Mystery Hunter - Chapter 238
[Chapter 238 Sick Murderer]
Jiang He knelt on one knee on the ground and gestured with his hand to the small hole in the belly of the corpse, and said, “Look out, the murderer is centered on the belly button of a human body, with different lengths as radii. It’s a round hole. The hole is very round and the wound is smooth. The murderer must have used some kind of tool.”
Xu Yiman squatted on the other side of the corpse, looking at the details Jiang He said. Wearing gloves, she gently touched the round hole in the belly of the deceased, as Jiang He said, “Yes, although the skin on the belly was taken away by the murderer, if you observe carefully, you can indeed see that The murderer cut a hole with the navel as the center.”
“What does this mean?” Yuan Jun said, “It means that this person is proficient in mathematics and loves to use compasses?”
After speaking, Yuan Jun thought of a picture in his mind:
a late night, the concierge After the old man fell asleep, the murderer climbed over the fence and sneaked into the crematorium. The area of the crematorium is not large, but for the murderer, in an environment where he can’t see his fingers, he seems to have jumped into a dark ocean.
Under the dark lights, he quietly came to the funeral home, walked into the corpse storage room, and opened the freezer. The corpse appeared in front of him, and he took out a large compass from his backpack. He fixed the center of the compass to the belly button of the corpse, while the other end of the compass was tied with a sharp scalpel.
Immediately, he turned the compass in his hand. The sharp knife slashed through the belly of the corpse, eventually spinning off a whole piece of meat. After that, he put away the compass, put on gloves, and put his hand into the stomach of the corpse. He pulled the internal organs out of the corpse’s stomach, packed them up, and stuffed pieces of sponge into the corpse’s stomach.
After all this was done, he pushed the body into the freezer and left with his spoils.
“No, this shows that he is a very delicate person.” Old Shao said, “If a person steals corpses in such an orderly manner, he should be an orderly person in everything he does. In my opinion, this person There may be obsessive-compulsive disorder.”
“Obsessive-compulsive disorder?” Yuan Jun said, “I often hear this word on the Internet, as if everyone on the Internet has obsessive-compulsive disorder.”
Xu Yiman waved his hand and said, “Those netizens on the Internet just think that obsessive-compulsive disorder is more personal. That’s it, so I put this hat on myself. In fact, they feel that the floor tiles are not aligned, or that a black block suddenly appears in the white picture. This is just the rejection of inconsistency that most people have, not obsessive-compulsive disorder. ”
The obsessive-compulsive disorder is much more serious than this. For example, some patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder have to drink eight glasses of water every day. Eight glasses are eight glasses. If there is more or less, he will feel uncomfortable and painful.” For example, some patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder will be so angry that they will tear up the entire workbook if they write a little more than one column.”
“The average person is somewhat obsessive, which is normal, and only when it reaches this point is it considered a Obsessive-compulsive disorder.” Xu Yiman looked at the hole in the corpse and said, “But from this corpse, the murderer does look like an obsessive-compulsive disorder, but whether it is serious or not can be seen from the corpse alone.”
“Alas. “Yuan Jun said: “The murderer is delicate.”
About an hour later, the city bureau forensic doctor arrived, and they happened to be re-dissecting the body in the funeral home. It is not uncommon for six corpses to be autopsied by six forensic doctors together. This is almost a “carnival” for forensic doctors.
While the forensic doctors were conducting the autopsy, Zhang De, the person in charge of the crematorium, arrived in a hurry.
Seeing Mr. Shao, Zhang De said hello and said, “Team Leader Shao, your name is really familiar to me. I saw you on TV when I was a child.”
Mr. Shao and Zhang De shook hands and said: ” Are you in charge of this crematorium in the city?”
Zhang De nodded and shook his head, “It is said to be under our control, but in fact this crematorium is already in a semi-abandoned state. The city is newly built in the east and west suburbs. Having two modern crematoriums is enough to meet the funeral needs of our Longcheng City.”
“Then there is basically no cremation here, right?” Shao Lao asked again.
Zhang De nodded and said, “Yes, this is the old city, and there are many residential buildings around, so it would be inappropriate to burn the corpse. Who made our Longcheng bigger and bigger, this is no longer a suburb. ”
Then how did these corpses come from?” Shao Lao asked again.
Zhang De replied: “All the unclaimed corpses are stored here. Isn’t it possible to make use of them. Unclaimed corpses will be stored for a year at the longest, and no one can be found, so they donate to them. For the school or direct incineration. If you think about it, it’s useless here, and no one complains anyway.”
“If that’s the case, why didn’t this place be demolished?” Shao Lao looked at Zhang De.
