I handled the murder of a female student in a high school. The girls in the same dormitory are friendly on the surface. My roommate
had just been killed, and a girl actually accosted a handsome investigator on the spot. It was early in the morning when I
received the case. The security department of
a university called and said that there had been a murder, and that it was a murder.
This is rare. Usually, police cases in colleges and universities are usually public security cases and civil
disputes.
Young people are full of vigor and vitality. They do things without considering the consequences. I have seen a lot of
things when they don’t agree with each other.
However, it is very rare to directly classify it as murder. Han Dongsheng and
I went to the scene to have a look, only to understand that this case may be difficult to murder.
The deceased was a girl with long hair, fair skin and a good figure. The girl lying in the toilet was wearing a silk pajamas, and there were several tears on the clothes.
The pajamas are so dark that it’s hard to tell if there’s blood on them.
I took a closer look at the deceased’s face and found that she seemed to have a moderately deep scratch on her face.
“Disfigured?” Han Dongsheng also saw it and said to himself. Not
really. But it wasn’t a stab wound. It was more like someone had deliberately cut it. It doesn’t look like it was part of the murder. I said, “We’ll have to wait for the technicians.”
From the purple and black ligature marks on his neck, it was obvious that the deceased had been strangled, apparently with a rope.
I looked at the young face and felt sorry for her. Although
Han Dongsheng is young, his courage is not small. He frowned, put on his gloves, looked at the scene, shook his head and said, “There are no obvious marks, and there is no residue.”
It seems that the murderer has a certain anti-investigation ability. There was no personal trace at the scene, and it was obviously cleaned up.
“Let’s wait for the technicians to look at it.” I said, “Let’s go back and ask the witnesses. In addition, we should check the identity of the deceased.” Although
people are dead, their appearance is clear, their clothes are still there, and they are relatively complete. The technician’s examination showed that he had not been sexually abused. The location of the incident was in the female dormitory building, and it was easy to investigate. It was not long before the identity of the
deceased was found.
Yan Yan lives in a dormitory on the floor where the case occurred. This school female student, some specialty is studying, 20
years old, big three.
Yan Yan lives in the dormitory on the sixth floor of this building. There are four people living in the dormitory, belonging to two different
departments.
“Why don’t the roommates live in the same department?” Han Dongsheng asked curiously.
“Neither do we.” A girl with short hair said, “That’s how the school is divided.”
In fact, this is normal. Dormitory tension, it is impossible for a department of students to live in the same dormitory
, many colleges and universities are like this.
“Has Yen Yen always lived in the dormitory?” I asked.
“What do you mean by always?” The girl with short hair asked, her eyes flashing.
“I mean, has she been living in the dormitory and not renting a house or anything
?” I speak frankly.
“No.” She shook her head. “I’ve been living in the dormitory all my life.”
“What time did Yan Yan return to the dormitory last night?” I asked, “Or did she go back to the dormitory
?”
When did you leave the dormitory? No one knows.
“That is to say, after lights out at ten o’clock at night, you only see Yen Yen resting, and no
one ever sees her go out again?” I asked. All three
of them were nodding, but I found that one of the girls had a momentary hesitation.
It’s the girl with short hair.
“What’s your name?” I asked her.
“Hu Qian.” She was a little nervous and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” I looked at the list in my hand and smiled. “I have a list in my hand.
I need to know who you are.”
“Does Yan Yan have a boyfriend?” I asked.
This is a very common question. After all, there are many
emotional reasons for criminal cases in Colleges and universities.
Unexpectedly, the three girls at the scene looked at each other and did not speak for a long time.
I realized something was wrong and motioned to a girl with long hair, “What’s wrong?”? Is there anything wrong
?
She.. Yes, there is. The girl said, but her tone was a little hesitant. The two girls next to her looked
at her and said nothing.
I asked again, but no one answered. Something tells me that something is wrong.
Han Tung-sheng could not help saying sternly, “Let’s cooperate. This is a case investigation.”
I looked back at him and waved my hand to show that I was all right.
Then I nodded to the girl with long hair and motioned her to stay first.
Tell other two people again, go to the side to wait first, there will be a teacher to accompany everyone.
When Han Dongsheng came back to turn on the equipment, I looked at the girl opposite, Wang Jingya, and
said, “Go on, does Yan Yan have a boyfriend?”
“I don’t know.” This time she’s much more straightforward. “I can’t
figure out who she is. She’s quite lively and has a wide range of contacts.”
“You mean she has some problems in her private life?”
“I didn’t say, but she has a lot of boyfriends.” The girl bit her lip and said, “
It’s not good for me to say that, but I can’t lie.”. But we really don’t know who
she’s talking to right now.
“You said you had a lot of boyfriends, but why did you say you didn’t know who to talk to?” Han Dongsheng asked curiously
.
Wang Jingya told us that Yan Yan seldom fell in love with the boys in her school, but basically with people outside
the school. She never talked about it with her roommates. At the beginning, people would ask about it
. Every time she changed the subject and stopped asking.
“She has such a rich emotional experience. Will many people have a problem with her?”. I answered, “I don’t have any opinion. After all, she doesn’t talk to the boys on campus.”. But there were a lot of people chasing her, but none of them succeeded. Even if we girls fall in love, most of our boyfriends are from the school, and we all get along quite well.
“From what you know about her, do you think she’s in love?” I looked at Wang Jingya, and the implication was self-evident.
She immediately understood what I meant. She waved her hand and said, “I did meet one of her boyfriends by chance. He was a boy about our age. They were really in love.”. She often calls her boyfriend in the dormitory, and you can tell that she is really in love, not what you think.
Wang Jingya also said that she did change her boyfriend very frequently. But this is not easy to evaluate, can only say that she has rich feelings.
“Is there anyone at school who has a problem with her?” I asked.
