I made a copy at the police station

Chapter 212 The only clue (please subscribe, please vote!)
Li Xiang took over the task, so he obtained all the clues of the case and locked himself in the office to study.

Although he had just heard them report on the case, they might not have explained the specific details clearly, which required him to sort out the details of the case himself.

After reading all the cases from beginning to end, Li Xiang had some idea in his mind. There were really not many clues left for the police at the moment. After thinking about it, he decided to go to the crime scene to have a look first. Maybe there were people at the crime scene. There's no telling what we'll find.

So Li came out of the office and called Sun Zhidong, ready to go and have a look together.

"What do you think? Do you have any clues?"

Li Xiang rolled his eyes: "I'm not a fortune teller. You guys have been investigating for a week and there are no clues. I can look at the files at home and just count with my fingers and I can get clues?"

"That's true!"

Sun Zhidong nodded. He thought that Li Xiang was too powerful. No matter how powerful he was, it was still not out of touch with reality. If he could really figure it out, how could he do it?
"Clues have to be found by people. Sitting in the office, you will never have clues."

Under the leadership of Sun Zhidong, Li Xiang quickly arrived at the crime scene.

According to the records, there was only one village in a three-kilometer radius where the crime occurred. Su Jiayi and his people had visited the village and found nothing unusual. The deceased was not from this village.

"This place is indeed a good place to kill people and dump their bodies."

Li Xiang checked around and found that this place was very remote. People who were not very familiar with the terrain might not be able to find this place.

"Yes, according to the person who reported the case, a friend told him about this place. It offers wild fishing and few people come here. Unexpectedly, the first time I came here, I caught something hard. I probably won't come here to fish again in the future." .”

Sun Zhidong also feels that life is simply too wonderful. Some people and some things are so clever that people think everything is arranged by God.

"Who told him about this place? Have you checked, is it possible..."

This clue was also the first time I heard Sun Zhidong say that as a police officer, Li Xiang still asked about it because of his sensitivity, and he would never let any clue go.

"Director Su has already checked. That person is from this village. He also likes fishing. The two of them are friends. They originally made an appointment to come fishing together, but then the person had something to do and didn't come. , let the fishing guy pick it up."

"It's okay if you don't pick up this leak!"

If you pick it up once, it will leave a psychological shadow for the rest of your life.

Maybe it can help him kick his fishing addiction.

"However, most people in this place really don't know that this location is hidden. I think the suspect is probably from this village. He killed someone but didn't run away. It seems he is very confident in himself!"

According to Su Jiayi's investigation, there are no people who suddenly disappeared in the surrounding villagers, which means that the deceased was not from the village, and the murderer did not have a guilty conscience. He knew that the police had salvaged the body and did not choose to escape. This was obviously due to his counter-reconnaissance awareness. Very confident.

"I want to see if your confidence is worthy of your strength."

Li Xiang's fighting spirit was also aroused. This criminal suspect was very cunning and he was looking forward to the moment when he was caught.

"Whether this wild ditch has been fished out again, will the deceased's head still be in the river? It's just that the murderer dumped the body separately."

"On the second day after the incident, Director Su called for a professional salvage team to use professional underwater detection equipment and frogmen to salvage. However, the salvage continued for three days and the scope was expanded to 500 meters, but the river was not found. There are no ocean currents. If the murderer threw his head into the river together, the distance between the two would not be more than 500 meters."

In fact, what Li wanted to say was what Su Jiayi had been doing when the crime occurred. However, after all the work was done, there were very few clues.

"Come on, come with me for a walk."

Later, Sun Zhidong took Li Xiang for a walk in the village. During this time, the farmers in the field were applying potions. Li Xiang got up and started chatting with the villagers.

"Uncle, what kind of medicine are you giving me?"

"Herbicide, look at this field, the grass grows taller than the grain."

Although Li Xiang is also a rural person, he still doesn’t know much about farming.

So, he learned some knowledge about farming and weeding from the old man, which left Sun Zhidong speechless.

Are you here to solve crimes, or are you here to learn farming?
But seeing the serious expression on Li Xiang's face, he still held back and did not urge him.

