Chapter 609 Victim
As long as you are careful enough, the scene can always tell you the answers to many questions.
However, obviously, the scene did not give him the answers to any questions.
Despite this, Mr. Meng did not think the scene was useless in this case.
He just felt that the murderer was hiding too deeply and he hadn't discovered him for a while.
……
The first body was found in the western suburbs.
He is also the second son of the old man who provided the warehouse to the police as a temporary investigation location.
……
The old man, who had once been strong, had lost his son, and his back had suddenly become a little hunched.
His wife even fell seriously ill.
Fortunately, the old man had an older daughter and a younger son to comfort him, otherwise the two old people would have collapsed the moment they heard the news.
……
They were just the first family to be harmed.
But it’s not the last one.
……
"right here."
"It was here that Li Guofu was discovered by vegetable farmers who were heading into the city in the morning."
Father Meng stopped and looked around.
In just a few days, he had come here countless times, hoping to find some clues, but always returned disappointed.
……
This is just an ordinary road.
It is a highway from the western suburbs to the city.
There are wild grass and bushes on both sides.
Looking into the distance, you can see vast fields.
……
Li Guofu was delayed in returning home that day because of something else.
He also called home beforehand and told them that they didn't need to hold the door open for him if he came back late.
Because similar situations have happened before.
So the Li family members didn't care and just went to sleep.
It was not until the next day that we discovered that Li Guofu had not returned home all night.
……
Father Meng pulled out a stack of documents from the file bag he had just returned to retrieve. "This is a photo of Li Guofu's body."
……
Although it was not the first time he saw it, Meng Jixi still frowned with some discomfort.
I cursed the murderer in my heart as a pervert.
……
Xiao Xiao took it and looked at it carefully.
……
The bodies in the photos are horrific.
The limbs were placed on the ground in an unnatural posture.
"His hands and feet?"
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but ask.
"It's all broken."
"Not only his hands and feet, but all the bones in his body were shattered into powder."
Even though he has been a police officer for most of his life, he has rarely seen such cruel methods.
The victim's hands and feet were not broken, but shattered!
What was broken were not only the victim's limbs, but also all the bones in his body except his head.
The intact head and the limp, broken body made people feel inexplicably cold.
The murderer was horribly cruel.
……
"How did it break?"
Breaking a person's entire skeleton is not an easy task.
What’s more, it is in a limited and short time.
The murderer went to such great lengths to torture the victim, and it seemed that he had a great grudge in his heart.
"It was initially determined that it was crushed with great force."
Speaking of this, Father Meng frowned and looked gloomy. "It looks like he was entangled by a giant animal like a python and his bones were crushed to death."
"But, python? How is that possible?"
This is suburbia, yes, but not the wilderness.
Where do the large wild animals come from?
Father Meng shook his head. "But if it was done by human power, how strong was the murderer?" "Could the murderer be a boxer or a martial artist?"
……
"Or what method did he use to make the victim unable to resist and allow him to do what he wanted?"
"Look at his face. His expression is very horrified. It seems that he has seen something incredible."
However, this doesn’t really explain anything.
After all, anyone who was suddenly attacked on the way home would not look very happy, right?
……
The corpse's face was half destroyed.
It's full of potholes and very scary.
……
"Is this... sulfuric acid?"
Xiao Xiao guessed that the first thing that could corrode the face like this was the most well-known sulfuric acid.
Half of it is intact. The other half is like a nightmare face.
Therefore, the police can infer the victim's emotions at the time of death from the intact half of the victim's face.
Fear, pain, despair, as well as doubt and confusion.
It seemed that he didn't understand how the road he had walked countless times had become the place where he died?
……
Moreover, even though his face was completely destroyed, the victim's eyes were bloodshot and did not close even in death, telling everyone that he died with his eyes open.
Extremely shocking.
……
"No."
Father Meng denied Xiao Xiao's guess, "We are still studying what it is specifically."
"But what is certain is that the toxicity is extremely strong."
“It’s also very corrosive.”
This can be seen from the half-destroyed face of the victim and the large and small holes on his limp body.
……
Xiao Xiao looked at the photos one by one.
There are full-body photos as well as detailed photos.
The victims died in horrific ways.
If a person with an average character saw this, he would definitely have nightmares for several nights in a row.
……
"These are pictures of the other victims."
Noticing that Xiao Xiao had finished flipping through the information in his hand, Father Meng handed another stack of information to Xiao Xiao and spoke in a very low voice.
When the first victim appeared, the case attracted the police's high attention.
After all, even many police officers could not bear the appearance of the deceased.
This shows the cruelty of the murderer.
How could such a murderer not attract the police's attention and investigation?
……
When the second victim appeared, the police were a little confused.
The murderer was even more perverted than they originally thought.
They originally thought that the murderer tortured the victim in such a way because he had a grudge against the victim.
So, if it is for revenge, it is not so incomprehensible to use cruel means.
……
However, no matter how much the police investigated, they could not find any relationship between the second victim and the first victim. They didn't even have any connection at all.
Two completely unrelated people became the targets of the same murderer.
why?
The case changed from a revenge murder as suspected by the police to a serial murder case of unknown cause.
The murderer's danger level increases sharply.
……
However, no matter how much the police paid attention to the case and even set up a special investigation team for it, the leaders above also made it easy for the investigation of the case. After all, the nature of this case was too bad.
The number of victims is still increasing day by day.
All the people involved in the case investigation hadn't had a good rest for several days. The whites of their eyes were full of red bloodshot, and their dark eyes were filled with obscure emotions.
So far in investigating the case, they have not found any glimmer of hope.
How could this not make them depressed, or even... hopeless.
……
"All the victims died in the same way."
As the leader of this case, Mr. Meng could not show it even if he was unsure.
He knew clearly that they were racing against time and every minute and every second was precious.
They can't fall down.
Because they all know that there will be a new victim the next day.
