I followed Li Meilin into the surveillance room and saw two police officers, a man and a woman, carefully reviewing the video footage captured by surveillance last night.
I have been assisting Li Meilin in solving the case for a long time. I know the two policemen in front of me. The man is Zhang Hongwei, who is straightforward and the woman is Li Shengnan, who is warm-hearted. When the two saw Li Meilin walk in, they stood up and saluted her.
Li Meilin nodded and signaled for the two to continue working. She silently stood aside and stared at the 16 images on the monitor with me.
About ten minutes later, I suddenly saw a girl pulling a suitcase on the surveillance screen, and hurriedly reminded: "Stop! Brother Zhang, please put the surveillance screen No. 10 backwards. , and then switch the screen to full screen mode."
"Okay!" Zhang Hongwei followed his words. The enlarged surveillance screen showed that at 1:33 in the morning, a girl with a suitcase came out of a bedroom on the fifth floor.
The girl did not drag her suitcase downstairs, but went straight to the roof of the dormitory building. Since there is no surveillance installed on the rooftop, it is unknown what happened to the girl after she got to the rooftop.
I have a hunch that the girl was the victim, and she should have been killed on the rooftop.
"Go! Go to the rooftop and have a look." I said to Li Meilin, and then walked out first.
Li Meilin followed behind me and asked in confusion, "Shouldn't we confirm the identity of the deceased first? Why should we go to the rooftop first?"
I turned my head to look at her and said patiently to her: "The corpse has no head, and the corpse has been severely damaged. Except for the DNA test, I am afraid that it will be difficult to determine the identity of the deceased for a while. During this period, many students left the dormitory. , even if there is one person missing in the bedroom shown in the surveillance, it cannot be determined that the deceased is the girl who dragged her suitcase to the rooftop late at night."
"Then let's go to the rooftop..."
"Looking for clues!" Li Meilin wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by me, and kept walking towards the rooftop.
Walking up to the rooftop, I saw the morning light sprinkled all over the floor, laying a golden carpet on the rooftop. The sun shone on his body, and suddenly there was a warm itching sensation.
"Team Li, we can already confirm that the rooftop is the scene of the murder, but so far, apart from a burnt suitcase, we haven't found the slightest clue about the murderer." A middle-aged police officer wandered around with a beer belly She walked to Li Meilin leisurely and reported it leisurely.
This person's name is Song Zhe. He is a small leader of the technical team. He doesn't necessarily have much real skills, but his flattering skills are quite good.
Li Meilin didn't like Song Zhe very much for a long time. Ni He glanced at him and asked lightly, "Where is the suitcase?"
Song Zhe didn't seem to care about Li Meilin's posing as a lieutenant, and said with a smile, "This way, come with me."
Under the guidance of Song Zhe, we soon saw a burnt suitcase in the right corner of the exit, next to the suitcase, there was a bloodstain that was startling, and it was already showing signs of drying.
Seeing the shocking bloodstains, Li Meilin's face was frosty, and she spit out a sentence: "It seems that this is the scene of the first murder. The murderer raped, killed and dismembered the dead here. The one who took the suitcase and walked to the rooftop The girls are the victims."
I didn't fully agree with her opinion, and said to her: "Is the scene of the first murder still to be investigated, and before the inspection report comes out, we'd better not jump to conclusions."
"The facts are in front of you, what can't you draw conclusions about?"
Li Meilin's emotions seemed a little excited. Instead of arguing with her on this issue, I walked over to the burned suitcase and checked it carefully.
The trunk was burnt beyond recognition, with a large amount of ashes inside. If you look closely, there is actually a small dot of a different color in the ashes. If you don't look carefully, it's really hard to find.
I took out an object made of a special material that looked like a silver needle from my pocket, and carefully pulled it up from the ashes. A piece of blood-stained cloth that wasn’t completely burned out gradually emerged from the ashes, about the size of a child’s slap. .
I tried to recall the clothes of the girl in the surveillance video pulling the suitcase to the rooftop, and compared it with the fabric left in the ashes. As a result, I gained something new.
"Come here and see if this piece of unburnt cloth is similar to the cloth on the clothes the girls are wearing in the surveillance video?" I asked Li Meilin, pointing to the cloth stained with blood.
Li Meilin heard the words and came over quickly to confirm, and after looking carefully for a long time, she said, "Although the fabric is only a little bit stained with blood, it can still be confirmed that the fabric is different from the fabric on the clothes that the girl is wearing. "
Li Meilin suddenly seemed to have thought of something, stared straight at me and asked, "Is this piece of cloth left over from the murderer's own clothes that were not completely burned?"
"There is a possibility, but it cannot be ruled out that it is the clothes that the deceased wore under the coat."
