Wrongful Death Criminal Investigation

What needs to be explained has been explained, Chen Ju said: "Your team did it at the scene, so your team will do the preliminary case analysis."

Yu Ran, the captain of the first criminal investigation team, got up and walked to the multimedia display screen to stand still. The photos on the screen were very visually impactful. Four corpses were hanging on the beam. Their identities have been confirmed, and they are the residents of this house. They are the hostess Jiang Wenhui, her father Jiang Qiuyang, mother Zhao Mingyan, and Jiang Wenhui's ten-year-old daughter Yu Xinyu."

"Jiang Wenhui is currently an executive of a multinational company. She is 34 years old this year. The house at the scene of the crime is under Jiang Wenhui's name, and there are two cars under her name. Both Jiang Qiuyang and Zhao Mingyan are retired people's teachers. Her husband's name is Yu Zhixuan, and he owns a company, which has filed for bankruptcy, and they are currently planning to divorce."

Chen Ju asked, "Has the time of death been confirmed?"

于然道：“由于尸体长期处在一个低温环境，对死亡时间的判断造成了一定影响,目前只能将时间缩小在3-4天的范围。也就是7月9号7月10号之间。”

Qiu Shaoyang's attention was not on the multimedia screen, but was thinking about other issues.

The murderer must have his purpose in everything he does. Then the murderer adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner in the room to the lowest level to ensure that the body would not rot easily, thus affecting the police’s judgment on the time of the victim’s death. Is it to create an alibi or have ulterior motives? ?

It was just a photo of the scene, Qiu Shaoyang couldn't see anything, at least he didn't see what he wanted.

He also didn't want to listen to the analysis of the case by the barbara in front of him. The case is not under his control now, and even if he talks about it, it's useless.

He moved slightly and kicked Tang Yan.

Tang Yan was suddenly kicked by someone, and almost blurted out a bad word. He looked down at the good guy, a polished leather shoe almost blinded his eyes, and then there were straight suit pants. Look, Qiu Shaoyang was the only one on the scene who could afford such expensive leather shoes.

Tang Yan looked at Qiu Shaoyang resentfully, with an expression of why did you kick me, and found that Qiu Shaoyang didn't look at him at all, but looked at the case file in his hand, and suddenly felt a little bit stuffed.

He looked around and no one was paying attention to him, so he wanted to tease Qiu Shaoyang, and mouthed, "Do you want it?"

Qiu Shaoyang gave him a cold look.

Tang Yan pretended not to see it and continued to tease him.

Qiu Shaoyang kicked him again, this time it was a bit louder, obviously out of anger, and he didn't hold back.

Tang Yan didn't expect Qiu Shaoyang to make up for it again, and all the documents in his hand were lost and dropped all over the floor.

Qiu Shaoyang looked away, as if it wasn't him who did it.

Yu Ran glanced at Tang Yan and waited for him for a few seconds.

Tang Yan felt that he was ashamed. If he had known Qiu Shaoyang wanted it, he would have given it to him, so he wouldn't have come out like this. Although everyone didn't pay much attention to this, he still felt that it would be strange for him to make a small episode on such a serious occasion. of.

After picking up his own things, he stuffed them to Qiu Shaoyang, lest Qiu Shaoyang would kick him again later, he couldn't bear it.

Qiu Shaoyang got what he wanted as he wished, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and he began to look through the documents in Tang Yan's hand.

And all of this was seen by Ming Tang who was sitting diagonally across from them.

Mingtang found it a little funny, the behavior of the two of them was as childish as children.

Yuran blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

"Shaoyang, what do you think?" Chen Ju looked at Qiu Shaoyang with a benevolent gaze.

Qiu Shaoyang raised his head suddenly, everyone's eyes were on him, and he didn't feel anything unnatural.

Bureau Chen called him at this time, it was to give him a boost, and he was afraid that he would have a hard time in the Serious Crime Brigade in the future.After all, he has been away for many years, and he was parachuted into the Serious Crime Brigade as a consultant very suddenly. No matter how bad the people in the Serious Crime Brigade are, they are the elite among the elite. If he can't suppress people, no one will take him seriously. In the future, if he has any opinions or suggestions, no one will take them to heart.

