Chapter 340 The missing little boy and the murdered nanny (Thanks to the old friend for the reward)

"Can you take me to see the scene again?" Jack asked.

Russell took out a flashlight and raised his chin towards the door of the villa, "Julie and I will accompany you. After this, we will talk to the victim's father together."

While talking, the three of them walked into the villa and walked up to the second floor. Sister Julie Finn took the initiative to introduce what they had learned before.

"The victim is a five-year-old boy named Harper Riordan. Also missing is the child's nanny, Shelby Burress."

"This is a single-parent family. The person who reported the crime was the child's father, TC Riordan. According to him, he had already fallen asleep when the nanny was putting the child to sleep."

"What's the time?" Jack asked using his cell phone as a flashlight, illuminating the luxurious decorations in the house on the stairs.

"According to the father, the child should be put to bed by the nanny at 10 o'clock, and it was about 11:30 when he woke up to check on the child."

After Russell finished speaking, he took out a flashlight and handed it to Jack, "Now the mobile phone battery is our only lifeline, so don't waste it."

Jack obediently turned off the flashlight mode of his mobile phone. As a person from the Death Star who would die when the battery was low, his mobile phone battery remained above 80% all year round. Not only was the charging cable always plugged in in the car, but there was also a large-capacity power bank in his work bag.

Climbing up the stairs to the second floor, passing through a long corridor and several rooms, the three of them arrived at the innermost part.

"This is the nanny's room. Next to it is the children's bedroom. Pay attention to the evidence marks on the ground."

As they spoke, the two stood at the door of the children's bedroom, lighting up Jack with a flashlight, and motioned for him to go in and check alone.

Jack carefully avoided the small yellow plastic sign with numbers printed on the ground and walked between the window and the small bed. There were wet blood stains everywhere.

There were blood drops dripping vertically on the floor, and there were splashes of blood on the walls and ceiling. There were even spurts of blood on the small pillows on the bed and the sheets beside them.

Jack made a few poses beside the bed, turned around and asked, "Hasn't the nanny's body been found yet?"

Russell did not speak, but Julie Finn raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Two lab partners are searching for suspicious traces around the house, but how do you know the nanny is dead?"

Jack raised his flashlight, feeling that this kind of question was a bit childish. Not to mention that he had forensic skills that could be upgraded to a proficient level in no time, even ordinary people who often watch crime-solving American TV series could answer it.

"The blood drops on the ceiling are basically in the shape of large round drops. These are typical splashes from broken arteries, rather than from the force of the knife wielded during the murder. Well, it's possible that these are the ones on the wall. "

Then he rubbed one foot on the floor and said, "There should have been a carpet or something like this here originally. There is a clear dividing line between old and new on the floor. There are blood stains on one side of the dividing line but not on the other side. This means that the carpet is It was taken away after the incident.”

"So what's the purpose of a rug? Isn't it to wrap a body?"

After speaking, Jack stood beside the bed, holding his left hand in a false embrace, as if he was controlling someone. Then he quickly made a few stabbing movements with his right hand. When he waved his arm, he deliberately moved in the same direction as the blood stains thrown up on the wall.

"There is no need to use this method to deal with a five-year-old child. The victim is most likely the nanny. Although the blood left at the scene is not fatal, judging from the way the blood spattered, the possibility of the victim surviving is almost It’s zero.”

Julie Finn also walked into the room and pointed the flashlight at the bedside. There was some white residue there, like what was left after some liquid evaporated.

"We found some unknown white crystals here, and also found some metal debris on the bed. They had all been packed and sent to the laboratory before, but in this situation, God knows how long it will take to find the answer."

Jack nodded to express his understanding while observing the situation on the windowsill and outside the window.

"So you found BAU. This kind of semi-floor-to-ceiling window is very heavy and difficult to open from the outside. The floating dust on the window sill is still there.

Considering that so many evidences were left at the scene, and there were even bloody fingerprints on the bedside, it showed that the murderer was not professional enough and basically ruled out the possibility of breaking in from outside. "

"Move the body and take away the children. I personally believe that the murderer has at least one accomplice. So, have you investigated the people inside the villa?"

Russell shook his head, "I just had a brief chat with Hubble's father TC. The child's mother passed away five years ago. Detective Brace is still investigating the situation of the servants in the villa, including investigating the nanny Shelby Brace. background."

"The laboratory is overcoming the difficulty of losing the equipment. DNA cannot be done for sure, but chemical reagents can be used to identify the blood type of those blood stains - Hubble's father provided his fingerprints and blood samples, as well as a band-aid used by his child.

In addition, we are still trying to compare fingerprints at the scene with the naked eye. "

"Wow, that's a big project." Jack sighed with emotion and continued to ask, "Can we rule out the suspicion of the child's father?"

The two shook their heads at the same time, and Julie Finn glanced at Russell, "I think he is very suspicious. He said he just fell asleep in the small room and didn't hear anything.

But when we met him, he was wearing evening clothes. Of course, his explanation was that he had originally planned to go out tonight, but later changed his mind. "

Sure enough, Russell immediately retorted, "Having said that, don't jump to conclusions too early."

Julie Finn seemed very confident, "You know, more than two hours have passed now. If it is a kidnapper, no one has called TC Riordan to negotiate terms."

"I know that he is a little suspicious, but I think this case may not go according to common sense. This is why I called Rossi. Anyway, he still owes me a lot of favors."

Russell said this, but his eyes looked at Jack, as if he is very optimistic about you, young man, don't let me down.

Jack didn't bother to wonder if these two aunts and uncles were acting to trick him. Since he was here, and it was obvious that there was a long-term cooperative relationship between CSI and BAU, of course he had to try his best.

It is unlikely that this kind of kidnapping case would require risking one's life. It is nothing more than using your brain. You have to worry about it, so you don't want to coerce these highly intelligent researchers.

Just as the three of them returned to the corridor and were about to go downstairs, there was a sound of hurried footsteps on the wooden stairs. Jack curiously pointed the flashlight at the ground in the direction of the visitor. Soon, a big and honest-looking head appeared. staircase.

"D.B., we found the nanny's body in the garden."

Thanks to my old friend, the leader, for the reward, for the extra update, haha. I'll try my best to see if I can dig out one more chapter tonight.
