Starting from you are my glory

The police car roared towards the scene of the incident. In the car, Xiao Ming was briefly reporting the situation to Lu Xingzhi.

"The body was found at a construction site."

"According to the report, the deceased was a young woman who was basically naked when she was found. Police officers from the nearby police station have conducted preliminary surveys and found no traces of people or vehicles."

"Where's Lao Lu?"

There is too little known information now to form an effective judgment in my mind. Based on the information Xiao Ming said, love killing, vendetta or impulsive killing are all possible. Even the killer is still observing near the scene, so it is not unheard of.

"Follow us!" Xiao Ming pointed to the police cars following behind, "It's about the front and rear feet."

There has been no homicide in Nandu City for several years.

Lu Xingzhi closed his eyes and began to simulate the possible follow-up of this sudden case in his mind, combined with previous cases.

Xiao Ming shut his mouth knowingly and turned his attention to the green belt outside the window that was retreating rapidly as the speed of the car continued to increase.

"Hey, I heard that that woman even had her clothes taken off!"

"Isn't it? From what I see, it's probably a murder of love!"

"I think so, otherwise no normal person would come here in this remote place!"

"That's right! There's nothing good about you men!"

"But pull it down. Although the person who died is a woman, the murderer is not necessarily a man!"

As soon as Lu Xingzhi got out of the car, he saw a crowd of onlookers outside the cordon. All kinds of speculations, curses and insults came straight into his mind, almost breaking his originally highly concentrated attention.

"Scatter, scatter!"

Xiao Ming rushed up in a few steps, and led the police who came to the scene to guide the onlookers. When the crowd dispersed, Lu Xingzhi nodded towards Xiao Ming, and took Lao Lu, who was already dressed neatly, to the side. The waist entered behind the cordon.

"Have you found anything?"

This is a young girl with long hair hanging down her waist, a well-proportioned figure, and fair skin which is a plus. She is lying half-recumbent in a thick cement culvert, with only a few pieces of coarse cloth covering her important parts. At first glance, she has changed from the original torn from his clothes.

The overall shape and style are very tempting, if this is not a dead man.

He looked at Lu Xingzhi with wide, protruding eyes lifelessly, as if telling his resentment before his death. A dark mark on his neck was more obvious compared to his fair skin.

"The initial verdict is death from suffocation."

"The time of death was between eight and ten o'clock last night."

Lao Lu pressed his hands wearing medical gloves on the deceased's head and groped around.

"There are traces of being hit with a heavy object on the back of the head. He should have been strangled after being knocked unconscious."

Lao Lu stopped talking, his eyes flashed with an indescribable light, and he met Lu Xingzhi's eyes. Then the two of them seemed to have touched some switch. They bent down at the same time, widened their eyes, and began to look for something.

"What's going on here?"

After the people were evacuated from the periphery, Xiao Ming, who had just arrived at the scene, looked at the two people with their buttocks in the air and facing the earth, and was confused for a moment.

"What are you looking for?"

No one answered him because both men were looking for an answer, an answer that would falsify or prove.

"Found it." Lao Lu took out something from behind the corpse, and the tone of his voice reached Xiao Ming's ears, giving him an indescribable feeling.

A bit like the joy of finding evidence, but mixed with a lot of confusion and some slight panic?

Xiao Ming shook his head, maybe he heard wrongly.

Lao Lu has been engaged in the field of forensic medicine for almost a lifetime. He said that there are almost hundreds of corpses that have passed through his hands. He often stays up late at night to perform autopsies. What can scare him in broad daylight?

Lu Xingzhi stared straight at the thing in Lao Lu's hand. It was a dark green pencil. After Lao Lu adjusted the angle, he could clearly see the two marks at the end of the pen.

"HB!"

"This is impossible!" Lu Xingzhi shook his head and denied firmly: "Zhang Sicheng is dead."

"I was waiting outside on the day of the shooting!"

"The serial murder case 13 years ago was solved two years ago!"

"Lao Lu! You know!"

Lu Xingzhi's tone became higher and higher as he went on, as if he was criticizing something or explaining something.

"I know, I know." Lao Lu carefully put the pencil into the collection bag, "I was the one who did the test two years ago."

"I can tell you with certainty that Zhang Sicheng is the murderer, and he is already dead."

"His son Wu Jia took the ashes, and Lao Wei accompanied him to bury them."

"They all turned into ashes. It will definitely not be the murderer this time."

Lao Lu smiled, probably wanting to ease Lu Xingzhi's mood, "I am a party member and a staunch materialist. I still know the law that prohibits becoming a spermist after the founding of the People's Republic of China."

"Hey, you should also read online articles!" When Xiao Ming heard what Lao Lu said, he immediately showed the expression of a fellow-traveler, "I remembered."

"Pencils, HB, strangled women and deliberately staged poses!"

