[Rebirth] Bone Quest

Chapter 9 Murder in the Woods

"Boss, Xingxing, you are here."

Qi Ji saw Cong Rong and Qiao Yu coming towards him, and gestured to He Junzhi, and the two walked quickly through the cordon surrounding them.

Cong Rong nodded, and asked directly without saying anything else: "What's going on, tell me the general situation."

"The deceased's name was Li Xiaomin, 19 years old, a sophomore at T University. The preliminary judgment should be that he died of shock due to massive chest hemorrhage."

He Junzhi continued what Qiji said, "According to the reporter, he accidentally drove into the forest at night when he got lost, and hit something. He thought he had hit someone, so he got out of the car to check. In the end, Li Xiaomin's body was discovered." He Junzhi took out a piece of paper from the folder and handed it to Cong Rong, "The reporter is called Zhang Dawei, this is the statement provided by the reporter, boss, please take a look."

Cong Rong took the confession and lowered his head to watch seriously, Qiao Yu frowned after leaning over to look at it.

"Why did this Zhang Dawei come to such a place so late?" Qiao Yu said, looking at the surrounding terrain.

This is a small forest on the outskirts of the city. Because it is far away from the urban area and sparsely populated, the plants grow very lush, and the tall tree crowns cover the sky. At night, it is even more eerie, so there are no factories and plants around here. resident.Although it looked like an excellent place to commit crimes, it was really hard for ordinary people to find it. Zhang Dawei's appearance here in the early morning was really suspicious.

"He came to T City from another place to visit relatives. He was in a hurry to go back tonight because he had something to do at noon tomorrow, but he got lost on the road and stumbled into here by mistake. I checked his identity on purpose. He We didn’t know each other with the deceased, there was no criminal motive and all his confessions were true, so there should be no suspicion.” He Junzhi led Cong Rong and Qiao Yu to the crime scene, and while talking, he turned on the guarding policeman. Work Permit.

"Actually, I think he killed someone by driving a car, and he made up a reason on purpose for fear of being held criminally responsible." Qi Ji came over, rubbing his chin with an inscrutable expression.

At this time, He Junzhi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, stared at Qiji like an idiot and said, "Can't you see that girl's chest was cut open and her intestines flowed out, and the X mark on her wrist What's going on again? Don't tell me that Zhang Dawei thought that after hitting someone with his car, everyone was dead anyway, and the little girl was beautiful, so he raped the corpse and took a few organs, and then put it on her wrist on a whim. Draw an X."

"I'm just fantasizing about it. I'd rather he killed someone in a traffic accident than believe that X is still alive." Qi Ji cried with a sad expression, as if tomorrow would be 2012.

Cong Rong, who had been silent all this time, raised his head and said firmly, "Even if X didn't die that year, he probably wouldn't have done this case."

Qiao Yu, Qi Ji and He Junzhi all raised their eyebrows and looked at him in surprise, not understanding why he said that.

Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Are you so sure? On the road just now, you suspected that X was not arrested at all. Now this case is the same as the two previous cases. Why don't you doubt him? "

Cong Rong raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Yu meaningfully without saying a word, but walked forward a few steps quickly. Qiao Yu and the others followed his footsteps to the scene of the incident full of curiosity in their hearts.

This is a depression slightly lower than the side, and the blood stains have stained the surrounding weeds into dark brown. A blood-covered female corpse is lying on it, eyes staring in horror, and her facial expression is extremely distorted.The entire area from the neck to the lower abdomen was cut open with a sharp weapon, exposing all the organs in the chest cavity.Her legs were wide open, her blue school uniform skirt was torn into pieces, and her private parts were stained with dried blood.With her left hand gripping her collar tightly, her right hand was covering her belly, which had been marked with a big X.

Even Qiao Yu, who was used to seeing killings, felt compassionate when he saw this scene.Which beast did such a cruel thing to a girl in her prime, it was so cruel, she was simply a beast.Looking at the girl's terrified expression, one could tell how cruelly she had been tortured before she died. She didn't close her eyes until she died, which shows that she really did not rest in peace.

Qi Ji turned his back and couldn't bear to take another look. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered the girl's face, "We will definitely bring that beast to justice to comfort your spirit in heaven. Rest in peace."

Qiao Yu walked up to Cong Rong and patted him on the shoulder, "How on earth did you find out that X didn't do it? This method looks similar to what you told me before."

"No, I can feel that the perverted desire of the murderer is stronger this time. He must have been stimulated by something or urgently needed something, so compared to X and the gang who stole organs, this murderer's method It's more brutal, and it destroys the beauty."

Qiao Yu's expression suddenly became complicated, but Qi Ji raised the corners of his mouth in disdain, "This thing can still have a sense of beauty, anyway, it's killing people, it's all bloody, I don't see where it's beautiful."

