Forensics

In the Penang City Police Department late at night, in the brightly lit criminal investigation building.

Gu Yanchen returned to the observation room, and Shen Junci also came here with the inspection report.

Bai Meng, Lu Ying, and even Qi Yi'an all came to have a meeting together.

The test report was written in a thick stack. Bai Meng looked through it, and he didn't quite understand some of the terms in it: "Forensic Shen, what does it mean that this is only a 'consideration factor'?"

Shen Jun said: "According to the test results, the deceased had taken digoxin tablets or similar drugs before death. This drug is used to treat heart disease, but if taken in excess, it may cause heart paralysis and death. Because The internal organs of the deceased were decomposed, and I cannot identify the exact cause of death from the anatomy, but I don't think the possibility of drug-induced death can be ruled out."

Qi Yi'an further explained: "Taking this drug is an established fact. We have no way of knowing how much she took and whether her death was caused by the drug."

Shen forensic doctor nodded, and concluded with rigorous words: "So I said, she 'probably' died due to the influence of drugs."

Lu Ying reasoned logically: "Digoxin overdose can lead to death? So could it be that she was intentionally poisoned to death?"

Shen Jun said: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

The corpse was severely decomposed. If it weren't for Shen Junci's superb skills in extracting internal organs and conducting tests, this secret would have been lost forever.

Knowing this prerequisite, the entire Special Criminal Division began to reorganize the case again.

In most cases, once the murderer reveals the truth, it means that the truth has come to light.

But in this case, many people testified, and even the murderer confessed to the crime, so there was a turning point.

Gu Yanchen told everyone the information he had just heard from Yin Moli.

Lu Ying lowered her head and pondered for a moment, "So, although Sun Yushi confessed to killing Zhou Yingying, she still can't tell how Zhou Yingying died."

Bai Meng also sorted out her thoughts: "During their scuffle, Zhou Yingying fell to the ground, and Sun Yushi would naturally suspect that it was her fault. In other words, Sun Yushi probably didn't know whether Zhou Yingying had taken an overdose of drugs before she died. That's why she confessed to the murder."

Lu Yingdao: "Then the question now becomes, who killed Zhou Yingying?"

Gu Yanchen turned his head and asked Bai Meng: "Can I check the drug purchase records of these female workers?"

Fuxing Electronics Factory provides full medical insurance for female workers, and there are designated hospitals for medical treatment.In addition, digoxin is a prescription drug and must be obtained with a doctor's prescription.

Bai Meng's fingers were typing rapidly on the keyboard, and after a while she turned her head and said, "In the whole dormitory, only Tao Ya has prescribed digoxin tablets."

Tao Ya, it's that Tao Ya again.

Gu Yanchen felt that he still hadn't figured out the relationship between the female workers. He said, "Check all the information about Tao Ya and Zhou Yingying again. Find out all the connections between these two people."

The background investigation of the female workers had already been done once in the afternoon, and the information in the police system was not exhaustive.

With some clues, Bai Meng found new information.

Lu Ying also made several phone calls, asking about the parents of both parties and related insiders.In the middle of the night, everyone who could be asked was asked.

"The elementary school is in the same school, the junior high school is in the next class, and the high school is also in the same high school. The two of them have known each other since junior high school."

"Zhou Yingying lived at her aunt's house for a while, across the street from Tao Ya's house."

"They entered the Fuxing Electronics Factory through the same agency. Tao Ya came first for half a month, followed by Zhou Yingying."

"Tao Ya's cousin said that both of them have participated in the school's chorus team, and they have been good friends since childhood."

Little by little new clues surfaced.

Yu Shen asked, "Could it be that Tao Ya introduced Zhou Yingying?"

Lu Yingdao: "It's very possible. If she thinks it's a good job, she may tell people she knows, and there are places where there is a reward for introducing the job."

Being able to introduce jobs to each other, it seems that they are good friends, maybe even so-called girlfriends.

Being able to enter the electronics factory is definitely a high-paying job in the eyes of girls who graduated from high school in the town.

At that time, Tao Ya didn't know that she pushed her good friend into the fire pit with her own hands.

Bai Meng found another piece of information in Zhou Yingying's circle of friends, which seemed to support their deduction.

The accompanying text of that circle of friends is: Tomorrow, I will embark on a new journey, good sister, here I come!

It was a message posted by Zhou Yingying before she came to the electronics factory, and the picture below is a photo.

The photo was taken many years ago, probably in high school, and it shows two little girls, both wearing choir costumes.

The chubby one on the left of the photo is Zhou Yingying, she is smiling recklessly, and the thin and frail one beside her is Tao Ya, who combs her younger sister's hair, smiles shyly, and stretches out her hand to show ye.

