"According to the condition of the corpse, the time of death was at least five days." Su Xing stretched out his finger and pointed to the neck and hands and feet of the deceased, "Look, Captain Yan, the marks on the neck, wrists and ankles prove that the deceased died during his lifetime. been tied up."

Yan Lan nodded.

Su Xing continued: "There are no bleeding points in the eyelids, and there are no bruises on the lips and nails. Death by suffocation is initially ruled out. There is a depressed fracture in the skull. Whether it is a fatal injury will not be known until after the autopsy. The section of the external genitalia has obvious life reactions. Cut off while the dead were alive."

Yan Lan: "It's very similar to the deceased yesterday."

"Yes, similar head and body injuries, also without any clothing or identification." Su Xing raised his head and looked at Yan Lan, "Team Yan, this case is not simple."

Yan Lan: "I don't have a simple case in my hands."

"That's right." Su Xing stood up, "I'll issue the autopsy report as soon as possible. Has the source of the last corpse been confirmed?"

Yan Lan: "Still investigating, it should be soon. How did you get here?"

"Ah?" Su Xing blinked, and it took him a long time to realize the last sentence, and quickly replied, "I came by car and parked outside the school."

"I'll take your car back to the bureau."

"Oh, good." Su Xing took off his investigation uniform and put it on the police car, and walked out side by side with Yan Lan.

Yan Lan took out a cigarette from his pocket and asked, "Do you mind?"

Su Xing glanced at Yan Lan, shook his head and said, "It's okay, Captain Yan, you can smoke."

Yan Lan slowly exhaled a smoke ring: "A local?"

"Yeah. From the West End."

"Me too."

Su Xing smiled: "The West District is such a big place, maybe we passed by it before."

"Maybe." Yan Lan remained expressionless.

Su Xing asked: "Why don't you go back with the police car?"

"Annoying." Yan Lan sighed softly, "Deputy Bureau Liu is too nagging, Zeng Cheng talks more."

Su Xing: "Aren't Captain Yan afraid that I'm a talkative person?"

"I can ignore you if you talk too much."

Su Xing: "..."

So, on the way out of the school, Su Xing kept a safe distance from Yan Lan, and no one spoke.

"I'm just a scooter, Captain Yan, don't dislike it." Su Xing sat in the cab, took out the hand sanitizer on the side and pressed a pump, and then handed it to Yan Lan, "Wipe your hands, let's go back to the game and wait." wash."

"Thank you."

When Yan Lan put his hands back, he found that Su Xing was taking medicine. He frowned and asked, "Sick?"

Su Xing quickly swallowed the water and said with a smile: "No, no, how can I look sick like this?! It's just health care products."

"Oh." After Yan Lan fastened the seat belt, she stopped talking and leaned against the headrest of the passenger seat with her eyes closed.

Su Xing started the car and drove towards the Municipal Bureau.Yan Lan didn't make a sound, she didn't know if she was closing her eyes or she was really asleep.While waiting for the red light, Su Xing took a closer look at Yan Lan, and he had to admit that Yan Lan was indeed handsome even from the perspective of his own gender.Regardless of appearance, Yan Lan's mature and stable temperament is very attractive.It's just that at this time, the handsome and temperamental head of the criminal investigation detachment has a group of fatigue that hasn't melted away between his brows.Only then did Su Xing realize that Yan Lan hadn't slept all day.

The University of Science and Technology is not far from the City Bureau. While Su Xing was thinking that driving slower would allow Yan Lan to sleep for a while, he also thought about the undissected corpse. It's in sight.

Su Xing parked the car and called out cautiously: "Captain Yan?"

"Hmm..." Yan Lan seemed to wake up after only being dazed for a moment.At the same time as he opened his eyes, the tiredness between his brows also disappeared.He unbuttoned his seat belt and said, "Hurry up and do the autopsy."

Su Xing reached out and took out a can of iced coffee from the car refrigerator on the back seat and handed it to Yan Lan, saying, "Team Yan has worked hard."

