The boss of the apocalypse travels back to the 1970s with space
Chapter 548: Could It Be Him? (Page 14)
"District Chief, another victim was found this morning," Wang Wenna said with a serious expression as she walked into Xia Meng's office and told her the unfortunate news.
Xia Meng stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look!"
Captain Hu was no longer surprised to see Xia Meng coming. Every time a new victim appeared, Xia Meng would come to take a look.
Seeing Xia Meng, Captain Hu said without waiting for Xia Meng to speak.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see it."
Xia Meng, "Okay!"
On the way, Captain Hu said to Xia Meng,
"Although the head of the previous victim was not found, we have confirmed her identity. She had a birthmark on her body and was recognized by her family."
"We have also done a DNA comparison and it is indeed her."
Xia Meng nodded, "Have you found any clues?"
Captain Hu, "After we confirmed the identity of the deceased, we investigated her background. The deceased worked as a waitress in a hotel. The hotel got off work late, so she naturally went home late at night."
"That night, the hotel business was unusually good, and the victim didn't return home until 1 a.m. There were not many cameras along the way, and the victim was last seen in front of a clothing store selling plus-size women's clothing."
"Plus-size women's clothing store?"
Xia Meng thought about it carefully and seemed to have some impression of this store, so she asked Captain Hu,
"Is that plus-size women's clothing store's sign white with red letters?"
Captain Hu nodded, "Does District Chief Xia know this store?"
Xia Meng said, "I haven't been in there, but I just passed by this store and have a vague impression of it."
The reason why Xia Meng had an impression of this store was that after she accompanied her aunt out of her nephew's scrap collection station that day, she saw two white and plump girls walking into the store. She glanced at them casually and remembered them.
Xia Meng asked Captain Hu, "Which camera is closest to the victim's home?"
Captain Hu said, "It's a stationery store, but we have carefully reviewed the video footage and the victim did not show up that night, which means she had been killed before."
Xia Meng nodded.
Then they followed Captain Hu to the forensic room, where the forensic doctor was performing an autopsy, and the two had to wait outside for a while.
Captain Hu was an acquaintance here and was very familiar with the place. He took Xia Meng to a lounge next door and poured her a cup of coffee.
Xia Meng glanced at Captain Hu's dark blue lower eyelids and couldn't help but advise,
"Captain Hu, how long have you been doing this? You have really big eye bags and your lower eyelids are all blue. Please take care of yourself!"
"Hey," Captain Hu waved his hand, "In our line of work, we're used to it."
After saying that, Captain Hu took a big sip of coffee skillfully.
"When I encounter a major case and cannot solve it, I feel uneasy."
"In the past, it was not so bad. We didn't encounter a major case for several years. When a major case came, all the police stations and bureaus would scramble to take it. These were all political achievements!"
"Now, because of natural disasters, criminals are like locusts, coming in droves. Not to mention the countless small cases, even the big cases are impossible to solve."
Captain Hu sighed, "For example, I always thought it would be great if I could solve a big case. If I don't solve a big case, my ability won't show."
"But after so many days, I still think it was better before!"
"Although the days in the past were dull, we ordinary people just want to live a dull life. Alas, in the past, we really didn't know how to appreciate the blessings we had!"
Xia Meng nodded, "Indeed, look at the present, it is still better than before, there is no gap without comparison."
The two talked about the past and their communication gradually increased.
At this time, the forensic doctor came back from the autopsy and saw Captain Hu and said,
"Captain Hu, I just finished the autopsy. I can only send you the report this afternoon."
"It's okay," Captain Hu said, "I'm here to accompany District Chief Xia to see the victims."
Xia Meng came several times, and the forensic doctor also knew Xia Meng. When he saw Xia Meng, he couldn't help but show respect to her.
"District Chief Xia, you are here again."
Xia Meng smiled, "Why? You're not welcome!"
"No, no," the young male forensic doctor said a little embarrassedly.
"Of course we welcome you, but this isn't a good place. I'm just touched that you can keep coming back to see the victims."
Xia Meng smiled and said, "I was born with a keen sense of smell. I came to see the victim in the hope of getting some clues from the victim so that I can solve the case as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, the forensic doctor's admiration for Xia Meng deepened.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: This is a good official!
Captain Hu and Xia Meng went to the morgue.
The body is still headless!
Looking at the headless corpse, Xia Meng's face became gloomy.
She looked at the corpse carefully and found that this corpse was no different from the previous one, except that this corpse was thinner and its skin was whiter and tenderer.
Captain Hu said,
"We found signs of abuse on the victim on this body."
Xia Meng frowned and looked carefully. She found that the body had a figure that was very much in line with men's aesthetics, with curves in all the right places, and a fair, tender and delicate complexion.
I guess the corpse must have been very beautiful, which is why the murderer was interested in it.
Moreover, the skin of this corpse is whiter, tenderer and more delicate, so it should be younger.
Xia Meng's nose twitched slightly, and then she seemed to smell a smell of rust on the corpse.
The smell of rust?
Why does it smell like rust?
Xia Meng reached out and gently lifted the cold corpse, and then saw the back of the corpse.
Captain Hu explained to Xia Meng, "The body struggled before death. There were some scratches on the back. We found some rust on them. It seems to be caused by old rusty iron wire."
Old rusty wire?
There are many abandoned buildings in the city now, and it is not uncommon to find discarded steel bars, wires, etc. in the buildings.
Especially in recycling stations, there are plenty of these things!
Xia Meng was suddenly stunned. Recycling station?
Recycling station?
Could it be?
No! That's not a coincidence, is it?
Xia Meng couldn't help but think of the previous corpse.
Xia Meng smelled a faint stench on the previous corpse. In the recycling station, there was a lot of waste garbage, and after being soaked by rainwater, a lot of the garbage gave off a rotten smell.
The stink of decay, rusty wire, even...even milk tea...
The only place that meets all the conditions!!!
Seeing that Xia Meng seemed to have thought of something and her expression suddenly became serious, Captain Hu asked curiously,
"District Chief Xia, have you thought of something?"
Everything was just Xia Meng's guess, without any substantial evidence. Xia Meng thought about it but still didn't say anything. She shook her head and said,
"Thinking of something else."
Captain Hu nodded, and then comforted Xia Meng,
