205 Perverted Murder Case
There was a piece of farmland Chengxi that belonged to the villagers nearby. At this time of the year, the crops in the fields had been harvested, leaving only a large piece of bare land.
Due to the urgency of the matter, Shen Yin did not go to the police station to clock in first. Instead, she drove straight to Chengxi.
When she got out of the car, Zou Sheng and Meng Heng were trying their best to persuade the nearby villagers not to take photos and spread them. They spent a long time dissuading the agitated crowd.
When they looked up and saw Shen Yin, they immediately ran over as if they had seen their savior.
“Sister, you’re finally here. Quick, go and take a look. This was really done by a terrible pervert!”
The moment Zou Sheng saw Shen Yin, he started complaining bitterly.
He was not be blamed. As a police officer, he was under a great deal of psychological pressure. This was a really rare case. Once it got out, the leaders of the municipal bureau would definitely put pressure on them.
“What’s the corpse like?” Shen Yin put on her gloves and shoe covers nonchalantly, lifted the cordon, and stepped onto the soft soil.
The weather that morning was still a little wet and cold. The soil was covered with morning dew, and her feet sank a little with each step.
“It’s too tragic. I can guarantee that you’ve never seen anything like this.” Zou Sheng walked with Shen Yin into the field, leaving Meng Heng to continue maintaining order outside.
Shen Yin grew curious and followed Zou Sheng to Wu Zheng’s side. After a brief greeting, her gaze fell on the corpse on the ground.
Even Shen Yin’s eyes widened. She finally understood why Zou Sheng said that this murderer was perverted.
She had been a forensic pathologist for so many years and had seen countless sexual assault cases, but she had never seen anything like this.
In the field, an old woman who looked to be seventy years old was bent over, with her head forced into the ground. Her legs were spread apart as she knelt on the ground. Her pants had vanished, revealing loose skin. The cold wind blew against her naked flesh.
Shen Yin squatted down and began to examine the corpse’s posture.
The weather was too cold and the victim had been in this position for a long time. Her joints were already stiff. It would not be easy to lay her flat.
“Sister, do you need help?” Zou Sheng also squatted down and helped her remove the stockings that had been tied tightly around the victim’s neck so that she could check the ligature marks.
“Preliminary conclusion is that the cause of death was asphyxiation. The wounds on the abdomen were probably non-fatal. The time of death was approximately 10pm to 2am. The corpse needs to be taken back to the police station for a detailed examination before I can say anything else.”
Shen Yin frowned and sniffed the corpse’s nose and mouth carefully. Suddenly, she said, “The deceased drank alcohol. Who did she drink with? We have to check what time she drank.”
“Leave that to me!” Zou Sheng noted down these questions, found the person who had reported the case, and began to ask about the local situation.
The person who reported the case was the owner of the field, but there was no connection between him and the deceased. They were just neighbors who lived in the same district.
“This old lady was quite sneaky. There were always conflicts between her and her daughter-in-law. Her family lives in the innermost house.” The person who reported the case, Chen Kuan, was a bald man. He looked quite fierce, but he knew everything about the family.
“This is such a major incident, I’m afraid that everyone Chengxi is here. Is no one from her family here?” Zou Sheng pulled up the family’s information and looked around curiously.
“No, let me take a look.” Chen Kuan narrowed his eyes and looked around carefully. Then, he nodded affirmatively. “Yes, none of them came. I’ll take you to their house to take a look. I have to ask them for an explanation. Now that she has died in my field, how can I work this field in the future?”
Zou Sheng put away the tablet and nodded. “Then I’ll have to trouble you to lead the way. However, I think you should talk to them later. After all, such a big thing has just happened to her family. I’m afraid they’ll be in turmoil.”
“Their family is always in turmoil.” Chen Kuan was quite disdainful when he talked about that family. “Officer, I’m afraid you’ll laugh, but that family might be secretly happy that this old lady is gone! The old lady only had one son, but she had to build a shed and live alone. She probably had an accident on the way home last night.”
“Is that the shed over there?” Zou Sheng pointed in the opposite direction, at a shed that had been illegally built. From afar, he thought it was a rubbish station.
“Yes, that’s the one. Winter is coming soon. Isn’t it a sin?” Chen Kuan pursed his lips and led Zou Sheng to the entrance of the courtyard before turning to leave. He did not mention anything about wanting an explanation from the family. It seemed that Zou Sheng had dissuaded him.
“Is this Old Madam Lin’s home?” Zou Sheng knocked politely on the iron gate and he heard rustling sounds coming from the house.
A couple opened the door. They looked to be in their forties, and the woman was carrying a newborn child.
“Yes, yes, yes.” The man smiled apologetically and quickly pulled open the iron gate. He asked knowingly, “You’re a police officer, right?”
