Serious Crime Unit 1

Chapter 342 Cold Family Love (9)
"You won't commit suicide, will you? Sister Yeju was a junior high school student in the early days of liberation. She also worked as a private teacher in a village primary school. She gave birth to seven children when she was young and raised them on an empty stomach. I have never heard her say a word of suffering. She is as tough as a ten thousand year old vine (a semi-evergreen twining shrub) and has tenacious vitality. How could she commit suicide? In her later years, her children are very promising, and they have no worries about food, clothing, and savings. Life has just begun, how can you commit suicide? My guess is that a thief went to her house to steal something, and when she discovered it, the thief killed her out of desperation."

Her grandmother spoke slowly, with a look of regret on her face.

Xiao Ke knew that Bao Yeju's autopsy showed no resistance injuries and that it was unlikely that he was killed by a thief, but he did not refute his grandmother.

"I think he might have been killed by Huang Xiaoqiang." Guan Zizhen said.

"Why?" Xiao Ke was slightly surprised.

"Huang Xiaoqiang values ​​money more than life. He has suffered from stomachache for several years and is reluctant to spend money to see a doctor. When the disease attacks, he takes painkillers that cost ten cents each. Huang Xiaoqiang's two brothers and four sisters take them every month. To give money to their mother, he heard that she had saved more than 2 yuan on her social security card. The social security card only had a password as simple as 123456. It was too easy to withdraw money. He wanted to pay off the debt for building a house immediately, so it was possible to fight Her idea.”

"Zizhen, don't talk nonsense. I object to Zizhen's statement, because sister Yeju loves Huang Xiaoqiang the most. When sister Yeju gave birth to him, she was already 40 years old and had no milk. Huang Xiaoqiang bit her nipples hard and it was all gone. When he bit her and it bled, Yeju endured the pain and let Huang Xiaoqiang suck her blood until he was full. Even an animal knows how to be grateful, right?" Lu Yingying's grandmother said.

"Mom, there are too many ungrateful people in the world. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known about his mother's death for a week. If Guan Daliang hadn't discovered her when he passed by, she might have been found dead until she was left with only white bones."

When Xiao Ke wanted to learn more about Bao Yeju from Guan Zizhen, a voice suddenly came from the hall: "Officer Ke, are you at home?" When Xiao Ke heard the voice of Zhu Gang, he walked from the kitchen to the hall. , I saw him standing in the hall looking at a couplet on the main wall: The golden furnace is constantly burning for thousands of years, the jade lamp is ever bright, and the long live lamp is horizontally inscribed: Worship God as if you are here.

"Captain Zhu, why don't you make a call if you want to come? Let's eat together, we are eating right now." Xiao La said, holding Zhu Gang's hand.

"I ate in the township government cafeteria... The case came to a dead end. My colleagues and I were under great pressure, so we held a meeting to discuss and decided to invite your No. 1 Major Crime Team to come and provide guidance. Your and Officer Lu's honeymoon vacation has also come, right? ?”

"Yes, we plan to return to the provincial capital tomorrow."

"I implore you two to stay. I have already sent an invitation to Captain Jiang and obtained permission from Captain Jiang to allow Officer Wu and Medical Examiner Luo to come down for guidance. Che Xiaolin has already driven to the provincial capital to pick them up, so I I came here specially to ask you two to come out."

"We are not Kong Ming, so why are we talking about going out? Since Captain Jiang agrees, of course we must obey the order."

"Police Officer Wu and Forensic Doctor Luo are already on the way. They will arrive at Guping Village around 3 p.m. They have already read the case file and learned about the details. I asked Director Guan to arrange food and accommodation at the village committee office building. I hope they can I succeeded immediately and won this case in one fell swoop. I issued a military order to the director. If the case is not solved, I will never leave Guping Village. Of course, you gave me this courage, and I firmly believe in your ability!"

"Thank you, Captain Zhu, for your trust. We are so confident too." After Xiao Ke said this, he invited Zhu Gang to the living room on the second floor to sit down and watch TV. He went downstairs to continue eating.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Che Xiaolin drove Luo Jin, Wu Jiang and Chen Li into Guping Village in a police car and stopped at the entrance of the village committee. After they got out of the car, Zhu Gang hugged them warmly, Xiao Ke and Lu Yingying I also shook hands with Wu Jiang and Luo Jin who had been away for half a month.

Wu Jiang said to Xiaoke: "You two are really good at choosing places. They are more beautiful than paradise. When your sister-in-law and I got married, we only had three days off and could only visit the province. I really envy you."

"I also envy you and your sister-in-law, who have spent 20 years of marriage together through thick and thin!" Everyone said as they walked towards the village committee office.

Zhu Gang explained the investigation process to Wu Jiang and Luo Jin in detail. Wu Jiang said: "There are many reasons why the case has reached a deadlock. I speculate that it may be that you missed something when you investigated the scene. I can't blame you, because the equipment at the grassroots level must be better than Our province is far behind the city. The only way now is to go back to the scene and see if we can make any new discoveries."

"Okay, I listen to Officer Wu. Let's go to the scene now." Zhu Gang led everyone outside Bao Yeju's house in the west of the village.

