Zhao Qi took over his family's business after graduating from university. He didn't expect that his business would not be as good as before when he reached middle age. However, at a class reunion, he heard that his former high school friend started his own business and was now doing well in the same industry as him.

rise.

Therefore, a few days after the party, he made an appointment with this friend to go to a farmhouse on the outskirts of the city to spend the summer. He wanted to have a chat with him, reminisce about old times and complain at the same time.

On the night of the 13th, after drinking some wine, the two of them walked along the Jinshui River next to the farmhouse and had a heart-to-heart talk. After walking for a while, they found a place to sit down and talk in detail.

Hu Bingyue promised to keep in touch frequently in the future and do business together, so the two of them thought of going back.

The time had slipped past 1:30 in the morning, and it was too far to walk back along the river. The two sobered up, and since it was already late, they decided to go back through the not-so-dense woods.

The distance between the trees was large and the road was flat. The two of them walked very quickly until they found someone who seemed to be lying among the trees. After all, they were two big men. After calling twice and getting no answer, they boldly approached and soon

As soon as I smelled something uncomfortable, I could tell it was a woman.

After that, the two sobered up completely and called the police. When the police arrived, they cooperated and took a statement.

When Ying Mingyu and others arrived, the person who reported the crime had already been released, and his contact information and address were left with him, so he could listen to the news at any time.

They had no problem finding the source of the body. The deceased's backpack was placed next to her. After opening it, it contained all the items, including a mobile phone wallet and a tablet that she carried with her. None of them were missing.

The police at the scene have identified the deceased female Liu Sisi, 20 years old, from this city, studying in college, and she is currently in summer vacation.

Judging from the death of the female deceased, the murderer's great intention was to sexually assault, but he only used props but did not commit actual assault. There are several possibilities. The murderer had a physical illness and was unable to commit the crime; the murderer accidentally injured the deceased.

His lower body caused him to lose his sexual interest; the murderer temporarily changed his mind due to some unknown reason.

Wang Tao and the others took many photos with searchlights. Ding Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "Nowadays, the dead are often no more than 20 years old, and the murderers also tend to get younger. I really don't know what's going on?"

"What you said is indeed worth noting. It is a good thing for our investigation." Ying Mingyu continued. The deceased was young and his social experience would be relatively simple, especially for students who have not yet entered the society.

Of course, there was an exception in the March 16th case at Lu Qianqian's school. The deceased Zhang Jun exceeded their expectations. It can only be said that there are no absolutes in the world, and the same goes for investigating cases. We cannot stick to routine.

"Boss, I'll follow you here. Later, Baozi and I will go to the deceased's house to learn about the situation." Ding Yuan knew that this job was not easy to do, and it was difficult to appease the emotions of the victim's family.

According to Fan Hua's preliminary judgment, the deceased had been dead for three days, and the time of death was probably between the night of August 10 and the early morning of August 11.

"Obvious signs of struggle were found in the area under the body of the deceased. This should be the scene of the crime. However, there are no traces of dragging further away. It can be seen that the deceased either followed the murderer on foot here, or was taken by the murderer in some way without landing.

Come." Wang Tao couldn't hold himself back and spoke.

"Considering that the murderer did not take away the deceased's belongings, it means that the murderer and the deceased were not familiar enough to take her to such a secluded forest. The first possibility can be basically ruled out." Ying Mingyu continued.

"The deceased was wearing a thin summer skirt, and there were signs of tatters on the skirt." Zhang Ke, who followed Fan Hua to observe the corpse, mentioned.

When Wang Tao heard that he immediately asked people to search the trunks and branches of trees, and also designated several different heights: "If the same clothing fibers can be found, we can use this to determine how the murderer took the deceased into the woods. I guess the murderer most likely carried the deceased on his back.

Come in, and once confirmed, you can use the position of the clothing fibers to estimate the height of the murderer."

The forest ground environment is not conducive to collecting footprints, and it is the middle of summer, so even if there is anything left, it will be destroyed by the sun.

Even so, Wang Tao still plans to wait for the sun to rise and conduct a thorough search of the surrounding area.

"Okay, I've said everything I can find. You guys can search slowly. We'll go back to do the autopsy. The conditions here are too bad and the lighting is not enough." Fan Hua saw that the sky was getting brighter, and the original sleepiness was no longer there due to the stimulation of the corpse.

, he felt that he could continue working for more than twenty hours.

Ying Mingyu had called back to the bureau before, saying that he wanted to check previous unsolved cases to find similar cases. He quickly took his team members back to the city, dispersed halfway, and went to visit the deceased's social relations.

Yes, he returned to the bureau by himself.

Fang Jinshi and Meili first conducted a rough screening and singled out unsolved cases similar to rape and murder. Because Ying Mingyu was talking about similar cases in the province and there was no time limit, the base number was a bit large.

Soon they found a similar case from two years ago. Before noon, the nature of the case changed and it was most likely a serial murder.

