"Oh? I thought you had great powers when I heard what Cheng Ze said about your cleverness before, but you're telling me, how did you get away with it?"
Hearing Lou Yang's words, Cheng Ze became interested immediately, his eyes turned, and then he slowly broke away from the excitement.
That's right. . . How did this kid know such details about the murderer, even though the murderer said he didn't know Zhang Zichen at all.
The first volume of Suspicious Clouds and Conspiracy, Chapter Fourteen Instant Noodles, Pen and Paper
Zhang Zichen raised his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. If he had known that these two people would be so troublesome to deal with, he would have slept less just now.
"Thanks to Brother Cheng and Brother Cheng's flashlight just now, I fell next to the victim and saw some small details. First, I lay down there and compared my body with the victim. My height is one meter Eighty-three, and the victim is about 1.75 meters. Secondly, what I can see is the knife in the back of the victim. If you choose this position for killing, no matter how tall the opponent and yourself are, the action of the murderer must be, Holding the knife in the backhand, the forearm is raised, the elbow joint is 90 degrees, and the hand is raised and swung down. If the knife is held with a straight arm and the forehand, the stabbing cannot reach this height. Moreover, the handle of the knife exposed outside the victim's body is Upward sloping, at first I had some doubts, whether the murderer’s height is about the same as the victim’s or taller or shorter than the victim’s, as long as the murderer is not very short, the knife handle outside the victim’s body may be upward sloping "
Cheng Ze's expression was okay at this time, because Zhang Zichen had performed such a small skill several times, and he was not very surprised except that he was interested. On the contrary, Lou Yang stared at Zhang Zichen incredulously, not sure whether he was admiring or surprised.
"Oh, then how do you know the approximate height of the murderer..." Cheng Ze asked.
"Through the Shadow"
"Oh?! So you have witnessed the murderer long ago?!"
Cheng Ze's calm excitement returned again. If Zhang Zichen had ever witnessed the murderer, or the murderer's process, it would be of great help to the further investigation of this case.
"Xiao Cheng, don't get excited, listen to what he has to say first"
Lou Yang interrupted Cheng Ze at the right time, and then gave Zhang Zichen a look, signaling him to continue talking.
"It was through your shadow, I believe you have seen the scene just now, there is no trace of a fight, that is to say, the victim was fatally hit by the murderer from behind with a dagger in the night, and fell directly face to the ground. Leaving aside the murderer's skills and the way he used the dagger, if he wants to kill the victim with one blow without his knowledge, there must be a prerequisite, that is, he must not let the victim find out. Although I have no doubts about this case The ins and outs of the incident are not clear, but based on the situation and environment at the time, it is certain that the victim must have been nervous, not to mention that there was another person's shadow under his feet. If that was the case, what we saw There will definitely be traces of struggling and fighting at the scene. Although the night provides convenience for the murderer, the moon in the night reveals the height of the murderer. Judging from the direction in which the victim lay down, he was standing with his back to the moon, that is, Say, you can see the shadow in front of yourself by the moonlight. Comparing the distance between the pair of footprints behind the victim, the murderer must make a move when the victim does not see his own shadow, so it is logical. Remember you put me from When I pulled it up on the ground, didn't I sway back and forth two steps, I was following your shadow and comparing the murderer's height, oh yes, your height is about 1.75 meters, right?"
"Hmm...it's 1.76 meters..."
Hearing Zhang Zichen chattering a lot, Cheng Ze was shocked again to be honest. These things can't be seen in the lesson plans, in the classroom, or even in the novels, but now they appear vividly in front of his eyes, and the details that Zhang Zichen paid attention to. . . Really are. . . Very inspiring to myself.
"Interesting, interesting. It's really the first time I've heard of your logical way. I've seen it. I've seen it..."
Lou Yang was also smiling at the moment, and his love for Zhang Zichen couldn't help but show in his eyes.
Zhang Zichen didn't care at all that the two interrupted his reasoning, but continued to reason logically.
"The distance between the victim and the footprints behind him was about 50 centimeters. The murderer who struck within this distance was thin. The murderer could kill the victim with one blow, and the dagger was so deep that only one The dagger is held outside, which is enough to show that the murderer is refined and powerful. Looking at the two footprints of the murderer on the ground, it is obvious that the footprint of the right foot is deeper and the lines are clearer, indicating that the murderer is left-handed. But when I observed the footprints of the murderer's left foot, I found a Interestingly, the footprint on the left is only the smaller half of the footprint on the right, and the other half of the footprint forms a small pit, and in this pit, there is a small stone with some blood stains on it. I think it can cause such a result The process of the murder should be that the murderer accidentally sprained his left foot during the attack, and he was impartial, and the ankle happened to be broken by that small stone."
