Chapter 593 Another tragic case of family annihilation!
Chapter 593 Another tragic case of annihilation of a whole family!
"Dingling! Dingling! Dingling!"
At about 3:00 p.m., the phone in Jia Dongming's office suddenly rang. Jia Dongming picked up the receiver and politely asked, "Hello! I'm Jia Dongming. Who is this?"
"Deputy Captain Jia! I'm Zhou Hua. I just received a call from the Xicheng District Branch. A family in Xicheng District was also wiped out. According to the results of the forensic examination, this family member should have died three days ago. The manner of death of the deceased is very similar to that of the Jin family." Just as Jia Dongming finished his inquiry, Zhou Hua's anxious voice of reporting came over the phone.
After hearing Zhou Hua's report, Jia Dongming learned that a family massacre had also occurred in Xicheng District. He was shocked and asked Zhou Hua, "Zhou Hua! You said that the family massacre in Xicheng District happened three days ago. Why didn't we hear any news about it?"
When Zhou Hua heard Jia Dongming's question and thought of the news he had just received, he quickly reported to Jia Dongming: "Deputy Captain Jia! The situation is like this. After this family was killed, because the door of the house was closed, outsiders had no idea that a murder had occurred. It was not until noon today when someone went to visit this family that they discovered that the whole family had been killed."
After hearing Zhou Hua's introduction, Jia Dongming immediately asked Zhou Hua, "Zhou Hua! Where is the crime scene in Xicheng District? Let's go to the crime scene and take a look."
When Zhou Hua heard Jia Dongming's question, he immediately reported to him, "Deputy Captain Jia! The crime scene is on Zaolinqian Street in Xicheng District. I'm riding a sidecar to pick you up at the steel mill. I'll be there in about ten minutes."
When Jia Dongming heard Zhou Hua's answer, he immediately said to Zhou Hua: "Zhou Hua! I'll wait for you at the gate of the steel mill now."
Ten minutes later, Zhou Hua arrived at the gate of the steel mill on a sidecar. When Jia Dongming saw Zhou Hua coming, he got into the sidecar without saying a word and asked Zhou Hua, "Zhou Hua! Did the Xicheng Branch tell you the name of the deceased? And what industry the deceased was engaged in?"
Zhou Hua heard Jia Dongming's question and answered while riding his sidecar, "Deputy Captain Jia! The Xicheng Branch didn't give any details about the deceased, but I heard from the comrades of the Xicheng Branch's Serious Crime Squad that the deceased was drugged, tied to a pillar by the murderer, and then splashed with water to wake him up. In the end, he was subjected to extremely cruel torture by the murderer and died from excessive blood loss."
Twenty minutes later, the three-wheeled vehicle stopped beside a small courtyard. Although a cordon had been set up at the entrance of the courtyard, there were still many curious people surrounding the cordon and pointing and talking inside the courtyard.
When Jia Dongming and Zhou Hua walked to the gate of the small courtyard, they smelled a pungent smell of blood. Jia Dongming couldn't help but mutter to himself: "This smell of blood is so strong, why didn't anyone smell it before?"
"Deputy Captain Zhou! Who is this comrade? Why have I never seen him before?" Just as Jia Dongming was muttering to himself, a middle-aged man saw the unfamiliar Jia Dongming and asked Zhou Hua with curiosity.
When Zhou Hua heard the middle-aged man's question, he immediately introduced him to the middle-aged man: "Captain Liu! Let me introduce you. This is Comrade Jia Dongming, the deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of our Dongcheng Branch. Deputy Captain Jia is also the director of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, so you have never met him."
After Zhou Hua introduced this, he immediately introduced Jia Dongming: "Deputy Captain Jia! This is Captain Liu Guozhu of the Serious Crime Squad of the Xicheng Branch."
When Liu Guozhu heard Zhou Hua's introduction, he immediately stretched out his hands, shook Jia Dongming's hands vigorously, and greeted Jia Dongming politely: "Director Jia! Hello! Hello! I have heard of your great name for a long time, and today I finally meet you in person."
