Hai Rui and Tang Jingting hurriedly asked what was wrong with the wound, in their eyes, it was a big bloody hole in the back of the corpse's head, no different from the three dead in front of them.

Qin Lin didn't answer directly, and asked rhetorically: "You all think that the three victims of Gu Kedu and the Three Bridges mystery case died at the hands of the same murderer?" ”

Hai Rui's white eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters, after all, he had many years of experience in solving cases, and carefully tasted the meaning of Qin Lin's words, thoughtfully.

Tang Jingting couldn't hold back his surname, and flicked the sleeves of his robe: "What did Brother Qin say, he just asked knowingly!" Gu Kedu and the three deceased in front of him all died on the bridge, and they all died from a blow to the back of the head, is this not clear? ”

Qin Lin shook his head, picked up the blood and brain-soaked hair on the back of the corpse's head, and pointed to the bloody hole the size of a child's fist, "Please Tang Fuzun take a closer look, this wound is really different from the wounds of the victims of the previous three murders." ”

What's the difference? Tang Jingting barely glanced at it, hissed in his mouth, and hurriedly looked away, his face showed a look of shame - the red blood mixed with the gray-white brain matter, showing a strange pink, the smell of blood came to his nose, and the miserable scene scared him into a cold sweat on his back.

It was Lu Yuanzhi who was the first to shout: "Hey, there are a lot of broken bones in this wound, and the shape is uneven, Brother Qin, let me see." ”

Qin Lin stood up, Niu vigorously handed over a piece of fragrant pancreas, he walked under the bridge, and washed away the blood on his hands with the clear river water.

The fat man checked carefully, and soon came to a conclusion, and exclaimed in surprise: "Brother Qin, there is really a problem!" The corpse's head had been smashed by an angular, irregularly shaped murder weapon, and a lot of bone stubble had broken out of the wounds......"

Ahem, Hai Rui coughed dryly, Tang Jingting hurriedly looked at it with the teacher, isn't it, the hole in the back of Gu Kedu's head that was smashed was uneven at the edges, turning over the white miserable bone stubble, which was different from the round smashing injuries on the back of the heads of the victims in the previous three cases.

Hai Rui thought about it for a while, and also squatted down like Qin Lin did just now, although the posture was indecent, and he didn't have the official authority of the Qingtian Great Master, but when he got closer, he could see it more clearly, observed the wound and asked, "What kind of murder weapon is this, the eight-sided hammer?" Steel brazing? ”

"I think the murder weapon may have been found," Qin Lin, who was washing his hands under the bridge, suddenly said.

Did you just throw it under the bridge? Everyone held on to the railing of the stone arch bridge and leaned out half of their bodies to look down, but Qin Lin stood by the river, and the muddy ground of the river beach without grass under his feet was clear at a glance, and there was no murder weapon.

Qin Lin pointed to the river under the bridge and said with a smile: "Look, there are a lot of fish there, I think there must be something that attracts them." The sun is very strong, and you are fascinated by the shadow of the bridge and the flooding of the river, and you can see it clearly when you come to me. ”

Hai Rui didn't care about his old arms and legs, so he pulled his feet and went down the bridge, Tang Jingting had no choice but to follow him.

The crowd descended to the riverbank, and from this angle there was no shadow or floodlight, and under the bridge there was indeed a group of small fish slightly larger than their fingers gathered together, lingering and refusing to leave.

Hai Rui is a native of Qiongzhou, and immediately exclaimed: "Hey, this is the horsemouth fish in Qiongzhou, the most bloody, you can catch a lot of chicken and duck blood—ah, it turns out that the murder weapon is underwater!" ”

Hearing this, Tang Jingting, Gu Huiming and the others' faces changed a little, like Qin Lin's ability to see subtle observations, solving the case is really twice the result with half the effort......

The river was not deep, and Niu Dali jumped down with gloves on, and soon found a stone from the bottom of the river, about the size of an adult's fist, with edges and corners, and a very rough surface with a faint color of blood.

Lu Yuanzhi took the stone and compared it with the hole in the back of the corpse's head, and the bloody sharp corners of the stone matched the shape of the wound completely.

"Brother Qin, take fingerprints!" Lu Yuanzhi held the stone and proudly showed off to the officials: "Our Chief Qin's eyes are like lightning when he judges the yin and yang, but anything that has been touched by someone can get a handprint, find out who has touched this thing, and find out the real murderer!" So we all have to wear gloves so that we don't leave our own handprints. ”

In the murder case of the Forbidden City Quliu Pavilion, the lacquerware boat that was decided to be surnamed evidence was wet with water, and Qin Lin still obtained fingerprints by fumigation, so the fat man did not doubt his ability at all.

Are you sure? Tang Jingting's mouth opened wide in surprise, and Gu Huiming stretched out his hand to get the stone, dragging and crying: "Who, who killed my brother?" Chief Qin, please let the handprints appear......"

Lu Yuanzhi didn't give it to him, and retracted his hand back: "Hey, don't touch it, this is evidence, if you touch it, you can't tell it." ”

"Fatty, you think too highly of me!" Qin Lin sighed, the surface of this stone is too rough, and it has been blistered, so it is easy to get fingerprints, otherwise it should be easier to find the real culprit by comparing fingerprints.

Sand and running water are the mortal enemies of forensics, and too rough planes are similar to sand......

