I don't know whether it was because Hong Bin snored too loudly or because of the strange woman he met last night, but Xu Lang didn't have a good rest at night and didn't feel energetic when he got up in the morning.
The case analysis meeting was held last night. Xu Lang didn't need to say anything about how to investigate the case.
When Xu Lang got up, Hong Bin happened to come back from outside and brought Xu Lang a breakfast. He also asked Xu Lang how he had rested last night. However, before Xu Lang could answer, he saw Xu Lang's
Behind the slightly dark circles under the eyes, everything is self-evident.
After a simple breakfast, Xu Lang went to the forensic autopsy room to see if the detailed autopsy results were available, and brought Qin Mingyue breakfast by the way.
Qin Mingyue was as calm as ever, or rather indifferent. He was not surprised at all by Xu Lang's arrival.
After a brief chat, Qin Mingyue handed the autopsy report to Xu Lang, and he began to eat breakfast as if no one else was around.
The cause of Cao Sizhe's death has been determined during the preliminary autopsy, and the current detailed autopsy results are the same. Cao Sizhe did die from asphyxia and a broken neck bone. Cao Sizhe's head and limbs were violently torn off, and the external force was very strong.
According to Qin Mingyue's judgment, it was either animals such as cattle and horses, or modern machinery. In short, Cao Sizhe's death was very miserable.
Qin Mingyue conducted a DNA comparison and analysis on a pair of eyeballs and a tongue brought back from the scene after the autopsy. What surprised Xu Lang was that the tongue belonged to the deceased Cao Sizhe, but the eyeballs did not. Strictly speaking, the two eyeballs
Only one eyeball belongs to Cao Sizhe himself, and the other one is not his. According to analysis, the other eyeball belongs to a woman.
As for the identity of the woman, it is still unknown. Qin Mingyue has asked Lu Xing to go to the DNA database for comparison. It is estimated that it will take some time to know the result.
Cao Sizhe's tongue was almost completely cut off, and his eyes were also removed by the wrist. However, only one eyeball has been found, and the other eyeball is unknown to where it went.
The time of death was around June 10th, that is, three days before the body was discovered. The body was relatively well preserved, and there was no large-scale decay or giant appearance. This may be related to the recent weather in S City.
It may also be due to the temperature difference between day and night and the sea breeze, which caused salt to fall on the body. However, the body was still rotten and showed signs of being eaten by animals such as ants.
The clothes on Cao Sizhe's body were relatively complete. Although the clothes were dirty, covered with dust, stains and blood, it could still be seen that the clothes on Cao Sizhe's body were the clothes he wore on the night he disappeared.
The clothes have been handed over to Fan Yang for disposal. Qin Mingyue doesn't know whether there are any clues found on the clothes.
Qin Mingyue dissected Cao Sizhe's body and found no food residue in his stomach, and no ingredients for sleeping pills or anesthetics were found in his blood. Some method may have been used to directly take away Cao Sizhe somewhere in the chest, possibly through words.
The threat may also be a threat of violence. Of course, the use of medicines and the like cannot be ruled out. After all, Cao Sizhe was missing for a week, and he was killed four days after his disappearance. These medicines passed through the metabolism of the human body in four days and were
has been excreted from the body.
There were not many external injuries on Cao Sizhe's body, such as injuries from blows or scrapes. However, restraint injuries caused by rope binding were still seen on his limbs and neck.
This murder case was different from the previous six cases. The murderer's method of committing the crime was very rough. He did not use sharp tools such as scalpels and scalpels, but directly used brute force to kill.
After Qin Mingyue finished breakfast, she looked at Xu Lang and said, "The murderer's method of committing the crime gives people the feeling of a layman."
"Oh? So?" Xu Lang raised his head and looked at Qin Mingyue and asked.
"The dismemberment of the body by five horses is the punishment second only to Ling Chi, and Ling Chi is very skillful for the executioner. Different dynasties have different requirements for Ling Chi. We often see or hear in film and television dramas such as thousands of cuts and thousands of cuts.
The cut is Ling Chi, but most of them only have eight cuts. There are also twenty-four cuts, thirty-six cuts, seventy-two cuts, and one hundred and twenty cuts. The more the number of cuts, the greater the impact on the executor.
The higher the requirement, if the criminal dies before reaching the prescribed number of knives, the executioner will also need to be more skillful. Of course, the number of knives executed is different in different dynasties. The eunuch who was stabbed the most by Lingchi was the eunuch of the Ming Dynasty who committed many crimes.
Liu Jin was cut for three days with a total of 4,700 knives."
When Qin Mingyue said this, her tone was calm, but her eyes were very hot, which made Xu Lang feel a little creepy and helpless at the same time.
If Qin Mingyue lived in ancient times, he would definitely not be a traitor, but an executioner. Of course, this was just Xu Lang's guess.
Xu Lang knew about Ling Chi's punishment. It was one of the top ten tortures in ancient times and was very famous. Dismemberment by five horses was also one of the top ten tortures. However, compared to Ling Chi, dismemberment by five horses was the simplest and most brutal method of execution.
, however, the pain the deceased endured before death was also the most painful.
