The murderer is cruel and cunning, and she is not afraid.

But...... The corpses that have been dead for 4-5 days are superimposed on the abandoned garbage dump, which is really a kind of torture for Zhao Xiangwan, who has a good sense of smell.

Zhao Xiangwan took out a bottle of peppermint oil, smeared a layer on the middle of the nose, smelled the cool smell, and finally refreshed, and then returned to the office in good spirits.

As soon as he entered the office, Gao Guangqiang handed over a bottle of wind oil essence: "Use this to rub your hands." If you feel that there is a smell, apply it wherever it is. ”

Zhu Feipeng stuffed a lemon into her hand: "Ah, put this in the drawer, cut it to squeeze out the juice and rub your hands, refresh your mind and taste." ”

Zhu Kang pointed to the two small bottles of medical alcohol spray on her desktop: "Help you get it, this thing is also a bit useful for removing odors." ”

Zhao Xiangwan took the wind oil essence with his left hand and the lemon with his right hand, looking at the medical alcohol, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. When I was studying, I heard my classmates discuss that the smell of corpses is the most disgusting smell in the world, and the use of wind oil essence, lemon juice, and alcohol have a certain flavor repellent effect.

After sitting down, everyone began to discuss the case.

Before the photo was washed out, Zhu Feipeng dragged out the small blackboard, drew a simple topographical map, and stated the facts of the case, and he spoke while gesturing.

"Judging from the footprints at the first scene of the crime, two people entered the garbage dump management room together, and after a fight, one of them was hit by a brick and fell to the ground and died, and the other continued to pick up a brick and smash his face, picked up a garbage cart, pushed him to the abandoned well, stripped him naked, threw the body into the well, and then took the sand from the side of the road and poured it on the body until the body was no longer visible, then returned the car to its original place and took the clothes away. When I left the garbage dump, I didn't forget to close the iron door and hang the chain lock back in its place. ”

Zhu Kang asked: "Can you infer the height and weight of the two from the footprints?" ”

Zhu Feipeng said: "From the data such as shoe size and stride length, it can be roughly inferred that the one wearing leather shoes is 165-175cm tall and weighs 65-75 kg, which is on the fat side, which is consistent with the characteristics of the deceased; The one wearing sneakers is 165-175cm tall and weighs 50-65 kg. ”

Ai Hui said: "So thin? If you weigh only 50 kg. Is it possible that the one wearing sneakers is a woman? ”

Zhu Feipeng shook his head: "I don't rule out this possibility, but women rarely wear size 40 shoes, and it is more difficult to kill a man who weighs more than himself in a fight." ”

Huang Yuande said: "Two men fighting, it may be a vendetta, an economic dispute, a love killing, the two of them walked into the abandoned garbage dump together, most of them are acquaintances, and they are very close and trusting people, otherwise who would want to enter that stench place?" ”

Hearing this, the focus of the case investigation focuses on one point: Who is the deceased?

Gao Guangqiang concluded: "From the previous analysis, we can roughly infer the following points. ”

"First, the existence of abandoned old wells and garbage dumps is known only to locals, which indicates that the murderers are permanent residents of Wangyang District, or people who have lived nearby for a long time and later moved away;

Second, the deceased's clothes were stripped naked, and he did not even have a pair of underwear, indicating that the murderer was very afraid that the identity of the deceased would be discovered. On the contrary, this is intended to cover up, indicating that the deceased had a close relationship with the murderer, and that the deceased was a local, and it was easy to recognize him by his clothing;

Third, the time of death was 4-5 days, and the feedback from the local police station did not match the conditions for the disappearance report. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Guangqiang nodded on the small blackboard: "The top priority is to find out the identity of the deceased." ”

Zhu Feipeng continued: "In a case like this, as long as the identity of the deceased is found, the detection progress is almost 80% complete." ”

In the next three days, a dragnet investigation began, and everyone in the serious crime team participated in the nearby visit.

Wangyang District is vast and sparsely populated, because the garbage dump has been emitting odors all year round, only the motor factory, machine repair factory, scrap station, etc. are still operating, and the rest, like many small factories based on food, such as canning factories, sauerkraut factories, soy sauce factories, etc., have closed down. With the closure of these old factories in the 60s and 70s, some dilapidated residential buildings were left behind, and the people who lived here were old, weak, sick and disabled, young and well-connected, who had left this Wangyang District, where the air quality was extremely poor and the doors and windows were open every day.

On the morning of the third day, Zhao Xiangwan, Zhu Feipeng, and Gao Guangqiang came to the soy sauce factory.

The dilapidated gates, the dilapidated factories, the broken sauce jars, and the crazy weeds are all desolate.

