As the saying goes, a good spirit is not a bad spirit.
Sun Shaozong's hunch really came true!
Although Qiu Yunfei and Zhao Wuwei followed the vine and found out the identities of the two victims in the human market, apart from bringing back a group of old and young crying fathers and children from their homes, they had nothing to gain.
Those two Liba are not completely without enemies.
But once there is not much hatred between each other, it is not worth such torture;
Secondly, their enemies are also hardworking, haha, to say that killing may be possible, but to say that they are willing to pour out a jar of Fenjiu and rent a carriage to throw the corpse-that is pure nonsense!
And these few days are approaching the New Year's Day, and the people's market is also very lively, and no one has noticed at all whether the two Liba left on their own or were hired by others.
As for what Sun Shaozong deduced based on the corpse, the man with the disabled right arm didn't even see a shadow, which caused Qiu Yunfei to speak a lot of sarcastic things behind his back.
And then…
By the next morning, there was another body in the morgue!
The victim this time was a beggar. After his limbs were broken, he poured alcohol and froze to death. The injury to his right arm was also much heavier than the other side.
The only difference is that the last time the corpse was thrown was Nancheng, but this time it was changed to Dongcheng.
"The two corpses are about nine miles apart, and it is almost certain that the corpses were thrown with a carriage."
"And given the scope of the deceased's frequent activities during his lifetime, it is inferred that there is not much overlap with the two Liba, and the possibility of vendetta can basically be ruled out - and it is very likely that it is a cathartic crime without a fixed target."
Sun Shaozong muttered to himself. On the sketch map of Shuntian Mansion, he marked the approximate locations of the two places where the corpses were thrown, and connected them with straight lines, taking the center point to draw a circle with a radius of four and a half miles.
He tapped the self-made charcoal pen on the map and asked, "Zhao Wuwei, let's not mention the inner city and the outer city, in the area I have roughly circled, the people with the disabled right arm, How long will it take to check everything?"
Zhao Wuwei stepped forward and scrutinized it for a while, his face was like a bitter gourd, and he said cautiously, "Reporting to the lord, this has to be put on a regular basis, and if I do my best in my duties, it will be almost three or four days, but It's the end of the year, and people are really tight..."
Sun Shaozong didn't bother to listen to his complaints, so he asked straight to the point: "Can you finish the investigation by the twenty-eighth?"
Zhao Wuwei's face became even more bitter, and he slumped his shoulders and said, "This is really..."
"Speak the words of the hand."
Qiu Yunfei listened to it for a long time, and suddenly interjected: "There are some in the city defense camp, all of which are my father's old department. If I say hello, young master, I can transfer hundreds of people to help investigate the case in minutes."
Saying that, this guy pointed his nostrils at Sun Shaozong, with a 'Come and beg me, as long as you beg me obediently, I'll help you' arrogant expression.
Unexpectedly, Sun Shaozong shook his head without hesitation and said: "No! In this year, the use of the city defense battalion to investigate the case is too dazzling, and it is easy to cause panic among the people - if it really messes up this year's festival , even if we can catch the murderer, we are afraid that we will have nothing to do."
"Cut~"
Qiu Yunfei's face collapsed, and he simply stopped talking.
"Xiaoya Nei was also anxious to solve the case, so she didn't think so much."
Lin Delu, who was on the side, hurriedly made a round of controversies: "Zhao Bantou, this matter is difficult to resolve, but what should be investigated must be investigated. You go to the two counties of Daxing and Wanping to negotiate and see if they can recruit some people there. Come out, try your best to screen the area delineated by adults before twenty-eight."
"Honestly obey orders."
Zhao Wuwei was helpless and had to take orders.
Lin Delu asked Sun Shaozong for instructions again: "Sir, do you have any other orders?"
"It's gone for the time being, and there are really fewer clues at the moment."
Sun Shaozong shook his head helplessly. If in an ordinary ancient city, a clue of a disabled right arm would be enough to pinpoint the murderer.
But this Shuntian Prefecture has a population of more than 1.3 million, especially as the closing of the year is approaching, and a large number of foreign merchants and returning home tourists have poured in. In addition, many people from various places have come to Beijing in advance to prepare for the test. …
It's easier said than done to rely on the hundreds of police officers under the jurisdiction of the Criminal and Name Department for screening.
"Governor Lin, you are watching from the front. If there is any news from Zhao Wuwei, report it to me immediately." Sun Shaozong said, and waved at Qiu Yunfei again, saying, "Let's go, go to the morgue with me and have a good test. , and see if I can dig out some clues from the dead beggar."
Having said that, he stepped out of the courtyard of the Xing Ming Division.
Although Qiu Yunfei was very reluctant, he was afraid that Sun Shaozong would give him a few more slaps in the name of official business, which would make him completely lose face, so he had to dawdled and mumbled after him.
So on the twenty-fourth day, Sun Shaozong took Qiu Yunfei to the morgue and spent most of the day, but in the end, except for a pile of vomit [Chou Yunfei vomited], and the confirmation that the murder weapon was a door latch or something like that Apart from the stick, there is nothing to gain.
So much so that Qiu Yunfei wanted to make a decision afterwards. Sun Shaozong deliberately abused the corpse because he wanted to see him make a fool of himself!
Time just passed by every minute...
In a blink of an eye, it was the twenty-fifth of the twelfth lunar month.
"grown ups!"
Early in the morning, as soon as Sun Shaozong got off his horse at the gate of the mansion, he saw Lin Delu come out in a hurry and shouted: "Two more died last night! They also broke their limbs and froze to death, and then threw their bodies. !"
Did it again? !
Killed five people in three days!
This murderer is really rampant!
Sun Shaozong walked in with a sinking face and asked, "Where was the body found? Has it been sent to the morgue?"
"It's still Dongcheng!"
Lin Delu said, carefully looking at Sun Shaozong's face, and said, "But it's not within the range you set before."
However, Sun Shaozong didn't respond at all. What he delineated yesterday was a rough search area. It can only be said that it was the most suspicious place at that time, and it was not certain that the murderer must be within this scope.
Lin Delu breathed a sigh of relief and said again: "The body has already been sent, but..."
"But what?"
"But sir, please go back to the Criminal Division first - Liu Zhizhong wants to meet you first."
Sun Shaozong suddenly stagnates, and since Liu Chongshan was determined to be promoted, he has become a hands-off shopkeeper, euphemistically: let Sun Shaozong familiarize himself with the heavy burden of governance in advance.
Now he suddenly summoned himself...
"Has this case spread out?"
"No."
Lin Delu smiled bitterly and said, "Five died in three days, and they all died so tragically—you also know that our Shuntian Prefecture has never been able to hide things, and now it has spread all over the city."
After speaking, he hurriedly added a flattery: "But the people are not too panicked, they all feel that you are here, and you are designated to solve the case as soon as possible!"
tsk~
The expectations of the common people are both motivation and pressure!
