Chapter 505 Horrible Death Photos
Yuan Shan and Ye shouted.
The shouting made Lin Xinyi's heart twitch.
She shouted, Mio Kuroe's face turned pale.
The shouts even made the melon-eating tourists excited.
They could no longer suppress their curiosity and rushed to the front one after another, crowded in front of the window, and peeked inside:
There is indeed something on the floor!
Not a corpse.
But it's still shocking.
Because it was a line of ferocious blood words:
“The fire of sin shall be paid with blood.”
This sentence sounds strange to read, but paired with the scarlet and dazzling red color, it really has the effect of sending chills down the spine.
These superstitious tourists who were watching the excitement shivered with fear.
And Kuroe Naoko was so frightened that she fell into a trance, her eyes were blurred, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead:
"Master Mermaid, Master Mermaid."
"The mermaid is really here to take revenge!"
This reaction seems a bit extreme.
But considering that she was originally a young islander who grew up in a superstitious environment, it is understandable that she would be so afraid of the "Mermaid".
More importantly, the scary thing on the floor at the scene was not just the "bloody words".
Under the bloody words, there was a color photo.
What was photographed was a corpse.
Even through the window, everyone can clearly see:
The person in the photo
"It's Shaori, it's Shaori!"
"Saori was killed by the mermaid!!"
Kuroe Naoko shouted with a pale face.
Yes, this is the death photo of Kadowaki Saori.
She was already dead in the photo.
Kadowaki Saori was seen leaning gently on a chair, with her eyes open, her mouth closed, and her head slightly tilted.
The photo didn't capture her face clearly, but it captured her extremely pale complexion.
This sickly pale complexion.
It is caused by excessive blood loss.
The lower body of this corpse is the focus of the overall composition of this death photo, and it is the most shocking part of the entire photo:
It was a pair of legs that had been sawed off.
Kadowaki Saori was sitting on a chair, her thighs were still there, but her calves were missing.
The photo did not directly capture the sawed-off section of her calf, but people could still see her trousers with obvious saw marks and uneven edges.
The pants legs were just like her calves, completely disappearing from the knee down.
The gushing blood dyed the remaining trousers, the chair under her body, and even the ground under her broken leg into scarlet.
There were shocking splatters of blood on the legs of the chair.
There was a vast pool of blood on the ground.
And further away in the picture, you can also see the blood-stained ground from
I saw two calves still wearing pants and shoes. It was suspected that they had been sawed off by the murderer and thrown into the distance.
As for the cause of death of Kadowaki Saori, it is now clear:
It was because her legs were cut off by the murderer that she bled to death.
The murderer also deliberately put her in this sitting position with her legs together, letting her sit on top of the pool of blood.
Without calves, Kadowaki Saori looks like a weird "mermaid".
"This this"
This picture is too cruel.
Even if it was just a photo, Yuanshan and Ms. Ye were frightened and nervous:
"This murderer is just a lunatic!"
The murderer was so vicious that he no longer looked like a normal person.
He deliberately killed someone in such a cruel way, took a photo of the shocking scene, and left it in the victim's room.
This seems to be due to some kind of abnormal psychology.
It seemed like he was deliberately provoking the police.
Or maybe he wanted to deliberately create panic - just look at the horrified and dazed expressions of everyone present, and you will know that if this is the murderer's purpose, he will definitely be satisfied with the effect.
People weren't just scared.
And he also spontaneously connected the matter with metaphysics:
"It was Lord Mermaid who killed this girl!"
"Master Lin, what should we do now?"
These frightened guys all turned their attention to Lin Xinyi.
Especially Kadowaki Saori’s good friend, Kuroe Naoko.
She held Lin Xinyi's arm tightly and asked with a trembling voice:
"Master Lin, Master Mermaid, she won't kill anyone again, right?"
"." Lin Xinyi was speechless.
Kuroe Naoko was even more panicked: "You, there's nothing you can do?"
"have."
"What? Master, say it."
"Let everyone disperse, and then..."
"Then?"
"Call the police."
Lin Xinyi spent a lot of effort to finally drive away those entangled superstitious tourists with the excuse that staying here would lead to bad luck.
The police call was also made.
But it doesn't work.
There is no police station on the American island, and the police can only report to the Fukui Prefectural Police on the other side of the sea.
It will take a long time until the Fukui Prefecture police arrive by boat.
For now, the investigation can only rely on Lin Xinyi himself.
He didn't waste any time, and immediately took out the gloves, shoe covers, and hair covers from the forensic investigation box he carried with him, and then carefully climbed into the room through the window.
Hattori Heiji also changed his clothes and came in to investigate.
Except for the bloody words and photos on the floor, everything in the room was as usual.
This is obviously not the scene of the first crime.
"The murderer probably killed Miss Saori somewhere else, took the photos, and then came back here and left a bloody note."
"This shows that the murderer was familiar with the situation in the victim's home."
