Chapter 7 - Chapter 7 The mystery ten years ago

 Officer Sun told me that this case has been ten years ago, when he was just a criminal police captain, to get to this position today, all thanks to my grandfather's help.

 My grandfather's temperament is strange, easily will not go out, but as long as he went out will certainly be able to solve the case!

 It was a starless night when he went to deliver a document to the police station under his jurisdiction. At that moment, a middle-aged man walked in, carrying a plastic bag in his hand, staggering, his face flushed, as if he was drunk, as soon as he entered the police station, he yelled that someone was trying to kill him, and then fell headlong to the ground.

 Officer Sun thought it was a drunkard at the time, but a probe breathing, people have died.

 Open the bag in his hand, found that it was filled with a human heart!

 The dead body did not have any wounds, look as if asleep, no signs of abuse, no signs of poisoning, his car is parked outside the police station, the fire is still out, the car only his own fingerprints. In other words, he drove himself to the police station to report a crime and then died here.

 The police investigated his identity and found that the man was a judge in the city!

 The hall of this case is highly important, the best criminal police around, forensic police transferred to the establishment of a task force to investigate all the clues, but a few days down nothing, even the cause of death of the deceased did not understand ...

 The task force are some bulls, we discuss the case to fight red in the face, who also do not serve anyone, check the case is also each doing their own, completely the situation of the group of dragons without a leader.

 Officer Sun was the least vocal in the group, so when he proposed to ask my grandfather to come out, he was laughed at by a group of experts, ridiculing that it would be better to go to the Taoist temple to hire a Taoist priest to look for an outdated pallbearer.

 It was at this point that the second case occurred, the deceased was a woman, a wealthy businessman who had returned from overseas.

 Like the first victim, the police found a heavy plastic bag next to her body, which also contained a heart!

 There was no progress at all in the investigation, so Officer Sun went out on a limb and brought the dossier to my grandfather. My grandfather promised to help, but when Officer Sun brought him to the criminal police brigade, he found that the two bodies had already been dissected.

 The forensic pathologist dismantled the corpses and found only one thing, the heart in the bag was the dead man's own, the murderer did not know what means, in the case of complete non-destruction of the surface of the body, the heart was taken out with precision and accuracy.

 My grandfather said at the time that he couldn't handle this case because he had a condition for working with the police, that no one would be allowed to touch the body before taking over.

 Officer Sun desperately pleaded to keep my grandfather, and my grandfather offered to go to the home of the deceased to take a look.

 The home of the deceased had been searched several times, except for the footprints and fingerprints of those criminal police officers, there is nothing, the murderer is characterized by only two words - clean!

 The motive, the killing method, the traces of the scene, everything is too clean, did not leave a single clue to the police!

 But my grandfather is not an ordinary person, he pulled all the curtains, with a bundle of mugwort lit in the house repeatedly smoked, but the wall slowly emerged eight words in blood - Jiangbei Broken Knife, hanging people to conquer the crime!

 The Jiangbei Broken Knife is probably the murderer's nickname for himself, 'hanging the people to conquer the crime' means to eradicate the evil for the majority of the lower class people! Officer Sun immediately returned to the criminal police team to retrieve the deceased information, found that the first deceased, the judge, once accepted a bribe, so that a pair of uncle and nephew of the righteousness of the crime of murder; the second deceased, the rich businesswoman, once invested in the medical industry, the use of improper means, the cost of a few tens of dollars to raise the treatment of cancer drugs to a few tens of thousands of dollars, the great patient wealth.

 The killer thought they were guilty, so he fancied himself the judge and killed them!

 That's when the third murder occurred, the dead man was a university professor who, like the first two, was also guilty of private morality, having repeatedly screwed his female graduate students and taken videos to coerce them.

 The professor died at an academic symposium where there were many reporters, and the case could no longer be hidden.

 After the media reports made a big fuss about it, there were surprisingly many people on the internet who worshipped this murderous maniac who had 'rid the people of evil', saying that the police had turned black and white upside down, and did not distinguish between good and evil, which had created enormous public pressure on the task force.

 Even if it is true that there are many injustices in society and many bad people exploiting loopholes, the law and system can be constantly improved, no one has the power to override the law, using such horrific means to sanction the wicked, committing the crime of murder, as a police officer he must be arrested!

 This time my grandfather asked for the first autopsy, Officer Sun let him into the morgue for examination despite the objections of other criminal police officers. My grandfather locked himself up in the morgue for a whole day and night, and Officer Sun stayed outside, not allowing anyone to disturb him.

 Halfway through the day, when Officer Sun went to the restroom, a trainee forensic pathologist inadvertently pushed open the door and saw a scene that scared him silly! He said that my grandfather himself and the corpse were wearing strange masks, and that he was holding the corpse up with two ropes, as if he was recreating the crime scene.

 A day later, my grandfather suddenly laughed in the morgue, and Officer Sun went in and asked him if he'd found anything. My grandfather said that this case was really difficult for him, but he couldn't find the murder method at all, and he couldn't solve the mystery of taking the heart alive.

 But he did not find nothing, he said: "The corpse told me that the murderer is one meter eight tall, thin, triangular eyes, scraper eyebrows, high nose." These were his exact words.

 The two had worked together many times, and Officer Sun naturally believed in my grandfather's skills.

 So he mobilized all the police forces under his command to conduct a carpet search in H City according to this characteristic, and although he didn't find the murderer, he found a key witness. This person is called Zhang Bao, used to be a triad gangster, killed a man, by his own means only three years in jail and got out, Zhang Bao said that he had recently seen strange people who looked like this wandering around his house, he was afraid that he would be the next target, requesting the police to provide protective custody.

 My grandfather asked to see Zhang Bao's statement, then took out the information on the first three murders to compare.

 Finally, he drew some strange symbols on a map of H City and ordered Officer Sun to search near the marked streets immediately.

 Officer Sun asked him how he could tell, my grandfather did not explain, just urged him to hurry!

 The police immediately rushed to the corresponding street and went from house to house. As expected, one of the landlords said that a man had recently rented one of his suites, and that this man looked exactly like the lookalike described by my grandfather, and also said that he had a rental contract at his home with information about the occupants.

 Officer Sun was overjoyed and hurriedly sent two police officers to go with the landlord to get the information while the others went to search the suspect's place. In the room, the police found a lot of newspaper clippings, the three dead and Zhang Bao's photo were daggered on the wall.

 Basically, it can be concluded that the one who lives here is the legendary 'Jiangbei Broken Knife'!
