What Zhang Yu saw this time was almost worthless.Except for the words professor and cruise ship, which may be helpful for subsequent investigations, the others can only be said to be good or bad.

Fortunately, Zhang Yu didn't rely solely on this to find the murderer. Her biggest cheat was Sherlock Holmes.

Standing next to the corpse, Sherlock refused the plastic gloves that Sheriff Gordon tried to hand him, bent down, bowed his head, and started his inspection directly.

Although this area is not very remote, but because it is too close to the river bank and overgrown with weeds, almost no one will set foot here except for some idle wanderers or young couples who come here for fun and excitement.

But now, the many bent grass stalks around the body look unusual.Now the traces here and the location of the body parts can prove that this is the first crime scene.

Sherlock pulled out a piece of grass from the ground, carefully checked its flexibility, and silently calculated the physique of the murderer.Because the land here is not very wet and there are no clear enough footprints, we can only rely on this primitive method to roughly calculate the load-bearing capacity of the grass at that time.

It was a man who weighed almost 180 pounds.No, at least two of them.The deceased had been held for a long time, and there was nothing else to be brought here except a car.So there are at least two murderers working together to kill.

Looking at the scars on the edge of the corpse, the knife edge is smooth, and the angle is obliquely downward, with some curvature.The length of the knife seems to be limited, and there is an inconspicuous broken mark every twelve centimeters.Therefore, the murderer should be very good at using this tool, and may have dealt with many such dead people.

Carefully observe the overall shape of the corpse, and there are not many weapons that can cause this effect. There are only two that are the most suitable, one is a broad axe, and the other is a pig-killing knife specially designed for slaughterhouses.However, the length of the butcher's knife is wrong, so there is only one choice left: the broad axe.

If the blood flow of the deceased is added, Sherlock can directly conclude that the deceased was directly hacked to death with a broad ax after being knocked down to the ground by a skilled hand.As for why the deceased did not resist, it would probably be clear after the autopsy results came out. The deceased should have been fed some kind of drug that made him unresponsive.

Seeing that he couldn't see any more things, Sherlock stood up and asked the young and beautiful assistant behind him in a gentle tone: "Issa, tell me what you think. I want to hear the greatness from the goldfish." Opinions, maybe there will be surprises. Although I think the probability is about 0."

After all, it was outside, and Zhang Yu didn't think it was fun to argue with Sherlock. After taking a hard look at Sherlock, he acquiesced to his "goldfish" evaluation.

Following Sherlock's actions just now, she looked at the environment and corpses here, and after thinking about it, she raised her head and tentatively stated: "This should be the first scene where the dead were dismembered. According to the information in the previous reports, that Although the kidnapper had a lot of hatred for the dead, he was not psychopathic. The corpses were evenly distributed, and there were no obvious traces of palm contact, so it was impossible to cut the dead into pieces somewhere and then resuscitate them. Bring it here."

"The deceased's expression was flat, and he was in an unconscious state before he died. Perhaps he had been fed some kind of drug in advance. The autopsy should have the results at that time. The weapon used to kill the deceased was a very sharp felling axe. Under normal circumstances, only those who are engaged in forestry Or people in the fishing industry would buy and use it. But the wound marks on the corpse don’t look like a vendetta. If it was a vendetta, there should be a lot of bruises on the deceased’s body for venting. Obviously, this does not match the current condition of the deceased’s body. "

"Besides, the weight of the deceased is not light. If only the violinist was alone, it would be impossible to complete so many tasks. He has at least one accomplice to assist him, and even more."

"In short, I don't think the deceased's body can tell us any more information, and we can only make further judgments after the autopsy report. However, I insist that there is a possibility that the deceased did not have much connection with the violinist. The deceased only It's just a useful monkey chosen at random, as a means for a certain Gotham gang to show their power. I suggest that the police can secretly investigate the deceased's assets, some of which may be taken over by the forces behind it."

It was rare for Zhang Yu to talk so much at one time, and after he finished speaking, he felt a little uncomfortable in his throat, so he coughed twice.

Although Sherlock noticed Issa's discomfort, he didn't have the idea of ​​handing her hot water because of inertia. Instead, he raised his head and commented on Issa's reasoning just now.

"Prefect!"

Zhang Yu glanced at Sherlock with a half-smile, obviously not paying attention to his evaluation.Women can't be coaxed by compliments alone.

Fortunately, Director Gordon next to him didn't notice the eyebrow-eye lawsuit between the two consultants they invited, but first admired Issa's reasoning, and then consulted Detective Holmes: "Mr. Sherlock, do you have any questions?" Any other opinion?"

Sherlock shook his head and reminded him: "According to the data summarized from the files of the Gotham Police Department over the years, 80.00% of the wounding and homicide cases in downtown Gotham are due to gang fights or prisoners fleeing. It is mostly a stress killing. In fact, this murder case is also related to a dispute between gangsters. Therefore, the property investigation mentioned by Issa is still useful. But if you just want to find the murderer, I can only recommend you Cleaning up Gotham might be the only way to solve the case."

Sergeant Gordon shook his head bitterly.In all his years of life, he had never seen the hope of Gotham becoming a safe city.Even with Batman, Gotham has only slowed down its death.This is a sin city lying in the ashes.

As one of the fans of Sherlock Holmes, Director Gordon still trusts the judgment of the consulting detective.Although he really wanted to keep the two consultants to help, but now he couldn't find any other clues, so he had to call it a day and go back.

Fragmented body parts were packed into body bags, ready to be joined at the autopsy in the morgue.White lines were drawn around the crime scene and photographs were taken everywhere.The nearby policemen also began to move around, carrying out the next step.

Sherlock and Zhang Yu were the only two free guys, but due to their tough performance before, no one asked them to do anything, but consciously gave way to the exit.

Fortunately, Sherlock didn't plan to go back now, but let the young driver leave first. He planned to explore Gotham City at night with Issa.
