Misty Forest [Criminal Investigation]

Qi Yu completely pushed open the door, and the ground inside the door was covered with innumerable bloody footprints with indistinguishable boundaries.

Qi Yu stepped into the house. This is a one-bedroom large open room. The living room and bedroom are mixed together. There is a set of wardrobes against the wall on the right side of the entrance. A double bed is placed in the middle of the room, and the quilt on the bed is piled in the corner of the bed.Inside the bed is a set of three-seater sofas and a small tea table. Clothes and trousers are messily thrown on the sofa. Qi Yu lifted it up to have a look, and the dirty and clean were mixed together.The coffee table was clean, Nianfeng should have taken away a batch of things.There is a vertical fan on the outside of the door facing the bed, and there is a small balcony with curtains two steps away. The curtains on the balcony window were not closed tightly and were slightly shaken by the wind.An LCD TV was hung on the wall at the end of the bed, and there was a low cabinet below with a kettle on it. Qi Yu opened the lid of the kettle and put it back in its original place.

The bloody footprints are separated by the bed in the middle of the house, and the ground from the bed to the balcony is clean.Qi Yu turned around and saw that in the bathroom, thick blackened and dried blood almost covered the floor, and the color and pattern of the floor tiles could no longer be seen clearly.Although the corpse has been removed, there are still countless flies lingering inside, reluctant to leave, and there is also a small amount of blood on the wall.The bathroom was empty, I don't know if it was taken away by Nian Feng or there was nothing left.

Glancing at the door of the bathroom at Qiyu Station, he stopped everyone in their tracks, "Search for anything of value in the house."

Qi Yu walked into the kitchen next to the bathroom. In the kitchen, there was a pot on the stove, and a small half of the pot was filled with unknown substances that had dried up and rolled up.Qi Yu poked it with a shovel, and the contents of the pot condensed into a ball and followed the shovel in a circle in the pot.

In order to see what was inside, Qi Yu had to smash it with a shovel a few times, and a strong rotten smell gushed out.Qi Yu's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and he held his breath and approached the pot. In the middle of the pot that could barely be called food, there were some raw materials that could be slightly recognized before birth: noodles, tomatoes, eggs, Meat slices, green leafy vegetables.

Qi Yu threw the spatula into the pot and glanced at the stove. There was a clean medium-sized bowl and a pair of wooden chopsticks with unknown substances wrapped around their heads.Qi Yu opened the cupboard, seasoned rice and noodles were all available, opened the refrigerator, there were eggs, fruit, yogurt, and ice cream.

Qi Yu retreated to the room, and the other three had just finished looking through the closet.Wen Bin pointed to a stack of rectangular boxes neatly stacked in the corner of the closet and asked Qi Yu: "Take it away?"

Qi Yu gasped when he saw the familiar specification packaging, what kind of luck is this, three cases in a row are inseparable from these crap.

"Take it!"

Qi Yu opened the bedside table. On the top was an unsealed box that was packaged with the wardrobe. He took it out and counted: there were five more.He closed the box and handed it to Wen Bin. Under the box was a pile of messy lists. He took the bag and put them all in as they were.

"The deceased still had a mobile phone, and the forensic doctor Nian took it away first, saying that he would return it to us after collecting the surface traces." Qu Ruichuan said.

"When did you say that? Why didn't I know?" Qi Yu asked back.

"On the stairs just now, you walked fast. I walked last, and the forensic doctor Nian told me."

Qi Yu muttered in his heart, why did I forget such an important thing when I saw it?Remember when you see someone else?

The furnishings in Xue Bin's room are relatively simple, without too many things.It didn't take long for the four of them to collect valuable items. Qi Yu took the key hanging on the wall at the entrance, locked the door, and sealed the door.

Qi Yu took a few people up to the top floor, a total of four floors, each floor is two households, a total of eight households.A few people walked and took pictures with their mobile phones, and the flash lights came and went one after another with the sound of clicking.

Walking out of the unit door, Ke Xia was still guarding downstairs with someone, praying for rain to signal that the security tape could be removed.He pointed to the side of the building and asked Bao Siqi and Wen Bin to go around together.He and Qu Ruichuan stood downstairs and intercepted every resident who was about to go home. If you want to enter the unit, please cooperate and ask first.

Through the descriptions of the neighbors, Qi Yu knew that Xue Bin was not a local, but moved here two years ago, and he was an acquaintance with the neighbors.People are more enthusiastic. Sometimes when they see old people going up and down the stairs, women are carrying heavy objects, and men are carrying large items, he will help them out.Everyone was shocked when they heard that he had an accident. Although they only knew his last name and didn't even know which unit his full name was in, everyone generally believed that he was a kind and kind person.

Qi Yu focused on asking about Xue Bin's relationship status, and the residents shook their heads.

"Looks like a single."

"Maybe you are married? His wife and children are not here? Anyway, I usually see him alone."

"His house doesn't seem to have seen any guests come."

Qi Yu squatted at the door to seven households, and Qu Ruichuan recorded the names and room numbers of each household in detail.

After praying for the last family, Bao Siqi and Wen Bin came back, and they drove back to the courtyard.The shiny new car in the parking space in the yard was no longer there, and Qi Yu asked everyone to go to the office to collect preliminary information, and he went to the appraisal department.

Qi Yu walked up to the second floor, the corridor door was ajar, he opened the door and walked in a quiet place.There was no one in the laboratory or office, and there was light under the door of the dissecting room. He walked over and knocked on the metal door of the dissecting room.

