The Headless and Dismembered Corpse Case (Part 3)
The Li couple did not lie. Li Hongcheng had indeed not contacted Tong Yanyan for a long time. On the 5th, Li Hongcheng was with a woman named Chunfang.
Poor Tong Yanyan is still angry with Li Hongcheng, but Li Hongcheng has already found other prey.
Even if the murder tools are found, the case remains at a standstill. There are no witnesses and the source of the woven bag and tape is still unknown.
Just at this time, the second case occurred.
Still in the septic tank, the body parts were placed in a woven bag and wrapped with tape. Because it was discovered early, the body parts were still fresh and the time of death was no more than 12 hours.
The body parts were discovered by a cleaner. She had read the report and called the police as soon as she found the package, so the package presented to the police was in its original state.
The package was packed neatly without a trace of mess, and the tape was wrapped in a "M" shape.
Shen Xingyan looked at the package and said, "The murderer must have obsessive-compulsive disorder. When wrapping the body, the tape was cut neatly."
Gu Fang took a look and found that the cut was indeed very neat. He nodded, "Not bad, there is no sign of the tape being pulled."
"Then can we conclude that the murderer dismembered the body in a place he was very familiar with?"
"Well, only when the environment is familiar can things be organized."
The murderer had gained experience, and this time he was much more skilled in dismembering the body than last time. There was only one fatal wound on the chest, and the cross-section of the bones was much neater, with only a few having bone spurs.
The owner of this corpse took good care of himself. His fingernails were carefully trimmed and painted with transparent nail polish, and even his toenails were painted cherry red. The deceased cleaned his armpit hair and sweat hair regularly and his skin was very delicate. She is also very strict in managing her body shape. She doesn't have a trace of fat on her body and is relatively thin compared to ordinary people.
The cause of death was the same as Tong Yanyan's. She died of hemorrhagic shock caused by a sharp weapon piercing her heart, which led to respiratory failure. She was knocked unconscious by a □□ before her death.
Last time, Lin Xiaofen identified the body, but I don’t know if she will be so lucky this time.
Gu Fang stayed in the forensic room while Shen Xingyan and An Xin were stitching up the body. Bao Wu sighed, "Two dismemberment cases happened within half a month. It has a very bad social impact, especially since the people who found the body parts were social personnel. Now the TV and newspapers are full of reports of dismemberment cases."
"But we just can't find any clues."
“Why did the murderer choose to dump the body in a septic tank?”
"I guess he probably didn't want people to find out. He probably took away the head and body parts for this purpose. If Lin Xiaofen didn't come to identify the body, it would take us a lot of time to find the source of the body."
Bao Wu agreed with this view. Seeing Shen Xingyan staring at the neck of the corpse in a daze, he asked, "Xiao Shen, what's wrong?"
"That mole on her neck looks familiar."
Gu Fang raised his eyebrows, "Have you seen her?"
"Let me think about it." Shen Xingyan closed his eyes and recalled where he had seen this mole. The mole was right in the middle of the front of his neck, very obvious.
The door of the forensic room was suddenly pushed open, and Qi Jiabao ran in, panting, "Captain Gu, someone is looking for you."
"Who is it? Tell him to wait."
"She said she was your classmate and had something urgent to do."
"My classmate?" Gu Fang wondered and walked out in confusion.
Qi Jiabao nodded to Bao Wu as a greeting, then followed Gu Fang away.
In the office of the Second Brigade, a fashionable woman was sitting with hot tea on the table. Jiang Shengyu was sitting opposite her. "Don't worry, Captain Gu will be here soon."
The other few had gossipy expressions on their faces. Over the years, they had never met Gu Fang's relatives or friends. They only knew that his family was in Beijing and his father was very rich. Gu Fang was very averse to others mentioning his father, and they knew nothing else. Suddenly someone came and claimed to be Gu Fang’s classmate. It’s no wonder they were curious.
The woman was very anxious and kept looking at her watch, "Is Gu Fang here?"
"Yes, I've called him. He'll be here soon. Don't worry. Are you really Captain Gu's classmate?"
"Yes, high school classmate." The woman waited patiently. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She stood up and took a few quick steps. "Gu Fang!"
When Gu Fang saw her, his eyebrows furrowed, "Su Mingya?"
The woman coughed a few times, "My name is Eve now."
Gu Fang simply skipped her name and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"I heard that you became the captain of the criminal police team. I haven't contacted you for a few days. I happened to be in Nanfu, so I came to see you."
"Oh, I'm very busy. We can only catch up at night." Gu Fang turned to leave, and Su Mingya hurriedly said, "I have something to talk to you about!"
Gu Fang gave an expression that said, "I knew it." "What's the matter?"
Su Mingya looked at the team members who were looking at them eagerly and whispered, "Can we change places?"
"If you have something to say, let's talk about it here." Gu Fang crossed his arms, a hint of impatience in his eyes.
Su Mingya bit her lower lip and said with determination: "You will keep it a secret, right?"
"What's the matter? If you don't tell me I'll leave. I'm busy."
"I'll tell you!" Su Mingya lowered her voice. "The artist I was managing disappeared. The disappearance of an artist is a big deal. I was afraid of causing a commotion. I didn't have any acquaintances in Nanfu, so I asked around for a long time before I found out that you were the captain of the criminal police team."
Gu Fang raised his right eyebrow. He didn’t understand what the difference was between the disappearance of an artist and that of an ordinary person. Why was their disappearance such a big deal?
"What's your artist's name? When did he disappear?"
"She..." Su Mingya hesitated, and feeling Gu Fang's impatient expression, she gritted her teeth and said, "Her name is Xueying. She was planning to hold a concert in Nanfu on March 26. She came here these days to promote it and rehearse. Who knew she would suddenly disappear." Su Mingya's face looked ugly. If the company knew about it, she would be in big trouble.
