Advocate for the deceased

Chapter 70 Who is next? (8)
Blood, blood everywhere.

The inside and outside of the bathtub in the not-so-spacious bathroom was covered in purple-black bloody water, which left circles of dark marks on the bathtub as it evaporated and decayed.

On the sink, many finely shattered lumps of black matter fell on top of the cutting board and the knife.

Small handfuls were scattered among the blood drops and blood pools, and a white semicircular object appeared in front of the door. Zhou Hai leaned over to pick it up, and carefully identified it.

"One side is slightly convex, and the other side is smooth to form two concave surfaces. This is the patella. It seems that this is the scene of dismemberment."

Zhou Hai's words made Chu Menghan retch, and almost vomited out.

The fat man clutched his chest, his face turned paler.

After calming down for a while, I went in with the camera to take pictures and fix it. After all, there are bloodstains and rotten minced meat everywhere. Every step forward, the sticky feeling on the soles of your feet makes all your fine hairs stand on end.

"Haizi, look here!"

Following the direction of the fat man's finger, Zhou Hai took two steps closer, and drew a heart with blood on the white tiles behind the blood-stained shower curtain.

The reason why the fat man was excited was that the tip of this heart was a blood fingerprint with clear lines on it, but Zhou Hai shook his head slightly, and the fat man was very puzzled.

"how?"

"The fingerprint that looks like a woman's index finger is not the murderer's."

When Zhou Hai said this, the fat man took a closer look and was instantly discouraged.

But when I think about it, I feel that the murderer is perverted, holding the severed hand of the deceased, and drawing a heart on the wall, it's really fucking numb and crazy to a certain level.

Zhou Hai was right, the fingerprints were very thin, but the fat man sighed and then began to take pictures to extract blood samples and number them.

Zhou Hai and Fatty stood back to back, facing the sink.

A lot of blood and residue were also sprayed on the mirror of the sink, and the tissue box on the counter was not spared.

However, there was no tissue exposed in the tissue box. Zhou Hai leaned over and looked at it. There was still some tissue in the box. He reached out and pulled out a piece. There was no blood drop on it. Does that mean the murderer used the tissue?

Unable to restrain a burst of excitement, Zhou Hai began to search around, and there seemed to be some scraps of paper in the trash can next to the toilet.

Pick up the trash can, put it on the countertop, and start to take it out to identify it one by one. There are seven or eight balls of tissue paper with blood stains, and three paper balls without blood stains, which seem to have dried light yellow water on them. stains.

"Fatty evidence bag."

The fat man glanced at Zhou Hai, pulled out a dozen evidence bags and handed them to him.

Chu Menghan probed in and watched Zhou Hai rummaging through the trash can.

"Have you found anything?"

"Pray!

The incident occurred more than a month ago, and the weather was still very hot at that time. In such a confined space without air conditioning, people would sweat profusely.

Blood was spattered on the murderer's face and body, so he naturally had to wipe it, hoping to find the murderer's DNA in the papers. "

The fat man pouted.

"Great!
You want to find the murderer's rice green liquid!

In this profession, if you bring a strange man home, you can only take the business home. "

Zhou Hai didn't speak, put away the balls of paper, stood at the door of the bathroom, looked at all the traces on the ground, and closed his eyes slightly.

It is airtight here, no mosquitos and flies enter, otherwise this room would be even more unsightly.

There was no sign of damage to the entrance door. Obviously, the murderer followed the owner into the room, and the first bloody footprints started in the master bedroom.

Therefore, the fat man's analysis just now is not wrong.

Blood drops, blood footprints, gradually extended to the bathroom, and then dilute the blood [1] footprints, gradually covered the original dark blood footprints and returned to the master bedroom, where the murderer walked back and forth several times.

What is he doing?
The traces of dragging should be pulling the deceased's ankle and dragging the deceased to the bathroom. If this is counted as one time, it is another time to hold the deceased's head.

What is the third round trip?
Could it be that the body parts are being packed and ready to be taken away?

Zhou Hai moved to the kitchen. There was a layer of dust accumulated here, and the kitchen was also very messy. Several instant noodle buckets and various takeaway bags were discarded in the trash can.

There are only a few seasonings on the cabinets and countertops, no rice noodles and vegetables, some spoiled fruits in the refrigerator, and some instant dumplings.

