Whether they are near the city bureau, at the crime scene, or even in the hotel lobby, these guys in black clothes and black pants are like ghosts.【】

No one knows what the purpose of these people is. In addition to the police and the victim's family, there seems to be a third force that is paying close attention to the direction of the rainy night murder case.

The moment their eyes met, Ye Fan calmly wrote down the faces of these people. He gradually began to realize why Kong Fangping suddenly contacted him to return to China to investigate the murder case.

The next morning, Kong Fangping held a temporary combat meeting within the city bureau regarding the May 25 rainy night serial murder case. All members of the task force attended. Although Ye Fan was reluctant, he could not withstand Kong Fangping's strong request, so he had to bite the bullet and rush to the city.

Bureau.

In the conference hall, there were several people sitting there.

In addition to Lu Yuan, Murong Xue and forensic doctor An Jialu, some colleagues from the Trace Identification Department and the Footprint Department also appeared in the conference hall. The running and hard work in the past few days has almost worn out the patience of the members of the task force. They have been subjected to physical and psychological torture.

Under double pressure, everyone present had more or less tiredness and hard work on their faces.

Kong Fangping delivered a motivational speech as usual, and when he looked at the people present, his old face covered with ravines squeezed out a rare smile.

"Why do everyone have such serious expressions? They look like they are crying in mourning. Things haven't reached the worst point yet. Just be happy."

As soon as he finished speaking, an older policeman in the audience echoed: "No, Director Kong is still standing up there, and we brothers have no place to cry."

"Fuck you, uncle. If you dare to argue again, your annual leave will be cancelled."

After the joke was over, the atmosphere in the conference room relaxed a lot. Kong Fangping took a deep breath and started the meeting.

"We are all our own people here. I will not hide some things from you. The provincial department ordered us to solve the case within ten days. I have gritted my teeth to bear the external pressure. If we fail to give an explanation after ten days, I will be the first to escape.

Take off your clothes."

After speaking, Kong Fangping looked around at everyone present, and his eyes finally landed on where An Jialu was.

"Jialu, please tell me the autopsy results first."

An Jialu graduated from Waseda University in Japan. She had excellent grades while in school. After returning to China, she directly worked as a forensic scientist in the H City Criminal Investigation Detachment. She was the surgeon who performed autopsies on several previous murder cases.

Autopsy, or autopsy, refers to a medical method of performing an autopsy on a dead body to find out the cause of death. Autopsy plays an irreplaceable role in resolving medical malpractice disputes when the cause of death is unknown or there is disagreement about the cause of death. Criminal

In cases, autopsy is particularly important for the investigation of the case.

An Jialu gently pushed her long golden hair back and stood up slowly, with a rare look of concentration on her delicate face.

"The victim, Guo Xiaohui, female, 39 years old, with no past medical history, was found dead at around 7:20 a.m. on July 3 in the Third Alley of Binhe District in the north of the city.

Through the examination of the stomach residue of the deceased, we concluded that the time of his death was between 11:15 and 11:45 on the night of July 2. The cause of death was mechanical asphyxia, which was different from the previous cases.

The murders were similar, and the murder weapon was a rough hemp rope about 15mm in diameter."

After saying that, An Jialu picked up a slender piece of gray-white rope from the table.

"Similar hemp ropes are sold in almost every hardware store in H City."

"In addition, the body of the deceased showed multiple scattered bruises and contusions of varying degrees. The second and third ribs on the right side even had mild bone fractures. This was due to the violence the deceased had suffered during his lifetime.

Caused by beatings. Compared with the previous three murders, the violent abuse Guo Xiaohui suffered is simply outrageous. The murderer is a typical anti-social personality and has a strong sadistic tendency. If this kind of person is allowed to continue to behave randomly, H City will

There will never be peace..."

"Jialu..."

Murong Xue looked at An Jialu's rising and falling chest and couldn't help but interrupt her: "Is there anything else you discovered?"

Forensic doctors are not all cold-blooded. Although maintaining rationality in dissecting corpses is the basic quality of every forensic doctor. But watching those living lives being brutally killed again and again is unbearable for anyone.

The murderer was basically killing people for fun. Because of the nature of his profession, An Jialu knew very well what kind of torture those victims endured before they died.

After a while, An Jialu calmed down again, and then picked up another report document in front of her.

"Also, we tested a small amount of ink residue in the nails and hair of the deceased."

"Ink?"

"It's not ordinary ink." After saying that, An Jialu pasted several pictures behind her in sequence, and then said seriously: "These are high-purity printing inks used in printing. They have strong viscosity and deep coloring. Once they are stained, they will

It is extremely difficult to clean. The ink residue found in the crevices of the deceased's hair is estimated to be more than half a year old. I speculate that the industry the deceased was engaged in may be related to printing."

Guo Xiaohui is not a native of H City. After coming here, she has never had a stable job or a fixed residence. One day is not enough for the police to find out the identity of the deceased. This clue provided by forensic doctor An Jialu will

Greatly shorten the time required for police investigations.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present showed different expressions on their faces. Ye Fan stared at the test pictures and thought carefully for a long time, and the blurry picture in his mind gradually became clear.

There are three large-scale printing factories in H City, and there are countless small printing workshops in the urban area. If we can locate the place where the deceased worked, we will have the opportunity to find out step by step what Guo Xiaohui did on the day of her murder.

Who passed.

"Okay, as soon as possible, find out the movements of the deceased on the day of the murder. It must be accurate to the hour. Although the Third Hutong is located in a remote place, the road surveillance near the block has been operating normally. There may be surveillance records that recorded the entire process of the murderer dumping the body.

....”

"Kong Bureau, I also found something here!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses and a big belly suddenly spoke on the back left side of the conference room. Ye Fan remembered that this man was the head of the Footprint Identification Department. He went to the Third Alley with Murong Xue and the others last night.

Take footprints.

Murong Xue looked at the black-rimmed glasses behind her, and the joy on her face could not be concealed: "Brother Zheng, have the results of the footprint identification come out?"

"Yes, Captain Murong has given orders, we must work overtime." Black-rimmed glasses nodded to Kong Fangping, and later briefly introduced what happened last night.

"Although the mysterious man who attacked Lu Yuan escaped, the footprints he left behind can reveal a lot of information.

"Because the footprints extracted are relatively complete, the results of the footprint identification will be available soon. By comparing and analyzing the four complete footprints left at the entrance of the third alley, we can roughly infer that the murderer is between 175-178cm tall and weighs

65-68kg, the back side of the right foot is severely worn, the right shoulder is slightly lower than the left shoulder, the feet are turned out, and there is an obvious right side tilt when walking..."

Lu Yuan stood up and tried to imitate this way of walking. He said thoughtfully: "This guy should be right-handed. When he hit me last night, he also used his right hand."

The black-framed glasses took his time, and after finishing speaking, he picked up another report document at hand: "It is worth noting that we also tested lime, carbon, granite, iron oxide, and

Soil residue. Lime and granite are not common elements in urban areas, and the soil residue tested does not match the soil quality of Third Hutong."

"That is to say, before the other party went to the third alley, he also visited an area where these elements existed."
