Case closed

Chapter 13 The Severed Finger I

Cui Zhen looked at Jiang Shan, "I'm surprised, I'm still a psychology teacher."

Jiang Shan looked at Cui Zhen. During the peripheral investigation, the teachers of Cui Zhen’s school basically commented on Cui Zhen as being rich and gentle. In short, she was born from a big family with a golden key. No one would have guessed that. This is the truth hidden behind the money.

Cui Ming's case is closed, and the rest is to close the case and hand over the prisoner. However, Jiang Shan did not close the case as soon as possible after solving the case like the previous cases, but explained it. The details must continue to be verified, and there is no rush to close the case.When Lin An heard it, since the boss said that he was not in a hurry to close the case, there must be his meaning, and this is not something he should worry about.

Jiang Shan did not rush into the next one, but continued to study the file that was placed in his office, and then went to the forensic department from time to time, looking for Situ Qian and Xu Yi, to discuss some issues about the corpse .

Seeing that Jiang Shan had been staying in the forensic department for a longer and longer time, Xu Yi said, "Team Jiang, if you are really interested in forensic science, why don't I lend you a few books on forensic science so that you can study on your own."

Jiang Shan cleared his throat in embarrassment, "Hey, where do I have the time?"

Situ Qian poured a cup of tea for Jiang Shan: "I don't think you've been very busy recently. Why, Cui Ming's case is over, so you're not going to look at other cases?"

Jiang Shan: "Don't worry, Cui Zhi has Gu Lang watching over there, the progress will not be slow." Jiang Shan looked around the room, trying to find something to change the subject, Jiang Shan saw a bouquet of red roses on the window sill, Can't help laughing out loud.

Jiang Shan: "I said, Situ, since Xu Yi came to the forensic department, you have changed your sex, and you even put flowers on it."

Xu Yi rubbed his forehead in embarrassment, and Situ Qian shook his head, "Where am I so interested, the girl from my forensic department has been missed since she first arrived."

Jiang Shan: "Hey, there is such a thing, Xu Yi, you can't agree easily, man, you have to torture him more..."

Xu Yi hurriedly interrupted Captain Jiang's long speech, and let him continue, I'm afraid he could even think about Xu Yi's marriage in the future, "Captain Jiang, you are listening to Section Chief Situ fooling you, there is no such thing as a thing at all." Son, it is a senior brother I met during my internship before, and I heard that I also work here, so I just want to express my concern for my senior fellow from the same school, and he is just being polite."

Jiang Shan pondered for a while, "You are polite? Okay, then what does he do?"

Jiang Shan was directly confused by Xu Yi's question, "I don't know very well, it seems that my family owns a company or something, and I haven't inquired about it."

Gu Lang opened the door and came in at this time, "You guys are in a meeting, it's so lively."

Jiang Shan: "We care about the emotional life of our colleagues."

Gu Lang heard, "Hey, there is gossip, who? Who wants to come to our police force to rob people."

Xu Yi casually took a list, "Well, I have to go to the trace inspection to deliver the documents, so I'm leaving first." He made an excuse and hurried away.

Gu Lang looked at Xu Yi's back in a hurry, "She will leave as soon as I come, does she like me!"

Jiang Shan and Situ Qian glanced at each other, and turned their heads collectively, as if they would die if they didn't make jokes.

Gu Lang almost forgot the business, "Hey, I'm here to urge you for the autopsy report from the forensic department, hand it in quickly, we're waiting for it."

Jiang Shan: "Why are you in such a hurry? This is the first time I've seen you come to press for the autopsy report."

Gu Lang looked like you wronged me, "What did Captain Jiang say? I have always been diligent in my work, hard-working, straightforward and neat. I take national tasks as my responsibility, social stability as my responsibility, and people's interests as my goal... "

Situ Qian threw a file bag over, "Don't memorize all the political knowledge you know in a while, talk about business."

Gu Lang sat directly at Situqian's desk, "We're deciding the case of Cui Zhi and that case as a serial murder case, we have to compare the similarities and differences of the corpses with the autopsy report." Gu Lang turned his head to look at Jiang Shan, " Hey, how is the investigation of Cui Ming's case over there, is it closed?"

Jiang Shan glanced at Situ Qian, "No, there are many things that have not been investigated clearly."

Gu Lang looked at Jiang Shan suspiciously, "Really, I think the police officers in your team are fine, besides, you should hurry up before you finish the investigation, you always come to the forensic department to tease our Chief Situ, I still I thought you were done and wanted you to come and help me."

The corner of Jiang Shan's mouth twitched, who could have you coming to the forensic room so frequently, Jiang Shan stood up, "You are right, I have to investigate the case quickly."

Jiang Shan went back to his office and received a call from Lin An, "Captain Jiang, there is no trace of what you asked me to investigate."

Jiang Shan, "Can't find anything?"