However, Chen Bureau's consideration was obviously overstated. Qiu Shaoyang had already captured the hearts of all the police officers in the Serious Crime Brigade.

In the 7.13 case, Bureau Chen was the first to contact Qiu Shaoyang after seeing the case. He was the one who asked Qiu Shaoyang to join in the investigation of this case. 15 years ago, Chen Ju was the vice-captain for the case of hanging corpses by fans. He knew that the case of hanging corpses in slaughterhouses 30 years ago was a knot in Qiu Shenglin's heart, and he never solved it.If Qiu Shaoyang can solve this case, Qiu Shenglin can rest in peace under Jiuquan, which is a small thing he can do for his old partner.

Chen Ju and Qiu Shenglin were halfway partners, but they hit it off right away and they got along very well.Chen Ju was a few years older than Qiu Shenglin, so he was relatively more stable and careful.Qiu Shenglin belongs to those who dare to fight and break through, and the two are regarded as golden partners in the game.

When Qiu Shenglin was alive, he had a very high opinion of his partner.

After Qiu Shaoyang joined the team, Chen Ju took care of him as much as he could.

Under everyone's gaze, Qiu Shaoyang closed the documents and accepted Chen Ju's kindness: "There are indeed some discoveries. The standard for us to identify a series of cases must be that these cases have similarities, but I want to refute the police officer's statement just now." A point of view."

"My name is Yu Ran."

Qiu Shaoyang nodded towards Yu Ran: "According to your analysis, the 7.13 case, the case of hanging corpses from fans 15 years ago, and the case of hanging corpses from slaughterhouses 30 years ago belong to the same murderer. I don't agree with that."

"You mean, these cases were not committed by the same person?" Yu Ran was slightly surprised by Qiu Shaoyang's conclusion.

Qiu Shaoyang nodded: "Of all the people sitting there, only Chen Ju, me, and Police Officer Cheng have seen the scene of the fan hanging corpse case 15 years ago. At that time, I insisted that there was someone behind the fan hanging corpse case manipulating the case. The reason is that the murderer himself does not have the ability to carefully plan a murder, he is just the executor chosen by the murderer. Whether it is a case 30 years ago or a case 15 years ago, what they have in common is not that they hang corpses, but that they Emotions transmitted outward. In the case of the slaughterhouse, the murderer dismembered the victim and hung it to mark the weight. Correspondingly, the butcher marked the weight of the pork after slaughtering the pig. For the murderer, the people he killed and the butcher killed There is no difference between pigs. The process of the murderer dismembering the corpse is venting his anger. The scene of the fan hanging corpse case can be described as horrific. The victim’s hands and feet were cut off, and blood was sprinkled all over the room. Compared with a slaughterhouse, hanging The corpse case can be said to be a massacre, for the executor, it is indeed a vent of anger, but for those who manipulate everything behind it, it is a feast."

Qiu Shaoyang paused and said: "I may not use the word "feast" properly, but for the murderer behind it, what he experienced from this case was pleasure. He changed from the role of an executor to the director behind the scenes, I admire everything that happened from behind. From the point of view of the modus operandi, the fan hanging corpse case is not as cruel as the slaughterhouse hanging corpse case. From other perspectives, his modus operandi is upgrading, and the murderer is no longer satisfied with the pleasure of killing himself. His physical pleasure has changed to spiritual pleasure. No matter which case it is, there is the emotion of venting anger."

"Looking at the 7.13 case again, firstly, the scene was too clean, and secondly, the victim himself was not severely tortured. Judging from the situation at the scene, the murderer's purpose is very clear, not to vent his anger, but to want them all to die. Whether it is 30 Years ago or 15 years ago, the victims died after being tortured, but the July 7.13 case we are seeing now is obviously not. What he did was completely superfluous.”

Chen Ju understood Qiu Shaoyang's meaning, "Then what is your opinion?"

