Because the murder methods of the two cases were very similar, Tan Wan applied to the bureau for a combined investigation.
These two cases quickly spread throughout the media network and caused a big topic in City A.
The police department held an impromptu meeting under external pressure and ordered the team responsible for Tan Wan to locate the suspect within 48 hours.
When he came out of the conference room, Li Dongliao was a little discouraged and threw the document on the table of his desk.
He cursed angrily: "Two days, just two days. If we don't catch anyone, we will demote you. Don't you think this is just the deputy director deliberately making things difficult for us?!"
"The case is so urgent and you still have to hand in the investigation report first." Li Dongliao stood next to Tan Wan and accompanied her to write the report. He was so angry that he said, "This is a waste of your time, so you can't find it when the time comes." The murderer will naturally remove you from your post!"
Some are indignant, while others are calm.
"The first body was found only two days before the second one appeared. If a third case occurs, it will inevitably cause panic among residents." Tan Wan frowned and typed on the computer keyboard intently, sorting out the investigation report. , "Director Zhao has to be anxious."
At this moment, the death report of the second female victim was also released.
The report stated that although the deceased had taken a large amount of sleeping pills, the cause of death was a fracture of the skull due to impact and excessive blood loss.
The deceased's lower leg bones, thigh bones, and upper limb hand bones were all missing. In addition, the roof of the deceased's mouth was severely scratched by the metal container. Polyester fiber remained in the mouth, and traces of the collar were left on his neck.
In the first case, Li Dongliao also suspected that taking sleeping pills was the deceased Wang Yi's way of ending his pain. Now this suspicion can be shattered. It was the method used by the murderer to kill the suspect.
When the deceased died from taking a large amount of sleeping pills, the murderer brutally mutilated them.
The only difference between the two cases is that the deceased took the bones of the deceased woman.
Why were only the bones of the female deceased taken away... For a while, there was no reasonable explanation for the reason.
Tanwan seemed to suddenly think of something, grabbed the keys on the table and walked out: "Li Dongliao, come with me to the Chaohe River."
There was a serious traffic jam along the way, and Li Dongliao suddenly started to complain about the murderer on a whim.
"I didn't expect that a serial killer would suddenly appear. The death of the two deceased was too tragic. Isn't this murderer afraid of meeting ghosts at night and asking for his life?" As he said this, he reached out to take out the Snickers bar in the front fender of the passenger seat. .
Staying up late talking and working on cases without eating often leads to hypoglycemia, so I often put some chocolate or something in the passenger fender.
After searching for a long time, I couldn't find a Snickers bar, but I found Tanwan's medicine.
"Why are you still taking this?" Li Dongliao held the tranquilizer tablet in his hand, "Didn't the psychiatrist say a month ago that you could slowly stop taking the medicine?"
Tan Wan gave a wry smile: "It's easy to take medicine but hard to stop. I'm completely dependent on it."
"It's not okay for you to be discovered by others like this." Li Dongliao looked around and checked that there was no one he knew, and then said, "There are many people in the bureau who want to take your deputy team position, you have to be careful. "
As soon as Li Dongliao mentioned something about Tanwan, he would automatically start nagging like a mother.
Suddenly, Li Dongliao's eyes stopped on the pills inside through the transparent medicine bottle: "Have you changed the medicine?"
Li Dongliao's sudden words made Tan Wan stunned, and he denied it: "No?"
The sugar coating on the outside of the pills was originally off-white, but now, with the help of the noon sun, you can clearly see that the pills inside are pure white.
Taking advantage of the pause at the red light, Tan Wan quickly took the medicine bottle from Li Dongliao's hand. It was indeed different from before.
Someone unknowingly changed all the medicine in the bottle...
This was no coincidence. Tan Wan quickly connected the story of Tan Xueli breaking into his home at the same time as Waihe.
If these two things are really related, then Tan Wan can conclude that the person who cooperated with Tan Xueli Yingwai wanted to kill himself.
By the way, now that Han Beiya lives with him, he should remind her to pay attention to the food delivered to avoid adulteration.
It's just that now that she has moved out of there, it is relatively safe to monitor multiple abortions in the hotel. And judging from the other party's efforts to change her medicine, it seems that she has never thought about having a head-on conflict with her, but only did some tricks behind her back. .
Previously, Li Dongliao only knew about Tan Xue's illegal intrusion and did not know about her collusion with outsiders, which was also a good thing.
The most important thing at the moment is the case at hand. Li Dongliao cannot be distracted by his own affairs.
Li Dong quickly asked, breaking Tan Wan's thoughts: "Who has been your co-pilot recently??"
"I haven't brought anyone with me." Tan Wan tried his best to show a relaxed expression, and then pointed blankly at Li Dongliao with his finger, "You are the only one who often rides in my car."
The air seemed to be still. Li Dongliao reached out and flicked his head on Tan Wan's head: "Are you an idiot??"
After talking about it late, he laughed loudly and joked with Li Dongliao, covering his forehead: "Li Dongliao, you can't even make jokes now, right? I'm your boss now. This is what you did to your boss." why!"
"Have you taken this medicine??" Li Dongliao hated the fact that iron is not made of steel. "Why are you joking? I have to take one to the hospital for testing to see what kind of medicine it is. Don't take it and die without knowing it." .”
"This is just a backup medicine. The bottle I usually take is always in my bag, and it stays with me all day long." Tan Wan threw the medicine bottle into his bag, "Now the murder case has to be ranked first, and we will talk about it after this case is over. Bar."
The red light flashed several times and turned green. As the car started to move again, no one mentioned the incident again.
After driving for about half an hour, the car stopped steadily not far from where Wang Yi's body was found.
After getting out of the car, I looked downstream along the river. Wherever I looked, I could see the reeds where the second female body was stranded.
The area where the low-rise houses were demolished is sparsely populated. It is said that 90% of the demolished households have moved away. What is left are either nail households or some residents who are not satisfied with the demolition terms. There are only a few living around it.
It was a cloudy day, and the low-rise area by the river was still like a pool of stagnant water, lifeless and lifeless.
As soon as Li Dongliao got out of the car, he recalled the experience of seeing the corpse that night, and felt a chill in his back: "Why is this ghost place so scary during the day?"
After walking a few steps nearby, I discovered that the homeless man I met earlier lived in a hut near the river. No wonder I saw a corpse that day. It turned out that his home was nearby.
As I approached the house, I immediately smelled the sour smell of rotting garbage.
An ordinary person would definitely be put off by the smell. Li Dongliao, who is easily nauseated, was struck by the corpse odor for several days in a row. He even felt that the sour smell of garbage was just like that.
Behind me, an old lady passed by carrying a vegetable basket. When she saw the two of them standing there, she asked, "Who are you looking for?"
