Serious Case Tracking

Chapter 39
In the middle of the night, the detailed autopsy report was handed over to Meng Shaohui.After DNA comparison, it has been confirmed that the deceased is Yang Ling. The time of death was due to the temperature, which increased by one hour, about 10 hours, that is, between 22:23 and 4:5 the night before. The time of being moved to the morgue was between 3 and 4 hours after death, that is, between [-] and [-] in the morning.The wound on the back of the deceased's head was caused by a hard object such as a hammer, but it was not the cause of death.The real cause of death was that the aorta in the neck was cut off with a sharp instrument, and he lost blood and died. At the same time, some fibrous tissue was found in the mouth of the deceased, which should be stuffed with towels or other objects before death.There were four stab wounds on the deceased's body, but none of them were fatal.

The scars on the face and lower body of the deceased were all caused by sharp weapons such as daggers after death, and there were traces of repeated cutting. A large amount of reddish-brown substances were found in the wounds, which were confirmed to be iron oxide, which should be used by the murderer. It can be seen that the murder weapon used by the murderer should be a blunt and rusty dagger.The deceased did not find any traces of sexual assault.

As for the physical evidence found at the scene, no fingerprints were found on the cross used to support the corpse, and the red letters written on the floor were made of ordinary red paint, and some fibrous tissues were found in the paint, which should belong to linen gloves after analysis. and the like.

"Have you contacted Yang Ling's family?" Meng Shaohui asked.

"Yang Ling's parents are doing business in other places. We have contacted them and they are rushing back."

"Everyone has read the autopsy report and physical evidence inspection report, let's talk about your own views!" Meng Shaohui closed the two reports, leaned on the edge of the table and said to the investigators.

"Obviously, the nature of this case is a vendetta. There must be a deep hatred between the murderer and the deceased, otherwise he would not have killed someone and destroyed the body like that."

"That's right, and the money, cards, and mobile phone are all in the wallet that the deceased carried with him. It is obvious that the murderer didn't go after the property at all."

"However, the possibility of love killing is not ruled out! Because the deceased's private life is relatively complicated, is it possible that the murderer killed the deceased for emotional reasons, and then destroyed the body, deliberately pretending to be a vendetta?"

"If the scene was deliberately used by the murderer to mislead us in the investigation, then it would have been too complicated, with a cross and writing written in red paint, and the deceased was not removed until 4 to 5 hours after death. Going to the school auditorium, if it is a love killing, there is no need to make it so complicated, wouldn't it be more convenient to just throw the body away?"

The investigators expressed their opinions and carefully analyzed the case through the clues they have grasped at this stage.

"Let me tell you my opinion!" Meng Shaohui got up and walked to the whiteboard, and wrote Yang Ling's name first, "First of all, judging from the murderer's method of attack, it can be basically determined that this is a vendetta. Judging from the fact that the four scars were caused before death, it is very likely that the murderer imprisoned the deceased for a period of time, and physically injured the deceased, and also extracted a large amount of rust from the wounds of the deceased. Obviously, the murderer used The murder weapon was not sharp, and it was probably done deliberately to torture the deceased. As for the reason why the murderer did not kill the deceased directly, but imprisoned him first, tortured and then killed, it is not yet clear. Another point is, The murderer moved the body to the school auditorium and arranged the scene deliberately, it is obvious that the murderer's crime process was carefully planned."

"But why did the murderer make such a fuss? Isn't it easier to just kill the person and throw the body somewhere else?" the investigator wondered.

"The crux of the problem is here. It's not that the murderer doesn't want to throw the body elsewhere, but because it doesn't make any sense to the murderer. The murderer deliberately wrote the words 'devil atones with death' with red paint on the stage. A few words, and then put the corpse into a prayer position and fix the corpse with a cross, there must be some meaning in it, and this meaning is also the motive of the murderer."

"Judging from the meaning of those words, the posture of the corpse is not meant to pray, but more like begging for God's forgiveness."

"It's not God, but someone's forgiveness." Meng Shaohui said.

"Begging someone's forgiveness on stage? Who would that be?"

"For the time being, I'm not sure, but judging from the current situation, I guess it may be Du Yuhan, because Du Yuhan committed suicide on that stage." Meng Shaohui wrote "Du Yuhan" on the whiteboard. .

"No way! Captain Meng, your guess is really too bold. Du Yuhan committed suicide! It's not Yang Ling who killed him. The two cases should have nothing to do with each other!"

"But what if Du Yuhan's suicide was caused by Yang Ling? You know, it was impossible for Yang Ling to play the heroine in this play. It was because Du Yuhan died that Yang Ling replaced her. The teacher has learned that in the drama troupe, Du Yuhan is the absolute heroine, and if she hadn't died, it would be impossible for Yang Ling to take her place in the drama troupe."

