Yu Hanjiang had seen many crime scenes, but this time the scene was indescribably weird - the bathtub was filled with ice cubes, and a woman in pajamas was lying in the middle of the ice cubes with a face full of horror. Her eyes widened, obviously
He was extremely shocked before his death.
This time the secret room was set in a modern urban setting, and Yu Hanjiang was also a criminal policeman, so he brought a lot of tools with him when he came to investigate the case. He put on white gloves and whispered in Xiao Lou's ear: "You do the autopsy first, I'll do the autopsy first."
Collect evidence at the scene."
Xiao Lou nodded, put on sterile gloves and started working.
Yu Hanjiang walked out of the bathroom and quickly glanced at the scene - a two-meter-wide double bed with neatly laid sheets without even a trace of creases, but the hostess was wearing pajamas. Maybe she changed into pajamas after entering the bedroom.
, who was killed while taking a shower, before he could go to bed. Of course, it is not ruled out that the murderer deliberately spread the sheets neatly.
Yu Hanjiang walked over and lifted the sheets, but found no suspicious traces. He picked up the hair on the pillow with tweezers and put it into a sterile bag, ready to take it back for examination.
There is a dressing table about 1.5 meters wide next to the bed, which is piled with skin care products, including dozens of lipsticks. There is also a fashion magazine on the table, with a model wearing a dress printed on the cover.
Yu Hanjiang took a closer look and found that the model was the deceased himself.
Being on the cover of a magazine, it seems that the deceased was a model or star.
Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly and used the equipment he carried to collect fingerprints and blood stains in the room.
The urban background was very convenient, and he could use various professional instruments to assist in collecting evidence... But to his disappointment, in the entire bedroom, only the area around the dressing table had a large number of fingerprints. According to his speculation, it was probably
The deceased's own.
Several pieces of makeup cotton were found in the trash can next to the dressing table, stained with lipstick, foundation and other traces. The deceased should have sat here to remove his makeup before taking a shower.
There was no blood reaction in the entire house, and only blood stains were seen in the bathroom. The murderer was very professional. He may have worn gloves during the crime, leaving no fingerprints, and he cleaned up the scene after killing her.
Yu Hanjiang walked to the window.
The windows were locked from the inside and the curtains were drawn. There were very few residents around the villa, and there were thick blackout curtains in the bedroom. Even if someone passed downstairs at the time of the crime, they would not be able to see into the bedroom.
It will be difficult to find witnesses for what happened.
Yu Hanjiang quickly surveyed the first scene, then went out and walked around every corner of the villa.
He wanted to look for any remaining hair or fingerprints, and found many fingerprints in the living room. Yu Hanjiang collected them and prepared to take them back for comparison and analysis.
In addition, the two assistants he brought to search the living room and the kitchen assistant also reported some useful clues to him: "Captain Yu, seven or eight empty wine bottles were found in the trash can in the kitchen."
Yu Hanjiang took a look, nodded and said, "Take it back for testing."
He also saw traces of red wine on the sofa. Someone must have accidentally spilled it while drinking.
The living room was very clean. Yu Hanjiang glanced around with sharp eyes. There was a policewoman taking pictures at the scene. He took the camera from the policewoman's hand and took pictures of all the suspicious corners.
After searching the entire villa, Yu Hanjiang returned to the crime scene on the third floor.
Xiao Lou was leaning over the body for inspection. There were many forensic instruments in the box he brought with him. Seeing Team Yu come in, Xiao Lou lowered his voice and said: "The fatal injury to the deceased was the knife inserted into the heart."
, the wounds on other parts were also very deep. The murderer probably hated her very much and brutally tortured her before her death. Since the deceased was frozen in ice, it was difficult for me to accurately determine the time of her death."
Usually, an autopsy requires testing the liver temperature, and then determining the time of death based on the stiffness of the corpse's muscles and the appearance of corpse spots.
