Daqing Criminal Division

What is so special about the dialogue between the mistress and the guest?

This matter, perhaps we have to go back to the very beginning, when the case of Zhang Meichu's murder began.

As we all know, that case happened on the night of the Ghost Festival.

Therefore, regarding the criminal characterization of the case of the female corpse in red sleeping shoes, it was defined as a serial murder case when the old police officer Zhang Ji first took over it personally and went to other officials in the state government.

Because the pre-death characteristics of the deceased female victim were basically the same as the method of being killed, after Duan Xiao personally performed autopsies on the four deceased, he found that they all had feet of the same size.

Red sleeping shoes, red nails, woman, feet.

——These four basic criminal elements constitute the common features of the victims in these four cases.

According to this, the government of the prefecture government has always followed the direction of evidence collection and investigation, and in these four cases, those who also have the motive of committing crimes should investigate.

But in fact, all the people involved may have overlooked one place.

That is, if the testimony provided by Juzi is partially true.

Then there is also a possibility, based on the fact that the suspect on the night Ma Fenghuang was killed was not among the three suspects on the night of Hungry Ghost Festival.

Because, the fourth victim, Ma Fenghuang, was killed.

It is very likely that it is not the same perpetrator as the other three cases, but a copycat crime.

What is copycat crime?

According to Duan Xiao's impression left by reading such books and files on the psychology of criminals over the years.

This word was first seen in the Ming Dynasty, and later spread to this dynasty.

Ordinary folks haven't seen this type of special case for many years, but it has always had a very high status in the filing of criminal and civil cases.

It is said that there was a precedent for imitation crimes in the government office of Zhangzhou in the late Ming Dynasty. At that time, a poet in Zhangzhou wrote a poem called "Green Clothes" at home.

This poem was originally in praise of a famous Qinhuai singer at that time whom he loved deeply.

In that poem, there are many descriptions of the beauty of women in green clothes, with a graceful posture like a fairy in the forest. Because the poems are well written and very charming, therefore, this "Green Clothes" was applauded by the world as soon as it was published in the literary world at that time, saying it was the first. A seven-character quatrain that is rare in the world.

But after that, the story of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies did not usher in a perfect ending.

Because after the singer and the poet separated due to emotional indifference.

Instead, she decided to marry Yuanwailang, a shipbuilder in the family at that time, as a second concubine. She also said that she would go to Nanyang to settle down in the near future. .

According to historical records, in the 19th year of Chongzhen, the poet dived into a dance workshop by the Qinhuai River one night.

After careful planning, he strangled the other party to death with a rope in the room after drinking, smashed his face with a hammer hidden in his sleeve, destroyed his body, and finally wrapped him in green clothes and threw him in the river.

After the incident, the Jinyiwei of the Ming court and everyone in Dongchang dispatched across the country to arrest this person, and even used many secret whistles scattered around the desperate people, but they all failed time and time again.

In the next few years, in the Ming Dynasty, there were many cases of throwing corpses with a hammer to disfigure their faces in that year, and most of the dead were women in green clothes.

At the beginning, the court and the government also doubted whether it was the same person who committed the crime.

Because most of the murdered women wore green clothes, but afterward, a private police officer used his own reasoning to make a conclusion.

Due to the long time span, these cases were not committed by the same person, but someone was using the poem "Green Clothes" as a disguise to imitate the reality of the crime.

The latter murderer deliberately imitated the former murderer by using the same tactics heard from elsewhere, so as to cover up his real crime.

Such behavior is called imitation crime in Ming Dynasty criminology.

Now that I think about it, there are great similarities between the green clothes case in the previous dynasty and the red night shoes case in the state capital. They are both a precedent that happened before, and there are imitations that contradict each other in terms of time and place. crime.

But to actually find out whether their new guess is really accurate, right now, I'm afraid the only way to stop alerting the 'real culprit' is before he clearly realizes that he was exposed because of a single sentence.

Duan Xiao is now an author.

But he also understands that the government needs to pay attention to the completeness of the witnesses and the evidence, so there must be some new details that no one has discovered the night Ma Fenghuang was killed.

Especially so far, there are a total of four male suspects in all the red night shoes female corpse cases that have occurred in this state capital.

That is, A salesman Yang Qingbing, B painting master Sun Xian, C local gangster Gong Sanhe, and the unknown man Ding Juzi said.

Previously, according to the records of such cases in the past dynasties, men committed violent crimes against women.

It mostly happens in the insulting and retaliatory killing of the other party. This kind of crime is mostly seen in men who are withdrawn, world-weary, and hate women.

Therefore, in the view of Fuchaerzi and Duan Xiao, in order for the murderer to actually reveal his true face, it is still necessary to let him show his true psychological state.

