North American Detective: I am proficient in all kinds of American Iai

"Daisy was taken from the precinct?"

Dean thought it was absurd, thinking he had heard it wrong.

Although Daisy is an inconspicuous clerk in the police department, this kind of cross-departmental taking of people away is often very troublesome. To put it bluntly, even if Daisy really has a problem, the person who came should be from the Ministry of Internal Affairs people, not people from other departments.

It's about the purity of the 'organization'.

It sounds funny.

But that's what it is.

Otherwise, those big bosses in the police department are also worried about being slandered.

So no matter what reason Daisy was arrested, it would definitely be very troublesome.

Dean quickly asked Harry to contact his acquaintances in the police station to find out who the person who took Daisy was, and asked him to contact Old Hunter by the way.

Daisy is Old Hunter's subordinate after all, and the person who took Daisy away might explain the situation to Old Hunter.

hang up the phone.

Dean briefly told Lawrence on the side about the situation.

Lawrence didn't have the political consciousness like Dean: "Dean, I've been a policeman for so many years, except I saw the gang of wolves from the Ministry of Internal Affairs arresting my own people, that is, I heard people from the FBI and people from the Drug Enforcement Administration in the early years. Together, could Daisy be taken away by someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Dean shook his head: "Harry said that the chief of the branch also showed up at the time. This matter is not so simple. Let's go to the next location first, deal with the case and then go back to investigate Daisy."

"FK!"

Lawrence cursed, took away his emotions and drove to the next location.

They just learned a more important piece of information from the young man in the office of Eden Consulting Company: three days ago, his senior said that he had received a big deal and was going to call his cronies to his home to discuss it carefully.

After that, the young man could no longer contact his senior.

Facing the threat of the two big men, the young man told the address of his senior very straightforwardly.

After more than 20 minutes.

Dean and Lawrence came outside a villa.

This is an old suburban garden villa with a garden of about [-] square meters. There is a swimming pool and a small orchard in it. There is also a leisure area where you can see swings and barbecue tables. The overall price does not look cheap. .

American labor is expensive.

The annual maintenance fee for such a place is probably tens of thousands of dollars.

"Pimping is real money."

Lawrence was not in a good mood because of Daisy's arrest. Seeing this big villa with a swimming pool, he opened the car door a little unhappy.

Dean got out of the car, looked around, and smiled: "It's just rented, the guy who lives here is just a poor guy who pretends to be a rich man, if I'm not wrong, he should very much hope that he can blend in with a rich student." Crowds, spend a lot of money on facades."

There were two other people, a man and a woman, who got out of the car.

These two are the security of this community.

If Lawrence hadn't pulled out the police detective certificate, saying that a murder may have occurred here, the community security might not have allowed Dean and the others to come in directly.

Hear Dean's words.

Among them, the tall female security guard with brown hair and ponytail raised her eyebrows: "You mean, the owner here is a fake rich man?"

"Yes." Dean pointed to those gardens and the orchard in the distance:

"Did you see these.

Those who are really rich will have them pruned regularly. Although there are traces of pruning here, they are very amateurish. It should be done by the owner and friends.

In addition, look at the outer walls and window frames. No one has been called to repair them here. It's not that the owner doesn't want to, it's just that he lacks money.

If I'm not wrong, he should still be driving a not-cheap car and wearing a not-so-cheap watch. "

The poor play with cars, and the rich play with watches.

When you see someone driving a luxury car and wearing a famous watch, the first impression you give people is that this person is very rich.

But the really rich people care more about the details in the quality of life.

Dean's words directly suppressed the words of this good-looking female security guard, and finally turned them into a simple and rude FK.

Lawrence on the side couldn't help looking at the female security guard with scrutiny: "Do you have any stories with this owner?"

The male security guard next to him shrugged and explained: "We all thought that the owner here was a rich student, so many young female security guards and housekeepers took the initiative to go to that guy's bed, and among them was La Ti's sister."

The annual rent here is not less than 50 US dollars, which belongs to the real rich area, and similar situations are not uncommon.

When the female security guard heard the news from her colleague, she said in a bad tone: "I really hope he's okay, so I can kick his balls!"