But now the deceased is frozen in the middle of the ice, and the air conditioning temperature in the room is also very low. The temperature of the liver is greatly affected, and measuring the liver temperature is useless. The stiffness of the muscles cannot be accurately inferred because of the ice.
Yu Hanjiang nodded understandingly: "Well, the murderer probably did it on purpose to confuse the time of her death."
Xiao Loudao: "Judging from the appearance of the body spots, it is initially speculated that her death time should be more than three days. When is the specific time, I will have to take the body back for detailed autopsy."
Xiao Lou took out a transparent sterile bag from the box he carried with him and said, "In addition, I also found this."
Yu Hanjiang took it and took a look. There was a small piece of unknown substance in the sterile bag. Xiao Lou explained: "There were a small amount of skin debris in her nails. She probably scratched the murderer during the struggle. Take it back to test the genes, maybe
It will help solve the case."
Xiao Lou was indeed professional and very careful in examining the body, not even letting go of such small clues.
Yu Hanjiang frowned and looked at the body in the bathtub: "Do you feel that something is not right at the scene?"
Of course, Xiao Lou also discovered this and said tacitly: "There is indeed something wrong. Although there are many cuts on her body, the scene is not bloody at all. It must have been cleaned up. There are no traces on the walls or the surrounding ground.
There were obvious blood stains, the ice cubes caused her blood to clot quickly, and there wasn't much blood in the bathtub."
Speaking of this, Xiao Lou couldn't help but wonder: "Where did so many ice cubes come from?"
Yu Hanjiang said: "I checked the refrigerator. This villa should not be the place where the deceased usually lived. There were only some beers and carbonated drinks in the refrigerator. There was no food, and no ice cubes were found in the freezer layer. Obviously, these ice cubes are the murderer.
It was brought on purpose.”
Xiao Lou thoughtfully said: "It seems that the murderer has been planning for a long time and specially brought ice cubes to kill people?"
Yu Hanjiang thought for a while and whispered in his ear: "We need to confirm the identity of the deceased first and what happened in the past few days. You can go back later to get the evidence to the identification center for testing. I will visit some
Residents nearby, check to see if there are any witnesses."
Xiao Lou nodded: "Okay."
The two looked at each other and went downstairs in tacit understanding.
The bathroom is located in the master bedroom on the third floor of the villa. The small window in the bathroom is not locked. If the cat next door had not suddenly climbed in through the window, this woman's death in the villa might not have been discovered for another month.
The murderer froze her body with ice and deliberately set the air conditioning temperature in the house very low to confuse the woman's time of death and did not want her body to be discovered by neighbors...
The murderer was extremely calm.
Unfortunately, he didn't realize that the bathroom window was closed but not locked.
He would never have thought that adopting a domesticated cat would ruin his plan.
When Yu Hanjiang came to the door of the villa, the trainee police officer Xiao Wu who was accompanying him was chatting with the old lady who reported the crime. Yu Hanjiang walked over and asked: "Auntie, do you know who lives in this villa?"
The old lady shook her head: "I don't know. I have lived here with my son and daughter-in-law for a year, and I have never seen anyone coming back from next door. The curtains in their house are always closed. I thought no one lives in this villa...
…”
Yu Hanjiang asked: "About three or four days ago, did you hear anything unusual?"
The old lady thought about it carefully and suddenly said: "By the way, a car passed downstairs last Tuesday and parked next door. At that time, I happened to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, about two or three o'clock, and heard a noise downstairs.
I opened the curtains and took a look, and there were two private cars."
Yu Hanjiang asked: "Do you still remember the license plate number?"
The old lady smiled apologetically: "Well, I am old and have a bad memory, and it was in the middle of the night. The car was driving very fast. I didn't see it clearly. I only saw black private cars driving into the next door one after another.
I couldn't see anything else clearly in the yard."
In front of the villa is a yard with a garage inside.
The old lady's villa is side by side with the one next door. In addition, the villa area has its own independent garden. There are many trees blocking the two villas. She really can't see the door next door clearly from the window. Therefore, whoever gets out of the car
, the old lady can’t see it either.
