Chapter 3: The Bloodstained Twigs

Lu Ke squatted down, picked up a dry branch at his feet, and held it in his hand to observe it carefully.

After observing for a while, he grabbed the branch hard and made a stinging motion.

Subsequently, he handed the branch to Jiang Xiran.

Jiang Xiran took the branch, looked at it, and thought of the wound on the left side of the deceased's neck, his brows slowly stretched, stared at Lu Ke's eyes, and nodded slowly: "If the branch is relatively hard and one side is sharp, under the strong force, it is absolutely possible for the branch to penetrate the neck." This situation is also more common in the news. ”

Lu Ke also nodded, then stood up and said to Ling Zizhen: "Take the technical team and search within the scope of this forest to see if there are any blood-stained branches." It is very likely that the murderer was having sex with the deceased. In the course of the act, an accident occurred, and he picked up a branch to kill someone, and then abandoned the branch and left the scene of the crime. ”

Ling Zizhen nodded and arranged a task for the technical team to find the murder weapon.

Su Simeng shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Such a large forest, there are four or five acres of land, and it is not easy to find a branch. ”

"After the murderer kills, he is in a hurry to flee the scene, and the scope should not be too large." Lu Ke said lightly.

Mo Yufei has been following behind Lu Ke, holding a pen and paper to carefully record Lu Ke's judgment on the scene, which is the accumulation of experience.

She glanced at the corpse slightly, and immediately turned her head away, faintly unbearable in her heart.

The preliminary autopsy at the scene was not over, and Jiang Xiran and Zhou Xiaoyi continued to examine the body.

The formation of the corpse mortis was already quite serious, and the corpse was still in the posture it was in when it was killed, Jiang Xiran fell on the deceased's tightly clenched fist.

The technical police immediately stepped forward and used a criminal investigation camera to take a close-up of the position of the deceased's hand.

Jiang Xiran and Zhou Xiaoyi worked together, wanting to break the deceased's fist to see what was inside, but under such a strength of corpse stiffness, they couldn't break it.

The two slowly moved the knuckles of the deceased, destroying the corpse. It took a moment to see what was inside from her slightly loosened fist.

It's just that this result is a little disappointing for them, because there are no key clues in it, just some leaves and dirt.

"It seems that the homicide only happened in an instant, the nerve endings in the neck are very rich, and the deceased must have suffered immensely when he was killed." Jiang Xiran said lightly.

Zhou Xiaoyi looked at this young girl, and also felt a little sorry, just thinking that she could catch the murderer as soon as possible: "But she didn't have any struggle, or fought back at the murderer, even if she scratched it, she could find skin chips in her nails......"

Lu Ke calmed down and asked Su Simeng beside him, "Has the identity of the deceased been confirmed?" ”

Su Simeng shook his head: "The school has been contacted, but the identity of the deceased is still being confirmed."

"Did you find the belongings of the deceased? Cell phone? Documents? Lu Ke asked again.

This question was answered by Ling Zizhen: "Nothing has been found, and the only thing that can provide us with clues is this corpse." ”

That's the reality, and it's true.

After taking all-round photographs and recording of the corpse, everyone dared to move the corpse and conduct a more detailed and further examination of the corpse.

Lu Ke wore gloves and two fingers into the pockets of his jeans stacked together.

After some fumbling around, nothing was found.

Immediately afterward, he went around to the other side of the body and felt for another pocket.

He touched it, and the whole person suddenly paused.

With this action, everyone understood that he must have discovered something.

The technical policeman who was holding a criminal investigation camera on the side immediately stepped forward when he saw this, and the flash kept turning on, tracking Lu Ke's hands and taking continuous photos.

Lu Ke moved very carefully, he slowly withdrew his arm, and slowly withdrew his hand from the pocket of his jeans.

Between his two fingers, there was a boxy object, packaged in blue, with the logo Dures printed on it.

"This ......"

Lu Ke hesitated for a moment, then slowly stood up, still holding Dures between his fingertips, and showed it to the technical police for a close-up shot.

"It's whole, unopened." Lu Ke added.

He then checked the deceased's other pockets and found nothing.

"What's going on? Bring your own device? Su Simeng frowned and muttered.

Obviously, with the discovery of this Dures, it seems to have changed the direction of the case, making the case from a crime of passion or a random crime to a love killing.

"Could it be a couple coming here for excitement......" Lu Ke analyzed in a low voice.

Jiang Xiran stood beside Lu Ke, nodded slightly, and said lightly: "This is in line with the situation that there are no traces of struggle and resistance at the scene, and it is very likely that the deceased was voluntary." ”

Lu Ke frowned and turned his head to look at Jiang Xiran: "It's just that in the process, something unexpected happened, from seeking excitement to killing?" ”

Jiang Xiran met Lu Ke's gaze, then avoided his gaze, and looked at the corpse beside him: "You better determine the identity of the deceased as soon as possible, I will go back to do an autopsy first." ”

After speaking, Jiang Xiran lifted the on-site investigation box and walked out of the woods.

Zhou Xiaoyi was left in the woods, and he was directing the technical team, helping to put the body into the body bag, and then carrying it to the corpse truck.

Looking at Jiang Xiran's back, Lu Ke suddenly asked Mo Yufei: "Where do you think we should start?" ”

Mo Yufei was looking down to record and raised her head suddenly. found that Lu Ke's eyes were a little wandering, and he didn't look at himself.

Subsequently, Mo Yufei settled down and replied seriously: "First, determine the identity of the deceased as soon as possible and investigate the social relations of the deceased, especially the emotional relationship...... Second, the construction workers who came to the school to plant trees were investigated, and even if the murderer was not among them, it was very likely that some clues would be found, such as eyewitnesses. ”

Lu Ke nodded and walked out of the woods: "Add a little more, investigate the security guards of the school, as well as the monitoring equipment in the school, to see if any unknown people have entered the school recently." ”

"Okay, I'll do it." Su Simeng replied.

"Team Lu! Found out! ”

Just then, a shout came from the woods.

Immediately afterwards, Ling Zizhen ran to Lu Ke with a physical evidence bag.

Inside the bag was a dry twig with a darker end of the box, apparently the color of the blood stains.

Ling Zizhen said happily: "Team Lu, this should be the murder weapon, we found it behind the rockery." ”

Su Simeng's face also showed a hint of joy: "It seems that after this grandson killed someone, he threw the branch into the woods, and we really found it." ”

After Lu Ke looked at the branch for a while, he returned the physical evidence bag to Ling Zizhen, his face was still calm: "Finding the branch can only be said to have identified the murder weapon, but it is almost impossible to collect the biological information of the murderer on the branch." ”

Then, Lu Ke looked up at the sun and said lightly: "Wrap up the team." ”

The cordon at the scene was not removed, and the entire forest was divided into crime scenes. No one is allowed to enter until the case is solved, and I am afraid that the construction team responsible for planting the trees will be suspended for some time.

Lu Ke sat back in the police van, the car was simply a steamer, and the seats were hot in the sun, making people subconsciously want to lift their butts.

Lu Ke looked at his watch, it was already half past eleven at noon.

"Reporter Tang is already gone, right?" He asked lightly.

"Reporter Tang went back today, saying that he left at 11 o'clock, and he should have left by now." Mo Yufei looked at Lu Ke and replied.

Lu Ke nodded and smiled bitterly: "I also said that I would give her a farewell party, and then send someone to send her back, it seems that everything is simple." ”

After speaking, he started the car and led the team back to the Jing'an City Public Security Bureau.