"Thanks." Yan Lan took the coffee, turned around and got out of the car.

As the car door closed, Su Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief. He purposely dawdled for a while, watching Yan Lan enter the main building before walking towards the door of the criminal department on the other side.

6:14 in the morning.

"The source of the corpse has been confirmed!" Bai Ze's words shocked everyone in the office area of ​​the detachment.

Baize spoke quickly and said: "Duan Zhuo, male, 32 years old, from Xijiang City, single, works in a private enterprise in this city. The appendectomy was performed in the First Hospital of Pinglu City on July 7th. He was discharged home on July 5. The last time his family contacted him was on July 7, and he did not answer his phone or WeChat after that. On July 9, his family called the police, but due to the local police station, they did not immediately collect DNA samples from their immediate family members. So there is no information about him in the database. However, the local Public Security Bureau rushed to take samples yesterday, and the DNA comparison results have just confirmed the identity of the deceased.”

Qiao Chen stood up immediately: "Bai, send him his address, and call Shanghenjian to show up together."

Yan Lan came out of the office and said, "Lin, check the communication records and check the social relations."

"Okay!" Lin Huan immediately started working.

Pang Guanglong's cell phone rang at this moment, he quickly picked up the phone, then stood up in shock: "What! Where is it?"

Yan Lan and Qiao Chen stopped and looked back at Pang Guanglong. While listening to the phone, Pang Guanglong quickly wrote a few words on a piece of paper and handed them to Yan Lan.

"Lingyan District, South River Guard, male corpse."

After reading these words, Yan Lan immediately began to make arrangements: "Lin, the task at hand is handed over to the technical detective. You and Qiao Chen will go to the home of the first deceased with the trace inspection. Bai, please invite Mr. Wang to the scene. "

Pang Guanglong had already put down the phone at this time, and Yan Lan interrupted him just as he was about to open his mouth: "Tell me on the way when everyone is together."

Two minutes later, two police cars drove out of the Municipal Bureau compound.On the car heading to Lingyan District, Pang Guanglong began to talk about the situation: "At 2:4 in the morning, Lingyan District received a report that a male body was found in Nanhuhe, and the police station in the jurisdiction reported it to the sub-bureau, which took the body back after criminal investigation. Yes, it is said that the source of the corpse has also been confirmed. Because we heard that a similar male corpse was found here, we suspected it was a serial incident, so we notified us."

Yan Lan asked, "Has it been cut too?"

Pang Guanglong nodded: "Yes. They should have started the autopsy, should we let them wait for us?"

"Need." Su Xing's voice came from the back seat, "I want to participate in the autopsy."

"Okay, then I will inform them." Pang Guanglong lowered his head and said while typing, "By the way, Xiao Su, how about the last corpse?"

Su Xing still looked out of the window, and replied: "The cause of death was craniocerebral injury caused by head trauma. He was restrained before his death, and the cause of death was the same as that of the first corpse."

Bai Ze asked, "The autopsy is over so soon?"

Su Xing: "I just finished the autopsy, and you called me out before the official report was released."

Bai Ze scratched his head embarrassingly: "Team Yan asked me to call me Mr. Wang, but Mr. Wang doesn't work the night shift anymore. I know you from the forensic room."

Su Xing turned his head and smiled: "It's okay, it's all the same. I can appear on the scene independently a long time ago. Don't torment him when Master is old."

Pang Guanglong turned his head from the passenger seat and looked at Bai Ze: "Hey, beast, do you have any kind of magic that can go back to the past in ancient times? The kind that can see the murderer?"

Yan Lan held the steering wheel and said coldly, "Fatty, you talk too much."

Pang Guanglong muttered: "Boss, there are three corpses, I'm in a hurry!"

"It's okay, Captain Yan." Bai Ze quickly smoothed things over, "I don't mind."

Su Xing asked Bai Ze who was sitting on the side in a low voice: "Why does fat brother call you a beast?"

