I'm Not a Detective
Chapter 174 The Hanged Man and the Hanged Rabbit
A quarter of the underground floor of the Hirarano Police Station is a gun warehouse, which stores a certain amount of guns, ammunition and police equipment. It can also be used by police officers to store and maintain guns, while the other three-quarters are all warehouses, dedicated to To seal past case files and evidence.
It's windy here, the air is damp and cold, it's silent, and the walls are a bit slippery to the touch. After all, the next floor is the police station's temporary morgue. It always feels like it's haunted, and even the lights are dim as if they've been smeared with human oil. , showing a miserable yellow color.
"This is it, this room and this room, the case files from eight years ago are all in there." A staff member in the forensics department with a blue hat pointed to two rooms the same size as ordinary classrooms, and motioned to Takeshi Nanahara and others You can do it yourself.
Well, it’s a bit unbelievable to say that the staff of the Blue Hat Forensic Section who often walk around crime scenes are all underground creatures. When not on assignment, their working place is in the basement of the police station, doing criminal cases. They are responsible for all chores, from autopsies, management and maintenance of firearms, to storage of files and evidence. In some places, the forensics section is even responsible for raising dogs - the Hirano Police Station does not have search dogs. If there were, they would The job of feeding the dogs is also theirs.
Qing Jian Liuli bowed and thanked her, and watched the blue hat leave curiously, finally solving a mystery.
Generally, there are blue hats everywhere at crime scenes, taking photos, extracting fingerprints, collecting evidence, and moving bodies. But when I came to the criminal department of the police station, I couldn't see any of them. It seemed that these people would emerge from the ground only after a crime was committed. It was the same as before, but now it is finally clear that these people really emerged from the ground, and they usually don't work above the ground at all.
Takeshi Nanabahara ignored these other things and looked at the dusty door with disdain. He took out his mask and put it on. He poked Qingmi Liuli and signaled her to stop being dazed and quickly opened the door for him, a "blind detective".
Qing Jian Liuli came to her senses and quickly opened the door, but as soon as the door opened, a large cloud of dust fell down, and she couldn't help but sneeze.
Taiji Okuno and Hidakaji frowned, waved their hands to disperse the dust, and went inside first to turn on the light. The wattage was lower than that in the hallway, but it was still bright.
"Let's start, find all the cases involving murder and wounding, especially the unsolved cases where the victim is a woman." Takeshi Nanahara entered the door and took a hidden look and determined that the file management of the Hirano Police Station was very poor. The crotch is not like those in the library that are arranged by type and time for people to see. Instead, they are full of large and small cardboard boxes, piled up in a haphazard manner. If you can put a label on them, you are doing your duty.
But then again, before computers and the Internet became popular, being able to save files like this was just fine.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has also conducted re-examinations of cases before. As a result, the initial investigation files, interview records and exhibits were missing more than a year later. Hirano can still find files from eight years ago, which were placed in Japan. This police force is considered to have passed the test.
Okuno Taiji, Hidakaji and Qingmi Ruri heard his order and immediately took action. They checked the labels of each box one by one. If they involved murder or injury, they opened it to determine whether it had been solved and the gender of the victim. They filtered it for him first. Once, if there is any problem, hand it over to him and let him "fumble" and check it carefully.
There was a lot of dust, and when I rummaged through the box, there was even more. Qing Jian Liuli kept sneezing, and found an unsolved injury case, so he moved it out to Takeshi Nanabahara. Seeing that he was hiding outside the door, he was fine, so he couldn't help it. Complained: "You feel comfortable..."
When she becomes a police officer, she will definitely make major reforms to the police station and require everyone to pay attention to cleanliness on a daily basis. If nothing happens, she will come down to check the sanitation work and ensure that the place is spotless.
Takeshi Nanabahara was looking through a box and said angrily: "You asked for this. We were so comfortable at home, but you had to be deceived into working for nothing. Now you deserve to be left in the dust."
Seeing that Liuli had stopped farting, Qing turned back and continued to search. There must be more than a thousand boxes of various sizes in the two rooms, which would be enough for them to work for a while - not that more than a thousand people were killed in Hirano every year. There are also a large number of thefts and violence cases.