"Actually... killing people is also about art." Qiao Yu held his chin and said secretively, "It's like painters have a perverted obsession with composition and color. For example, if they want to paint a portrait, they require the model to be certain. To wear light-colored clothes or to pose in a certain way, if the model fails to do so, he will be anxious or even irritable, thinking that the beauty he is pursuing has been deliberately destroyed."

Cong Rong glanced at him appreciatively, nodded, and said, "That's right, that's what it means. The smarter the murderer, the more obsessed with this. They don't bother to use the techniques that everyone can do to kill people, so they can't stand out from them." They are different, so they often leave a unique mark or characteristic on purpose after committing a crime to tell the police that the person was killed by him. Just like X will definitely leave an X mark after killing someone, this is a way for them to show off. "

"Oh, what a horrible obsessive-compulsive disorder." Qiao Yu shook his head with a smile, and looked at Cong Rong tacitly. He couldn't tell that Cong Rong really had two skills, and his understanding of those murderers was no worse than that of a killer like me. Where to go, I didn't expect that Cong Rong also turned around at this time, and the eyes of the two met in the air. Although there was a little more appreciation in each other's eyes, they immediately averted their eyes the moment they saw each other.

Qiao Yu pouted, no matter how strong he looked, he still looked like an annoying old fox, he must have taken the wrong medicine just now to think he was so handsome.

Cong Rong rubbed his nose and smiled inwardly. When the soft-footed shrimp also exploded in the small universe, it can't be seen that he still has a little research on criminal psychology. Could it be that Yumu's brain has opened up?

The two acted like there was no one else around, and you analyzed the "beauty of murder" one by one, which was exhausting. He dragged his head and squatted on the ground to look at Qiao Yu for a while, Cong Rong for a while, and finally scratched his head. He shook his head and said, "What are you two talking about? Why can't I understand a word? What does the artist and obsessive-compulsive disorder have to do with whether this case is done by X? Ahhhh...you are all bullying people!"

He Junzhi kicked him, "Don't make such noises, listen to the boss."

Cong Rong smiled, leaning against a big tree and said: "I have studied the case of X back then, and he never killed people with any purpose. It seems that he killed people for the pleasure of killing, and he usually kills Giving the other party a good time will not use such a cruel method as in this case."

He walked to the corpse and pointed: "Look at the girl's expression after she died, you can tell how deep her resentment is. Such a crazy way of killing makes the murderer feel very anxious. Satisfy himself, and the girl's blood just satisfies his twisted heart, this kind of method is not in line with X's consistent mentality of killing people."

"Then what kind of mentality does X have for killing people?" He Junzhi asked suspiciously.

"Uh... I don't know how to describe this to you. He seems to be very concerned about the integrity of the corpse. He doesn't easily use extremely destructive methods such as chopping, stabbing, and burning. Instead, he is more loyal to strangling. Such a way of killing people without seeing blood, this kind of mentality is more like...like..." Cong Rong wanted to find a suitable word, but he couldn't find a word that could summarize this feeling.

"Sacrifice." Qiao Yu suddenly walked up to Cong Rong and said, "This kind of mentality is more like a sacrifice. He kept the body intact, but only left a bloody wound and an X mark, as if to Use the blood of the dead to pay homage to something, to show that he has completed the task of killing."

Cong Rong's eyes lit up, and he quickly cast his gaze on Qiao Yu, with complicated eyes, "Yes, that's the feeling! X is very obsessed with maintaining the integrity of the corpse, and will not mess up the dead for no reason. This It's not X's style for the murderer to make this place so bloody."

Qi Ji was confused, but he still caught one point, "That is to say, a psychopathic paranoid like X doesn't even bother to use such bloody methods to kill people?"

"Bingo! Naturally dumbfounded at last." He Junzhi clapped his hands and looked at Qiji with a smile.

Cong Rong nodded, that's what he meant, subconsciously looked up at Qiao Yu, only to find that he was frowning as if he had something on his mind.

"Hey, soft-legged shrimp, what's wrong with you?" Cong Rong walked to Qiao Yu's side.

Qiao Yu's hair was blown up by the wind, revealing a pair of misty eyes, "I still can't understand a little bit, X didn't show any interest in killing people at the beginning, but when he reappeared, he seemed to be a different person Same, raped those girls, this is not in line with his style."

"Maybe the content of the sacrifice has changed." Cong Rong raised the corner of his mouth.

"What do you mean?"

"It's like people in ancient times gave virgin boys and girls to the river god. Everyone thought that virgin boys and girls could protect the peace of the river, but one day the river god changed his taste and wanted to marry a beautiful girl. The flood drowned human beings. Who knows if the river god prefers boys and girls or beautiful girls." Cong Rong raised the corners of his mouth, his face full of inscrutability.

Qi Ji sneaked into He Junzhi's ear, and whispered, "Why did the boss laugh like crazy when he saw the stars for a few days? Now even the river god has moved out, and the river god has a dime relationship with X." ah?"

