Promote pollen germination, promote fertilization, and increase fruit setting rate?
What plants need to increase fruit setting rate?

"Fruit trees?"

Li Xiang almost blurted out.

A small detail on a snakeskin bag suddenly made him grasp the key point, so he quickly sent a notice to the group, asking everyone to go to the case analysis room for a meeting in 10 minutes.

This is also the first time he has called everyone together for a meeting to face this case since his return.

When the people from the Criminal Investigation Squadron No. [-] saw the news in the group, they immediately knew that Captain Li must have found some clues, so they called everyone together for a meeting at this time.

"Team Li is worthy of being Team Li. In less than a day, we found new clues. It's so powerful."

"What did I say? When Captain Li comes back, this case will be settled."

Li Xiang's return gave everyone a shot in the arm. Everyone was no longer scratching their heads about this case, but they were full of confidence in the case and looked forward to what angle Li Xiang would discover new clues to solve the case. case.

This is what they need to learn.

10 minutes later, everyone arrived.

"We have a meeting."

Li Xiang walked in with the evidence and said without any nonsense: "I have a complete understanding of the case. I have also personally understood the crime scene, autopsy and evidence. The direction of our investigation is not wrong, but the scope is not precise enough. The work The amount is too large and it is a waste of police resources and time. Next, I will first talk about my views on this case and the focus and direction of the subsequent investigation."

He placed the snakeskin bag on the table. The smell of corpses on the bag spread throughout the room. Zhou Man and Sun Zhidong rubbed their noses with their hands from time to time, obviously finding it difficult to accept the smell.

Li Xiang ignored them, but pointed to the trace element symbols on the snakeskin bag and said: "In fact, the types of chemical fertilizers can be classified according to the nutrients they contain, such as nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, micro fertilizer and compound fertilizer, etc. Junior high school chemistry You will learn this knowledge, but for urban people who are not exposed to it often, they may not know the specific functions of these fertilizers. To fertilize crops, common nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium compound fertilizers are enough. Common fertilizers in rural areas It’s this type of fertilizer, but on this bag, there are other trace elements printed on it, such as B and Ca.”

Everyone followed the direction of Li Xiang's finger and saw the inconspicuous letters on the fertilizer bag.

"B stands for boron, which is a trace element fertilizer that can promote pollen germination, promote fertilization, and increase fruit setting rate. Calcium can enhance the plant's resistance to pests and diseases. What plants need to increase fruit setting rate?"

Li Xiang said this, if everyone still can't react, they really shouldn't be sitting here.

"It's a fruit tree."

We usually don’t come into contact with chemical fertilizers and don’t understand them at all. We just think they are the same brand and the bag styles are similar, and we don’t notice the subtle differences at all.

Unexpectedly, the details are here.

For a moment, everyone felt ashamed and extremely impressed. They didn't expect that such small details were discovered by Li Xiang.

Only then did Sun Zhidong understand why Li Xiang was so engrossed in chatting with the farmer uncle about farming.

There is no shortcut to success, the only way is to give 100% effort.

"Yes, for the next direction of the investigation, we can look at where this type of fertilizer is used here, and we can also find out from the merchants who sell this type of fertilizer. I believe there will be clues soon about who often buys this type of fertilizer. .”

"Then what are you waiting for? I'll go check it out right away."

Sun Zhidong was stimulated by Li Xiang and wanted to work hard, and he was full of energy.

In the past, it was all brute force that had nowhere to go. Now that we have a clear goal, what are we waiting for?

As long as we find out whose orchard bought the fertilizer, we will basically delineate the scope of the murderer.

"Not urgent."

Li Xiang raised his hand and signaled Sun Zhidong to take it easy: "I have some guesses about the murderer. First of all, the murderer is a male. The murder weapon should be similar to a bone-chopping knife. Judging from the dismemberment of the body, the murderer needs one. It takes a lot of strength to cut the bones. The forensic doctor suggested before that the murderer's occupation may be a butcher. I don't think so. The murderer has no butchering experience and should be a newcomer. After the area is demarcated, you can go to the local knife shop to ask. The previous paragraph Has anyone ever bought this type of knife? This is a professional knife after all, and there shouldn’t be many people buying it. This is also a direction for investigation.”

