"Is there really still a problem?"
Shen Xing looked at this photo that was obviously from the murder scene.
Li Naijing sent the photo to herself, maybe because she wanted him to take a look, or maybe she felt suspicious and wanted them to think about it together.
Shen Xing still remembers that when he first discovered that newspapers had blank pages, he thought the newspaper vendor was deliberately deceiving customers with some misprinted newspapers.
But later I heard from the boss at the supermarket downstairs that this situation has been happening in the Yungu Evening News for several months. It may be due to a machine failure that has not been solved, so they are all used to this page being empty.
At that time, Shen Xing didn't think there was any problem with this. After all, other newspapers didn't deal with it. Maybe it was because of poor communication with the printing factory, or maybe because the factory didn't have the money to replace it with new machines.
As long as it doesn't affect reading.
Now it seems that there is a problem here.
While I was thinking, a text message alert rang, and Li Naijing sent a text message.
"This is a murder that just happened. The deceased died at around 10 o'clock this morning. He was alone at home. There were no witnesses at the scene. The room was closed and locked. A preliminary inspection of the scene showed no trace of outsiders entering the room. However, according to Wang's forensic identification, She was strangled and died of mechanical asphyxiation."
"Then how did the murderer get into the house?" Shen Xing replied.
After a while, Li Naijing replied: "No one entered the house. Forensic doctor Wang patted his chest to assure us that his identification conclusion would never be wrong. Traces of being pinched were found on the neck of the deceased, and the hands of the deceased were It was white, the muscles of the fingertips were shriveled, it was obvious that she had used a lot of force, and there was obvious blood stasis at the elbow bend, indicating that both of her arms had experienced long-term bending and compression. Therefore, forensic doctor Wang concluded that this woman I strangled myself to death.”
Shen Xing: "..."
He still remembered that someone once teased him, saying that he was so strong that he could lift his body up off the ground by pulling his hair with his right hand.
But this was the first time Shen Xing heard someone strangle him to death.
Of course, Wang Jingzhong's professionalism as a forensic doctor will not be questioned. What people can't believe is the conclusion he reached this time.
So naturally the Special Case Investigation Team took up the case.
"This case is interesting!" Shen Xing replied.
"Do you have any good suggestions?" Li Naijing replied.
"Let me think about it."
Shen Xing put down her phone and looked at the large shopping mall on the opposite street.
His business has been getting better and better these days. Not only has some of his recent works been sold, but several of his earliest works have also been sold.
There may be some reasons for the change of fortune, but Shen Xing is more willing to believe that the passenger flow in this area is really large. The number of pedestrians coming and going in front of the store every day is more than ten times more than the previous old store.
He was playing with the blood pupil wood carving in his hand. This blood pupil was not a replica, but the original version that had truly absorbed the abnormal characteristics of the blood pupil. He usually held it in his hand, and sometimes it was boring for him to stare at the blood pupil and keep it. Stabilization of mental antibodies.
The sixth layer of spiritual antibodies that had just been formed was now basically formed, and to Shen Xing's surprise, when it was completely full, the progress bar turned out to be silver!
It also looked very textured and shiny. Not only that, after this layer of silver mental antibodies was formed, Shen Xing felt that the other five layers of antibodies underneath began to become stronger than before.
Although there is currently no loss of mental antibodies, just looking at this, Shen Xing is sure that with the emergence of this layer of silver antibodies, the antibodies at other levels have obviously become stronger.
In front of my eyes, at this moment, a little chubby guy ran out from the entrance of the shopping mall and came to the other side of the street to wait for the traffic light. When the traffic light turned green for pedestrians, he quickly ran over here and then got into the wood carving shop. .
"Hello, uncle!"
Little Fatty nodded slightly to Shen Xing, and quickly moved his eyes to the wooden shelf where the DC series wood carvings were placed. He found that all the painted wood carvings were there, and he was slightly relieved.
"Are you alone?" Shen Xing asked.
Little Fatty nodded, "I don't know where Wu Jiacheng went. Their stores haven't been open these days, so I came here by myself."
"Oh." Shen Xing said nothing.
Little Fatty ran to the dc series wood carvings, looked left and right, and picked up the various cards that Shen Xing had placed in front of the wooden shelf for guests to read and watch. While stroking the smooth card patterns, he couldn't put it down and connected the cards with the wood carvings in his hands. Comparing one by one.
These cards are professionally produced by an advertising company. They are definitely not the same as the original cards made by Shen Xing himself in terms of exquisiteness, so they are even more attractive to children.
Shen Xing didn't say anything, just waiting for him to play alone.
About ten minutes later, Xiao Pangdun came over with a card in his hand and said to Shen Xing: "Uncle, Wu Jiacheng may not be here. Can I buy these wood carvings?"
