Chapter 11 Where's Dad? (4)
At 9 o'clock in the evening, in the meeting room of the city hall, there was a case analysis meeting for the murder of Li Bingxiong.

Xu Xinger, chief of the forensic department, sat frowned and looked at the autopsy report in his hand, as if he wanted to see through the paper.

Wu Cuo said: "Let me talk about the visits to the surrounding area first. The social relationship of the deceased is very simple. After his wife passed away, he did odd jobs and picked up waste products. The neighbors around him had a good impression of him, and they all felt that he was alone. It is not easy to be a stepdaughter. Except for the recent stalemate with the developer due to demolition compensation, there is no one who can be called an enemy. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the developer. I have read news reports that some unscrupulous developers Can do anything."

Yan Ruyu waved his hand, "It's not necessary, there are several nail houses in that area, and the developer doesn't need to spend so much time targeting Li Bingxiong."

Wu made a mistake on his notebook, which meant that the developer's clue was invalidated, and continued: "An eyewitness saw the suspect run into Unit 4 where the deceased's home was located before 2:[-] a.m., and then ran out again not long after. According to witnesses, the suspect was wearing dark clothes that night."

"It's no coincidence that Li Mei was also dressed in black that night!" Yan Ruyu excitedly said.

After finishing speaking, Yan Ruyu pushed a laptop in front of Wu Cuo. The surveillance video copied from the Internet cafe was playing on the laptop. In the video, Li Mei was indeed dressed in black.

"So you suspect Li Mei?"

"I don't suspect anyone, it's just that there are clues pointing to her now."

"What clue?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head, "The most critical part is still missing. There is a question I have never thought about clearly: How could Li Bingxiong die in the kitchen in the middle of the night? Even if someone wanted to kill him, the most likely place for him to die should be the bedroom." Yes, but when we went to the scene, the quilt on the bed in the bedroom was folded, which doesn't make sense...Let's talk about what you know first."

Wu Cuo continued: "Today's investigation of the scene made a discovery, which is also a suspicious point."

The projector projected the photos taken at the scene, the cramped kitchen, a large pool of dark red blood on the kitchen floor, a criminal police got up and turned off the lights in the meeting room, the blood became more and more vivid.

"The deceased was stabbed dozens of times one after another, but there is almost no splattered blood in the kitchen, which is unreasonable."

Xu Xinger finally said: "Perhaps the autopsy results can explain this problem.

There were wounds on the back of the deceased's brain that were repeatedly struck with a blunt instrument. These wounds were not fatal, but they might cause fainting. From this, it can be inferred that the murderer was weak and might be a woman.

Based on the bloodstains on the scene, the murderer first beat the deceased on the head until he fainted, and then stabbed him 24 times in the chest and abdomen. Comparing the knife found on the ground with the wound of the deceased, it can be determined that the knife is the murder weapon. There are no fingerprints on the authenticating knife.

These are not the point, the point is..."

Xu Xing'er's eyes swept over, and briefly intersected with Yan Ruyu and Wu Cuo, "The deceased did not die from 24 stab wounds on the chest and abdomen."

"what?"

In the conference room, everyone whispered to each other briefly.

Xu Xing'er continued: "Examination of the internal organs and wounds on the surface of the chest and abdomen of the corpse, except for the 6 wounds located in the liver, heart, and lungs that have weak life reactions, the rest of the wounds have no life reactions... That is to say, the wounds that were When he was stabbed 24 times, Li Bingxiong should have... just died."

"You mean...he died first, and then he was stabbed 24 times?" Wu Cuo's tone was full of surprise, but Yan Ruyu's eyes lit up, and he lit a cigarette.

"That's right, that makes things strange. The 24 stab wounds that may have caused death were left after the deceased's death. So what caused his death?
In the end, I found out that there was still a wound on the deceased, and only this wound could cause him to lose too much blood, and this is the only possibility..."

While Xu Xinger was speaking, a photo of the deceased's right arm was projected. There was a 13 cm long wound on the inside of the forearm. The wound was very deep. It could be seen that the vein in the deceased's right arm had been severed.

"This wound has obvious life reflections and was left during his lifetime.

Let’s go straight to the results of the autopsy: the murderer knocked the deceased unconscious first, then cut the veins of the deceased, causing the deceased to lose too much blood and fall into shock, and then stabbed the deceased 24 times when he was about to die... This process is really... a bit It’s superfluous, in fact, you can choose between cutting the vein and stabbing the knife, I don’t understand why the murderer did this, maybe he wanted to ensure that Li Bingxiong would die...”

The conference room fell into a brief silence.

Yan Ruyu lit a second cigarette, "Can you determine the time of death?"