Bao Yeju's door was locked with a large padlock with a seal from the Public Security Bureau. Zhu Gang took out the key, opened the lock, and pushed the door open.Wu Jiang was not in a hurry to enter the scene. He walked around the house, then stood on the stone ridge behind the house, looking at the whole house. After looking at it for a while, he turned around and looked back, and then returned to the stone ridge where the mountain meets the house. The stone ridge is about 1.5 meters away from the eaves of the kitchen and two meters above the ground. Behind the stone ridge is a mountain. There is a dense patch of moso bamboo growing on the mountain. There are almost no weeds in the bamboo forest, and there are a few chickens looking for food.

Wu Jiang only entered the scene after looking at the outside. Because the scene was blocked, there was no ventilation, and the kitchen was still filled with a stinky smell.The recliner that carried the deceased was still silent. It was close to the earthen wall of the kitchen, about two meters away from the dining table on the left. There was a 20*20 cm square hole on the wall between the dining table and the recliner for ventilation. It is open in hot weather and closed in winter. Many old rural houses have such holes in the kitchen. Except for cats and mice, no one can get in through the hole.

The depth of the hole is about 40 centimeters, and the surface of the hole is painted with lime. Wu Jiang already knew the case well, but when he arrived at the scene, his feeling was completely different because the house was located at the foot of the mountain, dark and damp, and the kitchen roof was very low. It gives people a sense of gloom and depression.

A lonely old man lives here, and you can imagine his mood.Most of the elderly people in Guping Village have moved into new houses, but Bao Yeju, who has given birth to seven children, still lives here. Will she be desperate?
This is a large house with civil structure, including the kitchen, covering an area of ​​about 300 square meters. There are bedrooms on the left and right sides, 10 in total, and a hall and a back hall in the middle. This was considered a luxury house in the rural areas in the past, and it can be seen that the house was full of descendants. , it was very popular, but now it is empty and desolate.

Wu Jiang knew that Zhu Gang and the others had inspected every room, even every corner upstairs, so it was impossible to miss fresh footprints.Because the cement floor is full of dust, as long as you walk on it, you will leave shoe prints.

After Wu Jiang looked at all the rooms, he returned to the kitchen and came to the ventilation hole. After careful observation, he suddenly found that there were fresh scratches on the upper wall of the hole, and there was a trace amount of lime sprinkled on the lower wall of the hole. The scratch was about 10 Centimeter, what scratched the upper wall of the hole?
Wu Jiang called Zhu Gang over to take a look. After Zhu Gang looked at it, he asked in confusion: "Brother Ang, what can't I see?"

"You probably haven't observed this cave entrance at that time, right?"

"No, there's no blood on it, and people can't get in from here, so we won't take it seriously."

"Look, there is a scratch on the upper wall of the cave. All the fallen lime has not been blown away by the wind, so I think it is fresh." Wu Jiang pointed to the upper wall of the cave and said.

"What's the point of this?" Zhu Gang asked puzzledly.

"Any trace at the scene will speak for itself. When many cases reach a deadlock, we will return to the scene, because the criminal police are not gods, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions. However, once a tiny trace is missed, it may lead to death, so there must be more Returning to the site for exploration, it is like a gold digger, who has to go through countless washes before he can find gold."

"Yes, we often return to the scene, but what is the value of this scratch?" Zhu Gang is impatient and likes to get straight to the point.

"When I saw this trace, an idea slowly formed in my mind, but it was not yet mature and I was not sure whether it was correct." Wu Jiang was in a thinking state.

"It doesn't matter if it's not correct. Solving crimes is like life. You always have to go through thousands of mountains and rivers before you know where to go. You can't get to the core at once."

"Then I will tell you what I think and let everyone analyze it. I think these are scratches left by the weapon that killed Bao Yeju. I suspect she committed suicide.

"The situation is like this: Bao Yeju's wife died young, and her children did not support her. She was completely desperate for life, so she wanted to commit suicide. Before committing suicide, she thought of many ways to disguise the scene as a homicide.

"So, she bought a long rubber band, or connected several rubber bands together, tied the rubber band to the end of the bamboo, then stretched the rubber band through the hole, tied the murder weapon on the front end of the rubber band, and then sat down on this In front of the recliner, try your best to tighten the rubber band so that the moso bamboo becomes curved.

"Finally, she stabbed the murder weapon into her abdomen, then let go, and the bamboo bounced back, so that the murder weapon flew out of the hole. However, during the flight, the murder weapon would inevitably scratch the upper wall of the hole, so it remained I've got this scratch." Wu Jiang said calmly and calmly.

"Angkor, I think it's impossible. First, the murder weapon contains the blood of the deceased. If it scratches the upper wall of the cave entrance during flight, it will definitely leave blood marks, but there is no blood around the scratches; second, Bao Yeju She is an elderly person, how could she know how to use such a trick? Third, why did she bolt both doors when she wanted to commit suicide? Fourth, why did we not find the murder weapon that flew to the back of the house? In short, there are many unreasonable things ." Zhu Gang said.