"The other party knew how to break into Miss Saori's room, and knew the routine of Miss Saori's father when he went out. He could accurately grasp the timing and leave bloody words calmly without anyone noticing."
Hattori Heiji briefly analyzed it.
"Yeah." Lin Xin nodded in agreement, but his expression was not relaxed: "But this can't help us narrow the scope too much."
"Saori's father is an alcoholic, and it is well known on the American island."
"And I also observed along the way that most of the people on the island don't close their doors at night and don't pay attention to closing the doors and windows on the first floor."
"It's not difficult for anyone to break into the scene and leave bloody writing."
With that said, Lin Xinyi quietly leaned down again.
While he picked up the death photo, he carefully stretched out his fingers and gently wiped the bloody words on the floor.
Get closer and take a whiff:
"It's not written in blood, it's written in red paint."
"The paint is completely dry, and there's still a layer of dust on it—"
"This thing was not written recently. It has been written for at least more than a day."
"What?" Hattori Heiji was slightly startled:
The murderer had left such eye-catching words in blood on this room for at least a day.
This shows that Kadowaki Saori, who has been missing for three days, was probably killed three days ago.
And her father, who lives in the same house with her, hasn't noticed until now?
"Drunkard, there's nothing you can do about it."
Lin Xinyi commented with some disgust:
"That kind of waste who uses alcohol to anesthetize himself all day long has probably forgotten that he is still a father."
"Moreover, Miss Saori's bedroom door was always closed. If her father did not enter his daughter's room after returning home, it would be normal for him to find no bloody words or photos for three days."
"Alas." Hattori Heiji sighed softly at this.
But he quickly suppressed his emotions and continued to investigate the room:
"Wallet, driver's license, passport, bank card."
"These things are in the bedside table."
"The suitcase is still in the closet, and there seems to be no shortage of clothes."
"It seems that Miss Saori did not run away from home when she was killed, let alone go out."
"While she was living on the island, someone deceived her into a secret place and brutally killed her."
"And this place should be not far from her home, otherwise she wouldn't even bring her wallet."
Unconsciously, criminal profiling becomes increasingly detailed:
The acquaintance may live not far away, knows the situation of Saori's family, and is most likely a resident of the island.
Judging from the content left on the blood letter and his extremely cruel methods, the murderer may have had some deep grudge against the deceased.
Hattori Heiji spoke out his analysis in an orderly manner.
But Lin Xinyi didn't listen very carefully.
He just stared at the bloody death photo as if in a daze.
"What's wrong, Mr. Lin?"
Hattori Heiji vaguely realized something:
"Are there any clues in this photo?"
Lin Xinyi did not answer directly, but his expression was very strange.
He stared at the photo and struggled for a long time before handing it to Hattori Heiji:
"Heiji, tell me:"
"What can you tell from this photo?"
"Oh?" Hattori Heiji became interested: "Teacher, do you want to test me?"
"Okay, let me see."
He took the death photo and looked at it carefully.
The conclusion is quickly drawn:
"There were large splatters of blood on the legs of the chair."
"It means this is the first scene of the crime."
"Miss Kadowaki Saori was sitting on this chair, and her legs were sawed off alive."
Hattori Heiji soon came to a cruel truth.
"Yeah." Lin Xinyi didn't comment directly, but just nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"One more thing is the pool of blood under Miss Saori."
"The pool of blood in the photo shows no sign of coagulation."
"And I checked the weather on the American island before coming here:"
"This has a typical ocean climate, with a small temperature difference between day and night and high air humidity."
"In the past few days, the temperature on the island has been relatively cool, day and night."
"In this relatively low temperature and high humidity environment, blood coagulation will be relatively slow."
"But even so."
"Look at the complete blood in the photo with no signs of coagulation:"
"This photo was taken by the murderer within 15 minutes of Miss Saori's death at the latest."
Hattori Heiji analyzed it in great detail.
After saying that, he looked up at Lin Xinyi confidently, waiting for the teacher's sincere praise.
But Lin Xinyi shook his head:
"That's it?"
"Uh?" Hattori Heiji's face darkened: "Did I miss anything?"
"Haha." Lin Xinyi smiled: "You learn quickly, but you still lack some experience in the practical application of forensic knowledge."
"It seems that as a teacher, I still have something to teach you!"
"This" Hattori Heiji was even more curious.
He couldn't help but asked with some concern:
"Mr. Lin, what exactly did you see?"
"With such a simple photo, is there anything else I haven't noticed?"
"Yes." Lin Xin nodded: "But..."
"I'd better not say anything now."
"Why?" Hattori Heiji choked hard.
"Because." Lin Xinyi's expression became extremely troubled: "I can't be sure that my conclusion is correct."
"My guess is too weak to be true at the moment. Even if I say it now, it won't be of any help to the investigation."
"???" Hattori Heiji was confused.
"Let's go, Heiji."
Lin Xinyi sighed deeply:
"Nothing can be found here."
He gently patted Hattori Heiji on the shoulder:
"Let's find a way first and start investigating from other places."