At that time, the sun was shining and everything seemed so beautiful.

But now, one of them died forever, and the other became a suspect in killing her friend.

Gu Yanchen said: "I'll ask Sun Yushi again. Bai Meng is in charge of recording."

He turned around and went to the room where Sun Yushi was locked up. Sun Yushi had already signed the testimony. At this time, the tension on her face was gone, only endless fatigue.

Sun Yushi was lying on the table with a broken expression: "Officer, I have already committed all the crimes, can you let me go to sleep?"

"Wait a minute, I still have some questions to ask you." Gu Yanchen asked Sun Yushi, "At the beginning, how did you think of threatening all the female workers in the same bed by destroying the corpse?"

"How did you think of it?" Sun Yushi widened her eyes and said, "I just thought of it suddenly."

Gu Yanchen didn't know if she was really stupid or pretending to be stupid.

He was sure that this subtle and perverted plan definitely did not come from Sun Yushi's mind.

He asked more clearly: "Has anyone reminded you of your thoughts?"

"It seems to be...Tao Ya?" Sun Yushi suddenly realized, "Well... when Zhou Yingying and I were fighting, she was by my side. It seems that she reminded me that we should let others think that they killed someone. Said that only in this way, they will not talk nonsense. Also, she said that she would take pictures of the process, so that we have a handle, and she is also trying to figure out how to let us destroy the corpse."

Sun Yushi recalled it now, but she was also a little at a loss at the time, Tao Ya said the solution, and she naturally turned these thoughts into her own thoughts.And implement those methods.

After the death incident, Sun Yushi restrained a lot, and she kept hypnotizing herself, trying to forget these things.

With the passage of time, these memories were not even so clear, and she didn't remember them until Gu Yanchen asked her.

Gu Yanchen: "What else did Tao Ya do?"

"In our dormitory, Tao Ya is the most proficient in electronic devices, and the one who plays with mobile phones is Tao Ya. Those photos are all stored in her. For a while, I was worried that if the things were in her hands, she would send them to the police and call the police."

Sun Yushi paused and said: "I have something in her hands, so I will naturally treat her better. However, she is quite easy to talk and has not done anything excessive. Later, the people in the dormitory began to listen to her. her……"

Tao Ya gradually became the core of the entire dormitory.

Gu Yanchen continued to ask: "Did you bully Tao Ya before?"

Sun Yushi said: "What year did that happen? Three years ago, right? I couldn't understand Zhou Yingying from the beginning. It was Tao Ya who wanted to be a hero and helped Zhou Yingying contradict me, so I started to target her. Later I I thought she was a bit easy to bully, so I teased her for a while, but once I fell into the water, she saved me. We are no longer in an antagonistic relationship. It was all her idea."

"Why did you fall into the water?"

"At that time, everyone was on the shore, and I was pushed down. After I was rescued, no one admitted that they were standing behind me."

Gu Yanchen asked again: "Is the relationship between Tao Ya and Zhou Yingying good?"

Sun Yushi sneered and said, "What's the matter? I know the two of them are from the same town. It seems that Zhou Yingying was introduced by Tao Ya. When I bullied Tao Ya back then, Zhou Yingying didn't dare to let a fart go. Tao Ya bullied Zhou Yingying Come on, I'm not merciful at all."

Gu Yanchen asked, "What do you remember about that day?"

Sun Yushi scratched her hair: "I told you all what I remember just now." She suddenly thought of something again, "Zhou Yingying was like crazy that day, when she hit me, she scratched my hand."

This is also the same as the results of the forensic autopsy.

Sun Yushi frowned more and more tightly, recalling: "I pushed her out, and she hit the shelf with a loud noise. Then Zhou Yingying lay on the ground panting, she looked at me and said, 'I can't do it anymore. , Sun Yushi, you killed someone!' I thought she was threatening me, but after a while, she stopped moving... I was frightened."

Recalling that scene now, Sun Yushi still has lingering fears.

In that dark storage room.

Zhou Yingying fell to the ground, bleeding from her forehead, her eyes were fixed on her, foaming from her mouth, and she said intermittently: "You are a murderer, your life is over..."

That was the first time she was afraid, screaming and shaking the woman lying on the ground desperately: "Zhou Yingying, stop pretending! I know you are scaring me! Get up!"

But Zhou Yingying's body was so heavy, her head was tilted to one side, and she couldn't even breathe.

She looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief, her heart was pounding, and she felt that she also died that night together.

Thinking back now, Zhou Yingying obviously only had a bruise on her head, so how could she suddenly die?

After confirming Zhou Yingying's death, she was thinking about how to destroy the corpse, but she never thought that there might be a problem with the cause of death.