I can only use the excuse that genius thinking is different from ordinary people to convince myself.

After the old man finished filling a bucket of potion, he returned to the roadside and continued to blend the potion. Li Xiang found some fertilizers and pesticides in his tricycle. The fertilizer bag looked familiar to Li Xiang. It was almost the same as the snakeskin bag containing body parts. Same.

Li Xiang casually took a photo of the snakeskin bag.

Then he asked: "Old man, when is this fertilizer usually applied?"

"The best time to fertilize wheat is during the greening and jointing stages. The effect of fertilizing is best at this time. This bag of fertilizer is still left over from the last time I fertilized. This time I came over to see if there is any malnutrition in the wheat. One more point, the specific fertilization still needs to be determined based on the growth stage of the wheat and the actual situation.”

When the farmer talked about crops, he became interested and told Li Xiang all his common sense about farming.

The level of professionalism is more professional than those professors on the Internet who claim to be agricultural experts.

The old man mixed the pesticides and went back to work. Li Xiang did not disturb him anymore, but prepared to return with Sun Zhidong.

"When did you become interested in farming? What? Do you want to retire and return to your hometown to pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence?"

"You can consider it after you retire." Li Xiang said seriously.

The reason why he chatted with the old man for a while was because the meeting happened to happen. He happened to see him and chatted for a few words.

"You are only in your twenties, and you are considering retiring? Let me tell you, by the time we retire, we will probably be 70 years old. It is not certain whether we can live to this age."

"Then you have to work hard to live. Go to bed early and get up early instead of staying up late. Eat regularly and exercise more."

"Not staying up late? Impossible, absolutely impossible. Only the time after early morning is my time."

"Holy crap, you're a rich second generation, why are you so involuntarily involved?"

The two chatted in the car and soon returned to the city bureau.

When they arrived at the unit, the two stopped talking nonsense.

"Think about what to do next?"

"Go to the forensic room, I want to see those body parts."

When Sun Zhidong heard that Li wanted to go to the forensic room to see the body parts, he suddenly felt nauseous: "Well, you know the forensic room, so I won't take you there. I'll go back to drink some water and cough."

After saying that, before Li Xiang could reply, he quickly ran away.

He really didn't want to go to the medical examiner's room. The smell of corpses not only smelt people, but also couldn't be washed away.

That smell is like being stuck in your nose, lasting for a long time and leaving you with endless aftertaste.

Xiaomei also told him that if he played with these corpses again, she would stop playing with him and let him live with the corpses for the rest of his life.

This is also the reason why it is difficult for forensic doctors to find a partner. How many people really don't mind?Say you don't mind, it just didn't happen to you.

After Sun Zhidong left, Li Xiang had no choice but to go there by himself.

The forensic doctor's name is Ning Hua. Li Xiang has met him many times and they are already very familiar with each other.

When he saw Li Xiang, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Captain Li is back?"

"Well, I just came back. It's just in time for the case."

"That's an urgent matter when you come back. This case is quite difficult, but now that you're back, it won't be a big problem."

Li Xiang was well-known. He went from being a small auxiliary police officer to captain of the First Criminal Investigation Squadron in just a few months. This ability was unprecedented and unparalleled.

Becoming famous depends on real ability.

"Is it a big problem? You have to look at it to find out. Is the body still inside?"

"Here, I've finished cleaning up the body parts. Come and take a look."

Li Xiang followed Ning Hua into the forensic room. On the operating table, there were dozens of pieces of broken meat and bones, pieced together to form a humanoid torso.

Only the head is missing.

After Li Xiang approached, Ning Hua handed over the protective suit. After he put it on, he walked into the operating table.

Even though these corpses had been cleaned up by Ning Hua, the smell of decay still hit Tianling Gai.

Li Xiang, who hadn't smelled this smell for a long time, felt like he was breathing normally after getting used to it.

These corpses were severely rotted, and most of the carrion had separated from the bones. If you lift them gently, you can feel the bones and flesh being separated.

Li Xiang handled them with care and carefully observed the corpses, trying to find some breakthroughs.

"Captain Li, do you also know about autopsies?"

Ning Hua, who was standing next to Li Xiang, asked curiously when he saw his professional and skillful approach.