Gao Guangqiang sighed: "Alas! This place is considered a waste, alas. ”

Zhu Feipeng also looked sad: "Who wants to stay in this ghost place?" If it weren't for the fact that there was really no way, I guess I would have moved away a long time ago, right? ”

Although Zhao Xiangwan grew up in the countryside, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, which is much better than this so-called city far from the central city.

There are three old dormitory buildings in the soy sauce factory, all of which have only four floors, with brick and wood structures, sloping roofs, and clear water brick walls that have begun to weather, and the corridors are full of briquettes, firewood, old shoes and other miscellaneous items.

They knocked on the door one by one, and most of the people who answered the door were old men with haggard faces. When asked if any of them had disappeared recently, they shook their heads and said no. Their children have long since left their original locations through studying, working, transferring, etc., and occasionally contacted them, but they are not willing to come back at all. If it weren't for the fact that they were old and had no money, who would want to live in this desolate, smelly place?

took out the photos of the corpse again, and the old people were so frightened that they read Amitabha Buddha directly, and they didn't dare to look at it at all, and they all said that they didn't recognize it.

Knocking on the second floor of the east unit of the last building, the door was opened by a woman in her thirties and forties, thin and tall, her eyes were a little protruding, her neck was large, her face was flushed, and she didn't look very well.

Her voice was slightly sharp: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Xiangwan showed his police officer card, briefly explained his intentions, and asked if he knew anyone who had not returned home for nearly a week or was missing.

The woman replied angrily: "No." ”

A little girl of about five or six years old ran out of the room, also very thin, but her eyes were very bright, wearing a beautiful flower dress, her hair was combed into two small braids, and the ends of her hair were tied with bows, and it could be seen that she was very well taken care of by her mother.

The little girl took her mother's hand, opened her eyes wide, and looked at Zhao Xiangwan in uniform in front of her, her eyes were full of admiration: "Sister police, you look so good in a police uniform." ”

Zhao Xiangwan smiled and didn't say anything.

The little girl continued: "Sister policeman, can you let my father come home?" He hadn't been back in a long time. ”

As soon as the little girl's words came out, Zhao Xiangwan became a little vigilant: "How long has your father been away from home?" ”

The little girl counted with her fingers for a long time, tilting her head and looking innocent: "It's been a week." ”

Gao Guangqiang looked at the tall and thin woman and smiled gently: "Your husband has been away from home for a week?" Where did it go? ”

The woman lowered her head and stretched out her hand to gently caress the top of her daughter's head: "My husband has gone out to do business. It's not easy for him, he has to make money. ”

[So fast...... Discovered? 】

The intermittent voice of his heart reached Zhao Xiangwan's ears, causing Zhao Xiangwan to raise his eyes and carefully look at the woman in front of him.

Discovered so soon? What was found? Corpses?

Zhao Xiangwan's eyes narrowed slightly: "What kind of business does your husband do?" Where to travel? ”

The woman didn't dare to meet Zhao Xiangwan's eyes, pushed her daughter's shoulders and went into the house, and said perfunctorily: "Do some building materials business, run outside all year round." The soy sauce factory closed down, and everyone couldn't survive, so they could only cross the sea to show their powers. ”

After Zhu Feipeng heard this, he was even more sympathetic.

It has been seven or eight years since the garbage dump soy sauce factory closed down, and the two of them are still living here, which shows that life is really bad.

It's normal for a man to go out on business and not be at home. Thinking like this, Zhu Feipeng wanted to turn around and leave, but Zhao Xiangwan didn't move.

Zhao Xiangwan asked, "What's your husband's name?" Are there any photos? We found a dead body, here are the photos, I would like you to identify it. ”

The woman didn't want to pay attention to her at all, and hurriedly entered the door: "No, no, my husband is alive and well, don't curse him!" "Shut the door.

"Bang!" With a bang, the wooden door closed in front of Zhao Xiangwan.

Zhu Feipeng smiled: "Look at you, how can you ask this and make her angry, right?" ”

The police must also pay attention to the process in handling cases, and must not disturb the people at will. If the other party resists, of course, you can't break in.

Facing the closed door, Zhao Xiangwan pursed his lips: "Old Gao, think of a way." ”

Gao Guangqiang asked: "What way?" ”

Zhao Xiangwan said: "This woman is lying. ”

Lie?

finally got a clue, Gao Guangqiang and Zhu Feipeng immediately asked: "Where are you lying?" ”

Zhao Xiangwan said: "Her eyes wandered, she didn't dare to look at me, and her pupils narrowed when she mentioned her husband, obviously disgust rather than joy." I suspect that the deceased was her husband. ”

Gao Guangqiang asked: "Are you sure?" ”

Zhao Xiangwan nodded: "Yes." ”

