The smell of blood in the bedroom is even stronger than in the living room.

Zhu Chenghu is about fifty years old, with a round belly, as if he was pregnant in October. Because the weather was not very cool at this time, he only wore a large pair of pants and lay naked on the bed.

He had also had his neck wiped on his face, his entire bed sheet stained blood-red, and no other visible injuries were visible on his body.

The place next to Zhu Chenghu was empty, and Zhu Chenghu's wife, Liu Xiang, fell between the bed and the glass window, and on the glass of the window, there was a bright red palm print, which kept sliding down, pulling out a long blood stain.

Liu Xiang looked much younger than Zhu Chenghu, wearing a flowery cotton pajamas, and her face was bloody.

Her injuries were concentrated in her lower back, and she was the only one of the three who had not had her throat cut.

Shen Ke looked at the bloody handprints on the glass, Liu Xiang should have thought about opening the window for help, but he couldn't open the window.

"The murderer killed Su Guixiang in the living room, and then entered the bedroom, when Zhu Cheng should not have woken up, so there is no trace of a fight in this room, and there are no resistant scars on Zhu Chenghu's body."

"Isn't it strange? Someone opened the door and came in and killed Su Guixiang, but Zhu Chenghu didn't notice it, and his throat was cut in his sleep. And there were no other injuries on his body, as if the murderer knew he wouldn't wake up, and went straight to the point. ”

Shen Ke said, pointing to Zhu Chenghu's face.

"Look at this face is so white, there is not even a handprint covering his mouth. Generally speaking, if you are worried that people will shout for help in the middle of the night, they will cover their mouths. But the murderer didn't have that consideration, or he didn't think he needed it at all......"

"Zhu Chenghu was killed in bed, and blood sprayed everywhere, including blood sprayed on the face of Liu Xiang, who was sleeping next to him."

Liu Xiang was awakened and wiped her face, and at this time her hands were covered with a lot of blood.

After she got out of bed, she wanted to open the window and call for help......" Shen Ke looked out the window, this is the third floor, and there is no anti-theft net, "It is also possible that she wants to jump out of the window to escape." ”

"The killer stabbed her against the wall and stabbed her in the back, and she was pressed against the window at the time, and after being stabbed, the person slipped down, leaving this bloody handprint."

"After the murderer killed the three men, he went to the kitchen and got a bone chopping knife and cut off the hands of the three men. He put his left hand on the altar and took all three right hands with him. ”

Shen Ke paused when he said this, and his brows furrowed tightly.

Seeing Sister Wang, who was busy collecting evidence in the house, she suddenly said, "It's a little strange, isn't it?" Bloody footprints on the mat at the doorway. There was only one foot, and it was still very clear, so clear that I could tell what size of shoe it was. ”

"But why are there no bloody footprints in the house? Can't the murderer walk in the house and float, and only step on such a foot when he goes out, right? ”

When she entered the door, she clearly saw the blood dripping from the ground, but there were no bloody footprints.

"Could it be that the murderer walked very carefully and deliberately avoided the bloodstains?" Li Yuan asked.

Shen Ke shook his head, "That's even more strange, if the murderer is careful not to step on the blood, then the soles of his shoes are clean." If the soles are clean, then how can a bloody footprint appear out of thin air at the door? ”

"Also, we've all experienced rainy days. Walking outside on a rainy day and getting your shoes wet will leave a series of footprints. At the beginning, when I first entered the office hall on the first floor of the Municipal Bureau, the footprints were particularly obvious. ”

By the time I got to the stairs and was about to go upstairs, the footprints were so shallow that I could barely see them. There were bloody footprints left on the mat at the doorway, why weren't there on the stairs? ”

"Could it be that this mat will suck blood on its own, and absorb the blood when you step on it? Not to mention that he rubbed his feet at the door, the footprints were clear, but there were no traces of rubbing up and down. ”

Li Yuan's face was slightly gloomy, "You mean that this footprint is very likely to have been deliberately imprinted by the murderer." ”

Why would he do it?

Is it so that people can find out that something is wrong with this family in the morning, or is it to be suspicious? Or maybe it's a certain hateful sense of ritual of the murderer, just like the "Zhu Deer" will be left behind after killing someone.

Shen Ke didn't answer, there are too few clues now, and she can't answer this question.

She thought as she stepped out of the bedroom and walked over to the wooden carving.

The person who took pictures here to collect clues was one of Sister Wang's apprentices, named Yi Zhi, who looked like a member of the men's group at first glance, with a kind of delicate air of a beautiful man.

The big-eyed bead wood carving had been carefully packed into a transparent evidence bag by him, ready to be packed and taken away.

Feeling that Shen Ke was looking at him, Yi Zhi's hand trembled slightly, and he almost didn't spill the ashes in the incense burner.

"Wait a minute", Shen Ke said, stopping Yi Zhi who was about to put away the incense burner.

She sniffed and sniffed, the ash in the incense burner was very even, and it smelled faintly fragrant. Not the usual rose-red scent, but yellow.

The color of the incense stick that still remains on the top also indicates this.

Shen Ke frowned, picked up his mobile phone, and took a photo of the incense burner.

She thought, looked around in this place of worship, and went around Su Guifang's house again, and only when she came out did she ask Yi Zhidao, "Have you found where to put this incense?" If you use an incense burner at home and want to worship big-eyed beads, then the incense should be bought in a dozen. ”

"I looked around, but I couldn't find where the incense was stored."

Yi Zhi nodded obediently, "Sister Shen, I'll find it for you when I'm ready, and I'll tell you when I find it." ”

Li Yuan, who was following Shen Ke, was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't believe his ears, "What did he call you?" ”

Shen Ke looked at him with a fuss on his face, a little inexplicable, "If your ears are not good, you can treat them." ”

Shen Ke said, nodding at Yi Zhi, "Okay." ”

As she spoke, she walked outside and took off her shoe covers, and headed downstairs.

This room is not big, there were too many people in it before, Chen Mo and Qi Huan didn't enter the door to take a look at the situation and went down to find someone to understand the situation.

As soon as she got downstairs, she saw Chen Mo and Qi Huan surrounded by people.

"Xiao Qi, do you have a girlfriend? Let me tell you about my cousin's daughter, but it's really good, she graduated from Nanjiang University of Science and Technology with a doctorate, and now she is working in the research institute......"

Hearing Shen Ke's footsteps, Qi Huan nodded at her and pulled Chen Mo out of the crowd.

Chen Mo put his mobile phone in his pocket, and Shen Ke's discovery before had been synchronized to the group.

"Tell me what we've learned. The situation of the Zhu family is quite complicated, and the three brothers and sisters are not very harmonious. This Zhu Chenghu used to be a taxi driver, but later hit and killed someone and lost a lot of money. ”

Since then, he has stopped working and lived with his family at Mrs. Su's house. He has a short temper, and many people in the community are afraid of him. ”
