Chapter 179: The Butcher's Traces Were Found, and the Trampled Grass

After being unable to get a breakthrough from Qiangwei.

The most correct choice is undoubtedly to explore other breakthroughs to obtain key clues.

now.

The task force has once again been divided into two groups. A team headed by Lin Tian went to Taicang City to try to dig out valuable clues from the explosive sister.

Su Ming, on the other hand, joined Liu Yang, Bai Yu and others to help find the absconding butcher.

Although everyone is very tired after running on the road all day, there is no time to rest now.

stay up.

It has become the norm for criminal police officers. Sometimes, it is extremely normal to stay up for several nights just to guard a certain criminal.

Moreover, they who are on the front line of criminal investigation are all very aware of facing such a vicious drug trafficking organization.

You must seize every minute and every second. As long as you are as fast as possible, you may be able to save a few more people and get key clues like you saved the bomb sister.

Then we will naturally be one step closer to completely uncovering this drug trafficking organization.

...

Because Liangxi City is relatively close to Suzhou City.

So Su Ming, Guo Ping and Xu Changsheng naturally came to Xishan Orchard first and met Liu Yang and others who were searching the mountain for the butcher.

It's already three o'clock in the morning.

With no pedestrians or residents and only the sounds of various insects, Xishan looks increasingly dark and scary.

The bright moon that was originally hanging high in the sky was also covered with a thin veil by dark clouds, completely depriving it of the little light on the road.

Such a dark environment is undoubtedly very suitable for the butcher to hide. Even if he hides randomly in some bushes, it is difficult for people to detect him, making the overall search extremely difficult.

Even though there are now close to a hundred criminal police or special police officers, holding bright flashlights in their hands and following with several police dogs, basically surrounding the entire Xishan Mountain in search, they still haven't gained much.

Not even a single clue that the butcher might have left behind was found, making the arrest obviously more and more difficult.

Because from a hunting perspective.

The first few hours of a search are definitely the easiest time to discover clues and even directly arrest criminals.

If nothing is harvested within this period of time, it will inevitably increase the difficulty of arrest several times, and it is more likely that the butcher will continue to abscond, but this is never allowed.

Members of a drug trafficking organization came to Gusu City from Lianjiang City, and before the arrest and control of Xiangcheng Criminal Investigation Brigade, they executed the poison in a wooden house halfway up the mountain.

For committing such an arrogant act, if he cannot be apprehended in the end.

This undoubtedly rubs the face of the Gusu police, and even the entire Longguo police, on the ground hundreds of times.

Therefore, in addition to Liu Yang, the director of the Gusu City Public Security Bureau also issued a death order.

Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground in Xishan, we must dig out the butcher and never let him continue to be at large.

...

now.

Inside a worker's wooden house halfway up the mountain.

Su Ming and others, who came as quickly as possible, were checking the crime scene where Poison was executed.

As for Guo Ping, after receiving instructions from Su Ming, he began to rely on his own investigative experience to look for relevant clues.

And no trace of the butcher was found for several hours.

At the request of his immediate leadership, Liu Yang, who was originally under great pressure, apparently relaxed a lot from his tension and worry after seeing Su Ming come back to help capture the butcher.

Liu Yangke, who is good at officialdom, knows very well that no matter what the final result is, all he needs to do now is fully cooperate with Su Ming.

If something strange happens from above, Lin Tian will definitely be the human shield to carry it.

After the pressure was relieved a lot, Liu Yang looked at Su Ming, who was conducting an autopsy on Poison's body, and asked slowly.

"Team Leader Su."

"Did you discover any important clues or details?"

Su Ming, who had roughly finished the autopsy, took off the rubber gloves he was wearing, sorted out the thoughts in his mind, and spoke expressionlessly.

"First of all, based on the cutting surface of the wound, it can be judged that the murder weapon used by the butcher is not particularly sharp, or... it should be that the tip of the knife is sharper, and there is probably some rust left on the blade?"