No, at least I don’t know. It’s not enough to kill people, is it? Besides, we students, who has the guts to kill? I can’t even think about it. Some of the girls hate Yen Yen. Apart from the fact that she is emotionally fickle, some of it is actually out of jealousy. After all, she is really popular among the boys. But that’s not killing people.
“She’s pretty, and a lot of guys like her.” Wang Jingya added another sentence. At
this point, I would like to think of a noteworthy question: Who was the first to find the body?
According to the school, it was a girl who went to the bathroom. However, I want to know Wang Ching-ya’s “I don’t know, it’s not me anyway.” Wang Jingya murmured, “When I knew about this, it was already this morning.”. The whole building blew up, and the girls said everything. Some say she’s been dismembered, some say she’s been disfigured, but rumors are flying everywhere. I didn’t dare go out of the dormitory all morning. I heard that the bathroom had been sealed. I won’t dare go there again.
I thought about it and then asked, “When was the last time she was in the dormitory?”
“I don’t know.” Wang Ching-ya thought for a moment and said, “I went to bed early and didn’t pay attention.”. I went to bed at about 9:30 last night, when she had come back and was still awake. As for where she went before that, who knows?
“Is the relationship between Hu Qian and Yan Yan good?” I thought of the girl with short hair before, and suddenly asked.
Just so so. In fact, several people in our dormitory have a general relationship. Yan Yan is not in our department, but is assigned to our dormitory. Their department has fewer classes than ours, more leisure, and the pace of life is different from ours. In addition, everyone has their own affairs, so the relationship is not very close.
She thought for a moment and then said, “But she’s a nice person. At least she hasn’t brought boys to the dormitory.”. It’s not like some people who bring their boyfriends to the dormitory with a swagger and don’t leave until very late, regardless of other people in the dormitory. When I
heard this, I felt strange and asked, “Does the dormitory manager not care? Can boys enter the girls’ dormitory?”
“Tube.” Wang Ching-ya says, But sometimes there are boys sneaking in, and the housekeeper’s eyes are not so good. Because I haven’t done anything out of line, it’s not easy to get rid of people in the same bedroom, but it’s too disgusting for two people to be so bored.
I thought thoughtfully, and Han Tung-sheng interjected: “Well, you have to go back. How can these
boys get out of the building?” Just
go out. When they went out, the dormitory found out that there was nothing they could do about it, so they couldn’t report it to the school because of this
. But after they found out many times, the dormitory became very strict, so
this kind of thing rarely happens now. The next person
we want to talk to is Hu Qian. When
she sat opposite me, her face was very perturbed.
“Did you see Yan Yan go out last night?” I asked directly. Surprised,
she stared at me for a few seconds before saying, “What do you mean?” You didn’t tell us the truth
just now. Am I
right in saying that you must be hiding something?
“No, I told you everything I know.” Hu Qian bit her lip and answered.
I had to remind her that this was a murder case, and the consequences of lying could be imagined.
Han Dongsheng could not help warning her that lying meant that it was probably
related to the murder.
Hu Qian suddenly turned her head and stared at Han Dongsheng, her eyes wide open and her face full of fear
. “According to them, Yen Yen was killed in the early morning?” Hu Qian hesitated for a moment before she spoke. I was surprised by
her reaction, and I paused for a moment before telling her that I had nothing to say.
Hu Qian told us that she really didn’t lie, and she really didn’t know if Yan Yan had ever gone out.
But! She paused and suddenly said, “But I saw her come back.”
This time it was my turn to open my eyes wide and ask anxiously, “When did this happen?”
“About four o’clock in the morning.” Hu Qian looked straight at me. “I slept in a daze. I vaguely saw her go back to the dormitory to get something, and then she went out.” How do
you know it’s around four o’clock? Remember so clearly. Han Dongsheng’s question is also my first reaction. This semester,
she always gets up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. She goes there almost every day. It’s quite a fixed personal habit. I was a light sleeper, and at first I was woken up almost every time, and I asked her to move a little less, and then she paid attention to it. So that day I was woken up again, and I was a little upset, so I took my cell phone and looked at the time, and I said to her, “Keep your voice down.” Hu Chien said, “But she didn’t answer, as if she hadn’t heard. She pushed the door and went out.”
Are you sure it’s her? You said it yourself just now, in a daze. Did you see it clearly? Hu Qian was very nervous when she finished, as if she had revealed a big secret. Han Dongsheng and I comforted her several times before she gradually calmed down a little. She was a little trembling
until she left.
In fact, for a few minutes after she left, we all remained silent, and there was a strange atmosphere in the air that slowly spread, which was uncomfortable.
Yes, Han Dongsheng and I both remembered what the forensic doctor Xu said after the autopsy.
“It’s a pity that the nice girl is gone.” Big Xu turned around and took off his gloves. “You asked me about the time of death, right? It was between nine o’clock last night and three o’clock in the morning. It won’t be any later.” Between nine
in the evening and three in the morning.
That is to say, when Hu Qian saw Yan Yan return to the dormitory, the girl was already dead. Damn it
.
The remaining girl, Li Qingping, looks very ordinary, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, and looks cold.
“Are you sure you didn’t see Yan Yan leave or return to the dormitory?” I asked the question as usual.
“No.” She said, “I’ve been listening to English in bed, and I haven’t paid attention to anything else.”. I usually go to bed very late at night. It was eleven o’clock after listening to English. At that time, Yan Yan was still lying in bed. And then I fell asleep. “Do you know anything about Yen Yen’s feelings?” I asked.
“She has a lot of boys chasing after her, which is not surprising. She’s good-looking, and it’s normal for people to like her.” Li Ching-ping says, “Unlike me, ugly people can only read more books.”
Then she laughed at herself, but it wasn’t long before she got a straight face again.