However, finding the murder weapon also has a role in determining the surname of the case, and even the final investigation, and any criminal investigation case will focus on finding the murder weapon, and Gu Kedu's death will not be an exception.

Qin Lin cheered up and said loudly: "Mr. Hai, Tang Fuzun, let me ask if the murder weapon was found in the previous three murder cases?" ”

Hai Rui and Tang Jingting looked at each other and shook their heads, because the case happened on the bridge, and in the first three cases, they all sent people into the water to salvage the murder weapon, but nothing was caught - this is also the reason why they did not send someone to salvage it as soon as possible after the case just now, they thought that they would not be able to catch anything like the first three.

Qin Lin said again: "And it is certain that the murder weapon of the previous Three Bridges mystery case is not the same as this one, and it is very clear that the murder weapon of the Three Bridges mystery case is a smooth ball, it may be a round-headed iron hammer, a meteor hammer, or a hard pebble - I am more inclined to the former, but the murder weapon in this case is an angular stone." ”

Hai Rui lowered his head and pondered for a moment, tasted a little taste of Qin Lin's words, and suddenly raised his head to look at him: "Hmm, the mystery of the three bridges, it is indeed a hammer or something, and the surname may be relatively big." ”

After all, he has many years of experience in handling cases, and as soon as Qin Lin mentioned it, Hai Rui understood that if it was a pebble or something, the murderer should have discarded it casually, who would take the pebbles away after smashing someone to death? In this way, first of all, bloody pebbles should be found near the scene of the crime, and secondly, the pebbles used each time are picked up by the murderer, and the size and shape must be different, but the result of the investigation of the case is completely opposite, neither the murder weapon was found, and the wounds of the deceased in the three murders were exactly the same shape.

This proves that the murderer not only took away the murder weapon, but this murder weapon is also a relatively handy, portable weapon or tool, and the murderer uses it every time to commit crimes, so the round-headed hammer, meteor hammer and the like may have a larger surname.

"Isn't it really the same murderer?" Hai Rui muttered to himself, his expression suspicious.

Tang Jingting was not convinced after all, pointed to the position of the lower body of the corpse, and said loudly: "What Brother Qin said, this official does not dare to agree, please see that the lower body of the corpse is dripping with blood, it is exactly the same as the previous three cases, this matter is not known to anyone other than the yamen at the prefecture and county levels, if there is another murderer, how can he do such a thing?" ”

Qin Lin looked at the lower body of the corpse stained red with blood, and frowned, but it was a little troublesome.

"What, even the lower body is ......" Gu Huiming was extremely surprised, looked at the corpse carefully, and suddenly knelt on the ground and wept bitterly: "Eldest brother, eldest brother, you died so miserably!" Even the lower body was ......."

Qin Lin thought about it and ordered Lu Yuanzhi to untie the corpse's pants, and at the moment when the pants just fell off, everyone present, including Hai Rui, Tang Jingting, Niu Dali, and Lu Yuanzhi, exclaimed in unison.

The flesh and blood between the legs were blurred, a mess of rotten flesh, and there were a lot of abrasions and smashing injuries on the inner sides of the two thighs, and Gu Kedu's thing was smashed into mud!

Gu Huiming suddenly cried, the cry was so harsh, after a while, he found that the atmosphere was strange, he raised his head to look at everyone, and saw that everyone looked very strange, so he wiped his tears and asked carefully: "Hai Qingtian, Tang Fuzun, who are you?" ”

It's weird, Hai Rui stroked his beard under his chin, in the first three cases, the deceased's thing was cut off and taken away by Qi Gen, it is estimated that he encountered Caisheng, but Gu Kedu's was smashed to pieces.

The first three cases and the last one have a lot in common, but there are also a lot of differences, and it always feels plausible......

Tang Jingting helped Gu Huiming up, and told him very unbearably: "In the first three murders, the deceased's crotch was indeed injured, but that thing was cut off by the roots and taken away, but the only one for the respected brother was smashed to pieces, alas, I don't know who has such a deep hatred with the respected brother." ”

Gu Huiming was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he beat his chest and said, "Who else?" It must be Qi Dalang and Qi Qin, who are in a lawsuit with their brother! When they couldn't complain, they did it......"

When Hai Rui heard this, he beckoned to Tang Jingting and whispered a few words to him.

So Tang Jingting smiled bitterly and asked Gu Huiming: "It's a matter of Brother Zun's life, don't hide it from your own official, do you have a ...... between Brother Ling and Qi Qin?"

Gu Huiming's face turned red, and he hesitated and did not answer.

Tang Jingting shook his head and sighed, stretched out his hand and beckoned, and the official brought a steward of the Gu family over, only to see Tang Jingting ask for a moment in a tone, the steward looked at Gu Huiming, whose face was flushed, and then looked at Gu Kedu, who had been dead for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded hesitantly.

"Needless to say, it's Qi Dalang! Accusations do not lead to murder, they are really vicious and vicious! Tang Jingting was very excited, and immediately ordered the county officials to arrest Qi Dalang.

Hai Rui's face darkened, and his expression was three points more than the previous one, if it was really Qi Dalang's complaint that he killed people in anger, his previous verdict of "things are arguing about appearance, rather than giving in to the eunuchs, I would rather give in to the people" has become a compendium for the murder case, how can I feel at ease?

Qi Dalang? Qin Lin looked at the backs of those who seemed to be flying away, and touched his chin thoughtfully......
