Cop Universe

Chapter 110 Fourteen Suspects
Huang Qifa and Ma Jun were taken aback at the same time when they heard the words Five Elements Killing.

"Where are the five elements killing people? What five elements killing people? Have you read too many fantasy novels? Why don't you say it's ghosts killing people!" Huang Qifa snorted coldly.

He Jiahui walked to the whiteboard, took out a pen, wrote down Chen Zishuo's name, and said at the same time: "The first deceased, Chen Zishuo, was burned to death. I don't know if you have noticed that in his name, there is exactly A word of fire."

He Jiahui wrote down Fang Moxuan's name again: "The second deceased, Fang Moxuan, was buried alive, and there was also an earthen character in his name!"

He Jiahui continued to write down Liu Baorui's name: "As for the third deceased, Liu Baorui, he was wrapped in metal wires when he died, and there was a gold letter in his name.

Fire, earth, metal, what do you think of?Is it the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, earth and five elements in Taoist culture?That's why I said, this is a five-element murder case. "

Huang Qifa didn't accept this statement. He said, "Just based on the deceased's name and method of death, it's too far-fetched to say that the five elements killed people!"

"One can be said to be a coincidence, two can be said to be far-fetched, and now it's the third one, which can no longer be explained by coincidence." He Jiahui paused, and continued:

"I don't know how much you know about the Five Elements, but you must have heard of the saying that the five elements are born together. The five elements are born together. It is said that fire gives birth to earth, earth gives birth to metal, metal gives birth to water, and water gives birth to wood..."

"Let you solve the case, tell me about the Five Elements Feng Shui!" Huang Qifa interrupted him.

He Jiahui opened his mouth and replied: "Sir Huang, according to the order of the five elements I just said, fire, earth, and metal are the same as the order of killing people?"

"Chen Zishuo is fire, Fang Moxuan is earth, Liu Baorui is gold, it seems like this is true!" Ma Jun nodded suddenly.

He Jiahui continued; "Sir Huang, when you told me the way of the second deceased, Fang Moxuan's death, I thought it was a little strange, why did you expose your feet outside while burying him alive.

Later, when I went to the scene of Liu Baorui's death, the way he died was even more strange. He tied people up with wire, inserted a lightning rod, waited for the lightning to strike, and electrocuted him alive. How could this be a normal way of killing people?
Using such a complicated method to kill people is obviously not killing people for the sake of killing people, but more like performing some kind of ritual, so I thought of it, the Five Elements Theory of Taoism. "

"Even if the murderer did what you said, killing people according to the five elements, what is his purpose?" Huang Qifa asked.

"Didn't I just say that this is likely to be some kind of ritual. It may be to pray for a good feng shui, or it may be to pray for immortality. To be specific, you have to consult an expert who understands the five elements of Taoism. "He Jiahui said.

Huang Qifa snorted coldly: "What do you mean, we are the police, don't tell me we have to ask Feng Shui Mr. Feng Shui for a fortune-telling to handle the case! If it gets out, it is said that our regional serious crime team solves the case by fortune-telling, then it will be true He has become the laughing stock of the police!"

"Huang sir, we're just looking for a professional to consult, and it's not really a fortune-telling."

He Jiahui paused for a moment, and then said: "If you feel ashamed to ask a fortune teller, we can also go to the university to consult with a professor. Isn't it shameful for the police to consult a professor?"

"What are you kidding! Tell me, which university professor can teach people fortune-telling and Fengshui! They are professors, not Taoist priests who practice rituals in Taoist temples, not mothers-in-law who beat villains on the side of the road, and not those who ask for rice and ask ghosts The magic stick on the upper body!" Huang Qifa asked back.

Before He Jiahui could answer, Ma Jun reminded from the side: "Sir Huang, we have several universities in Xiangjiang, all of which have seminaries! The Chinese University where this case happened has a very famous seminary."

"The seminary is run by the church. People worship God, shout Hallelujah, and read the Bible. Foreign monks don't know anything about gold, wood, water, fire, and earth!" Huang Qifa said.

He Jiahui answered: "Sir Huang, the seminary does not understand the five elements of Taoism, but those who understand Taoism should know this! But I remember that Chinese University also has a course of religious studies. The professor of this course, Definitely know something about Taoism.