Indeed, the counselor has introduced to us that Li Qingping is the best student in the whole dormitory, and even one of the best in the whole department.
“What about Yen Yen?” I asked.
“I think it’s not bad.” Li Ching-ping answered with some caution, “She’s beautiful, she’s rich, and she doesn’t have any airs. She’s very easy to talk to.”. I usually go out to attend a lecture or something, and when I need makeup, I always ask her to help me, and I often ask her to recommend cosmetics. I am really far behind her in
this respect. I don’t look like a very good person. Li Qingping’s words seem to be a little sour.
“Don’t say that. You’re pretty, too.” I comforted her and went on to ask, “I hear she has a lot of boyfriends?”
“I don’t know about that, but I dare not say anything.” Li Ching-ping adjusted his glasses. “People’s words are awesome. Anyway, I think she’s pretty good.”. If you have a lot of people chasing you, you don’t necessarily have a lot of boyfriends, right?
Indeed, people’s words are awesome. I recall that Hu Qian mentioned that during this time, Yen Yen was always up in the early hours of the morning, “I really didn’t know that.” Li Ching-ping says, “I was a heavy sleeper and didn’t notice it.”
I thought about it and asked, “I have another question, which may be a little abrupt. If it’s convenient, please answer it.”
Li Qingping nodded.
“Do you know how many pajamas Yen Yen owns?”
Her face suddenly became unnatural, and she did not speak for a moment, as if she did not understand why I suddenly asked this.
Look at the expression, Han Dongsheng also quite do not understand, but I still insist that she answer this question.
“Maybe three or four. I can’t remember.” “I don’t care about this kind of thing, and I don’t think you should either.”
I smiled and said nothing. After chatting
with the three girls in the dormitory, at least about Yan Yan’s return to the dormitory, it seems no problem at present. She returned to the dormitory at eight o’clock last night. The investigation showed that she had gone to the library to read books before and had never been out of school. Then
, Yan Yan went to bed at about ten o’clock in the evening. At eleven o’clock, she was still in the dormitory. Within four hours, she became an unrecognizable corpse in the bathroom. After the
conversation, I asked Han Dongsheng and the counselor to send some girls back to the dormitory. When I
went back, Han Dongsheng looked at me hesitantly. After a few minutes, he couldn’t help
sighing: “Girls today are really not simple.”
“What do you mean?” I stopped to pull the door open and asked him.
“The girl named Hu Qian, when I sent them back, asked me for a phone call
, saying that she had something to report to me.”
“What’s wrong with that? It’s not normal.”
But in my opinion, the way she spoke and the tone of her voice were abnormal. You’ve been there
, so you should understand. Han Dongsheng said.
I understood immediately. Han Dongsheng looks good, but he is a handsome guy. Her
roommate had just died, and she was neither afraid nor sad, and she was still
in the mood to chat up handsome men.
“This girl is a little interesting.” I looked at Han Dongsheng and said, “Why don’t you
pay more attention to her?”
“Don’t.” He waved his hand. “I’m just reporting. Don’t let me go to her
alone to find out the situation.”. If you want to go together, I think this kind of girl is a little annoying.
I made a joke, and Han Dongsheng took it seriously. Come on, don’t tease him. Then
I asked him the main thing: “Did you ask the other two girls about the thing you asked?”
“I’ve asked, and they all say they’ve seen three pairs of pajamas recently worn by the deceased.” “But after I asked this question, the way they looked at me was not right at that time. I
suspected that Hu Qian asked me for my phone number because of this.”
Han Dongsheng finished, but also did not forget to repair the knife said, know I am not this kind of person, but this question
is really too obscene.
“You’re wrong. This is a very important question.” Here I deliberately kept you in suspense,
saying, “I’ll tell you why later.”
But you’re right about one thing. This girl is a little abnormal. Her roommate is
dead, but her attention is on the handsome guy. Is she so heartless?
I got serious.
In other words, if it’s not heartless, then how much enmity do these two girls have?
Forensic identification results showed that Yan Yan was beaten from behind and fainted, and then strangled with a rope
. Because the scene is a cement floor, there are not too many signs of struggle, and the process
may not be too long.
“Have you recovered any trace of physical evidence such as epidermis?” I asked Xu.
“No.” He yawned and said, “Dude, you ran into a tall man. I guess you’re wearing gloves
.”
“What about the wound on the face?” I think of that shallow scar.
“It was a sharp cut, but the wound was shallow and just reached the dermis.” “The person who did it
didn’t use force,” says Big Hsu.
I know she died of suffocation, but the result is still surprising. Technique is only one aspect. In fact, this kind of disfigurement after death is even more surprising. The face of
the body was mutilated and cut with a knife, which is a very emotional act, indicating that the murderer should have an emotional entanglement with the deceased. Besides, it’s not like a woman can strangle a girl with her bare hands after hitting her.
It’s not that I can’t bear it, it’s more of a physiological sense of disgust. Whoever did this had a love-hate relationship with the victim.
There is every indication that there is a strong possibility that the murderer is male. There is no surveillance in the
corridor. This is not surprising, the corridor of the female dormitory is naturally a sensitive area, especially in summer, everyone wears cool clothes, so many female dormitory buildings in Colleges and universities are not equipped with monitoring.
Naturally, we can’t find any clues. There was only one surveillance camera at the entrance of the hall in
the whole building. After checking the video, Han Dongsheng looked depressed.
As expected, the camera shot from a high angle, only to the top, and from the surveillance screen, a cluster of black hair moved into the building, like a shampoo advertisement.
Han Dongsheng looked at it for a few minutes and suddenly turned around and told me that the screen was full of hair, which looked a little scary.
“Stupid, you won’t look at the distant view.” I said, “Just stare at it up close.”