The clues provided by the old lady were limited, so Yu Hanjiang nodded to her and called Xiao Wu to find the security guard of the community.
Just now, when the police car drove into the villa area, Yu Hanjiang showed his police officer ID and said he was investigating a case. Several security guards immediately followed him nervously. At this time, when they heard that someone had died in the community, the security guards looked a little ugly.
Yu Hanjiang said: "Take me to the monitoring room."
The security captain immediately cooperated and led the way.
Yu Hanjiang called intern Xiao Wu and came to the security room together.
The security of the luxury villa area is naturally very good. Outsiders generally cannot enter if they are not residents of the villa area.
At this time, they saw a handsome man in police uniform pushing the door open with a serious look on his face. The few security guards who stayed in the monitoring room were all worried. "Officer, what happened?"
Yu Hanjiang said calmly: "Get me all the surveillance records for the past week near Villa No. 191 in Area C. In addition, check the records of vehicles entering and leaving the community after 12 o'clock in the morning last Tuesday night."
Several security guards immediately scrambled to call up surveillance on their computers.
Yu Hanjiang stood beside him with his arms folded, his expression serious.
The security guards did not dare to talk nonsense. After being called out, they said respectfully: "Officer, that's all the surveillance."
Yu Hanjiang walked over and looked at the screen carefully. He found that the area on the road to the entrance of the villa happened to be a black screen. Yu Hanjiang couldn't help but frowned: "Is the camera here broken?"
The security guards looked embarrassed: "This..."
The villa complex is too large, and one or two cameras were broken in some places, and they did not investigate carefully.
Seeing that they were hesitating and unable to explain, Yu Hanjiang ignored the surveillance and said, "I just saw that a license plate reader and an electric pole are installed at the entrance of your community. There should be records of vehicles entering and exiting, right?"
The security captain immediately nodded and said: "Yes, yes."
Yu Hanjiang asked: "If a vehicle is not owned by a resident of the community, does it require registration information to enter the community?"
The security captain said: "Well, outside cars are not allowed to enter our community, but if they are visitors to the community, they can register the reason for their visit at the security office at the door and then drive into the community to park temporarily."
Yu Hanjiang walked to the computer next to him and looked at the vehicle entry and exit information at the door.
After all, this community is a high-end villa area with extremely low population density. There are no more than a hundred households. After 24:00 last Tuesday, there were not many vehicles entering and leaving the community. Moreover, the clues provided by the old lady were very obvious. Yu Hanjiang soon found out
We found two black private cars that drove into the community one behind the other.
To his surprise, both vehicles were authorized by electronic identifiers and drove directly into the community without registration.
He quickly wrote down the license plate number. Bin A-6k502 and Bin A-6k501 were actually consecutive numbers. Yu Hanjiang reacted and said, "Both of these two cars belong to residents of the community?"
The security guard said: "When guests check in, they will register their license plate number with the community property. There are many rich people in our community, and it is common for a family to buy three or four cars. If it is an outside vehicle, it will not be recognized and will be stopped.
.These two cars can be driven directly into the community, and they should be the cars registered by the residents of our community."
Since the vehicle was not intercepted, no one could be seen clearly from the surveillance camera as to who was sitting in the vehicle.
Yu Hanjiang said: "Call the property management company and check these two license plates, as well as the resident information of Villa No. 191 in Area C."
The security guard immediately took out his phone and asked the property management center. After a while, he replied: "The names of the residents and the two cars are registered to Lin Yiyan."
At this point, the security guard was slightly startled: "Does this name sound familiar?"
There was a young man next to him, his eyes lit up, and he said: "It seems like a celebrity...I remembered, isn't this the award-winning actress Lin Yiyan? My girlfriend is a fan of hers!"
br/
Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly - he was actually a celebrity? The cause of this woman's death seemed not simple.