My answer was ambiguous. After all, in the video, I can only see the clothes that the girl was wearing outside. As for how many clothes she wore inside, it is unknown. And if this piece of fabric was left by the murderer, I still wonder why the murderer burned his own clothes.
"Old Song!" Li Meilin suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong with Team Li?" Song Zhe's expression looked a little unnatural, and his voice was a little out of tune.
"Take the evidence bag and put this piece of cloth away, and be more careful next time you investigate the scene." Although Li Meilin didn't get angry, it was not difficult to hear her dissatisfaction at this time from her tone.
Song Zhe blushed and whispered, "Yes, I will pay attention next time."
I didn't pay too much attention to this, and focused on the pool of blood on the ground. The blood had dried, and some of them formed a blood line on the ground and spread to the wall.
I went to the root of the fence and saw there were bloodstains left on the fence. Looking further down, the position where the corpse landed coincided with that here, and it seemed that the corpse was thrown from here by the murderer.
"Judging from the location where the corpse was found, the deceased should have been thrown from here. What I just don't understand is why the murderer wanted to throw the corpse down after killing someone? Couldn't he be alarmed by the sound of the corpse falling to the ground? the dormitory management staff, thus losing the chance to escape?"
"How can you use common sense to infer the behavior of such a perverted murderer?"
Li Meilin came over next to me and looked down. From her indifferent tone, she could see her deep hatred for the murderer.
I circled around the roof wall again and found that there was a water pipe in the northwest corner that had climbed over it. I think the murderer may have escaped from there down the sewer pipe after committing the crime.
"Let's check it carefully here, and take a few more photos to bring back."
Li Meilin's face became more and more ugly. It was not once or twice that the police officers under her were careless, and the idea of living with a salary became more and more popular, especially for the more senior criminal policemen like Song Zhe.
"Old Song! Take the people from your technical team to inspect the entire rooftop carefully. I don't want to see today's events again, otherwise I don't mind reporting the truth to the superiors and asking you to retire early." Li Meilin Suddenly screamed.
Song Zhe shivered in fright, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, nodded and bowed vigorously: "Yes, yes, I promise that nothing like this will ever happen again."
I was also speechless for Song Zhe's negative work attitude, but this is not something I should be concerned about.
"Come on, let's go to the dormitory on the fifth floor and have a look."
I called Li Meilin to go down the roof together. In any case, this kind of on-site investigation and evidence collection must be completed by the technical team.
When I came to the door of the bedroom, I raised my chin at Li Meilin: "Knock on the door!"
Li Meilin didn't speak, just walked over and knocked on the door. The person who opened the door was a girl in pink cartoon pajamas. Her long fluffy hair covered her half-length face, but she still couldn't block her pure and beautiful face. She looked like she was awakened by our knock on the door.
When the girl saw Li Meilin standing at the door and me standing behind her, her sleepy eyes immediately awoke a lot, looked at us in confusion and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
The girl's voice is as sweet as a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, which makes people feel at ease.
"Did a girl in your dormitory leave with a suitcase last night?" Li Meilin asked the girl straight to the point, her bright eyes falling on her face at the same time.
"Ah?" The girl was obviously taken aback by the question, and then she replied naively, "No, the four people in our dormitory were all there before going to bed last night, what happened?"
"A female body was found downstairs this morning. We suspect that the deceased walked out of your bedroom."
"How is this possible?" The girl's voice couldn't help but improve a lot. Seeing that she was obviously frightened, her face gradually lost its blood and became pale.
"The four people in our dormitory are obviously there. If you don't believe me, just come in and take a look." The girl opened the door completely and turned sideways to make way for Li Meilin.
"Well, is it convenient for me to go in?"
I stood behind Li Meilin and asked. After all, it was a girl's dormitory. If there was a girl in it who liked to sleep naked, it would be inappropriate for me to enter so rashly.
The girl first glanced at me, then pondered for a while, and finally nodded: "Come in."
I followed Li Meilin into the dormitory, and instantly a refreshing and seductive fragrance entered my nose, and I sniffed it a few times without leaving any traces.
Be nice! The smell in this dormitory is really good, and I don't know if it's the fragrance emanating from the girls or the smell of the perfume or skin care products they use.
I glanced at it roughly, and the furnishings in the dormitory were basically the same as the boys' dormitory I was in. The writing desk and wardrobe are placed below, and the upper floor is the bed provided for students to sleep.
"Xiaoying, who is it? It's really annoying to disturb people's sleep and beauty early in the morning."
A girl sat up rubbing her sleepy eyes. When she opened her eyes to meet mine, she suddenly shouted in surprise: "I'm going! Where is this handsome guy?"
