Chapter 3: Slap
at still needs your science homework, hurry up and submit it."Xiao Jiang nodded, crouched down, and picked up each exercise book one by one.Gently smoothing out the wrinkles and dust on the surface.Ju..."Gu Yan and Wang Yue are in a romantic relationship."
Jiang Yunbai was stunned, seeming to genuinely not know.
Chen Xiaobo put away his voice recorder and left.
Jiang Yunbai sat alone for a while and suddenly revealed a knowing smile.
"So that's what it means."
At that time, when Wang Yue and his father came to the hospital to donate medical supplies, Wang Yue inadvertently met Jiang Yunbai.
Wang Yue took advantage of the situation and pulled Jiang Yunbai to a blind spot of the surveillance cameras.
"Little White Mouse, so you're hiding here."
"Wang Yue"
Then Wang Yue glanced at Jiang Yunbai's name tag.
"Jiang Yùn Bái So your name is Jiang Yùn Bái"
At that time, Jiang Yunbai could only laugh and cry.
They've been classmates for two years, yet they can't even remember each other's names.
However, that's just how it is.
Wang Yue probably only remembers her nickname.
Jiang Yùn turned her head and was about to leave.
But she was grabbed by Wang Yue and slapped across the face without warning.
"Little white mouse, I tell you, if you try to steal my man, you better look at yourself and see what you are. I'm telling you..."
Slap—
Wang Yue's head tilted to the side, a red mark appearing on her face.
"Jiang Yunbai!"
Wang Yue's hand shot up high before she could take another step, and Jiang Yun's sharp eyes caught her movement. With lightning speed, Jiang Yun stopped her with a wave of her hand.
Jiang Yunbai directly bent Wang Yue's right hand back and smiled, raising an eyebrow.
"Wang Yue, you've forgotten the pain after your wound healed!"
Jiang Yunbai flipped Wang Yue's hand over and showed it to herself.
"If you keep acting so arrogant, I don't mind taking another swipe at other parts of your body."
Wang Yue still glared at Jiang Yunbai with a ferocious look.
But he did not dare to take any other radical actions.
Wang Yue's right palm had a long, thin scar that slanted across it.
It's clearly a scar from a bladed weapon.
"Looks like it came back to you. Remember how you felt then."
Police Department —
A white whiteboard is covered with dense writing and various photos are pinned to it.
Chen Xiaobo sat in front of the writing board and put the photo he had shown Jiang Yubai next to Wang Yue's photo.
Chen Xiaobo recalled the scene of the crime that day.
At first glance, Chen Xiaobo almost concluded that this must be the primary crime scene.
Because there were a large number of splatter bloodstains at the scene.
But there were absolutely no dragging traces.
The deceased was lying in bed, dressed in pajamas, on a bed soaked with blood.
Both the hands and feet were bound with surgical ligatures by the killer.
The forensic pathologist on site concluded that the victim had been dead for at least three to four days because rigor mortis had completely disappeared.
And there were signs of decay in the lower abdomen.
Did the deceased suffer any sexual assault
The forensic doctor shook his head. “No, but she had sexual experience. Other details will have to wait for further autopsy confirmation.”
Chen Xiaobo nodded, "Please submit the report as soon as possible."
The forensic doctor, Zou Yu, patted Chen Xiaobo on the shoulder with a smile.
"When have I ever been late for Captain Chen's reports"
"
Well done.
"
——
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobo turned his head and asked Xiao Xu, who was busy working aside, "Is the autopsy report out yet"
Little Xu shook his head.
"Here I come!"
Song Ming ran up to Chen Xiaobo with the autopsy report in his hand.
Chen Xiaobo flipped through the autopsy report in his hand while listening to Song Ming's analysis.
"As the captain, I personally feel that the killer should be a cold and methodical man. Look at the situation back then, the killer still had the mind to tie Wang Yue with such a complex surgical knot."
Little Xu on the side also put down his work and continued.
Yes, and the fact that he could tie Wang Yue's hands and feet means this person is definitely stronger than her, it's very likely a man.
"What's your take, Captain"
Chen Xiaobo stared at the autopsy report in his hand, lost in thought.
“As you can see, the autopsy report states that Wang Yue died from excessive blood loss. The fatal injury was a rupture of the femoral artery in her left leg, causing massive bleeding. The other three wounds were in the abdomen and not fatal.”
Chen Xiaobo turned the autopsy report to another page.
"Wang Yue's vagina showed no signs of semen and there were no signs of sexual assault."
"We assume that if the perpetrator was a woman, she could have acted directly while Wang Yue was asleep, immobilizing her before tying her up and leaving. With the current evidence, it is difficult to discern the gender characteristics of the perpetrator."
Xiao Xu frowned.
"That's not impossible either. This killer is really calm, watching someone bleed and go into shock, then tying her hands and feet."
Song Ming interrupted.
"No, since Wang Yue has already lost the ability to move, the murderer wouldn't have had any need to tie up her hands and feet. I still think it's more likely that the murderer is a man."
Chen Xiaobo stood up and walked to the whiteboard, pointing at Wang Yue's photo.
"Wang Yue is pretty, isn't she"
Xiao Xu and Song Ming glanced at each other, then recalled Wang Yue's face.
She is indeed a stunning beauty.
"Pretty."
"Which man would be indifferent to a beautiful woman, and it's even more likely that the perpetrator is someone they know"
Chen Xiaobo looked at the network of relationships unfolding around Wang Yue.
Where is Gu Yanren
Xiao Xu replied, "According to our investigation, Gu Yan goes sea fishing at Haishan every year on this day. We haven't been able to contact him yet."
"Contact me as soon as possible."
Chen Xiaobo finished speaking and got up to leave, but before leaving, Chen Xiaobo still heard the conversation between Xiao Xu and Song Ming.
To me, Jiang Yun Bai is more beautiful. It's more pleasant to look at.
Song Ming teased, "Xiao Xu, you wouldn't understand. Captain Chen likes the 'intense makeup' look, the kind that ages well. You can't tell just by looking at him..."
Chen Xiaobo's mind involuntarily flashed a picture of a woman with an oval face, giving off a gentle yet resilient impression.
To be honest, Chen Xiaobo doesn't agree with their evaluation of his aesthetic ability.
***
Technology Department.
Chen Xiaobo looked at the two bloody ropes in the evidence bag.
"Is there any blood or skin flakes on this rope that belong to someone else"
Director Li shook his head. "There's nothing on these two ropes besides the deceased's blood, and after we compared them, we found that they were taken from the curtains in the deceased's house. The fiber organization and cut surface are completely consistent."
Has the weapon been found
Chen Xiaobo pursed his lips.
"No weapon was found at the scene, and the surrounding residential areas were also searched without success."
Moreover, what confused Chen Xiaobo even more was that the autopsy report stated the time of death was seven days ago.
That period happened to coincide with the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Wang Yue's biological father was so heartbroken and devastated when he identified the body at the police station.
But Wang Yue died for seven days before anyone found out.
Although Wang Yue had applied for leave from her unit in advance...
Where is Wang Yue's phone Give it to me.
Chen Xiaobo picked up his phone and opened his WeChat chat history.
The leave request message was sent at 1:30 AM on the 22nd.
That is to say, this message is very likely to be sent by the murderer.
It is very possible that the time of the incident was 1:30 AM on the 22nd.
"Hey, Chen team, where are you going"ir argument, Jiang Yùn Bai's cup shattered on the floor.The water in the cup spilled all over Gu Yan's chest."Ding dong—"Gu Yan looked at Jiang Yunbai, who was motionless and standing still. He could...