"The key to solving the 7.13 case lies in the Suzhou yard. This sign did not appear in the fan hanging corpse case. The Suzhou yard is the symbol of the slaughterhouse case. The police did not disclose the details of the case to the outside world, but it does not mean that no one knows. Before the police arrived, the scene had already suffered serious damage, and many brave people had entered the crime scene. The two points of Suzhou code and bloodletting and this case have no practical significance in the 7.13 case. Paying tribute to the murderer who hung his body in the slaughterhouse."

"Imitating killing and paying tribute to the murderer are completely two concepts. The former focuses on imitating the killing method, while the latter focuses on paying tribute based on a certain behavior."

Qiu Shaoyang paused, leaving time for everyone to digest, and continued after half a minute: "I think the murderer in this case is a male, with a height between 170-180, a medium build, and an age between 35 and 50." He appeared near the scene of the slaughterhouse crime 30 years ago. This person is well educated and has a decent job. There should be a long-standing grievance between him and the victim. I suggest you investigate the people around the victim.”

Lu Changfeng approached Mingtang and whispered, "There are still two brushes."

Mingtang was noncommittal.

After Qiu Shaoyang sat down, he stopped speaking.

It was a little awkward standing there.

Bureau Chen told him to sit down before he sat down.He didn't feel that Yu Ran was not good enough, but Yu Ran didn't understand the old cases back then.And Qiu Shaoyang is indeed like a walking cheat.The angle of view of the problem has always been tricky.

After the meeting, the criminal investigation team [-] withdrew first.

Mingtang took the serious crime brigade back to his site to sort out the materials he just took over, and planned to go to the scene again later.

Qiu Shaoyang was invited by Chen Ju to drink tea in the office.

There are many photos hanging on the wall opposite Chen Ju's desk, which are the award-winning photos he kept when Zeng Jin was in the Serious Crime Brigade.There was Qiu Shenglin in these photos, and Qiu Shaoyang couldn't help feeling sour when he saw it. His uncle had been away from him for too long.

Chen Ju followed his gaze, and his eyes became sad, "It's been 11 years."

It has been 11 years since Qiu Shenglin passed away.

He said: "Today I saw you sitting where your uncle used to sit. I was in a trance for a moment, thinking that he had come back."

Qiu Shaoyang looked away before his eyes became sore, and smiled lightly at what Chen Ju said, but there were crystal clear tears in his eyes.

"Sit down, don't just stand." Chen Ju greeted, ready to make a cup of tea for Qiu Shaoyang.

Qiu Shaoyang quickly said: "There is no need for tea, I don't like to drink it."

"Then I'll make you a cup of coffee? Only instant."

"No need." Qiu Shaoyang said, "I think people from the Serious Crime Squad will return to the scene for a second investigation later, and I want to go with you too. I won't be staying with you for long."

Chen Ju didn't say anything more: "A glass of boiled water is always fine."

Qiu Shaoyang didn't shirk anymore.

Bureau Chen handed him a glass of boiled water and sat down: "You have taken photos with the members of the Serious Crime Squad several times. The tall one is Ming Tang, the son of Shicheng Mingyao."

"I know this, I have talked with Ming Tang a few times before."

"How do you feel about him?"

Qiu Shaoyang said: "Very good, capable of doing things and good at thinking."

"He was just transferred from the Shicheng anti-drug detachment, and no one dared to use him. Don't look at this kid as young, and he has no fewer awards than me."

Qiu Shaoyang was a little surprised: "So powerful?"

Chen Ju said: "People gave away the nickname Walking Police Dog because he was so good that he was targeted by people from drug cartels. He was transferred to our bureau to do criminal investigation."

This was similar to Qiu Shaoyang's guess, so he was not surprised.

Chen Ju said: "Don't look at his background in drug control, he is not inferior in criminal investigation."

"His team deputy Lu Changfeng, although he has the face of a playboy, is absolutely lacking in ability. He graduated from the capital police academy with a major in criminal investigation. He was only transferred to our city bureau in [-]."

Qiu Shaoyang's eyes lit up, and he had a vague guess in his heart.

