I am a super cop

Chapter 499 More than one murderer?
Director Gao was very pleased to see Gu Chen standing at the door and also knew the residents of Windmill No. 9.

After all, I have heard of Gu Chen's reputation in the Furong branch.

Especially when going to the Furong branch for a meeting, Director Zhao Guozhi mentioned learning from Gu Chen every time.

Not only the work attitude, but also the professional level, these are the things that Zhao Guozhi often talked about.

Originally, I just wanted the Furong Branch to send a criminal investigation team to assist in the investigation...

I didn't know who they were before, but after Zhao Guozhi's phone call, when he learned that the criminal investigation team who came to assist in the investigation were Police Officer Wang, Lu Weiwei and Gu Chen, Director Gao obviously felt at ease.

After all, with Gu Chen around, this is the greatest guarantee.

"Gu Chen." Director Gao called him, breaking Gu Chen's thinking barrier: "Since you know this family, then I think this case belongs to you."

Gu Chen nodded and said as he walked, "Director Gao, I have indeed contacted this family, but I don't know much about it."

"Gu Chen, you don't have to be modest, I'll take you in and have a look." After Director Gao finished speaking, he immediately pushed the door open gently.

At this moment, when the door was pushed open, everyone saw an extremely terrifying scene.

In the living room of Windmill House No. 9, there were three cold corpses, one of which Gu Chen could recognize at the door.

This is exactly the single mother Wan Xin who chatted with me on the lawn of the Dafengche Resort Hotel a week ago.

Beside Wan Xin lay the bodies of two boys.

The scene was so miserable that Lu Weiwei couldn't bear to look directly at it, so she quickly turned her head to the outside.

After looking at the situation at the scene, Gu Chen turned around and asked Director Gao: "Suo Gao, when you arrived, was the scene damaged?"

"No?" Director Gao was not sure, and explained: "It was the daughter of the deceased who opened the door when she came home early in the morning and found the situation. Then she immediately called the police. We also rushed to the scene as soon as possible and sealed off the place. surrounding area, so there should be no damage here.”

"Where is Wanxin's daughter now?" Gu Chen asked.

Director Gao glanced at Zhang He, and hurriedly urged: "Xiao Zhang, go and call her daughter over."

"Yes." Zhang He replied, and then hurried outside.

Not long after, he brought a little girl about ten years old.

At this moment, the little girl seemed to have not come out of the shadow of her mother's death, her body was trembling, and she hid behind Zhang He and dared not move forward.

"Little girl, come quickly." Lu Weiwei waved to her.

The little girl slowly poked half of her head out from behind Zhang He, and when she saw her mother's body in the living room, she shrank back in fright.

This made Zhang He in the front row very embarrassed. He hurriedly said, "I said, little girl, these are the policemen who came to handle the case. If you don't tell them what you saw at the time, how could they find the murderer?"

"If the murderer can't be found, then your mother and these two brothers died in vain."

"One is not my younger brother." Seeing Zhang He persuading him, the little girl said.

Gu Chen frowned, looked at the bodies of the two boys on the ground, and couldn't help asking her curiously: "You mean... among these two little boys, only one is your brother?"

The little girl nodded.

"What about the other one?" Gu Chen asked.

"My brother's friend," said the little girl.

Gu Chen is a little curious now...

He hurried to the little girl at the door, knelt down and patted the little girl's shoulder, and asked softly, "Little girl, can you tell me your name?"

"Wan Qi." The little girl said.

Gu Chen gasped, "Same surname as your mother?"

"Yeah." Wan Qi nodded, and said: "After my parents divorced, I have been following my mother, so I took my mother's surname."

Speaking of this, Wan Qi suddenly burst into sobs, wiped away her tears, and began to cry again: "I'm scared, I'm so scared, they will all lie there as soon as the door is opened, I don't want this, I want my mother."

