The sky in the distance finally began to light up, and it gradually turned from a dark blue to a light blue. It seemed that within a few minutes, the sky and the earth suddenly lit up, and the whole city woke up.
The sun is about to rise, and the sun will dispel the darkness and bring warmth.
Lu Siyu squatted down and carefully checked the condition of the female corpse.
Song Wen also looked aside and said, "The murderer covered the victim's eyes. Does this seem like an expression of apology?"
There is a theory in criminal psychology that if the victim knows the murderer, or the murderer is apologetic, he will sometimes turn the body over with the back facing up, and sometimes use cloth, handkerchiefs, clothes, etc. to cover the victim's head and face. Especially with the eyes covered. This phenomenon is more common in the corpses of some women, children, and elderly people.
"It's described in most criminal psychology theories, but it's also possible... This is just the murderer's personal signature." Before the forensic doctor came, Lu Siyu squatted down and became a forensic doctor first. He had a hunch in his heart that such a murder might not be the case. Happened for the first time.
"The murderer's methods are neat and neat. There are strangulation marks on the neck, the hyoid bone should have been fractured, and the fingertips have cyanosis. He was strangled to death. The time of death was two hours ago, and the murder weapon is..." Lu Siyu said and licked With one lip, his slender fingers touched the girl's neck and began to examine.
The pale corpse still carried a trace of body temperature that was not easily detectable. The girl's jade-like neck had clear and special lines on the streaks. Some places were wide, some places were narrow, and it was very regular. It was obviously very elastic. The items left behind, he observed it carefully, and asserted, "Stockings."
When you mention this murder weapon, it brings some other meanings.
Since the introduction of stockings in 1937, this thin and soft accessory has been on the cusp of the storm, and has even become a symbol of modern women's sexiness. Some people fell in love with it madly, and even made it more popular than underwear for a time. In many serial killings against women, stockings have also become a murder weapon.
Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, stockings are undoubtedly one of the choices for warmth and beauty. Especially in some service industries, stockings have become a standard.
Song Wen involuntarily touched his neck, then he looked down at the neatly dressed clothes on the corpse: "So... Was the murder weapon brought by the murderer or what she wore before?"
After taking the photo of the corpse in the physical evidence, Lu Siyu gently lifted the corner of the girl's clothes, exposing the girl's waist. There were various traces of bruise on her clean body, and it was also covered with soil. The clothes were probably After sorting out after the attack, he replied to Song Wen: "The stockings were taken off the victim. The murderer can get pleasure from the victim's struggle. This is his excitement and will not omit this step." He checked it carefully again, made sure that the socks were not there, and said, "The socks are trophies, and they may have been taken away by the murderer."
The various traces on the woman's corpse indicate how tragically she had suffered during her lifetime. Sex, the most beautiful thing in the world, is also the source of evil.
She was beaten, violated, and then strangled to death. It was a relatively long process. She struggled desperately on the grass until she died. The scene was not that bloody, but it gave people a chill. The cold rushed from the soles of her feet through every vein. Into the body, straight to the heart.
Song Wen's brows furrowed deeper: "There are signs of beatings and injuries... But why do you need to dress her again?"
He has seen all kinds of murder scenes. Most of the female victims are disheveled, but this female victim is neatly dressed. This approach is obviously unreasonable, and it is the first time he has seen such a scene.
"Not only that..." Lu Siyu said, gently picking up the clothes covering the deceased's face with his gloved fingers, motioning Song Wen to look at the corpse's face.
The sun shines, and the female corpse's eyes are open. Under the morning light, the long eyelashes are clearly rooted, casting a small arc of shadow. Her pupils were pitch black, and they had been enlarged because of her death. The woman's mouth was slightly open, her plum-colored lipstick was smudged, and a thin layer of loose powder was spread all over her face, making her look beautiful. When the clothes were lifted, the sweet smell in the air became more obvious.
It is not difficult for people to find the abnormality of this corpse. It does not look like a corpse that has suffered a lot. There are no tears in the corners of the eyes, and the hair is neatly combed...
Lu Siyu took a breath and said, "He may have made up her makeup..."
Fu Linjiang was originally collecting the victims' belongings scattered all over the place. Hearing this, he couldn't help but be filled with righteous indignation: "This is really a pervert!" Apart from the word pervert, he didn't know what words to use to describe the murderer. . Facing such a well-dressed corpse made his heart even more uncomfortable.
The little policeman who first arrived at the scene said: "We... We were there just now and found some traces. There were also some wiped tissues and a piece of bloody gauze. There were traces of dragging and struggling in the grass. It's possible that was the first crime scene."