This girl is very beautiful, her long eyelashes are flickering, and her big eyes are smart and playful. Through the drooping neckline of the pajamas, I inadvertently saw a snow-white wave, and I couldn't help but feel a charming thought in my heart.
With a hot face, I quickly looked away and smiled politely at her. This handsome guy is still quite useful in his heart, and secretly said that although this girl was startled, her vision is still relatively unique.
"Xiaoying, this handsome guy..." The girl said while winking at the girl called Xiaoying, her charming appearance showing a playful look.
"Uh... I don't know either. They said that a female corpse was found downstairs, and they suspected that the deceased walked out of our dormitory." Xiaoying's face was still pale, and she replied dully.
"What?" The girl was startled when she heard it, then she covered her chest and laughed loudly, "Hahaha... Isn't April Fool's Day over long ago? Hahaha... I'm dying of laughter!"
Li Meilin couldn't help frowning, her eyes fixed on a bed in front of the left, and she suddenly raised her finger to the bed and asked, "What about the person on this bed?"
Following the direction of Li Meilin's fingers, we collectively turned our attention to the empty bed.
"Huh? Where did Yuanyuan go early in the morning?" Xiaoying muttered to herself in confusion, looking at her expression, she still didn't believe that the deceased in Li Meilin's mouth was her roommate.
The girl who was laughing on the bed suddenly stopped, and her expression gradually became solemn. She couldn't help swallowing her saliva while her throat was squirming. She looked at Li Meilin with difficulty, her red lips parted slightly, and she asked cautiously, "This police elder sister, what did the deceased look like?"
Li Meilin pondered for a while, and hesitated before answering: "The head of the deceased was cut off by the murderer, and we haven't found it yet. We don't know what it looks like."
The girl on the bed turned pale, while Xiaoying shook her head and muttered to herself, "Impossible, Yuanyuan was still there when she slept last night, how could she be killed all at once? What? They should go out to buy breakfast, right? Yes, they should go out to buy breakfast."
Looking at the appearance of the two girls, I couldn't bear it in my heart, and suggested: "How about you call and ask?"
Hearing what I said, Xiaoying immediately climbed into bed to get her phone, and then called Yuanyuan, who she was talking about. However, the prompt tone 'the phone you dialed has been turned off' sounded on the phone, which made Xiao Ying's heart sink completely.
"You classmates?" I stretched out my finger and pointed to the other bed. The beautiful girl laughed so loud just now that she could still fall asleep. This skill is really admirable.
Xiaoying seemed to realize something, and hurriedly climbed onto the girl's bed and shook her vigorously, shouting in a slightly hurried voice: "Fairy, wake up, do you know where Yuanyuan went?"
The girl woke up faintly after Xiaoying shook her vigorously. She murmured with her sleepy eyes open, "Stop shaking, I was just woken up by you, how do you know where Yuanyuan went? Can you ask Tang Yan? "
"Don't ask me, I don't know either." The surprised and beautiful girl quickly responded.
"Oh! Xiaoying, don't shake me anymore, your body is about to fall apart. You can call Yuanyuan and ask her where she is, so you'll know where she is?" Fairy gave her advice in a sullen voice, turned over and continued. sleep.
When I saw the appearance of this girl called Fairy, my heart suddenly tightened. Even this fat head and big ears dared to call Fairy? Compared with the beautiful Xiaoying and Tang Yanyi, this fairy is not even qualified to be a green leaf, and can only be buried silently under the soil to be a tree root.
Xiaoying stopped shaking the fairy and leaned against the wall weakly, but she couldn't say a word. There was panic and deep sadness in her pupils, obviously realizing something.
When the fairy turned around and saw Li Meilin and me, she exclaimed even more exaggeratedly: "I'm going! Handsome guy and beautiful police officer? Am I dreaming or what?"
While talking, the fairy pinched her chubby cheeks hard, and when she felt pain, she knew that this was not a dream, and then she giggled.
"So this wasn't a dream! Hehe... Xiaoying, who are they? How could..." Fairy suddenly stopped, as if realizing something, she quickly pulled the blanket to her chest to cover it, and then blushed Looking at me secretly with a face.
Seeing Fairy's shy appearance, I couldn't help but shivered. With such a high-quality product, even if I stand in front of me with all my clothes off, my body will not react at all, and she still secretly makes it seem like I have taken advantage of her.
I carefully observed the environment in the dormitory, except for the fragrance, and found nothing wrong. In the end, I really couldn't stay any longer, so I turned my head and whispered to Li Meilin, "Let them get dressed and go to the monitoring room to confirm!"
After saying that, I turned around and walked out of the bedroom without looking back, leaving only a few girls with a dashing back.