Qin Mingyue continued: "It stands to reason that if the murderer was really Sun Wenyao's student, he could have killed Cao Sizhe in other ways. However, he chose to use such a barbaric method, which is incomprehensible."
After Xu Lang listened, he shook his head and said, "I have read all the punishments related to the seven deadly sins.
There are two kinds of punishments for the arrogant, one is breaking a car, and the other is carrying a heavy load. If it were in ancient times, carrying a heavy load would be more torturous, while a broken car would be more shocking. However, in today's society, let a person
"Death with a heavy load is simple and easy, but it is difficult to operate, especially when there is only one person committing the crime. However, car cracking is different. As long as it is properly arranged, one person can easily complete it."
Qin Mingyue nodded and said: "Indeed, but this makes it even more difficult to determine whether the murderer is Sun Wenyao's student, or whether someone deliberately imitated the crime."
"Why......"
Xu Lang sighed slightly. Indeed, judging from the current autopsy results, it is indeed difficult to draw conclusions.
After the autopsy results came out, Xu Lang chatted with Qin Mingyue for a few words, and then left the forensic autopsy room and found Fan Yang to ask about the results of the on-site investigation, as well as the arrangement and inspection findings of the deceased's belongings.
Not many relics of Cao Sizhe were found at the scene. Apart from the clothes on his body, basically nothing was found.
The clothes were brand-name clothes with brands on them. When Cao Sizhe's parents saw Cao Sizhe's body, they personally confirmed that the clothes belonged to Cao Sizhe, because Pei Suxue took Cao Sizhe to the mall to buy the clothes after Cao Sizhe returned to China.
The clothes were in tatters, mainly because the clothes and trousers were torn apart by violence. After all, the person had been torn apart by five horses, let alone the clothes.
In the pocket of his coat, I found Cao Sizhe's wallet. In the wallet were Cao Sizhe's personal belongings, ID card, bank card, credit card, membership card, etc. In addition, there was a wad of cash. There was about more than 5,000 yuan in cash.
Chinese coins and foreign currencies were all neatly placed in the wallet and were not taken away by the murderer.
In addition, there was a valuable diamond watch on the wrist of the deceased. The watch was also complete. When Fan Yang was cleaning it, it was still rotating normally.
The expensive watches, wallets and other things are all there, but the only thing missing is Cao Sizhe's mobile phone.
No mobile phone was found in Cao Sizhe's pocket, and Qin Mingyue did not find a mobile phone in the body of the deceased. Fan Yang also did not find a mobile phone when he visited the scene. This means that Cao Sizhe's mobile phone was taken away by the murderer or discarded in the
somewhere.
In response to this situation, Fan Yang had asked Lu Xing to perform technical positioning on Cao Sizhe's mobile phone, but the positioning failed.
There are only two possibilities for this result.
First, the murderer was very familiar with electronic products and knew that the police would locate the mobile phone, so he placed the mobile phone in a place where technical means could not locate it.
Second, the mobile phone has been destroyed by the murderer, making it impossible to trace.
Regardless of the result, it is unrealistic to rely on mobile phone positioning to find clues.
Fan Yang conducted a detailed laboratory analysis of the clothes. In addition to a lot of dust and skin fragments of the deceased, there were only oil stains, blood stains, and a lot of sand on the clothes. These things were mixed together and could not bring anything to the investigation for the time being.
New breakthrough.
Many fingerprints were found on the clothes, but most of them belong to the deceased himself. Some other fingerprints cannot be determined yet. However, they should be left by people who attended the banquet of Zhang Lei’s son’s 100-day banquet. As for what’s inside
It is not yet known whether there are fingerprints of the murderer, and it will take a lot of effort to confirm this.
Since the deceased’s wallet and valuable jewelry were all there, this ruled out the possibility of kidnapping for ransom or killing for money.
The autopsy results have come out. The murderer's methods of committing the crime are very simple and crude, giving people a sense of ingenuity. If we want to determine the direction of the investigation based on the autopsy results, there are temporarily some problems, and the investigation of the scene is also very unsatisfactory.
It was very remote, there were no witnesses, no surveillance cameras, and the environment was harsh. Many clues and details were quietly destroyed by nature before the body was discovered.
The high-tech means of handling cases that the police relied heavily on before are basically ineffective here.
Fan Yang and Qi Xiangming brought back a lot of things from the scene, most of which were garbage brought back around the corpse. After some sorting and testing, there was no breakthrough for the time being.
Cao Sizhe's case has been in a deadlock since the beginning of the investigation. At present, what is worth looking forward to is the visit and investigation around the scene, as well as the investigation of Cao Sizhe's personal relationships, social relations, and family background. However, these tasks are
It sounds simple, but it takes a lot of time and effort to do.
After Fan Yang reported the results of the on-site investigation, she packed her things and prepared to leave. She was going to Cao Sizhe's residence in City S to conduct an inspection to see if she could find anything at his residence.
Xu Lang had nothing else to do, so he left with Fan Yang.
————————————————
Cao Sizhe has lived abroad for nearly ten years. After returning to China, he did not choose to stay in H City to start a business, nor did he go to Shiyang City to work. Instead, he came to S City to start a business.
