Chapter 376 Actions of the Parties
Liu Guodong's judgment is actually just a guess, and there is no special clue.

But like he said, just in case.

But such a large landfill is impossible to remove manually.

Even if all the personnel from the Haizhou City Public Security Bureau were brought over, it would be impossible to completely clean up.

"In this case, I will ask the superiors for instructions, contact the municipal government, and ask the garbage removal company to cooperate."

"In addition, Team Qin, the scavenger who reported the case, may have taken something from the body."

This is what Lu Chuan said about the little finger marks on the body and the marks on the neck.

On the little finger of the corpse, there are not only the pressure marks caused by the ring after the death of the victim, but also the marks on the skin color caused by wearing the ring for a long time.

The marks on the neck of the corpse should be the pressure marks left by wearing the necklace. The marks exist, but the things are gone.

Who took it?

If it was taken by the murderer, then why didn't he take it away immediately after the murder, instead of waiting for signs of oppression to appear before taking it away.

The logic doesn't make sense, and from this point of view, it seems unlikely that the murderer committed the murder for money.

"Ren Qiang, check it out."

The judgment Liu Guodong said should be true with a high probability.

Scavengers who rummage through garbage dumps are looking for valuable items in the garbage.

After discovering the body, it is not impossible for the other party to take away the jewelry on the body and sell it for money.

However, the things on the body are all evidence in the case, and if the identity of the body cannot be confirmed for the time being, these things may be able to help.

"I'm going right now."

While Ren Qiang was busy here, Lu Chuan and others were also preparing to drive back to the criminal investigation detachment.

Wang Changjiang and Shen Yan will conduct an autopsy on the body, and Lu Chuan will conduct trace evidence detection and analysis on the box containing the body.

The scavenger's name is Zhang Xiaojun, a villager from Cangfanggou Village. He is in his 50s, short, bald, and has shiny dark skin.

"Zhang Xiaojun, take it out."

Ren Qiang didn't talk nonsense. The things must have been gone. Only Zhang Xiaojun had opened the box containing the body before the police came.

"Police...comrade, what did you say, what?"

"Rings and necklaces!"

"Don't pretend to be confused. Only you have seen the body in the box. Hand over the ring on the little finger of your right hand and the necklace around your neck. They are evidence. Taking those things is a crime."

Zhang Xiaojun originally wanted to quibble, but when he heard about the crime, Ren Qiang's serious eyes showed that he reluctantly took out something from his trouser pocket and put it on the table: "I don't know what evidence is or isn't evidence, scavenging, there is Just turn things over, is this what you’re talking about?”

On the table is a colorful gold necklace, and the ring is not gold, but a diamond ring.

The purpose of the other party's murder was indeed not for money, otherwise there would be no reason not to take such a valuable thing.

Anatomy room.

Lu Chuan was holding a variable frequency laser scanner and was scanning trace amounts of information on the corpse. Shen Yan was cooperating.

"Here, here's one."

Turn off the normal light source, and the scanner's strong light shines on the corpse. Some small fibers and objects reflect different haloes under the laser irradiation.

This allowed Lu Chuan and Shen Yan to easily discover the adherents on the corpse.

"what is this?"

Shen Yan used tweezers to pick out a piece of scale from the side of the corpse's thigh.

"It looks like... it should be fish scales?"

The scales were small and in a regular diamond shape. The two people put away their things and continued testing.

When the body was discovered, it had been in a sealed suitcase, which made the investigation easier.The external debris in the garbage dump has little impact on the inside of the box, which is of great value in finding and determining the first scene of the death.

The surface inspection of the corpse was quickly completed. Lu Chuan returned to the investigation laboratory and continued to inspect the inside of the corpse box with Liu Guodong and others.

Likewise, scales similar to those on the corpse were found on the inside.

At the scene, Wang Changjiang suspected that the body had been frozen based on the changes in levels of mildew on the body.

Now, Lu Chuan and others found fish scales in the corpse and the box.

Does this mean that there was some kind of fish refrigerated in the freezer where the murderer kept the body?
Lao Bai held a laser scanner and scanned the box containing the corpse inch by inch.

"What is this gray mark?"

"I feel like dirt residue."

"Get it down and analyze it later."

"There is also fiber here, which is probably similar to the fiber on the corpse."

There were a lot of trace substances in the box containing the corpse, and it took several people nearly an hour to finish it.

"In this way, let's divide the work."

There was a lot of work, and it would definitely be too much for Lu Chuan to do alone.

Fortunately, when there were no cases during this period, Lu Chuan often provided training to the three of them. They were all familiar with the equipment in the current investigation laboratory, including the use of trace evidence analysis instruments.

"Old Bai, the biological test materials of the corpse have been brought over. You are responsible for the DNA information identification."

"no problem."

"Lao Yang, the two of us will handle the trace evidence on the body and the trace evidence in the box."

"Xiao Lu is going to analyze and identify the fingerprints of the deceased to see if he can directly identify the other party. If you are done with the fingerprints found on the box, come down and help us do a trace test."

"Well, I'll go right now."

The first thing to do when a murder occurs is to determine the identity of the deceased.

The division of labor is over and everyone starts working.

In comparison, fingerprint identification analysis should be the fastest.

But the body was discovered too late. Within a month, although the body was not severely decomposed, the collection of fingerprints was actually not ideal.

The body was in a garbage dump and kept in a dark and humid environment for a long time, so it became moldy.

The fingers and toes are basically covered with hair, which will cause greater damage to fingerprints.

The fingerprints collected were incomplete. Lu Chuan didn't care whether I could successfully compare them.

While the investigators and forensic scientists were busy, the work at the scene did not stop.

With the cooperation of the police station, members of the action team are visiting several surrounding villages.

But Ren Qiang knew that the deceased was most likely not from the surrounding villages.

The economic conditions of several villages around the Cangfanggou garbage dump are not particularly good, and their development is average.

The diamond ring on the deceased's hand looked quite large, it looked like a carat.

There is also the colorful gold necklace, which is exquisitely made and is probably a famous brand.

There probably aren't too many rich people like this in the surrounding villages.

The investigation results proved that Ren Qiang's guess was correct. There were only three missing persons in the surrounding villages over the years, but they did not correspond to the circumstances of the deceased.

"Disposal of corpses usually involves committing crimes and killings from a distance. It is better to dump them far away and bury them nearby."

In the car, Zhang Hui and Ren Qiang were chatting.