Xiao Ming slapped his head suddenly, "Isn't this the same as the serial murder case 13 years ago?!"

"But hasn't the murderer Zhang Sicheng been shot!!!"

"Can you please stop being so surprised?" Lao Lu frowned at Xiao Ming, "How long do you think Xiao Ming has been doing this?"

"Why aren't you calm at all?!"

"So it's not that the murderer is resurrected." Xiao Ming still wanted to have a few words with Lao Lu, but Lu Xingzhi, who was thinking on the side, spoke.

"Copycat crime!"

"But the murderer who imitated the crime is most likely an insider of the details of the case or someone who knew the murderer back then!"

"There was a copycat crime 13 years ago, but the most critical details were ignored, the model of the pencil. The one left at the scene was 2B, not HB."

"But this time it's HB!" Lao Lu shook the bag in his hand, "When you disclosed the case, did you not leak this key information?"

"No." Lu Xingzhi shook his head firmly and said, "I didn't even tell anyone about the existence of the pencil."

"So this murderer is either what you said."

"Either I don't know where I found the newspaper from 13 years ago, and after seeing the reports from that year, I accidentally created a copycat case." Lao Lu handed the pencil to the young apprentice beside him, "I will scan the scene again , I’ll start doing the appraisal after I get back.”

"I'll confirm the identity information of the deceased first." Division of work and cooperation, go hand in hand.

After confirming the direction, Lu Xingzhi immediately took Xiao Ming back to the bureau. After assigning the task, he began to conduct extensive visits and investigations centered on the place where the deceased died.

There were no car prints at the crime scene, indicating that the body was not killed and dumped at the construction site.

After all, it had only been more than ten hours since the deceased's death. It was impossible to cover up the traces of the ruts perfectly, so he would have arrived at the crime scene through other means and killed the deceased at the scene of the crime.

How did the murderer and the deceased arrive at the scene?

The environment at the construction site is so bad, there must be special reasons for the victims to go there voluntarily. . .

Lu Xingzhi was thinking freely in his office. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. When he looked up, it was Huo Ju.

Compared with two years ago, Huo Ju is older and has reached his age. He is expected to retire at the end of this year.

"I heard that there was a copycat case?!"

"Yes." Lu Xingzhi took the photos and other materials out of the document bag and spread them out on the table. "The victims were all women. Their bodies were placed in artistic poses. They were also strangled after being injured on the head. The scene All remain.”

Lu Xingzhi picked up the photo of the pencil and handed it to Director Huo.

"HB's pencil."

"Zhang Sicheng must be the real culprit in the murder case 13 years ago." Director Huo frowned and analyzed while walking in Lu Xingzhi's office.

"We have also never released the details of the murder scene."

"Where are the two murderers of the copycat case?!"

Huo Ju suddenly turned around and stared at Lu Xingzhi.

"Those two were death sentences back then." Lu Xingzhi clearly remembers the murders that occurred in the past 13 years and the results of the murderers. What impact can the two people who died back then have on today?

"There was such a long time between imprisonment and sentencing, and from sentencing to execution. Who can guarantee that they did not tell others the details of the crime?"

"Or someone else is snooping on them in prison!"

"In their imitation crime back then, except for the model of the pencil, if Zhang Sicheng hadn't committed the crime again, the imitation case might have become a real case!"

"I will immediately check everyone who had contact with them after they were imprisoned!"

After Huo Bureau's advice, Lu Xingzhi immediately understood the possibility of this matter, rushed out of the office without saying a word, drove to the prison while making a phone call in his car.

......

"These are the lists of people who have socialized with each other in the past and who have been released from prison."

In the prison, the warden quickly sorted out the materials for Lu Xingzhi, and poured a cup of tea and put it on his desk.

"I usually only have this labor protection tea, Captain Lu, you can just drink it."

"Thank you, Director Wang." Lu Xingzhi said politely, "I won't stay with you for a long time. I will take the materials back and screen the suspicious persons for investigation as soon as possible."

"That's okay." Director Wang didn't force him to stay, "Just call me if you need anything."

Back at the bureau, the team members sent out to investigate in the morning all returned without success, indicating that the deceased was not a permanent resident of that area. Lu Xingzhi seemed to have seen a mess, took a deep breath, and knocked on the table.

"Xiao Ming, take a few people with you and go to each district police station with the victim's photos in the afternoon and ask them to assist in the investigation."

"The rest of you, come with me and go through all the people in these materials!"

Lu Xingzhi distributed the materials in his hand, "These are ex-convicts who had contact with the murderer of the serial murder copycat case 13 years ago."

"At the back of the materials are the contact persons and contact information for the jurisdiction they will be assigned to after release."

"I ask you to complete the interviews and investigations of these people as quickly as possible!"

"receive!!!"
