Chapter 4: The Female Corpse

After a while, Tang Xiaowu's mood finally calmed down, and she told Wu Feng what had happened intermittently.

Tang Xiaowu's best friend died.

Her best friend's name is Li Fang, Tang Xiaowu's college classmate, who disappeared a month ago, and the police couldn't find Li Fang's trace after reporting the case.

Tang Xiaowu was disappointed in the efficiency of the police in finding people, but she couldn't afford to hire a detective, so she wanted to find a job as a detective and investigate by herself.

But early this morning, Li Fang's body was found.

The body was found in Yangming Lake and was packed in a large suitcase with a fishing net and several large stones in the net.

Typical murder and corpse dumping techniques.

This method of throwing corpses is very popular in the Dark Moon Republic, and there have been two identical cases of throwing corpses in Yangming Lake before.

The Sun Empire, a neighbor to the east, used another method of dumping corpses, often sealing them with cement and sinking them into the sea.

Different places will have different dialects, and the modus operandi of criminals also has strong local characteristics.

The person who found the body was named Chen San, a fishing enthusiast, when he threw the rod, he moved too much, and the car keys in his pocket fell into the lake, and when he went into the water to retrieve the keys, he found the suitcase, fishing nets and stones at the bottom of the lake.

Chen San was frightened with thigh cramps, drank a few sips of water at the bottom of the lake, but fortunately, he was good in water and returned to the shore alive.

After calling the police, the police quickly arrived at the scene, mobilized professional salvage equipment and personnel, and the suitcase was towed ashore.

The body in the suitcase was naked, severely swollen by the lake water, and his facial features were deformed, but fortunately, the police found a wallet in the suitcase, which contained Li Fang's documents.

According to the report of the missing person in the police station, the police quickly contacted Li Fang's family.

According to the birthmark on the corpse, the family identified the corpse correctly, and the deceased was determined to be Li Fang.

When Li Fang disappeared and reported the case a month ago, Tang Xiaowu accompanied Li Fang's family to the police station to report the case, and also left contact information, so Tang Xiaowu also received a call from the police and rushed to Yangming Lake as soon as possible.

Subsequently, the body was taken away by the police for an autopsy, and Tang Xiaowu came to the Black Thorn Detective Agency with sadness.

At this time, Tang Xiaowu had nowhere to go, and he didn't know what to do, the only thing he could think of was Wu Feng, who had only met him yesterday.

Wu Feng had a preliminary understanding of the case, comforted Tang Xiaowu a few words, and then went through a simple entry procedure for Tang Xiaowu, and said to Tang Xiaowu: "Congratulations on joining the Black Thorn Detective Agency, and next, we will start to deal with the first case in hand - Li Fang's suitcase and corpse throwing case." ”

Although he said that he wanted to change his way of life, as soon as he had a case, Wu Feng suddenly came to his senses.

Some people are born to solve crimes.

"So what should we do when we come down?" Tang Xiaowu is very satisfied with Wu Feng's enthusiasm, she is a detective Xiaobai, she has no clue about the investigation of the case, whether Wu Feng is motivated or not directly determines the progress speed of the case.

"First of all, we first have to sign an investigation commission agreement with the parents of the deceased to obtain the right to investigate the case of Li Fang's suitcase and body."

"Okay, I'll do this." Tang Xiaowu agreed, "It's just that Li Fang's parents don't have any savings, and the commission fee ......"

Tang Xiaowu wanted to speak and stopped.

"In view of your personal relationship with Li Fang, we will charge a symbolic dollar."

"Wu Feng, I didn't expect you to be a good person." A smile appeared on Tang Xiaowu's face for the first time today.

Wu Feng took out a blank entrustment agreement from the filing cabinet and handed it to Tang Xiaowu.

"You go and sign an entrustment agreement with Li Fang's parents, remember to collect the entrustment fee, and learn about Li Fang's social relations from Li Fang's parents and classmates, especially boyfriends, ex-boyfriends, etc." Wu Feng turned to the topic and arranged work for Tang Xiaowu.

After all, Tang Xiaowu is still a novice in the detective world, if she doesn't tell her what to do, she really doesn't know what to do.

"Why investigate Li Fang's social connections? Do you think an acquaintance committed the crime? Tang Xiaowu asked.

"There is a saying that the person who can really hurt you is often the person closest to you, and in terms of criminal investigation probability, in a murder case, the probability of an acquaintance committing the crime is as high as 70%."

