Criminal Investigation: Satan's Forest

Mori put on his gloves and picked up a small white medicine bottle placed on the bedside table.It can be judged from the short text after the "indication" on the bottle - this is a kind of medicine that heart patients often take.

There was a wastebasket on the side of the bed, and there were several sheets of toilet paper that were obviously used and pulled into balls.

He moved to the end of the bed, and saw Yan Ming use tweezers to put the women's underwear on the floor into the evidence bag.When Yan Ming got up, Sen Yu handed him the small medicine bottle in his hand.

When going downstairs, Mori found that Lin Wei had already entered the hall.Standing there alone, different from the busyness of the people around him, he obviously seemed to stay out of it, but no one noticed him.

Sen Yu withdrew his gaze and walked to the side of the corpse, the strong stench made him frown slightly.

"Is the time of death determined?"

Xu Jinyan got up and responded: "I measured the rectal temperature, and there is not much difference between the body temperatures of the two corpses. Excluding the interference of various factors, I estimate that the time of death of the two deceased is between 02:30 am and [-]:[-] today. between."

"In addition to the internal injuries caused by the high fall, the female deceased also had multiple stab wounds on her body. In addition, there were several defensive wounds of varying degrees on the palms of her arms. It is preliminarily estimated that they came from the same knife. That is, in the hands of the male deceased. The paring knife I had. I found a small piece of ileum in a pool of blood upstairs..."

As he said that, Xu Jinyan squatted next to the male corpse, and continued, "Look...the male deceased suffered massive bleeding from the mouth and nose, as well as broken and exposed joints, fractures in the skull and chest cavity, all of which were obvious internal injuries from a high fall. No serious wounds were found on the outside of her thoracic and abdominal cavity, so it is certain that the small section of ileum came from the dead woman's body."

After listening to Xu Jinyan's narration, Mori quickly completed the fragments one by one in his mind...

Lu Lingfeng came over, "How is it? Judging from the current situation at the scene, what's your opinion on the nature of the case?"

Mori, "As we have seen, the dead man Yan Guojun stabbed his wife with a knife in the corridor, and then pushed her down from a high altitude. Then he jumped from the upstairs again and fell to his death."

Just as Lu Lingfeng was about to say something, Senyu hurriedly interrupted and continued: "If you want to ask his motive, I'm sorry, but I don't know for now. However, there is a lot of evidence at the scene to prove that Yan Guojun and his wife have a harmonious marriage and a good sex life. Harmony. Even before killing his wife, the two had sexual intercourse. Of course, during the sexual intercourse, both parties were voluntary, and neither party showed any intention of coercion. So, what caused Yan Guojun to suddenly raise the knife, Killing his wife in an extremely brutal way..."

Senyu paused, and then said: "The answer...is very clear."

Lu Lingfeng said solemnly: "Drugs."

"Just like the previous case, the key to solving the case is the motive of committing the crime." As he spoke, Mori paced around, looking around, as if he was looking for something.

Lu Lingfeng asked him, "What are you looking for?"

Mori didn't respond to him.

Lu Lingfeng walked away awkwardly.

Afterwards, Mori came to the kitchen alone.

It seems that no police officers have stepped into the kitchen yet.

This is a typical Chinese-style kitchen, very spacious and tidy inside. It can be seen that the nanny usually works very hard.After scanning around, Mori's eyes fell on several water glasses on the counter.

The water cup is made of glass. If you look closely, you can find a unique texture pattern engraved around the cup.His attention is not on these patterns, but on the water stains in the cup, which is very special compared with other cups with dry walls.

According to the large amount of physical evidence left over from the scene, as long as there are several years of experience in handling cases, it is not difficult to reconstruct the scene.In Moriyu's view, all cases that seem to be clear at a glance are constructed by interweaving vague and unclear clues.Under the dark layer, there are some dark and cruel truths hidden.But this case, just like this water glass, after being covered with water stains, still looks transparent, pure material - but it gives people an illusion close to 'transparency'.

***

Among the crowd, Lin Wei's thin figure is still not the most eye-catching one, and will always be ignored.However, when Mori walked out of the kitchen with an indifferent face, the first thing he saw was Lin Wei.

Lin Wei was standing by the side of the fireplace in the hall, staring at the things on the wall, seemingly lost in thought.However, he soon noticed the breath behind him.

He knew it was Senyu.

Lin Wei said as if no one was there: "I have never been able to understand that some people would put their faith in some ghosts and monsters, it is simply unbelievable."

Senyu asked, "What is your belief?"

Lin Wei smiled: "Are you sure you want to know?"

Mori looked down at him, and replied indifferently: "I want to know."

A vague smile flashed across Lin Wei's eyes, "My faith... I can't find the right words to define it yet. A nihilistic spirit, it can be said that it is my present, the most supreme exist."