Gu Chen patted her head and said comfortingly, "Don't cry, calm down first, and tell me everything you saw from yesterday to today, okay?"

I also feel that when communicating with a child who has just lost his mother, we should not ask too directly. Gu Chen still needs to speak softer.

Wan Qi rubbed her swollen eyes, glanced at Gu Chen, then nodded.

"Okay." Seeing Wan Qi calmed down, Gu Chen asked her: "Then let me ask you, you said you opened the door early this morning, and found your mother, brother, and brother's friends lying here. There are a few doubts."

"What doubt?" Wan Qihong asked with eyes.

"First, did you not go home last night?" Gu Chen asked.

Wan Qi didn't even think about it, she just nodded and said: "Yeah, I watched TV with my sister yesterday at a friend's house. It's in Windmill House No. 3, which is my classmate's house."

"It was very late watching TV at that time, my sister went home first, and I lived with my classmates. I was going home for breakfast early this morning, and as soon as the door opened..."

"I see." Gu Chen heard from Wan Xin that there are some villagers living here, and most of their children are of the same age.

And everyone has a good relationship, and it's normal for children to live with each other.

But at this point, Gu Chen seemed to have discovered something that he was terrified of. He hurriedly asked again: "It's not that you wait, you just said that you were watching TV at a classmate's house with your sister, and your sister came back very late. Rest at home, what about your sister? Where is your sister?"

"I don't know." Wan Qi said here, and suddenly burst into tears: "My sister is gone, she is gone, woo woo."

"Ah?" Director Gao felt dizzy when he heard it, "Little girl, why didn't I hear you mention it just now?"

"I'm afraid." Wan Qi said with a sad face.

Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei also looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling that the complexity of the situation here seems to be far beyond everyone's imagination.

"My sister is gone too?" Lu Weiwei also frowned slightly, and said involuntarily, "What should I do? It's not only a murder case, but also a missing person. This... what happened to this family?"

"That's right, could it be that this murderer is responsible for my younger sister's disappearance?" Police Officer Wang didn't know what to do.

It feels like there must be something strange here.

Gu Chen didn't panic, but let himself calm down as soon as possible.

But Wan Qi's answer just now really made me feel suspicious.

Gu Chen took out the notebook, recorded all Wan Qi's remarks just now, and then asked her: "That is to say, after your sister left last night, she just disappeared?"

"Yes." Wan Qi said.

Gu Chen asked again: "Then do you remember when my sister left?" About what time in the evening?The more accurate the better. "

Wan Qi scratched her head and said thoughtfully, "It seems to be... 11 o'clock in the evening, oh no, it should be 11 minutes past 8 o'clock."

"Why is it so accurate to have an extra 8 points?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"Because we are chasing a drama, this drama will end at 11:8pm every day, so my sister left after watching the drama, and it will not exceed 1 minute at most."

Also hearing Wan Qi's reply, Gu Chen had a new idea in his mind, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "That is to say, when my sister returned home at 11:8 p.m., it is very likely that the murderer was found committing the murder. , and then was kidnapped and taken away by the murderer?"

"It's not impossible." The high police officer on the side walked back and forth twice, and said, "If the murderer bumps into him, it's okay."

"The time is around 11:8 p.m.." Gu Chen wrote down the time of the incident in the notebook, and then circled it with a pen.

Looking at the bodies of the two boys on the ground, Gu Chen asked again: "Then why do your brother's classmates live in your house? Do they usually come to live?"

"Yes." Wan Qi nodded and said, "My younger brother's classmates often come to play at home."

"Then your brother's classmate also lives in the Windmill Resort Hotel?" Gu Chen said.

Wan Qi shook her head like a rattle: "I don't live here, but in the town, but he likes to come here to play. My younger brother had dinner at his house yesterday, so he came to my house to eat at night."

"And my mother knew her too, so she didn't say anything."

After getting the basic information of the three people, Gu Chen came to the corpse at the scene and prepared to test the three corpses.