Hearing Liu Guozhu's warm greeting, Jia Dongming smiled and shook hands with Liu Guozhu, saying to him in a very cordial tone: "Captain Liu! Hello! Nice to meet you." After seeing Jia Dongming greet Liu Guozhu, Zhou Hua immediately asked Liu Guozhu: "Captain Liu! I received your call before, but I was so busy rushing over to take a look that I forgot to ask you about the situation. What is the name of the owner of this yard? What industry is he in? How many people were killed in total? The smell of blood is so strong here, why was it discovered today?"
When Liu Guozhu heard Zhou Hua's question, he immediately introduced them to Jia Dongming and Zhou Hua: "Director Jia! Deputy Captain Zhou! The owner of this courtyard is called Guan Yunshan. He opened a shop in Panjiayuan in the early days, specializing in the sale of antiques. Later, due to policy reasons, the shop was closed. However, we suspect that although You Ximing closed the shop, he is still engaged in this business behind the scenes."
"Also, the bloody smell here is so strong. Why hasn't it been discovered before? It's mainly because someone dumped a lot of garbage in the yard. The stench in the yard covered up the smell of blood. If it weren't for the people in the neighboring yard who couldn't stand the stench and ran to Guan's house to find out what was going on, probably no one would have known that the Guan family had been wiped out."
After hearing Liu Guozhu's introduction, Jia Dongming asked Liu Guozhu in a serious tone, "Captain Liu! Do you have shoe covers and gloves? We want to go to the scene and take a look."
When Liu Guozhu heard Jia Dongming's request, he immediately told the police officer on guard: "Xiao Zheng! Hurry up and get a pair of gloves and shoe covers for Director Jia and Deputy Captain Zhou."
After putting on shoe covers, Jia Dongming put on gloves and walked towards the yard.
When he entered the yard, Jia Dongming saw a corpse tied to a pillar. Two forensic doctors were standing in front of the corpse, examining it.
Jia Dongming looked solemnly at the body in front of him, which was tied to a pillar and kneeling. There was almost no intact skin on the body except on the face. There was a big cut on the lower abdomen, and the body's organs were flowing out of the cut. The bloody scene could only be described as extremely bloody.
"What kind of deep hatred did the murderer have with the deceased to make his methods so cruel? Compared with this corpse, the torture Kim Byung-man suffered before his death was nothing." Zhou Hua frowned as he looked at the bloody scene in front of him, and couldn't help muttering to himself.
Jia Dongming looked at the wounded corpse in front of him, but his eyes were fixed on the pendant on the corpse's neck. He said to Liu Guozhu in a serious tone: "Captain Liu! The massacre of a family in your Xicheng District can be combined with the massacre of a family in our Dongcheng District, because these two cases should have been committed by the same murderer."
When Liu Guozhu heard what Jia Dongming said, he showed a surprised expression on his face and asked Jia Dongming curiously: "Director Jia! Although all seven members of the Guan family were killed, the way Guan Yunshan died was completely different from the way Jin Bingwan in your Dongcheng District died. How can you think that these two cases were committed by the same murderer?"
When Jia Dongming heard Liu Guozhu's question, he stared at the tomb-grabbing talisman on Guan Yunshan's neck and answered in a very serious tone: "Captain Liu! The reason why I proposed the idea of merging the cases is mainly because of the tomb-grabbing talisman on Guan Yunshan's neck."
"Gold-touching talisman? Director Jia! Could this pendant you are talking about be the gold-touching talisman that symbolizes the gold-touching lieutenant?" When Liu Guozhu heard Jia Dongming's answer, an expression of surprise appeared on his face, and he asked Jia Dongming curiously.
When Jia Dongming heard Liu Guozhu's question, he nodded very affirmatively and replied, "Captain Liu! You guessed it right. It is the tomb-grabbing talisman used by tomb-grabbing lieutenants to ward off evil spirits. The owner of the tragic case in our Dongcheng District also wore a tomb-grabbing talisman around his neck."
