Chapter 1831 Tomb Raiders

"Junior Brother Gu, this tombstone seems to have been moved." With the help of a bright flashlight, the sharp-eyed Lu Weiwei quickly noticed the strangeness of the tombstone.

Hearing Lu Weiwei's remarks, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha also came over and looked at the tombstone for a while.

After a while, Police Officer Wang said: "From the signs of the tombstone, there are indeed traces of being touched."

"No way?" The old mausoleum guard suddenly panicked, and quickly squeezed through the crowd and walked to the tombstone.

Then, he also squatted down, using the light to carefully examine the tombstone in front of him.

The tombstones in the cemetery here are generally inlaid with marble steles in the stone pits that have been dug long ago.

The ashes of the deceased will be placed in a stone pit for storage.

The marble stele is inlaid in the stone pit, and there is cement around it to seal the ashes.

But looking at it now, there are obviously many chiseled marks around the stele, and the surrounding cement has cracks, and the gaps are large.

"How could this be?" Just now he kept saying that as a mausoleum guard, he could hear clearly any movement in the cemetery.

But now it seems that this is not the case at all.

The stele obviously has traces of being pried by someone.

The uncle suddenly panicked and was a little at a loss.

Seeing this situation, Officer Wang hurriedly asked Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, when you and Lu Weiwei came over that day, did you notice this situation around the stele?"

"No." Gu Chen shook his head, and said affirmatively: "When we came that day, Ye Juanjuan's stone tablet was intact, and there were even some weeds growing around it."

"But if you look at it now, the weeds around are obviously showing signs of being pulled out, but we didn't move the tombstone until we left that day."

"Yes, I can testify to this point." After all, Lu Weiwei was also there that day, so she could also prove Gu Chen's words.

"That is to say... Ye Juanjuan's stone tablet has been tampered with?" Yuan Shasha asked in surprise, "Will Ye Juanjuan's ashes be affected?"

"Ashes?"

Hearing Yuan Shasha's remarks, everyone was stunned at the same time.

Only then did I realize that when the stele was opened, it must be aimed at the ashes inside the stele, or in other words, the person who opened the stele might be aiming at the funeral objects buried with the urn.

Gu Chen stood up, and hurriedly asked the old man who guarded the tomb, "Master, is there someone robbing the tomb here?"

"No." The old man shook his head.

"Huh?" Police Officer Wang frowned, and asked again: "Is it true or not? You have such a large cemetery, and you are the only mausoleum guard. Have you never seen a tomb robber?"

"Let me tell you, we investigated a case before, where the dead transferred money to the living."

"A young man reported to the police that his deceased father's account originally had a reimbursement of funeral expenses from his unit, plus the balance totaled more than 1 yuan."

"As a result, when the young man came to withdraw the money, he found that there were only a few dozen dollars left in change."

"After our investigation, we found out that there was a guy who directly stole funeral objects from various cemeteries, and the reporter buried a mobile phone used by the old man in the cemetery of his dead father."

Taking a deep breath, Officer Wang said again: "It's because of this phone, that guy cracked the password, and then transferred all the money in the account balance to his own account in batches. This is a real thing. .”

"That's right." Seeing Police Officer Wang mentioning the case that everyone handled back then, Lu Weiwei also confirmed and said:

"Later the tomb robber was caught by us and pleaded guilty. He told us that he would go to cemeteries in some places every day to steal funeral objects from the cemeteries."

"When we caught him, we found that this guy had already sold a lot of funeral objects. In the end, we recovered some and returned them directly to the victim."

Looking down at the old mausoleum guard squatting in front of the cemetery, Lu Weiwei said angrily:
"In this case, can you guarantee that the cemetery you are in is 100% free of grave robbers?"

"This……"

When Lu Weiwei said this, the old man who guarded the tomb immediately looked extremely embarrassed.

That's right, the police have handled similar cases, and of course they know the specific situation of the cemetery.

Seeing that it was impossible to hide the truth, the old mausoleum guard simply took the initiative to confess: "Forget it, since you mentioned this kind of thing, then I'll just say it."

"That's right, a similar situation has indeed occurred in our cemetery here."

"So when our cemetery is burying customers, we specifically explain that no valuables should be buried in the cemetery, and it is best to put an urn in it."

"And tell them things that may attract the attention of grave robbers, and remind them."

"Later, we rarely had customers here anymore, and we put some messy things in it, and the tomb robbery didn't happen for a long time."

"Then what do you say?" Yuan Shasha pointed at the pried tombstone.

The old man who guarded the tomb suddenly became speechless.

That's right, the uncle is a little confused now, and he doesn't know what's going on at all.

Gu Chen took a deep breath, looked around, and then reminded the uncle: "Master, you'd better check the tombstones around to see which other tombstones have been pried."

"If it's a tomb robber, it's definitely not just this one location that was damaged."

After being reminded by Gu Chen, the old man immediately stopped being stubborn. Dang even nodded in agreement, then picked up the flashlight and began to systematically check the surrounding tombstones.

On Gu Chen's side, everyone gathered together to discuss the follow-up work.