“See for yourself.” Han Dongsheng smiled bitterly and moved the handle. Only then did I realize that the distant view could not see people’s faces at all, let alone identify them. But it’s still useful, after all, the color of the clothes can be seen clearly. If the color difference is relatively large, it will be OK, and if the color difference is small, it will be blurred. Especially at night, a little farther away, it melts into the night.
It seems that it is very difficult to get first-hand information from the camera. But I have a stupid way, can not see the face, at least can see the number of people. So Han Dongsheng and I counted the number of people who entered the building in one night.
This check is really a great discovery. As soon as I checked with the number of people staying in the building, there was a difference of more than 30 people. That is to say, on the night of the crime, more than 30 people either did not go out or did not come back.
The housekeeper looked helpless, and I understood it in seconds. Some students stay out at night, which is not a new thing in ordinary colleges and universities. After all, some colleges and universities are loose and some are strict, but there are still fish that slip through the net.
It seems that there is a loophole in the guard management of this school. It suddenly occurred to me that since no one cared about the students who went out, it would not be surprising if someone came in.
Normal class time monitoring can not see, hundreds of girls dressed in various clothes, different sizes come out of the building, it is not realistic to find out the number of girls, and some girls are running out, disappeared in an instant.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, it was found that more than a dozen girls had slipped back to the dormitory building like thieves, and the aunt could not hang on her face, looking like she had no love for life. After the investigation, the aunt was immediately transferred from the position of the building manager.
But time showed that when the dozen girls came back, the murder had already happened, so their traces were not important.
The important thing is that one of the girls is a witness, named Jiang Jingjing.
Sitting in front of me, Jiang Jingjing looked frightened, his eyes dodged, and he looked guilty.
“Tell me what you found.” I tried to be as gentle as possible in my questioning.
“I came back quite late, and as soon as I came back, I went to the bathroom first, and I was pulling open a compartment, and as soon as I opened the door, I found a hand stretched out, and then I saw a girl with dishevelled hair lying on the ground, her hand stretched straight ahead, and she didn’t move.” Jiang Jingjing stammered.
“About what time?” I asked. It’s past
five o’clock. My first reaction was that I thought someone had fainted inside, and I immediately went over to help her up. As a result, I was startled, and I was out of breath, staring at me like a ghost. I was so frightened that I screamed and ran to find the housekeeper.
“You didn’t tell anyone about this, did you?” No
, no. At that time, I was almost scared out of my mind. My legs were shaking when I walked. I didn’t dare to think about it, let alone say it everywhere. Besides, aren’t you always told not to talk nonsense until the case is solved?
All right, let’s talk about you now. Where were you before five o’clock?
Jiang Jingjing obviously hesitated for a moment. I have to remind her that according to our investigation, the school has considered punishing her, so it doesn’t make much sense to hide her whereabouts at this time.
“Unless you have something to do with this case.” I’ll speak slowly.
Absolutely not! I came back around four o’clock in the morning and spent the whole night in the bar. When I came back, the housekeeper opened the door for me. There were four girls with me, and they could testify to me!
We have already known about it. For us, the time of your return is more important.
Four o’clock.. I looked at the figure of Jiang Jingjing leaving, talking to myself, and asked Han Dongsheng behind me what he thought.
“Come back at four o’clock. As we know, this is the right time.” Han Tung-sheng says, “She did go to the bar, but she didn’t do anything out of the ordinary. She just had a few drinks, and then she came back. She checked everything.”
The four girls have also been checked, which should be no problem. The bar’s surveillance is much clearer than here.
Jiang Jingjing found Yan Yan at five o’clock in the morning, and the test showed that she had been killed at that time. We’ve seen the surveillance, and no one left the hallway between the time she was killed and this time, which means the killer didn’t leave the building until then. Only at four o’clock in the morning did a dozen girls sneak in. But we didn’t find anyone going out, only the girls came in. Where did the murderer go? Han Dongsheng was very confused.
“Yes.” I nodded. “You’ve got a point. Where did the murderer go?” Han Dongsheng and
I walked in the campus, looking at the young faces coming and going, everyone’s face was filled with youthful vigor and tender. The tragedy that happened in the girls’ dormitory last night seems to be a matter of another world.
“There are two possibilities.” I looked at the new housekeeper in front of the building and said, “First, the murderer didn’t leave the building. He was always in the building.”. Second, the man slipped out of the building in an unexpected way.
Han Dongsheng looked at me, did not speak, and his eyes were complicated.
I laughed. If this is big Xu, already on the attack: “You this is not nonsense, and did not say the same.”.
Nonsense, right. But I’m not finished yet. If it was in the building, how could this person not be found? There must have been no one in the bathroom at the time of the crime, or probably no one, otherwise the murderer could not commit the crime.
So the time is likely to be early morning or midnight. After all, at that time, the number of people who got up at night to go to the toilet was the least, but it was not certain that there was no one. That is to say, if the murderer chooses this crime site, there is no guarantee that it will not be broken. But he (she) succeeded, and there was still time to clean up the crime scene. What does that mean?
Han Dongsheng did not speak, but his eyes told me that he understood.
I went on to conclude, of course, that there was an element of luck. Maybe the killer was lucky that no one went in or out of the bathroom at that time, which gave the killer enough chance to commit the crime. But on the other hand, the murderer’s luck could not be so good that no one came to the toilet until five o’clock in the morning, which is obviously unrealistic. There are hundreds of girls living in one building. There are dozens of people on this floor alone. It’s impossible that no one goes to the toilet for such a long time.
So, almost certainly, by 5:00 in the morning, the killer had already left. Look at
it this way, it doesn’t really matter if there’s someone in the bathroom, the killer didn’t commit the crime for a long time, and he chose one of the compartments. In such a short period of time, even if someone happens to go to the toilet, it is not necessary to go to that grid.
