Chapter 47 The Eleventh Case: The Deadly String (1)

In early autumn, the weather has become much cooler. Tianyang is a northern city. After the hottest three hours at noon, the temperature dropped quickly. However, the atmosphere at the Tianyang University Conservatory of Music was warm.

A concert is being held in the lecture hall of the School of Music. It was initiated by Professor Bai Zhiqin, the dean of the School of Music, and invited the young pianist Qi Mu to hold a concert that combines appreciation, artistry and education. Professor Bai Zhiqin is Qi Mu's first teacher.

, Professor Bai Zhiqin invited his former

The disciple gave a performance and display to the students of the Conservatory of Music, hoping that the students could broaden their horizons and achieve greater gains. As a disciple of Professor Bai and a Tianyang person, Qi Mu agreed with a grateful heart, otherwise he would be very

It is difficult to find time to perform at an ordinary university in a northern prefecture-level city.

The climax of the concert was when Qi Mu performed the classic piece "Butterfly Lovers" with Li Ruman, a graduate student from the School of Music. This arrangement was also facilitated by Professor Bai. Li Ruman is Professor Bai's graduate student, specializing in violin. The ensemble of new and old disciples heralded

Professor Bai's life of Tao Li Fangfei. Huang Yiwei is

Qi Mu's high school classmates, invited by Qi Mu, were also sitting in the audience. Huang Yiwei couldn't help but sigh, the piano and violin ensemble were so perfect, it was truly a masterpiece in the world! Qi Mu lived up to his reputation as a young pianist, and the little-known pianist

Li Ruman is also very artistic and completely in front of Qi Mu.

Not falling behind. He clearly felt that the arrangement of the performance seemed more like Li Ruman being the protagonist, and Qi Mu was more like accompanying her. Many domestic and foreign media were also present at the scene, so Li Ruman was bound to be

Pushed to a bigger stage. He knew that if it weren't for Professor Bai's arrangement,

Qi Mu, who has always been aloof and arrogant, will definitely not play in a duet with Li Ruman and will not let a newcomer rise to the top on his own. During the performance, the two looked at each other frequently, smiling and nodding from time to time. Huang Yiwei felt that these two people performed together for him.

A strange feeling, pleasing to the eye but unusual.

While Huang Yiwei was thinking about it, the performance was over. Thunderous applause broke out at the scene. Qi Mu and Li Ruman joined hands on the stage to express their thanks. Media from all walks of life rushed to the stage and asked various questions in a hurry.

It was not until an hour later that Huang Yiwei had the opportunity to talk to Qi Mu. He congratulated Qi Mu: "Congratulations, old classmate! The performance is very exciting, I enjoy it very much, I like it very much!"

Qi Mu said: "Thank you, old classmate!" The two held hands together. He said: "Yiwei, you are so good at talking now! I didn't expect you would really come."

Huang Yiwei said: "Can I not come? I want to hear you, an artist, perform."

Qi Mu said: "Can you stop talking about this, detective! Is it interesting for us to compliment each other?"

Huang Yiwei said: "In high school, we were very different and lonely. We were each other's only friends. Later, you studied music and I studied computers. We haven't seen each other for many years."

Qi Mu smiled and said: "You still remember these. How about it, detective? Are there no cases recently?"

Huang Yiwei said: "Whether there is a case or not, I have to give you face."

Qi Mu said: "Thank you then."

Huang Yiwei asked curiously: "Who is that girl? You quite gave her face."

Qi Mu looked back at Li Ruman, who was sitting on the edge of the stage and rested: "She is a student of Professor Bai Zhiqin. You know that I also studied with Teacher Bai when I was a child. I am her senior brother. Teacher Bai wants us to cooperate. We

We’ve met several times.”

Huang Yiwei became even more confused and asked: "Isn't she your girlfriend or lover?"

Qi Mu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "No. I'm married. My wife's name is Tang Yingwen. She is a music teacher."

Huang Yiwei quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I saw how well you guys cooperated, so I thought it was - I was abrupt, I'm sorry."

Qi Mu laughed loudly: "Where are you thinking? If so, it was in the works we performed together. At that time, we might really be Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. Works in which we put our own emotional experience are good works.

It is also the highest realm of art.”

Huang Yiwei said in admiration: "I saw it. It's really great! Do you have time to have dinner together in the evening?"

Qi Mu was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Yiwei. I -"

Huang Yiwei understood: "It doesn't matter. You are busy first, and we will make an appointment when we have a chance."

Qi Mu said: "After today, I will call you." As he said that, he made a phone call gesture.

Huang Yiwei said: "Okay. I'll wait for your call. I'll leave first while you're busy." The two shook hands and said goodbye.

The next day, Huang Yiwei didn't wait for Qi Mu's call. In the evening, Huang Yiwei called Qi Mu, but unfortunately no one answered. On the morning of the third day, he called several more times, but the phone was turned off.

.Huang Yiwei felt that being an artist was not free and he could not arrange his own life. Just when he was sighing secretly, another case came up.

The crime scene was in Tianyang Huafu, which is a high-end villa area. The people who lived there were either rich or noble. The crime scene was in a two-story villa, and the victim died in the bedroom on the first floor. Yan Gang took

The criminal investigators have already arrived and are visiting the neighbors. Li Jianqiang is talking to the property manager.

Captain Yan was listening to the young man who reported the case explain the situation: "I am Tian Guodong, Teacher Qi Mu's assistant. The day before yesterday, Teacher Qi Mu held a concert at Tianyang University. When the event ended, it was about six o'clock in the evening. Six o'clock in the evening

Duo, Teacher Qi Mu and Musicology

Professor Bai Zhiqin, the dean of the institute, had dinner together. Also present at the time were Li Ruman, who performed with Teacher Qi Mu, Li Ruman’s boyfriend, and me, a total of five people. We ate until about 8 p.m. Teacher Qi Mu and I

We took a taxi back to Tianyang Huafu Villa."

