The Underworld Detective

Chapter 373: Pumpkin Hammer

Huang Xiaotao immediately asked someone to look for the first scene according to this characteristic. A policeman walked in and held several printed sheets of paper: “Team Huang, we have the identity of the deceased! ”

The deceased's name was Zhang Bing, 46 years old, and he was an unemployed traveler. His means of earning a living was disgusting in that he persuaded a number of good housewives to sell bamboo and then earn their own bonuses. The man had a background in organizing bamboo sales and spent several years in prison.

Huang Xiaotao raised his eyebrows: “Turns out he's a pimp! ”

I recall last night's scene, and I think he was at work, and I said, "I'm sure these people have had a lot of enemies all day long! ”

Knowing the identity of the deceased, I was relieved because at first I thought it might have something to do with the ghost bus. It just seems like a common homicide right now.

Huang Xiaotao ordered: “Check the relationship between the dead. ”

I would add: "Check the debt transactions in particular! See if he owes a shark loan or something. ”

We went out and Huang Xiaotao waved: “Okay, you don't have to follow this case, it should be an ordinary case. ”

I shook my head: "I'd better come and help. I can't stay in the store for two days. ”

Huang Xiaotao asked what happened. I told Wang Dali's emotional troubles. Huang Xiaotao laughed. "I will criticize Sun Bingxin later. This little girl knows everyone quickly and is easily misleading. ”

I sighed helplessly: "Mainly still Wang Dali, this is too much love! ”

And then a voice came: "Criticize me for what? What did I do wrong? ”

Sun Bing-hearted appeared with a smile. “I didn't even call you when you showed up. ”

Huang Xiaopao said with his face: “Are you late again in the morning? ”

“It's my fault, I slept late last night! If you want to deduct the bonus, you can deduct it. Anyway, my full-time bonus this month is long gone.” Sun Bing vomited his tongue.

Huang Xiaotao scolded: “Your face is as thick as a city wall! ”

Sun Bingxin asked me to accompany her to buy clothes when we were about to close the team and pass a mall. Huang Xiaotao said: "You are too free to scatter during working hours, right? ”

Sun Bingxin smiled at her and said to me: "We'll come back after work. ”

I got off near the store, and Wang Dali was standing in front of the counter in disquiet, and I asked, "Where's Luo Yu? ”

Wang Dali said: “I didn't find it. I called her. She said she took the train home and turned it off. ”

I wanted to say the right thing, but I still held on to it. I sighed: “Get her back early and explain clearly. Many people won't come back if they miss it. Is it interesting to remember Sun Bing's heart? ”

Wang Dali said and denied: “I don't always think of Sun Bingxin. ”

The logistics company came to deliver the goods in the morning, and we moved again. It was busy. In the afternoon, I sat in the store and read the book. Huang Xiaotao called again. "Song Yang, we have another case. ”

I can't stop crying: “That's a little high! ”

Huang Xiaotao said: “I don't know what to say about this case, it's a bit ordinary, but I think it would be better if you took a look at it. ”

I said, "I'll be right there! ”

I greeted Wang Dali and rushed to the police station. The bodies were placed in the skeletal dorm. Sun Bingxin and Huang Xiaotao were both there. Sun Bingxin came in for the first time to visit, and found it very fresh and interesting.

Two bodies lying side by side in bed, looking like women in shape, I asked, "Where did you find them? ”

Huang Xiaotao replied: "In a hotel, the desk staff on duty received a room call and they didn't say anything, so they hung up. As a result, the other party called twice. The counter staff realized something was wrong and went up and found two female corpses lying side by side in bed, so they called the police..."

I lifted the white sheet, and I noticed that the victim looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where I'd seen her. Sun Bingxin's eyes were the same, and she suddenly said 'Huh’, pointing her finger at the deceased, wanting to stop.

When I opened the second white sheet, Sun Bingxin and I called out: “How could it be them! ”

Huang Xiaotao was surprised: “Do you know each other? ”

I said, "Last night on the ghost bus, these two women were with Zhang Bing! ”

They had no makeup on their faces, so when we saw the face of the first victim, Sun Bingxin and I only looked familiar but didn't recognize it immediately. The second victim was obviously characterized by higher cheekbones, so we recognized it all at once.

The deceased was naked, pale skin, some water stains on his body, and some water grass on his hair. Sun Bing said in horror: “Are these three homicides and ghost buses related? Those who passed by last night will be killed in turn...”

And I waved, "Don't get ahead of yourself. The morning case was done by people, and so was this. ”

I asked Sun Bingxin to make a preliminary assessment. Sun Bingxin came to check on the deceased: “The first deceased was about 25 years old. Judging from the pupil cloudiness procedure and zombies, the time of death was about five hours. There were no obvious signs of trauma or sexual assault on her body. There was crab-like foam with blood on her mouth. Her hands and feet were laundry hands. The cause of death should be drowning... However, if it was drowning, the time of death might have to be pushed forward by three hours. ”

I said, "What about the second corpse? ”

The second victim was too old, about 30 years of age, and died about five hours later, also from drowning. There is a scorched black mark on the abdomen, two dots, like being burned by something, having a life reaction, left behind before death, except for no obvious signs of trauma or sexual assault.

When I thought of Zhang Bing's body, I touched the back of the heads of the two deceased with my hands and found signs of a broken bone. There was a soft bruise under his skin. The position and size of the injuries on the back of the brains of the two deceased were similar, indicating that the killer was a blunt object wrapped in a soft material that struck the back of the brain, causing a state of stiffness and then drowned.

Sun Bingxin sighed: “Blunt instrument, what could it be? Barrel, baseball bat? … yes, baseball bats are closest. ”

I picked up a short stick from the tool rack, and I bought a half-baked fake person to put it here to help deduce the crime process. I waved with a short stick and shook my head eventually: “It's unlikely that the baseball bat is straight and can't hit a spot, it will definitely leave a linear wound on my ear and side face. ”

Huang Xiaotao walked over and said: “Face to face, but hit the back of the head. This guy is not easy. I feel like I've practiced! ”

I analyzed: "From the shape of the strike point, the murder weapon seems to be a small hammer, covered in leather. ”

Huang Xiaotao asked: "You mean the kind of golden melon hammer? ”

I said, "Yes! Hammers are used in ancient battlefields to break defenses. No matter how thick the armor, a hammer is almost lethal to the head and more efficient than a sword. The person stabbed will struggle to resist a few more times, but the hammer hits the head immediately becomes rigid, spastic, falls on the ground mouth corner drool, completely loses resistance, the killer seems to know the body better, or has some experience of killing, the medulla oblongata in the back of the head is controlling the general motor nerve, and the skull in this area is far more fragile than the front. ”

Huang Xiaotao said: “Although I haven't practiced this kind of weapon, I've also seen others play it. It's a bit difficult to hit the back of my head. Unless it's a strange weapon like a meteor hammer, it should not be available in the hotel room. If the deceased saw the murderer pull out the hammer, wouldn't he resist calling for help? Even if an acquaintance was working, the two deceased were in the same room, and the first person was defeated, did the second person stick his head out and let the murderer fight? ”

Huang Xiaotao wasn't questioning me, she was just raising her own doubts. I had a hidden guess about this, but I couldn't get it yet, so I ordered, “Sun Bingxin, go and test the white blood cell content of the second victim! ”