Li Xiang gave two clues at once, allowing everyone who had no clue to find the direction in an instant.

"Yes, with Captain Li pointing us in the direction, now we don't have to fly around like headless flies."

After Mao Ji finished speaking, Su Jiayi also helped: "Captain Li, fortunately you came back in time. As the acting captain, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

When Li Xiang was away, she was under the greatest pressure, so much so that she couldn't sleep all night and so much that a handful of her hair fell out.

After the investigation direction was confirmed, everyone divided into several groups to investigate where these trace element fertilizers were used from the source factory, channel distribution and other channels.

With a clear goal in mind, the investigation progressed much faster.

Before dark, a new clue emerged.

There is a local peach orchard that uses a lot of this fertilizer. Especially three months ago, during the peach flowering season, fruit farmers purchased large quantities to fertilize the peach trees.

And this Taoyuan is twenty kilometers away from the place where the body was dumped.

"Let's go here today. When the market opens tomorrow, we will go find clues about the bone chopping knife. Let's have a good rest tonight."

This is the first time that the Criminal Investigation Squadron has not worked overtime since the murder occurred.

Instead, the case achieved a major breakthrough.

Everyone trusts Li Xiang more and more.

Since Li Xiang went on a mission abroad, his abilities seem to be stronger than before.

After everyone got off work, Li Xiang also drove his car and went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables before going home.

"I'm back. I miss you so much. Wait, what does it smell like on you?"

As soon as Li Xiang walked into the house, Lin Feifei, who heard the commotion, rushed over and jumped into Li Xiang's body.

He took a deep breath on Li Xiang to express his love.

But there is something different about Li Xiang today. He used to smell very good, but when he came back today, that sweet smell was gone.

Lin Feifei lay on Li Xiang's shoulder and smelled it carefully again. Then a strong feeling of nausea came over her, causing her to jump down immediately: "Ugh, did you take out your feces today? It stinks!"

"I took a case today, I'm going to take a shower first."

Li Xiang ran to the bathroom immediately to take a shower first. He was not going to tell Lin Feifei that he smelled like corpse today. If he told Lin Feifei, how could he hug and play poker at night?
In the bathroom, Li wanted to use all the shampoo, shower gel, and sulfur soap on his body. As long as it smelled good, it didn't matter what it was, he wanted them all.

This should cover it, right?
After all, he only had a brief contact with it. Like Ning Hua, he had not been marinated and smoked in the forensic room for a long time and had not yet tasted it.

When he came out of the shower, Lin Feifei had already washed the vegetables he bought.

Li Xiang walked over to help prepare it together. After reaching her side, Lin Feifei came over again and smelled it carefully: "Well, it's much better than just now."

The two of them worked together and dinner was quickly prepared.

Cooking and eating together are sweet and happy.

Briquettes ate dog food, eating a lot of it.

The next day, everyone came to the office early. After Li Xiang saw everyone, he simply held a morning meeting and arranged today's work.

"When we arrived in Taoyuan, we all split up. One team continued to track down the fertilizer bags, while the other team started investigating the bone-chopping knife." "Yes."

"understand!"

After getting the clues, everyone became more motivated. They divided into groups and went to the town where Taoyuan was located and started to inquire about the news.

Which one has an orchard?
Which company sells fertilizer?
Has anyone gone missing recently?
Where are the shops that sell bone chopping knives?
As long as you find the right direction, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

The direction Li wanted to give everyone was indeed a clear clue. Based on this clue, everyone visited the market in the town, and soon all the small clues were gathered to him.

And he will judge the value of the clues based on the clues investigated by everyone.

Soon, a clue that Mao Ji and the others investigated caught Li Xiang's attention.

"Yongtai Knife sold a bone-chopping knife a month ago. Not many people bought this type of knife, so the boss remembered it clearly. The time when he bought the knife was close to the time of the victim's death. I think the suspicion is relatively high. I just But the person who bought the knife was a woman."

"woman?"

Li Xiang was a little surprised to hear that it was a woman, because according to his inference, the murderer should be a man.

