Chapter 200 Is the real murderer a human or an animal?
"I dare not claim to be the number one detective in Jiangcheng, but I have never made a mistake before." He Jiang said: "The paw prints of the alien beasts are clearly displayed in front of us, telling us one thing that is unmistakable. The strange beast entered this stone crevice, but I don’t know why Detective Lin said the strange beast was not in the grotto.”
"Indeed! I agree with the first half of your answer. The real murderer did enter this crevice, but does that mean he is still there?"
"What do you mean?" The smile on He Jiang's face disappeared.
"The meaning is very clear. It went in, but it came out again!"
"Going in and coming out again...impossible!" He Jiang said: "There are only paw prints going in and no paw prints coming out at the entrance of the cave!"
Only he is qualified to make this assertion because of his miraculous "footprint floating technique".
"There is indeed no entrance to the cave!" Lin Xiaosu said: "But what about the top of the cave? Is it possible... that it climbed out of the stone wall on the top of the cave?"
Everyone raised their heads and stared at the top of the grotto.
Li Chu snorted coldly: "It's nonsense, so ridiculous! The so-called ferocious beast has a habit of moving. What reason does it have to climb from the top of the cave instead of walking on the ground?"
Lin Xiaosu said lightly: "If you don't climb from the top of the cave, how could it lead you astray?"
Captain Zhang was shocked: "You mean...this ferocious beast still has anti-investigation consciousness?"
Lin Xiaosu said: "Captain Zhang is so sure that the real murderer must be a strange beast, not a human?"
At this moment, everyone was eclipsed...
Zhou Mei's heart was beating so hard that she forgot to breathe while staring at Lin Xiaosu...
She brought Lin Xiaosu here.
Captain Zhang helped her hold a tank.
However, she was also questioning herself whether it was necessary to bring him here.
But now, what he said was a denial of He Jiang.
He Jiang has determined that the real culprit of the murder is an alien beast, and all the evidence supports the theory that the alien beast killed the person.
However, Lin Xiaosu now said that the real murderer was actually a human!
If it is a strange beast, Lin Xiaosu's statement of withdrawing from the cave roof is actually untenable, because beasts cannot have a strong sense of counter-investigation, and cannot deliberately create a maze to lead investigators astray.
But if the real culprit is a human, his account has a high degree of credibility.
"The real murderer... is not a strange beast but a human being!" He Jiang smiled: "What a sensational statement, Detective Lin. What counts in solving a case is evidence, not wild imagination."
"Don't Detective He have the unique skill of spraying and collecting evidence?" Lin Xiaosu said: "Why don't you take out your spray bottle, I point to a few locations, and you spray!"
He raised his hand slightly and pointed to a location.
Captain Zhang looked at the place he pointed at, and his heart was slightly shaken. If it were before, he might not be able to understand the clues about this stone wall, but now, after genetic modification, his eyesight is extraordinary, and he noticed this stone wall. Several stones fell off the stone wall.
He Jiang stared at this position, his expression quietly changing.
Everyone stared at him.
"Detective He, you might as well give it a try!" Captain Zhang said.
He Jiang took out the watering can and sprayed it on this location, and something strange happened.
A paw print emitting green fluorescence was clearly visible.
That Li Chu's expression really changed.
Zhou Mei's eyes really lit up.
"Here, continue!" Lin Xiaosu said.
This spray is another green paw print...
Soon, following Lin Xiaosu's guidance, the clear paw prints on the cave wall connected in a line. They came out of the grotto and reached the rock on the top of the grotto. Then, they went down the hillside until a green stream appeared in front of them. The paw prints disappeared by the stream.
Having reached this point, no matter how stubborn you are, you have to admit it.
The real murderer did not actually enter the grotto.
It just assumed the posture of entering the cave and then evacuated from the top of the cave.
"Detective Lin, I admire you!" He Jiang smiled heartily: "It seems that the old saying is still true, since ancient times heroes have emerged from youth!"
His words were hearty and generous.
Lin Xiaosu smiled slightly: "Excuse me, it's just a fluke! Next, can Detective He find a way to continue tracking?"
"Of course there is a way!" He Jiang said: "My He family has seven tracking techniques, and it is inevitable to fall on it."
"Then I won't disturb Detective He!" Lin Xiaosu sat down by the stream.
He Jiang checked up and down, crossed the river, and checked on the other side of the river. The scope of the inspection became wider and wider, and gradually became one or two miles away from them.
Lin Xiaosu did not follow. He seemed to have no intention of further intervening, but his eyes shone with a strange light...
A sigh came from behind, faintly: "I invited you here today, and you have gained a lot of limelight, but I'm afraid it's going to be miserable, and you may have offended the leaders of the provincial department."
"So? I need to handle this case thoroughly and use a solid record to erase the damage you have suffered?"
"What do you mean?" Zhou Mei said, "Have you found a breakthrough point?"
"Maybe!" Lin Xiaosu replied with two words. Although these two words were somewhat vague, the cells in Zhou Mei's body seemed to be suddenly stimulated to the greatest extent.
"Where?"
"Cross the river!" Lin Xiaosu stretched out her hand, grabbed Zhou Mei's shoulder, and gently pulled her across the eight-meter-wide stream to the opposite side.
