Criminal Investigation Files

This is a grand event that takes place only once every five years. In order to watch this fireworks show, tens of thousands of people will gather in the square in front of the Lunjiang River.

With so many people standing together, stampede accidents are very likely to occur, and it is a period of high incidence of theft, and it is easy for children to get lost.

In order to maintain the order at the scene, the relevant personnel in the City Bureau Sub-bureau and various police stations have long been on the alert, as if they were facing an enemy.

The seven-day long vacation is undoubtedly something that office workers look forward to.But as a policeman, he is not as lucky as ordinary people. The traffic police have to maintain traffic, the local police have to strengthen patrols, and the anti-pickups have to catch thieves everywhere. Even the anti-pornography and anti-drugs are busier than usual.

The only thing that is better at this time is the criminal police. They only need to be busy when there is a dead person. If there is no dead person, then they can enjoy the holiday.

It can be seen that things backfired.It's a big festival, but a murder happened.

When Song Wen and Lu Siyu came out of the theater, the detailed address was also sent over. Hongfang Street, Lianhua Mingyue Building, is a famous Cantonese restaurant in Nancheng. It's the holiday season.

Song Wen and Lu Siyu took their bags and left the screening room. Song Wen went to throw away the popcorn bucket and drink cups, washed his hands, and prepared to start work later.When the two walked out of the theater, it was completely dark.

At this time, the number of people on the road had obviously increased, and the flow of people began to gather towards the bank of the Lunjiang River. Song Wen and Lu Siyu were squeezed into the flow of people, and after a while, they saw the iconic full moon and the huge white moon of the Lotus Moon Tower. Lotus, now a few words are displayed on the electronic screen next to it, flashing non-stop-"Closed business".

Lianhua Mingyuelou is a well-known hotel chain, and this one is their main branch in Nancheng. It is five floors high and focuses on the combination of ancient style and modernity.His family's dishes are also based on ancient recipes with some modern ideas.

This main store is famous for its huge logo of full moon and white lotus, which can be seen across several intersections.

The representative dish is the well-known lotus feast. The supply is limited every year when the lotus blooms. The freshest raw materials are picked, and various delicious dishes are made with lotus seeds, lotus pods, lotus flowers, lotus leaves, and lotus roots.

Song Wen and Lu Siyu walked over, and on the walking road not far from the entrance of the hotel, they saw a puddle of dried blood. It was only a short time before the crime happened, and the blood had been trampled everywhere. Judgment location.The people who came later didn't know that a murder had just happened here.

Lu Siyu squatted down and frowned slightly. There were so many people on the street now, it seemed that the policemen and shopkeepers who rushed over didn't want the corpse to just be placed at the door, so they moved directly.

He understands this kind of behavior very well. At this time, there is a dead person on the road, which can easily cause onlookers and stampede accidents. However, at this first scene, all the information left behind will be destroyed just like that...

Those dried bloodstains were trampled by people's footprints so that their original shapes could no longer be seen.

Song Wen raised his head and looked up. This area is the most prosperous neighborhood in Nancheng. Lianhua Mingyue Building is located at the corner of the intersection. It is not too high. Not far away, there are dozens or even hundreds of stories of high-rise buildings all around, with various lights. Reflecting this place as a depression of modern society.

The windows on this side of the Mingyue Building have guardrails, but on the fifth floor, there is a large open-air platform.

The building of the restaurant is rather high, said to be the fifth floor, and it is about twenty meters above the ground, which is equivalent to the seventh or eighth floor of a normal house.

The deceased seemed to have fallen from the platform, Song Wen patted Lu Siyu and said, "Let's go, the outside is almost destroyed, go in and have a look."

The two knocked on the door of Lianhua Mingyue Building, and there were already little policemen inside.

Ordinary guests had already been sent away. At this time, the entire hall on the first floor was empty, the tables were full of leftovers that hadn't been cleaned up in time, and the air still smelled of Buddha jumping over the wall.

The boss in charge here is a man in his 40s. At this time, he is still calm, but his face is sad. It must be because the closure of the business has affected the business, and he is also worried that there will be fewer customers in the future.

The boss saw the two people coming in and walked over: "The two police comrades are from the city bureau, right? There were too many people outside just now, so we had no choice but to bring the corpse in from the outside..." He pointed to the hall In a corner, the corpse was temporarily placed here, covered with a blood-stained white cloth.

The head waiter at the side also said: "We were busy in the store just now, when we heard a bang outside, someone screamed that someone had fallen from upstairs. Afterwards, several people ran down from upstairs, all with this woman. We ate together, shouted 'teacher' or something, and we hurriedly called the police."

Song Wen asked: "Are there any witnesses who saw how she fell?"

The store manager shook his head: "No one saw it. The ones who fell were the guests from the private room on the fifth floor near the platform. Today they came to a party together. Our platform is for customers to smoke or chat. , open all year round, the weather has been cold recently, and there are not many people going up. The guardrails and security of the platform are up to standard, and we didn’t expect that someone would fall from it.”

At that time, the people around were extremely terrified, and no one forgot to look up at the platform... Therefore, there were no witnesses.

Song Wen asked again: "What about monitoring?"

The little policeman on the side said: "We all watched it just now, that angle is a blind spot for monitoring."

It seems that this falling incident is not easy to characterize right away.