Lin An couldn't sit still on the other end, "Team Jiang, it's not that I can't find out, it's that although Cui Ming is suspected of being involved in gangsters, he really didn't participate in anything. I didn't just investigate Wu Yamin, There are also a few people he knows who entered the industry at the same time, but they are all low-level gangsters, and they don’t even know that there is Cui Yicheng in their organization, er, that is Cui Ming, they don’t even know this person.”

Jiang Shan thought for a while, "Forget it, this matter is over, you can come back."

Lin An readily agreed, and then comforted Jiang Shan, "Team Jiang, don't pay too much attention to this matter, I think this Cui Zhen must have deliberately pointed out Cui Ming's crimes in order to make it more difficult to solve the case, don't you?" Are you saying this is Cui Zhen trying to mislead us?"

Naturally, Jiang Shan couldn't explain to Lin An that his own investigation of Cui Ming's criminal involvement was not because of Cui Ming's case, so he could only vaguely say, "Maybe, that's it, you come back and close the case."

Cui Ming's case is over, and Gu Lang's case about Cui Zhi also has some clues.

According to the previous discussion, Gu Lang found all the unsolved and suspicious cases in these years according to the keywords, and the investigation team sent out also got some feedback. Just as he was preparing for a meeting, Jiang Shan entered the conference room.

Gu Lang: "These are what we have already found. The case elements include 'ether', 'mechanical death', and 'severed fingers'. They are all here. Including this one, there are four cases in total."

Jiang Shan nodded and told Gu Lang by the way: "Since you are fully responsible for this case, I will not follow. If you are short of manpower, I can also be assigned by you."

Gu Lang: "You're not following? Hasn't the murderer of Cui Ming been caught? Do you have any other cases?"

Jiang Shan smiled: "You must have found a lot of things. If I take over now, all the details will have to be reviewed again, which is a waste of time. You hold your meeting, and I will just listen."

Gu Lang shrugged and called everyone to gather around, "These are the four vertical and horizontal cases we have found so far. In fact, everyone knows about each case. I will briefly sort out the intersection points of the four cases with you."

Gu Lang pointed to the information of the first case, "In these four cases, the modus operandi was to use ether first to cause the victim to lose the ability to resist. The kitchen knife that cut off the fingers cut the victim's neck three times in a row, and the victim died of a ruptured aorta and dislocation of the cervical spine."

Gu Lang continued to broadcast the information of the last three cases on the big screen: "The modus operandi of the last three cases is relatively mature. In the second and third cases, the victim's mobile phone charging cable was strangled, causing the victim Suffocated to death, in the fourth case, that is Cui Zhi’s death case, the victim was drowned in the bathtub by the murderer, and in the last three cases, his fingers were cut off after death.”

Jiang Shan signaled Gu Lang to stop, "I have no objection to the series of the last three cases, but in the first case, the scene of the crime was very bloody, completely inconsistent with the scene of the last three cases, and the finger, he Is it possible that the murderer inadvertently chopped it down while beheading the victim?"

Gu Lang nodded, "We also assumed this question at the beginning, but look at this picture. This picture shows the posture of the deceased when he died. The deceased was lying on his back with his left hand at his side, which was basically close to the torso of the corpse, while the right hand was obviously far away from the whole body. body, and the other four fingers tend to be close together, it can be seen that the murderer's target is only the little finger of the right hand."

Gu Lang zoomed in on the photo of the deceased's feet again, "Then here is the next thing. The deceased's home was made of wooden floors. There is a very obvious trace of the feet kicking back and forth. Generally, the legs were straightened, curled up, and then straightened again. process, so the removal of corpses after death is ruled out.”

Gu Lang called out another picture of physical evidence: "This charging cable was found near the corpse, so we roughly restored the situation at the scene of the crime. After struggling reflexively, the murderer panicked for a moment, gave up the idea of ​​strangling the deceased with a charging cable, and directly hacked with a kitchen knife in the panic."

Jiang Shan nodded, indicating that he understood.

Gu Lang continued to analyze: "It is not difficult to find that after the murderer experienced the severe pain of the severed finger in the first case and struggled slightly, the last three cases all chose the insurance method of killing first and then cutting off the finger. And Judging from the time, the first case occurred six years ago, and since then, the murderer has maintained a frequency of about one case every two years, around March, April and May, and this kind of spring is basically more regular."

Gu Lang motioned to the police officer who was investigating the peripheral information to continue.

"Team Jianggu, according to our interviews in the periphery, we found that the four deceased had one thing in common: they were remarried, they all had ex-wives, and they all relied on their ex-wife's financial resources to develop their careers at the beginning. In addition, there is no similarity between the four deceased, whether their economic or personal relationships are good, and there is no suspicious intersection."

Gu Lang: "The murderer thought he was Bao Zheng's reincarnation, and he only wanted to kill Chen Shimei?" After speaking, he continued to look at the other party, "Then, there is nothing else, do you have any details, such as which ex-wife of the deceased particularly wanted to kill her?" Who, apart from the other party cheating, are there any other major conflicts."