"Are you rich?" Shen Xing smiled, "The last time you bought the Marvel series wood carvings, your mother came with you. Now the price is too high for you, and you need an adult to accompany you to buy them. Otherwise, my uncle wouldn’t dare sell it to you.”
"Yeah." Little Fatty nodded vigorously, "My mother asked me to come over first, and she came over quickly. She promised to buy it for me."
"Okay." Shen Xing shrugged.
Not long after, a woman came across the traffic light from the opposite side, and Xiaopangdun immediately greeted her.
"Mom, why are you here?" The little guy looked excited.
Shen Xing had met this woman before, and she was indeed Little Fatty's mother. She was the one who came to buy the wood carving last time.
After meeting Shen Xing, Fatty's mother, a woman seven or eight times the size of Little Fatty, shook her head at Shen Xing and smiled bitterly, and said: "This brat, you have been pestering me all day long to buy this set of wood carvings from you, and I'm obsessed with it." He’s been pestering me for several days!”
Shen Xing smiled back, "All children are like this."
But I’m thinking in my heart, if he doesn’t pester you to buy my things, whose money will I make?
The fat woman took out a bank card and handed it to Shen Xing, "Is the price about the same as last time?"
"It's a few hundred dollars cheaper than the last one, only 4,200." Shen Xing said.
She spent 4,200 yuan on a credit card vending machine, which is not called an os machine in this world. The fat woman entered the password. After a while, it showed that the card was successfully swiped. Shen Xing immediately packaged the DC for Xiao Pang Dun.
While pretending to be a wood carving, he asked casually: "The children who came with you last time, if they knew that you came to buy them first, I'm afraid they would regret it."
Before the little fat man spoke, the fat woman had already shaken her head and said: "There is a high probability that Xiao Jiacheng will not come."
Shen Xing turned to look at her and asked, "Why?"
"I heard that last week night, his grandfather suddenly went crazy at home. He used a kitchen knife to break into the bedroom and kill the three members of his family. Later, Xiao Jiacheng's parents fought back and killed him. The old man died in the bedroom. They are receiving treatment from the Sheriff's Department. After the investigation, it seems that the family has not yet recovered."
The news the fat woman received was relatively complete, in fact it was almost the same.
Shen Xing was a little surprised. In his memory, the little boy looked a little introverted and shy. He didn't expect that such a horrible thing would happen to his family. I'm afraid the little boy was so frightened that night that he might have left a psychological shadow.
"I know that Wu Jiacheng's grandfather likes to read newspapers. Wu Jiacheng told me that his grandfather reads newspapers all day long and ignores everyone!" Xiao Pangdun immediately took over.
"Read the newspaper?" Shen Xing frowned and said nothing.
After packing the entire dc series, the packing box was wrapped in a large plastic bag. The fat woman held it in her hand, holding Little Fatty in her other hand, and crossed the road back to the shopping mall opposite.
Shen Xingzhong sat down again and watched these two very conspicuous figures slowly disappear across the street. His thoughts returned to the photo Li Naijing sent him just now.
Li Naijing just asked him if he had any suggestions. When he thought about it, Shen Xing took out the special phone and called Li Naijing.
After the call was connected, the environment there seemed to be very quiet. Li Naijing didn't wait for him to speak and already said, "Shen Xing, I'm in the forensic room now. Do you want to come over?"
The Sheriff's Department Forensic Office is actually only a twenty-minute walk from the woodcarving shop.
"I'm not coming." Shen Xing shook his head, "I would like to make a suggestion. There is a blood-stained newspaper next to the deceased in the photo. I suggest you check this newspaper, especially the blank page, to see if there is anything abnormal."
Li Naijing was stunned for a moment. To be honest, if the conclusion insisted by forensic doctor Wang is correct, that is, the woman really strangled herself to death, then this case can be classified as a special case.
However, currently there is only forensic doctor Wang's argument, and there is no other evidence to form a chain of evidence. It is difficult to judge whether this is a well-conceived and sophisticated murder case.
After all, the murderer could also wear gloves, grab the unconscious woman, let her pinch his neck with her own hands, and then press down hard on the outside to strangle the woman to death.
This will also create the illusion that the woman was strangled to death by her own hands.
Li Naijing and others often investigate the scenes of various murder cases. In some cases, seemingly bizarre cases actually turned out to be not special cases at all.
And some seemingly ordinary cases are sometimes easily overlooked and turn out to be special cases in the end.
There is no perfect boundary at all, so without clear evidence or until the last moment, none of them will easily draw conclusions.
After listening to Shen Xing's suggestions, Li Naijing relied on her years of experience in handling cases and intuitively believed that his suggestions were reliable, because often overlooked daily routines are sometimes the most important clues.
"Okay, I'll ask Wenbo to lead someone to check it out immediately." Li Naijing said.