After putting on the white gloves, Gu Chen first gently lifted off the red blanket covering Wanxin's body, and then asked Director Gao: "Gao Suo, is this blanket covered by you?"

"No." Director Gao shook his head and said involuntarily, "We found the blanket when we came to the scene, and it may have been covered by her daughter Wan Qi."

"I didn't cover it." Wan Qi shook her head, and continued: "I haven't touched the blanket. When I opened the door, the blanket covered my mother. I don't know why?"

"Could it be that the murderer did it?" Gu Chen frowned and thought for a few seconds before suddenly realizing: "That's right, covering the deceased with a red carpet, judging from the details of the blanket covering the body, it seems that the murderer was more serious and suitable for acquaintances." Guilty after committing a crime."

"You... what did you say?" Director Gao was also taken aback, and quickly asked Gu Chen again, "You mean...these people were probably killed by acquaintances?"

"That's right." After a short pause for a few seconds, Gu Chen still insisted on his previous opinion: "Gao Suo, look, from the neatness of the red carpet, do you think the murderer threw it on her body? "

Director Gao and police trainee Zhang He came to Wanxin's body one after another, and carefully inspected the blanket according to Gu Chen's prompt.

At this time, Zhang He, a trainee police officer, suddenly said: "Gao Suo, Senior Brother Gu is right, you see, the neatness of this blanket is very suspicious, it looks like after killing the other party, he carefully put a blanket on the other party Like."

"If it is thrown away casually, it will be a lump. There must be some wrinkles, and it will not be so neat at all."

"Isn't this murderer too abominable?" Lu Weiwei stepped forward and said with a beautiful voice, "If it's as Gu Shidi guessed, it means that the murderer is very perverted."

"What does he think of himself? A good person? After killing Wan Xin, he even covered her with a blanket and made it so neatly. Is this murderer out of his mind?"

"It's possible that the other party was familiar with Wan Xin, but after killing someone, he regretted it, so he covered Wan Xin with a blanket as a way of atonement," Police Officer Wang said.

Seeing that Gu Chen remained silent, Police Officer Wang said again: "I handled a murder case before, and the murderer was like this. I feel guilty. After all, I am an old acquaintance, so even the murderer himself may ignore this detail."

"Fortunately, our Zhao Bureau at that time saw these flaws at a glance. Thinking about it now, Gu Chen, you are somewhat similar to Zhao Bureau in this regard."

"Really?" Gu Chen was also relieved: "Maybe we all pay more attention to details. After all, the scene is dead, but the clues are alive. Any subtle clues can actually speak."

"Junior Brother Gu." After Lu Weiwei hesitated again and again, she asked, "Then who do you think it could be?"

Gu Chen shook his head: "I don't know yet, but I can be sure that Wan Xin doesn't have many acquaintances, because she moved to Dahe Town from another place and it wasn't very long."

"I usually have to raise several children and go to work, so the people who have frequent contact with her should be countable."

"Huh? What's this?" While Gu Chen was explaining, Lu Weiwei suddenly discovered that the feet of the two boys were bound together by wires and medical tape.

Both bodies were battered and bloodstained.

Gu Chen turned around and asked Wan Qi: "Which of these two little boys is your younger brother?"

"The one in blue," Wan Qi said.

Gu Chen nodded, and continued to conduct a general inspection of the wounds on the three bodies.

After investigation, Gu Chen discovered that single mother Wan Xin and younger brother Wan Qi both died of blunt force blows to the head, and they were also stabbed many times.

As for Wan Qi's brother's friend, in addition to having a blunt force wound on the head and a knife wound on his body, he was also choked.

And on the floor next to the corpse, there was a blood-stained jackknife.

Gu Chen gently picked up the knife and put it in the middle of his palm.

Then, according to the length and width of the blade of the folding knife, comparing the wounds on the three people, it is basically certain that this is indeed one of the murder weapons that killed the three people.

