Chapter 381 Clues

The Yizhuang is three miles east of the city.

As soon as I arrived at the charity village, I smelled a rotten stinking smell.

Although it was late autumn and the weather was getting colder, and the corpses stored in the charity house were usually treated with lime, spices, etc., which was as strong as the smell, which was Fan and Zhao. This was the first time that they encountered them. In a morgue, there were seven corpses stored in total.

Rich businessman, monk, beggar, prostitute, doctor, old woman, and a girl.

Qin Xing couldn't stop his emotions when he saw the girl's body. He came to the girl's side, trembling all over, clenched his fists tightly, and kept hitting the pillar. Seeing this, Fan Xiaodao asked someone to take him out to calm his mood.

If anyone else could not bear it even seeing her sister's death so miserable.

The death is basically similar. The throat is killed by a blow, the eyes are dug out, and the internal organs are hollowed out. It can be concluded that the same person is doing it. However, after the other party kills people, why should they empty their internal organs? Is it venting anger? Is it pervert? Or is there another picture?

The two compared the autopsy form and decided to inspect the bodies one by one.

At this time, Fan Xiaodao was no longer the boy who had seen Sun Juncao dissect the body and vomited. After experiencing countless cases, he had long turned a blind eye to it. With his Zhao Xing's martial arts, he could have long been able to hold his breath for a long time, and use the internal force in his dantian to make internal breathing.

The first victim was a wealthy businessman. On the first day of September, he was killed in his bedroom at home. The next morning, he was discovered by a maid and immediately reported to the official. The last victim was a prostitute. He died three days ago, and it was September 13 that he died in Piaoxiangyuan in the city. He was found in a dry well.

In the seven cases, two or three days later, the murderer committed consecutive crimes in the city. Especially recently, three yamen runners in Changping have patrolled the streets almost day and night, but the murderer is still as if he is in a no-man state.

After the two of them finished checking, Fan Xiaodao said: "No."

Zhao Xing asked, "What's wrong?"

Fan Xiaodao said, "These seven people seem to die the same way, but they have corpses, but they are obviously different from others." He pointed to the girl's corpse, "The rest of the corpses and internal organs were dug out, but Qin Lian's liver was completely preserved and was black all over. If you guessed it wrong, you should have died of a very poison."

Zhao Xing took the silver needle and searched it. As Fan Xiaodao said, Qin Xing's sister Qin Lianren died of a severe poison. "It seems that there is more than one murderer."

He checked carefully again. Sure enough, although she was also broken, the rest of the people seemed to be cut open by animal claws, and her wound was obviously a knife wound. Moreover, although their internal organs were hollowed out, the broken meat, minced meat, and incisions were very neat, which was different from others.

Fan Xiaodao said: "Don't tell Qin Xing about this."

"We temporarily believe that it is two cases, but why is the murderer poaching the internal organs?"

Collect? Eat? Or hunt for curiosity?

It is impossible to determine yet.

However, one thing can be concluded that the murderer did not seem to stop at all.

The killing continues.

Fan Xiaodao said: "The murderer is still lurking in the city and is waiting for an opportunity to take action, but when will he take action?"

"September 17!"

"today?"

Zhao Xingdao, "I checked the dates of the murder of the deceased, the first day of the first day of the lunar month, the third day of the lunar month, the fifth day of the lunar month, the seventh day of the lunar month, the other people's death dates are all prime numbers. If the murderer wants to continue committing crimes, it should be tonight!"

"Why did the murderer choose this? And he killed someone randomly?"

"Only all the cases I have encountered over the years have motives. A deep logic is hidden behind the purpose of the operation of a serial killer like this. I hope my guess is wrong, otherwise, there will be another victim today and we can do nothing."

After coming out of the morgue, the guard handed each person a cup of sour plum soup and swept the two of them with dogwood leaves, which meant to remove the dark and obscene energy that was contaminated by the body. "I hope the two adults can solve the case as soon as possible and bring the murderer to justice."

Fan Xiaodao asked, "Is there anything unusual recently?"

The guard said, "There have been a lot of wild cats nearby appearing more frequently than usual." He whispered, "I heard that the murderer who killed these people is not human!"

"Oh?" Fan Xiaodao saw that he seemed to know something, and asked, "How can you tell me?"

"I drank with people yesterday. They said that the night the beggar was killed on the street, Liu Laoliu, the city's killer, was fighting against Geng nearby. He had seen the murderer, who said he was a monster with a cat face and human body, and he was almost scared. Now there are people in the city that say that a wild cat became a spirit and killed people."

Fan Xiaodao asked Qin Xing, "Have you ever heard of the beating people reporting the case?"

Qin Xing shook his head and said, "No."

If this clue is true, then Liu Laoliu may be a witness to one of the murder cases. The investigation of the case will never proceed as planned, because there will never be a step-by-step procedure, but will adapt to the clues.

When investigating a case, it is not about how smart it is, or how good it is to reason, but about experience, experience and knowledge, carefulness, perseverance, and the spirit of perseverance and never giving up. Many cases, even if there is only a little clue, may be breakthroughs as long as you pursue them relentlessly. However, more often, you have done a lot of useless work. Every year, you accumulate a large number of outstanding cases.