Team Yan asked: "Why do you remember the time so clearly?"

Tian Guodong said: "I am an assistant and I must clearly control my time, otherwise it will delay Teacher Qi Mu's work. He is very punctual and never wants anyone to break his schedule or waste his time."

"Okay, I understand." Captain Yan said, "Then what?"

Tian Guodong said: "After Teacher Qi Mu came home, I took a taxi back to the hotel alone."

Captain Yan asked: "Does Qi Mu have a full-time driver?"

Tian Guodong said: "No. Although Teacher Qi Mu is very famous, he doesn't care about ostentation. Not only does he not have a full-time driver, but I, as an assistant, only help him with some liaison matters. He has no airs and is very good to me. He

Very self-disciplined, even looking for an assistant

He found a tough guy like me. He had a bad relationship with his lover and had been separated for a long time, but he was still afraid of others gossiping, so he found a man as his assistant. He was a very good person, but it was a pity that he died like this.

Already." His face was full of frustration and sadness.

Captain Yan said: "How did you find out that he was dead?"

Tian Guodong said: "When we separated that night, he said that he had to rest the next day and not to disturb him. He said that I could arrange my own itinerary and that he had personal matters to attend to. He also recommended some tourist attractions in Tianyang City to me.

."

"Has he ever said what he wants to do?" Captain Yan asked.

Tian Guodong thought for a while and said: "He didn't say it, but at the end of the activity, he met his old classmates. I guess he had dinner with his old classmates the next day and didn't want to be disturbed. Teacher Qi Mu especially likes silence.

"

Team Yan asked: "How did you know something happened to Qi Mu?"

Tian Guodong said: "I didn't disturb him yesterday. As agreed, I called him at 8:30 this morning. But his mobile phone was turned off. At first, I thought he hadn't gotten up. Around 10:00 in the morning, I called him again.

I tried it once and found that it was still shut down.

I became anxious because he kept his phone on 24 hours a day. I found his home in Tianyang Huafu and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded. So, I called the property management company and forced the door open, only to find out

He was lying on the bed and there was a lot of blood on the ground. I reported the crime."

Team Yan left Tian Guodong’s contact information and had his DNA, fingerprints and footprints collected. Team Yan asked Li Jianqiang to contact Qi Mu’s wife immediately to find out the situation, and he walked into the villa himself.

Cheng Liya and Dai Jiaxing have completed the autopsy. The body was lying on the bed. There were two wounds on the neck, one long and thin, and the other thick and short. The long and thin wounds cut off the esophagus, trachea and arteries. The wounds were mainly distributed under the larynx and extended to

Both sides of the neck. Thick and short

The wound is located on the left side of the neck. The wound is about 5 cm long, deep in front and shallow in back. The murderer should be holding a knife in his right hand. The thickness of the weapon causing the two wounds is inconsistent and it should not be the same murder weapon. No resistance injuries were found on the arms of the corpse.

, coercion injuries and restraint injuries.

Dai Jiaxing said: "These two wounds are very strange. They are not the same murder weapon. Why did the murderer use two murder weapons to commit the crime? Doesn't he find it troublesome?"

Cheng Liya said: "Judging from the body itself, the wounds were caused by two murder weapons. It is difficult to say whether they are the same murderer."

Dai Jiaxing said: "The slender wound is like a cut caused by a thin wire strangulation, and the thick and short wound is like a sharp single-edged knife." Cheng Liya nodded.

Judging from the traces of blood spatter, there are two main places. One is outside the bathroom door, which is in an arc-shaped splash shape. From this, we can infer the location where the deceased was killed. The splattered blood has traces of being dragged and wiped.

, should be traces of the murderer dragging the body. The blood stains were stepped on

After stepping on it, the footprints were relatively clear. Judging from the shoe size, it was men's size 42. The other spot was on the bed. Blood flowed down the right side of the neck to the left side of the neck. A small amount of blood spattered on the quilt and pillow.

There was also a lot of blood stains. All the blood stains at the scene had dried up.

Cheng Liya carefully observed the corpse: "The rigor mortis in the large joints and mandible has begun to ease, the corpse spots are completely fixed, and do not fade with acupressure. The cornea is completely turbid, the pupils cannot be seen, and green spots of decay appear. The time of death is 30-40 hours."

"

Captain Yan, who had just entered the room, asked: "Is the death time range too large? This is not like you, Chengzi."

Cheng Liya glanced at him: "To be specific, about 35 hours. The specific time will not be determined until after the autopsy."

Dai Jiaxing used a probe to measure the depth of the two wounds and told Team Yan: "There are two wounds. The deepest part of the long and thin wound is about 3 cm, and the deepest part of the thick and short wound is only 1 cm."

Pi Peng said: "Four people's footprints were found at the scene, three men and one woman. The female footprints were in high heels. The female footprints were mainly distributed in the living room on the first floor, the second floor, the stairs and the bedroom on the second floor. The footprints of the deceased were mainly distributed on the first floor.

The living room on the first floor and the bedroom on the first floor. In addition, traces of sweat were found on the wall outside the bathroom.

The hair and dander of a man and a woman were found on the beds in the bedrooms on the first and second floors. As for whether they are the same man and woman, further testing is needed. The door lock is a fingerprint lock with a complete fingerprint on it. Intel has removed it

Remove the chip from the door lock and take it back for testing to see if you can find any other clues."

At this time, Peng Ying had cracked the deceased's mobile phone and was suddenly shocked. He called Captain Yan over, pointed at the deceased's mobile phone and said: "Captain Yan, look."
