Chapter 160 Correcting the direction of investigation (please subscribe, please vote!)
The deceased, Qin Qinglian, died between 8 pm and 8 am on August 7. There were [-] wounds in the abdomen, chest and other places. The characteristics of the wounds were consistent with sharp injuries. One of the sharp injuries in the chest pierced the heart, which was fatal. There were no murder weapons compounding the above wounds found at the scene, and there were no obvious signs of a struggle before his death.

Li Xiang took out Tan Qinglian's autopsy report and read it from beginning to end. He read with relish the photos of the deceased and the close-ups of the wounds.

It was just one sentence that aroused Li Xiang's doubts.

No obvious signs of struggle on your body?

Could it be that when the murderer committed the murder, the deceased had no strength to resist at all?

Or was it that the deceased was killed before he had time to resist?
Or is there some other reason?
Li Xiang had too many doubts that needed to be answered, but just by looking at the files they sent, his doubts still couldn't be answered, so he asked: "Team D, the environment at the crime scene should still be there, right?"

"The case has not been solved yet, and we have sealed the crime scene."

"Do you have time? I want to go see the scene."

"No problem, I'll drive."

Li Xiang followed Ding Youqiang, still recalling the relevant details of the case in his mind. Vaguely, he felt as if he had overlooked something.

While waiting for Ding Youqiang to drive, Li Xiang took out his mobile phone and opened the game system. In this case, the system also issued a task.

[Task name: Sanhe Village Li Guisuo Murder Case]

[Task description: A peasant woman in Sanhe Village died unexpectedly at home. However, the day after she was buried, the professional pallbearer who was keeping watch over her died mysteriously.]

[Task requirement: Assist Canglin police to find out the truth of the case]

[Task reward: experience +600, diamonds +3000]

The previous mission has not been completed yet, but the next mission can actually be accepted.

It seems that the system is also multi-core processing, and two tasks can be completed at the same time.

"Team Leader Li, get in the car. The mountain roads in the village are difficult to walk. Please fasten your seat belt."

"Ok."

After Li Xiang got in the car, he obediently buckled his seat belt.

As we get closer and closer to Sanhe Village, the roads in the mountains are getting worse and worse. From the cement road at the beginning, it gradually turned into a gravel road, and then a mixture of cinder roads and dirt roads.

When it rains, it becomes muddy.

The traces of many wheel marks will form uneven roads after drying in the sun.

Li Xiang sat in the car and felt that the car was in danger of falling apart at any time.

"This car is more than ten years old. We are a poor place and don't have much money. We have applied for a police car for a long time, but the superiors have never approved it. Your place has a developed economy, so the police cars you drive must be very good, right?"

"It's almost the same. Although it's not that old, it's still seven or eight years old. Good steel is used on the blade, and the country has many places to spend money. If we can persist, we can carry forward the spirit of hardship and simplicity of the older generation."

"Team Leader Li is right."

Ding Youqiang said it was right, but felt a little disappointed in his heart.

Their bureau had applied for another police car the year before last, but it had been rejected for two consecutive years. He originally wanted to take advantage of the leadership of the provincial department to work, so he specially drove a relatively shabby one in the bureau. Che, deliberately complained in front of Li Xiang. When Li Xiang went back and mentioned it, they would have two hopes.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiang refused to accept the offer at all, and asked them to live a more simple life and carry forward the revolutionary spirit of the older generation. He really couldn't refute this reason.

I am really convinced by this old six.

Afterwards, Ding Youqiang didn't say anything else, but drove hard and soon arrived at Sanhe Village.

During this time, there were constant disturbances in the village, and police cars came frequently, so the villagers were not surprised.

We walked all the way through the village and stopped at the entrance of the small shop.

After Li Xiang got out of the car, he looked around.

Sanhe Village is indeed not very wealthy, and overall it is far different from Lijia Village. There are not many two-story buildings here. Most of the houses are flat houses, and the walls are not made of cement, but more like mud.

