The Underworld Detective

Chapter 354: Murder Number Two

A week later, at night, Huang Xiaotao called and said that another case had occurred and gave me the address.

Wang Dali woke up on the phone and said obsessively: "Yoko, I'll give you a lift! ”

I said, "Okay, I'll call you when I'm ready! ”

Of course I didn't call him, but I went out quietly. Wang Dali couldn't sleep. I went downstairs and called a car with a DiDiDi taxi.

The scene was an underground parking lot, with a security line outside, surrounded by several police cars and ambulances, and some passers-by on the night shift standing outside watching. I lifted the cordon into the building and saw the scene of the murder through the technical team that was investigating the evidence.

What a miserable scene this time! The victim's upper body was blurred and indistinguishable. It was photographed on a concrete column like a pancake, surrounded by radioactive blood, a leg with a dress on its lower body and sandals for women on one foot.

On the other side of the deceased, there were several parallel tyre marks on the ground.

The incident occurred around 10 o'clock that night, when a couple had a loud talk in the parking lot and there was no one around them, but the surveillance video was filmed.

The wife turned around and walked away, suddenly the husband drove faster and hit the wife again, pushing her against the wall. It wasn't enough to hit him. He reversed his car, hit him, and hit his wife's upper body into a piece of mud. That's it!

The husband then fled with a badly deformed bumper and went to a car wash shop five kilometres away, where he was sighted and reported to the police by his buddies.

At about 12 p.m. that evening, the suspect was stopped by special police on the freeway out of town and arrested on the spot.

I looked at the body, and the deformed upper body did have dents from the bumper impact on the front, and I asked Huang Xiaotao: “Why do you think that man did it? ”

And she said, "Feel it! The evidence is conclusive and irrefutable, very similar to the previous case. Anyway, I think it would be safer to call you here to look at it and save people from being wronged. ”

I nodded, "Children can teach! ”

I put on a rubber glove and examined the body, and the victim was a woman of about thirty years of age, and I suddenly realized that the time of death was undisputed, four hours ago, because of a ruptured gut.

The deceased had a platinum wedding ring on his right hand, something in his hand, a cell phone, and Huang Xiaotao told me the last phone call was from his husband.

Though the corpse was harsh, it was not very doubtful in itself, as it had not been killed directly.

I went to the other side and looked at the brake marks on the ground, and there was a place where the tires and the ground had the heaviest burn marks, and I asked, "How do we speed up the speed of crashing people to death in such short distances? ”

Huang Xiaotao explained: "You don't drive, so you don't know. One trick is to press the brake and the throttle at the same time. The moment you release the brake, it accelerates to very fast, but it hurts the engine. ”

I said, "What do you think of this guy's driving skills? ”

Huang Xiaotao looked at the brake marks on the ground and said: “Strike and reverse the car, the car next to him is so close but not rubbed, he is definitely a master! ”

I went on to ask, "Does the suspect fit that profile? ”

Huang Xiaotao laughed: “The suspect is a driving school teacher. The driving skills must be top notch and can be said to be perfectly compatible. ”

I waved, "Go, go check out the surveillance tapes! ”

We went to the surveillance room and asked the security guard to pull out the surveillance footage taken at the time. The footage was divided into two segments, which were taken separately from each other. One is the scene of the suspect Li and his wife arguing in the parking lot, which clearly identifies them, and the other is the scene of Li's car crashing into his wife at high speed. From this angle, the cab can't be seen.

I looked over and over again, picking up a pencil and pointing it at the first image: "Why is there a corner missing? ”

The security guard replied, "It's probably dirty! The cameras are more sophisticated, and professionals come to clean them up regularly, not under our control. ”

Huang Xiaotao took out his phone and asked someone to look at it. I think the missing corner is big enough to cover the back half of the car. After a moment of kung fu, the police officer who went over reported: "Yellow team, there's a piece of gum sticking to the lens. ”

Huang Xiaotao and I exchanged sights. If someone deliberately blocked it, wouldn't it be easier for him to block the whole camera? Obviously, that's not what he was trying to do. He was trying to get the monitor to film something, but not everything.

I said, "Look at the rest. ”

The guard stunned for a moment: "Just these two paragraphs! ”

I added, "I mean, look at the other footage! ”

The guard ‘oh’ sounded, pulled out all the lenses, and I noticed at least three of them were dirty or something was blocking the situation.

I saw an overlooking view of the parking lot on the wall, painted with a pencil, and I said to Huang Xiaotao: "This is where the first video was taken, and this is the second, and there is a blank area of about five meters between the two cameras! ”

Huang Xiaotao looked carefully for a moment and nodded.

I photographed this overlooking view on my phone, and when I went out, I analyzed, “This parking lot is not very well controlled, because it can be parked anywhere. So the killer arranged a few points in advance, and he should have several plans! ”

And I said, "I just noticed that there was also a time lag between those two surveillance videos, about two minutes. ”

Huang Xiaotao raised his eyebrows: “Two minutes, that's too short! ”

I pointed to the open space in front and said, "About five meters from here to there, don't talk about an angry woman, even an old man with a leg or leg inconvenience can walk this distance in two minutes. But the deceased didn't. Is there something holding her back, just in the blind spot of the monitor? ”

I quickly walked back to the scene of the homicide, came to the victim's cell phone, the phone was in the evidence bag, the screen had broken, I turned it on and saw that the last call started exactly two minutes before the homicide.

I called Huang Xiaotao to the place where the two of them fought and said: "Around 10: 30, they fought here! ”

Then I went forward and walked to the surveillance blind spot: “Two people argued for five minutes, the wife came here, answered a phone call, it was the husband, she stood unbiased in the surveillance blind spot! The husband's car rushed over and hit his wife. ”

Huang Xiaotao stood where I was standing and looked back and said: “If the person who killed her was not her husband, but a copycat, the wife would have seen her standing here, and the lights in the parking lot were as bright as they are now! ”

I shrugged, and Huang Xiaotao asked another question: “And how did the copycat tweak the bag with her husband in the car? ”

I explained: "Surveillance can't capture the back of the car, the copycat can come in through the back door, anesthetize the husband by some means, the husband is still sitting in the cab and can be seen from his wife's point of view. ”

Huang Xiaotao asked a question: “Can't you see the state of coma or sobriety when the wife is standing five meters away? ”

I speculated, "Probably a myopia…” I'm not sure right now, because the entire head of the deceased was smashed.

I asked, "What did the criminal suspect say? ”

Huang Xiaotao smiled bitterly: “What a coincidence, he also confessed that he was drugged, but urinalysis confirmed that there was no residue of narcotics in his body! ”