But they didn't expect that at that moment just now, the "greasy residue smell theory" between the mistress and the guest opened a breakthrough in the case.

A breakthrough that can overthrow the testimony in Juzi's mouth again.

Because, as long as the scene of that night is substituted into the scene in front of you, you can know how a person who claims to be drunk can smell the alcohol on another person that night, and how he can conclude that the other person must be drunk ?

The spread of smell is based on the degree to which one person has and the other has no ability to distinguish, so two conclusions have been drawn.

First, Juzi had an illusion when he was drunk; second, Juzi actually lied when he was not drunk.

But if Juzi lied, why did he deliberately come to the Yamen yesterday to mislead the officials and provide interfering testimony on the first three cases?

Because among all these conspiracies and lies, there is actually only one truth that hides the truth.

That is, the person who came to the government to provide witnesses may be the fourth person who killed Ma Fenghuang.

He knew very well that once the real culprits of the original three serial cases were caught.

The fact that there were originally two murderers in this case will be revealed, and this is the real purpose of the murderer who committed the imitation crime.

This strategy has to be said to be a wonderful but also bold serial scheme.

Among the three people on the Ghost Festival, there is one real murderer.

Knowing the emergence of new testimony, he must also understand that the other party is here to help him. After a few rounds, the two murderers reached a consensus and decided to escape together.

But these two murderers have calculated thousands of times, and perhaps they didn't expect that they would meet Fuchaerji and Duan Xiao, two weird people who specialize in dealing with this case in the case of He Chuzhoufu.

Thinking about it this way, Fuchaerzi and Duan Xiao, who hadn't figured it out last night, immediately thought through the cause and effect of it thoroughly.

These two people have always acted directly and swiftly, swiftly and resolutely.

There is no need to explain too much to others about every move, every thought, and it suddenly becomes clear.

And now that they have determined who the real culprit will be, the two of them are ready to catch the murderer in this state capital in this dense spider web to capture that child and another real culprit.

But these two guys just left at the fastest speed.

But turning around, thinking that the government still needs to cooperate in issuing arrest warrants, the two lone rangers quickly called the horse catcher who was still confused, and said the same thing, and Ma Zixiu finally reacted coming.

"So! You, what you two are saying now is that, in fact, there have been two real culprits in this case all along. One is to kill the first three victims including Mei Chu, and the other is to kill the first three victims, including Mei Chu, and the other is to be alone seven days ago. Is that what the murderer who killed Ma Fenghuang meant?"

Hearing this, he slapped the table anxiously and was about to jump up immediately.

Detective Ma Zixiu listened to the whole story all the way, with a look of shock and disbelief.

The food and drinks of the diners on the table next to them were all shocked by the incomparably frightening hand of the officer.

But if you think about it carefully, after the investigation, if there are really two murderers who don't know each other and imitate each other to interfere with the government's sight of handling the case, it is indeed very possible.

Especially after this dialing, it is like a person who is deeply in the fog being awakened by a gavel.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was suddenly enlightened, but after thinking about it, Ma Zixiu's face changed again, and immediately he slapped his head and said,

"No! I suddenly remembered something. This is not a good thing. You two, if, if the real culprit is really one of those three people, we released them from the government yesterday, and we didn't send anyone to take care of them. Look, that's not—"

This is probably the first time that Ma Zixiu's brain has been enlightened for a long time.

The government released people last night, and Juzi and the three suspects were released. Now, after a night, it is indeed possible that the real culprit has escaped.

- suffered.

These words made Fucha Erji and Duan Xiao immediately looked at each other.

He knew in his heart that this move was probably expected early in the morning, and he was going to use the method of getting the golden cicada out of its shell.

For a while, although the three of them were still in the restaurant on the west side of the city, they all wanted to say that they should immediately look for the people in the government to arrest the suspects as soon as possible.

But during the period, there was almost a small episode in the process of going to take the person in person.

Because just after the three soldiers split into two groups, Ma Zixiu also went to the yamen to find people and get the arrest warrant. Within half a moment, the official who arrived at the scene first was in vain, and everyone in Juzi's house had gone to the building. .

When the gang of knife officers almost kicked open the broken door of his house, they only found some clothes that were thrown in the brazier and burned about half an hour ago.

It was also when he hurriedly asked an old woman who lived next door to the suspect's house.

Only then did he learn that he seemed to have expected such a move in advance, and he had already picked up his things in about half an hour, saying that he was going out to visit friends.

"Old man, do you dare to ask, do you always talk to that neighbor who lives next door?"

The officials couldn't find anyone at home, so they had to ask the common people who lived nearby.

