Criminal Investigation: Satan's Forest

An investigator interrupted suddenly: "Just now they both said that they had seen the deceased around seven o'clock in the morning. Even though Mei Qinglin was similar in size and hairstyle to the deceased Sun Lao Er, the people in one village misidentified the two. The chances should not be great. Besides, it was already dawn at that time."

Mori: "As long as the conditions are created, everything has a probability of happening. If people's vision, psychology, etc. are used, then even events with zero probability of occurrence can become possible events. In addition, don't forget, What you see is not necessarily what you see.”

"After seven o'clock today, who has seen the deceased?"

The bald man and the short man looked at me and I looked at you, and then timidly said in unison: "I have seen him."

Mori was noncommittal: "Please carefully recall the scene at that time."

The bald man seriously recalled: "I greeted him in the morning, and he just turned around and entered the room, and replied indistinctly."

Mori: "Have you seen his face?"

"Uh... this one doesn't seem to be there."

Mori: "Then how do you judge that person is him?"

"Second Sun is the only one in his family, and the figure from behind should be him."

Mori turned to look at another short man, "Please describe the situation when you saw Sun Lao Er."

The short man scratched his head, "I just came out of the house at that time, and he had just walked to the entrance of the village. At that time, Sun Laoer should be preparing to go down the river, and he was wearing water pants as usual."

Mori: "Have you seen his face?"

"That's not it."

Mori: "Then what is your basis for judging that the person you saw was him?"

The short man looked confident, and said: "I followed his walking posture. Sun Laoer has short legs since he was a child, and he walks with a limp, which is the only way he walks in our village. I saw him this morning. Sometimes, he also limps, so who else is that person?"

"You all made the same mistake, that is preconceived ideas. Because before you saw that person, you already believed that that person was Sun Lao Er in your heart, so you stored this wrong memory without thinking. When asked again At that time, your answers will naturally be based on the false memories you have stored in advance. So you have all ignored a very important detail... none of you have seen the face of 'Second Sun'."

When Mori Yu said this, the two of them bowed their heads and thought for a while, as if this was really the case.

Mori put his hands in the pockets on both sides of his trousers, looking ruthless.His gaze was fixed on "Old Mei" who had been convicted by him long ago, and there was endless sharpness under his eyes.Just listen to him coldly say:

"Before seven o'clock, you first used some reason to trick the deceased to the river and pushed him into the river. You are not much different from the deceased in size, but because one of the deceased's arms was injured before, no matter whether it is strength or physical strength He is not as good as you. So you easily drowned him in the river. After killing the dead, in order to prevent the body from being washed away by the river, so that it was discovered in advance. Of course, it is also to carry out the subsequent drama to the end... So you use the stones prepared in advance to press the body to the bottom of the river to fix the body. Then, you go back to the deceased’s home, put on the same clothes you prepared in advance, and deliberately pretend to be the deceased. It is to make people think that Sun’s second child is still alive. Of course, you take the risk, and the main reason for taking so much trouble to do so is to forge an alibi for yourself.”

Mei Qinglin calmed down a lot at this time, he said: "Whatever you say, I have already said that I will come to the fields early in the morning to plow the ground."

At this time, the bald man said timidly, "Comrade policeman, it will take at least three or four hours to plow this large area. He will return to the field after killing people, and it is impossible to complete such a large area in the remaining time." .”

Lin Wei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly squatted down, picked up a small piece of soil from the ground, and crushed it between his fingers.Just listen to him casually say:

"This land was indeed plowed today..." He changed the subject: "However, the humidity of the soil plowed the earliest is quite different from the humidity of the soil plowed the latest. The sun rises around 06:30 in the morning. So far the sun is not the strongest, but you see... the top layer of soil has low humidity, obviously the water in the soil has evaporated. If this land was plowed three or four hours ago, fresh The water in the soil does not evaporate that much. So judging by the degree of dryness and wetness of the soil, the land under my feet was plowed five to six hours ago, and the piece of land under your feet was plowed three or four hours ago from."

After finishing speaking, Lin Wei looked at "Old Mei". "So, sir, what are you doing during this hour?"

The man reacted quickly, and replied, "I'm tired from digging the ground, I'm taking a rest."

Mori snorted coldly and said, "Do you still remember the question I asked just now by the river?"

The man obviously didn't understand what question he was referring to.

"I ask you: when you found the body, he was floating on the water, didn't you? And your answer is 'yes'."

"You made two fatal mistakes. First: After a person drowns, within three or four hours, the body will not surface so quickly. So you said that you saw the dead floating on the water, obviously lie."

"Second: Before you answer 'yes', you make a nod first. This is a typical self-suggestion psychology. When the facts do not match what you are about to say, it is what we often call 'difference in mind' '. People subconsciously use some body movements to assist themselves, because these movements can largely conceal their guilty conscience. When a normal person answers an affirmative question, nodding and speaking are carried out simultaneously. For liars, the two Actions are out of sync."