Besides, the scene is in the bathroom, and it doesn’t take long to clean up.
Yes! This brings us back to the question, after the crime, where did the murderer go? Or rather, where can killer go?
“I see. No wonder you keep bringing that up.” Han Tung-sheng suddenly became excited. “You mean murderer was a woman?”
Unless the killer found the perfect way to sneak out of the building, I can’t think of anything else.
Again, a place full of girls, if the murderer is a man, where can he hide?
Even if he coughed, he would probably be noticed immediately. Although the girls’ dormitory is quiet at night, just because it is quiet, a little movement may become a sharp
alarm.
At least it won’t make the whole building unconscious, but here’s the thing, no one noticed anything unusual until the body was found. This is the biggest anomaly.
So I mean, the killer is probably not just a woman, but a woman who lives in this building.
“But there are so many girls living in this building. It could be any one of them.” Han Dongsheng is almost dizzy by me.
More than that. Maybe you missed someone else, someone that the girls in this building habitually turn a blind eye to when they meet.
“Who could it be?” Han Dongsheng was stunned and looked at me and asked.
Like I said, a girl sees her as someone she didn’t see. Sometimes people’s memory will be biased, when you get used to a person always appear in the line of sight, the brain will erase the existence of this person in the memory. When I deliberately recall her, I can’t remember her. The expression on
Han Dongsheng’s face gradually unfolded, and he should have thought of who this person was.
The housekeeper!
That’s right, the former housekeeper. Although the girls we asked said there was nothing unusual, it did not mean that they had not seen the dormitory management aunt in the building. Maybe they just ignored this beefy woman. Judging
from her physique, she is quite capable of strangling a thin girl. The former housekeeper showed an awe-inspiring and inviolable attitude towards us. Obviously, compared with his own negligence, the fear brought by the murder is not enough. Although she seemed quite righteous, we did not ignore the investigation of her.
Unfortunately, nothing has been found, whether it is the testimony of the girl who went to the bathroom or the direct evidence, which shows that the housekeeper has no time to commit the crime. I have to say, I made a mistake this time. After
finishing the aunt’s inquiry, Han Dongsheng shook his head in the sun and said, “It’s incredible.”. At that scene, the killer was a girl? Is it possible? Judging
from the modus operandi, it is true that the possibility of girls is very small. There are few girls who can strangle a person.
But in this world, nothing is absolutely impossible. All hypotheses can only be hypotheses, and evidence is the most important.
The problem is, even the girls in the building, we didn’t hear any clues when we asked. Han Dongsheng seemed to remember something and asked, “The school has already asked the girls in the whole building, but no one has reported anything unusual, and according to the response of the building management, it seems that nothing has been found.” Just because
no one found an anomaly doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Just because no one noticed a stranger in the bathroom doesn’t mean no one met anyone else in the bathroom. If you are a girl and meet another girl you don’t know in the bathroom early in the morning, you won’t feel anything unusual.
But this guy could be the killer.
So I think all the women who went to the bathroom in the early hours of that morning are suspects. It’s
back to the unsolvable problem. You can’t expect anyone else in the dorm to notice that someone has been out of the dorm during this time. After all, it’s too early. Everyone is still sleeping. Even if they noticed, they were very few students.
Like Hu Qian.
I always think Wang Jingya’s words are a little interesting. I said to Han Dongsheng, “She said that some girls are disgusting and like to bring their boyfriends to the dormitory.”. Do you remember?
“Remember.” Han Tung-sheng replied, “That’s not surprising. Although it’s not a quality thing, it’s not a rare thing.”
But I always felt that she meant something when she said that. As she said, there are some things that girls don’t say directly.
Han Dongsheng’s eyes lit up. “Do you mean to say that she might be alluding to a certain roommate?”
“Remember that Hu Qian who asked for your phone number?” I reminded him.
“Even if she’s talking about Hu Qian, what does it have to do with this case?” Han Dongsheng still hasn’t figured it out.
Have you forgotten that Wang Ching-ya once said that when a girl brings a boy into the dormitory, the dormitory manager sometimes can’t find out. Do you really think it’s the housekeeper’s negligence? The hall is such a big place, and if a boy goes in, he won’t be able to see?
“So if there is such a thing, it is very likely that Hu Qian is helping a boy and covering his way into the girls’ dormitory.” Han Dongsheng got excited.
Yes, the dormitory manager also leaves occasionally, such as going to the toilet, or going to the dormitory to deal with electrical problems and so on. This is not difficult to do, as long as someone pays attention to this information and tells the boy this gap at any time, he can easily slip in. When I left, I guess it was the same.
“Won’t the other girls report it when they find out?” As soon as Han Tung-sheng finished speaking, he waved his hand in self-denial. “That’s right. People in the same dormitory don’t care, and no one else will say anything.”
No matter who Wang Jingya is talking about, this person has at least done this kind of thing to let boys in. It seems that it is time to contact Hu Qian again.
Things are not difficult to investigate. Because of the confirmation of other girls in the same dormitory, Hu Qian quickly admitted that she had indeed brought boys into the dormitory that day. But she pointed to the sky and said that she had done nothing but bring boys to the dormitory to chat. Although the other girls expressed varying degrees of disgust, they also confirmed that they did not do anything out of line.
We quickly found the boy, Hu Qian’s ex-boyfriend. The boy was very frightened at first, but he was relieved to hear us ask this. He admitted directly that he had been to the dormitory, but he did not feel that he had done anything wrong. That night, the boy had been playing cards with the people in the dormitory and went to bed around one o’clock in the morning. All the students in the dormitory could testify. The
investigation has re-entered a dead end here.
But on the other hand, we have a new discovery. After asking the boy, Han Dongsheng told me that he was quite surprised. Hu Qian didn’t lie about taking the boy back to the dormitory.