Hearing this, Song Wen raised his head and asked, "Gauze with blood?"
There were no obvious wounds on the girl's body, and there were no traces of gauze bandages. He quickly realized that this might be left by the murderer, "Linjiang, go and see, the murderer may have been injured. During the fight, the gauze fell off. down."
Fu Linjiang looked all the way in the direction. It was a palm-sized piece of gauze with a circle of blood on it, as if it was pinched or bitten by something. He carefully put the gauze in the evidence bag, and finally removed it from the grass by the roadside. Picking up an ID card that was thrown there, he looked at the deceased and said, "The identity of the deceased has been confirmed."
Song Wen took it over and looked at it, remembering the girl's name, Wang Xiaopei, he said, "Call Zhu Xiao and find out the information of the deceased."
Fu Linjiang responded, went to the side and made a phone call. After a while, he turned around and reported: "The deceased was a waiter in a hot pot restaurant. She has notified her unit, and Zhu Xiao is informing the family of the deceased." He said As he spoke, his eyes turned a little red, "I was only 22 years old and died so tragically... The murderer is really a beast."
Song Wen patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort. For family members and relatives, the sudden murder of a young girl was undoubtedly bad news, not to mention such a tragic death.
After several people said this, another police car came to the side of the road. Lin Xiuran got out of the car with the investigation box. He adjusted the cuffs of his suit: "I slept in the funeral home last night, but I didn't expect it to happen again this morning. There's a case..." The funeral home is a little bit diagonally from the suburbs here, so he came a little later than the others.
"Well, we just arrived." Song Wen waved at him as he spoke, Lin Xiuran nodded, took out his gloves and put them on, bowed and looked at the dead girl, his expression gradually became serious, and he took a deep breath: "Is that how the clothes are covered?"
Song Wen nodded: "Yes, that's how it was when I came."
Lin Xiuran straightened his body: "This is the third incident in the past six months. This is a serial murder case."
Song Wen turned his head and asked, "Which group did the two previous cases belong to?"
Lin Xiuran said: "It's all from the second group. Do you remember the female saleswoman Li Ling I told you about? That was the first case. Then, another 28-year-old female teacher was killed. The second group was checking other things. The two cases have been pursued at the same time as the case, but I didn’t expect the murderer to do it again.”
Song Wen still had the impression that when he and Lu Siyu and Lin Xiuran went to Luning, Lin Xiuran and him mentioned the murder of women, he frowned: "What do these three murders have in common?"
"They were all women. They were killed at night, strangled with silk stockings, and covered their faces with clothes." Lin Xiuran looked at the corpses and said, "The first two corpses were not arranged so neatly, but they were cleaned up and dressed up, so it should be possible to combine them. The case is over." He looked up at the surrounding environment, and added after a while, "In the previous two cases, the murderer still had some actions to hide the body, so the body was discovered after a while, this time, It seems to have given up."
"What about the time and place of the crime?"
"The first was the riverside of Lotus Hall more than three months ago, and the second was the garbage dump behind Xixing Street half a month ago."
Although these three places belong to the eastern district of Nancheng, they are a bit far apart. The occupations of the girls are completely different. From this, it can be inferred that the murderer is randomly selecting victims who suit his hobbies.
Song Wen listened to Lin Xiuran's words, lowered his head and pondered: "The victim is getting younger and younger, the time interval between crimes is getting shorter and shorter, and the murderer is evolving..."
The faces of several people present became solemn. Nancheng has not had a serial murder case for many years, and it is such a bad and perverted murder case against women.
Once such a serial crime begins, if it is not detected, the perpetrator may commit the crime again, threatening more people.
"The cooling-off period is shortening." Lu Siyu thought for a while and asked, "What about the time of the murder? Is there any pattern?"
Lin Xiuran replied: "The first time was around ten o'clock in the evening, and the second time was at eleven o'clock in the evening..." Then he lowered his body and picked up the female corpse's hand, and his wrist was still warm: "This corpse also killed a few people. Hours, the murder was about four in the morning."
After hearing these previous situations, Fu Linjiang hesitated: "It seems that this is going to be merged with the second team's case, should we still investigate?"
The city bureau has regulations that once it is confirmed that the case is committed by an accomplice, the case will eventually be merged, and it will belong to the group that receives the case first. In any case, you must inform the bureau first to avoid misunderstandings among colleagues.
Song Wen looked at the female corpse on the ground and made a decision: "Wait for me to call Gu Bureau first and ask."
Half a minute later, Song Wen hung up the phone and said, "Gu Bureau said that this case is to be treated as a recent special case, and let us and Tian Ming set up a special team to investigate together."
