Chapter 97: Unknown Cause of Death
Gu Nankai nodded slightly to Wu Qingluan and then turned and entered the crime scene.
At this time, Shang Lu, Cao Cang, Gao Yuan and Li Meng were surrounding the corpse. Because Gu Nankai had not come in yet, Shang Lu did not take any rash actions for fear of damaging the condition of the corpse. When she saw Gu Nankai coming in, she adjusted her posture and officially entered the working state.
Only at this moment did Gu Nankai see the condition of the corpse.
There is no doubt that this is a female corpse. Like the previous two corpses, this female corpse is also naked. The focus of the corpse is on the mouth and lower body.
At this moment, the body was lying flat in a spread-eagle position. When Gu Nankai just stepped into the house and saw the body from a distance, he thought that the victim's lower body was injured by the murderer like the previous two bodies, but when he got closer, he found that it was far from being the case. He looked at the body with some surprise, and found that the lower part of the body was stuffed with lipstick used by women.
The lipstick shells were completely removed, leaving only the lipstick core inside, which was stuffed into the deceased's lower body. Gu Nankai felt a little painful just watching it. Judging from the lipstick shells , the number of lipsticks stuffed in was also shocking.
What surprised Gu Nankai even more was that the murderer did not tattoo the peony on the corpse's reproductive organs this time, but chose the dead man's mouth. The murderer used his superb skills to tattoo a peony on the dead man's closed mouth, which was exactly the same as the previous two victims. The word "sea" in the center of the flower was still better than the original. Gu Nankai looked at the corpse and looked at Shang Lu: "Have you found out the cause of death?"
Shang Lu shook his head: "There is nothing to check at the moment. There is no visible fatal injury on the body. I cannot determine the cause of death without an autopsy, but I found some lipstick residue in the mouth of the deceased. I will go back for an autopsy to find out the details."
"What about these bloodstains?" Gu Nankai pointed at the red liquid next to the corpse and frowned.
"These." Shang Lu's eyes showed some smile: "Boss, take a closer look, is this human blood?"
Gu Nankai knew what she meant when he heard it. He squatted down, dipped his gloved index finger in some blood on the ground, put it under his nose and sniffed it, then raised his eyes and looked at Shang Lu: "Chicken blood?"
"Yes!" Shang Lu replied with a smile: "The murderer deliberately put the blood here so that people outside can find the bloodstains. The deceased did not suffer any trauma. If we exclude the blood, the death of the deceased is not much different from the previous two bodies."
Just as Shang Lu said, the trace of chicken blood extended to the door in an increasingly thin trail, and the neighbor who reported the case also discovered the deceased because of this bloodstain. Gu Nankai narrowed his eyes slightly: "It seems that the murderer deliberately let people discover the deceased."
"The murderers of the first two victims have been trying to hide their identities, but when it comes to the third victim, they deliberately give us clues?" Gao Yuan asked puzzled.
Gu Nankai secretly pondered Gao Yuan's words while staring at the corpse. Shang Lu was still examining the corpse trying to find other clues.
"Based on rigor mortis and livor mortis, the victim should have died six hours ago." In the end, she did not find any stronger clues and could only tell Gu Nankai the time of their death.
"If we can't find anything, have someone take the body back. We'll look for other clues and you can do a detailed autopsy tomorrow." Gu Nankai glanced outside and found that the number of onlookers outside was increasing. They should be attracted by the residents. In order to prevent the matter from escalating and causing panic, he made this decision first.
"I think it's feasible." Shang Lu puffed out his cheeks and moved his mouth. He stood up and stretched his waist, then immediately called on his colleagues who came later to take the body out and transport it back to the serious crime team.
Cao Cang and his men quickly collected the blood from the surrounding area, and not long after the body was taken out, Wu Qingluan also walked in.
"What's the situation?" Gu Nankai asked Wu Qingluan.
Wu Qingluan shook her head helplessly: "I asked most of the residents. Although they knew this person, no one knew the name of the deceased. They all said that she came here three years ago. She was always out early and back late. We usually didn't see her. She didn't say anything when we saw her occasionally. She was cold and didn't get close to anyone. The person who reported the case, who was her neighbor, felt sorry for her being alone. Sometimes he wanted to send her some food, but he always refused coldly. According to them, this person was very arrogant."
She glanced around the room and snorted, "I think so too. Look at the food and clothing in this house. It's much better than the average family. This is an old neighborhood, and the decoration is a bit outdated. It's a bit problematic for a woman to live here."
"Hi, Teacher Wu, you are right." Gao Yuan was searching for something not far away, but everyone could hear Wu Qingluan's voice. At this time, he smiled and spoke to Wu Qingluan, raising his arm and shaking the mobile phone in his hand.
"It looks like she's a kept mistress." He walked over as he spoke. At this time, he had cracked the password of the phone through his own means. He walked closer to Wu Qingluan and the others and handed the phone to Gu Nankai: "Take a look, the deceased's information."
Gu Nankai, Wu Qingluan and others took a closer look and indeed saw that the text box of the mobile phone was full of some explicit messages, but the themes expressed were very clear.
First, the victim hopes that the other party will divorce as soon as possible.
Second, if the divorce is not carried out, the victim will interfere with the other party's life.
Third, the person of the opposite sex who had an emotional entanglement with the victim seemed to be in the education industry.
"Oh, could it be that this woman was having an affair with that man and the man's wife found out, so the wife killed her and then imitated the serial killer?" Li Meng guessed subconsciously.
"It's unlikely. The peony pattern on the victim's lips is exactly the same as that of the previous two victims." Gu Nankai said slowly with a serious face.
Li Meng looked at Gu Nankai blankly: "But Boss, why did the murderer kill another woman now? Didn't we say that the murderer is a woman? She killed the first two victims because she hated their genitals. But now this woman's death also has peonies, but no red ribbons. I really can't understand why the murderer stuffed so much lipstick into the dead woman's private parts."
After he said this, he felt a chill on his back. He shrugged and looked at Wu Qingluan fearfully, then at Shang Lu: "Women are so scary!"
Shang Lu and Wu Qingluan looked at each other, and then rolled their eyes at Li Meng at the same time.
"Although the situation is complicated, at least we have a breakthrough now. Based on the peony pattern on the deceased's body, this case can be investigated together with the previous two deaths." Gu Nankai made the final conclusion.
He looked at Gao Yuan and said, "Gao Yuan, follow the phone number that the deceased used to call to find her lover. Check it now. The rest of you check the room to confirm the identity of the deceased and look for other clues."
As soon as Gu Nankai gave the order, Gao Yuan immediately started working on the spot using the tablet. Gu Nankai alone, Wu Qingluan and Shang Lu were in a group, and Cao Cang and Li Meng were in a group and began to search for clues at the scene.
The room where the victim was located had three bedrooms and a living room. Gao Yuan was working in the living room, while the remaining three groups searched one room at a time.
Gu Nankai went to the victim's master bedroom. It seemed that this woman cared a lot about her quality of life. There were many health products of many big brands on the bedside table. Gu Nankai checked one by one and found nothing unusual.
It was easy to find the victim's bag and successfully retrieve her ID card from the wallet inside.
Sun Zihan, female, Han nationality, born in 1975.
Seeing this, Gu Nankai was secretly shocked, his eyes fell on the various health products on her bedside table. Could it be that these health products really work? When he first saw the deceased, he did not classify the deceased as someone born in the 1970s.
