei died, she said: "I'm sorry, that guy told me to do it!" ”
Since he said it to me, it was clearly referring to the incident of slandering me at the police station for recruiting prostitutes.
It was because of her that I almost died in that bamboo forest.
But the question is, who told him to do it? Unknown.
It's a pity that gold-rimmed glasses, like Liu Mei, are just objects to be used. Who "that guy" refers to is still a mystery after all.
Because there was a precedent of the disappearance of the corpse, this time, the police station paid special attention, and Uncle Fang even sent additional police officers to surround the autopsy room, waiting for Liu Mei's corpse day and night, for fear that there would be another accident.
Fortunately, this time, nothing strange happened, Lin Xiaoxue cooperated with the other two forensic doctors from the Heijin City Police Department to successfully dissect Liu Mei's body, but the conclusion that could be drawn did not help much.
First of all, Liu Mei should have been controlled by the murderer about a day before she died, and she was violated many times. Her limbs were tied with hemp rope for too long, resulting in varying degrees of necrosis of her hands and feet due to the inability of blood to circulate.
Secondly, the cause of Liu Mei's death was indeed due to excessive blood loss, and her body was covered with knife wounds, all of which were caused by direct penetration of sharp knives, nine on the front and seven on the back. Strangely, all the wounds were deep, but they perfectly avoided all the vital points on the body.
The murderer's purpose is simply to torture her and complete his own killing work all along.
At first, I thought I was almost able to save Liu Mei before the other party could make a move.
But the various signs presented by the corpse show that when the murderer committed the murder, it did not seem that time was pressing at all. Moreover, the number of knife wounds, which is very obscure, 7 and 9, is like the intention that the extreme suspect always wanted to express.
719, nine out of seven! That bastard, sure enough, used Liu Mei's corpse to once again convey his intentions.
"You mean, that bastard is ready to do something to his next target?" Lin Xiaoxue said in surprise, her face full of incredulity.
"With his character, it's quite possible." Every time the murderer acts, he always leaves some traces that resemble signs of death, as a way to challenge the authority of the public security system and increase his criminal satisfaction.
Since the beginning of the confrontation with him, the only time I can be considered victorious is that I escaped alive from the bamboo forest that night, and the other few times, all of them were bruised by defeat.
The guy used to leave some clues before each move, so that the officer could guess the time of other crimes based on the clues left.
Since it has the death number of 719 vaguely expressed on Liu Mei's corpse, with the murderer's consistent character, his next target must have something to do with Liu Mei.
Either it is someone she knows, or this person has some kind of connection with Liu Mei.
I looked for all the information of Liu Mei since she was born, and read them all, but the more I looked at them, the more confused my thoughts became. Liu Mei is an orphan who grew up in a welfare home, and in her past 29 years of life, she has traveled to many cities, even in Heijin City, and has changed her residence no less than ten times.
Because of their profession, interpersonal interactions are complex.
Based on the connections of this layer alone, the scope of the investigation is too broad. Unfortunately, there are too few clues found this time. Also, I couldn't figure out when the guy would do it next, maybe a week later, or the next second.
I can't wait too long, I can only order: all women who have crossed paths with Liu Mei in the Black Gold Market and are under the age of 35 will be found out and protected. Even if it is looking for a needle in a haystack, it is better than inaction now.
Just as I was assigning the task, the gold-rimmed glasses suddenly rushed in in a hurry and shouted.
"Someone called and said that the next target of the murderer in the black gold case was... Yes..."
"Damn, who is it, don't sell it!"
He ran too quickly, lying on the table, gasping for a long time before he reluctantly continued: "It's the daughter of Team Ji, Ji Huahua!" ”
Season Flowers! The little girl who stayed by Ji Yan's side since his death!
My mind was dazed, and cold sweat flowed down my hair.
After Liu Mei's incident, I don't think that the gold-rimmed glasses will deliberately fix me, besides, the black gold case has reached this level, the pressure from all walks of life is too great, if it weren't for Mr. Yan to help us suppress it, the entire Heijin City Police Department is estimated to have to be replaced.
"Where did the news come from, is it reliable?"
"Just now, a mysterious person called the city bureau, and it happened to be me who answered the call! He said it very simply, and hung up the phone. "Our group followed behind the gold-rimmed glasses and rushed to the phone.
The internal phone of the police station has its own recording function, and I pressed the playback button, and the content of the previous call slowly began to play.
"Hello, who is it?"
