Serious Crime Unit 1

Chapter 70 Devil’s Eye (10)
The summer in the Yangtze River is windy and rainy, and the weather is hot and humid. This season not only makes citizens upset, but also makes them palpitate, because heavy rains will be accompanied by thunder and lightning. According to statistics: 15 to 20 people die from lightning strikes every year , the biggest accident was a lightning strike in the summer of 2005, which killed 7 sixth-grade students and injured 15 others in a primary school located on a hillside on the outskirts of the city, causing a major natural disaster.

In the evening, rows of dark clouds drifted from the south and accumulated over the Yangtze River City. The clouds became thicker and thicker, like a large inverted black pot. It seemed to suffocate people and make them unable to breathe. After dinner, there was a sudden dazzling eye. Lightning pierced the clouds, and then a thrilling thunder resounded through the sky, and suddenly it started to rain heavily. The whole city was instantly ravaged by wind, rain, thunder and lightning. The rain came fiercely, and under the urging of thunder and lightning, it fell heavier and heavier, as if it was bent on destroying the entire city. Like drowning.

It was nearly 12 o'clock in the evening, and the rain had subsided slightly, but the city was still dark. Although Lin Yihong was already over [-] years old, her charm still remained. Because she had a good singing voice and danced well, she had many friends. Invite her to sing and dance in a nightclub. Even on such a rainy night, she still goes to the Oriental Karaoke Hall to sing with her friends.

After the show, she was a little scared to go home alone. Her good friend saw her thoughts and drove her home. After waving goodbye to her friend at the door, she took out her key and opened the door carefully. After entering, she She turned on the light switch and walked to the third floor. Her son Lin Lang was not in the living room. There were books, papers, tissues and other things falling everywhere on the floor. The strong wind swept in from the study room, making a roar like a wolf. , her body was shaking slightly, and she shouted: "Lin Lang, Lin Lang..." But no one answered her. She ran into the study, turned on the wall lamp, and saw Lin Lang sleeping on the desk. There was a book on the right side of the desk. The bottle of Qingshan brand liquor was half-drunk, and the computer was still on. The glass door leading to the balcony from the study room was open and the wind blew in from there. The rain wet half of the study room. Lin Yihong thought Lin Lang was drinking Duo fell asleep, and she wanted to push him to wake him up and ask him to go back to the bedroom to sleep. She pushed Lin Lang gently, but he didn't respond. She pushed a few more times, but he still didn't respond, so she pushed harder. , Lin Lang fell to the ground, and Lin Yihong was shocked. It turned out that Lin Lang was already dead...

Lin Yihong's head was buzzing, and she almost fainted on the ground. She quickly held on to the bookcase, took a deep breath, and dragged heavy steps to get her phone, but her hands kept shaking. Unable to dial it out, she bit her right hand hard with her teeth and forced it to dial 110.

After Jiang Yiming received the call, he woke up the other four members of the task force, gathered together within 4 minutes, and rushed to the crime scene...

The deceased, Lin Lang, was 25 years old and had only graduated from college three years ago. He worked at the Institute of Geology and liked traveling, drinking and exploring.Lin Yihong is Lin Lang's mother. Her husband died 10 years ago, but because she loved her well-behaved and handsome son and was afraid that he would be bullied by his stepfather if he remarried, she remained single and asked Lin Lang to change her surname to hers.Lin Yihong just retired in the first half of this year. Apart from singing and dancing, she also focuses on her son.

Two types of footprints were recovered from the scene, a Moutai bottle and a burnt mobile phone that Lin Lang held in his hand before his death.After comparison, the footprints were those of Lin Yihong and Lin Ming. Lin Yihong's footprints covered Lin Lang's footprints, indicating that no third party entered Lin Lang's study before his death.

The autopsy results showed that Lin Lang was struck to death by lightning. The solution in the stomach of the deceased contained a large amount of alcohol and a portion of acetaldehyde and formic acid, which proved that the Moutai wine contained methanol. Luo Jin tested the remaining Moutai wine and found that the wine contained 8% methanol. Lin Lang drank nearly half a kilogram of wine and only inhaled 20 ml of methanol. It was impossible to cause Lin Ming's death. At most, it could only cause some damage to his eyes. But how could there be methanol in Moutai? Woolen cloth?

Luo Jin said that there cannot be methanol in Moutai. It seems that someone deliberately mixed methanol into Moutai. Of course, it may be fake wine. Only fake wine contains methanol. Many unscrupulous fake wine makers often use small amounts of it. Methanol counterfeit wine.However, the methanol content in the wine was not fatal, ruling out the possibility of homicide.

Jiang Yiming thought that he should check the liquor store. If the shop owner sold fake liquor, then he was also responsible for Lin Lang's death. However, the bottle of Maotai liquor had Lin Lang's fingerprints on it, so there was almost no clue.

"How is it possible? Could it be that there are no fingerprints of workers at the Moutai Distillery?" Jiang Yiming didn't believe it.