When he heard that it was Xueying, Qi Jiabao screamed. He was a fan of Xueying and was planning to go to the concert with his classmates. He was more anxious than Gu Fang, "When did Xueying disappear?"
Gu Fang glanced at him, Qi Jiabao shrank his neck and sat down obediently.
Gu Fang said: "Shengyu, take a statement from her."
"No!" Su Mingya grabbed Gu Fang's arm, "I only trust you. Please, I must be cautious when it comes to the artist's privacy."
Jiang Shengyu obediently handed the folder to Gu Fang and winked at him. Gu Fang took it reluctantly and said, "When did Xueying disappear?"
"After finishing the announcement at the TV station yesterday afternoon, she said she was tired and wanted to go back to the hotel to rest. I still had to plan the next process, so I asked the driver to take her back. I got home late at night, thinking that she would be very tired because she still had a day of announcements tomorrow, so I didn't go to her room.
At eight o'clock in the morning, I went to her room to look for her, but found that she was not in the room. The quilt was tidy, and it was obvious that she had not come back all night. I asked the driver, and he said that he had dropped Xueying off yesterday and watched her enter the hotel.
I called Xueying but couldn't get through, so I asked the front desk, and they said that she did enter the hotel yesterday afternoon, but they didn't notice whether she went out.
I waited until the afternoon, but I couldn't wait any longer, so I rushed to report the case. Please send someone to look for her quickly. I’m worried something has happened to her. ”
Gu Fang: "Maybe she left on her own because of something."
"Impossible, Xueying is very obedient and won't run around."
"If it's not more than 24 hours, according to regulations, there is no way to file a case."
"Can you be flexible? I really have no other options, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you. Just consider it as a favor to our classmates, and ask you to help me."
Gu Fang shook his head. "There is currently no evidence to prove that Xueying is missing. According to regulations, we cannot file a case."
Su Mingya was really anxious. She took out a stack of photos from her bag. They were all promotional photos of Xueying. She put the photos in front of Gu Fang and said, "Look, this is my artist. She is very beautiful and easy to recognize."
Gu Fang pushed her hand away angrily, but Su Mingya's hand loosened and the photos fell to the ground. A photo fell right at Gu Fang's feet. The girl in the photo was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with a bright smile and flying long hair.
Gu Fang bent down to pick it up. A hint of pride flashed across Su Mingya's eyes. She knew that no man would not be confused when seeing her artist's face.
Gu Fang said: "She is Xueying?"
Su Mingya nodded, and Gu Fang frowned. The photo in his hand was a frontal photo of Xueying, with a mole in the middle of her neck. "Wait for me." He left in a hurry with the photo. Su Mingya was confused, but the members of the second team looked extremely ugly.
Gu Fang walked to the forensic room and gave the photo to Shen Xingyan, "Is this the one you are talking about?"
Shen Xingyan's eyes widened when he saw Xueying's photo, "Yes, it's her! I've seen her on TV and was deeply impressed by the mole on her neck. But, could it be a coincidence?" After all, celebrities in later generations always have a big scene when they go out, and bodyguards are always by their side.
"We'll know after a DNA test. Bring your tools and come with me."
When Su Mingya heard that they had to go to the hotel to extract DNA, she immediately felt uneasy and said with a dark face, "You have to go. If you do this, the fans will definitely know that Xueying is in big trouble."
"This is our job, and you can figure out the rest yourself."
Su Mingya thought for a long time and said, "You guys should disguise yourself and pretend that it's for Xueying."
Gu Fang and Shen Xingyan looked at each other, and Shen Xingyan said, "Okay." If the dismembered body was indeed Xueying's, all major entertainment pages would definitely report it on a large scale, and the police would be under even greater pressure.
Gu Fang also thought of it and agreed to Su Mingya's proposal.
So Gu Fang and Shen Xingyan changed into Xueying team's clothes and followed Su Mingya into the hotel. Shen Xingyan extracted DNA from the toothbrush used by Xueying and searched the room with Gu Fang. There were no signs that the items in the room had been turned over, and only Xueying and Su Mingya's fingerprints were found.
The police questioned the driver again, and the driver said that he left after sending Xueying back. He watched Xueying enter the hotel but did not follow her up.
The surveillance cameras in the hotel also showed that Xueying entered the hotel at 4:10 p.m. on the 19th. She was also seen in the elevator surveillance camera, but the subsequent surveillance cameras did not see her leaving. It was as if she had disappeared out of thin air.
After comparing the DNA, it was confirmed that the body parts belonged to Xueying.
The moment she heard the news, Su Mingya fainted. She didn't expect that the artist she had worked so hard to train would be killed in such a cruel way.
Su Mingya cried even more miserably than Lin Xiaofen, "Who the hell did this? How am I going to explain this to the company? Xueying, why are you so miserable? You just became famous, and you still have a long way to go! My Xueying!"
Gu Fang interrupted her crying impatiently, "Does Xueying know anyone in Nanfu?"
Su Mingya shook her head, "It's her first time in Nanfu."
"Are you sure?"
Su Mingya hesitated, "Her parents are both dead, she is an orphan, she was discovered by the company in a singing competition in 1995, and she debuted after being packaged. I don't know her past experience, and the company doesn't allow me to mention it."
"It's not like she has a younger brother."
"That was fabricated by the company for packaging purposes, in order to win the sympathy of fans and add points to Xueying's personality."
Qi Jiabao paused as he stared at Su Mingya in surprise. He had never expected that the singer he was chasing after was actually a packaged one.