“What do you mean, why does she have to lie?” I asked.
I have always felt that her integrity is questionable. For example, at the very beginning, she hid the fact that she saw the deceased returning to the dormitory. Later, what she said sounded like a fabrication. I even suspected that she had made up the whole thing to deceive us.
“So far, although she hasn’t lied to us again, I still think she has the biggest problem.” Han Dongsheng said.
“We haven’t found any physical evidence yet, and that’s the biggest problem.” I said, “It’s all speculation, there’s no evidence to support it, and there’s no real help to catch the murderer.”
But I don’t agree with what Han Dongsheng said. What Hu Qian said is not necessarily the truth. This girl may behave inappropriately, but she may not be telling lies.
“That’s ridiculous.” Anxious, Han Dongsheng suddenly stood up and said, “The deceased died before three o’clock in the morning, but Hu Qian said she saw the deceased come back to the dormitory at four o’clock. What is this if not a lie?”? Are there really ghosts?
“You only remember her saying that Yen Yen went back to the dormitory. Did you notice another sentence she said?” I say.
“She said she saw Yen Yen coming back to the dormitory to get something.” I reminded him, “So the question is, if what Hu Qian said is true, what
will the person returning to the dormitory take?”
“Cell Phone!” Han Dongsheng almost shouted out, “The victim’s cell phone is missing.”
Yes. It’s not surprising that the deceased’s mobile phone was not found at the scene of the crime. It’s normal for a girl to go to the bathroom without her mobile phone.
Unexpectedly, Yan Yan’s mobile phone was not found in the whole dormitory. We even checked the library she went to, and there’s still no sign of the phone.
We checked Yan Yan’s communication records through her mobile phone number and found that her calls were all right. The recent calls were all takeout or normal calls between classmates. No abnormalities were found after the investigation.
But the fact that the mobile phone is missing is a big doubt.
“Could it be that the killer stole the phone and threw it into the sewer?” Han Dongsheng suddenly said.
He frowned and sighed that it would be troublesome. Another
possibility, what if it’s another person who returns to the dormitory? The purpose of the man’s return to the dormitory is to take away the mobile phone. Usually before going to bed, everyone will play with their mobile phones for a while, and it’s normal to put them on the bedside. So if someone returns to the dormitory, it is not difficult to get the mobile phone quickly. The
difficult thing is to return to the dormitory. This person’s psychological quality is very good. Another man, that makes sense. I patted Han Dongsheng.
He looked as if hesitating to speak. Then I said, “You want to say that Hu Qian insisted that what she saw was the dead, right?”
“In a daze, people’s memories can be biased. Moreover, Hu Qian lived in the upper berth, while the deceased lived in the lower berth. From the top down, you can’t see her face clearly. If someone had put on the deceased’s pajamas and returned to the dormitory to get her cell phone, Hu Qian would not have noticed anything unusual.” I said, “I think this may be the reason why although Hu Qian complained a few words, the people she saw did not answer.”
“Go and check it out.” “Isn’t this an important clue?” Asks Han Tung-sheng.
I’m already on it. I asked Daxu to extract DNA from the pajamas to see if he found anything.
Theoretically, if my theory is true, there should be more to find than victim’s DNA.
Han Dongsheng was suddenly enlightened. Although the murderer may be wearing gloves to commit the crime, he must wear the pajamas and return to the dormitory, otherwise, it is too easy to expose.
“No wonder you made me ask them how many pajamas the victim had.” He laughed. “That’s the purpose.”. If Yen Yen only had one set of pajamas, then the murderer might have prepared the same set in advance, right?
Indeed, that would be troublesome. Fortunately, they all confirmed that the deceased had at least three sets of pajamas to change, which basically ruled out the possibility of early preparation.
I looked at my watch. Big Xu hasn’t given me the result yet, but it’s almost time.
Girls’ pajamas are generally impossible for others to wear. So in theory, the only DNA on this pajama
is the DNA of the victim. But if I’m right, and there’s DNA from someone other
than victim on the pajamas, then that person is almost certainly the killer.
And this guy must have had an unusual relationship with the victim. Because the victim was found
fully clothed.
What? Han Dongsheng didn’t react at once.
If you were a murderer, and you didn’t know the victim well, and you took off her pajamas, would you put them back on a
corpse? Putting pajamas on a dead person is not only a matter of fear, but
also a very troublesome thing. Of course, pajamas are roomy and relatively easy to wear, but they also
take time. For the murderer, this is a drag to expose himself. Unless, of course,
the killer was concerned that the victim was naked.
“Yes.” Han Dongsheng said: The murderer and the deceased must have known each other, otherwise how could we know
that the deceased would go to the bathroom at that time. Besides, there was the
knife in the dead man’s face.
It’s definitely not a random killing. Yan Yan’s death was premeditated. If it weren’t for acquaintances, how would the murderer
know which dormitory Yan Yan lived in?
Most importantly, the murderer also knew that Yan Yan would go to the bathroom at that time. Yan Yan has the habit of getting up
at night, and not many people know about it.
That’s why I asked a few girls individually. Now it seems that it is necessary.
“You are awesome.” Big Hsu says excitedly, “I really found DNA other than that of
the deceased.”
I was about to laugh when he said, “Strange, it’s a man.”.
My smile suddenly stiffened. Daxu went on to say that there was no match in the database, and I hung up after a few perfunctory
words.
Male? Han Dongsheng muttered as if he had eaten a fly. Is it a man
who wears Yan Yan’s pajamas? Once again
things have come full circle. On the
positive side, this at least explains why it’s possible for the victim to be strangled, after all, the possibility of the murderer
being a man has increased sharply.
Han Dongsheng is calm instead. “I think we’ve fallen into
the wrong trap. It’s not necessarily that a man can’t pretend to be a girl.”
