As soon as Tian Cunda saw this stage, he immediately noticed something——
The faces of these chrysanthemum dolls are very similar to those of the Hongli family.
"That, that's..."
Tian Chunda's tongue seemed to be tied up and he couldn't say a word.
He couldn't help but take a few steps forward. However, at this moment, the head of the doll in front of him suddenly shook a few times, and soon it was completely separated from the body...
"ah!"
Tian Chunda shouted and took a big step back.
It turned out that it was Zhu Wenwu’s head! A large amount of dark red blood continued to gush out from the place where Zhu Wenwu's head was beheaded, giving people the feeling of dying in peace.
"This, this is..."
Tian Chunda finally came back to his senses and uttered these words.
"Zhu Wenwu was killed..."
Lawyer Gu Gong and the police officers just nodded silently.
"But, but, why did the murderer go to so much trouble to arrange the scene like this?"
Everyone present stared at each other, and no one could answer Tian Chunda's question.
"Usually the murderer will deliberately hide the leader of the deceased in order to hide the true identity of the deceased, but, but, why did this head appear here first?"
"Mr. Tian Chunta, here's the problem. We don't know who the murderer is or what his plans are. We only know that he abandoned the body, cut off the head of the deceased, and brought it here to serve as the head of a chrysanthemum doll. .”
"What was the murderer's motive for doing this?"
"Well... we don't know either."
Yang Ping, director of the Hongye Valley Police Station, sighed.
He has short gray hair, is short, slightly fat, and has a slightly protruding belly.
Tian Chunda glanced at the chrysanthemum doll again, and saw it standing like a monster behind the dark stage, while Zhu Wenwu's head rolled down at its feet. As for the figures next to the head that imitated Hong Li, Zhu Shi, and Zuo Qing The faces of Xin Youzhi's dolls are all so cold.
Tian Chunda wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned around and asked, "Where is Zhu Wenwu's body? How is the part below his head?"
"We are also searching, but I think it is not far from here! And this 'Chrysanthemum Garden' has not been destroyed, so the first scene of the crime should be somewhere else. If the first scene can be found... …”
When Director Yang said this, two or three plainclothes detectives suddenly ran towards here. One of the detectives ran to the director and whispered. Director Yang immediately frowned and looked back at Tian Chunda.
"We have found the first scene, you should come too!"
Tian Chunda nodded and walked side by side with lawyer Gu Gong behind Director Yang who took the lead.
"By the way! Mr. Gu Gong, who discovered Zhu Wenwu's head first?" Tian Chunda asked curiously.
"It's Yuan Zhuang."
"Yuan Zhuang?"
Tian Chunda was a little surprised, and his voice couldn't help but rise a lot.
"Well, yes, Yuan Zhuang comes here every morning to prune chrysanthemums. This morning when he came to the nursery to see the flowers as usual, he found the head, so he immediately came to tell me about it... Yes, it was nine o'clock. Many. I was shocked after hearing this and ran here to find out what was going on. Later, Hong Li’s family all came to the nursery. Mrs. Hong Xiangzhu was crying and screaming, and she almost collapsed. Alas! Such a misfortune happened. It’s no wonder she is like this..."
"Where are Mrs. Hong Xiangsong and Zuo Qing?"
"They also came, but when they saw Zhu Wenwu's head, they didn't say a word. Zuo Qing still looked the same, wearing a mask, and Mrs. Hong Xiangsong still looked indifferent. The two of them quickly returned to the room So I have no idea what these two people thought when they saw Zhu Wenwu’s head.”
Tian Chunda nodded silently, and after a while, he asked as if he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, is the scroll with Zuo Qing's handprint at Zhu Wenwu's place?"
"No, that scroll is now under my care, and it is kept in this briefcase."
Lawyer Gu Gong gently patted the briefcase under his arm. Suddenly, he shouted in realization: "Mr. Tian Chunda, was Zhu Wenwu killed because of that scroll?"
Tian Chunda did not answer the question, but asked solemnly: "Does everyone in the Hongli family know that you are keeping this scroll?"
"Yes, everyone knows it except Mrs. Hong Xiangsong and Zuo Qing. Because after they left, everyone agreed that I would take care of it.'
"So Mrs. Hong Xiangsong and Zuo Qing don't know about this?"
"Yeah, unless someone tells it."
"Someone said it? Probably not! Aren't they not getting along with other people?"
"I think so too. But, could it be that those two people..."
At this time, the group of people had arrived at the dock facing the lake. This dock is where Yuan Zhuang and Tian Chunda came on the day the will was made public.
The entire dock is built entirely of reinforced concrete and is rectangular in shape, with an observation deck on the top floor.
They climbed up the narrow stairs to the observation deck; the moment they stepped onto the observation deck, Tian Chunda couldn't help but open his eyes.
I saw a round rattan coffee table on the observation deck. There were five or six rattan chairs around the coffee table. One of the rattan chairs fell over and there was a lot of blood on it.
It seems that the first scene should be here, but where is the body? There are no corpses on the lookout!
Tian Chunda became more and more puzzled.
"Captain Tian, the murder happened here. The murderer killed Zhu Wenwu, cut off his head, and then threw the body down from here. Well, look..."
Detective Hao Dong pointed at a pool of blood and recounted.
The blood stains extended from the wicker chair to the observation deck, and below was the surface of Hongye Lake. Due to the rain, ripples continued to form on the lake.
"That's it! Then we have to fish it out in the lake."
Director Yang looked at the lake and couldn't help but shudder.
"Is the lake in this area very deep?"
"No, not very deep. Look!"
Director Yang pointed to the lake and said: "The problem is that the lake water in this area usually flows in a whirlpool, so by this time I am afraid that the body has already drifted to no one's where."
At this time, a plainclothes detective came to Director Yang.
"Director, we found this thing..."
It was a chrysanthemum-shaped brooch about an inch in diameter. The gold chrysanthemum was set with a large ruby.
"This brooch fell next to the fallen wicker chair. We..." Before the detective could finish speaking, lawyer Gu Gong let out a loud shout.
Director Yang and Tian Chunda were both startled. When they looked back, they saw lawyer Gu Gong looking at the brooch with wide eyes.
"Mr. Gu Gong, do you recognize this brooch?"
Director Yang asked doubtfully.
Lawyer Gu Gong then took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