As far as he knows, their Team Li is an all-round talent. He can solve crimes and fight duels. He has won the city-level all-around gun champion, and he can also simulate crime portraits. If any of these skills is applied to others, then They are all elite talents.

Now, after Li Xiang's actions, he felt that this guy might be trying to steal his job.

"A little research."

Li Xiang didn't even raise his head, staring at the corpses with such concentration that if one ignored the rotting stumps in his hands, others would think he was admiring something indescribable.

"The whole body of the corpse was chopped into 18 pieces. The bones were cut neatly, the muscle tissue was severely rotted, and the main skeletal structures such as the sternum, pelvis, and leg bones were exposed. In addition, I did not find anything other than broken corpses on these rotten skins. The victim’s specific cause of death cannot be determined at this time.”

While listening to Ning Hua's introduction, Li Xiang asked his own question: "What method do you think the murderer used to dismember the body?"

"Looking at the cross-section of the bones and flesh, I suspect that the murderer used a bone-chopping knife to dismember the body. Most people's vegetable heads cannot do this, so I suspect that the murderer is probably a butcher, or is related to a butcher."

"The cross section is indeed formed like a bone chopping knife, but the murderer is not a butcher."

Hearing Li Xiang deny his guess, Ning Hua subconsciously asked: "Why?"

"Because the murderer has no experience in butchering. You see, more than half of the murderer's methods of dismembering the body are to chop at the hardest part of the bone. If he is a butcher, he will definitely find the bones between the bones if he wants to dismember the body. Dismembering the body at the cartilage position can save a lot of energy."

"I see, Captain Li, I didn't expect you to know much about slaughtering."

"It never hurts for all walks of life to understand something. The murderers we face may come from all walks of life."

After listening to Li Xiang's words, Ning Hua gave him a thumbs up. He was promoted to criminal investigation captain in a short time. His ability was really impressive, so he didn't directly rule out the butcher career.

"That's not the butcher, who could be the murderer?"

"I want to know who the murderer is, and I'm going to catch him right now."

Ning Hua scratched his head in embarrassment, knowing that he was out of his mind and asked an idiot question.

After Li Xiang looked at the corpse in the forensic department, he went to the last place, which was the evidence department.

When the body parts were recovered, there were no clothes inside, just a snakeskin bag.

In other words, the snakeskin bag is the only evidence currently available to the police.

Li Xiang took out the snakeskin bag from the physical evidence department and started his own research.

As Sun Zhidong said, this snakeskin bag is indeed a bag of compound fertilizer. This brand of fertilizer is quite famous in the province. It is an old brand and has a very high market share.

Li Xiang took out his cell phone and took a look at the fertilizer bags he took in his tricycle when he went to the site in the morning.

The snakeskin bag used to find and contain the body was produced by the same company.

This is why Mao Ji said that this snakeskin bag is a bag commonly used in rural areas to contain compound fertilizers. It can be seen everywhere in rural areas.

Could it be that there are really no clues at all?

At this time, Li Xiang suddenly discovered that there were several letter symbols in the same area on the snakeskin bag in the photo and the snakeskin bag containing the body that seemed different. He quickly enlarged the photo on his phone to confirm. Did you see it wrong?

It turns out that the old man’s fertilizer ingredient list contained the English letters N, P, and K, but the snakeskin bag used to carry the corpse also contained letters such as B and Ca.

He knew that the three letters N, P, and K represented nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium respectively in the fertilizer ingredient list.

These are the three main nutrients necessary for plant growth.

The teacher started teaching this when I was in junior high school chemistry, so it’s not difficult to understand.

But on the other bag, the letters of B, Mn and other trace elements are written. This is the difference between the two.

"Will this be a breakthrough?"

Thinking of this, Li Xiang was very happy. He quickly took out his mobile phone and started looking for information online. He wanted to see what the difference was between the two.

Soon, he found what he wanted to know.

Everyone who has studied junior high school chemistry knows the effects of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium on plants, so we will not elaborate here.

B stands for boron, which is a trace element fertilizer that can promote pollen germination, fertilization, and fruit setting rate.