He stared at the ground opposite. In fact, He Jiang had already sprayed the ground with a watering can. The biggest advantage of this "Footprint Floating Technique" is that it can clearly show the footprints of living creatures. In this round of operations just now, everyone also You can see many footprints on the other side of the river, but you can't find any familiar footprints on this side of the river.
Therefore, everyone speculated that the ferocious beast went down the river or up the river and landed somewhere else. They have found several miles of land.
"The person named He here has already been sprayed, and there are no special footprints." Zhou Mei said.
"This footprint is a bit special." Lin Xiaosu pointed to a footprint in the mud on the ground.
Zhou Mei glanced down and saw that this was a standard human footprint, barefoot, very clear.
"These are human footprints, not..." Zhou Mei's voice suddenly stopped and she stared at Lin Xiaosu.
"I just reminded them that the real murderer is most likely not a beast but a human! They are still stubborn..."
Zhou Mei said: "Do you suspect that he took off his disguise in this stream and returned to his human form? Cutting off the tracking chain in such an incredible way?"
"Yes!"
"But you are just guessing! It is impossible to say whether it is a human or a ferocious beast. It is normal for a human footprint to appear here. There are villages around here."
Lin Xiaosu said: "It's normal to have footprints, but is it normal to be barefoot?"
Zhou Mei's heart moved slightly, it was true!
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
It was late autumn at this time, and the river was not wide. The narrower parts could be crossed in a single jump. What reason was there to take off your shoes?
Taking off your shoes to cross a river is not logically feasible.
It is even more abnormal to walk on this grass without shoes, because this grass is made of a local grass called grass root. At this time of year, the grass root is very hard, and it hurts like needles when it pricks the soles of the feet.
Is it possible that this person doesn't have any shoes?
There may be times of war and chaos, but in modern society, no matter how poor a family is, they always have a few pairs of shoes. In short, this footprint is very abnormal.
After walking more than ten steps, Lin Xiaosu's eyes lit up: "Look!"
Zhou Mei moved closer and stared at a thorn under the footprints.
This thorn is called a dog thorn, and it is the hardest. When a bare foot stepped on it, three thorns were broken off.
"Walking on thorns without hurting your feet is irrefutable proof!" Lin Xiaosu said: "Probably only people with special genes can have such thick skin tissue."
Zhou Mei's heart skipped a beat, she took out a plastic bag and put the thorns in it.
Although this man had thick skin and did not leave any blood stains on this thorn, genetic tissue is a very wonderful thing. As long as it is touched, there will always be residue. The genetic tissue extracted from it is also an integral part of the evidence chain. .
In front of an ancient tree, Lin Xiaosu closed his logic loop...
The barefoot man put on shoes in front of the old tree.
What does it mean?
It means that he put his shoes in the tree hole in advance.
In fact, he could see clearly by looking back in time and space...
Zhou Mei also has a closed loop of logic in her mind. Although she does not have Lin Xiaosu's magical powers to solve crimes, she is a police officer and has handled more than one case...
Hidden shoes in a tree hole, step on thorns with bare feet, transform when crossing a river, lead people astray after killing someone, return to the stream to regain his true form, return to the tree hole to put on shoes, get on the road above, and be submerged in the vast sea of people.
Could this be the entire crime chain of the real murderer?
Go up from the shore, get on the road above, and go down the simple road until you reach the front of a farmhouse.
This farmhouse is called "Chunshui Villa".
The land ten miles above is called Bishui Villa, which is called Chunshui Villa.
Although it is a follow-up industry, the business of Chunshui Villa is quite good.
The key is that its geographical location is quite good. It has Tashan Mountain in the back and faces the end of Tashan Lake. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers. City people like it.
Lin Xiaosu entered Chunshui Villa. There were already a lot of people in Chunshui Villa at this time. There were many cars parked on the large platform outside, and there were people sitting in several pavilions.
Smoking, eating melon seeds, drinking tea, playing on the swing...
Several children are running around...
Lin Xiaosu and Zhou Mei came over and were greeted by a middle-aged waiter: "Do you want to eat or stay?"
"Eat!" Lin Xiaosu said.
It was almost lunch time at this time. They ordered two plates of food and then sat at the table to wait for their meals.
Zhou Mei poured a cup of tea, put her lips close to the cup, and said in a low voice: "Did you find anything?"
Lin Xiaosu said: "Yes."
Zhou Mei swayed the teacup in her hand...
"Don't get excited, eat with peace of mind first, and then formulate a plan of action after lunch."
Zhou Mei couldn't get enough of this meal.
After a few pulls, she watched Lin Xiaosu count the rice grains slowly.
Lin Xiaosu smiled: "I didn't mean to whet your appetite."
"Then what do you mean?"
"I want to wait for Detective He..."
"Waiting for him? Do you think he should be able to find him here?"
"Logically speaking, as the first detective, he should be able to discover the doubts we just discovered."
"This is not necessarily true. Human thinking has inertia. He will identify the murderer as a strange beast at the first step. Under the guidance of his subconscious mind, he will deviate consciously or unconsciously, and will naturally ignore the traces of people..."< br>
"That's true!" Lin Xiaosu said: "No wait! I will arrange an action plan..."