"Because the cut surface of the wound has an obviously uneven and grainy texture, and I also saw a few rust spots that fell off and were embedded in the muscles of the wound."

"Then based on the degree of closure of Poison's chest wound, the butcher did not choose to wait for Poison to die after piercing his chest with the murder weapon."

"Instead, the murder weapon was pulled out in a very short period of time, which caused massive heart bleeding to speed up the poison's death."

"When you pull out the murderous weapon that pierced the heart, due to the blood pressure of the human body, a large part of the blood that splashes out will splash onto the butcher."

"The clothes worn by normal people have a certain ability to absorb water. Even if blood splashes on the body, it will be absorbed cleanly, and of course it will be particularly conspicuous."

"But when the butcher came to execute the poison, the outermost layer didn't seem to be normal clothes, and it didn't have much water-absorbing ability."

Speaking of which.

Su Ming pointed to the blood stains dripping into a semicircle on the ground and continued to talk.

"From this semicircular blood mark, we can tell that the butcher was wearing waterproof clothing similar to a raincoat. Such marks were formed due to blood dripping from the hem."

"Through the rusty murder weapon and the semicircular bloodstain, it is 100% certain that the member of the organization who came to execute the poison is the butcher who has killed more than ten people. This should be beyond doubt."

"Because in the files of the Baiyin serial murder case, the main cause of death of most of the victims was bleeding due to puncture or cutting of the artery or heart."

"This shows that the reason why this member of the organization was code-named the butcher is probably because of his extremely perverted killing method."

"Just like slaughtering livestock, you must bleed them first. Butchers like to watch the victims die of excessive blood loss and see them die with their own eyes. The pupils of the prey are dilated. "

"And in so many cases of the same series in Lianjiang City, several similarities can be seen in each case. "

"First, no murder weapon can be found. Even if the crime scene is turned upside down, not even one murder weapon is found. "

"Second, the murderer did not leave any DNA or fingerprints, and the deceased showed no signs of resistance, which shows that the butcher's killing and anti-detection methods are outstanding. "

"Third, at every murder scene, there will basically be this semicircular bloodstain similar to the hem of a raincoat. "

"Through these three points, it can actually be roughly judged that the butcher will take away the murder weapon he used every time he killed someone. Or reuse? But it is impossible to throw it somewhere, so there is no need to search for discarded murder weapons nearby. "

"And he wore a raincoat to block the splattered blood, which means that the clothes he wore inside were probably not stained with much blood. "

"It can be said that the butcher is completely capable of doing it..."

"Half an hour ago, he was wearing a raincoat and holding a murder weapon, watching his chosen prey being bled to death, and half an hour later, he was able to walk down the pedestrian street in a suit, holding the murder weapon and a bloody raincoat as if nothing had happened."

"So as long as the butcher is willing, he will take off his raincoat, wipe the blood off his face, find a backpack and carry the murder weapon Would it be better to hide the weapon and raincoat and go down the mountain as if nothing happened than to hide somewhere on the mountain? "

"And it is precisely because the environment of Xishan is suitable for hiding and evading that I dare to boldly guess that the butcher is most likely not hiding in Xishan at present."

"According to the role positioning in criminal investigation, we are doing our best to investigate, while the butcher is doing his best to counter-investigate."

"He is experienced and good at counter-investigation. He will not let himself hide in Xishan, which is hungry and cold and which we police think is the most likely to hide."

"So we should search directly down the mountain and search the city, instead of searching up to the depths of the mountains and forests."

The voice fell.

The mobile phone in Su Ming's pocket rang a rather urgent ring.

After taking out the phone and looking at the caller ID, Su Ming pressed the answer button and turned on the speaker.

The next second.

Guo Ping's rather low voice sounded throughout the wooden house.

"Deputy Team Leader Su."

"According to the route you told me earlier, I found traces of the butcher hiding for a short time in the grass at the foot of the mountain..."