Zhang De looked at Mr. Shao and said softly, “Isn’t this money? You said that everyone in Longcheng knows that this is a crematorium. Let’s build a house and no one lives here. Let’s build a commercial street. It’s a little small. It’s better. The solution is to push the Xiucheng Road, but this will not drive economic development, and it will only last a year, who knows when it will be possible to re-plan.”
Shao Lao understood what Zhang De meant, so he didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, the topic changed: “Who hired the old man at the door?”
“Me.” Zhang De said, “Our funds are also limited, and it is too expensive to hire someone seriously, so if you give less, people are unlucky here and refuse to accept it. Come, so I can only find a little old man from the countryside. I have nothing to do with it. Don’t start a fire. Could it be that someone came to steal the body?”
“That’s not necessarily true.” Shao Lao said, “If nothing happened, what would the criminal police do here.”
Zhang De frowned and said, “If you’re dissatisfied, it doesn’t matter if the body is lost. The corpses were originally unclaimed. In the end, I had to deal with these corpses. What do you think I could do? I had to transport the corpses to other funeral homes for cremation, which is really a thankless job.”
“Without you . Don’t be afraid, are you afraid if you are more afraid?” Yuan Jun said aside.
Zhang De smiled: “This police comrade really loves to joke with me.”
While walking towards the crematorium, Lao Shao said to Zhang De, “Don’t you think that old man is strange?”
Zhang De looked back at the doorman and said, “It’s a bit strange, he’s a bit nervous. Yes, if I say something strange to you, just ignore it. I heard that his brain is not very normal, and he has never had a wife and children in his life
. He sighed again: “But it’s already very profitable to be able to use one thousand and five strokes to check the door of the crematorium.”
While speaking, several people had already walked to the door of the crematorium. Standing at the door and looking in, it was dark inside.
Jiang He said, “Can the lights be turned on here?”
Zhang De nodded and said, “There is an electric switch at the back, and it will work after it is turned on. But because this place has been abandoned for many years, the wires inside have not been overhauled, so I don’t know. Is it still usable?”
Having said that, Zhang De walked to the surrounding wall. Halfway through, Zhang De turned around and said to the crowd, “Come on, it’s too dark, I’m a little scared. Yuan Jun said with a smile, ”
Isn’t there a light from the funeral home across the street? Are you in charge of this crematorium? What are you afraid of?”
Yuan Jun accompanied Zhang De to pull down the switch and walked into the crematorium. Zhang De pressed the light switch on the side, and the lights in the crematorium corridor flickered a few times, and finally came on. The cockroaches in the corridor seemed to have never encountered such a sudden situation before, and they fled in all directions, leaving one or two knocked over cockroaches desperately rowing their calves.
Zhang De coughed a few times and said, “It’s estimated that no one has been here for four or five years, and it’s all covered in dust.”
“Really?” Jiang He said, “Do you really think no one has been here?”
Zhang De looked at Jiang He, feeling a little frightened in his heart, wondering why this person spoke in a cloudy manner: “You mean someone has been here?”
Jiang He nodded and said, “Look at our feet. No one has been here for four or five years, but there is no dust on the ground. Someone cleaned this place specially to erase his own footprints.”
“Really?” Zhang De said, “Maybe there is no soil.”
Jiang He shook his head and said, “Look carefully at both sides of the corridor. There are piles of soil on both sides, but there is no soil around.”
Shao Lao said, “That’s right. , It looks like someone has come here.”
Jiang He said: “The crime consultant probably lives here, this is the closest place to the city center, and the least likely to be disturbed.”
Shao Shao shook his head: ” But didn’t the ghouls bother me, it looks like the crime consultant has also committed a crime.”
“Where is the crematorium?” Jiang He asked.
“Go inside.” Zhang De pointed to the front of the corridor.
As the group walked deeper, Zhang De said, “There are three crematoriums here, which means that three corpses can be burned at one time. However, the crematorium workers have all been fired, and no one uses these crematoriums. It ‘s over.”
Shao Lao asked: “How long does it take to burn a corpse?”
Zhang De replied: “It takes about two hours, and the workers have to keep turning on the furnace. Outsiders can’t see it, because no one can I can’t bear to see the bodies of my relatives being treated like this. But now it’s a technological society and it’s all automated, so the crematorium here is useless.”
Zhang De pushed open a door and walked in.
Three crematoriums appeared side by side in front of everyone.
A musty smell came out, and the smoker coughed.
Jiang He noticed a detail. Among the three crematoriums, one of them was obviously cleaner than the other two, as if someone had cleaned it specially. Jiang He walked in front of the crematorium, stretched out his hand and opened the door. He looked inside and suddenly said, “Someone has been here before.”
Zhang De frowned and said: “Of course, although this place is abandoned now, it turns out that Longcheng has used these three furnaces for decades. I don’t know how many dead people have been burned.”
“No.” Jiang He shook his head and said: “I mean the living.”