Pang Guanglong rushed to talk: "Don't you know, Xiao Su? The ancient mythical beast Bai Ze! That is a divine beast that exorcises ghosts and suppresses evil spirits."

Su Xing looked at Pang Guanglong blankly, and Pang Guanglong shook his head and said: "There is Bai Zetu at home, and all the monsters will be eliminated. Why? Didn't you hear it from your parents when you were young?"

Su Xing shook his head: "I really don't know."

Bai Ze said in a low voice: "You can go to Baidu to find out. It is true that there is a legendary beast called Bai Ze."

"There are divine beasts in our team, and any cases must be solved." Pang Guanglong took a sneak peek at Yan Lan, and asked tentatively, "Is that right? Boss?"

Yan Lan: "Don't be poor, didn't you just say that the source of the corpse was confirmed?"

"Oh yes!" Pang Guanglong opened the screen of his mobile phone, called up the message he had just received, and introduced, "The deceased Zhang Mingzhi, male, 47 years old, from this city, was unemployed. He used to be a worker in Lingyan Chemical Plant, and the factory moved out. He bought out his working years before, and has been unemployed at home collecting rent since then. His wife passed away in an accident six years ago, and now there is only one 21-year-old daughter in the family. She is studying in Beijing. She didn’t go home this holiday and has been in school. What activities to participate in. The Lingyan branch said that his daughter has been notified, and he should be back at noon."

Yan Lan digested the information, and then asked, "Su Xing, how old is No. 2 deceased?"

Su Xing replied: "40 to 45 years old, no matter how accurate it is, it will be tested by an instrument. The DNA has been put into the database for comparison, and someone in the laboratory is watching, and I will be notified if there is any news."

Bai Ze thought for a while and said, "Team Yan, I think this murderer seems to have an inexplicable feeling for male genitalia. This is true for three consecutive corpses. The murderer may have some obstacles in himself, or he may have been hurt. I remember seeing a case where a man in a foreign country was bullied by the same sex because he developed late when he was a child, which caused him to be mentally distorted. Later, when he met anyone older than him, he would..."

"That's enough, my precious beast!" Pang Guanglong shuddered, "Stop talking about it, it hurts my ass."

At this moment, Yan Lan's phone rang. He glanced at the phone screen and turned on the speakerphone. The moment he connected, Liu Yi's furious voice came from the phone: "Yan Lan! What did you do?!"

Yan Lan seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and was not taken aback like the other three people in the car.He said calmly, "I'm driving and taking people to Lingyan District."

Liu Yi: "Two days! Three rivers are floating! Are you still going to do it!"

Yan Lan was still very calm: "Go on, I'm on my way to work. Deputy Director Liu, we have confirmed the identity of the deceased, which is already very fast. If you have time to yell at me, why don't you ask Zeng Cheng to tell me Surveillance is handed over, and what he can't find out doesn't mean we can't find out. I really can't believe that two corpses appeared in the West District, and there is no camera in Jianhai, where there are five steps and one monitoring place. .Let’s not talk about it, I’m going to the Lingyan sub-bureau soon, please remember to help me to monitor, thank you!”

Before Liu Yi could say anything else, Yan Lan hung up the phone quickly.

Pang Guanglong was stunned for a few seconds, and said in disbelief, "Boss? Did you just hang up the phone of Deputy Director Liu?"

Yan Lan asked blankly, "Didn't you hear that?"

Pang Guanglong gave a thumbs up and said sincerely: "The boss is amazing! If you dare to hang up the deputy director's phone, it really is our boss!"

"Here we are, get out of the car." Yan Lan turned off the ignition.

Several people got out of the car and walked to the building of the Lingyan Sub-bureau.

As soon as he entered the building, someone greeted him: "Detachment Yan, I'm Zhang Ping, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Lingyan Sub-bureau."

Yan Lan nodded: "Team Zhang has worked hard. Did you perform an autopsy just now? The forensic doctor from our city bureau has followed."

