Chapter 668 The Nameless Male Corpse
After hearing this, Meng Zhe glanced at Song Jiang without saying a word, but passed him to the entrance to straighten his hair. He nodded narcissistically, then took off the coat hanging on the hanger and looked back at Song Jiang, signaling Let him go.Song Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly picked up his coat and chased after him happily.

It was late autumn at this time, and when I went out at night, I felt a bit chilly even though I was wearing a coat. Song Jiang walked with a bag of cat food in his hand and kept calling "Mimi~Mimi~". Unfortunately, he was not Xu Che. I am not proficient in cat language, so even after calling for a long time, no cat came out...

Seeing that Meng Zhe's patience was running out little by little, Song Jiang thought that he might as well put the cat food in the place where he saw the little raccoon flower yesterday. He thought that the little thing might be afraid of strangers and might wait until the two of them left. Then he ran out to eat?As a result, when he was about to put down the cat food, he saw mud and rotten leaves on the ground again with disposable tableware.

Song Jiang immediately let out a sigh and said, "Why do people still use these things to feed cats?"

After hearing this, Meng Zhe walked over and took a look, then his face darkened slightly and he said, "It smells like death..."

When Song Jiang heard this, he immediately thought of what Xu Che said yesterday, and couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Did that kid really get it right?"

Meng Zhe asked curiously, "What are you talking about?"

So Song Jiang told Meng Zhe what happened last night. After hearing this, he thought thoughtfully, "It should be a ghost who liked stray cats very much during his lifetime. Although he is dead, he still misses them every day." Come and feed the cats, but dead people definitely have no cat food to feed, so in their eyes, mud and rotten leaves become substitutes for cat food.”

After hearing this, Song Jiang couldn't help but respect this kind man who would not forget to feed stray cats even after death. But after all, these things were not for cats to eat, so he poured the contents of the bowl into the grass next to him, and then He added the cat wolf he brought inside again and put it back in its original position...

As a result, just when Song Jiang finished all this and was about to get up and leave, he saw a figure not far in front of him walking slowly forward. He recognized this figure at a glance and had seen it once yesterday, so he quickly pulled Meng Zhe chased after him... He said to Meng Zhe as he ran, "I saw the man in front of me yesterday. If I guessed correctly, he should be the ghost who comes to feed the cats with mud every day."

"Why are you chasing him!?" Meng Zhe asked with a puzzled face, but he did not stop and let Song Jiang keep dragging him forward.

Song Jiang sighed after hearing this, "I just want to tell him... I can help him feed the cat in the future, so that he can go away with peace of mind."

Although Meng Zhe was a little helpless, he did not stop Song Jiang. Unfortunately, although the figure in front seemed to move slowly, he quickly disappeared into the night, leaving Song Jiang with a look of pity, standing there with a disappointed heart... ...But this time he saw clearly what the man was wearing. He should be a young man wearing a plaid shirt.

Song Jiang neither caught up with the ghost nor saw the cat that night. When he saw Xu Che the next day, he didn't dare to look at the boy seriously, for fear that he would ask about feeding the cat.At this time, an old LCD TV hanging on the wall of the library was broadcasting the noon news, and a corpse investigation report caught Song Jiang's attention...

Corpse source investigation: On the 15th of last month, an unnamed corpse was found in a suburban waste collection station. He was male, 172cm tall, 25 to 45 years old, with short hair, wearing a black, white and gray plaid shirt and a white T-shirt. , wearing khaki casual pants, a pair of dark blue canvas shoes, a brown leather satchel on his back, and a black belt watch on his wrist. If any enthusiastic citizens provide information on the source of the corpse, a cash reward of 5 yuan will be given.

Song Jiang looked at the photos of the deceased's clothes on TV and said thoughtfully, "Why is it him..." At this time, Lao Xu, who was sitting behind the cashier, sighed and shook his head and said, "He died so young... …what a pity."

"How do you know he is a young man? Didn't it say between 25 and 45?" Song Jiang asked curiously.

After hearing this, Lao Xu pushed up the reading glasses on his face and said, "This person must not be over 30 years old..."

Song Jiang asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Although the clothes he is wearing are very common and can be worn by men in their twenties to forties, those canvas shoes cannot be worn by men over the age of 30, so this must be a man in his 20s. Young man." Lao Xu said with determination.

Song Jiang was convinced when he heard it. Although the shoes in the photo were dirty and old, you could still tell that they were a pair of dark blue Converse canvas shoes. Not to mention that he was 30 years old, Song Jiang had not had canvas shoes of this style since he graduated from university. After wearing it again, it's not that these shoes are cheap, but that wearing these shoes is a bit pretentious...

At this time, I heard Lao Xu sigh and say, "Why do I remember that this investigation was published last month? No one has come to identify the body... This child is also very pitiful. I heard that if this situation happens in If no one recognizes the body within a certain period of time, it will be cremated together and given a number."

Ever since he saw the corpse investigation, Song Jiang's mind was filled with the figure he saw last night. He always felt that this person who did not forget to feed stray cats even after death should be a warm person when he was alive. A good man, he really shouldn't end up with a miserable ending where no one recognizes his body.

Song Jiang was not actually a meddlesome person in the past. The biggest meddlesome thing in his life was Meng Zhe, which led to a series of subsequent events... But to be honest, he did not regret it. Although he lost some Things, but at the same time he also got some. At least now he is living a fulfilling life every day and does not feel lonely at all.

Early the next morning, Song Jiang called Wu Lei and inquired about the condition of the unknown body. Wu Lei happened to have done the autopsy, so he was very familiar with the situation.The body was found in a recycling bin, sandwiched between a large pile of waste cardboard and highly decomposed.According to the staff at the waste recycling station, they bundled the waste cardboard into piles and piled them in the yard. When a certain amount was reached, they would be transported away together. The waste cardboard where the body was found had at least been placed there. More than two months.

Song Jiang was surprised when he heard this and said, "The body has not turned into bones for more than two months?"

"This has something to do with the environment where the corpse is located. Those waste cardboards are relatively dry, and the corpse fluid flowing out is quickly absorbed by the surrounding cardboard. This is like the effect of clamping a leaf or a butterfly in a thick book... ..." Wu Lei explained.