After Ding Youqiang got out of the car, he went to the door of the canteen, carefully took off the two white seals on the door, put them in the car, and would put them up again later.

"Team Leader Li, please come inside."

"it is good."

Li Xiang put on his shoe covers and gloves, then carefully walked into the crime scene.

The scene of the crime was not as chaotic as Li Xiangxiang thought. Most of the items on the product shelves were intact. Only some products near the cashier were knocked off.

"Are there any suspicious fingerprints found in the cashier, drawers, etc.?"

"No."

"Looks like he came prepared."

Li Xiang did not rush in. Instead, he looked at the door lock of the canteen at the door and checked it himself. The door lock was intact and there were no signs of prying or violent damage.

Then he checked the doors, windows, and the backyard.

When Ding Youqiang saw Li Xiang's action, he also explained: "Team Leader Li, we have also inspected the surrounding areas such as doors and windows. No signs of climbing or climbing were found, and the windows are basically intact. The canteen opened by Tan Qinglian has a card game. It was quite crowded with people watching the excitement, and the shop was usually open until ten o'clock in the evening, and then closed for the rest. We guessed that the murderer came in openly, and then waited for everyone to leave, then started to kill the person, and finally left in a swagger. go."

"If that's the case, then why didn't the surrounding neighbors hear the cry that night?"

"Playing cards is already very noisy. The neighbors have long been accustomed to it, so no one pays attention to it."

Li Xiang nodded thoughtfully.Then looking at the lime painting on the ground showing the location of the deceased, combined with the photos of the crime scene at the time, Li Xiang slowly lay down in the posture of the deceased.

"Leader Lee"

Ding Youqiang didn't expect that Li Xiang was so brave at such a young age, but this ground had been walked by dead people. The black dried blood on the ground still smelled fishy in the summer, so he just lay down on it.

Moreover, this dead man is not an ordinary person, but a man who died violently. He has turned into a sly and killed a man.

Of course, this is a rumor and cannot be believed, but it still makes people panic every time they think about it.

Li Xiang ignored these. If it was true, he really wanted to know what Gui looked like and whether he was as beautiful as on TV. Then let Gui and the system compete to see which one of them was better!
Back to business, when he was working, he was still very serious and rigorous. Looking at some splatters of blood on the ground, he ignored Ding Youqiang's strange eyes and kept adjusting his fallen posture.

With his master-level forensic skills, dripping blood and splattering blood on the ground can help him reconstruct the scene of the crime.

First, he used a formula to calculate the incident angle of these blood stains, then extended the straight line along the incident angle, and selected a few more points to implement this method. The point where the straight lines intersected was the bleeding point, and the deceased was attacked at this location.

"According to the current direction of your investigation, the suspect may be an out-of-towner who came here for a poor trip. Now assuming that you are an out-of-towner, let's simulate what happened on the night of the crime."

"Uh, good!"

Ding Youqiang is a little confused. What is the use of simulating this? Can the murderer be caught by simulating this?
Although he was a little disapproving, he would still cooperate when it was time to cooperate: "What should I do?"

"It's very simple. First of all, you are a poor tourist. Under what circumstances would you choose to rob and kill?"

“When you’re desperate!”

"To be more specific, he was thirsty or hungry, but he didn't have a penny on him, so he had evil thoughts and chose to rob the canteen."

"That's the truth." Ding Youqiang nodded and agreed.

"But there is a logical loophole in it. Since he was very thirsty and hungry, why didn't he take food from the shelves? Look at the water and food on the shelves. They are arranged very neatly and there are no signs of being swept away. This is a bit strange. It’s consistent with what we just inferred.”

"We have discussed this issue before. It is not convenient for the criminal suspect to escape with a large amount of food on him. He only needs to take a small amount of food to pad his stomach first. There are also some places for food on the shelves. It is not ruled out. He took it away, and then searched all the money at the cash register, so that he could spend money on food wherever he escaped."

"This is just your inference after the fact. I think the murderer's purpose should be to seek money instead of killing people. This can be seen from the murderer using a fruit knife from the deceased's home as the murder weapon. He did not prepare the murderer in advance, so he He didn't come here just to kill people.