“Yes, and he’s a short, thin boy.” I said, “Or
they’ll find out right away.”
“It’s the same question you raised.” Han Dongsheng said, “Before committing the crime, he may
have hidden somewhere in the bathroom. After committing the crime, where did he go?”
Also, how did he get into the dormitory building?
Generally speaking, it is impossible for him to get into the girls’ dormitory without an insider. But the foyer goes in. We did not see a man in the surveillance, nor did we find any trace of a man in the building. Then there’s only one possibility. The killer got out of the building among the girls.
“There are no men in the video.” Han Tung-sheng said to himself, “So this person is pretending to be a girl?”
“Yes.” I said, “That’s the only explanation.” The
mobile phone is missing, which means that there are important things in it that must be destroyed. Obviously, that’s what can prove the relationship between the deceased and the murderer. Since there is no problem with the call records, it can only be the content stored in the mobile phone, such as photos or videos, so the murderer will return to the dormitory to get the mobile phone even at great risk. It is not realistic to find a mobile phone
at this stage. But our scope is already very small, and the inquiry is very thorough, which can help us to investigate the murderer.
“I see.” Han Dongsheng’s eyes sparkled. “We have material evidence on hand now, and we can confirm that there are people in this dormitory who have something to do with this murder. We’ve already asked them about the pajamas, and that’s a warning.”
Pretty good. After cutting the grass, it’s time to catch the snake. If you ask me, someone must be starting to panic. Although
we can’t find anything on the mobile phone records of the deceased, we may not have a breakthrough on other people’s mobile phones. A
breakthrough soon appeared. Looking at the phone records of three girls in the same house of the deceased, we found that only one girl had been in frequent contact with a phone recently, and the time was when I
sat in front of us, she held her eyes, and her face was as cold
as ever.
“You said you slept like a log at night, didn’t you?” I asked. “Yes, I slept like a log,” said
Li Ching-ping, with a faint look of tension on his face.
“You said yourself that you actually went to bed very late, because you were doing very well in your studies, and naturally
you were under a lot of pressure to study. I don’t think you can sleep very
well under such a lot of pressure.” I said, “Besides, the time between Yen-yan getting up at night and you going to bed isn’t
that long. Maybe she’ll get up before you fall asleep.”
She did not speak and lowered her head slightly.
“You know Yen has a habit of getting up at night, don’t you?” I say.
“So what if I know she has a habit of getting up at night? It’s not against
the law.” Li Qingping said.
Of course not. But if you tell someone about it and let them take advantage of it, then
forget it.
Li Qingping raised his head and looked at me with an expressionless face, but Han Dongsheng, sitting on one side,
spoke.
“Don’t tremble. We haven’t got to the point yet.” He said.
“I’m not shaking.” Li Ching-ping said, “Your eyes are not good.”
“It doesn’t matter whether our eyes are good or not, but the eyes of the forensic examiners are very good.” I said, “We have found your ex-boyfriend, and the DNA extracted from Yan Yan’s pajamas is a perfect match.”
“What pajamas?” Li Qingping has a calm face.
“Yan Yan’s pajamas.” I said, “Your ex-boyfriend Li Dong came back to your dormitory in this dress.”. Of course you knew that, because you were in the dormitory at that time.
“Why did you do that?” I asked directly.
“I don’t have to tell you.” She raised her head, pursed her lips, and never said another word. The trial of
Li Dong was not good enough. The short, thin and pale boy quickly confessed to the crime of killing Yan Yan. The knives and ropes at the scene, as well as Yan Yan’s mobile phone, were thrown into a lake in the outer suburbs by him. After being salvaged, his clear fingerprints and the DNA of the deceased were found on them. In his own mobile phone, there are a lot of clues about Li Qingping’s involvement in the case.
That night, he wore a wig, dressed in women’s clothes, carrying a woman’s schoolbag into the female dormitory building, because of his short stature, he was not seen through.
He had been hiding in the bathroom, strangled Yan Yan and took away his cell phone, then hid in a place we didn’t expect, and when everyone started class and poured out of the building, he quietly mingled among them and walked out of the dormitory.
Strictly speaking, the housekeeper is not innocent, because in the side door of the first floor of the building, there is a special compartment for sanitary products. She usually does not lock the door for convenience.
So, at three o’clock in the morning, a man appeared there silently, holding his breath, with a girl’s blood dripping on his hand.
To our surprise, the motive for the murder was love.
Li Dong confessed that he and Li Qingping were classmates in the same village. They fell in love in high school. Later, Li Qingping went to college. Li Dong did not go to college. He came to work in the city with her. Their academic qualifications and knowledge were not the same. In fact, they were getting farther and farther apart. But after meeting Yan Yan twice by chance, Li Dong has a good impression on Yan Yan, who has outstanding appearance and lively personality. Moreover, the other party is also a college student, which is also very attractive to Li Dong. Coupled with the long-term alienation, his girlfriend’s plain and ordinary appearance, Li Dong quickly produced a sense of boredom.
Before long, Li Dong, under the guise of a rich man, had a relationship with the sociable Yan Yan, and the two quickly became in full swing. Of course, Li Qingping, who concentrates on his studies, has been forgotten. Although the plot of this cheating is bloody, it will not form a deep hatred for the two young people who are about to become strangers and are destined to have different futures.
But Li Qingping, who has excellent academic performance, may have stronger self-esteem than ordinary people. In my guess, the silent girl must have hated Yan Yan deeply, even though the shrewd Yan Yan never mentioned this relationship in front of the dormitory people, and never brought Li Dong to school. The love of the
quick period is often short. Soon the beautiful Yan Yan found a new boyfriend, and Li Dong was quickly replaced. Ironically, at this time, Li Dong fully realized Li Qingping’s situation and feelings. Unlike him, the latter could only be silently resentful in his heart, and had to be in the same room with each other with a false smile on his face.