In fact, when special investigators are investigating cases, sometimes it is impossible to have enough manpower, so they will also bring ordinary police officers with them.
This custom is still followed in Yungu City, and it is said that among special investigation teams at the level of Kuazhou, a special investigation team action team has been established. This is a mobile team specially designed to serve the special investigation team in investigating and handling cases.
Although the members of the action team are all ordinary police officers, after targeted training, they have more professional coordination skills and action capabilities, and can be regarded as the right-hand man of the special coordinator.
It is said that Heshan City will soon be equipped with such a team. I wonder if it will be able to be deployed in small cities like Yungu City.
At this time, Shen Xing remembered something and said: "By the way, please help me check if there are any recent criminal cases about an old man who went crazy at home and wanted to kill his family, but was killed by the family's counterattack. "
"Are you referring to the Wu family's case?" Li Naijing asked.
Shen Xing was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, there is a little boy in their family, he seems to be named Wu Jiacheng. This kid wanted to buy anime wood carvings in my store last time."
"Really?" Li Naijing said, "It just so happens that the body of the child's grandfather is also in the forensic room. Do you want to take a look?"
Shen Xing said angrily: "I'm not coming anymore. Don't keep dragging me to the forensic room. It's not a good place."
"Hey! I said..." The voice of forensic doctor Wang Jingzhong suddenly came over the phone, "Shen Xing, I heard you! You kid actually said that my office is not a good place. The corpses here were at least living people, and yours The things in the woodcarving shop are always cold, so why is the place so good?"
Shen Xing: ̄︶ ̄
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Naijing's voice came as low as possible on the other end of the phone, "I just turned on the speakerphone just now so that Forensic Doctor Wang could listen to your suggestions and let him make a judgement."
Shen Xing:╰╯
"Okay, okay, even though you don't speak, you still can't hide the fact that you are deeply embarrassed. Well, I'll treat you to dinner later!"
Li Naijing ended the conversation with an apology that was never fulfilled.
Shen Xing took out a small notebook and wrote down this sentence.
That day, I picked up Feifei from school and returned to the store. At almost six o'clock, Shen Xing closed the store early.
He wanted to go back home and rush to work on the DC series of wood carvings. Now that the DC set was sold, there was one less set promised to Su Tong, so he had to go back to work on it so that he could send it out to others as soon as possible.
After all, this girl spends her money without blinking an eye. She has hundreds of millions of dollars in wealth. She is a big customer and must keep it well.
Three days later.
According to the address given by Su Tong, Shen Xing packed the assembled Marvel and DC series wood carvings in one go and finally sent them out.
On the same day, Zhao Wenbo called.
This time the special team did not ask him to make any suggestions, but directly asked him to go to Dacheng Printing Factory.
Dacheng Printing Factory is located in the northeastern suburbs of Yungu City. It is the newspaper printing manufacturer designated by Yungu Evening News. Yungu Evening News delivers content from here, then completes printing and then transports it out for distribution to every corner of the city.
Since fewer people read newspapers now, the daily printing volume is not very large. The Dacheng Printing Factory has cooperated with Yungu Evening News for more than ten years and is considered a good business partner.
According to Zhao Wenbo's description, the problem of blank pages in newspapers occurred on the printing assembly line of Dacheng Printing Factory.
Dacheng Printing Factory uses a laser plate-making machine. The electronic version is sent to the plate-making machine through a computer to produce samples, and then delivered to the printing press for batch printing.
As early as a few months ago, the printing house discovered that there was a problem with the laser plate making machine. The electronic layout of the plate was clearly arranged from the computer and sent to the plate making machine before the sample was produced, but one side of the sample would be blank.
Not only that, this blank space has always been fixed, always on the sixth page.
At that time, experts from other places were invited to check, but no cause could be found. It was shown that the machine was all normal and there was nothing wrong with it.
After printing a few times, the editor-in-chief of Yungu Evening News became furious and said that they did not pay attention to it. The printing factory then prepared to replace it with a new plate-making machine. Although the machine was very expensive, the printing factory reluctantly bought it for the sake of happy cooperation between the two parties. Got a new one.
Unexpectedly, the strange thing is that the samples produced by the new equipment are still blank in the sixth version.
Immediately everyone began to wonder if there was a problem with the network signal transmission here, but the final cause of the problem has never been found.
In addition, the number of newspapers printed was decreasing day by day, and too much manpower and material resources were spent on searching for problems. In addition, there was only one empty page, and the internal consumption was not large. Later, I simply left it empty until there was a problem. We'll see how to solve it later.
It's just that Yungu Evening News has always been worried about this matter, lowering the payment amount and often delaying the printing house's settlement time.
"Shen Xing, I'm at the printing factory now. This seems a bit strange. Why don't you come over and take a look?" Zhao Wenbo said.