What's more, the deceased were all students of Chinese University, so nine out of ten the murderer is related to Chinese University, maybe he is from Chinese University, we go to Chinese University, consult with professors, we may find new clues. "

After seeking advice from a university professor, Huang Qifa was not so repulsive in his heart. He nodded and said, "You can go, but you can't rely on the five elements of Taoism. This sounds too mysterious, and it feels like a wild guess. The normal investigation should be carried on.”

"Of course!" He Jiahui nodded, and continued: "For the third deceased, all the surveillance videos of the building where the incident occurred have been brought back. We are working overtime to watch the videos, and there must be clues in them.

The place where the deceased was found this time was different from the previous two times. This time it was not outdoors, but on the roof of a building, which was a relatively closed space. Surveillance videos could be used to narrow down the scope of the murderer. "

Ma Jun suddenly remembered something, and he said: "The five elements are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. There are five in total. The murderer has killed three people now, and there are still two more. That means he will continue to commit crimes. You just said What is the Five Elements Harmony Generation?"

"Fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood, and wood generates fire." He Jiahui continued: "Now fire, earth, and metal have already had victims. According to the order of the five elements, it should be water's turn!"

"That is to say, the murderer's next target is the person with water in his name, and the method of attack is to drown him!" Thinking of this, Ma Jun immediately said; "Hurry up and get the list of members of the student union!"

The list of members of the student union was handed over to Ma Jun. He read it quickly, but frowned slightly.

"There are quite a few people with water in their names. Take surnames as an example. There are Jiang, Pan, Hong, and Shen. There are even more people with water in their names.

Like this Jiang Haichao, all three characters contain water, and this Liang Bing, two points of water are also water!This is Zhu Chenyu, the word 'rain' must be considered water, right? "

As Ma Jun said, he handed the student union list to He Jiahui.

He Jiahui also quickly read it, but judging from the names, there are quite a few with water.

Human life is inseparable from water, and the development of civilization cannot do without a vast source of water. Water is one of the most important elements in nature.

Therefore, in ideographic characters such as Chinese characters, water is naturally filled with things that are closely related to human beings, so Chinese characters with water account for a considerable proportion.The higher the proportion, the higher the probability of entering the name.

"Ma sir, there are so many people with water in their names, and we don't know who the murderer's next target is. Even if the police want to protect them, they don't have that many police forces!" He Jiahui said.

"Then we can only catch the murderer as soon as possible, otherwise there will really be a fourth victim." Ma Jun said helplessly.

……

Huang Qi got angry, and then left angrily.

Yang Zai came over and said, "Ma sir, check the surveillance video and found it! We found Liu Baorui!"

He Jiahui and Ma Jun immediately joined together, and the figure of the deceased Liu Baorui did appear on the surveillance screen.

The first is the surveillance video in the foyer, where Liu Baorui walked into the door and then went straight to the elevator.

"The time is [-]:[-] p.m. last Saturday." He Jiahui glanced at the time displayed on the monitor, and then said; "Call out the monitor of the elevator at the same time."

The elevator monitor was adjusted. Liu Baorui walked into the elevator, then pressed a floor, and went directly upstairs. The elevator finally stopped at the eighth floor, and Liu Baorui also got out of the elevator.

"Liu Baorui went to the eighth floor, the surveillance video on the eighth floor, call it out immediately!" He Jiahui ordered.

Yang Zai shook his head: "In this building, apart from the lobby and the elevator, there are only a few places where surveillance is installed, and the entire eighth floor is not installed with surveillance."

He Jiahui began to analyze: "It is now certain that the deceased Liu Baorui came to this building by himself, and was not brought there by someone. Then the question arises, why did he go to the eighth floor of this building?"

"There is no class on Saturday. He should have an appointment with someone else. Let's meet here!" Ma Jun replied.

He Jiahui nodded: "That's right, someone asked Liu Baorui to meet on Saturday afternoon, the eighth floor of this building was their meeting place, and then Liu Baorui was killed, that is to say, the person who asked him to meet was very It may be the murderer!

I speculate that the murderer should know that there is no surveillance on the eighth floor, so he asked Liu Baorui to meet on the eighth floor.After seeing the murderer, Liu Baorui was stunned with sevoflurane, and then the murderer imprisoned him in a certain room of the building where the crime occurred.

