While the manhunt is in progress

Chapter 954 Analysis step by step
"Start with people?" Zhang Junhua glanced at Song He while waiting for the red light, but saw that he was carefully looking at the photos of the crime scene. Zhang Junhua subconsciously slowed down his breathing with his serious and focused appearance. .

And Song He, who focused on the photos of the scene, quickly completed the incomplete crime scene that he had initially restored in his mind.

"Damn it!" Song He whispered, turned to look at Zhang Junhua, and asked in surprise, "Is the crime scene so badly damaged?"

"Either way, there's no need to carry out the on-site investigation work." Seeing the red light turn green, Zhang Junhua pushed the shift lever angrily, stepped on it hard, and the police car roared through the intersection.

"Captain Zhang, relax, it's just that the ground was damaged, so it's not serious." Song He, who couldn't laugh or cry, comforted Zhang Junhua, pointing to the climbing rope tied around the necks of the two deceased people and said:

"Team Zhang, look, the climbing ropes used to hoist the two deceased are of the same style, and the knots are tied in the same way, which shows that the murderer is very familiar with these two knotting techniques."

"But what makes me more concerned is that there are many differences between the two crime scenes."

"Huh?" Zhang Junhua became curious when he heard the words. He wanted to discuss the case seriously with Song He, so he simply parked the police car on the side of the road, turned on the ceiling light inside the car and asked, "Which places?"

"The first is the height of the feet of the two deceased from the ground." Song He took out two survey reports, and then took out two photos of the scene that took the whole picture of the deceased: "No. 1 was found that the feet of the deceased were 135 centimeter."

"The feet of the deceased who was found in No. 2 were suspended 118 centimeters from the ground."

"Although the difference is only 17 centimeters, if you let the same person look at it at close range, it will be two completely different looking up angles."

Looking at the photos and reports in Song He's hand, Zhang Junhua nodded, his brows furrowed, and he asked, "What else?"

"Yes." Song He took out two more photos, but this time the photos appeared where the climbing ropes hanging the two dead people were in contact with the branches above the dead people's heads.

Zhang Junhua followed the trend and found that the climbing ropes in the two photos were wrapped half a circle on the branches and then fell down. There was no obvious abnormality, so he couldn't help being a little puzzled.

"Team Zhang, look here." Song He pointed to the No.1 photo of the deceased, and said slowly: "Judging from the time and sunlight in the photo, the end of the climbing rope that hangs the deceased is on the west side, connected to the tree trunk. One end is on the east side."

"However, the No. 2 mountaineering rope that was found dead is completely opposite to it."

"Let me think about it..." Zhang Junhua was taken aback, and while looking at the photo as Song He pointed, he also began to search for the memory of the crime scene in his mind. Suddenly, his eyes widened: "It really is!"

"There are several other places." Song He paused and took out two photos again. This time, the photos showed two parts of the crime scene where the climbing ropes were hung down and fixed on the tree trunks.

This time, Zhang Junhua, who was successfully aroused by Song He, began to look for the difference between the two photos.

Soon, he discovered that apart from the same knot, the rest of the two photos were more or less different!
"Team Zhang, take a look." However, Song He didn't intend to give Zhang Junhua time to make a detailed summary at this time, so he took the initiative to point out one by one:
"After the two climbing ropes hang down from the branches, the winding height, number of turns, direction and the position of the fixing knot on the trunk are all different."

Following what Song He pointed out, Zhang Junhua, who began to compare the differences between the two photos, frowned and said thoughtfully: "Officer Song, what do you mean..."

"Yes, I suspect that the murderer of the two cases is not the same person." Song He neatly arranged the displayed photos together and explained in detail: "Team Zhang, look here."

"Judging from the wear marks on the branches caused by the climbing rope, when the two deceased were hung up by the murderer, the murderer was standing about [-] centimeters away from the deceased."

"And if the murderer is the same person, then the hanging height, the position of the fixed knot and the winding height of the climbing rope on the tree trunk of the deceased at the two crime sites should be almost the same."

"However, the fact is that the above three heights of the first crime scene are all higher than the second crime scene. Coupled with the differences in other details, I think it is very likely that the murderer is not the same person."