After watching the surveillance, Yu Hanjiang and the security guards visited several residents near No. 191 in Area C to see if the residents had discovered anything. Unfortunately, after a round of investigation, no useful clues were obtained. Several
There is no one living in the house, and the residents who are rarely found also said that they are not familiar with the residents of Villa 191 and have never met them.
Celebrities have to guard against paparazzi, so their residences are usually very secretive, and they are heavily armed when entering and leaving the community to prevent others from seeing them, which makes it very difficult to visit the case.
There were no more clues available in the community, so Yu Hanjiang had no choice but to call to his men: "Close the team."
The police car roared away with its siren honking.
Yu Hanjiang sat in the car and used his mobile phone to check Lin Yiyan's relevant information online——
Lin Yiyan, a contracted star of Starlight Entertainment, has been in the industry for many years and has become very popular. She has over 100 million followers on her Weibo. She is already thirty years old this year, but she looks very young. She has a very dignified appearance and superb acting skills.
She has a wide acting career and has won numerous domestic and foreign film and television awards. She is considered a popular actress in the entertainment industry.
Her last Weibo post was posted a week ago: "The new drama "Red Dust" has been successfully completed. The filming took more than a month. Thank you Director Zhang and the crew for their help and care. Thank you all for your hard work."
There are hundreds of thousands of comments below, all of which are fans saying things like "Goddess is so beautiful" and "Come on Goddess".
Yu Hanjiang searched some keywords along her Weibo.
She just finished filming "Red Dust", a TV series with a heroine in ancient costumes. She plays the role of a princess who has lost her country and fights back to restore her country. In the process, she also has some emotional entanglements with the male lead, the second male, and the third male. It is available on Weibo.
There are a lot of behind-the-scenes photos. The celebrity's Weibo is obviously managed by her agent. The behind-the-scenes photos are all taken during the filming of the drama. They are very beautiful.
I can't tell anything is wrong from Weibo.
Her last Weibo post said that the new drama was finished, and it seemed normal. No one would have thought that she suddenly died tragically at home.
Yu Hanjiang touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then said to Xiao Wu: "After returning home, immediately contact Lin Yiyan's agency to investigate her social connections. This case may involve many people."
The entanglement of interests behind a star is very complicated, including investors, directors, other stars in the circle, fans, agents, assistants, etc. Who has she offended, who has a deep grudge against, and who has the greatest motive to kill her?
It is not that easy to sort out the clues clearly.

【Chapter 242, Entertainment Starlight 02】
After returning to the police station, Yu Hanjiang quickly found out the location of the headquarters of Starlight Entertainment and the company's legal person.
…It’s actually Shao Qingge?!
It's good now. You don't have to look for Mr. Shao everywhere. Let's meet him first.
Yu Hanjiang immediately took action and drove a police car directly to the downstairs of Starlight Entertainment. The security guard at the door wanted to stop him. Yu Hanjiang took out his police officer ID with a cold face: "Police, please cooperate with the case."
Of course the security guard did not dare to stop the police, so he let him in and immediately notified the front desk.
The girl at the front desk hurriedly called Mr. Shao's assistant. After a while, a tall girl took the elevator downstairs and respectfully led Yu Hanjiang to the president's office on the top of the building.
When Shao Qingge saw Yu Hanjiang, he smiled and said to his assistant: "Pour this police officer a cup of coffee."
He made a "please sit down" gesture towards Yu Hanjiang. Yu Hanjiang sat down on the sofa opposite him. The assistant brought in a cup of coffee, and then he consciously withdrew.
Yu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows: "Are you the boss of Starlight Entertainment?"
Shao Qingge joked: "The status assigned this time is more in line with my nouveau riche temperament."
Yu Hanjiang took a sip of coffee and said calmly: "I came to your door. You should have guessed what happened, right?"
Shao Qingge stopped joking and lowered his voice: "This is the first day in the secret room, and someone died? Are you here to investigate the case?"
Yu Hanjiang nodded: "After I entered the secret room, I received a report within half an hour. Xiao Lou and I just went to the scene. The deceased was tortured to death in a private villa. Her name was Lin Yiyan, and she was the star of your company. What do you think about this?