When there was a thunderstorm on Monday night, the murderer took him to the roof, tied him with wire and lightning rods, and electrocuted him to death with lightning.

From the eighth floor to the rooftop, there are only three flights of stairs, so it is not difficult to move one person up, and taking the stairs can avoid the elevator's monitoring.

Or in other words, on the day the murderer knocked Liu Baorui into a coma, he was directly moved to the rooftop to be imprisoned, and then waited until Monday night to set up the scene and electrocute him to death with lightning. "

Ma Jun nodded: "I agree with your inference. According to your inference, the person who went to the eighth floor of this building last Saturday may be the murderer! Yang Zai, check the video immediately and see what happened on Saturday. , Has anyone been to the eighth floor."

"Wait a minute." He Jiahui continued: "What if the murderer went to other floors first, and then took the stairs to the eighth floor? This way, he can avoid surveillance.

When the murderer carried Liu Baorui to the top floor, he knew to take the stairs to avoid the elevator monitoring, so he had no reason not to take the initiative to avoid the elevator monitoring.So in theory, anyone who appeared in this building on Saturday may be the murderer. "

"Then check the surveillance throughout the day. Anyway, it was Saturday, and the faculty and students were resting. There should not be many people entering this building." Ma Jun said.

He Jiahui pondered for a moment, and then said: "You can continue to narrow the scope. Just look at the period between [-]:[-] noon and [-]:[-] pm. It is enough for anyone to enter this building."

"Why?" Ma Jin asked a little puzzled.

He Jiahui explained: "The deceased Liu Baorui entered the hall at [-]:[-] in the afternoon. I guess he made an appointment to meet someone at around [-]:[-]. If I made an appointment with you at [-]:[-], you would come back after lunch. Or skip lunch and wait until three o'clock?"

"It's three o'clock in the afternoon until lunch time, and there are still three hours. Of course, I have lunch first, and then I will meet you! I can't be hungry for three hours!"

As Ma Jun spoke, he showed an expression of sudden realization: "I see! People who make appointments with Liu Baorui must have eaten lunch before coming to the building to meet Liu Baorui, so those who go in before lunch time can be excluded! "

"That's right." He Jiahui showed a teachable expression, and continued: "In the same way, people after dinner time can also be excluded.

If Liu Baorui made an appointment with that person after dinner, then there is no need for Liu Baorui to come at three o'clock in the afternoon, he can come after dinner.Even if the other party is late, it will not be later than the time to finish the meal.

The normal lunch time is definitely not earlier than eleven o'clock in the morning, and normal people should have dinner at seven o'clock in the afternoon.So we only need to pay attention to who has entered this building during the eight hours in the middle! "

The time was accurate to within eight hours, and the range was greatly reduced.

Everyone put down other work and began to check the monitoring records of the eight hours of entering and leaving the building, and the results were available in less than an hour.

Ma Jun came to He Jiahui's office and said, "He sir, the results came out. Between eleven o'clock in the morning and seven o'clock in the afternoon, a total of seventeen people entered this building except Liu Baorui.

Three of them left before [-]pm and did not return.These three people have no time intersection with Liu Baorui, so they can be ruled out as suspects.

Of the remaining [-] people, five entered and exited the building multiple times, and the other nine entered and exited the building at one time, and they overlapped with the deceased in time, but four of them entered the building in pairs, or in pairs left together. "

"When two people are together, the possibility of a gang committing the crime cannot be ruled out, but they can also prove each other's absence." He Jiahui thought for a while, and then asked; "Among the fourteen people, is there any woman who entered alone? "

"There are four women who went alone." Ma Jun paused, and then asked, "Are the suspicions of these four people also temporarily ruled out?"

"The power of women, it is difficult to carry an adult man three flights of stairs. But things are not absolute. Now people advocate fitness. Although many women's strength is not as strong as men, it is not powerless. It can only be said that they The possibility of committing a crime is less.

The specifics depend on the actual situation. If it is a woman with a relatively thin body, it really can't move an adult man. If it is a woman with a relatively healthy body, it may not be so. "

He Jiahui paused for a moment, then continued; "What is certain at present is that the murderer is among these fourteen people. Let's go to the Chinese University in a while, consult with the professor about Wu Xing, and at the same time find out the identities of these fourteen people by the way." !"
