Mystery Hunter - Chapter 50

[Chapter 50]

Although it is of little significance to go to the scene at this moment, basically there is no evidence to be found, but fortunately, the technical detectives who dispatched the police that day took complete photos of the surroundings. Jiang He spread these photos on the table, and the table was full.

Judging from these photos, most of them are corpse photos taken from various angles, and the rest are photos of Qin Qingxue’s hanging environment. Combining these photos, although there is no way to be as intuitive as the scene, at least Jiang He has a clear concept in his mind.

This is much clearer than the previous photo.

Jiang He counted it carefully. The green skipping rope was wrapped around Qin Qingxue’s neck three times. Due to the thick skipping rope, the ropes overlapped with each other. Among Qin Qingxue’s flesh, where the skipping rope was entangled, the flesh was purple and black.

Looking up along the skipping rope, the skipping rope goes around the clothes pole and tied with a horseshoe knot. This is a very good knot, and its main feature is that at a certain length, the more you struggle, the tighter it becomes. But as long as one end can be untied, the knot is also easy to untangle, and even one hand can complete the operation.

This is a slip knot after all, not a dead knot that kills once you get in.

Ideally, Qin Qingxue could stop her suicide at any time, but Jiang He had no way to speculate on this probability, because Jiang He had no way to know whether Qin Qingxue had the idea of survival during the suicide process. If she wants to give up suicide, will she have the ability to untie the rope by herself?

In the process of committing suicide, Qin Qingxue is bound to fall into a coma, shock and even eventually die.

Even if Qin Qingxue wanted to give up suicide at that time, she no longer had the strength to save herself.

And a person’s heart is the most difficult thing to figure out. It is impossible for Jiang He to know what Qin Qingxue is thinking. Maybe she once wanted to stand up, but there is no way to do it. But this has become an established fact, but judging from the traces at the scene, Jiang He has a 60% probability that Qin Qingxue committed suicide.

But what Jiang He really didn’t understand was what these things on the rooftop were for.

In the photo, Jiang He found eight candles, all of which were half burned. The eight candles surrounded Qin Qingxue, and Jiang He found some black powder next to a candle. This is the ashes of something that has been burned. There are only a few smears next to the candle. Find.

But Jiang’s observations have always been meticulous. He saw in the photo that there was a pocket on one side of the roof. It was a cloth pocket. The pocket was printed with the logo of a certain brand. It’s just an ordinary pocket for a shoe box, skipping rope and candles can be bought anywhere in convenience stores.

There is nothing suspicious about this, and the file also states that only Qin Qingxue’s fingerprints are on these things.

The rest of the photos are the overall environment on the rooftop. To say it is the rooftop, it is better to say that it is the utility room of the residents of this building. There are some sundries on the roof. In addition to the clothes drying rod hanging in the middle, on the roof, there are also worn-out bicycles, unused sofas, washing machines, etc. It seems that the space is fully utilized. its used.

“There are still people eating on the rooftop.” On the dilapidated sofa on the rooftop, Jiang He saw a large bag of plastic bags, and in the plastic bags, Jiang He saw a lot of packages of snacks. These snacks were mainly desserts, but also There are quite a few sundaes, all of which are famous brands, and some even cost hundreds of dollars.

Shao Lao picked up the photo and looked at it.

Jiang He opened his mouth and said, “This is an old building. There are old residents in the building. Most of these people are ordinary citizens. The average salary is not high, but from the perspective of food, it is already very expensive. For example, this foreign The Haagen-Dazs ice cream I brought is estimated to cost around 200 yuan per unit, and according to my statistics, older people don’t really like these foods, especially imported ones.”

Mr. Shao looked at Jiang He’s point. The brown Haagen-Dazs bowl and cup said, “Wait a minute, I’ll go see Qin Qingxue’s autopsy report.” After

speaking, Shao Lao started to flip through the autopsy report. After a while, he said, “The autopsy report shows that , There is a lot of undigested food in Qin Qingxue’s stomach, which means that Qin Qingxue ate all these things.”

“But would anyone eat so much food before committing suicide?” Shao Lao looked at the photo.

Jiang He shook his head and said, “I don’t know about this.”

Veteran Shao put down the photo and asked, “Do you see anything suspicious?”

Jiang He nodded and pointed to the remaining ashes on a photo. He said, “Look, on the side of this candle, you can see a smear of ashes that have burned paper. Judging from the location and quantity of the ashes, the burning paper should not be large.”

Shao Lao patted gently. Table: “Curse.”

“What?” Jiang He asked.