"Tsk... No wonder I always feel something is wrong when I follow the direction of the crime committed by the same person." Zhang Junhua scratched his head anxiously, and his eyebrows became pimples: "But if it is not the same person who committed the crime, the trouble will be big..."

The more worrying thing is yet to come...

Muttering inwardly, Song He took advantage of the fact that the police car was parked on the side of the road without worrying about safety issues, so he continued with peace of mind: "Captain Zhang, there is another guess that I think I need to say."

Hearing this, Zhang Junhua shifted his gaze from the photo to Song He, followed his words and asked, "What guess?"

"I read the investigation report and relevant trace identification of the crime scene of No. 2 deceased, and did a physical reconstruction of the murderer." Song He said, picking up the autopsy report of No. 1, who was found deceased: "Both of them The physical characteristics are basically consistent.”

"What?" Zhang Junhua exclaimed and was stunned on the spot: "How is this possible..."

"I also find it unbelievable." Song He pointed to the on-site inspection report of No. 2 where the deceased was found: "However, Team Zhang, when a person is doing something, he will leave a lot of things behind. traces of one's own habits."

"In the view of the murderer who hung the No. 2 deceased, no matter the height of the knot or the hanging position of the deceased, it was a height that made his subconscious feel comfortable and easy to operate."

"Combined with the physical characteristics of the deceased No. 1 who was found, not only his height of 1.7 meters can be well adapted to this height, but his weight, physique and strength can also enable him to hang the deceased."

"The most important thing is that it was mentioned in the autopsy report that No. 1 was found that the residues in the digestive tract of the deceased were mostly dietary fiber, and most of them were concentrated in the intestinal tract."

Zhang Junhua, who was full of disbelief, still didn't believe in Song He's speculation at this time, but the long-term investigation without progress made him feel that what Song He said was the truth behind the case.

Song He, who had guessed what Zhang Junhua was thinking, continued: "According to the location and degree of digestion of the residual digesta, it can be judged that the time interval between their deaths is between half an hour and one hour."

"And one of them ate meat, but the other didn't, which means that cyanide entered No. 2's body along with the meat, and No. 1's body knew about it."

After listening to Song He's words, Zhang Junhua put his hand on his forehead and sighed in a low voice: "It seems that this is true, otherwise there is no way to explain why one died of cyanide poisoning and the other died of blunt trauma to the back of the head."

"And if you think about things together, it should be that after he hung up the second deceased person who was found, he was killed on the way back to the road and hung on a tree."

"The person who killed him at the same time was probably the accomplice who killed No. 2 and found the deceased with him."

During the conversation, a series of images appeared in Zhang Junhua's mind. There were three people eating together, one of them suddenly fell to the ground struggling in pain, and the murderer hung the dead from a tree branch.

However, in these pictures, apart from the two unidentified dead, there is also a man with an indistinct body shape and appearance, which makes Zhang Junhua very concerned.

"Captain Zhang is worried about how to determine the real murderer?" Song He saw Zhang Junhua's expression and knew what he was thinking about.

"Is it possible not to have a headache." Zhang Junhua gritted his teeth and said, "Officer Song, you have also read the interview and investigation records. It's not that we didn't work hard, but the result can be said to be nothing."

"Not to mention the dead man whose face and fingers were smashed to pieces, even the body found by the reporter, whose identity has not yet been confirmed."

"And if the identities of these two people are unclear, it will be even harder to figure out the identity of the real murderer."

"It's really difficult." Song He echoed, and then thoughtfully said: "But it's not impossible, after all, the two deceased are clearly placed here, and if you analyze them carefully, you can still follow the clues to clarify their identities of."

"Oh?" Zhang Junhua's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he moved closer: "Officer Song has a solution?"

"Thanks to the autopsy report." Song He pointed to the two autopsy reports and smiled, then put away his smile and said seriously: "At the beginning, I judged from the news that No. 2 found by the reporter was found to be a manual laborer .”

"However, due to the limited conditions of the news photos, it is impossible to determine what he did. But after looking at some photos in the autopsy report, I found some contradictions."

"That is, the muscles of the waist, abdomen and shoulders of the two deceased are much more developed than ordinary people, in line with the characteristics of manual laborers, but their lower limb muscles are no different from ordinary people."

