You're Guilty: Conspiracy Scene 2 crime escalation

Chapter 32 The Murderer's Intentions
At [-]:[-] p.m. on the day of the crime, in the small conference room of the criminal police team, I sat with the criminal policemen involved in the case and held a case meeting on the situation they had mastered.

Feng Xinran, who was in charge of investigating the surrounding situation, said: "The deceased, Jin Xianlian, was 32 years old. She was the chief staff member of the Welfare Department of the Personnel Department of Songjiang Province. Her husband, Yu Hao, was the legal representative of a medical device company called 'Ji Shiming'. , the registered capital of the company is 200 million yuan. According to Jin Xianlian’s colleagues and friends, she was born in a poor family, and her parents were both laid-off workers from state-owned enterprises. After they got married, the Yu family used their social connections to transfer Jin Xianlian to the Welfare Department of the Personnel Department. She received a dry salary, fished for three days, and posted on the net for two days. No one cared whether she went to work or not. Yu Hao and Jin Xianlian were married for five years , has never had children, but the relationship between the husband and wife is acceptable. According to people who are familiar with them, Yu Hao loves flirting, but he has no long-term and stable lover. Jin Xianlian never pretends to men other than her husband. On the day before the incident, Yu Hao went to a schoolmate reunion at a villa more than 40 miles away from the urban area. He drank and chatted with his college classmates until after eleven o'clock at night. I didn’t go home until noon the next day, so I didn’t have time to commit the crime. In addition, we checked with Yu Hao that no property was lost at the scene of the crime, so the possibility of burglary and murder can be ruled out.”

Su Caixuan then introduced the autopsy situation: "A small amount of ether was detected in the body of the deceased. It is suspected that the deceased was stunned with ether before he was alive, and then put into an inflatable sleeping bag and tortured to death. No murder weapon was found at the crime scene. According to the analysis of the wounds of the deceased The murder weapon should be a long, thin and sharp weapon, such as knitting needles, iron rods, etc. The murderer stabbed the victim 29 times in a row during the crime, and most of the wounds were on the limbs, back and other non-fatal places. Four needles were fatal, piercing the liver, heart, spleen and stomach respectively. The deepest wound was eleven centimeters from the skin surface, and a small amount of bile and liquid food flowed into the victim's abdominal cavity. According to the degree of stiffness and blood of the corpse Judging by the degree of condensation, the deceased was murdered between three and four in the morning."

After sharing the objective investigation results of the case, Xu Tianhua took the lead in expressing his subjective analysis of the case: "This is an unprecedented crime scene, the murderer used very troublesome killing methods, it was obviously a deliberate murder, and it was carefully planned in advance. Although the motive for the murder is not clear, the possibility of vendetta and love murder is relatively high. I think there are at least three points at the crime scene worthy of in-depth investigation: One is the inflatable sleeping bag that wrapped the dead body. Starting from its source, we may find valuable clues The second is the murder method and the murder weapon of the murderer; the third is the vacuum cleaner found at the scene. I believe these three clues are intentionally left by the murderer and convey some kind of information to us."

Feng Xinran took over the words and said, "I agree with Tianhua's analysis. I would like to add that there are no signs of being pried on the door of the deceased's house. There are two possibilities. One is that the murderer and the victim are acquaintances, or even very close people. Called the door open in the middle of the night and entered the victim's house. Second, the murderer has a strong ability to unlock the door, and can open the security door quietly in a short time. There are only about 100 people with this ability in Quzhou City. We have the vast majority of the list."

Li Guanlan said: "What Feng Xinran said is an important clue. The former residence of the victim Jin Xianlian was in a high-end community with strict security measures. There is only one gate in the whole community. There is a security guard on duty in front of the gate [-] hours a day, and it is equipped with surveillance video. But We carefully checked the surveillance video on the night of the incident, and asked the security guard on duty that night to confirm that no suspicious persons had entered or exited. However, this community has an underground parking lot and is equipped with an elevator that leads directly to the residential building. Outside the parking lot There is no security guard on duty, and there is no surveillance video. The only security measure is that the elevator is automatically locked. Residents in the building have elevator cards. After entering the elevator, they need to swipe the card to go up to the target floor. to one floor. So the murderer should enter the elevator from the parking lot, take the elevator card to the door of Jin Xianlian’s house, and then open the door to enter the house. In view of these cumbersome steps, I tend to think that the murderer is someone close to Jin Xianlian, and She won her trust. Of course, there are other possibilities, such as the murderer is a resident of the building, or an expert in unlocking and elevator decoding. These possibilities are very small, but they cannot be completely ruled out. In the investigation of Jin Xianlian's private life, her relatives and friends of the same sex and opposite sex were investigated one by one, and the focus was on those who had entanglements with her."

Li Guanlan also assigned Feng Xinran to lead two police officers to investigate the sources of the sleeping bags and vacuum cleaners at the murder scene, and try to obtain some information from the merchants who sold these two items. will help a lot.Of course, Li Guanlan knew that these two items were the most common items in the market, and the possibility of getting valuable clues from the salesperson was very slim.

