Chapter 31 Death Scene
Sorry, instructor, the body of an informant was found in the moat, I have to go to the scene.
Miao Hua was standing up and said in a deep voice.
Before Li Mai could speak, Miao Hua hesitated for a moment and asked, Instructor, if you have time, can you help me see? The terrorists in the northwest have their methods of committing crimes, which are completely new to the Nangang Municipal Bureau, and it is very difficult to detect. You used to carry out crackdown operations and must be familiar with them.
Li Mai was embarrassed, Haohao was about to finish school, he had to go to the market to buy vegetables and cook, and then pick up the children. Looking up, he saw Miao Huazheng's expression, and he also understood that it must be very difficult. This outstanding student from the training camp that year was so frowning.
When I think of not killing the Northwest terrorist gang that sneaked into Nangang for one day, Nangang will not be at peace all day. Maybe those inhumane bastards will sneak into the school to hijack students, or even attack the students directly.
There are many examples of this.
OK, I'll go with you.
Miao Hua was overjoyed. He had seen the instructor's ability with his own eyes. Although it was a special forces, Li Mai also gave them a lesson in case investigation and analysis. Later, Miao Huazheng realized that the Short Knife Commando was actually an attack team of the military's intelligence department, and it required its strong reconnaissance capabilities.
This is the same logic as the police's solution.
Li Mai drove and followed the location given by Miao Huazheng and rushed all the way to the bank of the western section of the moat. From a distance, he saw several police cars parked there, pulling the cordon, and the citizens watching nearby had been dispersed.
Miao Team.
Miao Team.
The police at the scene whispered hello and raised the cordon.
Miao Hua was leading Li Mai in. Miao Hua, whom Li Mai had just seen, was squatting beside a wet body and checking. Seeing Miao Hua coming, she got up and handed over a pair of rubber gloves.
The corpse was discovered by several fishing enthusiasts. The subordinate introduced it and pointed to the upstream dam. According to their description, the corpse floated down from the dam. After being salvaged, it was found that the corpse had ropes tied to the naked wrists and feet, and the ropes on the naked feet had broken marks. The forensic doctor initially judged that the death time was between 1:00 and 3:00 on March 18, which was last night.
Miao Hua was looking at the corpse, his face was terrible cold. The corpse had begun to swollen and could hardly see clearly, but he could still easily identify it. This was the social informant he developed, nicknamed Xiao Hei.
The forensic doctor who was wearing the Dabai Gua came over and said: Initial judgment, the deceased drowned. Judging from the ropes broken on the naked part of his feet, it should be that he tied up a heavy object and threw it into the river, causing death. The deceased was hit hard with high intensity during his lifetime, and there were signs of bleeding in his internal organs.
Miao Hua was nodding, and the forensic doctor walked away and continued to examine the body.
Li Mai listened, but his eyes slowly looked at this moat.
The moat is actually a natural river, which was later rectified and expanded and existed as a scenic river in the urban area. Because of its strong protection, the river water is pollution-free all year round and there are many fish, making it the first choice for fishing enthusiasts.
Large tracts of turf are planted on both sides of the river, with trees and stone benches dotted, extending to the road along the river on both sides. Upstream is a long-lasting dam. This dam was built in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and this area was still farmland, so it played a role in irrigation.
As the urban area expanded, this nameless dam lost its original function and gradually became the memory of the older generation.
Before the rainy season comes, the water flow in the moat will always be very smooth. Based on the current water flow velocity, it only takes twelve minutes to float here from the dam blocking position.
Finally, Li Mai's eyes fell on the rope at the naked foot of the corpse, and then moved to the rope at the wrist tied in front of him.
Miao Huazheng's voice was low and said to Li Mai, "This person is an informant I have finally developed. He is familiar with the local people and provides me with many clues."
After scanning the surroundings, he lowered his voice and said, after the Guomao bomb incident this morning, I called him to pay attention to the strange faces that have appeared recently.
He took a few words this morning very seriously.
Li Mai's brow jumped a few times.
In other words, Xiao Hei had been dead for several hours when Miao Hua was calling him? Is Miao Hua talking to a ghost?
Li Mai couldn't help but turn his eyes to the corpse. He could see that the death time given by the forensic doctor was very accurate, which means that there was no doubt about Xiao Hei's death time. Therefore, there was only one possibility that someone pretended to be Xiao Hei and talked with Miao Huazheng and deceived the criminal investigation captain.
Something interesting.
Li Mai said lightly, walked towards the body, squatted down, and observed carefully. The police didn't know who the young man was. Seeing the captain's respectful appearance, they thought he was an agent from the provincial department, so naturally they did not dare to stop Li Mai's behavior.
