The seventh day of the new year.
“Harlongjiang province, Manzhou city. ”
“The weather was cold and the ground was frozen, and snow was falling. ”
“On the road about 12 kilometers Northwest of the city, several police cars were slowly driving on the road. ”
“This road was a small country road. Whenever winter came, the snow would close the road and there would be few people. ”
“At that moment, the snow sweeping vehicle was clearing the way in front, so the police cars behind could pass smoothly. ”
“””Officer Zhao, it’s great that you’re here to guide us!”” A burly police officer with a beard said to Zhao Yu from the passenger seat,””it’s so cold, and you’re on your annual leave. You’ve worked hard!”” ”
“Zhao Yu sat in the middle of the back seat, with his girlfriend Miao Ying on his left and his “”suspected girlfriend”” Xi menna on his right. ”
“As the Criminal Division’s mission was urgent, Zhao Yu had no choice but to bring Xi Mengna along to Manzhou. ”
“””It’s okay,”” Zhao Yu said to The Bearded Captain.””Captain Qiu, since there’s an important case, there’s no vacation to speak of! ”
“””At least you let me go home for the new year. That’s not bad!”” ”
“””Officer Zhao’s noble character and unquestionable integrity are admirable,”” Captain Qiu complimented him and said.””In fact, this case had already appeared as early as winter! ”
“””Before the new year, on the day of the Lunar New Year, we appeared together again. We didn’t rest for a single day! ”
“””I thought it would be better after the new year, but I didn’t expect the murderer to commit another crime so quickly! “”Officer Zhao,”” Captain Qiu swallowed and said worriedly,””we are sparsely populated here. When winter comes, there are many places with no one. I’m really worried that there are still bodies that have not been found!”” ”
“””Captain Qiu,”” Miao Ying looked out the window and asked,””how long will it take for us to arrive at the scene?”” ”
“””Soon, soon,”” Captain Qiu said.””In about ten minutes! The meihe bridge is in front of us!”” ”
“””In that case,”” Miao Ying said,””tell us the case!”” ”
“Although Zhao Yu and Miao Ying had already read the case report, every time they arrived, the local criminal investigation Captain would give them a detailed report. ”
“””Okay, okay,”” Captain Qiu turned around and said to the two,””on December 21st last year, under the Dongli bridge in Dongli village, Manzhou, someone found a hanged female body! ”
“””When it was found, the body had been hanging for a few days. The initial estimate is that the time of death should be around December 16th. ”
“””The deceased was naked and had been frozen … ”
“””After investigation, the deceased was a Russia woman named Eliza. She was a waitress at the victory Hotel in Manzhou city. She was only 19 years old this year. ”
“””The woman has been in Manzhou for less than three years. She is currently dating a local man and is preparing to get married after the new year …”” ”
“Listening to Captain Qiu’s introduction, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying looked through the case records. There were photos of the crime scene in the records. Looking at the frozen female body in the photos, Zhao Yu couldn’t help but feel emotional. ”
“He had seen all kinds of corpses since he started working as a criminal investigator, but this was the first time he had seen a frozen corpse. ”
Why would the murderer kill a foreign girl so cruelly and hang her under the bridge?
