Xu Lin rushed to Yuebin City in the afternoon when he received the call.
There is only one Yang Zhiyun with him. This kid is good at psychology and has a good understanding of criminal psychology. After special training, he is almost able to handle it on his own.
However, Nie Wanliang asked for help in person, so he still had to come over.
Xu Lin and Yang Zhiyun were both dressed in casual clothes. After getting off the high-speed train, they got into a car sent by Nie Wanliang and went straight to the municipal bureau of Yuebin City.
After they arrived, Nie Wanliang went out to greet them personally, which made some newcomers and some policemen who didn't know the situation think that some big shot was coming, and they all inquired curiously.
"Nie Bureau, long time no see." Xu Lin saw Nie Wanliang and reached out.
Nie Wanliang also extended his hand, shook his hand, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu, I heard that your level is higher than mine now. No, I have to salute you first."
Xu Lin smiled bitterly when he heard this and said: "Nie Bureau, please stop teasing me. No matter how high my level is, you are also my seniors, right?"
"Haha!" Nie Wanliang laughed happily.
He was afraid that the current Xu Lin would put on airs because of his high rank. It seemed that this guy was still as easy-going as before.
Xu Lin also smiled, and then nodded to Zhang Zisheng who was standing next to Nie Wanliang.
He has almost become a legend in the previous major cases in Yuebin City. He killed so many killers and mercenaries by himself and ensured the smooth convening of the conference. He is definitely a presence that is admired by these criminal investigators and veteran police officers.
Zhang Zisheng stretched out his hands and said: "Team Leader Xu, long time no see. We really have no choice this time, so please help us."
Xu Lin shook hands with him and said with a smile: "The ones I didn't say are all my brothers. Besides, I poached Lao Su away, and Director Nie didn't say anything at the time."
"Let's go in and talk!" Nie Wanliang said.
Soon, everyone came to the conference room.
After everyone sat down, Zhang Zisheng said: "Team Leader Xu, the case we encountered was a case of a corpse pretending to be a wax figure."
As he spoke, he turned on the projection equipment at the back, and then everyone saw a photo. The photo showed a lifelike wax figure of a girl, which looked no different from a real person.
Xu Lin also raised his eyebrows slightly. He knew that many technologies are now very perfect, and it is not impossible to make a wax figure that is one-to-one, and it is very lifelike.
For example, there are many celebrities who have their own exclusive wax figures, which are almost identical.
Zhang Zisheng gently controlled the mouse and pulled the picture. Next was another photo of a wax figure, also a girl.
Then came the third photo, the fourth photo... a total of six photos. After all were played, he said: "Team Leader Xu, these six photos are all wax figures made of corpses."
This short sentence has confirmed Xu Lin's guess.
He had already seen something wrong with these wax figures from some details.
The production of wax figures requires three procedures: carving the model, pouring the mold, and demoulding.
Clay can be used as the material for carving the model, and the carving technique is not simple.
The clay sculpture model is a solid three-dimensional model, and the hollow inward model must be poured out with plaster to make a wax figure.
Every body part needs a three-dimensional model.
For example, if a mold is made for the head, another mold is made for the body, and another mold is made for the hands and feet. These molds are connected together to form a mold for a certain part.
But what Xu Lin noticed was that the wax figures had no trace of the connection between the models, which meant... they were human beings themselves.
Because these photos were taken after the wax figures took off their clothes, they are very clear and can be seen almost at a glance.
Zhang Zisheng said: "After our examination, the six deceased were all between 18 and 20 years old, and the probability of them being students is very high. However... we have investigated the missing college students in the past 10 years, but we have not been able to identify them. "
"Even...we investigated the missing women throughout Daxia, and finally conducted a face comparison and found that they do not belong to any missing women, and they are not in our database."
When Xu Lin heard what he said, he raised his head slightly and said, "You can't find it like this. Haven't you noticed that the faces of these wax figures have been beautified?"
As soon as Xu Lin's words came out, everyone was stunned.
Then everyone looked at the shrunken wax figure, and their expressions gradually showed a hint of shock.
yes!
The faces in these six photos are almost all flawless.
It is said that everyone has different aesthetics, but at this moment, everyone has only two words in mind for these six wax faces: beautiful.
They are really beautiful, each one's facial features are perfect, and there are almost no flaws.
Xu Lin continued: "Their eyebrows and facial features are very similar. If it were not for some changes, I believe no one would be able to find these six people."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked again.
Indeed, the faces of the six people are very similar.
At first glance, I didn't notice it, but after his reminder, I felt more and more that their face shapes, brow bones, cheekbones, chins, etc. were all very similar.
What others notice is only the appearance of these wax figures, which is the most superficial intuitive feeling.
What Xu Lin saw were features such as the bones of the wax figure, so he could naturally spot the difference at a glance.
Zhang Zisheng took a breath of cold air.
He looked at Xu Lin, feeling a sense of extreme admiration in his heart.
No wonder he was able to become the head of the Great Xia Special Case Team at such a young age. His observation skills are simply amazing.
What everyone ignored was so clear in front of him, and he said it in one word.
Xu Lin: "Have you ever thought about dismembering the wax figure and taking a look?"
After hearing this, everyone nodded and said: "We have actually opened a wax figure, but all the tissues inside have been basically destroyed, and no useful clues have been found. Even the epidermis has been processed, and the murderer Nothing was left for us at all.”
Xu Lin: "It's impossible. There is no perfect crime in this world. There must be clues."
"In this case, you take me to see these wax figures."
Hearing Xu Lin's words, Nie Wanliang immediately said: "Zhang Zisheng, why are you still standing there? Take Xiao Xu to see those wax figures immediately, hurry up."
Then he said to Xu Lin: "Comrade Xiao Xu, I leave this case to you. You don't know that these wax figures were discovered when they were on display, and the whole Yuebin City was shocked. The higher-ups have begun to pay attention. I am under huge pressure."
Xu Lin nodded and said, "Don't worry! We can handle it!"