"Senior Brother Wang, Ye Juanjuan's tombstone has been tampered with. It is obviously not accidental. I have a hunch that this incident may have something to do with the missing Hu Fanzhen."

Gu Chen also analyzed the current situation based on the previous clues.

Officer Wang nodded silently, and said, "Look at what the old man said?"

Everyone waited at the scene for a while, and saw that the uncle was still searching everywhere.

Lu Weiwei asked directly: "Master, have you found any other tombstones that have been pried?"

"No." The old man took a flashlight, went straight to the crowd, and explained:
"I have checked many places, and there is no trace of being pried. It is strange to say, why is this place the only one that has been pried?"

"Could the ashes inside be stolen by tomb robbers?" Lu Weiwei said.

The old man was also flustered at the moment, shook his head immediately, and said helplessly: "I don't know about this, who knew that this would happen?"

"Then pry open the stele for inspection," Police Officer Wang suggested.

When the old man heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "This... This is not allowed. It is unlucky to pry open the tombstone of the deceased casually, and if the customer finds out, then you have to ask our cemetery to pay for it?"

"Besides, it's not a matter of money. Once the ashes of the client's relatives are stolen, we can't afford to pay so much money."

"Then when the tomb robbers stole before, didn't you deal with this kind of thing?" Yuan Shasha was also very curious.

But the old man waved his hand, and said a little embarrassedly: "To be honest, in fact, there have been cases where tomb robbers accidentally damaged and spilled the ashes of deceased relatives when they robbed graves."

"But for unnecessary trouble, after we found out, we cleaned up the ashes of the client's deceased relatives and repaired it again, as if nothing happened."

"After all, it is impossible for the client to pry open the stele again, so we can keep it a secret, so we have been hiding it."

"You say you..." Police Officer Wang heard the old man's words, and he said angrily: "When something like this happens, you just settle it so hastily? Is it really enough?"

"I can't help it, Comrade Police." Seeing Police Officer Wang's scolding, the old man who guarded the tomb also looked aggrieved, and said with some frustration:

"In fact, we are also afraid of trouble. After all, if we want to guarantee that the cemetery will not be damaged 100% of the cemetery, we really can't guarantee this."

"If the customer is obedient and doesn't put valuables in there, then there won't be a big problem."

"However, if some valuables were buried during the burial, and if the tomb robbers knew about it, then in all likelihood, the contents of the tombstone would definitely be dug up."

With a faint sigh, the old man who guarded the tomb was also quite helpless.

After walking back and forth twice, Gu Chen also analyzed and said: "As far as the current situation is concerned, only Ye Juanjuan's cemetery has been pried open."

"Then according to common sense, we must pry open the stele and check what's inside."

"If Ye Juanjuan's ashes are intact and there is no other special damage, then we will cover the stele and seal it up again."

"But if there is something wrong with the ashes inside, then we must contact the family of the deceased. After all, they all have the right to know. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hearing what Gu Chen said, the old man who guarded the tomb suddenly felt a little depressed.

In the final analysis, this stele must be pried open again, and the old mausoleum guard can't avoid it.

Lu Weiwei saw that the old man was still hesitating, so she reminded her, "Why are you hesitating? Hurry up and find tools."

"Oh." After Lu Weiwei said this, the old mausoleum guard suddenly felt as if he had just woken up from a dream. He immediately picked up the flashlight and started walking to the residence.

Seeing the back of the old man who guarded the tomb gradually disappear, Lu Weiwei sighed and couldn't help complaining:
"This old man is a bit unreliable. He was still bragging to us before, saying how many years he stayed here?"

"What, as long as there is movement outside, he can hear it clearly in the residence immediately."

"But now it seems that this is not the case at all."

"Don't talk about it. After all, you are getting old. It's not bad if you let him guard the door. Catch the thief? With the old man's body, it's probably not enough."

Police officer Wang didn't mean to slander the old man at all, he just wanted to say how much money he took for what he did.

Holding a meager salary and guarding the cemetery cemetery itself requires a little courage.

The tomb robbers are generally strong and strong, at least younger than the uncle.

While everyone was discussing, Gu Chen also stood aside, thinking carefully about what happened before.

As long as you close your eyes, it is not difficult to see that Hu Fanzhen was in front of Ye Juanjuan's cemetery, and it is not difficult to see that Hu Fan really didn't believe that Ye Juanjuan left him just like that.

The sudden disconnection a few years ago, and the discovery of the cemetery now, shows that Hu Fan really has a hard time accepting this reality in his heart.

Although the two have never met, the relationship between the two has actually surpassed the relationship between most friends.

Recalling the surveillance footage, Hu Fanzhen took a taxi all the way to the cemetery.

Then it disappeared.

In fact, you can guess with your toes that Hu Fan is probably going to the cemetery.

But within the scope of the cemetery, he disappeared without a word.

It was hard for Gu Chen not to doubt, what was Hu Fanzhen's purpose in coming to the cemetery that night?
Or did Hu Fanzhen actually come to see the mausoleum guardian that night and ask him to let him in?

