Two corpses, one on each side, were laid out across the autopsy table. The male corpse apparently died of stab wounds, with blood spattered everywhere and a horrified expression; while the female corpse had no such obvious wounds on its surface, but looked equally miserable.
"According to the current news, although Zhao Xiaoxia has never been married and does not live under the same roof with her elderly parents, she is usually followed by assistants and bodyguards, and her property has someone to take care of it even if she is away for a long time. But just now In the morning of that day, Zhao Xiaoxia went out alone without saying hello to anyone, but no one noticed anything unusual, because she was as concise and concise as ever whether she answered the phone or declined the itinerary - until that afternoon, her assistant called to ask about the incident. When the meeting in the evening was held normally, I found out that she had lost contact with everyone."
Then, her body was found in a place no one expected.
As Lu Yao conveyed the message, he couldn't help but sigh: "Is this the big boss? Meetings and schedules are pushed back and forth, and no one dares to say no."
"...I suggest you discuss finding a more spacious place." Mo Yunwan gestured at the corpse and made suggestions without looking back, "The autopsy room is buzzing and lively, and it's a bit disrespectful. .”
"What we want is the time of death." Liang An interrupted, "Give me this judgment, and I will take the people to do other things immediately - except Jiang Qiu."
Mo Yunwan glanced back in surprise: "How long has it been since you wanted this result...Which time of death do you want first?"
She also just arrived to dispose of the body and did not have time to learn the details of the case like the people in the third team.
Of course, forensic doctors usually only need to provide results and act as required, and this is generally not necessary. But for Mo Yunwan, who has been paying special attention to the cases taken by the third team recently, this has become a habit sooner or later. Even if he does not get the permission of a certain captain, he has to take the advice of some team members who are not tight-lipped. Take something out of it.
"According to the temperature of the corpse, Zhao Hongxia died earlier than...the other one." Jiang Qiu could keep up with the current thinking, so he answered. He just fumbled around briefly and quickly started his normal work.
The one whose death looked the most tragic died behind him, in a closed bathroom. For some reason, Zhao Hongxia, who came to this special location, was the first to reveal his body.
And she doesn't seem to have much to do with the declaration of "absconding in fear of crime" written by Liming, which is also the most puzzling point. The clothes in the suitcase at the door were confirmed to be men's clothes, including the watch placed on top of the clothes, which was also confirmed to be the private property of the gang boss and was often kept in his hands. He was an extremely particular man, as both an undercover informant and a gangster on trial can attest to.
As for Zhao Hongxia, although it is indeed suspicious that she left alone, her constant contact with people shows that the big boss did leave early in the morning just to travel alone, and only lost control and contact at a specific time. ability.
But why did Liming's declaration appear at the scene of Zhao Hongxia's death?
Liang An was thoughtful.
"Just say it clearly. Go and go." Mo Yunwan originally didn't like to work surrounded by other people's eyes, and had long wanted to concentrate on the operation. He impatiently drove away the people who came around, leaving only one person who originally wanted to operate. Jiang Qiu wanted to help, and Lu Yao stood aside obediently and had his computer taken away.
As soon as Mo Yunwan saw the expression on Lu Yao's head, ready to escape at any moment, he knew that someone named Liang must have placed an unknown "ghost" in order to prevent him from speaking openly and honestly. He sighed and said There is no time to delve into it.
"Ling Ming's criminal plans have always had distinct personal characteristics. One of them is that he will carefully place the things he wants to arrange at the scene where they should be." Liu Che called out some examples of cases , with a somewhat helpless expression, "For example, the so-called 'declaration' that he puts down almost every time. What's special is not only that he completely ignores the exposed handwriting, but also that each note is placed in the most conspicuous place. …”
He said half-way, hesitated, took out his mobile phone,
"Such as this."
The photo taken on the mobile phone is a picture of a piece of white paper. The handwriting is clearly legible. It was probably written with a pen with abundant ink. The ink is quite thick and colorful, and the strokes of the handwriting appear to be rhythmic.
The style and handwriting of the content are also distinctively personal.
"Is this Liming's declaration?" Song Qiaoyu said in surprise. He has never been good at understanding the personal information of his colleagues, so he knew very little about Liu Che's actual origins - not even "hot topics" like Liming. exception.
The method of retrieving this information is unusual, because it is not from any public database, but is obviously Liu Che's own private mobile phone photo album.
"Yes." Liu Che thought of the past and felt a little ashamed. "At that time, this piece of paper was hidden in the pocket of my coat."
Liang An was not surprised by this, and had obviously known about it for a long time. He just asked Liu Che to repeat what he had explained countless times.
"You mean, he used a thief's technique to put things on you? But you didn't notice anything."
This time Liu Che shook his head.
"He did not do it while I was wearing that piece of clothing, I can vouch for that level of vigilance. But what is certain is that his target for placing the declaration was me and not anyone else. This The matter is related to some inferences that follow.”
Although Liu Che was not overly interested in this unconventional serial killer, and even Lu Yao, who was purely curious, was more enthusiastic about it than him, it was inevitable that he was more interested in this killer because he had cooperated with the investigation for a long time. Understand—especially those things that you didn’t realize you felt at the time.
"The conclusion drawn from the summary of the case at that time was this: Liming observed everyone's behavior and habits and discovered what all the target persons must do when they go to a specific place. That place was an apparently normal entertainment club, and at night they were doing Some not-so-honest financial transactions... I have always found excuses to avoid such occasions." Liu Che raised his head and looked around to hide his embarrassment, and continued to talk.
"It was exactly the same situation that time. I walked to the door alone to wait, and then I heard a special noise inside the door. When I walked in and asked, I found that the fire system in the club seemed to have been fully turned on, the switch was also pulled down, and there was chaos inside. .”
"Did Liming do it?" Even Song Qiaoyu found it difficult not to notice that this strangeness seemed to be a precursor to the killer's murder.
Liu Che could only smile bitterly: "At that time, I naturally didn't know if it was 'Dawn' or some other anomaly. All I had to do was maintain my identity. I could only follow my identity as a bodyguard at the time. There are some behaviors where you just break in and find the 'big brother' who is your target."