Does anyone have an impression?”
Shao Qingge was slightly startled.
In fact, since he ended the call with Ye Qi, he has been looking through celebrity information on his computer.
There are dozens of stars signed by Starlight Entertainment. The singing group they are currently favoring is the ficve505 girl group, the male star is the popular niche Cheng Yu, and the female star is Lin Yiyan.
The moment Yu Hanjiang opened the door and walked in, Shao Qingge happened to open Lin Yiyan's folder.
Hearing Yu Hanjiang say that this person was dead, Shao Qingge was slightly shocked and quickly turned the computer screen to show Yu Hanjiang: "I have her information here, I haven't had time to read it yet."
While reading the information, Yu Hanjiang asked: "Any news about other teammates?"
Shao Qingge said: "Ye Qi is a signed singer of our company and will participate in the 505 girl group's concert in Binzhou City in three days. Liu Qiao, Teacher Qu, Lao Mo and Long Sen, I asked my secretary to check and found out
Liu Qiao is the assistant of Cheng Yu, the star contracted by our company. Cheng Yu is going to the film and television city tomorrow. He has accepted a TV series called "Twin Flowers", which will start shooting in three days. Liu Qiao should also follow."
"Film and Television City?" Yu Hanjiang couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "It seems that Teacher Qu and the others should be with the crew."
Shao Qingge asked: "Have all our people been scattered?"
Yu Hanjiang speculated: "Xiao Ye went to attend the concert, Liu Qiao followed Cheng Yu to the film and television crew, and Xiao Lou and I have already discovered a deceased person - this secret room is similar to the Beacon in Troubled Times, there should be three lines."
At that time, the war in troubled times, the rebellion case, the death case of the royal lady, and the assassin from the Yan Kingdom were all moving forward in parallel. In the end, they intersected with each other. Once the mystery is solved, all the clues can be connected.
The 9 of Hearts is also a secret room with A-level difficulty. It is not surprising that the three lines are advanced simultaneously.
Shao Qingge said clearly: "It seems that something may happen to Ye Qi and Liu Qiao's crew."
Yu Hanjiang nodded: "So we have to quickly figure out the relationship between the first deceased Lin Yiyan and other celebrities to see if we can find some clues. I will combine the deceased with the 505 girl group and this popular niche Cheng Yu
Read all the information."
Shao Qingge said: "Okay, you can read the information first. I'll call Xiaoye and Lin Yiyan's agent over right away."
He first called Ye Qi and asked Ye Qi to go back to the company on an excuse. As soon as Ye Qi finished getting his hair styled and heard Mr. Shao's words, he asked his agent to take him back to the headquarters of Starlight Entertainment.
After pushing open the office door, he saw that Yu Hanjiang was also there. Ye Qi was shocked, knowing that something big must have happened. He immediately walked in and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Shao, hello Officer Yu."
Shao Qingge: "..."
Yu Hanjiang: "………………"
This upside-down hair looks like the protagonist of a hot-blooded shounen anime entering a fighting state.
Shao Qingge held back a smile and touched his nose: "Your look...is quite personal."
Ye Qi blushed and explained softly: "Shamate style, teacher Tony made it for me, and I'm not satisfied with it either."
Yu Hanjiang coughed lightly, ignored Ye Qi's cockscomb hair, and roughly told Ye Qi about the situation of the deceased.
Ye Qi's eyes widened: "The one who died was a popular movie queen? This is so exciting!"
Shao Qingge said: "Until I find out more, I will control the public opinion and not announce it to the public for the time being."
Yu Hanjiang nodded in agreement and warned: "Xiaoye, something may happen at the concert in three days. The deceased Lin Yiyan may have some grudges with the people of the 505 girl group. You have to keep your eyes open at the concert and don't miss anything.
clue."
Ye Qi nodded seriously: "Understood."
