The King of the City

Lin Chen nodded slightly and said, "When I checked the bodies of the four deceased people, I first found that the 'X'-shaped wound in Li Erya's room and the uneven nails were not right, and then I found Li Erya. The difference between the body and the other three corpses..."

Everyone listened intently, except for the sound of rain, no one spoke.

Lin Chen looked at Zhang Tian'an and said, "At that time, I told Officer Luo that I wanted to take off the red dress on Li Erya's body. I took it off halfway. I said it's ok, I don't need to take it off anymore."

Zhang Tianan immediately remembered this, and she said, "Yes, yes, you didn't seem to have discovered anything at the time, but I still know you well, I feel that you must have discovered something at that time, but in front of you In the face of Officer Luo, you deliberately didn't say it, and Officer Luo didn't notice."

Lin Chen said: "Yes, the black dress worn by the deceased Li Erya has a button missing. I asked Officer Luo if he knew where the black button went. Officer Luo said that it should be when the deceased was struggling. Dropped in the fields, or washed away by the rain."

"But when I was taking off Li Erya's dress halfway, I saw a small piece of thread on the dress where the button fell off."

"The end of the thread is used to fix the button. If the button was dropped by the deceased's struggle when he encountered the murderer, the black thread that was cut by the cheesy should have a rough and filamentous section, but what I saw A small piece of thread, its section is very flat."

"I was thinking at the time that the cut on Li Erya's skirt should not have been lost due to struggle, but by the murderer using scissors or a knife."

2.1

"The button was cut by the murderer, but no button was found at the scene, so there is a possibility that the button was taken by the murderer."

"At the funeral home, it's just a guess on my part, there's no way to know for sure."

Lin Chen paused, took out his mobile phone, found a photo, and said, "Until this morning, when the sixth dead person in the woods was found, I also found a little girl on her clothes. a button."

"I asked the forensic doctor to help me turn the body over, just to check the buttons on the deceased's clothes. I used scissors to cut open the deceased's unbuttoned clothes. The thread with very short knots, the section of the thread is also neat.”

"The clothes of the two deceased and the remaining threads on their bodies are neatly cut, and they were obviously cut with sharp objects." Lin Chen said, "This murderer is killing the fourth deceased Li Erya, and the sixth deceased. When he cut off the buttons on their clothes, why did he do that?"

"I have two guesses. One is that the murderer has button control. He is very interested in buttons, especially the buttons on the deceased."

"The second is... The murderer took the buttons from the deceased as a symbol of victory, just like an athlete winning a medal in a sports meeting. Every button belonging to the deceased is, for the murderer, a symbol of victory. A medal for victory, seeing those buttons, he can reminisce about the people he killed."

"Killing people, the police have nothing to do, this is something to be proud of for those who are mentally distorted."

Having said this, Lin Chen's voice paused slightly, he looked at Luo Heshu, and said, "Officer Luo, the night we finished going to the funeral home, Tian Nian wanted to go to your house to meet your daughter Luo Xiaohui. Afterwards, Tian An and Xiao Hui were talking and chatting in the living room, and you went to your room."

"In your room, there is a portrait of your wife on the wall, and in front of the portrait is a censer."

"You only came out of the room after Xiaohui told Tianan that you had only drank half of the drink hidden in the schoolbag and couldn't bear to finish it. The incense ashes, that is to say, after you enter the room and go to the bedroom, go to the incense burner in front of the portrait."

"I didn't know why you set the incense burner before, maybe it was just a coincidence, but this morning, I learned about your past from Team Leader Miao."

The scene was silent, only Lin Chen's voice said: "A few years ago, there was a gang fight in the county town. At that time, you led the team to find evidence of the crime of the black boss, arrested the black boss, and ended up provoking the black boss' confidant. Their revenge, they insulted and killed your wife."

As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, Luo Heshu over there clenched his fists and shouted, "Enough is enough, you are not allowed to mention my wife in front of so many people, you are not allowed to mention it!"

Luo Heshu's emotions seemed a little excited. The policemen who were thinking about it all knew about Luo Heshu's past, and they were all sympathetic to what happened to Luo Heshu.

