Having experienced the case in Haian Town, they first suspected that someone from the martial arts community had committed the crime. However, Duan Fei did not draw a conclusion so quickly. He walked around the room. It was already the dog days of summer, and the weather was sultry from morning to night.
It was unbearable, so the north and south windows in the room were always open. The murderer could easily enter the house. However, the outer wall was three meters high, so it would be a bit difficult to climb in without leaving any traces.
Duan Fei went to the small courtyard outside the house again. He carefully observed the blood stains on the ground and the traces of the struggle. He saw a little blood stains outside the house, extending from the main house to the door of the side house. Duan Fei also found an easily overlooked door on the main house door.
blurred footprints.
Duan Fei carefully observed the shape of the blood drop, and suddenly his heart moved. He looked again carefully to confirm that he had read it correctly. Then he came to the wall and followed the base of the wall. He finally found a footprint that was only about three inches long.
Obviously it cannot be left behind by the deceased or his old servant.
Seeing this small footprint, Shi Bin blurted out and exclaimed: "Could it be that the murderer is a female thief?"
"Don't jump to conclusions rashly." Duan Fei glared at him and said, "A woman with bound feet can't walk steadily. Is it possible to climb over the wall with a three-meter jump?"
Shi Bin smiled and hid aside. Duan Fei glanced at the agents, pointed at one of them and said, "You, come to me."
The policeman came to Duan Fei inexplicably. Duan Fei called the man over again, handed him a short stick, and said: "Please show me how the murderer's three knives were inserted. Pay attention to the angles."
mistake."
Seeing that the catcher was about the same height as the deceased, Wu Zuo understood what Duan Fei meant and immediately started making gestures with the short stick.
After making gestures, everyone understood that the first two of the three swords pierced the deceased's chest from bottom to top, but the third sword was from top to bottom. Duan Fei had an idea in his mind, and he suddenly turned around
Said: "Master Zhang, I already know the general profile of the murderer and the process of the murder. The murderer should be two people. One of them is short in stature, maybe a dwarf or a child. He is responsible for sneaking in and stealing. The other one is about seven feet tall and has a hole.
With strong force, the tall and strong man threw the short man into the fence. The short man broke through the window and was discovered by the owner when he was stealing. He escaped and pushed the door latch to open the door. The tall and strong man drew his sword and rushed towards the deceased. The deceased had run to
The side room next to him tried to wake up the servant to ask for help. Unexpectedly, the servant slipped out from the side door to gamble. He had to resist and fled back to the main room, and tried to close the door to stop the theft. However, the tall murderer kicked the door open and chased him into the room.
He was stabbed three times and died."
This analysis finally moved Zhang Zhengsong, and he said: "Yes, Capt. Duan is really smart, but I still have some questions. The height of the murderer has been deduced, but how did you infer the murder process as if you witnessed it?"
Duan Fei said: "I will explain this to you later. Now please order the arrest of the murderer. There are two murderers. One of them is about seven feet tall and strong. The other is at most three feet tall and is a dwarf or a child."
, both men and women are possible, they may be jugglers, at least yesterday they made a living in the square we just passed by, most likely they are performers on stilts, climbing poles, etc., usually with similar body shapes, they can make the body
Anyone who is more than three meters tall can be brought back for questioning. Also, the murderer is very cruel, so those who go to arrest him should pay attention to their own safety."
Zhang Zhengsong distributed the order, and Duan Fei explained to him: "Sir, the blood on the ground can not only tell us the route the deceased took when he escaped, but also the direction he was heading. If you carefully observe the blood stains, you should be able to find that they are all
It's facing in one direction, which means the deceased was seriously injured after leaving the side room, and a scratch on the face wouldn't bleed so much."
Zhang Zhengsong carefully looked at the blood stains on the ground, and Duan Fei added: "If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to bring a bowl of water. We dip our fingers in the water and wave it to the ground. The direction of the water dripping forward or backward will be exactly the opposite."
"I understand, Duan Captou is very observant, and he really deserves the name of the Divine Captor." After thinking about it, Zhang Zhengsong understood that this thing could be discovered with just a little attention, but he had ignored it before.
"Magic arrester? Duan Fei has just entered the palace, how dare he be called this? Master Zhang, where did you hear this?" Duan Fei opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise.