On the side wall of the gas stove, there are two places with friction marks. Looking at the shape, you can know that this place used to hang cutting boards and kitchen knives.

It's so secretive that it's hard to find if you're not a regular visitor.

Zhou Hai glanced at the pedestrian street not far from the window, and then walked out of the kitchen, and the fat man also completed all the information collection.

"Have you found out that Zhu Manli works in that store?"

Chu Menghan nodded.

"I just got a call. He is working as a foot-washing girl in the Korean bathhouse behind the pedestrian street."

"Looking at the scene, the murderer is a frequent visitor of Zhu Manli, so we need to investigate outside."

"Come over with me to have a look!"

Zhou Hai glanced at the fat man.

"When you return to the center for inspection, tell Sister Zeng that these papers must be carefully infiltrated and extracted.

Chu detachment find a car to send the fat man back! "

The fat man glanced at Chu Menghan with regret on his face.

"All right!
I'm going back for inspection now. "

Zhou Hai followed Chu Menghan downstairs, and just as she was about to get in the car, her cell phone rang.

"Head, we are on the easternmost side of the pedestrian street, and there is a shampoo room here.

They said they knew B dead! "

"Wait for me to arrive right away!"

Four investigators took the landlord to check Zhu Manli's photo and identity.

The landlord's face was always pale, and a homicide happened in his own house.

How to rent out in the future?

How to sell?

This house has become a haunted house, so she is very cooperative, after all, she wants to close the case as soon as possible.

*****
Ten minutes later, Chu Menghan and Zhou Hai rushed to the shampoo room.

The police officers who arrived earlier had brought the insider to a room.

Chu Menghan pointed to the portrait of the dead person B and asked.

"Don't be afraid, just ask you a few questions, do you know this person?"

"Well, her name is Liu Wen."

The girl named Wang Hong said, and handed over her mobile phone. On it was a funny photo of two girls, and it turned out that the other one was exactly the same as the person in the portrait.

"When did she disappear?"

The girl recalled a moment, flipping through the call log.

"On the second day of the November holiday, she still hadn't come at five o'clock in the afternoon. The boss asked me to contact her, but the phone didn't work."

"How old is she?"

"23."

"Do you know where her family lives?
We need to contact her family. "

Wang Hong nodded, hesitated a little, and leaned forward and said in a low voice.

"The boss has a copy of our ID card, and the police officer can ask him for it.

I heard from Xiaowen that her hometown is the eastern part of Shandong, which seems to be Cao County, but she has not been in touch with her family for many years.

Usually, she lives in the store. "

Zhou Hai stopped Chu Menghan who was about to end the questioning, and asked aloud:
"Does Liu Wen have regular customers?"

Seeing that Zhou Hai was wearing ordinary clothes, the girl hesitated a little, but Chu Menghan gave her a comforting look, and instantly stopped being entangled.

"There are a few, most of them are small bosses of surrounding shops."

"Which people?"

The girl shook her head.

"I haven't inquired about it. After all, they are all regular customers of their own. Asking too much makes people feel like they are grabbing business."

Chu Menghan nodded.

"I understand, but I still hope you can recall that Liu Wen is not the first hair-washing girl to be killed. If it is a regular customer who commits the crime, it is better to have a precaution!"

Such a sentence made the girl named Wang Hong startled, and her face turned pale. She took the pen and paper from Chu Menghan and recalled it, and wrote down several shop names and surnames crookedly on the paper.

"That's all I know. Is this a serial case?"

Zhou Hai sighed slightly.

"Yes, the serial case!

The murderer is highly targeted, and only targets women who serve as special services, such as hair-washing girls and foot-washing girls.

We don't know yet, who will be next? "

--------

[1] Diluted bloodstain: refers to the bloodstain formed after blood is mixed with other liquids.

The most common blood-thinning fluid is water, and the most common way to dilute the blood is to rinse the blood with water or a water-soaked object.

Under normal conditions, the color of blood coagulated or dried outside the body is dark red or purple. Therefore, when the blood is evenly diluted by other liquids, the diluted blood is generally light red in color;
When the dilution is not uniform, usually because the thickness of the bloodstain is thicker in the middle and thinner at the periphery, the middle color is sometimes slightly darker than the surrounding color;

When the bloodstain dries and is diluted, it often appears as a color change only around the bloodstain.