Takeshi Nanabahara settled down to work. After all, he had received the money. He looked at the cases one by one, trying to find a case that had some similarities with the "Tuesday Night Serial Murder Case". For example, he also died of massive blood loss but not as much. There were many cuts, or they were hanged and then killed, or they were killed and only the blood was taken away. But he kept going until noon. He checked all the suspected cases and couldn't find any similar ones.
"Perhaps the murderer has imagined and simulated it many times in his mind, so the method of committing the crime was very stable and mature from the beginning?" Qing Jian Liuli has now become a little gray man. His hair, face and hands are all covered with dust, and he finds that there is no gain. Frustrated, but still actively giving advice.
"It is true that this possibility cannot be ruled out." Takeshi Nanabahara did not waver, stood up and paced, and said in deep thought, "But it is unlikely. There is a difference between imagination and reality after all, and they also need to be revised. It is impossible to remain unchanged, especially for the first time. It should be obviously different from the other times... It should be the time when he couldn't control his inner impulse the most, and it should also be the time closest to his residence."
Qingjian Ruri immediately pointed out the reality: "But now I haven't found anything, what should I do?"
Taiji Okuno thought for a while and suggested: "If this method doesn't work, then let's go to the crime scene and have a look? The scene of the sixth case is still protected. Maybe Nanabahara-san can find some useful information."
Qin Yuanwu pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head.
He is not really blind. In fact, he has seen a lot of photos of the crime scene. He has even carefully analyzed the material of the rope and the way it was knotted. He has not found any useful traces - the most common nylon rope anywhere in Japan. They can all be purchased. The knotting method is an ordinary sailor's knot, and there are many people who know it. Apart from the fact that the murderer is right-handed, the murderer did not leave any distinguishing features.
Therefore, there is no need to go to the scene again, and the character and identity of the murderer cannot be revealed in a forest.
He thought for a while, but he didn't think of any other breakthrough for the time being. He cast his eyes on the other doors in the corridor and said, "Let's take a look at it when we pass by the scene. First, we should also go through the cases nine and ten years ago."
At least make sure this road is unusable before considering changing the road.
Okuno Taiji had no objection. Takeshi Nanabahara had the final say in this group, but Hidakaji raised his hand and looked at his watch and reminded: "It's almost noon, do you want to eat first?"
"Then let's eat first. After dinner, we'll get back to work." Takeshi Nanahara was not in a hurry. This case had been delayed for seven or eight years, so there was no shortage of time.
The four of them didn't want to climb the stairs anymore. Taiji Okuno found a place for Takeshi Nanahara and Ruri Kiyomi to wash themselves briefly. Hidakaji quickly went to get a lunch box and everyone just ate a little.
Qingmi Ruri recognized the lunch box as soon as she saw it, and said happily: "It's the lunch box made by Yoshino-san."
Takeshi Nanahara tried the taste, nodded and smiled: "It's okay, I didn't cut any corners." After that, he thought for a while, and then told Qingmi Liuli, "You can go back and let her complete the order every Tuesday during this period." Now, don’t receive individual visitors after dark, and take Xiaokui home as soon as possible.”
Although the time between the murderer's crimes is extremely long, about three months from the previous cycle, we still don't know who the murderer is, let alone what stimulation he received, and how he will change. I'm not afraid of ten thousand. Just in case, it’s better to be more careful!
He was still counting on Sister Naokawa to help him make money in the future, but he couldn't die.
"I understand. When I send you home, I will ride there and ask her to treat Tuesday as a rest day and do less business." Qingjian Liuli agreed immediately, but after taking a bite of rice, Then he said thoughtfully, "You said that the murderer chose Tuesday to commit the crime. Could that be his day off?"
Takeshi Nanabahara picked the unpalatable food into Qingmi Ruri's lunch box and said casually: "The possibility is very high, so I feel that Professor Hirakawa's criminal psychological portrait is not realistic. The murderer should have a serious job and a happy life. There’s a certain regularity.”
Taiji Okuno felt quite comfortable eating. He raised his head when he heard this and said, "Then do you want to tell Professor Hirakawa and let him correct it?"