But when he was committing the theft, the deceased suddenly appeared and caught someone. When the murderer was in panic, he saw the fruit knife, so he became murderous. In an unexpected situation, after killing passionately, he could still calmly and well. Take items from the shelves? "

"This..." Ding Youqiang didn't know how to answer for a moment.

In fact, they also had this doubt at the time, but they checked all the clues they could. If there were no other clues, they had to focus on outsiders. However, after investigating for such a long time, there were no valuable clues.

"There's another problem here."

"and also?"

"Well, through the reconstruction of these blood stains, the deceased walked seven or eight steps outside the room before being stabbed by the murderer for the first time. After that, the deceased was stabbed again while escaping towards the door. After several stabbings, there were no bloody footprints on the ground. This means that the murderer did not return. Instead, he quickly left the crime scene after realizing the murder. By this time, the murderer had already stolen the money. In fact, the murderer had already stolen the money. The goal in the beginning was to make money.”

After Li Xiang sorted out the crime scene, the nature of the case became clearer.

"This is not a case of burglary and murder, but a case of burglary. After being discovered, the murder was caused by passion due to fear that the matter would be exposed, and the murderer was from the same village."

"Oh, what do you say?"

At this time, Ding Youqiang was already convinced of his ability. The leader of the task force sent by the provincial level did have two skills and his analysis was well-founded. Many issues were ignored by them.

At this time, Li Xiang suddenly targeted the locals as suspects, which surprised him because at the beginning, they had ruled out the possibility of people from the village committing the crime through various reasons, and then they turned their attention to outsiders. .

But Li Xiang told him that they had ruled out the correct answer from the beginning. How could he accept this?

"Judging from the confessions you investigated, the neighbors did not hear the deceased's cries on the night of the incident. The reason is that cards are often played here until midnight, and the noise of playing cards is normal for the neighbors. But if the deceased found a stranger sneaking around, If she steals something at home, won’t she shout to catch the thief? But she doesn’t, why?”

"Does she know this thief?"

"Yes, she knew the thief, so when she found the thief, she did not immediately call for someone to arrest the thief. Instead, she came over to confirm what the other person was doing. The murderer did not want his theft to be exposed, so he had the idea of ​​​​killing someone. .”

Ding Youqiang had to admit that Li Xiang's speculation was more logical, but he also had a question: "We have investigated all the people in this village and all the people related to this case. Only Qiao Liangfu, no one can do anything for him." Testify where he was at the time of the incident. We conducted a comprehensive investigation on him afterwards, but found nothing suspicious in his home. Is there anything we have missed?"

The direction of their initial investigation was actually similar to what Li Xiang had judged. It was just that Li Xiang had just added some details that they had overlooked before, but the direction of their investigation was not wrong.

But the final investigation result was inconclusive.

"Re-adjust the direction of the investigation, focus on the people of this village, conduct another investigation, investigate and verify the whereabouts of everyone in the village that night, summarize all suspicious clues, and verify one suspicion point after another."

If a case is investigated in the wrong direction, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain.

Li Xiang adjusted the direction of their investigation in a timely manner, pulled them back from the direction they had deviated, and started to focus on the people of the village again.

He believed that there should be clues soon.

After all, there are only a few hundred households in this village. If we investigate in groups, we can sort them out very quickly.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

"Wait a minute, I have a rough guess about the appearance of this criminal suspect. The murderer is male, aged between 20 and 50 years old, and over 1.7 meters tall. You should focus your investigation on these groups. There will be gains.”

"Um, why is the murderer's height above 1.7 meters?"

The first two conditions are easy to understand for the murderer's characterization. The deceased had almost no room for resistance before she was killed. It can be seen that the murderer's power is superior to hers and has the ability to crush Tan Qinglian. Therefore, the speculation that the murderer is a young adult is valid.

But how is the height of the murderer deduced?
No traces of the suspect's footprints were found at the scene, so it was impossible to make any inferences.