Zhang Ping: "Not yet, we have completed the transfer procedures for this case, and the corpse will naturally be handled by the Municipal Bureau."

Yan Lan glanced back at Su Xing, and Su Xing immediately stepped forward and said, "Let me take a look at the corpse first."

Yan Lan: "Okay, then I would like to trouble Team Zhang to make arrangements. In addition, we also want to see the scene."

Zhang Ping nodded and said: "No problem, I will call someone to take you to the scene."

Pang Guanglong answered at this time: "I'll take Bai to the scene, Captain Yan, don't run away."

Soon the group split into two groups, Yan Lan and Su Xing went to the forensic room accompanied by Zhang Ping, while Pang Guanglong and Bai Ze followed another policeman to the scene for investigation.

In the autopsy room, Su Xing took a rough look at the corpse, and then said to Yan Lan, "Team Yan, can this corpse be taken back? I still need master's guidance in some places."

Zhang Ping rushed to reply immediately: "Yes, I will arrange it right away!"

Su Xing looked at the back of Zhang Ping going out, and asked puzzledly: "Captain Yan, what does Captain Zhang mean?"

Yan Lan put his hands on his chest and said, "Transfer it to the Municipal Bureau, they just need to cooperate with the investigation. No one wants such a murder case to happen in their own jurisdiction. If it can be confirmed that the deceased is highly similar to the previous two sex, it can basically be classified as a serial murder case. Once the Municipal Bureau took over, the pressure to solve the case will be on us. If someone is willing to pick up the hot potato, of course he quickly throws it out."

Su Xing smiled noncommittally, pulled the body bag away, and said to Yan Lan: "There are marks of blunt instrument blows on the head, restraint injuries, and the external genitals were cut. The technique is very similar, except that the right hand of this corpse It’s gone. I want Master to check for me, but I’m still not sure about some things.”

Yan Lan nodded, then raised his hand habitually, but found that his wrist was empty, and then he remembered that he had taken off his watch in Deputy Director Liu's office.

"It's 07:30 soon." Su Xing pointed to the wall clock on the wall next to him, "There are watches in the autopsy room."

Yan Lan's cell phone rang again, he took out the cell phone to take a look, and walked out of the dissecting room quickly.Across the door of the dissecting room, Su Xing only vaguely heard a few words like "very busy" and "not going home".He had no intention of prying into the leader's privacy, so he walked into the dissection room.

When Yan Lan returned to the dissecting room again, Su Xing was standing by the wall thinking about something. The disposable protective clothing didn't make Su Xing look bloated, but made him look taller and straighter. It's just this back...Su Xing's face He always has a smile on his face, and everyone in the team says he is a sunny boy, but this back looks alienated and indifferent, giving people a feeling that he is inaccessible.

Hearing the voice, Su Xing turned around, and in just one turn, the feeling of loneliness just now disappeared.He leaned against the wall casually, with a smile still on his face: "Captain Yan is back? What are we doing now?"

Yan Lan: "Wait for Fatty and Bai to come back, then go back to the City Bureau."

At this time, Zhang Ping pushed the door in and said, "Team Yan, I have all the documents ready, and we can hand them over after you sign."

Yan Lan nodded, Zhang Ping took out another hard drive, and said, "The law enforcement recorder and the monitoring around the south moat before the body was found are all in this hard drive. If you need anything else, please call me anytime. Our Lingyan The sub-bureau must fully cooperate!"

Yan Lan took the hard drive and said, "Well, I'll drive to find our people, and we'll go straight back to the Municipal Bureau after we're done, please ask Team Zhang to send us a car to take the body to the Municipal Bureau."

Zhang Ping nodded again and again: "No problem, I will listen to you!"

Yan Lan asked Su Xing: "Are you going back with the corpse or with me?"

Su Xing hesitated, Yan Lan saw this and said, "Okay, you can go back to the Municipal Bureau."