Takeshi Nanahara shook his head and smiled: "It's not necessary. Everyone relies on guessing in this kind of thing, and no one can convince anyone. For example, he may think that the murderer has severe paranoia or obsessive-compulsive disorder, or that Tuesday has special meaning to the murderer, even if the murderer is autistic Even if I have nothing to do at home, I will still choose this day to commit the crime. I can’t deny the possibility, so until the murderer is caught, I can’t argue about right and wrong.”
For him, it would be good for Hirakawa Shi to check for mental illness. If the murderer can be found, it will be convenient for him to return home. There is no need to compete with who can guess.
Qingjian Liuli thought for a while and asked curiously: "What kind of job has Tuesday off?"
Hidaka thought for a while and said: "There are many jobs that are off on Tuesdays, such as the catering industry and tourist attractions. Friday nights and weekends are usually the busiest. On Monday, you have to take inventory and replenish goods, and on Thursday, you have to prepare for the next three days. With heavy passenger flow, the rest days are usually Tuesday and Wednesday.”
Taiji Okuno also added: "Some factory assembly lines cannot be stopped, and employees will be assigned fixed breaks at different times each week. Some of them will take Tuesday off for a long time."
Qing Jian Liuli was disappointed. Speaking of which, there were too many people off on Tuesday, so it couldn't be used as a breakthrough in the case.
She took two mouthfuls of food, thought for a moment, and asked again: "Why did the murderer hang the victim upside down, force the victim to keep his eyes open, and take the victim's blood? Could it be related to Some kind of religious ceremony..."
As she was talking, a sudden flash of inspiration came to her, and she reacted directly to the crime. She said excitedly: "Wait a minute, I think I know why the murderer did what he did!"
Takeshi Nanahara looked at the lunch box that was almost knocked over and said dissatisfiedly: "Eat your meal, why are you so crazy..."
Qingjian Liuli didn't care whether he was happy or not, and said excitedly: "Don't you find that the victim fits an image very well?"
Damn it, I finally thought of it first, maybe I can directly seal the victory and play a huge role in catching the murderer!
I really didn’t expect that I suddenly made progress, started to become smarter, and could think of clues that I never thought of before!
Takeshi Nanahara straightened the lunch box and said strangely: "Isn't it just like the Hanged Man in the Tarot cards? What are you excited about?"
Qing Jian Liuli was stunned and said hesitantly: "Yes, it's the Hanged Man. You...you've seen it a long time ago?"
"I made it up in my head." Takeshi Nanahara pointed at his sunglasses, indicating that he was still blind and couldn't see. "When I was playing Tarot cards, you were still playing with mud. When I heard you describe the photos of the scene last night, it felt a bit like But is it important enough to jump up to?”
"Isn't this important?" Qingjian Liuli became more and more hesitant, feeling that this should be considered a big discovery in a mystery novel.
"If anything, what does this prove and how does it help find the murderer?"
Qing Jian Liuli hesitated for a moment, then slowly sat down, lowered her head and continued eating.
Damn it, it seems that it can only prove that the murderer is a pervert with mental problems, but he has been killing innocent people indiscriminately. He is a pervert with mental problems. It seems that without proof, it still does not help to find him - Tarot Cards Too Yesterday, she saw a few girls in the class getting together to use tarot cards to divine their love fortune. It is not uncommon in Japan to know the symbolic meaning of the Hanged Man.
This case is so difficult, I can’t find a clue at all!
She finished her bento honestly, and then went to the "warehouse" to work in disgrace. She worked really hard for the "justice" in her heart. While working hard, she was still thinking hard about where this case could go from here. Get started.
The murderer did not commit the crime eight years ago, and she had no hope nine years ago. She kept thinking wildly, but when she opened a box, a photo of a corpse with wide eyes suddenly came into view. Even though she was not timid, she was still frightened. I had to tremble all over.
She quickly looked at the details of the case under the dim light, her heart trembled again, and she said in a dry voice: "Well... I think I found the case you were looking for, but... even, uh... it doesn't necessarily mean I found it. Already..."
The corpse in the photo was a rabbit hung upside down, covered in blood. Even though the dead body was not a human, she still felt that the method of committing the crime was a bit like the "Tuesday Night Killer".
