Lu Xinran never thought that the melon-eating system, which could peek into people's privacy, would one day become a weapon for victims to find the murderer.
Those lines of cold and cruel words made her heart tremble uncontrollably.
She clicked on the second victim's message almost without thinking.
[Qin Gaoyi’s home is also in the south of the city, on the same street as Wang Huiru’s bookshop. She and Wang Huiru grew up together and have known each other since childhood. 】
[August 27, Wang Huiru went to deliver books outside the city and did not come back until late at night. The queen mother was worried and even went to Qin's house to inquire. 】
[Early the next morning, the Queen Mother went to Shuntian Mansion to report a crime, and she accompanied her there. 】
[The Qin family shop received a business in the afternoon. The other party urgently needed ten yuan for ink ingots. The carriage was waiting outside the city for them to be ready to deliver it. 】
[The ten wrapped ink ingots are not light. Father Qin originally wanted to deliver them in person, but before leaving, a customer came to the shop. He wanted to see the best Wensong ink in the shop, so he had no choice but to send the ink ingots. It fell on Qin Gaoyi. 】
[Why is it just right? Wang Huiru was the younger brother who happened to have diarrhea, and Qin Gaoyi was the guest at the shop. 】
[Isn’t it possible that Zhang Yuewen’s murder was also related to coincidence? 】
Doubts arose in her heart, and she immediately went to look at Zhang Yuewen's pamphlet, "Hey, she just goes out of the city normally, is this all just a coincidence?" 】
At a glance, she saw nothing unusual in Zhang Yuewen's message, so she turned back to read Qin Gaoyi's content.
Repeated coincidences are no longer coincidences.
Song Junyan and Tang Quyan had already ordered people to go to the Wang family and the Qin family, asking them to draw the faces of the person who sent the mung bean soup and the person who bought ink ingots twice.
In the morgue, Lu Xinlan was comparing the autopsy results suspiciously in her mind.
She found no traces of violation on Wang Huiru's body. Although Tianre's body had begun to decay, the girl's lower body was intact and the bruises on her legs were caused by dragging and bumping.
"Xu Wuzuo, how did you determine that the deceased was violated after death?"
Xu Bai pointed to the deceased's clothes placed aside: "The deceased's lower body clothes were seriously damaged when he was found, and he was not wearing underwear, so..."
"The place where the deceased was found may not be the place where the murderer dumped the body. It may have taken several hours to a day from when the body was thrown out to when it was discovered and reported to the police. What happened in the meantime, we don't know. The results cannot be given arbitrarily.
“This is the basis for arresting criminals, so our report must be as fair and objective as possible and cannot rely on subjective assumptions.
"You wrote on the three results that the deceased was assaulted after his death. This will mislead the police and adults and conclude that the murderer was a womanizer with a psychological defect."
Cold sweat broke out on Xu Bai's forehead. After many years of working as a widower, this was the first time he was reprimanded by a layman except his master.
However, the other party's accusations left him unable to find words to defend himself.
Her words were neither soft nor serious, and the few people who were less than ten steps away from them all listened.
[Wow, my sister is so powerful and domineering, and she should be rigorous in solving crimes. There should be no mistakes or omissions. Why would the co-worker of Dali Temple still make such low-level mistakes? 】
[Relying on subjective conjecture to conduct an autopsy, can the police just grab a person from the street and charge him with a few charges and solve the case? 】
The rants made Song Junyan and Tang Quyan feel hot in their ears.
I was despised by two little girls!
[I’d better pick up the book. Qin Gaoyi handed the ink ingot to the buyer, collected the money, and was about to return to the shop, but when he walked near the city gate, he met an acquaintance. 】
[The aunt had a sprained foot, and she was carrying rice and noodles she had just bought from the city. It weighed more than ten kilograms, and she couldn't carry it. She asked her to help him take him back to the village. She didn't think much and helped him back to the village. 】
[On the way back to the city... just like Wang Huiru, not far from the village, he was knocked unconscious with a stone. 】
[When she woke up again, she was in a dark room. She could smell the smell of blood. It should be the room where Wang Huiru was killed the day before. 】
[She realized almost instantly what she had encountered and wanted to scream for help, but her hands and feet were tied up, her eyes were covered with something, and a stone was stuffed in her mouth. 】
[The murderer found that she was awake, slapped her in the face, and cursed her as a bitch! 】
[The murderer didn't give her a chance to struggle, and stabbed her ribs with one knife. The severe pain made her not remember how many times she had been stabbed. She only remembered that she had been stabbed in the stomach and also in the face. 】
[The murderer did not miss when he stabbed her heart for the second time. Only then did she lose her breath completely. 】
The whole process of the crime made Lu Xinran's hands and feet feel cold. The autopsy results said that the murderer became more proficient in his techniques as he went to the back, but the results from the system were different.
The murderer was very brutal in both killings, and seemed to be... venting his anger.
She had a feeling that the murderer should know these two people and had a personal feud or had a quarrel.
Lu Xinlan inspected Qin Gaoyi's body again in the morgue in the order of his thoughts.
In Qin Gaoyi's case, she still found no trace of being violated after death.
Xu Bai's face gradually turned pale, and when he met Lu Xinlan's gaze, he felt slightly in a trance, as nervous as if he had gone back to the year when he was an apprentice and was often scolded by his master.
After reading the written records of Wang Huiru and Qin Gaoyi before they were killed, Lu Xinran found depressingly that the system seemed to be of little help.
Why couldn't they see each other's faces?
Lu Xinran sighed and was already ready to click on the last person's booklet.
I hope I can get useful information. It would be best if I could know who the murderer is.
Tang Quyan and Song Junyan also became nervous. They only hoped to get key information to solve the case as soon as possible to avoid more tragedies in which innocent women were killed.
Three people died in succession, this is already a major case.
If the corpses hadn't been found outside the city where people didn't often pass by, the city would have started to panic by now.
Lu Xinran secretly prayed for a long time before Ou Huang was possessed, and then clicked on the booklet belonging to Zhang Yuewen.
[Hey, she is also friends with Wang Huiru and Qin Gaoyi. The three of them are similar in age and their shop is on the same street. The three of them have always gotten along harmoniously. 】
[Zhang Yuewen is the eldest of the three of them. She has already had haircut at the beginning of the year, and her family is preparing to find a family for her. 】
[She likes her aunt's cousin, but her aunt only wants to wait until her cousin reaches high school to marry a girl from a high-ranking official family, so she didn't give any response to the marriage. 】
[She was disappointed, so she told Wang Huiru and Qin Gaoyi that she liked her cousin. Both of them advised her to let go of her feelings, but she felt that neither of her friends understood her. 】
[I also complained about them in the courtyard, but a servant at home saw it! 】