Lao Mei didn't know what to say for a while, and before she knew it, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Sen Yu looked away from him wearily, "The answering time is over."

Only Lin Wei knew that when Sen Yu said this, it meant that his patience was exhausted and he didn't want to play games with them anymore.

Mori: "The clothes shouldn't be processed yet, right?"

After hearing these words, Lao Mei's body visibly shook.

Mori went on to say: "In such a short time, you have no time to deal with it. So stupidly, you carry such obvious clues on your body. This is like a thief who steals something and takes the stolen goods with you, showing off in the market."

At this time, the scout asked: "Professor Sen is referring to... what clues?"

"See for yourself, it's just behind his neck."

Everyone's eyes turned to the back of Lao Mei's neck, and saw a few cockleburs stuck to his collar.

Mori: "Cocklebur grows on the ground and sticks to people's trousers at most. The reason why it can stick to the neckline means that you once put your clothes close to the cocklebur plant. I think, when you pretended to be Sun Laoer The clothes and the water pants must be hidden in the same place. I have seen it just now, and there is only one place where cocklebur grows in this area."

Everyone's eyes followed his gaze, and saw a piece of dry grass more than ten meters ahead, and one or two cocklebur plants could be vaguely seen standing in it...

It was unusually eye-catching.

The result can be imagined.

The investigators found a coat and a pair of water pants in the withered grass... exactly the same as the one on Sun Laoer.In the end, Lao Mei's DNA was detected on the clothes, as well as the same algae and mud as the deceased.Lao Mei herself kept silent about this, let alone admitting that she was the murderer of Sun Lao Er.

However, under the rounds of shelling by the investigators, Lao Mei finally broke down Lao Mei's psychological defense, and Lao Mei finally confessed her crime.

Finally, the scout asked him the motive for the murder.

It turns out that the village will be demolished next year, and the government will pay for the demolition according to the land area of ​​each family.Lao Mei borrowed a piece of land from Sun Laoer's family in the early years, but after a long time, Lao Mei never returned the land to Sun Laoer.This time, after receiving the demolition notice from the government, Sun Lao Er wanted to ask him for the land back.Lao Mei's family didn't have much land, so they wanted the government to pay more for the demolition.He wanted to take the piece of land borrowed from Sun Laoer as his own.So he wanted to kill Sun Lao Er, and planned this... a murder plan that was thought to be seamless.

***

Since returning from fishing that day, it has been raining continuously in Yancheng.However, the past few days have been peaceful, and no murders have occurred.The rainy weather always gives people a restless and false peace.

On this day, Sen Yu was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a book, while Lin Wei was sitting at his desk, immersed in the computer...

Do not interfere with each other.

A few minutes later, Mori got up and went upstairs.

At this time, the mobile phone on the coffee table vibrated suddenly.It was Sen Yu's cell phone. Lin Wei looked at the bright light on the screen of the cell phone from a distance, and hesitated whether to pick it up for him.He thought to himself: Lu Lingfeng usually calls Senyu the most, and Lu Lingfeng usually calls him because of murder.

Thinking of this, Lin Wei got up and walked to the coffee table. He picked up his mobile phone, and the caller was indeed Lu Lingfeng.

Lin Wei pressed the answer button calmly, and Lu Lingfeng's resonant voice came from the receiver:

"Hey, do you have time? Bring your Assistant Lin and come to my place for hot pot tonight."

Lin Wei: "I'm Lin Wei...Professor Sen just went upstairs and left his phone downstairs..."

His tone returned to his usual submissiveness.

When he heard Lin Wei's voice, Lu Lingfeng was still a little surprised, but he quickly said, "It's Assistant Lin, it's okay, just send a message to Senyu. Let him come with you to eat hot pot at my place in the evening."

"Oh... well, I'll bring the words."

Lu Lingfeng: "There is one more thing, you can tell Senyu. I received news from the prison today that Ma Hejun in the floating corpse case offended someone in the prison, and was directly abolished. Prison When the guards found him, he was only half alive. He would be rescued in the afternoon and transferred to the intensive care unit. The doctor said that he was probably in a vegetable state, and his intelligence would be affected even if he woke up. Uh...simple It is very likely that you will become a fool.”

After hanging up the phone, Mori just came down from upstairs.

Mori: "Ling Feng?"

Lin Wei nodded, and then asked, "Ma Hejun was beaten into a vegetable in prison. You hired someone to do it, right?"

Sen Yu glanced at him lightly, with a calm expression: "It turns out that I am such a powerful existence in Mr. Lin Wei's heart."

Lin Wei smiled slightly, "You are Satan, it's not surprising that you have your eyeliner in prison."