As for the mausoleum guard, he knew that he had met Hu Fanzhen that night, but he still pretended to be ignorant. This possibility also exists.

Otherwise, many things are hard to explain.

For example, the old man who guarded the tomb boasted that he could hear clearly any movement at the other end of the cemetery.

But that night, the stone tablet in the cemetery was pried open. I am afraid that this kind of movement should not be small in this kind of cemetery in the dead of night.

But the old man who guarded the tomb said that he had never heard of it.

If it weren't for the sharp-eyed Lu Weiwei who suddenly discovered the problem, I'm afraid the old mausoleum guard would deny it.

There is no such thing as going to get tools now and prying open Ye Juanjuan's cemetery together.

"It can be seen that this old man seems to be lying to us?" Gu Chen thought in his heart, feeling that the old man is really unreliable.

While everyone was waiting anxiously, the old mausoleum guard arrived late, with a toolbox in his hand, and threw it in front of everyone:
"At present, there are only these tools. I don't know if it will work?" said the old man.

"As long as the cemetery can be opened." Gu Chen doesn't care too much now, the most important thing right now is to check what happened in Ye Juanjuan's cemetery.
So everyone began to take various tools in the toolbox.

Afterwards, everyone worked together to use tools to clean up the debris around the stele, and then use thick iron wire to make it into a hook state.

Then put the hook wire along the gap of the stele, and go deep into the interior.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the iron wire hooked the bottom of the stele and pulled it up continuously.

However, due to the limited bearing capacity of the iron wire, when the iron wire pulled up the front side of the stele, everyone began to use their hands to hold the edge of the stele.

As the stele was moved bit by bit, a gap visible to the naked eye soon appeared on the stele.

"Hurry up, Xiao Yuan, put the pliers into the gap, and don't let the stele fall, the wire will soon fail." Gu Chen felt that the wire hook's ability to withstand it was already at its limit.

If you are not careful, it is very likely that all previous efforts will be wasted.

Yuan Shasha obeyed, and when the hook wire was about to be straightened by the gravity of the stele, she swiftly put the pliers into the gap.

"Snapped!"

At this moment, the hook part of the iron wire was also straightened by gravity, and the stone tablet sank directly.

Fortunately, Yuan Shasha pressed the handles of the pliers firmly, and only then did she close the gap.

"Quickly, move the stele up." Officer Wang reminded.

So everyone gave up the wire, and began to use the only gaps, and began to work together to lift the heavy stone tablet up bit by bit.

Finally, the stele was moved away by everyone.

Because it is too heavy, it can only be moved to the corner little by little.

But when everyone shone the strong flashlight into it, everyone was stunned on the spot.

In the entire cemetery, there should have been Ye Juanjuan's urn, but at this moment the urn has disappeared, and the entire cemetery is empty.

"Wh...how did this happen? Why is there no urn? What's going on?" Yuan Shasha looked at the old mausoleum guard in disbelief.

At this moment, the old man who guarded the mausoleum was completely panicked. When he lowered his head, his eyes suddenly became surprised:

"This... this is impossible? What's going on? Where's the urn?"

"It seems like we should ask you, right?" Gu Chen looked at the old man sharply.

The old man backed away in fright, and quickly defended himself: "This... I really don't know what's going on? I really don't know..."

"Master." Seeing that the old mausoleum guard in front of him was complaining in various ways, Gu Chen also said truthfully:

"The stone tablet in this cemetery was obviously pried open by someone using tools."

"And you saw it just now, so many of us, using tools and cooperating together, managed to remove the stele and see the situation inside the cemetery."

"And before that, the tomb robbers still need to pry off the surrounding cement blocks, which is bound to cause a lot of commotion."

"And you said just now that you stay in the cemetery, and you can hear every movement outside at night. You are right, right?"

"This... this..." When asked by Gu Chen, the old man who guarded the tomb suddenly panicked, and replied reluctantly:

"That's right, I... I said it, but I really didn't hear anything."

"You're talking nonsense." Seeing that the old man's mouth was quite stiff, Lu Weiwei also took a step forward, and said angrily:

"How dare you say that you don't know? You heard it just now. We have so many people and such a big movement to remove this stele."

"How dare you say you haven't heard anything? Also, this girl named Hu Fanzhen took a taxi to the cemetery the night before yesterday."

"She originally came from Jiangbei City to visit her deceased friend, so she took a taxi here and would not go to other places. She would only come to the cemetery."

After a pause, Lu Weiwei said unhappily: "So she came to the cemetery. If she can enter the cemetery, she will definitely come to you. You should have seen her."

"And she can't pry open this stele by herself. This has been verified just now, which means that she must have a helper to help her."

"And there is no one else here except you, so that night, you were the only one who helped Hu Fanzhen to pry open the stone tablet in Ye Juanjuan Cemetery, but you said that you have never met Hu Fanzhen, you are lying."

Lu Weiwei was much more straightforward than Gu Chen, directly accusing the mausoleum guardian uncle.

After all, judging from the current situation, all situations point to the old man of the tomb guard.

Is this guy a tomb guard or a tomb robber?Everyone is puzzled right now.