Recalling this point, Sun Yushi finally felt that something was wrong. She frowned, "There won't be any problem with Zhou Yingying's death, right? Is this matter... related to Tao Ya?"

Gu Yanchen didn't answer her, he stood up and walked out of the interrogation room.

In the observation room, Shen Junci was still there, and he also heard Sun Yushi's answer just now.

Bai Meng analyzed softly: "Is it possible that all this was Tao Ya's trap from the beginning?"

Precise calculations, almost perfect implementation, only Tao Ya can do this.

The observation room had glass on three sides, and Tao Ya was sitting in the interrogation room on their left.

Through the observation window, one could see the girl sitting inside with her head bowed. In the previous interrogation, she was the one with the strictest mouth.

Up to now, the other twelve female workers have completed the identification of Sun Yushi, only she has not described in detail what happened that night.

The girl lowered her head, and the hair on both sides fell down, making her face small. Looking through the glass, she looked like a doll in a window.

Qi Yi'an felt cold behind his back: "Is it possible? On that night, Tao Ya knew in advance that Sun Yushi was going to physically punish Zhou Yingying, so she gave Zhou Yingying medicine. During the fight, Zhou Yingying died of a drug attack. Sun Yushi But I thought that I caused Zhou Yingying's death."

Gu Yanchen said: "This is an exquisite plan, but it is not impossible."

Bai Mengdao: "But now, there is a new problem. If Tao Ya did it, what was her motive for killing Zhou Yingying?"

Lu Ying tried to guess: "Jealousy, money, man?"

"How can you rely on guesswork to solve a case?" Bai Meng couldn't hear his nonsense: "According to the preliminary investigation, there is none of these!"

Gu Yanchen reasoned: "Zhou Yingying's death is inseparably related to Tao Ya. As for the murderous intention, it may be the disappointment of the former best friend. The two girls turned against each other. Maybe there are other reasons."

No one spoke, so he continued to reason.

"Maybe, Tao Ya became black after being bullied. She designed to kill her friend, and then took advantage of Zhou Yingying's death. She took pictures of every girl stabbing Zhou Yingying in the back. She The things in her hands have become something that every female worker is afraid of. So Tao Ya took advantage of this to turn against the customer, and took advantage of Sun Yushi, and even the female workers in the entire dormitory."

It sounds like everything makes sense.

But is this the truth of the case?

Gu Yanchen looked at the whiteboard in front of him, which was covered with various photos and information.He said, "But, there is something wrong."

He himself disproves his own reasoning.

Shen Junci turned his head, his eyes fell on Gu Yanchen, waiting for his analysis.

When he first came across this case, he thought it was very simple, but the more he investigated it now, the more strange it became.

Gu Yanchen pointed to the whiteboard in front of him: "In the beginning, the Fourth Branch thought it was a case of escape, and they provided a lot of evidence, including Zhou Yingying's Weibo and a lot of information..."

Lu Yingdao: "The information may have been released by Tao Ya. She is a smart girl, and she may have planned it for a long time. She used this to confuse people's attention."

"Not true." Gu Yanchen directly vetoed, "At that time, Zhou Yingying was still alive, how could she not have noticed when others used her Weibo to post these messages? Moreover, the conflict between Zhou Yingying and her family also existed, and those messages must be from Zhou Yingying. Hairy."

When Gu Yanchen said this, he drew an arrow on the whiteboard.

"This incident caused Zhou Yingying's parents to be bullied online. People accused them of selling their daughter and forcing her to leave..."

Gu Yanchen turned around, pressed one hand on the table, and looked at the various materials on the table: "Sometimes when encountering a complicated case and having no clue, there is the simplest analysis method, which is to see who is the ultimate beneficiary , who achieved the result he wanted through murder or violence..."

Everyone followed his words as if walking into a maze.

Outside the criminal investigation building, there was silence, and the surroundings were dark.

Although it was already late at night, Shen Junci's exhaustion faded away, replaced by a kind of excitement in which the brain was spinning rapidly.

He felt that he was in many prisms, and each glass reflected a different image.

The faces of the girls passed in front of him one by one.

Crying bitterly, confessing, hideously, regretting.

Everyone is opening their mouths, stating confessions from different angles.

The truth is hidden beneath these representations.

True and false, good and evil, are all mixed together.

It seems that there is an invisible hand behind them.

After a while, he seemed to have finally arrived at the exit of the maze, and he could step out of the fog with one step forward.

Shen Junci finally understood what Gu Yanchen meant, and he closed his eyes with regret: "This is revenge and punishment."

Gu Yanchen got up from the chair: "I'll go to interrogate Tao Ya again."

He wanted to hear her tell what was the truth of the case.