"It doesn't sound that difficult? How did you know that the murderer was from the Ding Gang and the scar on his face?" Cheng Ze asked.
"Hmm... I don't know if you have noticed the handle of the dagger exposed outside the corpse?" Zhang Zichen pondered for a moment and asked Cheng Ze.
This question didn't matter, but it just made Cheng Ze blush. At that time, his attention was not here at all. As a young criminal policeman, he happened to encounter a murder case when he was dispatched to the police. He was both excited and nervous. Xin said that even if he observed something at that time, it was only the most basic subconscious things cultivated from the police academy, not to mention the handle of the dagger, it would be good if he could notice that a dagger was inserted. . .
"Uh... isn't that just an ordinary dagger?"
"Definitely not. It's not that simple to completely submerge a dagger into a person's body. I believe you should have learned relevant knowledge in the police academy. And this dagger must be a straight knife with a short blade and good sharpness. Judging from the handle of the dagger, it is undoubtedly 888."
"Yes, you can tell the type of dagger just by looking at the handle, which shows that you have put in a lot of effort."
Lou Yang put his hands behind his back and tilted his head, still praising Zhang Zichen with a smile.
"I just know a little bit from time to time... I'm a punk, and I've seen a lot of powerful people like us. But I can get this kind of military dagger, and it's a world-renowned dagger, and I've only seen it once."
When Zhang Zichen said these words, he didn't care at all about the expressions of the two policemen around him, but Lou Yang didn't care at all, but Cheng Ze was a bit hot-blooded and couldn't hold back his face.
"I have nothing to do on the street, and the biggest task every day is to pick up the excitement. I forgot which evening it was. I witnessed a fight in the alley at the back door of the Happy World, and I happened to see this dagger, but I only left it in a hurry. I caught a glimpse of that person's side face."
call. . . After Zhang Zichen finished speaking, he recalled what he just said in his mind like lightning, and after confirming that there were no major loopholes, he let out a long sigh of relief. . . Really strenuous. . . But fortunately, it was almost round at last.
"Hahaha, that's really a coincidence, you're lucky"
After listening to Zhang Zichen's explanation, Lou Yang laughed without the slightest doubt, and even the following tone sounded extraordinarily natural.
Cheng Ze's ability to observe words and emotions was not very good. Hearing Lou Dui's words, he quickly recalled the whole story of this incident, and secretly called out a coincidence in his heart.
"Luck...you don't need this kind of luck, and I never rely on luck"
Zhang Zichen stretched out his hand, opened the curtain leading to the office hall, and walked in first without seeing the outside.
"Anyway, I still want to say sorry to you first, Xiao Tang, bring the things over later, and ask this young man to sign it."
As soon as Captain Lou entered the office hall, he gave instructions to a comrade next to him, and the interrogation among the three came to an end.
"Forehead..."
Zhang Zichen looked up at the watch on the wall, sighed again in his heart, it was a troublesome night, it was already 7:30, and he had to return at 8:00. . .
"What? Is there anything else?"
In fact, the handling of the case this time was all based on energy. When the matter was almost over for the time being, Cheng Ze, who was only holding his last breath, also showed fatigue on his face.
"That... I haven't eaten all the time... I'm so hungry now, anyway, you guys have locked me up for so long, why don't you give me some instant noodles"
As soon as Zhang Zichen said that, everyone's eyes in the office hall instantly focused on him. . . Cheng Ze's eyes widened even more, looking at the person in front of him who he couldn't see through more and more.
"No problem, Xiao Cheng, go get a box of instant noodles, there is hot water over there..."
Lou Yang was also dazed for a moment, but then the smile appeared on his face again. After giving Cheng Ze an order, he grabbed the glasses on the table and looked at the documents again.
"Are you cheating on eating and drinking, boy? Before you left, you still fooled around with a box of instant noodles." Cheng Ze gave Zhang Zichen an angry look.
"Excuse me, do you have instant noodles with stewed chicken with mushrooms? I didn't drink water all night, I'm afraid I might get angry."
