Forensics

At six o'clock, Fuxing Electronics Factory.

The physical evidence looked around again, and found some wiped blood on the back of the iron shelf.

After finding these evidences and the crime scene, it is finally possible to delineate that the murder case is related to Fuxing Electronics Factory.

Shang Jun panicked, and made a disgraceful phone call to Zhang Xiaojie.

Gu Yanchen communicated with Deputy Director Dong to apply for the arrest process.

Due to the large number of suspects, the case is serious.

At night, after the process was completed, all the female workers in one dormitory were taken to the city bureau by police cars and placed in different interrogation rooms.

They transferred more than a dozen policemen from the criminal police team to interrogate the female workers overnight.

Shen Junci sent the blood samples in that storage room to the laboratory and signed the autopsy report.

Gu Yanchen had to work overtime tonight, and forensic doctor Shen went home from get off work by himself.

The next day, Shen Junci woke up very early, helped Gu Yanchen slip past Wuliang, and then went to the pet shop to see Xueya who was still drinking milk.

In just a few days, the kitten grew a little bigger, and its eyes were fully opened, but the fur hadn't fully grown yet.

The female shop assistant took a cat teasing stick, and the kitten jumped up and down, doing exercises.Shen Junci looked at it for a while, and suddenly felt that all the troubles in his heart disappeared.

After arriving at the City Bureau, Shen Junci went directly to the Criminal Investigation Building.

As soon as he entered the door of the observation room, Shen Junci saw Gu Yanchen and Bai Meng sitting inside, and the interrogation this morning had already started.

Shen Junci asked: "What, did someone confess anything last night?"

Gu Yanchen rubbed his temples: "No progress."

Last night, they interrogated for a total of three hours.

In the past, the interrogation could last all night, but now when handling cases, especially this kind of collective case, the interrogation must not be exhausted, otherwise it will be easy to be caught in the pigtails in the future, and there will be nothing left to say, and the confession may be withdrawn for this reason, so the police are very concerned about the case. Be very careful with this.

When they got up this morning, they had been going on for another hour.

Those seemingly weak girls were extremely firm, and none of them revised their confessions.

Bai Meng sighed: "These female workers are too tight-lipped, aren't they? They keep their mouths shut. Especially that Sun Yushi, who has a knack for pretending to be stupid."

Gu Yanchen raised his head and said, "I don't think she's just pretending to be stupid."

Bai Mengdao: "That's right...it's just a vase, probably because I'm a little out of my mind."

Shen Junci lowered his head in thought and asked, "What about the Prisoner's Dilemma?"

He remembered that it was a common tactic used by criminal police to interrogate accomplices.

Gu Yanchen said: "I tried it too."

The criminal police used the questioning method of the prisoner's dilemma last night. The general accomplice would choose to confess himself first because he was afraid that others would confess himself, so as to get a light sentence.

But the mouths of those female workers became stricter, and none of them changed their confessions.

Gu Yanchen did not expect this abnormal situation, and did not know how to explain it.

Although he didn't personally interrogate these few times, he watched them all in the observation room.There was no major problem with the methods of interrogation by the criminal police. If it was him who interrogated, it would just be a better pace, and there would be no substantial changes.

That secret room is like a blind box, and everyone never mentions what might happen in it.

He was also indifferent to the evidence and photos of the dead body.

This is difficult even for the most vicious prisoners, let alone some female workers who are not deeply involved in the world.

The criminal police usually interrogate prisoners, and they have never encountered such a situation.

Gu Yanchen feels that they are now facing a jigsaw puzzle that fits perfectly. Although the surface looks complete, there should be gaps inside.

If you want to solve this case, you need to find and pry open those gaps.Find the weak link.

Bai Meng looked at the file in front of him, frowned and said, "Where is the problem?"

She suddenly thought of something: "Is there a possibility that the man was killed by the factory executives, and the female workers were threatened and afraid of losing their jobs, so they killed the confession?"

Gu Yanchen shook his head: "Probably not. Zhou Yingying is not pretty, has no money, and has regular contact with people. She has no grievances with others. I think the murderer is still in the dormitory."

He tried to replay everything.

"On the night before it was determined that Zhou Yingying was missing, she had been killed in that storage room. Several female workers worked together to dispose of her body, packed her things, opened the small door behind the factory, and put the body They were transported into an open space, dug, and buried. They threw away related items, and when they faced interrogation by the police the next day, their confessions were consistent."

Bai Meng said: "Zhou Yingying's body is very heavy, so at least six of them participated in the crime."

Gu Yanchen shook his head: "There are more than six, and someone needs to clean the storage room. And move the things in it. The iron shelf is very heavy, and it took three big men to move it before."

From the beginning when he took over this case, Gu Yanchen had considered collective crimes and conspired by many people, but until now he has not confirmed that several of them will commit the crime together...

When all "possible" paths fail, he needs to think about whether the so-called "impossible" is the truth of the case.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanchen knocked on the table with his hands.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and reasoned: "Except for the new Yin Moli, the other [-] people, will everyone participate in this murder?"

