Chapter 133: Corpse and missing right little finger!
Morning, ten fifty.
Shu Yunwen and the others stood next to a tall middle-aged man with a mustache, and they were polite to each other.
This middle-aged man is Naoo Iwata, the police chief of Kochi Prefecture and the veritable leader of the Kochi Prefecture police system.
Because the case reported to him by Aida Hikoichi was too shocking, he came over specially to have a look——
Eighteen corpses!
If the bodies of eighteen victims were really recovered from the sea, it would be a truly major case. As a police chief, he would definitely be done with it and would definitely have to resign.
Of course, when he arrived, he also saw "outsiders" like Shu Yunwen and others. He originally planned to disperse the irrelevant people, but first he saw Maeda Mao, the helmsman of a large local conglomerate, and then witnessed the evil in the sea with his own eyes.
The spirit immediately became honest.
The police had sufficient manpower, and two more corpses were recovered from the sea. Together with the previous corpse that was full of microorganisms and had not yet decomposed, a total of three corpses were arranged side by side on the beach.
Next to the corpse was the shroud wrapped around the body, as well as some fragmentary, non-rotted belongings.
The forensic personnel gathered in front of two of the skeletons and pieced together the skeleton of the deceased.
"...Yunfumi-sama, what do you mean..." Iwata asked respectfully.
"Although I will clean up all the evil spirits here before dark, the yin energy here is very strong, which is not a good thing for ordinary people..." Shu Yunwen looked at the situation at the beach and explained, "
All in all, at night, the beach here will become a bit dangerous. It is best for your police to pause the on-site investigation at night and continue it during the day..."
Maeda Mao said seriously: "Chief Inspector Iwata, Mr. Yunwen, you'd better think about it seriously."
"Yes, I understand." Naoto Iwata nodded.
At this time, Aida Hikoichi walked over from the side, wearing a pair of white gloves on his hands. He glanced at Shu Yunwen and the others, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Chief Iwata, the identity of the first corpse and the cause of death."
, have all been identified. The name of the deceased was Yamashita Shihiro, he was fifty-nine years old, unemployed, or a homeless man. As for the cause of death, it was initially determined that he was strangled to death by a thin rope-like object... In addition, we also
It was found that the little finger of the deceased's right hand was missing, and it felt like it had been cut off..."
"Well..." Naoto Iwata responded, pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Shu Yunwen and asked, "Sir Yunwen, may I ask, do you have any opinion on this case?"
"No!" Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes.
Come on, he's a wizard, not a detective.
If any of these evil spirits retain their sanity, Shu Yunwen might be able to easily help find the murderer——
Unfortunately, no.
"Is that so?" Naoto Iwata nodded.
Aida Yanyi reported a few more words, and was about to turn around and leave, but Shu Yunwen suddenly turned his head and looked to the side in surprise: "Ningshi, what did you say?"
Chengshi was suspended in the air and gestured to Shu Yunwen in sign language: "Master Yunwen, I just saw the evil spirits in the ocean. Except for the female evil spirit that you concluded committed suicide, the other evil spirits may have had their right hands cut off before they were alive.
Pinky!”
"Have all the evil spirits had their right little fingers cut off?" Shu Yunwen was stunned for a moment and squinted his eyes.
The state and appearance of ghosts have a certain relationship with their death.
Generally speaking, if a person with mutilated limbs dies and his soul condenses into a human form, the corresponding parts will also be mutilated.
Just like Ogino Tomoya had a wound in his lower abdomen where his appendix was cut, if someone's fingers were cut off before death, there would be corresponding mutilations in the soul.
In addition, if it is cut off after death, the soul will not be mutilated...
If the death conditions of the eighteen victims are the same, then these cases are likely to be committed by the same murderer!
"Yes, that should be right." Chengshi gestured in sign language.
Shu Yunwen turned to look at Hikoichi Aida next to him: "Officer Aida, may I ask if the little finger of the right hand of the other two recovered bones is missing?"
"This... I'm not sure." Aida Hiko was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said, "I'm going to confirm it right now."
As soon as the words fell, Aida Yan ran away, Shu Yunwen and the others also walked in front of the other two skeletons. Several forensic personnel had just received the order and were looking for the finger bones from the scattered bones of the corpse. This scene, Luo Yunwen
In the eyes of several women, it was of course very scary and they turned their heads aside.
About five or six minutes later, several forensic personnel first pieced together the palms of the two recovered skeletons, then nodded seriously and reported: "The right little finger bones of the two deceased's right hands have not been found!"
"Is it possible that it was scattered into the sea?" Naoo Iwata asked.
Aida Yanichi and several forensic investigators who went to the sea to recover the corpses shook their heads: "No, this possibility basically does not exist. The two corpses were wrapped extremely tightly in the cloth that wrapped the corpses, and only the heads were exposed. Although because of
Due to seawater corrosion, these cloths are almost rotten, but we were very careful when salvaging, and there were only a few tears in places..."
While speaking, Aida Hikoichi also pointed to the cloth wrapping the body on the beach nearby.
After a pause, he looked at Shu Yunwen with an extremely complicated expression: "The little fingers of the two deceased people are missing. It is very likely that they were cut off like the victim Shihiro Yamashita. The corpses found in the same place had
With the same characteristics, this is likely to be a serial murder case, and the murderer should be the same person. This place... must have been regarded as a 'disposal place' by him!"
"Well..." Shu Yunwen nodded, "In fact, the remaining fifteen victims should be in the same situation..."
A serial murder case committed by the same murderer! This is really going to be a super big case!
Several people were thinking deeply, and suddenly they heard another forensics officer say: "Officer Aida! A plastic card bag was found on the second deceased, with a piece of paper inside, which seems to be a certificate for receiving unemployment benefits!"
"Can I see any information on it?" Aida Hikoichi asked immediately.
The forensics officer replied: "Because the plastic card is in a hidden waterproof pocket on the inside of the deceased's clothes, there is not a lot of water. The name of the recipient of this unemployment subsidy receipt certificate is Hirota Xia Nan, and the welfare number is XXX..."
“Confirm the information immediately!”
Aida Yan gave the order, and at the same time his eyes were scanning the pile of shabby clothes and sundries behind the two recovered bodies, and his face turned a little dark.
In fact, through these things, he could vaguely judge the occupations of these victims!
In all likelihood, these victims are homeless people on the streets of Kochi Prefecture!
The targets chosen by the murderer are all homeless people who basically have no relatives or friends. Even if they suddenly disappear and are killed, they will not attract much attention!
In addition, the deceased's right little finger was cut off...
This is most likely a psychopathic, crazy murderer who kills just to kill!
