"Li Xiangyun is the focus of the investigation?"
Guan Hongyu left a surprised message:
“Brother, what you mean is that the murderer’s core target is Li Xiangyun.
And Geng Qingqing was killed simply because she was with Li Xiangyun?"
“That’s right!”
Guan Hongfeng left a message: "Based on our current investigation results, Li Xiangyun's personal experience and social relationships are much more complicated than Geng Qingqing's.
In comparison, Geng Qingqing looks more like a simple little girl.
Li Xiangyun is more likely the target of the criminal.
Of course, this is not just my personal speculation, there is evidence to support it.”
Captain Guan uploaded several photos in the crime-solving group.
These were all taken by police officers in 2018 when Li Xiangyun's body was found in the mountains.
There are photos of a female corpse buried in a pit.
There are also photos of the separate pit after the female body was dug out.
Guan Hongfeng: "If nothing else, the difference between the places where Geng Qingqing and Li Xiangyun dumped their bodies is obvious.
Geng Qingqing's body was put into a common sack and thrown into the cave at random.
If you look closely at the pit where Li Xiangyun was buried, you will find that it is actually very exquisite.
The overall shape is a cuboid!
Although the corners are not standard straight lines or 90 degrees, it can be seen that the person who dug the hole obviously put a lot of thought and effort into it.
Instead of digging a hole and throwing the body into the hole as usual, they just did it and left it at that.
It's more like they deliberately dug a hole to bury Li Xiangyun."
Forensic doctor Qin Ming: "This is indeed suspicious.
I have come into contact with many buried bodies, and the graves dug by the murderer are indeed not so particular.
Because digging a hole is not easy.
Especially in mountains and forests, tree roots, sand and stones are obstacles to excavation.
Usually they dig a hole of similar size, throw the person into the hole, and fill it with soil.
Therefore, when the body is discovered, it is usually curled up and the clothes are definitely very messy.
Looking at the photos of Li Xiangyun being excavated, she was lying flat in the pit.
The clothes were relatively smooth, obviously having been carefully tidied.
This earth pit is actually not like the common corpse dumping pit, which is simply used to bury corpses and conceal them from the public.
Instead, it looks more like a grave, as if it were used to bury a body, to prevent it from being left exposed in the wilderness and becoming a wandering ghost."
Kiko: “In addition to the clothes worn by Li Xiangyun, she was also covered with a red single-layer coat.
Although the garment had been buried and decayed for many years when the pit was discovered, the appraiser did not find any wear and tear or stains on the collar, cuffs, and other parts of the garment due to wear.
Therefore, I suspect that this red coat is brand new."
Guan Hongyu: “The position of the coat cover is also very interesting.
It covered Li Xiangyun's face.
I read the case records from 2018. When the clothes were pulled open to reveal the rotten and broken skull, many police officers were shocked.
Is this considered a 'guilty act'?"
Tang Ren: "What are you talking about~~
I've already killed someone, why are you still talking about guilt~~"
Tang Tan Qin Feng: "Xiao Tang, what they are talking about is a kind of criminal behavior in behavioral psychology analysis.
Not all criminals are brutal and cruel.
They will exhibit different behaviors such as intimidation, venting, and reinforcement.
These behaviors can reflect different psychological characteristics of criminals and may indicate the direction of investigation.
Guilty behavior is one of them.
This manifests itself in the fact that although the criminal has killed someone, he still shows a certain respect for the deceased.
For example, helping the deceased to tidy up his clothes, put on makeup, shave his beard, etc. are all acts of guilt.
In this case, the grave was dug, the body was laid flat in the pit, the clothes were arranged, and the face was covered with a coat.
All of these can be classified as guilty behavior.
The key is!
In a typical homicide case, there are only one or two acts of guilt at most.
But the murderer who killed Li Xiangyun actually committed at least four acts of guilt.
This is obviously not normal!"
Hannibal: “Behavioral psychology!
Guilty behavior usually occurs for two reasons:
First, the criminal feels that he has indeed done something wrong and regrets his criminal behavior.
Furthermore, the criminals and the victims have a close relationship.
It could be a relative, lover, good friend, etc.
With so many guilty acts in this case, the criminal may have both reasons.
He had a close relationship with the victim and deeply regretted his murder.”
Maori Kogoro: "That is to say, this case was committed by an acquaintance.
The murderer at least knew Li Xiangyun and had a close relationship with him?
Li Xiangyun's situation is special. Her parents died, and she sold her child because of pregnancy. She has almost no close friends.
Could the criminal be her male partner?
I remember that Li Xiangyun had a rather chaotic lifestyle.
The men around me change frequently.
And she seemed to be dating multiple men at the same time.
In this case, is it hatred born out of love, murder out of love?"
“It’s possible!”
Conan added: "The criminal has another behavior that is quite special.
The police investigated the grave and collected a lot of victims' lost hair.
After comparison, it was found that a part of the hair on the right forehead was relatively short, which looked very inconsistent.
The fracture is shear-like, probably because it was cut off by someone.
The criminal must have cut off this tuft of hair!
The key is!
There was no scratch on the forehead bone near the hair, and the other hair was not damaged.
Therefore, the murderer must have deliberately cut off this tuft of hair and kept it.
In criminal psychology, this is a form of 'trophy retention' or 'symbolic marking behaviour'.