After thinking about it, Zhao Xiangwan showed out a small notebook: "We have investigated a total of eighty-six households in the past three days, and no one has lost contact for a long time. But the mother and daughter of the soy sauce factory, the daughter said that her father did not come home for a week, which is the right time for the disappearance. The mother said that she was going to do business, obviously lying, and when she heard that the police had found the body, she didn't ask about it, so she obviously didn't care, in short...... I highly doubt it. ”

Gao Guangqiang heard that she was reasonable, and nodded: "Go!" Let's go back first and let someone from the police station come and connect with her. ”

The police at the police station were familiar with the local situation, and after checking the household registration information, they learned that the tall and thin woman who opened the door was named Gui Youlian, and her husband Liao Chaoyong was said to have made a little money in the business in recent years, but he didn't take the money back.

Liao Chaoyong and Gui Youlian are both locals, but both parents have passed away, and the brothers and sisters have left this area one after another, and they can't be contacted.

The police took the photos of the deceased and focused on visiting the old workers of the soy sauce factory. To be honest, a photo of a disfigured corpse is really difficult to recognize unless you are a close relative or someone who is particularly familiar with it.

Gui Youlian refused to look at the photo, and kept emphasizing: "My husband is doing business outside, we have contact, he is fine, don't talk nonsense." ”

Considering the seriousness of the case, the serious crime team went through the formalities the next day and went to the door to collect fingerprints.

Knocking on the door again, Gui Youlian's expression was even more resistant: "What are you going to do?" I said, my husband is alive and well, he is just out on business, what are you going to do this time and twice! ”

The little girl's nickname is Zhuzhu, this time she was not as friendly as last time, hiding behind her mother and secretly looking at Zhao Xiangwan, her expression was a little nervous and scared.

What are the police going to do? Did Dad have an accident? Mom has been crying in the house for the past few days, I'm so scared! My mother is not in good health, there is no money at home, and my mother does not even have money to buy medicine. If Dad doesn't come back, will Mom die? I'm so scared! 】

The little girl's heartfelt words, those two sentences of "I'm so afraid" made Zhao Xiangwan feel a little sad.

But what about sadness?

What Zhao Xiangwan wants to pursue is the truth of the case.

Gao Guangqiang comforted Gui Youlian: "Don't worry, we are just collecting fingerprints." Also, a blood sample from your daughter is required. ”

Gui Youlian nervously protected her daughter, holding Zhuzhu firmly in her arms, her nose was slightly open, and the whole person fell into a state of extreme excitement: "Don't, don't, don't draw blood for Zhuzhu." ”

Gao Guangqiang's attitude has always been very gentle: "Okay, then don't collect blood samples, it's okay to take a few hairs, right?" ”

Gui Youlian's eyes were a little red, she gasped, and said loudly, "What are you going to do?" What exactly are you going to do? ”

She suddenly realized something: "I said, my husband is still alive!" He called me yesterday. ”

Zhao Xiangwan asked: "How did you make the call?" ”

Gui Youlian said: "It's just a phone call." ”

Zhao Xiangwan asked: "He called?" ”

Gui Youlian nodded desperately: "Yes, he called." ”

Zhao Xiangwan: "You don't have a phone installed at home. So where did you get this call? ”

Gui Youlian opened her mouth and stammered: "Small, commissary." "There was only one kiosk in the neighborhood that had a telephone, and she had to go there if she wanted to answer the phone.

But if she answers like this, the police will ask when she hit her? Then, they can ask their boss, they can check the phone records, and when the time comes, the lie will be quickly exposed.

Only then did Gui Youlian discover that a lie requires countless lies to complete. Her eyes rolled and she hugged her daughter tightly.

Because of the strength, Zhuzhu couldn't breathe and began to cry: "Mom, I hurt." ”

Gui Youlian hurriedly let go of her hand, patted her daughter on the back, and comforted her awkwardly: "I'm sorry, my mother is a little stronger, Zhuzhu doesn't cry." ”

Zhao Xiangwan waited patiently aside.

When Zhuzhu stopped crying, Zhao Xiangwan continued to ask: "Liao Chaoyong hasn't come back for a week, right?" As far as I understand, you haven't been out of the house this week, and your child hasn't been in kindergarten. ”

Gui Youlian couldn't deceive herself anymore, and began to cry: "He doesn't want me anymore, he has a wild woman outside, he doesn't want me and the child anymore......"

Her cry was very penetrating, and the public security officers present were a little sick.

Zhao Xiangwan bent down and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Zhuzhu is still here, as long as you are here and the child is here, this family will not be scattered." ”

Zhao Xiangwan's words carried an inexplicable sense of strength, which made Gui Youlian gradually stop crying, she raised her face, looked at Zhao Xiangwan, her eyes were blurred, and asked, "He, is he dead?" ”