Mr. Shao packed up the photos: “It can be concluded that Qin Qingxue’s death must have something to do with these three people. Haven’t you always wondered why Qin Qingxue committed suicide in such a way? Now I have a good grasp of it. What you are wondering is why Qin Qingxue had such a great sense of ritual when he committed suicide.”

Jiang He nodded lightly.

Mr. Shao continued: “According to folklore, wearing red clothes and placing white candles in the place of suicide is a practice that will turn into a ghost. If a person wants to commit suicide, and decides to turn himself into it. For Li Gui, then her starting point is curse and revenge. On that piece of paper is the list of people she wants to take revenge on, and this is what Shi Wenshan didn’t make clear on the phone!” After speaking

, Mr. Shao continued: “There are three wounds on Qin Qingxue’s right wrist. And now three people have died, which can be matched. And I said that the murderer would take the victim’s mobile phone every time, but he did not take it. Shi Wenshan’s cell phone, which means he doesn’t need to contact anyone, no one will die.”

Jiang He watched Lao Shao put away all the photos and shook his head: “I don’t agree, it’s like Qin Qingxue’s neck. The reason is that the length of the rope is fixed, and it is unrealistic to want to wrap it again. Then she cut her wrist three times. According to the probability, this is very likely. It’s random.”

“No.” Shao Lao waved his hand gently, and he stood up: “I told you that everyone’s seemingly random choices are largely subconscious. Although I have no way to guarantee the ticket, but eight to nine times out of ten it will be what I guessed.”

Shao Lao stood up: “So we have to find out what happened between these four people, as long as we know If there is a connection between things, we can find such a connection. But no matter how Qin Qingxue committed suicide and how much preparation she made before committing suicide, she will not become a ghost.”

Old Shao’s eyes were burning, looking out the window and still confused. The heavy rain stopped: “She is not a ghost, but a ghost is a human being.”

“Who is this person?” Jiang He asked.

Old Shao sighed, “It’s almost dawn now, go back to rest, and we’ll go check it out at seven or eight o’clock. In short, we’re very close to the truth.”

Jiang He nodded.

As soon as the two left the conference room, Xu Yiman came over, seeing Xu Yiman’s red eyes, I am afraid he was extremely distressed.

“Old Shao, Jiang He.” Xu Yiman said, “With new clues, the clues have been analyzed from the footprints that have been extended before. According to the size of the shoe prints and the depth of the mud, we can infer this person. His height is about 1.78 meters, and his weight is about 130 pounds.”

“There are too many men like this.” Xu Yiman said, “But if you can determine a range, it is not impossible. Then, we also analyzed the red silk thread in Shi Wenshan’s fingernails. After identification, it was found that it was made of silk, with an ordinary texture. If it was made into clothes, it would probably cost about 100 yuan. That is to say, it can be used anywhere. I bought a dress like this.”

Shao Lao waved his hand: “It seems that the murderer has a very careful mind. He used ghost revenge to cover up his true identity, but if he can kill for Qin Qingxue, this person must have something to do with Qin Qingxue. He has a close relationship, and he knows what happened.”

Xu Yiman scratched his head: “If I were to guess, could it be Qin Qingxue’s parents?”

Shao Shao shook his head and said, “Qin Qingxue Their parents are ordinary citizens. They opened a small shop and worked from morning to night, and the shop has surveillance cameras. It is very simple to investigate their actions, so they are definitely not murderers. It can be seen from the attitude that they usually don’t pay enough attention to Qin Qingxue.”

“Daughter committed suicide in such a strange way.” Shao Lao was a little helpless, he sighed and said again: “They even thought it was their own. My daughter committed suicide because of her unsatisfactory grades. Although they also love~ daughter, but the way of loving~ daughter is wrong.”

After that, Shao Shao shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly: “However, in order to make money for their daughter to study, how can they pay for it? If you have time to accompany your daughter, they have given Qin Qingxue everything she can do. Then we need to know what kind of person Qin Qingxue is and what makes her commit suicide. ”

Shao Lao moved his body and said, “I’m getting old, and I can’t stay up at night. Look at the two of you, one of your eyes is full of bloodshot eyes, and the other is dark circles that are growing on your face. Go back quickly. Take a break, wait a while, we will continue to investigate the case.”

Several people went back to their rooms to rest.

“I want to be a ghost.”

Jiang He was thinking about this in his head. He didn’t understand that ghosts are obviously non-existent things, and if a person wants revenge, he places his hopes on the ghosts after death. Not sure if this counts as sad or funny. People are stupid and pathetic creatures sometimes.