After speaking, she took the lead and walked towards the gate of the villa.

on the way.

The male security guard briefly introduced the situation here to Dean and the two:

"The owner here lives in Europe and entrusts a property company to be responsible for the rental of the villa.

The current owner rented the house here two years ago.

He is a student from a university not far away and a native of Los Angeles. This guy often brings young people to parties, and he often sees many beautiful women, so we have a deep impression of him. "

Dean asked casually, "When was the last time he came back?"

"Three days ago!", the male security guard said with certainty: "Although I haven't checked the vehicle entry and exit records, I can be sure that it was three days ago, because that day he brought in a few guys who didn't look like good people. It is the object of our concern, but neither I nor the colleagues on duty found that they had left, and they should still be in the villa."

People here like to hoard a lot of food at home at one time, so it's not surprising that they don't go out for a few days.

talking room.

The female security guard had already come to the gate of the villa and rang the doorbell.

Waited more than a minute.

There was no movement from inside.

Dean went straight to the window and looked in.

This location is the lobby on the first floor. You can see some European-style furniture. The floor is covered with thick carpets with complicated patterns. An antique chair is lying on the side. Fruits are scattered all over the place. It seems that someone is here. There was a fight at the location.

Dean waved at the three of them: "There are traces of fighting inside. I suspect that something happened to the owner and the people who brought them here."

When the two security guards heard the words, they immediately ran over and looked inside.

After seeing the situation inside clearly.

Without hesitation, the male security directly picked up the walkie-talkie on his shoulder with an ugly face, explained the situation here to the security office, and requested to call the surrounding public surveillance by the way.

Residents of high-end communities regard their own safety as very important.

Although the female security guard was upset before, her expression was also ugly.

If there is a homicide here, then these security guards with high salaries are afraid that they will be deducted a large amount of bonuses.

Lawrence, the old god, stood next to Dean without interrupting.

This kind of case that happened in a high-end community, if there is no investigation order from the police station, hands are tied, and a door may be broken, and there may be complaints, and they can only wait for the community security to break the door.

moment.

With the busyness of a professional locksmith, the door of the villa was opened.

A smell mixed with a faint odor rushed straight out as the door opened.

The expressions of several security guards who rushed over changed when they smelled it.

As the security guards of high-end communities, they are generally professionals in the industry, and many of them have seen blood.

They couldn't be more familiar with the smell of rotting flesh.

One of the captain-like black men stopped his teammates who wanted to rush into the house to check the situation, and looked at Dean and Lawrence: "Mr. Detective, the situation looks a little bad."

Dean nodded: "Call the police and send one or two of your people to follow us in. By the way, we will call the surveillance cameras near here and hand them over to the forensics department."

Done.

Dean led Lawrence into the villa.

Seeing this, the security captain hurriedly followed after ordering his subordinates.

enter the house.

Dean was in no hurry to survey the scene.

His nostrils fluttered slightly, following the smell, he led Lawrence and the five big and three thick black security captains across the hall, and went directly to the side door at the bottom of the downstairs.

The door was left open, revealing the dark passage below.

The security captain is undoubtedly very familiar with the structure of the houses here, and he explained: "This is usually an indoor wine cellar, and some trendy homeowners will renovate the house and install indoor elevators, but there are also many homeowners who like this old-fashioned structure. "

talking.

He stepped forward familiarly, stood in the dark and fumbled twice.

Accompanied by a slight clicking sound.

Several lights flashed twice, illuminating the passage leading to the underground.

"Let's go."

After Dean didn't feel the danger warning, he immediately stepped forward and walked down the stairs.

when reaching the corner.

Lawrence and the black security captain both smelled an increasingly strong rancid smell.

They realized that the body was down there.

The security captain glanced at Dean's back with different eyes.

You should know that after a period of time in a closed environment, the unique smell will adhere to all the places where it can attach, making it difficult for people to find the source of the smell in the first place.

But the handsome young police detective in front of him immediately locked in here after entering the door.

Is this guy a dog nose?
The further down, the colder the surrounding environment.

The three of them walked down the stairs to the bottom without saying a word.

The entrance is several modern freezers.