This scenario sounds too far-fetched.

Bai Meng retorted subconsciously: "Impossible? There are so many people, how can they achieve unity of opinion?"

Even if they have been involved in a case involving many people before, usually there are two or three accomplices, and seven or eight people is the limit. A case involving so many people is unheard of.

Everyone has their own thoughts.

Even if they all hated Zhou Yingying, they couldn't collectively kill her like this.

The difficulty is how everyone can make such a decision.

Protect the criminals together, no one tells the secret.

Shen Junci frowned aside and pondered.

Gu Yanchen's reasoning sounds illogical at first glance, but after thinking about it carefully, there is such a possibility.

The educational level of the female workers is not high, because of the wages they cling to this job and dare not leave.

There are factions among them, and there are also some contradictions.

Also, there must be details they overlooked.

Shen Junci suddenly remembered the strange scars on the back of the female corpse.

When he was packing up the archives, he put a photo of the back of the female corpse in the pocket of the forensic doctor's suit, and took it out to observe carefully.

Those wounds were smooth and should have been left by a knife.

After looking at the picture of the corpse for a while, Shen Junci closed his eyes, and a strange picture automatically appeared in his mind.

In that small and dark storage room, all the female workers formed a half circle with expressionless faces. They held knives in their hands, shining coldly, and gradually approached Zhou Yingying who was standing in the middle.

Zhou Yingying showed fear, and retreated step by step, until she was cornered.

Sun Yushi pushed her, and the girl's head hit the iron frame. Her head was bleeding and she fell to the ground, her eyes full of despair.

The other female workers gathered around like zombies. Their faces were expressionless, and the knives in their hands fell one after another, piercing Zhou Yingying's back one after another.

Blood flowed out, gradually staining the ground red.

The picture in my mind is a bit absurd.

Shen Junci suddenly figured it out.

He pressed the photo on the table and said: "Maybe this is really a collective murder, a collective lie. Those intricate post-mortem scars on the back were left by those female workers, each with one or two knives, just right able to form such intricate scars."

Gu Yanchen looked at the picture and straightened his mind: "If the wounds were left by different people, then these... are the certificates they submitted!"

Shen Junci: "The scars on the back are post-mortem injuries. But the female workers don't necessarily know this."

Gu Yanchen said: "Everyone thinks that they might be the real murderer!"

Because of this, they hid the secret well, and no one confessed to it.

Because once a confession is made, the first person to speak will turn himself into a murderer!

In an instant, the puzzle was solved.

All that is required next is to verify the reasoning.

Gu Yanchen chose a female worker with a weaker aura among several people.

The female worker's name is Dong Qiaoying and she is 20 years old.

This morning, Lu Ying kept putting pressure on her. The female worker kept silent and refused to answer questions, but from the cold sweat on her forehead, it could be seen that she was on the verge of collapse.

Gu Yanchen entered the interrogation room, and after laying the groundwork for a few words, he asked the question directly: "Did you leave any scars on the back of the corpse?"

Even if the former criminal police asked, they didn't ask such detailed questions.

Dong Qiaoying froze for a moment, hesitation appeared in her eyes for the first time.

The pupils of the female worker's eyes are dark, and the black eyeballs are large, like a lamb in fear.

The corners of her drooping mouth changed instantly, and she stuck out her tongue to lick some chapped lips: "I don't."

Gu Yanchen continued to ask: "Are you not telling the truth because you participated in the case?"

Dong Qiaoying lowered her head: "Officer, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Gu Yanchen said: "Although Zhou Yingying's body has been placed for a year, the scars on the back are still visible. If you were coerced by the murderer to do this kind of behavior under special circumstances, we will consider it as appropriate. But if you don't report it if you know it, It will only aggravate your crime."

Dong Qiaoying didn't speak, but her feet were twisted together. Such body language showed that she was engaged in a fierce inner struggle.

"The forensic doctor has verified by scientific methods that the scars on Zhou Yingying's back are post-mortem injuries, that is, caused after her death. I hope you can tell us who the real murderer is. Tell us what happened that night."

The female worker lowered her head, her hands were shaking.

Gu Yanchen sighed and played an emotional card: "Your mother seems to be sick all the time, right? If you don't speak, you may face punishment..."

This sentence became the last straw that crushed the girl.

Dong Qiaoying felt that the thread that had been tense in her heart suddenly broke.

She cried out loudly: "I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill her, I really didn't kill her..."

Gu Yanchen asked the criminal police officer who was recording at the side to hand her a tissue, waiting for her to start telling.

Dong Qiaoying cried for a while, and began to say intermittently: "A year ago, that night, after eleven o'clock in the evening, I was sleeping on the bed, and I was already fast asleep. Tao Ya suddenly pushed me awake, and then she asked me to go downstairs in a low voice. , go to the storage room, and say that Sun Yushi told me to go there."

"At that time, I didn't know what they wanted me to do downstairs. I didn't dare to refuse Sun Yushi. I was in a daze, wearing pajamas, and followed Tao Ya down until I walked into the storage room. It was very dark inside, and I As soon as I entered, I saw Sun Yushi and two other people inside. Zhou Yingying was lying on the ground, not moving..."

