Chapter 56 What is that?
"I extracted a small amount of spinal fluid, which confirmed that the deceased had been injected with anesthetics before his death." Bai Ling paused and continued, "In addition, the deceased's blood and gastric juice showed that the deceased had indeed received emergency treatment before his death. As for the cause of death, it was not bleeding, but bacterial infection after exposure to the outside air."
In the office, everyone fell silent as they listened to Bai Ling's report. The information was basically consistent with what Wang Zheng had obtained through empathy.
But the more consistent they are, the worse it is, because the criminal you are about to face is not an ordinary criminal, but a professional criminal master.
"How bad is the surveillance?" Gu Xia took the initiative to speak and broke the silence at the scene.
Gao Feng said angrily, "Nearly a hundred cars entered and left that night. After comparing them one by one, only one commercial vehicle was suspected. However, after comparing the background information, it was found that the commercial vehicle had a fake license plate, and the inspection signs inside the vehicle were all deliberately covered. It is impossible to start with the vehicle!"
"Then we can only start from other aspects." Wang Zheng took over the conversation, "The female victim ran away from home and lived with her boyfriend before her death. So how did she and her boyfriend know each other?"
"Chatting software." Gao Feng shook his head and said, "According to her boyfriend's testimony, it only took a week for the two of them to go from chatting to living together."
"Such a short time?" Bai Ling was a little surprised.
"A week is still a short time. Some people even get married in a week." Wang Zheng said with a smile: "Quick marriage and quick divorce are very normal in this era."
Bai Ling didn't know what she was thinking about. She suddenly blushed and asked embarrassedly, "Why did the deceased woman still..." after living together for a month?
"You haven't had sex yet? Just say it!" Gao Feng teased. Looking at Bai Ling who rolled her eyes at him, he said nonchalantly, "The deceased woman's family situation is a bit complicated. They are a Christian family. Her current parents are remarried. She lived with her mother before."
"This might be a breakthrough." Gu Xia thought, "A single-parent Christian family, when she came of age, her mother married another man, which must have violated the oath. The daughter's rebellious mentality decided to leave the family, so she was easily abducted."
As he spoke, he suddenly stopped talking, looked at the silent Wang Zheng thoughtfully and asked, "What did you think of?"
"Ah?" Wang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and said, "I was thinking, maybe the word abduction is not quite right, could it be trust? Because of trust, she chose to go with someone?"
"Could it be the teacher?" Gao Feng rarely followed the two people's train of thought, and said excitedly: "Wasn't the previous dismemberment case also done by the teacher?"
"Not necessarily." Wang Zheng denied Gao Feng's idea and analyzed calmly: "First of all, she left home because of distrust, which means that she no longer trusts anyone around her. How could she leave easily with someone else? And from her boyfriend's statement, the two of them should have communicated, and her boyfriend respected her, so he didn't touch her."
"Who else can take her away?" Gao Feng spread his hands and said, "It's impossible that she was knocked unconscious and stuck in traffic, right?"
"Unlikely." Wang Zheng shook his head again. "The murderer took great pains to preserve the integrity of the skin. He would never allow the victim to have even a scratch. Any scratch on the skin would be an insult to his craftsmanship."
"When you mention that, I seem to remember a case." Gao Feng quickly sorted out his thoughts and recalled: "It was a burglary case. The murderer observed the victim for a whole month. All the victim's trips were recorded by him. There are also photos of the victim appearing in various occasions!"
"That's not impossible." Gu Xia suddenly said, "If the murderer contacts the victim in some way , dispels the victim's suspicion, and asks the victim for help based on some facts known by the victim, then the victim is likely to be fooled!"
"Liar!" Some details suddenly flashed through Wang Zheng's mind, but he suddenly became dispirited.
Gao Feng looked at Wang Zheng and said in confusion: "If he is a liar, it makes sense. Is there any problem?"
"It's a big problem." Wang Zheng said, "First of all, judging from the corpse, he has extensive surgical experience, which proves that he is a surgeon. But if he is a surgeon, he can't be a liar, unless he has an assistant who helps him trick the victim into the skinning scene!"
"Why does it sound like an industrial chain to me?" Gao Feng looked at the puzzled eyes of the crowd and quickly explained, "Look, there are scammers responsible for approaching the victims, surgeons responsible for skinning, and drivers responsible for transporting and abandoning. If this is not skinning, then it must be an organization that sells organs!"
"Trafficking?" Wang Zheng was stunned, then suddenly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the murderer this time is a little different. These human skins may have been made into any kind of furniture and kept in their own homes."
"So perverted!" Gao Feng got goose bumps all over his body after hearing this. He still didn't dare to face the dead who were killed in such a strange way. It was hard to imagine how the murderer could make the dead into furniture and still live there.
"Let's go to the house rented by the deceased and ask the landlord to see if there is any breakthrough." Gu Xia said.
This was not the first time that the task force came to the suburbs. Gao Feng followed the location on the navigation and arrived at the two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment where the deceased lived before his death in less than an hour.
In fact, the deceased and her boyfriend were not the only ones living in the house. A couple lived in the master bedroom, and they happened to be the landlords.
"You ask them about the situation, we'll go take a look in the room." Gu Xia instructed Gao Feng, and immediately took Wang Zheng and others to the side bedroom.
The room was not big, and could only accommodate a bed, a wardrobe, and a small table that served as a dressing table. But even so, it was still obvious that both of them loved cleanliness. Not only was there no dust left, but the sheets and quilts were also neatly laid out.
"The deceased should have some mysophobia. Her mental state is better than expected, and she has no suicidal tendencies." After checking the dressing table, Huamei took the deceased's comb and said, "She should be in a relatively relaxed state after coming here, but she is very self-disciplined. All her cosmetics are neatly arranged by size, and even her lipsticks are arranged by color number?"
"What does this mean?" Wang Zheng asked puzzledly when he heard the surprise in Huamei's tone.
"This means that she has obsessive-compulsive disorder, or perhaps some kind of unresolved problem." Huamei was silent for a while before saying, "A woman who is relatively relaxed will usually keep her life in good order, but not everything. Sometimes, she wouldn't care that much about things she just uses, but she is particularly concerned about these details, which is a bit strange."
"She is distracting herself!" Bai Ling suddenly said, "Sometimes when I am unhappy about something, I will find something to distract myself, but I usually just rewrite a new file of the deceased in a standardized manner."
"It's the parents." Wang Zheng took out a notebook with a cartoon character on the cover from somewhere and said, "This notebook was recorded a month ago, which was the day after the deceased's parents reported the case. I read the first page and it was full of complaints about the parents."
"No wonder." Gu Xia said, "A girl has never been able to adapt to life after leaving her home. Besides, the two of them haven't gotten married yet. If this gets out, it won't sound good."
"That's right." Wang Zheng nodded and handed the notebook to Bai Ling first. But at this moment he suddenly looked above the crack in the door and said in surprise: "What is that?"
Everyone was stunned and turned their heads at the same time. This time they all saw that what was placed on the door was actually a fixed pinhole camera!