Bureau Chen didn't say it clearly, but the meaning behind the words was that, "If you have any problems, you can come to me, and I will do my best to help you solve them. As for these two boys, you can also help me teach them a little bit more, so that they can learn from them too." Learn your way of solving crimes."

Qiu Shaoyang waved his hand, "I don't dare to teach you, I will communicate with them more."

Qiu Shaoyang's cell phone vibrated, and it was a message from Tang Yan: [Let's go first, Mingtang is waiting for you in the parking lot! 】

Qiu Shaoyang turned off his cell phone and stood up, "Ju Chen, then I'll go first, they have already set off to the scene."

"Okay, if you have any questions, just call me."

Bureau Chen sent Qiu Shaoyang out the door, Qiu Shaoyang went downstairs quickly, Mingtang's car was parked at the door, he quickened his pace, walked down the stone steps, and knocked on Mingtang's car window.

Mingtang put down the car window, pressed the unlock button, and Qiu Shaoyang got into the car, "Sorry for keeping you waiting."

"Not long."

Thinking of Chen Ju's entrustment, Qiu Shaoyang asked, "What do you think about this case?"

Mingtang was silent for a long time. When Qiu Shaoyang thought he didn't hear his words, Mingtang said: "I agree with your thinking. The murderer has a clear purpose. The murderer deliberately lowered the temperature in the room to affect the police's judgment on the time of death. Trying to forge an alibi. I think starting with the time of death should pay off."

Qiu Shaoyang hummed, a little disappointed, that's not what he wanted to hear.

Chen Ju was able to mention Mingtang to this position, he must have his own advantages.

But what he said just now, not to mention Mingtang, even an ordinary criminal policeman could have figured it out, and it was true that he didn't know how to continue this topic.

He couldn't help thinking why Mingtang was perfunctory with him like this?

Are you afraid that he will take the credit?According to his understanding of Mingtang, it shouldn't be.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that he doesn't know much about Ming Tang, at most it's just a few acquaintances, maybe they are not even friends in Ming Tang's heart.

Taking a step back, he solved the case, and the credit does not go to him. He is not a police officer, and at most he will be rewarded.

So, what did he do to make Mingtang treat him like this?

Qiu Shaoyang couldn't help recalling the details of every time he met Mingtang. He can guarantee 200% that he has never sinned against Mingtang.

However, the truth is that Qiu Shaoyang thought too much, and Mingtang was thinking about Qiu Shaoyang's analysis in the conference room today, trying to look at the case from Qiu Shaoyang's perspective.

Mingtang was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice Qiu Shaoyang's state. After he sorted out Qiu Shaoyang's thoughts, the car had already arrived downstairs at the scene of the crime.

Only then did he notice that it seemed that Qiu Shaoyang hadn't said a word since he finished answering Qiu Shaoyang's question.

"Sorry, I thought things were too involved just now."

Qiu Shaoyang shook his head, "Is it here?"

"Yes, the crime scene is on the 26th floor." Ming Tang loosened his seat belt and turned off the car to get off.

Qiu Shaoyang followed closely behind.

After locking the car, Mingtang and Qiu Shaoyang walked into the building together. Mingtang had long legs and walked very fast. He took two steps and Qiu Shaoyang took three steps. When Mingtang finished walking the steps, he found that Qiu Shaoyang was still on the steps.

Mingtang stopped in his tracks, and continued walking inside when people arrived.

The receptionist downstairs saw them, stood up and asked, "Hi, who are you looking for?"

Mingtang showed his police officer ID, "The scene of the crime on the 26th floor."

Qiu Shaoyang noticed a brochure on the table at the front desk, stepped forward and asked, "Is this the registration form for daily visitor information?"

The front desk nodded: "Yes."

Their place is a high-end community, each building is equipped with security and front desk services, and there are cleaners who are responsible for cleaning the environment of the entire building on a regular basis, which can be seen from the environment of their community.

"Can you show me?"

Ming Tang said before the front desk could answer, "He is one of our own."

Ming Tang originally wanted to say 'he is also a policeman', but he changed the term considering Qiu Shaoyang's Zeng Jin's experience.

