Three people and one ghost solved 43 mysterious cases.

This happened in 1990, and the victim was a 50-year-old woman named He Shuimei.

She had just moved to K city from the countryside of Menan and lived in a rental house in a village.

One morning, He Shuimei was at home, and suddenly there was a knock on the door. He Shuimei went to open the door, and there was a stranger standing at the door.

It was a strange woman. For some unknown reason, He Shuimei invited the woman into the house and took out her wallet.

Then, the strange woman closed the door, and as the door clicked, no one knew what tragic events would happen in this room.

About 15 minutes later, He Shuimei's brother drove up.

The elder brother's name is He Jindi, and he is a decoration worker. It was he who brought his sister from the countryside of Meinan to the city.

He Jindi thought that his sister would be fine in her hometown. She could come to the city to work as a cleaner or nanny, and the income would be better than farming in her hometown.

He Jindi parked the pickup truck in front of He Shuimei's house.

This house is a village house. He Jindi rented it for He Shuimei for 300 yuan a month. It is a temporary transition.

He Jindi came today to take his sister to the supermarket in the city to purchase some items.

He got out of the car, knocked on the door of the house, and asked, "Sister Shui, how are you? Can you go out?"

He heard He Shuimei's screams coming from inside the house.

The brother quickly went to open the door, but it couldn't be opened. He banged the door and shouted, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, the door opened from the inside.

A woman covered in blood ran out. She looked very young.

He Jindi didn't know this woman, and his sister had just moved here, so she definitely didn't know her either. Who is she?

The brother grabbed the woman's hand.

The woman's hands were covered in blood and were sticky and slippery.

With a strong effort, the woman broke away from her brother's hand and ran towards the mountain road outside the house.

.

He Jindi took a look at the situation inside the house. He Shuimei was lying on the ground, covered in blood and still breathing, moaning in pain.

He Jindi's first reaction was - that woman attacked He Shuimei, catch her first.

He Jindi went to chase the woman. The woman ran very fast. She was young. He Jindi was already over 50 years old and his physical strength was very tight.

But he still chased desperately, shouting while chasing, "Stop, someone is coming."

The place was a village house on the side of the mountain. The young and strong people had gone out to work. A few old people looked out of the windows. They didn't know what was going on, so they just watched.

Only He Jindi is chasing the woman.

After leaving the village and connecting to the mountain, the woman ran towards the mountain, with He Jindi behind.

After running for a few minutes, the woman suddenly stopped, turned her back to He Jindi, put her hands on her waist, and said viciously, "I have a gun on me. If you follow me again, I will shoot you."

At that time, He Jindi was a little scared. Yes, his sister was covered in blood and she didn't know what kind of weapon she was attacked by.

The person in front of her said she had a gun, and she probably did. If she pulled out the gun, the consequences would be disastrous.

"No more chasing!" the woman said and continued running forward.

But He Jindi gave up the pursuit, thinking that he would go back to the house first and see how his sister was doing.

He returned to the house - He Shuimei's home.

There is a bottle of dark soy sauce on the single sofa, an old-fashioned telephone and a fruit knife on the floor.

He Shuimei was lying on the ground dying, with a telephone cord wrapped around her neck. She had been stabbed four or five times with a knife, and her body was bleeding.

The brother helped He Shuimei up and asked, "Sister, what happened? Who attacked you?"

"I...I don't know."

After He Shuimei said this, she closed her eyes and died.

.

Next, the police rushed to the scene to investigate the case.

According to He Jindi's confession, the suspect is a young woman.

The police's preliminary inference is:

When the woman entered the house, she first used a phone to knock He Shuimei unconscious. He Shuimei resisted. Out of self-defense, He Shuimei took a fruit knife from the kitchen.

There was only He Shuimei's fingerprint on the fruit knife.

Therefore, the woman should have grabbed He Shuimei's hand, and He Shuimei was holding a fruit knife. During the fight, the direction of the knife edge was inserted into He Shuimei's body, and she stabbed him several times. Then He Shuimei was in pain and the knife fell to the ground.

Then the woman strangled He Shuimei's neck with a phone cord. Just then, her brother appeared at the door.

The woman fled out of the house, and He Shuimei died of excessive blood loss.

The next step is to collect the criminal evidence left by the perpetrator.

But in 1990, DNA and forensic technology were not yet perfect. At the scene, the police found no useful clues left by the perpetrator.

The only evidence was a sticky, possibly blood-stained fingerprint found near the window.

This fingerprint was left by the murderer. But it's strange, why are the fingerprints next to the window?

The police simulated the position and angle of the fingerprint and determined that the assailant was standing by the window looking at the "scenery" and accidentally pressed his index finger on the wall, leaving a fingerprint.

Logically speaking, if you kill someone, you should be very panicked. Why do you want to look at the scenery?

Is he a perverted killer?

Soon the police deduced the reason. After killing someone, the woman's hands were stained with He Shuimei's blood, and she was really panicked.

At this time, her brother He Jindi knocked on the door again. The woman wanted to see who was outside, so she stood by the window and took her fingerprints.

It stands to reason that in this case, the suspect is clear and there are fingerprints, so it should not be difficult to solve the case.

The police took He Jindi to a room and wanted He Jindi to make a suspect puzzle.

He Jindi was stunned for a moment.

Because the incident was so sudden, even though he had seen the woman, she collided head-on with him. It only took a second for the woman to break free from his entanglement. After that, all he was left with was her back and profile.

In addition, He Jindi was confused at the time, so he could no longer recall the suspect's facial features and appearance, and he could not complete the suspect puzzle.

Just roughly speaking, the suspect is a thin woman in her early 20s, with short hair, 160cm tall, and wearing a floral shirt.

.

In 1990, surveillance was not widespread.

The police went around the village and asked the villagers if they had seen a 160cm tall, thin woman with short hair and wearing a floral shirt?

None of the villagers said they knew him.

There is no female suspect in the village who fits this profile.

Therefore, it seems that outsiders entered the village for the purpose of robbery.

At this time, the police had no choice but to ask citizens for help. They announced the murder case on TV news and newspapers, hoping to find anyone with information, and left a hotline number.

Fortunately, a very important call came in that day.

The caller was a man. He said his name was Contra. It was obvious that this was a fake name.

The policeman asked, "What Contra, what is your real name?"

"Do you want to know who killed that woman? If you don't want to hear it, I'll die."

"Okay, tell me."

Contra said that he knew what was going on in this case and that the murderer was his friend named Fire Phoenix.

Obviously, this is also a fake name.

Huo Fenghuang personally admitted to Contra that she killed He Shuimei for the purpose of robbery.

This is simply God’s vision, and now there are even witnesses.

The police asked Contra, would you like to help our police solve the case?

The police said, "We will put a bug on you. You invite Huo Fenghuang out and ask her to tell the case again. With the evidence, we will get both the stolen goods and the stolen goods."

On the phone, Contra hesitated for a while and said, "I'm sorry, I can't betray my friends."

"Hey, this is a murder case. I hope you can cooperate with our police."

"There's only so much I can say. Remember, you have to keep it a secret for me and you can't betray me!"

Contra then hung up the phone.