A steady stream of cold air gushed out from inside, filling the not-so-big cellar space.

In the distance, there are a few glass cabinets embedded in the wall, with a few scattered bottles of wine inside, which looks a bit crude and wastes the space here.

Besides.

Within the range of vision, nothing else was found.

Lawrence and the black security captain had surprised expressions on their faces at the same time.

What about the corpse?
After smelling the increasingly strong stench of corpses, they had already prepared their minds, and even thought about the cruel scene under the cellar.

As a result, there is nothing below.

Something is wrong!
"what's going on?"

Lawrence looked again in the cellar, but found nothing.

Without giving up, he opened several freezers to check.

Inside the freezer, there were only some big ice cubes frozen from an unknown liquid that looked very cloudy, but it was confirmed that there were no dead bodies stuffed inside. The gap at the bottom was only the size of an adult's fist. The sound of the motor, it is impossible to hide the body.

So where does the corpse smell come from?

What about the corpse?
Lawrence looked at Dean with a look of seeing a ghost: "The smell is definitely the smell of corpses, but why are there no corpses found here?"

Dean had the same confusion on his face.

The layout here is actually a bit like the basement that was secretly dug in the lawyer's house before.

Before he came down, he even wondered if there might be a group of rats here too.

But the current situation made him a little confused.

The feedback from the nose clearly told Dean that the source of the body odor was in this small space.

This small cellar is only about 20 square meters.

It can be scanned at a glance.

What about the corpse?
Dean frowned, followed the route that Lawrence had walked, and followed the route. He carefully checked the walls and the ground, but found no traces of a mezzanine.

In the entire cellar, except for a few built-in wine racks and a few freezers for refrigeration, there is nothing else.

Sudden.

Dean's mind flashed.

He slowly raised his head and looked overhead.

I saw the pale top, two white and three black, five naked corpses, nailed alive to the ceiling of the cellar by some thick 'nails', standing in the cellar with their mouths wide open and turbid dead eyes. The crowd shouted like a realistic version of an oil painting.
Lawrence and the black security captain saw Dean looking up at the top of his head without saying a word, and subconsciously looked up.

"FK!"

Unexpectedly, the black captain was terrified by the five hideous corpses 'glued' to the ceiling, and sat down on the ground.

Lawrence was better, but his legs felt weak, and the two lumps on his face couldn't help trembling.

Looking up, there are five corpses with distorted expressions, staring at you with those cloudy eyes.

Who can resist this!

If he hadn't seen a larger scale of more than 20 hanging human body jigsaw puzzles before, Lawrence felt that his reaction would not be much better than the black security captain.

Dean is much calmer.

After seeing a few hanging corpses, he realized that the murderer was the same person as the one in the previous body jigsaw puzzle.

This is the same as the sequence of killings he deduced.

It's just that Dean is a little puzzled.

After all, this is a cellar. How did the murderer fix the five corpses against the ceiling with a few big iron nails?

You know, this is not the human body puzzle scene that was discovered for the first time.

With the action of microorganisms inside the corpse, the tissues and flesh inside the corpse first stiffened, then softened and rotted, the toughness decreased, and the adhesion between the tissues gradually disappeared.

Like the kind of person who hanged himself to death.

Although the spine and neck are used as support to keep the corpse suspended, a large amount of excrement will pour out from the intestines of the corpse in no more than half a day, and the rope will be embedded in the neck bones of the corpse in no more than three days. As a result, the flesh and blood were separated. After half a month, tsk tsk, unless the corpse was directly dried in the air, there would definitely be flesh and blood residue under the corpse's feet.

This place is also different from the death scene where the hanged person was hanged. Nails were simply pierced through the flesh and blood to fix the person to the ceiling, and no trace of blood was found on the ground.

In this case, even if the cellar temperature is low, under normal circumstances, the flesh and blood of the corpse should continue to slide under the action of gravity, and finally hit the floor, instead of becoming a sculpture that fits the ceiling, it is really fixed on it.

How did the murderer do it?
At this moment, even the well-informed Dean couldn't help but fall into doubts.

He didn't even see the murderer's method of killing.

Difficult.
