Chapter 99 Embedding
"arrive."

After five o'clock in the afternoon.The two guides dragged Liu Jinghui onto a small platform on the edge of a cliff.

He is getting older, and he can persist in the first half of the mountain road, but he is basically a dead dog in the second half.

Of course, in Liu Jinghui's own words, he was just "too tired from driving yesterday".

Jiang Yuan was also tired. Taking advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun, he quickly took a group of photos, and then carefully observed the surrounding environment, and the sky quickly darkened.

Jiang Yuan will help prepare for camping. LV2's camping skill finally played a role. Although it is not as calm as the two guides, it still speeds up the overall progress a lot.

The cliffs here have been cleared artificially. Although the ground is covered with plants, they are not big and can let some light through.Behind the platform composed of several large stones is a cave with a depth of three to four meters. The inside has also been tidied up, with a fire pile prepared in advance and a small amount of firewood, branches and leaves.

Several people quickly cleared an open space on the small platform. After gaining a foothold, they erected a small tent, collected water from the mountain stream, and lit a fire.

The cave behind the small platform was the first scene of the "Wu Long savage case", but the four of them didn't mention this, and first sorted out their place in a dull manner.

An experienced guide sprayed a large amount of insect repellent on the ground of the small platform, and saw insects of different colors crawling out from under various rotting branches and leaves, and waddled to the grass next door.

Liu Jinghui's face changed slightly, and he asked again: "Is no one here now? I remember the last time I came, it was like this..."

The experienced guide said: "We are taking the path taken by the herb pickers in the past. The caves here are also prepared by the herb pickers for themselves."

Another guide said with a bit of nostalgia: "Everyone is going out. If it rains or is injured or sick, and you can't go back for a while, you can stay in the cave for one or two nights, light a fire and boil some water. Those who come over, if they have time, add some firewood to it... There are also such things at the foot of the mountain, and there are much fewer."

"Then now, it's impossible to be completely deserted, right?" Liu Jinghui asked, "At least you will come here."

"Now we are just taking orders from some customers. There are donkey friends who come to play, and those who go on hikes... The hikers generally don't take this route. It's too biased. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be here in a few years. Let’s go this way.” The guide said while chopping down several small saplings with a hatchet, feeling a little bit to put an end to future troubles.

But everyone knows that when it comes up again next year, the place must be full of young saplings again.

"What about the village? People from the villages below the mountain will also come up the mountain." Liu Jinghui asked similar questions before, but this time he deliberately changed to a new young tour guide, so he wanted to ask again.

The guide looked like he was about 20 years old, and he didn't take it seriously, so he said: "Most of the people in the village come up because of some kind of illness in the family, so they come to collect some medicine for their own use. We can't get here, let's go here, Those who walked for eight or nine hours were still splitting the mountain, and the village is full of old people now, so they can’t afford the effort.”

Liu Jinghui said "En", thought for a while, and then said to Jiang Yuan: "Then let's go into the cave and investigate first? It's better to live in the cave at night, and we will investigate all the big places tonight."

He has been here before, and he knows that living outside the cave is troublesome.The environment in the mountains is not like the outside, the cold and damp can make people sick, and the poisonous insects and beasts don't know where to hide.

However, in order to minimize the impact on the crime scene, he only found Jiang Yuan and two guides this time, instead of coming out with a mighty team like last time.

Jiang Yuan nodded. He came here to do on-site surveys, so there was no need to be lazy.

Liu Jinghui asked the two guides to fetch water and cook, and then said: "You have seen all the previous photos, where do we start?"

The photo was taken by Jiang Yuan on the road with an iPad.It was also the most useful evidence that had been preserved before—but as far as Jiang Yuan saw it, it was useless.

The first wave and the second wave of policemen who went up the mountain found almost no valid evidence other than the dead body.The forensic doctors who participated in it, after proving the identity of the corpse with difficulty, made little progress in forensic pathology.

Because the corpses are incomplete, the current guess is that the deadly wounds of the corpses are in the abdomen, but the soft abdomen is the most popular among beasts. Before the corpses decay, the visiting animals dig out the abdomens containing the death information into a big hole...

Of course, there is nothing strange about it.As far as the present situation is concerned, any footprint on the ground can be wiped out by bugs, fungi, or other strange things.The evidence commonly used by criminal police has no reason to exist in this environment.

Jiang Yuan held up the flashlight, shook it twice, and said slowly: "Fingerprints are unlikely, and DNA is also hopeless. The most likely thing is physical evidence, such as plastic packaging, ironware, etc. I will start with the fire. Look in the burning ashes, you don't mess with things."

The three treasures of criminal police, video mobile phone DNA, Jiang Yuan thinks that the most promising is the mobile phone, for example, pulling a mobile phone from the bottom of the cave, which is the best.

The dream didn't come true.

Jiang Yuan then sat next to the fire, put on his gloves, and stroked the ashes inside little by little.

To be honest, these black ash and other things are almost wiped out by nature, but the branches or parts of food, after being smoked, can be preserved for a longer time.However, considering that last time, the police also lit a fire and barbecued meat here, it's hard to say who made the things Jiang Yuan pulled out.

Even so, Jiang Yuan checked here first, and then looked around for clues and evidence.

This search took place in the middle of the night.

After barely resting for half the night, the next morning, when the sun had just risen, Jiang Yuan quickly took advantage of the time to retrieve the evidence he found yesterday.

Really lackluster.

Jiang Yuan sat by the fire, holding the fire with a branch, frowning and thinking.

This place is not like a residence in a residential building. Even if you wipe the cave carefully, you probably won't be able to wipe anything.The rich variety of microorganisms can easily obliterate all biological evidence.

Extract some soil and go back for chemical analysis, maybe there will be some results, but I'm afraid it won't help the case.

Liu Jinghui got up too. He washed himself with cold water first, then turned around, and said slowly, "Look for whatever you can find. Calling you over is a dead horse as a living horse doctor. The criminal police in the first two rounds Don’t count them, I brought several technicians with me last time, and I still didn’t find anything.”

In fact, Jiang Yuan didn't need Liu Jinghui to comfort himself, he just rubbed his shoulders, got up and said, "I can't see anything in the cave, I'll go around first."

"Let Xiao Yang accompany you." Liu Jinghui called the more experienced guide, and followed Jiang Yuan to look around.

Of course, the main point of concern is the mountain stream where the body was found.

Seeing noon like this, Jiang Yuan went back to the fire, saw that the fire was a little small, so he found firewood, and built a fire shelf again.

While doing this, Jiang Yuan's gaze fell to one side of the wall.

The color of the walls here has changed slightly. Most people probably subconsciously think that this is caused by the fire.

However, with the LV2 camping skill record, Jiang Yuan can easily make a judgment: no.

The fire of the fire affects the growth of organic matter on the wall, and it should also be the part closest to the fire and the flame, which is affected first.

As a result, the place where the wall color changes the most is further inward.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan immediately stepped forward and looked carefully at the wall of the cave.

Judging by his crime scene skills, the wall should have been polluted to some extent. As for what it is...

Jiang Yuan touched it lightly with his gloved fingers, and his attention was quickly diverted.

what pollution.

what colour.

Jiang Yuan tore apart a section of vine, and clearly saw a half-black object embedded in the wall behind him.

Peeling off the soil next to the half-black object, an uncommon word flashed in Jiang Yuan's mind: bullet.

Jiang Yuan immediately took the camera to take pictures, then set up the tripod, switched to the photography mode, and then took the field survey box, and carefully peeled off the soil, plants and stone chips around the semi-black object.

A shattered bullet stabbed the cave 30 centimeters from the bottom up.