Suddenly, Li Mai frowned, and under everyone's surprise gaze, he actually approached the corpse's mouth and slashed his nose a few times.
Oh my God, the corpse was soaked in the water for more than ten hours, and it was already smelling foul. Even the forensic doctor who often deals with various corpses worked with masks, and he actually got so close to smell the smell of the corpse.
Li Mai stood up slowly, thinking about something.
Miao Hua was coming and asked in a low voice: Instructor, have you discovered something?
Li Mai nodded. This is not the first scene.
What
The forensic doctor on the side called out first. He took off his mask, but he was a forensic doctor in his early forties, who seemed to be experienced.
He came over and said seriously: Why do you think this is not the first scene?
Before Li Mai could speak, he pointed to the dam. The deceased drowned in the dam. He also pointed to the rope at the naked foot of the corpse. Based on the nail damage marks and broken ropes on his hands, it can be judged that the deceased had struggled before his life and could almost break the rope that tied the heavy objects. But he failed. The rope was mostly broken, and some of the remaining ones were still connected to the heavy objects. With the impact of the water flow, the remaining rope broke under the force, the body floated out of the water surface, and then floated here along the river. You said that this was not the first scene, but the dam was definitely the first scene.
Li Mai nodded, shook his head again, and said, your analysis is very reasonable, but the dam blocking is not the first site. Even the first site is not within a radius of ten kilometers.
The forensic doctor was a little angry. He had been in this business for almost twenty years and had never made such a mistake. The first time he was denied his judgment in public, it was hard to put down his face.
Smiling slightly, Li Mai waved his hand to signal the forensic doctor to be calm, pointed to the head of the corpse, and said, there was a residual fishy smell in the nasal cavity of the deceased.
Everyone was stunned and didn't react. Miao Hua's eyebrows jumped.
Pointing to the moat, Li Mai said that the moat is Tamsui River, where does the fishy smell come from? The deceased died by suffocating a large amount of sea water. Therefore, this is definitely not the first scene.
Miao Hua continued: In other words, the deceased was transferred here after his death, and the murderer created a second scene.
Li Mai nodded, pointed at the deceased's hands and feet and said that if the deceased drowned in the moat, then his struggle must have been very intense at that time. However, the traces on the wrists and feet we see now are not very obvious. Based on this point, it can be concluded that the fingers and ropes on the broken feet of the deceased's fingers and feet are all traces created by the murderer.
Finally, Li Mai smiled and said, "I suggest you dissect the body, and I believe you will get more useful clues."
Except for Miao Huazheng, everyone else was shocked.
It's not because of Li Mai's analysis, but because he can actually smell the fishy smell of the sea in the nose of the corpse
You know, after pouring a lot of fresh water, even if there is a strong smell of sea fish, it will be washed very lightly
All I can say is that this person's sense of smell is as sensitive as a dog
Miao Hua was not surprised by this. He had seen Li Mai's greatness during the training camp.
However, the problem arose again. Miao Huazheng, who was in deep thought, frowned and asked: But why did the murderer do this? The crime scene was transferred to increase trouble for our investigation, so why did we design the body to surface?
Li Mai smiled, but walked towards his Junjie car. Miao Hua was rushing to follow and stopped beside the car. Miao Hua was taking out a cigarette, handing it to Li Mai, and lit it for him.
After taking a few puffs of cigarettes, Li Mai slowly put away the faint smile on his face and became serious.
He asked: Remember carefully, did you feel anything abnormal during the morning call?
Miao Hua was frowning, thinking for a while, and slowly shook his head and said, "There is nothing wrong. I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out. According to time, when I called Xiao Hei, he had been dead for at least five hours. How could he answer the phone? It didn't seem to be recorded in advance. No one knew what I was going to say to him.
Li Mai smiled thoughtfully, thought for a while, he patted Miao Huazheng on the shoulder and said, "What is certain now is that Xiao Hei's death is related to the violent terrorist gang you are pursuing, and it is also closely related to the China Trade Bomb Case in the morning."
He paused and whispered, "I have to remind you that there are masters among the other party."
Miao Hua became solemn and vaguely excited. What should I do
Li Mai laughed and said, "You are the captain of the criminal investigation team, why do you do it?" You asked me to look at the sky. The sun was already setting and it slowly became dark. When I thought that Haohao was already hungry after school, Li Mai became anxious. He said, I have to go back and contact me by phone."
As he said that, he reported the number to Miao Huazheng, and then got in the car and left quickly. Miao Huazheng wondered when the instructor was so anxious, so he had to give up.
Chapter completed!