"Tell Gao Fei that the next target of the murderer in the black gold case is Ji Yan's only daughter, Ji Huahua. The words have been put here, believe it or not. After saying such a simple sentence, the other party hung up the phone.
The voice of the mysterious man is specially processed with a heavy metal echo, and even with professional equipment, it cannot be restored to its original sound.
What's even more strange is that the internal phone of the Black Gold City Police Department is only dialed and used by internal police officers. Moreover, the other party brought me this sentence by name, could it be that he knew the process of the entire black gold case and everything that was happening in the police station?
"Could it be that the murderer of the black gold case called again in order to mislead us?" Lin Xiaoxue said with some concern. The murderer had also called the police station several times before to provoke me.
"It's unlikely to be the murderer." Unlike the previous few calls, the way of speaking on this phone was very straightforward. Moreover, I had a vague feeling that this mysterious man should know me, and that the informant sent in this tone was the most likely to convince me.
What makes me wonder is how that mysterious person could know the target of the murderer of the black gold case, could it be that there are people besides us who are silently concerned about the black gold case.
I asked the telecom technician if I could trace the location of the other party through the call, but the answer I got was disappointing.
Although this is a call from a mobile phone, because the call time is too short, and the other party directly unplugged the mobile phone battery after hanging up the phone, so even if you want to use GPS to track and locate now, it is impossible to achieve it.
Since the other party deliberately concealed his identity, I don't spend too much time on the identity of the mysterious person, and more importantly, now, I don't have more energy to care about other things.
Therefore, it is better to shift the attention to Ji Huahua to verify whether this line report is credible. Now, the black gold case is the top priority.
"Where is Ji Huahua now?" Since we were separated at Ji Yan's house that day, I haven't seen Ji Huahua, and I haven't heard anything about her.
"It is said that because of the stimulation, her mind is not normal, and her own mother does not accept her very well, so she has nowhere to go. So Fang Qiang sent her to the No. 2 Welfare Institute of Heijin City, and every day doctors from the city rushed to the Welfare Home to treat Ji Huahua. And since then, Fang Qiang has often visited Ji Huahua, and even the police station doesn't come often, damn, that old guy still can't tell which side is more important....."
Suddenly, something important flashed through my mind.
"Wait, where did it go?" When I roared, I directly shouted at the gold-rimmed glasses chattering on the side, and it took a long time before I reacted: "Black... The Second Welfare Institute of Heijin City... What's wrong? ”
I rushed out of the door, rushed into the archives, and turned over all of Liu Mei's files. I guess I've never seen my style of handling cases, and the whole person was so frightened that he didn't even dare to say anything.
Ji Huahua was actually sent, the second welfare institute in Heijin City! Oh my God, there shouldn't be such a coincidence in this world!
According to the data, the welfare home where Liu Mei stayed since she was a child is the No. 2 Welfare Home in Heijin City, and her former name, Liu Zige, was given to her by the old director of this welfare home.
After leaving this welfare home, she changed her former name to Liu Mei's!
The point is that the murderer left a death message before he wanted to kill Liu Mei, Liu Zige. It happened to be the name she used to use in this welfare home. Moreover, Ji Huahua is the only daughter left by Ji Yan, and it is very likely that she saw the murderer kill Ji Yan with her own eyes!
Combined with the analysis of the above clues, the tip sent by the mysterious person is extremely credible!
This bastard murderer refused to let go of even an eight-year-old girl!
I informed all the police officers present of the situation that I had analyzed, causing an uproar at the scene.
"Team Ji is gone, and that bastard still won't let go of his daughter!"
"Huahua has grown up, even if she fights hard, she has to protect her."
"Mr. Gao, you just give orders, we will all listen to you!"
Although Ji Yan is dead, his prestige is here. Almost all the police officers in the Heijin City Police Department have worked with him, and there are several of them, brothers who were born and died together.
Unexpectedly, because of Ji Yan and Ji Huahua, all the police officers of the Heijin City Police Station were united like never before, and I saw the light of hope in their eyes for the first time.
I still stationed most of the police officers at the police station to maintain daily work and investigation and search work, and rushed to the No. 2 Welfare Institute in Heijin City with a small number of experienced criminal policemen.
This operation was very dangerous, and unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoxue wanted to come with her, saying that she wanted to catch the murderer with her own hands. Uncle Fang is not in the police station now, the little girl cried, made trouble and hanged herself, I was so noisy that I had no choice but to be happy with her.