"It is important to know that there are many types of work that often use the waist, abdomen and shoulders in manual labor, but the work that only uses these two parts but not the legs is the only work such as high-altitude work."

"Indeed." Zhang Junhua, who had been following Song He's thoughts, nodded upon hearing the words: "A lot of high-altitude operations require sitting on a hanging basket or hanging board, and leaning forward to complete them. The muscles of the waist, abdomen and shoulders will naturally be more developed."

"Yes." Song He clicked on the photos of the two deceased and said: "After confirming their occupations, I looked at Team Zhang's visit and investigation records, and found that you have compared the surrounding construction sites and personnel mobility. I visited all the big places.”

"But even so, I found no valuable clues, so I carefully looked at the autopsy report and related pictures, and suddenly found that the body fat percentage of these two people is a bit high."

"Actually, this is not a problem for ordinary people, but it is not normal for them. After all, an excessive body fat rate will not only increase the weight soaring and increase the risk of working at heights, but also affect their movements. .”

"Officer Song, are you saying..." Zhang Junhua quickly thought of the signs of calluses fading on the palms of the two deceased after hearing the words, and suddenly said: "They no longer engage in high-altitude operations!"

"It looks like this from the relevant traces." Song He nodded and continued to analyze: "Judging from the fact that the muscles in their waist, abdomen and shoulders have not degenerated significantly, they have not been separated from the physical labor for a long time."

"However, the rising body fat rate shows that their living standards during this period are still very good, which means that when they leave their original jobs, their economic level has improved qualitatively compared to before."

"And it is very likely that he resigned because he suddenly became rich."

"Being targeted because of showing wealth?" Zhang Junhua muttered with a frown, and quickly shook his head to veto the possibility: "No! If you want to make money, there is no need to use such a ritualistic killing method."

"Team Zhang is right." Song He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "If it was murder for money, the murderer absolutely does not want the matter to be revealed, and will do everything possible to cover up the fact of the murder."

"The almost cruel method of punishing the two deceased people now shows that there must be some grudge that we don't know about between the murderer and the deceased, and this grudge is most likely related to the sudden wealth of the two deceased persons."

"Could it be that the victim's family did not report the kidnapping or extortion case? And then the family retaliated?" Zhang Junhua shook his head and said, "No, the real murderer obviously won the trust of the two deceased, obviously not the victim's family. things that arrived."

"Furthermore, No. 1 was found to be fatally wounded in the back of the head, which means that he once turned his back on the real murderer. Being able to expose his back so reassuringly shows that he had always trusted the real murderer before his death."

"Could it be that the uneven distribution of spoils is causing internal strife..."

"Team Zhang, we can't guess." Song He interrupted Zhang Junhua's endless speculation after getting excited, and said seriously: "But I'm sure that the real culprit is definitely not the companion who worked with them at heights. "

"Hmm..." Zhang Junhua rolled his eyes, and vaguely felt that this was indeed the case, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he asked, "Why?"

"Because of the size." Song He said firmly: "No.2 The crime scene where the deceased was found was that the deceased's feet were 118 centimeters from the ground, the knots on the tree trunk were 123 centimeters from the ground, and the position of the climbing rope wrapped around the tree trunk was 119 centimeters from the ground. [-] centimeters from the ground."

"But if you look at the crime scene where No. 1 was found dead, the three heights are 135 centimeters, 140 centimeters and 137 centimeters, generally nearly [-] centimeters higher."

"And we know that No. 2 was found dead and was hanged by No. 1, who was found dead, and No. 1 was found dead and was killed by the real murderer and hung from a tree."

"Therefore, the real murderer's height is definitely above 1.8 meters [-], and his weight is correspondingly above [-] kilograms. He is the tallest, heaviest and strongest person among the three."

"Such a person may engage in manual labor, but it is absolutely impossible to become a professional spiderman, because this occupation is too dangerous for him."

"Wait a minute!" Zhang Junhua suddenly remembered something and asked quickly: "But he can tie knots as professionally as a professional Spider-Man. How do you explain this?"

"It's very simple." Song He smiled confidently: "He is not a professional spiderman, but he can master all kinds of knots that professional spidermen can master under the influence of his ears and eyes."

"And this is also the reason why the two deceased trusted him so much."