"Really?" Director Gao kept silent during Gu Chen's injury inspection, and now he really wanted to know the outcome of the matter.

Gu Chen just nodded slightly, and said lightly: "I have already based on the size of the wound, as well as the length and width of the blade of the knife, yes, this is indeed the murder weapon."

"But the corpse's head clearly showed signs of blunt trauma." Lu Weiwei said.

Gu Chen nodded: "Senior Sister Lu is right, so this folding knife is just one of the murder weapons."

"We still have to find other murder weapons, including this child. There are obvious strangle marks on his neck, which shows that the murderer's method of committing the crime is extremely cruel, but I still can't figure out one thing."

Seeing that Gu Chen had doubts, Zhang He, a trainee policeman, hurriedly asked him, "Senior Brother Gu, what are your doubts?"

"It's the three dead." Gu Chen looked at the three cold corpses on the ground, and said involuntarily.

Lu Weiwei was stunned: "Is there... is there something wrong with the deceased? Did Junior Brother Gu see something?"

"Of course." Gu Chen stood up straight away, pointed at the three corpses and said, "Didn't you find out? Wan Xin is an adult, and these two children must be at least seven or eight years old. "

"At this age, when encountering dangerous behaviors, they will instinctively resist no matter what."

"However, the three of them are all strong and able-bodied people. It is not an easy task to subdue them, tie them up and kill them."

"And the houses around the No. 9 windmill house are inhabited, but why didn't they hear anything?"

"Also, if the murderers are attacking one by one, is it necessary to stab so many knives in each other's body? Even if they are stabbed with knives, any one of them will definitely cry out in pain when they are hit hard. "

"But at the scene, I didn't see any signs of the three struggling. It seemed that they didn't even have basic resistance."

"And it was still late at night, almost in the early morning, and it was in the suburbs of Dahe Town."

"As long as someone yells and calls for help, the people around will definitely hear it, right? Isn't it very suspicious?"

"That's right." Upon hearing Gu Chen's words, Police Officer Wang couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He hurriedly said, "If the three of them were killed in such a silent manner, there is only one possibility."

"What kind?" Lu Weiwei glanced at Police Officer Wang.

"It's just that there is more than one murderer." Officer Wang said, "If you think about it, the three of them can be silenced and stabbed in multiple places. This only shows that the three of them must not have been killed one by one. They were killed, but killed at the same time."

"Could it be...is it a gang committing crimes?" Hearing that the situation seemed to be getting more and more serious, Director Gao was shocked, and hurriedly said: "I said, Lao Wang, if this is really what you said, then it will be a crime." It’s hard to handle, it seems our Dahe Town is about to enter into troubled times.”

"If this is spread, it will be difficult for Dahe Town to attract business in the future. Who would dare to come here in the future?"

"Just bring them to justice." Seeing that Director Gao was overly nervous, Gu Chen said calmly, "Actually, we have already narrowed down the scope of the investigation. What we need now is nothing more than more investigations." clue."

Glancing at the other rooms, Gu Chen hesitated and said, "What's the meaning of these three people not sleeping in the room and dying on the floor at night?"

"Because someone is sleeping in the room." At the same time when Gu Chen was puzzled, Wan Qi, the little girl who had been timid before, brought Gu Chen's attention back to her with one sentence.

"What did you say? Is there... someone else in the room?"

Wan Qi nodded: "There is another brother of mine in the room, as well as my brother's classmate, who is also my neighbor. The two of them slept in the room last night. They didn't know what happened in the living room until today when they woke up. what."

"Wait!" Gu Chen was also a little headache from the increasingly weird operations on the scene, he quickly put his hands on Wan Qi's shoulders and asked: "Then you, brother, and your brother's classmates, where are you now?" ? Are they injured?"

Wan Qi shook her head: "Not only were they not injured, but they were also sleeping soundly. Now they are all at the neighbor's house, and my brother is terrified."