The front desk handed the booklet to Qiu Shaoyang, and Qiu Shaoyang turned to the 9th and 10th for two days. The register records are quite detailed, what time did the person come, how many people are male or female, ID number and contact information are all available However, no one visited Jiang Wenhui's family at the time of the incident.

Qiu Shaoyang put down the brochure, and the front desk gave them a card from the card slot, and said, "We need to swipe the card to take the elevator here."

Mingtang took it, and Qiu Shaoyang asked: "Since this is the case, have you ever lost your card? Or has anyone replaced your card with you?"

The front desk said: "Someone will make up the card every now and then. This is a normal phenomenon, and we have long been used to it."

"Could you please give me a list of the cards that have been replaced in the past six months, as well as their card swiping records?"

"it is good."

These are all registered, and they can just copy them out.

Qiu Shaoyang swiped his card to enter the corridor, and came to the elevator. There are 4 elevators in this building, two on the left and two on the right. There are also two safety passages, which are next to the elevators on both sides. It is indeed a high-end residential area.

Mingtang pressed the elevator, and the elevator came up from the basement floor, and there were several people standing inside, holding tools and wearing safety helmets.

"Go up now?" Mingtang asked Qiu Shaoyang.

Qiu Shaoyang nodded, and the two walked into the elevator together.

Qiu Shaoyang noticed that these workers had a card hanging around their necks, and their work ID cards were pinned to their left chests. "Is your card also used to enter and exit this building?"

Several workers looked at each other, and one of them said, "Yes."

Qiu Shaoyang took out his own card and compared it with the one hanging around the worker's neck. It looked a little different.

Mingtang also noticed this.

When the workers saw the floor they were going to, they asked, "Are you the police?"

Mingtang and Qiu Shaoyang looked at each other. None of them had superficial identities, nor did they have any features that could prove their identities. How did these workers know?

The worker may have seen their doubts and said, "There is a dead person on the 26th floor. No one goes to the 26th floor now, except the police."

Mingtang said: "Aren't there other residents on the 26th floor?"

The worker was visibly taken aback.

Ming Tang smiled slightly: "But you are right, we are indeed the police."

"Are you doing interior decoration?" Qiu Shaoyang asked.

"Yes." The worker said: We are responsible for painting the walls, and others are responsible for the rest.

Then they were silent all the way, Mingtang and Qiu Shaoyang got out of the elevator from the 26th floor, he noticed that the floor the workers were going to was the 32nd floor, and the highest floor in this community was the 32nd floor.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, Qiu Shaoyang could smell the faint smell of blood in the air, which made his body stiffen involuntarily.

Mingtang walked out two steps to see that he was still in place, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Qiu Shaoyang swallowed, and walked towards Mingtang.

The crime scene was at the other end of the corridor, the door was cordoned off, and two police officers were in charge of guarding the perimeter.

Mingtang asked them for gloves, masks and shoe covers, but saw Qiu Shaoyang standing far away.

He walked over, "Is there something wrong with your pale face?"

Qiu Shaoyang leaned his back against the wall, "It's okay, it's just that I suddenly feel dizzy, it may be hypoglycemia."

As he spoke, he took the mask and shoe covers that Ming Tang handed over.

"Are you sure you're all right?" Ming Tang saw that he was breaking out in a cold sweat, as if he was all right.

Qiu Shaoyang nodded, "It's okay, it will be fine after a while."

Mingtang summoned the vigilant police, drew two hundred-yuan bills and handed them to him, saying, "Go and buy some water, and distribute it to the brothers."

He looked at Qiu Shaoyang, "Buy you some milk?"

Qiu Shaoyang shook his head, "Water will do."

"Then let's buy water." Ming Tang said to the policeman, keeping his eyes on Qiu Shaoyang.

Qiu Shaoyang smeared outside for a minute or two before walking towards the scene of the crime.

His sense of smell is more sensitive than ordinary people, and he smelled the smell of blood inside before he even walked to the door. Before the case was solved, everything at the scene remained the same except for the corpse.