"2am to 5am."

"Maybe this is what the murderer wants, to cover up the real time of committing the crime." Yan Ruyu said.

"what?"

Everyone looked at Yan Ruyu in unison, Yan Ruyu also seemed very excited.

"Covering up the real time of committing the crime, the murderer—that is, Li Mei, has an almost perfect alibi. Li Mei's crime process is as follows:

Before 9:30 in the evening, Li Bingxiong was knocked unconscious while he was not paying attention, and then cut a wound on Li Bingxiong's right arm, causing Li Bingxiong to lose blood and go into shock, losing the ability to resist and save himself.

Then Li Mei went to work as if nothing had happened, leaving Li Bingxiong to die slowly at home.

At 2:35 in the morning, Li Mei left from the window of the bathroom in the Internet cafe—the window that had not been opened for many years was tampered with in advance, and there are photos, you can take a look later—After leaving the Internet cafe, Li Mei took a shortcut go home.

Time was too tight, and she had no time to confirm whether Li Bingxiong was dead. Li Mei stabbed Li Bingxiong 24 times.

In this way, it is difficult for us to find that the real time of the incident was actually before 9:30, and at the time of death estimated by the forensic doctor, Li Mei had an almost perfect alibi. "

As soon as Yan Ruyu’s voice fell, the criminal police who went to the Internet cafe with him to investigate added: “Through field experiments, I found a shortcut and ran with all my strength along this shortcut. I can reach the deceased’s home from the Internet cafe within 6 minutes. It's a girl, even if it takes her 7 minutes, it takes 14 minutes to go back and forth, and she leaves the Internet cafe's surveillance for a total of 16 minutes. Although the time is tight, it is still too late to kill a person who has no ability to resist.

By the way, this shortcut needs to climb over the courtyard wall of the community, everyone pay attention to this photo. "

The projection first showed a photo of a fence somewhere in the community. There were a lot of sharp glass shards standing on the top of the wall, but there was a section in the middle where the glass shards were seriously damaged, and there was a very dilapidated simple wooden ladder.

"Li Mei climbed over the wall and entered the community from here. When she got home, she didn't waste any time. She stabbed Li Bingxiong 24 times and left quickly."

Yan Ruyu emphasized: "This time point is very good, because her crime time is too short, even if we found that she had left the surveillance of the Internet cafe for 16 minutes, it still cannot prove that a little girl can commit crimes in just 1 or 2 minutes. Killed a grown man. If Lee Byung-woong hadn't died before she did it, it would have been really difficult to solve the case."

Yan Ruyu's description sounded too inconceivable at first, but when you think about it carefully, the logic is rigorous and interlocking. Everyone was immersed in this analysis for a while, not knowing how to react.

Wu Cuo was the first to break the silence and said, "But what's her motive?"

"Because of hate."

"Hate? Why?"

"I don't know. All I know is that the Internet cafe where Li Mei works is so close to her home, but she chooses to live in a dormitory instead of going home. Also, during the two years she has worked, she has never mentioned her stepfather to her colleagues, or even her colleagues. Didn't know her home was so close.

All of this is abnormal, although the specific reason is not known, but these behaviors reveal Li Mei's dislike for Li Bingxiong. "

"But we have no evidence." Wu Cuo said again.

"Search Li Mei's residence, maybe we can find clues. Do you remember that in the surveillance video of the Internet cafe, Li Mei was dressed in black. She hurried home at noon the next day, but changed into a gray down jacket.

Changing clothes, maybe because the black shirt was stained with blood.After all, stabbing Li Bingxiong 24 times in a small blood-stained kitchen, there is no guarantee that she will not get a little blood on her body-this also explains why she wears all black, because black clothes will not stick to blood. It was too obvious that she had to finish the night shift smoothly and not be noticed by others. "

Wu Cuo no longer hesitated, and immediately assigned the task: "Old Chu and Xiao Liu will go to guard the suspect tonight to ensure that the suspect does not escape. I will bring the arrest warrant there tomorrow morning. Everyone else will have a good rest tonight. Follow me tomorrow to search the suspect's dormitory."

"Yes!"

Just when everyone felt that the case was about to be closed and relaxed a little, an old saying came true: the plan cannot keep up with the change.

　In my free time today, I will write a little poem and post it for your enjoyment:

　　"Prickly Pear"

　　you are in a pot,
　　flowerpot on the windowsill,

　　Under the window sill is a 55-degree heater.

　　There are a dozen pots of plants in the house,

　　or twenty pots,
　　Only you are so close to the heating.

　　I only hope that the heating is hot,

　　When you feel homesick,
　　Occasionally remember the desert in my hometown.
