186. Investigate the scene of the killing
As soon as Tian Chunda saw this stage, he immediately noticed one thing-
The face shape of these chrysanthemum dolls is very similar to that of the people of Hong Li's family.
"That's, that's ......"
Tian Chunda's tongue was like a knot, and he couldn't say a word.
He couldn't help but take a few steps forward, however, at this moment, the head of the puppet in front of him suddenly shook a few times, and soon, it was completely separated from the body......
"Ahh
Tian Chunda shouted, and the whole person took a big step back.
It turned out to be Zhu Wenwu's head! A large patch of dark red blood continued to gush out of the place where Zhu Wenwu's head was beheaded, giving people the feeling of being dead.
"ThisβThis is ......"
Tian Chunda finally came back to his senses and spit out these words.
"Zhu Wenwu was killed......"
Lawyer Gu Gong and the police officers just nodded silently.
"But, but, why did the murderer go to such great lengths to arrange the scene like this?"
Everyone present stared at each other, and no one could answer Tian Chunda's question.
"Usually murderers deliberately hide the deceased's leader in order to hide the true identity of the deceased, but, but, why did this head appear here in the first place?"
"Mr. Tian Chunda, here's the problem. We don't know who the murderer is, or what his intentions were, except that he abandoned the body, cut off the deceased's head, and brought it here to be used as the head of a chrysanthemum doll. β
"What is the murderer's motive for doing this?"
"Well...... We don't know. β
Yang Ping, director of the Red Leaf Valley Police Station, sighed and said.
He has short gray hair, is not tall, slightly chubby, and has a slightly convex lower abdomen.
Tian Chunda glanced at the chrysanthemum doll again, only to see that it was standing behind the dim stage like a monster, while Zhu Wenwu's head rolled down at its feet, and the faces of the dolls that imitated Hong Li, Zhu Shi, Zuo Qing and Xin Youzhi next to the head were so cold.
Tian Chunda wiped away the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead, turned his head and asked, "Where is Zhu Wenwu's body?" What happened to the part below his skull? β
"We're searching too, but I guess it's not far from here! And this 'chrysanthemum garden' has not been destroyed, so the first scene of the crime should be somewhere else, if the first scene can be found......"
When Director Yang said this, suddenly two or three plainclothes criminal policemen ran towards here, and one of the criminal policemen ran to the director's side and whispered, Director Yang immediately frowned and looked back at Tian Chunda.
"I've found the first scene, so let's come along!"
Tian Chunda nodded, and walked side by side with lawyer Gu Gong behind Director Yang, who took the lead.
"That's right! Mr. Gu Gong, who first discovered Zhu Wenwu's head? Tian Chunda asked curiously.
"It's Yuan Zhuang."
"Yuan Zhuang?"
Tian Chunda was a little surprised, and his voice couldn't help but raise a lot.
"Well, yes, Yuan Zhuang comes here every morning to prune the chrysanthemums, and this morning when he came to the nursery to see the flowers as usual, he found the head, so he immediately ran to tell me about it...... yes, it was nine o'clock. I was also taken aback after hearing this, and hurriedly ran here to find out, and then Hong Li's family also came to the nursery, Mrs. Hong Xiangzhu cried and screamed, and the whole person was about to collapse. Alas! It's no wonder that such an unfortunate thing happened, so ...... she did"
"What about Mrs. Hong Xiangsong and Zuo Qing?"
"They also came, but when they saw Zhu Wenwu's head, they didn't say a word, Zuo Qing was still like that, wearing a mask, and Mrs. Hong Xiangsong was still indifferent, and the two of them quickly went back to the room, so I don't know how these two people felt when they saw Zhu Wenwu's head."
Tian Chunda nodded silently, and after a while, he asked as if he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, is the scroll with Zuo Qing's handprint in Zhu Wenwu's place?" β
"No, the scroll is in my custody right now, and it's in this briefcase."
Lawyer Gu Gong gently patted the briefcase that was clipped under his armpit, and suddenly, he suddenly shouted: "Mr. Tian Chunda, could it be that Zhu Wenwu was killed because of that scroll?" β
Tian Chunda didn't answer this question, but just asked with a solemn face: "Does the whole Hong Li family know that this scroll is kept by you?" β
"Yes, except for Mrs. Hong Xiangsong and Zuo Qing, everyone knows it. Because after they left, everyone agreed that I should keep it. β
"So Mrs. Hong Xiangsong and Zuo Qing don't know about this?"
"Yes, unless someone says it."
"Someone said it? Probably not! Don't they get along with other people? β
"I thought so too. However, those two people ......"
By this time, the group had come to the dock facing the lake. This dock is the place where Yuan Zhuang took Tian Chunda on the day of the public will.
The entire dock is made entirely of reinforced concrete and rectangular in shape, with an observation deck on the top floor.
They climbed the narrow staircase to the lookout; At the moment when he stepped on the lookout, Tian Chunda couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
I saw a round rattan coffee table on the lookout, and there were five or six rattan chairs around the coffee table, one of which had fallen down, and there was a lot of blood on it.
It seems that the first scene should be here, but what about the corpses? There weren't any corpses on the lookout!
Tian Chunda became more and more puzzled.
"Captain Tian, the murder happened here. The murderer killed Zhu Wenwu, cut off his head, and threw the body down from here. Oh, you see......"
Detective Hao Dong pointed to a pool of blood and narrated.
The blood trail stretched from the rattan chair to the lookout, and below was the surface of Lake Momiji. Due to the rain, there are constant circles of ripples on the surface of the lake.
"That's it! Then we'll have to fish it in the lake. β
Director Yang looked at the lake and couldn't help but shiver.
"Is the lake in this area deep?"
"No, it won't be deep. And lo and behold! β
Director Yang pointed to the surface of the lake and said, "The problem is that the lake water in this area usually flows in a whirlpool, so at this time, I am afraid that the corpse will no longer know where to drift." β
At this time, a plainclothes criminal policeman came to Director Yang's side.
"Director, we found this thing......"
It was a chrysanthemum-shaped brooch about an inch in diameter, and a large ruby was set on the chrysanthemum made of gold.
"This brooch fell next to the fallen wicker chair, and we ......" Before the criminal police could finish speaking, lawyer Gu Gong let out a loud shout.
Director Yang and Tian Chunda were both startled, and when they looked back, they saw lawyer Gu Gong looking at the brooch with wide eyes.
"Mr. Gu Gong, do you recognize this brooch?"
Director Yang asked suspiciously.
Lawyer Gu Gong then took out a handkerchief and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.