Even Li Qingping said last time that Yan Yan would teach her to make up intimately. I don’t think it’s a fabrication. Yan Yan at that time, perhaps there is a feeling of guilt in the heart, so three girls, only she is the best to Li Qingping.
But Li Qingping’s mood in the face of her is unknown.
One thing is not difficult to imagine, for Li Qingping, this must be a period of suffering. The self-esteem of a college girl with excellent academic performance will not allow Li Qingping and Yan Yan to tear their faces, but they have to endure the humiliation and helplessness of their hearts all the time.
Li Qingping may not care about her ex-boyfriend’s betrayal. For her, this boy may not be worthy of nostalgia. What
she cares more is that her things are taken away by other girls.
After all, she has always been the best in her studies. Only her appearance may be a deep scar. When
some things can not be bridged by hard work, hatred will become deeper and deeper.
On the other hand, for Li Dong, whose family is ordinary, this so-called love will not be easy. Li Dong, who
tried his best to meet Yan Yan’s needs, did not expect that he would be replaced so easily, and that his so-called love field would die early before he had time to reach its climax. According to Li Dong, things started to become unusual from a chance encounter on the street. He and Yan Yan met unexpectedly in the street
that day. Unlike himself, Yan Yan was happy with the arm of a tall and handsome man. Remembering what he had spent on Yan Yan, Li Dongqi came forward to argue, but was pushed by the opposite boy. Yan Yan not only did not express concern, but also sneered on the spot and did his best to tease her.
This became the last straw to crush Li Dong.
This kind of language on the injury, compared to the body on more people have the hatred of the teeth, Li Dong at that time moved what idea is unknown. But after he contacted his ex-girlfriend, he learned everything he wanted to know from her, which shocked me.
It is clear that Li Qingping, for some purpose, does not mind sharing this information with his cheating ex-boyfriend.
And this is the beginning of the tragedy.
Of course, Li Dong claimed that his ex-girlfriend was completely unaware of what happened later. Li Dong, who accidentally appeared in the bathroom mirror, was enough to scare Yan Yan out of her wits when she went to the toilet at midnight. If Li Dong hadn’t knocked her out on the spot, he would have been seized and sent to the Public Security Bureau that night.
I asked Li Dong about the motive for killing Yan Yan, and the result was disappointing.
According to Li Dong himself, he just wanted to teach Yan Yan a lesson, but she screamed to call the police. Li Dong was so frightened that he knocked her unconscious in his panic. Then he found a rope in the trash can and put it around her neck. It happened like this.
However, no one in the investigation reported hearing screams in the middle of the night, so the authenticity of Li Dong’s statement is unknown.
Yan Yan’s mobile phone has many photos of their love a year ago. The girl seems to have a hobby of collecting, saving all kinds of ex-boyfriends, even those lengthy chat records, which are inadvertently seen by Li Qingping. For Li Dong, the mobile phone was the most direct threat to him as a suspect, so he had to take it away. After all, even the students living in the same dormitory do not know who Yan Yan’s boyfriend is, which shows that her secrecy work is really amazing.
I expressed interest in the knife on the face of the deceased, and Li Dong’s reply was like this.
I had a love-hate relationship with her, and I wanted to disfigure her, but I couldn’t. People are already dead, and they can only draw a line shallowly. Besides, even if I wanted to be disfigured, there wouldn’t be enough time.
But Han Dongsheng and I don’t think so. In addition to the evidence in the mobile phone, wearing gloves, calmly cleaning up the scene, putting on the pajamas of the deceased and returning to the dormitory to take the mobile phone, even hiding in the cubicle on the first floor and fleeing in the crowd, these calm actions imbued with evil are not what a boy with low education and early social experience can think of.
One of the obvious doubts is that, according to the former dormitory manager who has been dismissed because of poor management, she did find Li Qingping studying hard in the cubicle alone after lights out late at night in order to continue his studies.
In other words, apart from the dormitory manager, there are very few people in the whole building who know that the cubicle is usually vacant. At the end of the
case, Han Dongsheng looked a little unhappy. I knew he was still a little upset, so I asked him to go to the rooftop to smoke a cigarette.
“I always thought that Hu Qian was the one with the problem. She has too many suspicious things, and I don’t have a good impression of her.” He took out a cigarette, but did not light it. He just looked into the distance with a wry smile. “I didn’t expect it to be the most unlikely one.”
This is work. Most of the time, the truth is always beyond your expectation. Therefore, do not just rely on subjective impressions to identify criminals, no matter how much like the other side of the murderer. Remember, it’s the evidence that counts. I patted him and said, “After all, sometimes you can see through the deepest fog in the world, but you can never see through the heart.” In the middle of the
break, the black and blue ligature marks on the neck were shocking. The three girls nodded in unison, saying that she went back to the dormitory at about eight o’clock in the evening. She had heard that she had gone to the library before. After the lights went out at about ten o’clock in the evening, everyone had a rest. As for what she asked.
Ask.
Views. There’s a chance. I thought to myself, almost. “As soon as I came back, I went straight to her bedside. Who else could it be?” Hu Chien said, “Besides, I wouldn’t recognize her in that nightgown.” By the way, I asked Li Qingping about the toilet. Do you have any impression. That is to say, this is the first time that the dormitory door was opened after the incident. You thought it couldn’t happen, so you decided that what Hu Qian said was a lie. But from another point of view, if someone did return to the dormitory, but not the victim, but Daxu’s phone call came at the right time, we are looking forward to it. The surveillance did not show that a boy had entered, which means that this person was not in the boy’s costume after the end of the inquiry. After the
children’s inquiry is over.
Unexpectedly, in front of all kinds of competitors, the ordinary boys in this family are quite stretched.