"In order to become the heroine, Yang Ling used some method to make Du Yuhan commit suicide? And someone close to Du Yuhan found out about this, so he avenged Du Yuhan and killed Yang Ling?"

"Captain Meng, isn't your assumption a bit too bold?"

"Yeah! The fact that Yang Ling asked Du Yuhan to commit suicide is unbelievable. No matter how capable Yang Ling is, she can't control Du Yuhan's thoughts, right? If Du Yuhan doesn't want to die, even if Yang Ling has a big It's impossible for her to commit suicide by herself."

"What you said is not wrong, but my bold assumption is not unfounded." Meng Shaohui continued to write the word "reporter" on the whiteboard. A reporter exposed the fact that the play they performed was created by Du Yuhan, and it was also the reporter who raised the opinion that Yang Ling killed Du Yuhan by some despicable means, and then Yang Ling was killed that night, and The murderer also placed her body in a penitent posture on the stage of the auditorium, which happened to be the place where Du Yuhan committed suicide. These points are combined together. If only a coincidence is used to explain it, I think It feels a little too far-fetched."

Hearing this, the investigators all nodded, expressing their agreement with Meng Shaohui's analysis.

"Captain Meng, according to your analysis, the possibility that the murderer is a student in the school is the greatest. Otherwise, it is impossible to kill someone easily and then move the body into the school auditorium."

"That's right, because according to the appraisal conclusion given by the forensic doctor, the time to move the corpse is between 3:4 and [-]:[-] in the morning, and the school still has security patrols, if the murderer wants to easily move a corpse from outside the school It is not an easy task to enter the school without being discovered, but it is different for the students in the school. They can easily grasp the time of the security patrol, thereby avoiding the security guards and moving the corpse into the school. Auditorium." Meng Shaohui analyzed.

"The security guard on duty last night was called Chen Hui. We have already questioned him. He said that he patrolled every hour, but he didn't find anything suspicious."

"What about Yang Ling's boyfriend Wang Zhi? Isn't he suspicious? He may be the last person to see Yang Ling last night, and he may also learn something about the school through Yang Ling .”

"Of course it can't be ruled out. Du Yuhan's clue is just a hypothesis for the time being and needs to be investigated, but we can't let go of any other suspicious points." Meng Shaohui said, "Our next investigation will start from several aspects. The details of Du Yuhan's suicide must be confirmed. Further in-depth investigations are required, including all her relatives and friends before her death, especially where and what they were doing at the time of the crime. Of course, the key point is to investigate Du Yuhan's past I don’t have a boyfriend or have a better relationship with someone; the second is the reporter who went to the school to interview the reporter who revealed the truth yesterday, find this person, and find out why he exposed those things on the occasion yesterday; the third is Yang Ling’s boyfriend Wang Zhi, from the time point of view, he is very likely to be the last person to see Yang Ling, what happened between them must be found out, and Yang Ling's mobile phone call records must not be missed, the focus of investigation All calls made to her mobile phone on that day and before and after the incident."

After Meng Shaohui arranged the work, the investigators did not dare to delay for a moment, and quickly launched an investigation on all the clues they had at this stage, and the first person who was brought back to the police station to cooperate with the investigation was naturally Yang Ling's boyfriend Wang Zhi.

Sitting in the interrogation room, Wang Zhi looked very nervous, sitting with his head bowed, and kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. It was hard to imagine that such a person would be the general manager of a real estate company that had been in business for a long time.

"Is it very hot? Do you need me to turn on the air conditioner?" Meng Shaohui asked politely after entering the interrogation room.

"No, no need." After Wang Zhi glanced at Meng Shaohui, he quickly lowered his head.

"Are you nervous?"

"No, not nervous."

"Do you know why you were brought to the police station?"

"I-I don't know."

"Do you know Yang Ling?"

"No, I don't know."

"Don't know? Take a closer look."

Meng Shaohui picked up a photo from the table, but Wang Zhi just glanced at it quickly, then shook his head, then lowered his head again.

"Raise your head up for me." Meng Shaohui slapped the table with a slap, "Do you think you can just say no to anything? You don't even look up to see where this is."

"I, I know." Wang Zhi was taken aback by Meng Shaohui's aura, and hurriedly changed his words.

"what relationship?"

"Ordinary friends, friends." Wang Zhi said very confidently.

"Wang Zhi, it seems that you really don't want to cooperate with our investigation, right? You are a married man who gives 5 yuan to a female student at school every month. What kind of ordinary friend is this?" Meng Shaohui said angrily.

"I..." Wang Zhi was at a loss for words for a moment.

"If you really don't want to talk about it, then we can only find out about the situation from your wife."