"Go and ask Liu Laoliu!"

Qin Xing brought the two to Huaimingfang update shop and learned from Mr. Li that Liu Laoliu had asked for leave and had not been here for several days.

Zhao Xingdao: "Then go home."

Liu Laoliu is an old bachelor. He lives in a thatched hut south of Guanyin Temple in the south of the city. He has no relatives in the city. His only hobby is drinking. The general A takes three people to go there, but he sees that the hut is dilapidated and has no yard. There is an open-air stove at the door, which is covered with dust. It is obvious that it has not been fired for a long time.

There was a skinny old yellow dog tied at the door. When everyone saw them, the dog barked.

The door of the house is closed.

General A came forward and knocked on the door. After calling for a long time, Li Man did not respond.

Just as everyone was about to leave, they suddenly heard a jingle sound from the thatched hut. Qin Xing stepped forward, pulled out the knife, opened the door bolt, and pushed the door in. Under the dim light, a middle-aged man was curled up on the bed, trembling all over. When he saw everyone, he was frightened and shouted: "Don't kill me!"

The general said, "Lao Liu, these are the generals from the capital. I have a few words to ask you."

Liu Laoliu shouted: "I don't know anything and I don't see anything. Don't kill me!"

He seemed to be frightened, and was already unconscious at this moment.

Fan Xiaodao came to his bed and asked, "Liu Laoliu, we are the constables of Liushumen in the capital. We are here to investigate several murders that have come to the city recently. On July 11, six days ago, you were fighting in Huaimingfang. A beggar was killed. Have you ever seen anything unusual?"

Liu Laoliu said: "I'm killing people, they're all blood!"

"Have you seen the murderer look?"

Liu Laoliu said: "It's a cat demon! Yes, it's a cat demon, as big as a calf. No, it's like a person!"

The general said: "Lao Liu, think it through before talking, don't talk nonsense!"

Liu Laoliu pointed at the general armor and said, "It's you, you killed it!"

The general A was so angry that he cursed, "You guy, what are you talking nonsense! Two adults, this guy is crazy!"

Liu Laoliu was talking nonsense. Fan Xiaodao tried several times, but the other party ignored him and spoke nonsense. He still looked like he had no idea. He had to give up, "Find him a doctor and prescribe some medicines to calm the mind. When his emotions stabilize, he will ask questions."

Nothing was found.

The two decided to act separately and visit the crime scene and the victim's home.

Although there are records in the file, most of them are done by the constables under Qin Xing, and many of them are perfunctory.

Fan Xiaodao was assigned to wealthy businessmen, monks, and beggars. He led the way with the general aristocratic family in Huaimingfang, and Zhao Xing and Qin Xing, and went to investigate the rest.

Fan Xiaodao and Li Zhengjia first came to the wealthy business.

The master died at home, and two white banners were hung at the door of the house.

Since the case was not solved, the body was still stored in the charity village and the family did not have a funeral. He was the first to be killed, and more than half a month has passed. The depressing atmosphere in the family was not that strong. The whole family was mourning, the servants and servants were all busy. The wife was a vain and did not come forward, so the manager went out to receive it.

The wealthy businessman was killed in the study.

When we arrived at the scene, all doors and windows were sealed with six doors.

The manager recalled, "That day, the master went out to drink, and it was already the second day when he came back. The lady slept lightly. In order not to disturb her, he went to the study to bed. I made a bowl of sobering soup. After the master drank it, he went to bed. Who would have thought... cough!"

Thinking of the tragic situation that day, the manager also looked sad.

"I was lying next door that night. I didn't notice this happening!"

Fan Xiaodao looked around and saw that the murderer broke into the door. There was a thin trace on the door bolt, which should be something sharp to open the door bolt. There was a small stall of blood on the bed and a large pool of blood on the ground. It should have been killed by the victim while he was sleeping, and dragged it to the ground, opening his belly, digging out his eyes and internal organs.

There are no signs of fighting or resistance, nor are there any loss of property.

All victims are the same, so where have the eyes and internal organs gone?

Fan Xiaodao said: "Butler, please recall carefully. One month before the accident, your master's whereabouts, travel records and visitor records."

The manager said: "I take care of the master on weekdays, and I have recorded all his itineraries."

The manager turned around and went out. Soon after, he got a booklet and Fan Xiaodao copied it. The victim was a wealthy businessman in the city, and his daily itinerary was very full. He had to eat, socialize, participate in activities, hold meetings, collect rent, and negotiate business. He almost went on without stopping. He had to find out the clues from these itineraries, and the workload was quite large.

Fan Xiaodao asked again, "What did you hear on the night of the accident?"

The manager said: "We smelled a rotten smell."

"Roasted smell?"

"Yes, that smell is extremely smelly. I have smelled it once in my life and will never forget it. After smelling it, I fell asleep soon after. Even the man who slept so lightly until dawn!"

Fan Xiaodao took the notes and said, "The smell of rotten? The drug?"