"At that time, I wanted to call the police and call for help, but they held me down. Sun Yushi told me that Zhou Yingying was injured by her and was about to die. For her, killing someone There are still two people, the result is the same... If I dare to call the police, or tell other people, she will kill me..."

"At that time, several of them forced me with knives and gestured on my neck and chest. There was no signal in the storage room, and the sound insulation there was very good. Even if they shouted inside, they couldn't hear anything outside."

"I didn't wake up at that time, I... I was terrified, so I told them, I won't call the police, I won't tell other people, beg them, let me go back."

"Sun Yushi won't believe me, she said...if I stab Zhou Yingying in the back, she will believe me."

"At that time, I was very dizzy and scared... I took the knife Tao Ya handed me."

When Dong Qiaoying said this, she covered her face with tears in her eyes.

"I saw that there were already several wounds on Zhou Yingying's back, so I closed my eyes and poked them in. Sun Yushi said it was too light, so I didn't poke them in at all, so I... poked them again, this time. Yes, it was the feeling of being cut into the flesh, and then they touched Zhou Yingying's body and said that she was only seriously injured, but she really died after being stabbed, and I killed Zhou Yingying..."

"I was terrified, but it just happened."

"They took photos and threatened me that if the police come to investigate, they will hand over the photo of me stabbing Zhou Yingying to the police. If I dare to confess anything, they will collectively say that I am the murderer."

Dong Qiaoying cried so much that she could barely speak.

That night was her nightmare. For the first time, she knew the feeling of a knife poking into human flesh.

Zhou Yingying's blood was warm, with warmth.

Since then, she has woken up countless times from dreams, and what she dreamed about was Zhou Yingying's body.

What made her panic even more was the suspicion and wariness between them.

She also once doubted whether Sun Yushi and the others were lying to her, and she didn't know why Zhou Yingying died.

However, she was not sure whether the police could tell who had stabbed the fatal knife, and whether Zhou Yingying's death had something to do with her actions.

During the interrogation, she was afraid that she would be regarded as a murderer and sentenced to a heavy sentence. Under tremendous psychological pressure, she bit her confession to death.

It wasn't until Gu Yanchen told her that the wound on her back was a post-mortem wound that she told the truth about that night.

The process of the female worker's confession was similar to what Shen Junci predicted.

Gu Yanchen waited for her to calm down before continuing to ask: "What happened next?"

"Later...they let me go back and told me not to tell others what I saw. Then they started calling the next colleague, and that night, everyone was called down."

"The people we came back couldn't sleep, and sat on the head of the bed one by one. We didn't communicate with each other, but I guess, they may have encountered the same situation as me."

It was summer at that time, and she curled up on the bed, even though she was covered with a thin quilt, her whole body was still cold.

She heard the cries of others, just like her.

Every female worker is driven to a corner.

"At around twelve o'clock in the evening, Sun Yushi came back. She assigned work to us as usual. Some people packed Zhou Yingying's bed, some imitated her tone, and drew up a message to leave, and some Someone buried the body at night when the security guards were not there. I was assigned to clean the storage room. A few of us used detergent to wipe off the blood on the floor, and then moved the boxes and things to their positions. As soon as the factory door opened in the morning, Sun Yushi threw Zhou Yingying's belongings and the murder weapon into a garbage dump far away..."

Shen Junci listened in the observation room. This was similar to his previous guess. Only by division of labor and cooperation can everything be done in a short time and be hidden from everyone.

On that night, all the female workers in this dormitory seemed to be kidnapped. They were coerced into a community and had to face the lost life.

"We were all asked to keep this a secret. She taught us how to tell the police... that as long as we don't speak, no one will know about it. Everyone will think that Zhou Yingying just left."

"Sun Yushi also said that this matter will not be strictly investigated. No one cares about Zhou Yingying's life and death. The factory leaders will not stop the factory. If we cannot complete the order, there will be huge losses."

"Later she said that the manager of the factory found someone from the branch office and made it a case of disappearance. We will be fine."

Having said that, Dong Qiaoying started to break down and cry again.

That night, the female workers went downstairs one by one, wounded the backs of their roommates, buried the bodies together, destroyed the corpses, confronted the police, and told lies.

For a year these secrets weighed on her mind.

She didn't want to lose her job, and she didn't want to be suspected of being a murderer.

Each of them carefully, tacitly, never mentioned that night.

The branch hastily classified the case as a missing case, which gave the female workers hope.

Time passed, and they were even slowly moving on from that horrible night.Days seem to slowly return to the same as before, but completely different.

However, the French Open has been restored, and it is sparse but not missing.

They had thought that the body would not be found.But a few days ago, I saw the news that the female body was dug up.

They are like confused lambs, closing their mouths, staring wide-eyed at the unknown future ahead, not knowing what their fate will be.

Until last night, when she was investigated, detained, and faced with interrogation by the police, her psychological defense finally completely collapsed.

And Gu Yanchen also felt that they were one step closer to the truth.
