Chapter 42 Discovery
"Come out, I know you're here."

The hoarse voice of the man floated into the ears, followed by the barking of the dogs, the rustling of the grass, and the excited roar of the hounds when they caught the prey.

Zhu Jiangjiang's heart beat like a drum, and she didn't dare to continue hiding where she was.She stood up cautiously, thinking about the possibility of climbing up the big tree behind her.

It's a pity that her tightly bound hands and aching left leg all reminded her of wishful thinking.

In desperation, Zhu Jiangjiang had no choice but to grope and move to the depths of the mountain, intending to hide farther before Shi Guaizi caught up.

In the middle of the night, the light in the mountains was very dim, and Zhu Jiangjiang stumbled along the way.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Zhu Jiangjiang finally stopped when he realized that the barking had completely disappeared.

But before she could relax, the stone under her feet slipped suddenly, and Zhu Jiangjiang tipped over, rolled over bushes, and rolled into a mud pit.

The mud pit was thick with fallen leaves and slippery soil, and gave off a rotten smell.

Thanks to the buffer of these fallen leaves, Zhu Jiangjiang was not injured.But in the face of the perilous darkness, she was extremely tired and did not intend to move any more.

The mountain wind in the middle of the night was very cold, and Zhu Jiangjiang curled up in the pit, expecting to be extremely tormented, but unexpectedly fell asleep unconsciously.

With the sound of birds chirping, Zhu Jiangjiang opened his eyes and found that the sky was already slightly bright.

The mist left a layer of chill on the skin, Zhu Jiangjiang couldn't help but sneezed a few times, looked up to check the direction of the sun, and planned to find a way to go down the mountain.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a dog barking not far away!
Someone is walking through the bushes, approaching here quickly!

That's too late!

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Jiangjiang saw a sturdy wolf dog barking at the edge of the mud pit, and then stretched its limbs and rushed towards her...

Unexpectedly, the wolfhound landed majestically, staring at Zhu Jiangjiang who was huddled in the corner with piercing eyes, and made no other movements except barking non-stop.

"Zhu Jiang Jiang!"

While Zhu Jiangjiang was in a daze, he saw Shi Chong jumping down from the edge nimbly, followed by several people in uniform.

"Are you okay?" Shi Chong noticed Zhu Jiangjiang's bound hands sharply, and took out a knife to untie them, but Zhu Jiangjiang dodged them unexpectedly.

"Don't move, this is evidence." Zhu Jiangjiang said nervously.

"You put on gloves first."

"I'm not wearing gloves, so I'll take them off when I go back, and be careful when you walk." Shi Chong didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Let's go, Kamui!" The trainer waved to Kamui who was obsessed with digging.

Shenwei was very obedient. Although he was reluctant to let go of the half-planed project, he still followed happily with his tail wagging.

"Wait, what is this?" The policeman walking at the end exclaimed.

In the damp soil, a thin white bone was exposed.

"It's a small animal. Shenwei just likes digging up these rotten things. A dead mouse was just dug out in the office a few days ago." A policeman said.

"Let me take a look." Zhu Jiangjiang climbed down with Shi Chong's support, and squatted in front of the bone for a closer look.

This is a human bone!

Fortunately, after confirming Zhu Jiangjiang's disappearance, Shi Chong dispatched a lot of police force.

As soon as he heard Zhu Jiangjiang's judgment, he immediately turned on the radio and summoned the other teams who were about to go down the mountain.

"Pay attention to protecting the site, and continue digging after all the people are gathered. The forensic doctor is already on his way."

After arranging the work, Shi Chong chose to send Zhu Jiangjiang down the mountain first.

"Deal with your case first." Shi Chong explained.

"After I failed to contact you last night, I asked Lan Bo to locate your mobile phone signal. But because there are not many base stations here, I only know that you are probably in the area of ​​​​Dayue Village, so I went into the village to look for it last night. one time."

Although Zhu Jiangjiang was not found, Shi Chong quickly located Shi Guaizi through his visits to Dayue Village.

"I found your mobile phone at his house. There is no one in his house, only a little girl. The child said that you ran out last night. I guessed that you must have gone up the mountain, so I called a search and rescue team to go up the mountain to find you."

Fortunately, Shi Chong came quickly, otherwise it would be hard to say whether Zhu Jiangjiang, a person who has never lived in the wild, would be able to walk out of the mountain alive.

"The one who kidnapped me was Shi Guaizi. I suspect that he committed a murder. Have you searched his house thoroughly?" Zhu Jiangjiang asked.

When Chongzheng was about to speak, the phone suddenly received a message from Queen Bee at the foot of the mountain.

"Queen Bee found a cellar under the chicken coop in his house, and there are probably a lot of dead bodies buried in it." Shi Chong said solemnly.

When the two returned to the foot of the mountain, all the corpses in Shiguaizi's cellar had been exhumed, three in total, and their identities had yet to be confirmed.

"The room is too stinky, so I thought about ventilating outside, but I didn't expect it to be more smelly than the inside. The more I thought about it, the more something went wrong, so I teased that little girl." Queen Bee brushed her hair.

She came to Lanshan with Shi Chong for a business trip this time, so when Zhu Jiangjiang had an accident, she naturally stayed to help.

After Shi Chong guessed that Zhu Jiangjiang ran up the mountain, he assigned Queen Bee and another policeman to guard Shi Guaizi's house.

On the one hand, it is to take care of Shi Guaizi's daughter, and on the other hand, it is also to prevent Shi Guaizi from returning home.

After Queen Bee became suspicious of the strong smell of Shi Guaizi's house, she set her sights on Shi Guaizi's daughter.

She learned from the chat that Shi Guaizi often took some migrant workers home to dig cellars in the name of being a helper.

Although Shi Guaizi's daughter has never witnessed what her father did, she still vaguely knows that there is an endless cellar in the house, which is located approximately under the chicken coop.

"Unexpectedly, he actually installed the entrance under the chicken trough, which made it easy for my old lady to find it, and now my whole body smells like chicken excrement."

Queen Bee sniffed the pickled silk shirt on her body with a look of disgust.

The excavation work on the mountain is not over yet, but there is also an urgent need for people down the mountain.

Shi Chong thought for a while, and first dialed the number of the Lanshan City Public Security Bureau, and asked them to dispatch personnel from various police stations.

Later, he called back to the criminal investigation team and asked them to come to Lanshan to help.

Lanshan is a satellite city of Qinglong, and it was originally jointly managed by Lanshan and Qinglong city governments, so this move is not too much.

"Send Shi Guaizi's photos and information to the passenger station in the village and the transportation hub of Lanshan City. It has been less than a day since the incident happened. As long as he wants to escape to the city, he will definitely not be far away."

As Shi Chong said, he asked people to notify the nearby villages of the arrest of Shi Guaizi.

"What if he hides in the mountains?" Zhu Jiangjiang hesitated.

After such a long time, not only did I not see Shi Guaizi, but I also did not see the hounds following him.

Thinking of the movement she heard when he was hiding last night, she felt that it shouldn't be a problem for Shi Guaizi to hide in the mountains with only a few dogs around him.

Compared with the "eyes" everywhere outside, the mountains where only wild animals move are obviously more conducive to hiding.