After a soft rustling sound, the door opened a slit wide, and Zhu Shitian's face wearing a mask, goggles and hat appeared in the door: "Pray for the police officer?"

"Let me see how the autopsy is going?" Qi Yu pointed inside, tiptoed to see Nian Feng standing beside the dissecting table with his head buried.

"It's early...not so fast, you go back first. It's not convenient for people outside the anatomy room to come in."

"Isn't the glass compartment just for people to see?"

Qiyu has been here more than once, and he knows that Nianfeng specially designed a glass partition directly opposite the dissecting bed, with a dialogue loudspeaker inside, so that he can observe without disturbing the forensic work while standing there.

"That's not for you either." After Zhu Shitian finished speaking, he closed the door with a bang.

The vibration of the door forced Qi Yu to take half a step back, and he stared wide-eyed for half a second, incredulously recovering: he encountered violent obstruction for the first time in his life!He took two deep breaths and turned back to the first floor.

"Where did Lin Zhao go?" Qi Yu asked Wen Bin as soon as he entered the door.

"He and Marvin sent out some samples that were urgently tested."

"Tell them to be careful on the road, safety first!"

Bao Siqi turned off the lights in the office and turned on the projector, and the big white wall just acted as a curtain.Wen Bin pulled out the information he had just sorted out and gave a general introduction to the case.

Dead: Xue Bin, male, 29 years old, from B province, college degree.He used to be a staff member of the Longdong Headquarters of Natural Good Taste Group in Longdong City. He was transferred to Lumna three years ago with the development and development of the group's new business, and has been working here for three years since then. The work content is field work.

This afternoon, Cheng Lu, a colleague from the company, saw that he had not been on duty for two days and could not be contacted. He came to exchange work matters and found out that he was killed.

Wen Bin pulled out the scene photos taken by the forensic doctor. Before Qi Yu had time to ask why the photos were not sent to me, he covered his eyes and cursed.

There were gasps in the office one after another, and Qi Yu wiped his face: "Little Baozi is doing well, he didn't vomit!"

"It's okay that it doesn't taste..." Bao Siqi pursed his lips, he didn't want to be praised like this.

"Before Lin Zhao left, he saved the photos in a USB flash drive and put them on my desk. He gave me a message on the mobile phone to introduce the situation at the scene. He estimated that Nianfeng would be too busy after he left." Wen Bin talked about individual topics to give everyone time to digest.

Qi Yu took a deep breath and stared at the big white wall. The corpse was lying in the bathroom. The surface was bloody and bloody with obvious white spots. The red and white was not because the murderer scratched the surface of the dead skin with a knife, but the whole layer of the dead skin. It was completely peeled off, the white dots were some kind of small organisms, and the skin tissue was missing from the crime scene.

A large amount of blood was lost in the body of the deceased, and the cause of death has not been determined for the time being. It is not sure whether the murderer caused the blood loss due to skinning or bleeding first and then skinning.Because the surface of the corpse was covered with small things, Nian Feng took a long time to clear the interference before proceeding to the formal autopsy.

Qi Yu raised his hands and rubbed his face vigorously: "Lin Zhao is gone, and the mobile phone can't be inspected temporarily. You can see the difficulty of the autopsy. We can't wait. Tonight, Xiao Baozi inquires about Xue Bin's work and life. You. Let's take all the things we found from Xue Bin's house. Qu Ruichuan and I will go to the victim's unit tomorrow morning. You two go to the neighborhood of the deceased's residence, the neighborhood of the unit, and ask one by one on the way home to see if there are any. What clues."

Everyone put on gloves again and sorted out the things they brought back one by one. Qi Yu opened the receipts he found from the bedside table, and Qu Ruichuan and the others opened various printed materials they found from the wardrobe and other places.

Praying for rain, one by one, flipping through papers of different specifications and content, filled with various tickets, receipts, accommodation invoices, and catering invoices. There are traces of obsolete, in addition to a single-page account written by hand with a pen.

March 3: From Lu to Yun, the fare is 6 yuan, 150 yuan for overnight accommodation, 240 yuan for breakfast, 30 yuan for instant noodles and ham sausage at the lunch stop, and 265 yuan for dinner.

3月7日：交通费150，午饭：110，晚饭350，住宿240。

March 3: Yun to Lu, lunch: 8, fare 180.

……

After looking through most of it, Qi Yu realized that this pile of things were all Xue Bin's work records, and they were basically related to business trips.

For example, Qi Yu found two prescriptions and checklists in a pile of receipts that appeared to be issued by informal medical units.No price was written on it, and Xue Bin did not record the price.There is also the cash register receipt in the supermarket because it has been placed with wet items, and the handwriting on it is blurred, and Xue Bin did not make a supplementary record.

Qu Ruichuan and the others sorted out all the things related to Xue Bin's work, contracts, copies of machine-printed invoices issued by the government for paying certain fees, thick stacks of them all...

A group of people worked until midnight. Nian Feng walked into the office on the first floor in a white coat and handed the phone to Wen Bin: "I hurriedly cleaned it when I came back, and Lin Zhaolou gave it to you. I won't see it until I get back to the office. , I hope it didn't delay your work."

Wen Bin took it and said thank you, there was no delay.Qi Yu looked at Nian Feng's drooping hair on his forehead and asked, "How's the progress?"