“Xi menna was a complete layman, but after hearing Captain Qiu’s story, she had a strange expression on her face. She was both curious and shocked. ”
“””According to the autopsy report,”” Captain Qiu continued,””the deceased was not hanged, but was strangled by the murderer and then hung under the bridge!”” ”
“””Under the bridge …”” Zhao Yu interrupted and asked,””there’s nothing under the bridge, so how did the murderer hang the person up?”” ”
“””It’s the expansion tube,”” Captain Qiu said.””The murderer hit two expansion tubes under the bridge. The expansion tubes can withstand about 150 kilograms of force …”” ”
“””Oh …”” Zhao Yu nodded, then muttered to himself,””if you want to lower the expanding tube, you have to use an electric drill. If there’s no power supply in the wild, you have to use an electric drill with its own power supply …”” ”
“””Then, is there any sign that the deceased’s surname is Shang?”” Miao Ying asked. ”
“””There are!”” Captain Qiu nodded and said,””there are obvious traces of violation, but the murderer was extremely careful and did not leave any hair or body fluids … ”
“””Also,”” Captain Qiu said awkwardly,””our forensic abilities are limited. At present, we can’t find out whether the victim was violated before or after death!”” ”
“””Yes,”” Miao Ying nodded,””our forensic team is already on the way. They will arrive before dark today.”” ”
“””Then …”” Zhao Yu pointed to the report and said,””let’s talk about the second case!”” ”
“””Okay,”” Captain Qiu said.””The second case was the same as the first one, although the victim was found on the day of the new year. ”
“””But, because the crime scene was too far away from the city, and it was surrounded by the wilderness, and it was just in time for the snow to seal the mountains and the new year, it was found too late. ”
“””According to the forensic experts”” initial estimates, the deceased has been dead for nearly two weeks … ”
“Captain Qiu said,””it’s early this year, so the gap between the two cases is not very long …”” ”
“””Is the victim Russian too?”” Zhao Yu asked. ”
“””Yes,”” Captain Qiu nodded and said,””although the deceased’s name was Zhang Mei, she was a Russia girl. She had not changed her nationality yet! ”
“””She’s 23 years old this year. She’s a dancer from Manzhou Red Star song and dance group. She’s single and doesn’t have a partner …”” ”
“””Where did you find it?”” Miao Ying asked. ”
“””It’s near White flag town, which is South of the Urban area. The bridge doesn’t have a name, so we’ll call it white flag bridge for the time being,”” Captain Qiu explained.””It’s close to the forest in the mountains, and it’s relatively remote. ”
“””Especially in winter, the entire white flag town will go to the city for winter, leaving only the forest guards there. The body was found by the people at the forest Guard station! ”
“””Just like the first case, the victim was not wearing any clothes. After examination, it was also found that she was strangled to death first and then hung off the bridge …”” ”
“””Also,”” Captain Qiu paused for a moment and said,””that place is close to the forest. Because the corpse was not hung high enough, the right foot of the deceased was bitten by a beast. Three toes were missing …”” ”
“While Captain Qiu was introducing the photos, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying had already seen the corresponding photos. When Xi Mengna couldn’t help but take a few more looks, she suddenly retched twice, quickly covered her mouth and turned her head away, not daring to look at them anymore … ”
“””Police officer Zhao,”” Captain Qiu swallowed his saliva and said,””this case is indeed very serious! It was only the seventh day of the new year, and the third case had actually appeared! ”
“””Here …”” He looked straight ahead.””We’ll be reaching Mei HeQiao soon. According to the report from the crime scene, the deceased was also a foreign woman, and her death was exactly the same as the previous two cases!”” ”
“””This is definitely a brutal, premeditated serial murder! ”
“””Let me put it this way,”” Captain Qiu said.””This is the first official murder case since the establishment of Manzhou. I didn’t expect it to be a serial murder …”” ”
“””And, and … Because this matter has already spread among the people, there are many evil rumors now. I don’t know if you’ve heard of it!”” ”
“””Mm …”” Zhao Yu nodded slightly.””If it weren’t for this legend, the higher-ups wouldn’t have sent me here on the seventh day of the new year!”” ”
“””Rumors? What rumors?”” Xi menna could not help but ask. ”
“””Phew …”” Zhao Yu took a deep breath and said,””since you like to speculate so much, there’s no reason you don’t know about the hanging bridge female corpse case that happened in Eastern Europe in the 1940s, right?”” ”
“””The dead body on the draw bridge … Oh …”” Simone’s eyes widened.””This case is as famous as the London Ripper. It’s one of the top ten unsolved cases in the world. The murderer has not been caught yet!”” ”
“””Could … Could it be … That someone is imitating the killer of the hanging bridge female corpse case?”” ”