"Actually, yes, he doesn't talk very much. He was a decent person. I heard that he always went to the land of flowers and willows to drink some wine with people a few years ago, and he came back drunk. But recently he has been sick and always brought some cloth towels. My son is covering his nose, and he has to grab and take medicine, so life is not going well."

The old woman with her hair in a bun was living in front of the house, she was wearing a gown and cloth shoes, and she answered cautiously when she heard that.

"Then he's gone out now?"

"Yes, Mr. Guancha, the officer told me in the morning that he was going to go out for a few days, but he was delayed due to trivial matters seven days ago. of."

"So, old man, when did he leave! Which city gate is he heading for?"

"I don't know about this. I only heard that I probably have to go through the main city gate, because the path is wide and easy to pass. I don't know about the rest. The officials and lords please make amends..."

Once the news was brought back, everyone in the government was shocked.

Hearing that the brazier at Juzi's house hadn't been extinguished when he went there, he knew that he was really planning to run away.

Since the fire has not been extinguished, there is still time to catch up, and Ma Zixiu's arresters must hurry up to stop those who are already approaching the city gate of the state capital.

But when Fuchaerji and Duan Xiao heard that Juzi and his neighbors said they were going to the main city gate, they also said something.

"You can't go to the main city gate. With this character, he would definitely not go through the main city gate."

"It may be too late to catch up from the east and west directions."

This made sense, so in order to seize the urgent time, Duan Xiao and Fucha Erji found a carriage at the gate of the state capital and rushed to find the key person.

It's just that the ordinary carriages in the city are driven by the coachman, but they don't go fast.

So if you calculate the time to rush to arrest people, it will take half an hour to get to the gate where things go out of the city, and it may be too late to take a carriage.

When I looked up, I saw that the morning sun in the busy city of the state capital outside was very strong.

It was the first time that the two of them made such a bold move, one after the other, they threw money at the coachman, and after meeting their eyes, they took off the saddle in front of them.

It was also to see the other party and think of going with him again.

The two of them hadn't thought that the other could ride a horse before, but they couldn't hide their surprise sideways glances.

"You can ride a horse?"

"You can also ride a horse?"

After the two identical sentences fell, Fucha Erji and Duan Xiao were also strangely silent.

Regarding the various pasts of each other, they have always been unclear, and they have never had time to take the initiative to understand each other.

But there are opportunities in this world that do just that.

You always think that you are so close to some people, and you are a bit of a rivalry, but the more you get to know them, the more you feel that this person is also a little bit unexpected.

opponent.

This word, now that I think about it, is really worthy of the name.

They are indeed rare opponents in the world, and they are afraid that they will continue to fight like this, and continue to maintain their status as opponents.

But now the two are going to the city gate to join forces to arrest the murderer.

Now, one by one grabbed the next horse and unloaded it, but didn't say much for the time being, just one by one stepped on the steed that he got from the coachman, and walked around the main city gate to make an appointment.

To say that the two of them are not serious officials, but when it comes to their respective skills, they are surprisingly good.

Especially now that we have reached the most critical point in solving the case.

Now, if people run away, or if some key evidence is completely destroyed, it is really not good.

Because the main road in the city is not allowed to ride fast on horseback, so as not to collide with others.

Duan Xiao, who set off along the east side of Juzi's house, picked up the reins, and rode on the white horse all the way around the main city and walked quickly along the side road.

Seeing this, he also waved his whip, and Fuchaerzi, who used to be absurd and unscrupulous, was the first to turn over neatly, and just rode a black horse in a soap suit.

At that moment, the faces of these two people were a little proud and presumptuous.

Because it has been a long time since they rode their horses to catch the murderer again for a gamble, and also because they are not inferior to any people in the court, just like Taishan surpassing ordinary people's chic and abnormal adult masculinity.

"drive--"

Accompanied by the neighing of two steeds.

All the official roads in Chuzhou Mansion are open for them, and because they carry a temporary arrest warrant issued by the government, no one dares to stop them when they try to break into the city gate.

On the way, the posture of these two people on horseback attracted the attention of the people on the side of the road.

Fucha Erji and Duan Xiaoyuan were tall, straight and handsome, and this ride of horses fully demonstrated the vigor and strength of their previous bodies in the capital, just like a rare scene in this state capital.

It was also the way to arrest the murderer, waiting for the group of out-of-town people lined up outside the east and west gates of Chuzhou Prefecture to finally welcome an uninvited visitor in front of everyone, only to hear the guards on the gate shout in surprise said a word.

"Who is here!! What are you going to do with your horse at the east gate of the state capital! You haven't reported your name yet!"

The next second, the mane-covered horse, one black and one white, neighed and crossed the gate fence, and everyone saw the man on the horse stop them with a cold expression and said,

"Fuchardhi."

"Duan Owl."