"No, Moutai Distillery is a modern assembly line production, and even packaging uses machines. Their factory's sanitation work is very good. It is absolutely impossible for workers' fingerprints to be printed on it."

Their analysis is as follows: After Lin Ming drank half a catty of Maotai, he fell asleep on the table. At this time, someone called Lin Lang. Lin Lang was woken up by his mobile phone in his drunken dream. He took out his mobile phone and wanted to answer the phone. However, he was too drunk to answer the phone, so he took the phone and fell asleep again, letting the phone keep ringing and discharging, thus attracting lightning into the house, causing him to be struck by lightning and die.

Lin Yihong fainted several times due to excessive grief and was admitted to the No. 1 Civil Hospital. Jiang Yiming and Wu Jiang went to the hospital to visit her and told Lin Yihong the conclusion that Lin Lang died from a lightning strike. When they heard this conclusion, they suddenly Zi sat up from the bed and said: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, my son must have been murdered."

"We can understand your feelings. The pain of a white-haired person sending a black-haired person is extremely painful, but you must believe in science and our police, because the dead cannot lie."

"How can I believe you? My son is engaged in natural sciences. He knows that he cannot answer the phone during thunder and lightning. Why would he answer the phone? My son often warns me not to answer the phone under thunder and lightning. Tell me, such a smart child How could he be killed by lightning?"

"Lin Lang went to answer the phone in a daze because he was drunk. He didn't know it was raining and thundering outside at the time, so this was the result." "My son has a very good drinking capacity, and half a pound of Maotai cannot make him drunk. , if you insist on thinking that my son died from a lightning strike, it is a sign of your incompetence. I am going to petition until the real culprit is found!" Lin Yihong was very angry, and her whole face turned red, like a red-faced Guan Gong. It seemed that she was extremely angry. .

"Whatever you want, unless you can find evidence to prove that Lin Lang was murdered, we can't file a case." Wu Jiang was angered by her.

"You want me to find evidence? Why does the country support your police? They are so corrupt!" Lin Hong was furious. She stretched out her hand and pushed all the bottles and cans on the bedside table to the ground, causing broken glass all over the floor.Jiang Yiming quickly called the doctor and nurse and gave Lin Yihong a sedative. Lin Yihong calmed down, but she turned away and was no longer willing to talk to them. When Jiang Yiming left the ward, he saw Lin Yihong crying silently and heartbroken. His expression was stunned for a moment, as if his heart had been stabbed again.

Jiang Yiming asked Wu Jiang: "Did we overlook something? Maybe Lin Lang committed suicide."

"Impossible, Captain Jiang, you have been misled by Lin Yihong. Lin Yihong is in extreme sadness. Her thoughts, words and deeds have deviated from the normal track. Can you believe her words? We can't be too soft-hearted, as this will also affect Our normal ability to judge.”

"But, I also feel like there seems to be something wrong inside."

"what is the problem?"

"I can't tell."

"Solving crimes is not based on intuition. Aren't those sophisticated and advanced instruments no match for your intuition?"

Jiang Yiming fell silent and entered into thinking. He felt that there was boundless darkness in the background of his thinking. This darkness enveloped him deeply. He wanted to work hard to break through this darkness, but he had no ability at all and could only let his thoughts Struggling, struggling, struggling in the darkness.How he wished that a saint could lead him out of this darkness, see a glimmer of light in the horizon, and find out the truth about Lin Lang's death. Unfortunately, no one could help him except his own brain.

Jiang Yiming thought of the store that sold wine to Lin Lang, and asked Wu Jiang to drive to the tobacco and alcohol store next to Lin Lang's house, because Lin Yihong said that Lin Lang's Maotai liquor was sold to him by a store called "The Best Tobacco and Liquor Store" of.

The owner of the top-quality tobacco and alcohol store, whose surname was Chen, did not dare to neglect them and said that Lin Lang had indeed bought his Maotai liquor from him.When Jiang Yiming said the number of the bottle of Maotai that Lin Lang drank.But Boss Chen said he didn't sell it from them because he had never bought Maotai liquor with a number starting with 4.They felt that Boss Chen might be lying, and there was absolutely no way he would admit that he bought fake wine.Jiang Yiming called someone from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to check all the Maotai liquor that Boss Chen had in stock, but found no fake liquor.

Boss Chen also said: Even if I sell fake wine, I dare not sell it to Lin Lang. Lin Lang is an expert in wine tasting. As soon as the wine enters his mouth, he can instantly tell what kind of wine it is, what grade it is, what year it is, and even Which season does it leave the factory? If I sell wine to him and he reports it, can my store still be open?
Jiang Yiming thinks Boss Chen's words make sense, but who sold Lin Lang that bottle of wine?Lin Lang knew it was fake wine, so why did he still drink it?This matter is really strange. It seems that Lin Yihong's suspicion is reasonable.

Dark clouds gradually appeared in the western sky, and then there was a dull thunder, and it started to rain again. The rain fell very hard, silently hitting the reinforced concrete jungle, like a huge muffler, isolating the hustle and bustle of the city. .