When Director Liu saw Luo Heshu, he seemed to want to do something to Lin Chen, so he hurriedly winked at several police officers and asked them to stop Luo Heshu.

Lin Chen didn't care about Luo Heshu's roar, he continued his own train of thought and said, "After your wife was insulted and killed, you tried your best to catch the murderer, but an accident happened and her arm was amputated."

"You lost an arm, the murderers were caught, and two of them were sentenced to death, but... the black boss who was caught by your own hands, his backer is involved in his activities, and he was originally going to be executed. , was commuted to life imprisonment."

"You were very angry, knowing that someone was helping the black boss, so you went to the county leader to make a scene, but...you were almost kicked out of the public security system. It was Director Liu who saved you."

"So what?" Luo Heshu asked.

"Think about it from another point of view, if I dedicate my youth to the public security system and work hard to handle cases, but the final result is that it is useless to work hard, there are many shady things in the county, and if the leader waves your hand, you have to get out of the way, I hate those people so much. County leaders? I wish they died, I wish their filthy deeds were discovered and disposed of."

Lin Chen said: "So, I think you, Officer Luo, have always held a grudge against the county leaders, but you can't take revenge on them in an open and honest way, because you still have a daughter, and if something happens to you, your daughter will not be taken care of. already."

"I can't know the specific changes and thoughts in your heart. There is a speculation that you put pressure on the county leaders in order to retaliate, so you provoked the long-silent rainy night serial murder case."

"The rainy night serial murder case is an imitation crime. Wang Chungen killed three dead people in a row a year or two ago. He stopped. You imitated his modus operandi, but you ignored the [-]-degree cross-shaped wound and the nails on the deceased's hands. As you killed the sixth dead man, your impersonation progressed, using cruciform wounds and nail clippings."

"After you killed them, you took the buttons from their bodies and treated the buttons as a kind of trophy. You took the trophy and went back and showed her in front of your wife's portrait, and buried the buttons in the censer. What do you think? You are ashamed of your wife, maybe you will feel better if you do this."

"I will pay attention to you, one is that before going to the funeral home, you deliberately confuse me and Tian Ai's investigation line of sight, making us think the murderer is a woman, and then when I go to the funeral home for an autopsy, I ask you what happened to Li Erya. Button, the way you looked at that time was weird."

"Also, I picked up the buttons in the funeral home. You went to the room after you went back at night, and there were incense ashes on your fingers."

"Finally, it was this morning, and you continued to confuse your eyes, bringing up the words of the funeral home uncle, and wanting us to check the funeral home, so as to distract the police."

"This..." Director Liu listened to Lin Chen's words, he was silent, and looked at Luo Heshu with complicated eyes.

In the matter of Luo Heshu, it is true that the leader in the county was sorry for him. Could it be that Luo Heshu really started the rainy night serial murder case because of this?

"It's easy to prove that you are the murderer."

Lin Chen looked at Luo Heshu and said, "Go to your house to check the incense burner for your wife. If there are no two buttons in it, search it at home. If you can't get it at home, then I, Lin Chen, apologize to you. It's me who slandered you in front of so many!"

Lin Chen's words were sonorous and powerful, Luo Heshu's teeth were clenched, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Chen.

"You want to take revenge on those people in other ways, but it's your fault to kill innocent people 590." Lin Chen said to Luo Heshu: "Now, let the police go to your house to search and see the black patterns on Li Erya's clothes. The button, the white button on the sixth deceased person, is it in the incense burner in your house?"

"Go to Lao Luo's house to check immediately." Director Liu made a decisive decision and issued an order.

More than a dozen policemen agreed and were about to go to Luo Heshu's house. Zhang Tianan, who was beside him, understood at this time, why Lin Chen looked in the direction of the city and asked if he liked children. It turned out that Lin Chen was referring to It is Luo Xiaohui, the daughter of Luo Heshu.

"No need." Luo Heshu suddenly said after the dozen or so police officers walked out for a while.

The police stopped, and Chief Liu stared nervously at Luo and Shu.