"Huh? Acquaintances are so dangerous? Isn't that the more people we know, the more dangerous it becomes? Isn't it said that the more friends the better? Tang Xiaowu let out a series of question marks from his mouth.

"You're right, probability-wise, the more people you know, the more good and bad people there are, the bad guys can lead you astray, the good guys can give you the icing on the cake, and the bad guys are often deadly. So if you can tell if your friends are good or bad, the more friends you have, the better, and if not, the fewer people you know, the better. ”

This is Wu Feng's life experience, in the ten years he was a criminal policeman, he came into contact with many criminals, a few of them were due to the influence of the original family, the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked, the parents were not good birds, and the children raised were also the same.

But most criminals were born in simple families, and their parents were responsible people, and the reason why they went astray was mostly because they made some friends with bad character when they were young, and they took the wrong path.

Meng's mother chose to live next to her neighbor, in fact, she had great wisdom.

Tang Xiaowu didn't seem to understand it, Wu Feng's words sounded very novel, but they seemed to make sense.

She also couldn't understand why Wu Feng looked about the same age as her, but he seemed to understand everything, as if he had a lot of experience and insights.

Tang Xiaowu didn't ask any more questions, picked up the blank detective power of attorney given by Wu Feng, went out and rode a small pink electric motorcycle, and set off.

Wu Feng then also went out, took out his mobile phone and wanted to call a taxi, but after thinking about the balance in his mobile phone, he shook his head, and finally scanned the code and got on a bus.

His destination was on the shore of Yangming Lake, the scene of Li Fang's body dumping.

It was originally a reservoir on the outskirts of Yangming City, but later the urban expansion movement arose, and the country began to build buildings on land.

The location of the Yangming Reservoir is far from the center of Yangming, and most developers are not optimistic about this land.

But one developer had the foresight to buy a large plot of land around the reservoir, but instead of rushing to build residential development, he built an imposing office building next to the reservoir.

Later, that office building became the new office building of the Yangming City Government, and the Yangming Reservoir became the current Yangming Lake.

Correspondingly, a large number of luxury residential buildings and villas were built around Yangming Lake, and Yangming University and Yangming First Hospital were later relocated.

This is the history of Li Laifu, the richest man in Yangming City.

Wu Feng took seven or eight bus stops, and after about half an hour, he arrived at Yangming Lake.

The scene of the dumping of the body is very easy to find, although the body has been pulled away, but the separation zone encircled by the police has not been removed, the crowd of onlookers at the scene has dispersed, and only a few people are left pointing in the distance.

Wu Feng quietly walked around the isolation zone, and did not find any useful clues at the scene, after all, this is the scene of the corpse, not the scene of the murder, basically there will be no useful clues left, and Yangming Lake is a famous scenic spot in Yangming City, and people come and go nearby, and it is basically wishful thinking to find the murderer's footprints or something.

But this trip was not in vain, Wu Feng found that there was a camera more than ten meters away from the scene of the corpse.

The surveillance of the camera is generally kept for two or three months, and Li Fang has only been missing for a month now, which shows that the surveillance camera must have captured the picture of the murderer throwing the body, and the police should not let go of such a useful clue no matter how stupid they are.

Wu Feng had a smile on his face, it seemed that this dollar commission fee would not waste much of his time, but he was also a little disappointed, he was really a stupid thief, which made this case not difficult at all.

Wu Feng took the scene of the body dumping as a starting point and walked towards the lakeside road.

A little outside the straight line, the distance to the straight line, the perpendicular line is the shortest.

This route should be the route taken by the murderer when he threw the body, on the side of the road, there is a row of roadside parking spaces, and there are electronic billing cameras near the parking spaces.

The stupid thief has no sense of anti-reconnaissance at all, and most of them are killing people and throwing corpses for the first time, but this is definitely the last time.

Wu Feng naturally came up with the picture of the murderer throwing the corpse in his mind: late at night, a car came at a gallop, stopped on the side of the road, and a person ran down in a panic in the car, maybe a few people, he (they) opened the trunk, carried out the suitcase containing the corpse, picked up the fishing net, walked straight to Yangming Lake, found a few big stones by the lake, stuffed it into the fishing net with the suitcase, and threw it into the lake.

If the murderer had been a little more stupid, did not cover the number plate of the car, and did not wear a hood when throwing the body, it is estimated that the police would have solved the case in the next two days.

Wu Feng sighed again, the difficulty of solving the case this time was easier than one plus one equals two, and it seemed that he had no chance to make his own move.