The police deduced that the location of the dead body was an important factor in the cause of death, but now, the dead body has been moved, leaving only a puddle of blood that was trampled on.Due to the lack of reference objects, the error is large.

That is to say, they couldn't judge how the body fell through the parabola and the position of the landing.

Lu Siyu walked over, put on the gloves he carried with him, and lifted the white cloth from the corpse. The corpse was lying on its stomach, and it was probably brought in according to the posture of falling from the building, without turning over.

The deceased was a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her 40s, her eyes were slightly open, and her death was very miserable.

The white cloth was pulled away, and the waitresses on the side backed away in fear.

Song Wen said to Lu Siyu: "Lao Lin and the others are not around tonight, so I think it will be hard for you."

"It's nothing hard." As Lu Siyu said, he squatted down and inspected carefully. When he was close to the corpse, his fair face had a focused expression, and that expression was different from Lin Xiuran's specialty. His gaze swept over, as if That's the interesting stuff in the world.

Lu Siyu first smelled the smell of blood, which was mixed with a strong smell of alcohol. The woman put on light makeup, but the makeup had already worn off by now, the foundation was sticking to her face piece by piece, and the lipstick was already gone come out.The woman's hair was long, permed, and a little messy. There were some white hairs in the black hair, probably because it was stained with blood, and it was a little wet at this time.

Lu Siyu frowned slightly, stretched out his hand through the gloves to stroke the corpse's hair, then put it under his nose and smelled it, the hair smelled of wine and a bit of cake cream.

Then Lu Siyu touched it carefully, starting from the head of the corpse.

The eyes of the female corpse were half-opened, because the metabolism slowed down due to age, those eyes were bubble eyes, and they were still a little red at this time, Lu Siyu flipped it with his gloves, and you could see that the eyes were bloodshot.Her forehead and nose were bleeding, and the blood around her mouth stained her jaw red. If you look carefully, there are still some tiny blood foams beside her mouth.There seemed to be some red marks on her cheeks, maybe it was scratches from the ground.

Lu Siyu touched the body of the deceased with his hands. The temperature had begun to drop, but it was still warm.

It's a pity that they don't have an investigation box at hand, and they can't test the rectal temperature, but according to the time of the alarm, they can estimate the time of death from the fall to be between [-]:[-] and [-].

It is now past seven o'clock, and rigor rigor has formed. It is obvious that multiple fractures can be felt, and they are all to the left, such as the left wrist, shoulder, and tibia of the left leg. From this, it can be judged that the corpse landed on the left side. , in line with the characteristics of falling buildings.

Then Lu Siyu asked Song Wen to help him turn the corpse over. Looking at it this way, there were more water stains on the corpse. There was blood, some alcohol, clear water, and maybe some sweat. A thin layer was soaked. clothes of the dead.At the position of the left rib, Lu Siyu obviously felt several broken injuries.

The superficial inspection was almost done, Lu Siyu raised his beautiful eyes, and his eyelashes were clearly visible under the reflection of the restaurant's overhead light: "The injuries were mild on the outside and severe on the inside, most of them were unilateral, and the cause of death may be a broken rib piercing the lungs and the heart, causing the deceased to die on the spot, with obvious fall injuries on his body, at least it can be confirmed that the deceased fell alive. Other estimates will have to wait for the autopsy, and check whether there is any abnormality in the blood. "

This means that what fell was not a corpse, but a living person.

After saying these words, Lu Siyu looked into the deceased's pocket again. There was no mobile phone or key in it. It seemed that her personal belongings were placed elsewhere. Finally, his eyes fell on the deceased's hand. His hand clenched into an empty fist, and it was very difficult to open it due to the stiffness of the body. Lu Siyu took a closer look and confirmed that there was nothing inside, so he gave up.

"There are only three situations. She jumped off the building, accidentally fell to her death, or someone else pushed her down." Song Wen turned to the little policeman, "Is there anything unusual around at that time?"

The film policeman introduced to Song Wen: "Because there is a firework show at night, this area is a key protection area. We happened to be patrolling nearby and arrived at the scene in 2 minutes. At that time, there were already many people watching. We were afraid The corpse caused riots on the road, and after taking a few photos of the scene, I asked my superiors to bring the corpse in."

Song Wendao: "Send us the photos. Are all the guests here?"

The little policeman nodded and sent the photo on his phone.

Lu Siyu came over to take a look. Due to the limited equipment, time, and technology, the photos were not very clear, there was no ruler, and the angle was very single, so the reference value was not very great.

The little policeman continued: "Just now we and the clerk asked the rest of the unrelated guests to register and leave the store. The deceased's tablemates were all detained. There were five of them, and one was not released."

Song Wen asked again: "Has the identity of the deceased been confirmed?"

"The name of the deceased is Zhang Dongmei. She was a math teacher in Nancheng No. [-] Middle School. She seems to be a well-known gold medal teacher in the city. We went up and asked briefly, and the students at the same table were all her students. Zhang Dongmei used to be a teacher. Their junior high school class teacher, who has graduated for ten years, came back to the party, and this is a teacher appreciation banquet."

Hearing this, Lu Siyu, who was squatting aside to examine the corpse, raised his head.

"Thank you banquet?" Song Wen also gently repeated.

At the teacher appreciation banquet, the teacher who was supposed to be the protagonist fell from a height.Is this suicide, accident or murder?
