Chapter 49: Interlude (II)

Hearing a loud shout from the county order, the servant quickly turned around, bowed down and replied: "I want to teach this son to know that the incision of the corpse is smooth, and it must have been cut by the quick knife." Indeed, as Childe said, the deceased was already dead before he was chopped up, and the fatal wound was killed by a sharp knife along the neck, and only after death did he teach people to cut the body into pieces. In addition, the three deceased were two men and one woman, and in addition to being chopped up, the two men had multiple cone-shaped wounds on their bodies. There were many tooth marks on the woman's body, and there were also cone-shaped wounds on her lower body, and the flesh and blood of the thorns were blurred, which was already unrecognizable. As for the affairs of the three deceased before their deaths, it was not a small duty, but Zhao Zhutou led people to investigate. By the way, Fang Xiaoxiao gave the deceased an autopsy and found that the deceased had chilblains, but it was unbelievable, although it is not yet the summer solstice, but the weather is already hot, and it should not regenerate chilblains. ”

Xia Hongsheng was stunned when he heard this, chilblains? It shows that the deceased spent time in the ice room before his death! So Xia Hongsheng turned his head and immediately asked the county commander: "Lord county commander, how many ice cellars are there in Luhun County?" Has there been a disappearance before? ”

"This ice cellar...... If it is not a small family, those gentry have ice cellars in their homes, but there are only two of them. The county magistrate scratched his head and replied.

Xia Hongsheng bowed and said, "My lord, please temporarily detain all the people who manage the ice cellar in these two families, and inspect the people who are related to them. The tired adults asked Zhao Zhutou to come and ask, and he could give the adults a way to solve the case. ”

The county order raised his chin towards the county order, and the county order turned around and ran out and shouted Zhao Zhutou to come in, after coming in, Zhao Zhutou greeted the county order, and listened to the county order: "Zhao Zhutou, since the case happened, you have been responsible for checking the identity of the deceased before his death, do you have eyebrows?" This Xia Gongzi asks you questions, and you must answer them truthfully. ”

"Yes!" Zhao Zhutou clasped his fist at Xia Hongsheng and saluted: "This son, may I ask." ”

"Thank you, Zhao Zhutou!" Xia Hongsheng returned the salute and asked, "I want to ask, what does the three deceased have to do with each other before they were alive?" But what are the similarities? For example, body shape, hairstyle, way of speaking, behavior, and even facial expressions...... Are there any hints of similarity? ”

"This ...... I really don't know this little one! The little ones don't know them...... As for the relationship between these three people, because the body was cut off and the head was cut off, it has not been found, so the identity of the deceased has not been determined, and it is still unclear. That Zhao Zhutou said with some trepidation, and as he spoke, he secretly glanced at the county order.

Sure enough, I saw that the county order suddenly raised his eyebrows, his eyes were big and round, and he was about to kick Zhao Zhu's head with a kick: "Bastard!" Someone kicked you to death, a lazy! Human life is at stake, and you haven't been able to find out the identity of the deceased after three days! This official doesn't want to see you as a head catcher! ”

"Your Excellency! The deceased had no head, and his body was cut to pieces, so it was indeed difficult to determine his identity, and the top priority was to find the heads as soon as possible. Xia Hongsheng hurriedly persuaded.

"Hmph, looking at the face of Xia Gongzi's intercession for you today, this official will spare you once, don't go and verify it quickly!" The county commander shouted angrily at Zhao Zhutou.

Xia Hongsheng has no choice, after all, it is not a later generation, there is no such advanced technology, and now he can only rely on his face to recognize people, and there will be no photos before his death to compare, and it is difficult to find out the connection between several deceased.

"My lord, the villain you are looking for is a man in the prime of life, with great strength, and he may be in charge of the ice cellars in those two large households, or at least have something to do with the person who manages the ice cellars, and your lord can send someone to search the two ice cellars, and may be able to find clues about the deceased inside. In addition, the most important point is that although the man is young and strong, he does not have sexual intercourse, and his wife may have fornicated with others. Adults can start from this aspect to identify the suspect. It follows by inference that the first two deceased, a man and a woman, may have been his wife and the person who had fornication, and the latter deceased must have been similar in appearance, clothing, or demeanor to the former man, or he was also an adulterer. When this man found out that his wife was having an affair with someone else, and remembered that he had not done anything about it, he became angry, hacked them to death, and vented his anger with a knife. Since then, he has a bitter hatred for fornicators, and it is his duty to get rid of the fornicating men and women, and if they are not caught as soon as possible, I am afraid that some people will die because of this. ”

"Huh! How did Xia Gongzi know so clearly? You even know that thing doesn't work?! The county commander's mouth looked at Xia Hongsheng in shock, but he didn't seem to be talking nonsense, so he sighed in surprise.

"My lord, please pay more attention to the catchers outside, that gangster must be nearby, and it is likely to be mixed with this group of people outside. Adults can search them first, and then strictly guard the sight of no one to go out and catch them. On the other hand, if you go to inspect what you said below, you will definitely be able to make some gains. Xia Hongsheng said to the order.

The county commander nodded, turned around and left the room, went to arrange the arrangements, and waited for the county magistrate to wait for the three of them to go out, Xia Hongsheng suddenly weakened his legs, and sat on the chair next to him.