Ying Mingyu read the information in detail and found that the crime occurred on July 27, two years ago, when a body was found in the woods on the outskirts of Meishi City. The deceased, Ye Xiaojia, was 25 years old when he died. He had real assault injuries and his lower body was

There was no such heavy bleeding as this time.

The photos at the scene are very consistent. The deceased was lying flat on the ground, his clothes were clean and tidy, his long hair was combed smoothly, and his belongings were also placed beside him.

If the restraint injuries can prove that the same murder weapon was used, the two cases will be more likely to be combined.

In this case, semen left by the murderer was found in the body of the deceased, but the test showed no sperm. And the forensic examination determined that the murderer himself had this problem, rather than using other methods to destroy it.

Therefore, although such important physical evidence was left, the suspect's DNA could not be extracted and the evidence could not be compared.

At that time, Meishi City investigated and found out about the potential male patients with this hidden risk in the city's hospitals, but in the end, no suspect was found.

Now it seems that if the two cases can be combined, the murderer may not be from Uishi City.

Then they discovered that a similar rape and murder case had occurred in the city four years ago, and after comparison, it was very likely that it met the conditions for merging the case.

The deceased, Wei Zishan, was only 18 years old at the time of the crime. Her body was found on July 23rd in the woods in the north of the city. She had also been sexually assaulted and semen was found in her body. No sperm was found, so it could not be tested.

Putting the scene photos of the three cases together, there are many similarities. It can be easily seen that the murderer is a person with slight mysophobia and a certain degree of self-cultivation.

In addition, another feeling is that the deceased died tragically and unjustly. The eldest of the three female deceased was only twenty-five years old, and the youngest had just grown up. Their lives had just begun and were coming to an end.

.

There were three cases that had been discovered, and the time span was beyond imagination. When the Bureau heard about it, he reported it to the superiors, and then conveyed the notice that the special investigation team would come to assist in handling the case.

Ying Mingyu got what he wanted. Not to mention the strength in numbers, he finally dragged Chen Chen into the water easily.

Liu Minmin didn't receive a call last night, so after arriving early in the morning, she had no choice but to follow Fang Jinshi to check the files. Finally, when the master came back, he just told her to continue searching.

Although judging from the two cases found so far and the one posted today, it seems that the time was concentrated during the summer vacation in July and August, Ying Mingyu still asked everyone not to give up on cases from other times because the first case is most likely not the case.

The first case of a serial murder case is often closely related to the murderer, whether it is the deceased or the time and manner of death, because the murderer may not have planned to commit another crime, leaving more mistakes for the first time offender.

Ying Mingyu himself also stayed in the bureau to look for files. He always felt that there were still old cases that had not been found.

Chen Chen went directly to the crime scene in the afternoon to meet with the people from the special case team. He arrived earlier and had a few words with Wang Tao first.

Wang Tao, who had a bad temper, found the fiber on the torn skirt in the morning. After returning to the bureau to explain the simulated height, he went back to the woods to expand the area to find other clues about the murderer.

Chen Chen was quite familiar with him. After chatting, he went to see the marked area where the deceased lay. The body had been pulled away, but the traces of struggle on the soil left behind were still very clear. It can be imagined that the deceased had suffered something before his death.

What.

He stood aside and tried to reconstruct the scene when the murderer committed the crime, but when combined with the previous scene pictures, there was still something missing and he could not clearly depict it.

First of all, the character of the deceased is uncertain. Was she conscious and carried into the woods by the murderer, or was she unconscious?

Assume that the deceased wakes up and discovers that the murderer is a pervert. He tries to call for help and struggles to save himself... It does not fit the image of the murderer. The murderer is most likely not a pervert. This imagination does not match.

After the restoration failed, Chen Chen planned to wait until the first case meeting was held before working hard on himself. He raised his head and looked around. The woods here were not dense, and the trees were quite tall. It was midsummer, so it was cool to cover up the sun.

.

To be honest, the environment in which the crime occurred and the body was dumped was a bit leisurely and comfortable. It could be considered secretive. After all, it was a suburban forest that few people visited. It was said to be private but not necessarily private. It was an open space after all.

Is it because the murderer is a bold person, or he prefers this kind of place, or he has no other choice, this is also a question worth considering.

Then Teacher Ji, Luo Yin and Li Lianbing all arrived, and Du Xiuxiu went directly to Fan Hua to participate in the autopsy.

After several people had a general understanding of the scene, they all expressed their trust in Wang Tao's meticulousness, and then rushed back to the city bureau to attend the first investigation meeting of this case, which was also the first joint investigation meeting after the merger of this serial case.

When the task force arrived, the conference room was already full of people, including the police officers who were searching for information around the woods, and Ding Yuan Baozhan who was visiting social relations.

Chen Chen glanced around for a while and found the big trouble that Ying Mingyu wanted to throw at him. There were few women in the police force, and Liu Minmin was sitting next to Ying Mingyu, so it was difficult not to find it.