"Don't, don't, don't, don't! I'm begging you, I said, can't I say it?" Wang Zhi was so anxious that he almost didn't cry. The glamorous coat of the general manager of the company is actually a vain name. He was originally a salesman of the company. It was all because of his handsome appearance that he attracted the daughter of the chairman of the company and was recruited as the son-in-law. everything.It is said that everything he has is given by his father-in-law, once the scandal of his having a lover outside is exposed, I believe that everything he has now will be wiped out.

"It seems that you are very afraid of your wife!" Meng Shaohui said in a slightly mocking tone.

"I'm afraid of her father! To be honest, if it wasn't because her father is the chairman of the company, how could I have fallen in love with her, who is so ordinary that she can't be more ordinary, and she doesn't even have any femininity at all? She The whole thing is a housewife, I really don't feel anything about her, I really don't understand why a rich daughter like her is like this, except for some necessary entertainment, she never dresses up, and does all the housework. Do it myself, if it wasn't for her father, I wouldn't be facing such a yellow-faced woman all day long. So I beg you all not to spread this matter, once her father finds out, I will really be finished." Wang Zhiai Seek Tao.

"If you are telling the truth, we don't need to ask your wife for confirmation, but if you lie, you should know the consequences." Meng Shaohui was very speechless at Wang Zhi's attitude of eating soft food, But after all, this is a matter of personal character. He is only concerned about Yang Ling's murder, so he doesn't blame Wang Zhi.

"I must tell the truth, I must tell the truth." Wang Zhi hurriedly said, "I saw an advertisement on a forum called website, the content was to introduce female college students to be friends. Prostitution. According to the contact number listed in the ad, I got in touch with a man named Awen, and then he sent me some pictures of beauties for me to choose from, and he assured me that they were all female college students , He said that he was only in charge of introductions, and got some introduction fees from it, as for the matter after meeting, he didn’t care about it, in fact, after meeting, the thing after meeting was to go to bed, and after that, if he felt good, he would take care of the other party.”

"What's Awen's full name?"

"I don't know about that. He provides the photos every time. After I see them, he will call me and tell me where to open a room and wait for someone. After that, he will bring them, and I will I met him a few times, and I didn't say more than ten words, especially after I took care of Yang Ling, I basically had no contact with him."

"Then do you have his contact information?"

"Yes, there is, but he is very cautious and never lets me contact him. He always contacts me on his own initiative, and he often changes his mobile phone number. I don't know how to find him. Officer, yes Did something happen to Yang Ling?"

"Yang Ling is dead and murdered."

"What! Dead? Murder?" Wang Zhi jumped up from his chair in shock, and was pushed back by the police officer, "How, how is it possible? I, I saw her last night, and she is fine Yes, how, how is it possible?"

"When did you see her last night?"

"I talked with her on the phone yesterday afternoon, because I knew she had won the competition, so I asked her to meet at the hotel where we often date in the evening, and celebrate for her by the way, she and I talked to the people in the troupe to celebrate at night, and they will come later , She didn’t come until it was almost ten o’clock.”

"She won the award because you bribed the judges behind the scenes, right?"

"Yes, yes." Wang Zhi nodded awkwardly, "I did it to make her happy."

"What about after you met? Have you been with her all this time?"

"No, no, not long after she arrived, she received a call. After she hung up the phone, her face changed, and then she said that she couldn't accompany me at night, and left in a hurry."

"Do you know the content of the call?"

"I don't know. After she answered the phone, it seemed that the other party was talking. I heard her asking 'Who are you', and then the voice fell silent."

"Then where did you go after Yang Ling left?"

"Because my wife and I said that we had a temporary business trip, Yang Ling didn't dare to go home after leaving, so she took a sauna in the hotel and slept there until dawn. The waiters there can testify for me, yes Really, I really didn't kill anyone, comrade policeman, you must believe me!" Wang Zhi begged bitterly.

"Okay, we will go to the hotel to check." Meng Shaohui said, and then asked the police to take Wang Zhi out of the interrogation room, and asked him to make a puzzle of Awen and provide Awen's contact information.

Through the hotel's understanding, Wang Zhi's confession has been confirmed, and Meng Shaohui also believes that what Wang Zhi said is true. He and Yang Ling are just lovers, and there is no reason to kill Yang Ling.If he really killed Yang Ling, it would be impossible to take the trouble to move Yang Ling's body back to the school, but it should be thrown in a farther place so that no one will find it.

At the same time, Meng Shaohui also asked the investigators to investigate the man named Awen mentioned in Wang Zhi's confession. Yang Ling contacted Wang Zhi through this man, so it is necessary to find out which men Yang Ling has had sex with before. In the relationship, if anyone among them killed Yang Ling for some reason, he had to find out through this man.