Although Li Guanlan was well-organized and methodical when analyzing the case and deploying the police force, there was always a cloud of suspicion in his heart.What message is the murderer's deliberate arrangement at the scene of the crime conveying?
When Li Guanlan saw the scene of Jin Xianlian's murder for the first time, a thought rose in his mind: the sleeping bag murder in Arizona, USA.This is a case he learned when he was studying at the Public Security University. A perverted murderer killed more than a dozen prostitutes in a few years, dismembered their bodies, hid them in sleeping bags, numbered them, and stored them in the basement .However, compared with the murder of Jin Xianlian, this well-known serial murder case at home and abroad has nothing in common except that the victims are all women and the bodies are stored in sleeping bags.In addition, Li Guanlan racked his brains and couldn't think of any other murders in his memory that could be related to the sleeping bag.

If it is not imitation, what is the murderer's intention?

Li Guanlan was contemplating, when Su Caixuan opened the door and walked in, saying, "How is it? This case is quite strange. I checked the information and found that the only case of using a vacuum cleaner in the crime was a secret room murder that happened in Thailand 15 years ago." In this case, when the murderer killed someone indoors, he turned on the vacuum cleaner and aimed it at the crack of the door. The strong suction made the paper seal on the outside of the door stick to the door, creating the illusion that no one was in the room. There was only one case where a sleeping bag appeared at the murder scene. A series of homicides that took place in Arizona, USA. But these two cases are too different from this case, and it is too far-fetched to insist on linking them together. I don’t think the murder of Jin Xianlian may be a copycat crime.”

Li Guanlan agreed: "I also tend to this view. We can't be limited to looking for clues from past cases. The murderer is using sleeping bags and vacuum cleaners as well as cruel killing methods to convey to us what information he may be the murderer." The motive may be the way he thinks the dead took their lives."

More than ten hours later, the front-line criminal police reported back the results of the investigation on the sleeping bag and the vacuum cleaner, which did not help the case at all.This kind of "Jingyesi" brand inflatable sleeping bag is sold in large and small shopping malls and wholesale markets in Quzhou City, and can also be bought on some shopping websites. It is basically impossible to find the murderer from the customer.The red portable vacuum cleaner at the scene of the murder is a product of Quzhou "Quanfu" household appliance company, which is sold all over the country. The retail sales in the past two years have been around 300 million units per year.

After analyzing and comparing the wounds on the corpse, Su Caixuan tended to believe that the murder weapon was a stainless steel knitting needle the thickness of a small finger. This is the thickest knitting needle that can be seen on the market at present. It is about [-] centimeters in length and there are many purchase channels.

The biggest harvest came from the autopsy of Jin Xianlian's corpse.Jin Xianlian's endometrium is very thin, which is one-half of the normal thickness, and there are traces of curettage. It can be confirmed that Jin Xianlian has had an abortion.

After Li Guanlan learned of the test result, she asked Su Caixuan not to leak the news for the time being, and tried to keep the number of insiders to a minimum.

This is an important discovery.Yu Hao is the only child in the family, but he and Jin Xianlian have had no children since they got married. If the child Jin Xianlian conceived was Yu Hao's, why did she abort it?If Jin Xianlian is pregnant with someone else's child, who is that man?Is there any connection between this incident and the murder of Jin Xianlian?

To protect the reputation of the deceased and the privacy of the living, Li Guanlan sent Feng Xinran to launch an investigation into Jin Xianlian's abortion in a low-key manner.

Through insinuating on Yu Hao, Feng Xinran learned that Jin Xianlian and Yu Hao had a total of six to seven years from acquaintance to marriage, during which Jin Xianlian never conceived Yu Hao's child.The Yu family is eager for a child, and Yu Hao's parents have gone to the temple to offer incense many times, praying for the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to bestow a child, and the Yu family's huge family business is also waiting for someone to inherit it.Jin Xianlian has no children for a day, and the status of Yu's daughter-in-law is not secure.In other words, it is almost impossible for Jin Xianlian to secretly abort after she is pregnant with Yu Hao's child.

Then, what Jin Xianlian fell off was someone else's child.Jin Xianlian and Yu Hao were virgins when they got married, and there is a pre-marital medical examination report as evidence, which is also one of the important conditions for Yu Hao to choose a wife.This child was conceived after Jin Xianlian and Yu Hao got married, that is to say, Jin Xianlian has a secret underground lover.

Jin Xianlian and her lover have done a very good job of keeping secrets.Feng Xinran interviewed Yu Hao's and Jin Xianlian's relatives and friends, but no one knew about it. Everyone said that Jin Xianlian kept her life clean, lived in secluded places, and treated men well.On the contrary, Yu Hao loves to search for flowers and willows, and often stays out at night, forming countless dewy marriages.Jin Xianlian also took a tolerant attitude towards Yu Hao's actions before she was alive. After all, she was greedy for money and married into Yu's family. Who would not want to have material benefits and also want her husband to be loyal and considerate, but she knows that she does not have such good luck, so she Resigned to fate, give up the fish and take the bear's paw.

The work of solving the case was progressing very slowly like peeling off the cocoon.This is an unusual case. The murderer left obvious physical evidence at the scene, but the criminal police were unable to find valuable clues based on it. Is the murderer setting up suspicious positions to confuse the police, or leading a cat-and-mouse game? game?The investigators were clueless.

A week after Jin Xianlian was murdered, the case fell into a stalemate.Li Guanlan had to allocate part of the police force to other new cases, and the attention to Jin Xianlian's case gradually decreased.