Zhang Zhengsong said with a smile: "In just one month, we solved several major cases in a row, and even solved a series of murder cases in Chun'an County, Yangzhou within three days. The name of Duan's arrest has spread throughout Yingtian. If we can successfully arrest him today,
As for the murderer in this case, I'm afraid that your name as the Godly Catcher will be known to everyone. You are well-deserved, so there is no need to be polite."
"I know what I am, I am really ashamed of myself." Duan Fei said with sweat, who wants to harm him? Is there such a name? Isn't this pushing him towards the crater of the volcano? God catches him.
How could it be so easy to be a good person?
The two of them were complimenting each other and rejecting each other, going back and forth several times. Suddenly, cheers came from outside the door, and several detectives excitedly ran in with two tied-up people, and loudly said: "Master Zhang,
Mr. Duan, the murderer has been caught. They were still performing in the square. Seeing us searching all the way, the big man dropped the wooden stake and ran away. The little man who was performing above was as nimble as a monkey. He jumped from three feet to
He jumped down from a high place but was not injured at all. The brothers rushed up together and captured them both."
Zhang Zhengsong glanced at Duan Fei with admiration and felt relieved. Maybe another person could solve this case, but not necessarily so quickly. This Duan Fei does have some abilities.
"Is anyone injured?" Duan Fei asked.
The policeman replied: "The brothers were not injured, but when the wooden pole fell, it injured two people who had to run away. They are all scratches and are not in the way."
Duan Fei nodded and said: "That's good, Mr. Zhang. This case has been solved. The next matter will be handed over to Shangyuan County. I will go back to Mr. Ma right now. Does Mr. Zhang have any other instructions?"
Zhang Zhengsong said: "Wait a moment, and I will go back with you to report to Lord Ma."
Zhang Zhengsong hurriedly asked about the case, and the father and son were very happy. They poured beans through the bamboo tube. Everything was as Duan Fei had judged.
What this father and son are doing is a unique acrobatic skill that combines pole jacking and pole climbing. The father uses his chest, shoulders, head, and back to alternately lift up the tall wooden stakes. The son climbs to the top like a monkey.
The highest part of the wooden pole makes difficult moves such as golden rooster independence, which attracts people to watch and pay money.
This acrobatic requires both parties to cooperate well and have a good sense of balance. Therefore, when the two of them are walking, the father often carries his son on his shoulders, or even puts a short pole on his shoulders to let his son stand high.
Above, this can keep a sense of balance at all times, and it is very eye-catching. Yesterday afternoon, after closing the stall, the father held his son high and strutted across the street like this. At that time, the deceased happened to be counting money in the room, and the windows were wide open because of the hot weather.
The deceased did not expect that someone could see into the house with such a high wall. As a result, the father was obsessed with money and threw his son over the wall in the middle of the night to steal money. Everything happened unstoppably.
Zhang Zhengsong handed the prisoner to the Shangyuan County magistrate who had been staying by his side, and returned to Yingtianfu Yamen with Duan Fei.
The official name of Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty was Yingtian, commonly known as Jinling. In ancient times, it was called Shangyuan County. After Taizu established Yingtian, it was bounded by the Qinhuai River. The south was still called Shangyuan County, and the north was Jiangning County. They all belonged to Ying
Tianfu has jurisdiction. This case was supposed to be handled by Shangyuan County, but it ended up being messed up by Duan Fei.
Zhang Zhengsong and Duan Fei reported to the prefect Ma Wentao together. Zhang Zhengsong praised Duan Fei a lot, but Duan Fei behaved very modestly. Ma Wentao was very happy when he heard that the case was solved in an instant, and he regarded Duan Fei with special eyes.
How can such a talent be left idle? Ma Wentao remembered that there were still some backlogged old cases in his government office that had not been solved. He then smiled and said to Duan Fei: "Master Duan, the solution of this case shows that you are indeed worthy of the name of the divine arrester. I will definitely meet you."
I would like to ask for credit from the Ministry of Civil Affairs for you, but I am afraid that it is difficult to convince the gentlemen in the Ministry of Civil Affairs with just such a case. In this way, I still have some unsolved cases on my desk, and you have also helped me deal with them. With your ability,
It's no big deal. Of course, I won't force you to solve the case quickly within a few days. I plan to transfer you and reuse you. I wonder if you are willing?" dd