For this answer, Mori Yu didn't respond at all, he looked cold, turned his eyes away, and turned to look at what Lin Wei was looking at just now.

It was a pitch-black wooden box. There were some complex patterns engraved around the wooden box. There were a few dark red textures around it, extending all the way to the opening on the front side of the wooden box... Obviously it was a shrine. In the huge living room It's not eye-catching, and it matches the situation at this moment, giving people the illusion that it seals some kind of mysterious power.

"Looking at the size of this box, there may be a head hidden inside." Lin Wei stepped forward, stretched out a hand towards the shrine, and stopped in midair.He turned around and asked tentatively, "I'm going to open it, do you have any objection?"

Mori: "I didn't expect Mr. Lin Wei to be so curious. So last time, it was also because of this ridiculous reason?"

Hearing this, Lin Wei didn't realize it for a while, but when he saw the mocking look in Sen Yu's eyes, he, who had always been on his mind, understood the implication of Sen Yu's words.

This reminds me of the last case. At the first scene of the crime, Lin Wei noticed that there was a similar shrine in the living room of Liu Bingyan's villa.He thought he was the only one who noticed it, but he didn't expect Mori to notice it too.

Not enough... He even saw him secretly opening the shrine out of curiosity while others were not paying attention.

Ignoring his gaze, Senyu stepped behind Lin Wei, raised his hand over his head, and opened the shrine.

—It was empty inside.

Lin Wei shrugged, "Wow, it's really disappointing, there is nothing. So... it means that what they believe in is air?"

"Impossible." Saying that, Mori wiped out a piece of light gray cloth from the top of the shrine.

Lin Wei glanced at it, and saw a strange and weird pattern painted on the palm-sized cloth with dark red paint.It looks like a skull pattern... no, it should be said to be a skull pattern.It's just that the circle around the head is decorated with another kind of graphics.

"How could you hide such a thing in a shrine?"

Mori handed the cloth to the side of his nose, sniffed it lightly, and said, "The pattern on it is drawn with human blood and a special dye. This dye is rarely used in daily life. It is extracted from a special plant that emits a corpse-like odor. As far as I know, this kind of plant is rarely found in China, and so far I have only seen one."

Lin Wei said, "A plant that smells like corpses? What kind of plant is this, and where did you see it?"

"If you're interested, I'd be happy to show you. But...not now."

As he spoke, Mori put the cloth in his hand into the evidence bag, and stuffed it into the inside pocket of the suit.Judging by his appearance, he didn't intend to hand over the things to the trace inspection department.

Lin Wei: "What do you keep this thing for? Is it related to the case?"

Mori glanced at him, "Not sure if it's related to the case yet."

At this time, Lu Lingfeng came over.

"Leave for a while, see you in the bureau."

After finishing speaking, Mori turned around and walked towards the gate of the villa.

Before getting into the car, Lin Wei guessed where Senyu was going—Liu Bingyan's house.But the car unexpectedly stopped in front of a porridge shop, Lin Wei followed him out of the car without asking any questions.

He knew that Mori was a person who was guided by rationality and subjective thinking before making any decision.But through this period of getting along, he found that Mori occasionally did things beyond logic.

Just like now, this man who always talked about the concept of time actually spent more than ten minutes eating a hearty breakfast with himself?

Lin Wei, who has always been good at using wordless sensory experience to judge people's true thoughts, only felt that this scene was really full of drama.

Until they arrived at Liu Bingyan's house, there was no conversation between the two of them.

Unsurprisingly, Mori went to the scene of the first case in the previous case just to confirm whether there was the same piece of fabric with a strange pattern in the shrine of Liu Bingyan's family.However, when Senyu found a piece of almost identical fabric from the shrine of Liu Bingyan's family, neither of them was very surprised.

Mori turned on the light in the living room and spread out a piece of fabric under the light. He originally wanted to carefully study the patterns around the skull pattern that resembled symbols.As a result, he caught a glimpse of a strange scene inadvertently.

Lin Wei also had a piece in his hand, and under the light, he also saw a creepy scene.

The head and eyes that were originally painted in the center of the fabric are very rough, and at first glance they appear to have closed eyes.As a result, when the light penetrated through the fine holes in the fabric, a shadow appeared in the position of the head's eyes, and upon closer inspection, a 'pair of eyes' could be seen.At the beginning, due to the strength of the materials used, it was not easy for the naked eye to detect the existence of those 'eyes'.But at this time, with the lighting, shadows and lines, these eyes are particularly prominent.

Lin Wei took a second look, only to feel a little uncomfortable.He always felt that the 'eyes' on the skull pattern were staring at him, and also showed a weird smile... He didn't realize it until he realized it later.

"There is such a strange thing at the scene of the two cases... I bet, it can't be a coincidence." Lin Wei said, trying to draw her attention away from the pattern.

Moriyu's chiseled face wore a determined smile.

"It is clear that there are many links between the two cases."