Yan Shigu raised his hand and lifted the kettle next to him and poured a glass of water, and put it in front of Xia Hongsheng.

"Thank you, Master Yan!" Xia Hongsheng wiped the sweat on his forehead, picked up the tea and drank it all.

I heard Yan Shigu ask: "Jingshi, the old man has also been a magistrate, and he has dealt with a lot of things in this place, but he has never seen you like this, without looking at the scene, without looking for clues, just extrapolating out of thin air, you can tell the gangster in such detail, even ...... I know it. Not to mention whether your conjecture is correct or not, the old man and others don't have any clue, how did you know so much about it? Just ask those few words? ”

Xia Hongsheng scratched his head, how to say this, tell them what is called profiling? I'm just a little bit of a carving worm, and those profilers who really study criminal psychology are really amazing! Xia Hongsheng thought for a while and said: "Back to Master Yan, there is a science in this world, which is dedicated to studying different ideas in different people's hearts, people with different personalities have different psychology, and different psychology guides them to make different behaviors. These are all traceable. To give the simplest and most common example, when Zhao Zhutou spoke just now, his eyes wandered, he didn't dare to look directly at the county order, and he kept scratching his head and touching his nose with his hands, which is the expression of a weak heart. It shows that Zhao Zhutou did not complete the explanation of the county order well, so he was panicked and nervous in his heart, and this kind of psychological expression was manifested in people's physical behavior, that is, he did not dare to look directly at the other party when he spoke, and his hands moved wildly and there was nowhere to place it unnaturally. The student deduces the psychology of the gangster through the attitude of the gangster towards the corpse, and then deduces what he will do from this psychology, so that he can have a general understanding of the gangster. ”

"I see, there is such a knowledge in the world, but the old man is lonely." Yan Shigu nodded, stroked his beard and said.

"This ...... Master Yan, this is also taught by the master that the student met in Laojun Mountain, and he only knew some of it, and it was probably lost a long time ago. Xia Hongsheng was a little embarrassed and scratched his head involuntarily.

"Jingshi, you're also flustered right now, aren't you?" But seeing Yan Shigu, he looked at Xia Hongsheng with a smile and asked. Xia Hongsheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at his hand that was scratching his head, and immediately grinned.

"You can see it." Xia Hongsheng gave a salute to Yan Shigu.

When Xia Hongsheng and the others came out of the room, the corpses outside had been taken away, the blood stains were still there, the county order was lecturing below, the sky was already bright, Xia Hongsheng stood on it and could observe everyone carefully. First of all, the old and weak women and children inside were excluded, and half of the people were thrown away at this time. Among the remaining men, those who were thin and weak, and the soles of their feet were also thrown away, and there were still about a dozen people left. These dozen or so people are all calm now, listening to the county order's questioning expressionlessly, and none of them have a different complexion.

Xia Hongsheng thought about it, suddenly his heart moved, his brows furrowed, and he immediately walked down quickly, went to the county order, interrupted the county order, and leaned over to whisper a few words to the county order. The county commander nodded, and ordered the arrest to disperse those people quickly, and then Xia Hongsheng walked over, walked to the first man first, looked up and down, and then leaned into the man's ear and quietly didn't know what to say. Seeing that person frowned, he turned his head to look at Xia Hongsheng with disdain. Xia Hongsheng took in his reaction, then leaned over again, and whispered to that person again, but this time, he saw that the person's face suddenly showed obvious anger, and he turned red, looking like he wanted to go up and beat Xia Hongsheng, but in the end, he was hindered by the arrest and the county order, so he endured it, but he didn't want to look at Xia Hongsheng anymore.

Xia Hongsheng's face did not change, and he walked up to the second man to look up and down, and then he also came up and said a word, the man laughed and glanced at Xia Hongsheng with disdain. Xia Hongsheng leaned over and said a word again, but that person suddenly reacted exactly the same as the person just now.

Xia Hongsheng concocted the same method, and asked several people in a row, and their expressions were similar after hearing the two sentences.

When it came to the next person, Xia Hongsheng came close and whispered to him, and suddenly, he saw that the person's face suddenly turned red, and he waited viciously for Xia Hongsheng to come: "Nonsense!" Nonsense! ”

Xia Hongsheng took a few steps back, shrugged his shoulders, and then leaned closer, whispered again, and suddenly, he saw that person's eyes suddenly widened, and suddenly he grabbed Xia Hongsheng's neck!

At this time, the catcher next to him finally understood the clue, and immediately hula surrounded him, and the water and fire sticks in his hands immediately pointed at that person. The man pulled suddenly, Xia Hongsheng couldn't break free, and he grabbed him and strangled his neck tightly.

"Get out of here! Or I'll kill him! The man roared, strangled Xia Hongsheng's neck with one arm, and pointed to the surrounding catchers with the other: "Let me go!" Or he'll die! ”

Although Xia Hongsheng was strangled at this time, there was a trace of excitement in his heart at this time, his own strategy was really useful, so that this gangster tore off his disguise and exposed it! This is the first practice after I became obsessed with criminal psychology, and it was a success! How not to get excited?!