Maybe Cao Sizhe came to S city to start a business just because of a woman, so he was very thoughtful when choosing a place to live.
Love Apartments.
The love apartment is located in the city center of S city, not far from the CBD. The style of the apartment is actually not very good, but some thought was spent on the decoration. In addition, it is not far from the business district.
Of course renting is not cheap either.
Cao Sizhe lives in Room 102 on the tenth floor. He did not rent here, but bought it directly. As for how much money they spent, Xu Lang and the others don't care.
The apartment is very large, with an upper and lower floor design. The first floor is the living room, dining room, kitchen and bathroom, and the second floor is the bedroom and study room.
The room was very clean. Someone should have cleaned it specially. When he entered the room to investigate, Xu Lang found that the kitchen was spotless. Although there were cooking equipment, there was no sign of cooking. This was normal. After all, Cao Sizhe
I am a man and an entrepreneur in the process of starting a business, and I have no time to cook.
The living room is very large, with two sofas, one large and one small. The sofas are all made of leather, which looks more expensive at first glance. The coffee table is not made of glass, but of wood. There is an ashtray on it. The inside of the ashtray is very clean.
In addition, there are many business-related books and magazines. Opposite the sofa is a hanging large TV, which is turned off.
There is a wine cabinet in the dining room and living room. There is a lot of red wine on the wine cabinet, including some expensive red wine. I don't know if it is used as a storefront or for entertaining guests.
After Fan Yang and Xu Lang briefly inspected the first floor and found nothing unusual, they followed the spiral staircase to the second floor.
There are three rooms on the second floor, one large and two small. The larger one is the bedroom, the smaller one is the guest room, and the other is the study room.
Xu Lang and the others entered the bedroom first.
The bedroom was large and the furnishings were very simple. There was a bed, two wardrobes, and some other small furniture. The quilt on the bed was neatly laid on it, and the wardrobe was closed. Xu Lang walked over and opened one of them.
Wardrobe.
The wardrobe is full of clothes, including suits of various styles. There are two small drawers under the wardrobe, which contain things like belts and ties. The things are placed in categories.
Xu Lang opened another wardrobe. In the wardrobe were not formal suits, but some casual clothes. Most of the clothes were sweaters, T-shirts and the like. Many of the clothes had not been worn before. They were placed very neatly without looking at them.
Something strange happened.
There are two pillows placed on the bed. The pillows are very clean, and there are bedside tables on both sides of the bed. A lamp is placed on the bedside table on the left, a book is placed on the cabinet on the right, and there is a photo table.
The book is an ordinary business book. There are some places circled or folded in it. There is nothing suspicious about it. However, the photo on the table is not of a man, but of a woman. The woman is not someone else.
This is Shen Fang.
Shen Fang in the photo looks very young, with a ponytail and a very simple white dress, looking a little green.
When Xu Lang saw the table set up, his pupils shrank slightly. It was not because Xu Lang was surprised that Shen Fang's photo appeared in Cao Sizhe's bedroom, but when he saw the white dress Shen Fang was wearing, he was surprised.
Xu Lang thought of the strange woman he met last night.
At that time, the woman was also wearing a white dress. The style was very similar to the one worn by Shen Fang. I don't know if it was the same style. If so, then it would be necessary to investigate.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang took out his mobile phone and took a photo. Later, he would go to Shen Fang and ask, maybe she would know something.
Although the bedroom is relatively large, there are not many places that can be inspected. This is mainly because the room is neatly arranged. Whether it is the bed or other places, they are spotless. The trash can is also clean and there is no trace of dust.
It can be seen that Cao Sizhe is a person who loves cleanliness very much and may have a certain degree of mysophobia. As for the extent of mysophobia, it is unknown for the time being. However, this is also normal. Generally, people like Cao Sizhe are arrogant.
People are more or less mysophobic, just like doctors.
After checking the master bedroom, Xu Lang went to the second bedroom.
Compared with the master bedroom, the second bedroom is much simpler. Except for a bed, there are not many extra things. The bed is covered with quilts. Although the room is very clean, there is no trace of human habitation. Xu Langhe
Fan Yang checked briefly, left the second bedroom, and came to the study.
For a business elite or academic person, the study room is often more important than other places and has much more complicated things.
Although the study room is not big, there are many things in it. There is a bookcase that occupies an entire wall. There are many books on the bookcase, most of them are classics. These books are a bit old and do not look like new ones.
The one that was bought as a front was probably bought by Cao Sizhe before and moved here. It seems that Cao Sizhe is still a nostalgic person.
In front of the bookcase is a desk, or it is better to call it an office desk. There is an Apple computer on the desk, as well as some office supplies. In addition, there are two tables placed on the desk. One is Cao Sizhe.
There are personal photos of myself and a group photo of two children who are about ten years old. The boy is Cao Sizhe at first glance, and the girl should be Shen Fang when she was a child.
In the photo, Shen Fang was a little shy, a little nervous, and a little curious, while Cao Sizhe raised his head slightly, looking very arrogant, but the smile at the corner of his mouth betrayed his inner expression.
Xu Lang picked up the photo and frowned slightly.