Shao Qingge said: "I'm not worried about Ye Qi going to the concert alone. I'll find an excuse to attend the concert in three days." He paused and then said: "As for Liu Qiao and his crew, I
Now we are trying to find a way to inform Liu Qiao to join the others and keep a close eye on the crew."
The boss of the entertainment company has the phone numbers of all the stars and agents here.
Although the assistant's number was not available, Shao Qingge could directly contact Cheng Yu's agent to ask for her. Although the agent was a little confused as to why the boss was looking for an assistant, she cooperated and gave Liu Qiao's number to Shao Qing when the boss asked.
grid.
Shao Qingge made the call and said, "Xiao Liu, it's me."
Liu Qiao recognized the other party's voice: "Mr. Shao?!"
Shao Qingge handed the phone to Yu Hanjiang, and Yu Hanjiang lowered his voice and said: "Xiao Liu, the first death has appeared. Something may happen to your crew next. Keep an eye on the actor Cheng Yu you are following.
, and also inform other teammates not to worry, Professor Xiao and I are still investigating the first case and will find a way to join you as soon as possible."
Liu Qiao was stunned for a moment and said: "The first case? Has someone died already?"
Yu Hanjiang said: "Yes, the female star Lin Yiyan of Starlight Entertainment was murdered. Professor Xiao and I are investigating. Cheng Yu and Lin Yiyan are in the same company. Does he know this female star and what is their relationship like?
, you can also try to make excuses. Don’t tell anyone about Lin Yiyan’s death for the time being.”
Liu Qiao said: "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Hanjiang made a copy of the information on Mr. Shao's computer, and then asked Shao Qingge to call Lin Yiyan's agent - it was convenient to have Mr. Shao looking for someone, and the boss would just give him a call.
No matter how busy the agent is, he has to come back immediately.
Half an hour later, Lin Yiyan's agent hurriedly opened the door to the president's office.
Her agent is a man in his thirties. The man's name is Qi Ming. He is the company's ace agent and has brought out many popular idol stars. After hearing the news of Lin Yiyan's death, the man's face suddenly changed.
As black as the bottom of a pot, he asked with a trembling voice in disbelief: "How is that possible?! You said she is dead? She even sent me a WeChat message last night!"
The man took out his mobile phone and saw that the person with the note "Xiaoyan" on the mobile phone sent him a WeChat message, writing: "Brother Ming, I was really tired from filming "Red Dust" before. I want to rest for a few more days and spend some time with you."
My family is going on vacation abroad. Can you please stop looking for me in the past few days and give me some independent space? I will get back to work immediately after I come back."
Qi Ming replied: "No problem, you have worked hard all year, so you should take a few days off to have a good rest. I will help you reject the recent announcements and have fun."
The conversation last night only consisted of these few simple sentences, and going forward, it was all about announcements.
According to Xiao Lou's speculation, Lin Yiyan's death time should be more than three days. Why did he send a WeChat message to his agent last night?
Yu Hanjiang said coldly: "This is what the murderer sent you."
Qi Ming shuddered when he heard this: "You mean, Xiao Yan's mobile phone is with the murderer, the murderer?"
The murderer sent the message to the agent, naturally to create the illusion that "Lin Yiyan is still alive."
The ice and low temperature at the scene will prevent the body from smelling and rotting so quickly. Lin Yiyan's death will naturally not be known to anyone. Maybe in a few days, the agent will find Lin Yiyan, and the murderer can continue to use Lin Yiyan's body.
Yan’s cell phone chatted with her manager, pretending that Lin Yiyan was still alive...
At this moment, Yu Hanjiang's mobile phone received a message from Xiao Lou: "The autopsy results are out. Lin Yiyan's death time was after 3 a.m. last Tuesday. She drank a lot before her death. There is a sign on the bottle
They are all her fingerprints. In addition, the skin and hair genes remaining in her fingernails, we have checked and verified the gene bank, and they belong to her agent Qi Ming."
Yu Hanjiang put away his mobile phone and stared sharply at the man in front of him: "Where were you in the early hours of last Tuesday?"