He Junzhi glared at him, shut up and listened carefully, there is so much nonsense.

Qiao Yu's head was a little confused, he didn't understand what Cong Rong wanted to express, he shook his head with a dazed expression on his face.

Cong Rong laughed in a rare good-tempered manner, and reached out to pat Qiao Yu's head, "Since you guess that X's murder is like a sacrifice, then if the object of his sacrifice is not satisfied with a woman's corpse, he is more interested in virgin blood , then if you were X would you rape those women to get virgin blood?

Qiao Yu's mind suddenly lit up, something flashed past him, he stood up abruptly and ran to the side of the corpse, and the other three followed without knowing why.

"Virgin's blood! Cong Rong, you are right! When you were studying X's case, have you ever noticed whether the women who were killed were virgins?" Qiao Yu pointed at the dried blood on the lower body of the female corpse. His face was full of excitement, and his heart suddenly became clear.

Qi Ji moved to He Junzhi's side again, and complained: "I can't tell that Xing Xing is still a little pervert, staring at other girls' places, you are a hooligan."

The veins on He Junzhi's forehead twitched violently, and he kicked Qiji fiercely, "Please misplace the focus, okay! Everyone is thinking about the case, what kind of nonsense are you talking about!"

Aggrieved, Qi Ji crouched on the ground and drew circles, "But the stars really have been staring at him..."

Cong Rong didn't hear what He Junzhi and Qiji were muttering, all his thoughts were on the words "virgin's blood".

He rubbed his chin, frowned slightly and said, "Hearing what you said, I really haven't paid attention to this problem. Most of the previous case files are lost, and in my impression, newspapers and TVs at that time didn't mention this. Problem, it seems worth looking into."

He Junzhi felt embarrassed when he heard this, and said with embarrassment: "Um...boss, how do we check whether she is a virgin? Why don't you just come to the door and ask?"

"That's right, those women have been dead for many years, how can we ask their family members such questions." Qi Ji poked his head out and nodded vigorously.

"It's not smart to say that you are stupid. There were so many dead people back then. If you go door-to-door and ask if there is any more, you just need to check whether the people who were killed after X appeared again had any marriage history. You can guess it roughly." Probably?" Cong Rong squinted at the two of them, and suddenly a gust of cold wind blew, and the two nodded in agreement.

Cong Rong nodded in satisfaction, changed the topic, and looked at Qiao Yu with a smile, "As for the girl who died today, I'm afraid I'll have to rely on you to check her."

Qiao Yu immediately frowned, "I don't want it."

Cong Rong pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes, "You are the only forensic doctor here, who will do it if you don't do it?"

Qiao Yu hated Cong Rong's confident expression and shrewd eyes from the bottom of his heart, so he waved his hand coldly, "I didn't bring any tools."

Cong Rong let out a laugh, picked up the black suitcase from the side and threw it at Qiao Yu, Qiao Yu subconsciously caught it, and then heard Cong Rong say, "Don't worry, I've prepared all the tools for you, the things inside are Everything is available.”

Qiao Yu immediately exploded when he heard this. It turned out that when this guy came out with this box mysteriously, he was sure that he would use the excuse of not having tools to prevaricate him. Just now he said it was a secret, but now he looks like he has nothing to do with me. The dry expression is really annoying to see!

Cursing the stinky fox secretly, Qiao Yu squatted down to open the box with a cold face, took out a sharp scalpel and other tools, took a deep breath and opened the girl's internal organs.

At this time, Qi Ji who was standing aside murmured softly, "Huh? Xing Xing used to vomit in a mess when he dissected corpses, but this time he didn't vomit when he saw these intestines, blood vessels, etc. It's amazing."

He Junzhi also looked suspiciously at Li Yexing, who looked plain but moved neatly, and glanced at the unpredictable Cong Rong who was standing aside and smiling. He always felt that something had changed, specifically He couldn't say for sure, so he nodded and said, "That's good, at least the relationship between Boss and Xing Xing looks much stronger than before."

"No, Xing Xing had no time to hide when he heard about a murder case before, but this time he came to the scene with his boss in the middle of the night. What's even more amazing is that Xing Xing's cutting action looks like he has experienced a lot of battles. It's called a steady hand. Quite ruthless, is it possible that hitting the head can also help improve IQ?"

He Junzhi shook his head and did not speak.Seeing that He Junzhi ignored him, Qiji closed his mouth in distaste.

The sky is gradually brightening, and the tall trees can gradually see their shapes. Cong Rong is leaning on the trunk not far away, closing his eyes and waiting for Qiao Yu to finish the work. Everyone felt that there was something wrong with Li Yexing, and it seemed that there was something wrong with Li Yexing.

But...he suddenly showed a meaningful smile, Li Yexing is quite cute now, especially when he is angry.