But now, the person buying the knife is a woman.

Could it be that this woman is an accomplice?

In other words, she is very strong, comparable to a man, and can chop bones by herself.

"Yes, she is a woman. The store has surveillance cameras. The boss said that the video can be saved for three months. I am adjusting the video at the moment. I will send it to you after the surveillance is adjusted."

After waiting for about half an hour, Mao Ji sent over the store's surveillance video.

In the video, the woman buying the knife looks to be in her late 40s or [-]s, with a thin build. She is unlikely to be the murderer because she is not strong enough to chop bones.

The cross-section of the deceased's bones was very smooth. They were broken with a single knife, and there were no traces of repeated chopping.

This shows that the murderer was very strong. He chopped off the bones with one knife and did not repeat the second blow.

If she really bought the murder weapon, then it is possible that she was an accomplice.

"This clue is very important. Investigate the identity of this woman immediately."

At present, this is the most useful clue and the clue closest to the truth.

So Mao Ji and the others quickly started tracing in reverse based on this clue.

First, they contacted the traffic department and called public security surveillance to track the woman's whereabouts and see which direction she went.

With the full cooperation of the traffic police department, Mao Ji and the others quickly found the place where the woman last disappeared.

She did not go far, but lived in the Fuyang resettlement area in the town. After the video surveillance saw her entering the resettlement area, she disappeared.

Mao Ji immediately took the relatively clear photo of the woman from the surveillance video, went to the Fuyang resettlement area, and inquired about the old ladies chatting at the door.

"Grandma, let me ask you about someone. Do you know this person?"

Every place has a director of the Information Office. When they have nothing to do, they like to get together and exchange information.

The wife of the east family is pregnant with her third child, the husband of the west family has lost all his money in gambling, and his wife and children are separated. The child of the south family has good grades and has been admitted to a key university. The old man of the north family is worried about whose widow.

Even if the CIA came over, the ability to deliver this information would be inferior.

So when it comes to asking people, these old ladies gathered here are the best candidates.

Sure enough, after asking several groups of people, another old woman recognized her.

"Isn't this the wife of the Li family? Why are you looking for her?"

When Mao Ji heard that someone actually knew him, he immediately became interested:
"Hello grandma, I am a police officer and I want to ask you about this person."

"Okay, let me tell you, this Li family's daughter-in-law is incredible."

After the old woman knew that Mao Ji was a police officer and wanted to inquire about this person, she immediately started chatting and talked endlessly about all the information about this woman, even the hearsay gossip.

Mao Ji heard these gossips with relish!

It turned out that this woman's name was Dai Qiaoling. She had a son who was in college. It was said that she had hooked up with Lao Wang next door and was caught and raped.

"It's so exciting... No, grandma, I mean, who is Lao Wang next door? What's going on with him?"

"This Lao Wang is not a good guy. He doesn't do his job properly. He is a street kid who likes to play mahjong. It is said that he and Dai Qiaoling hooked up through playing mahjong."

"Does Lao Wang's wife know about this?"

"He doesn't have a wife, and his hometown is not here. The house he lives in here is rented. Later, after he was caught raping, he moved away!"

"Moved away? When did you move away?"

"More than a month ago, I don't remember the specific day."

When Mao Ji heard this, he realized that it was more than a month ago and the time was right again. It seemed that the direction of this line was correct.

One step closer to the truth.

After saying goodbye to the old lady, Mao Ji happily reported the news to Li Xiang.

"Moved? I think it was thrown into the river!"

Out of police intuition, Mao Ji and Li Xiang both thought in that direction.

Make bold assumptions and verify carefully.

Li Xiang suspected that Dai Qiaoling was caught cheating on her husband. In order to get her husband's forgiveness, she and her husband killed her lover and dumped her body. It was unlikely that she killed her husband with his mistress. After all, Dai Qiaoling still lives in her husband's house.

Then there is only one truth.

"I'll be right over. You can find out immediately which household this man named Lao Wang rents from. Call the landlord over and let's go to his room to investigate."

"Yes."

Li Xiang saw that Mao Ji had a breakthrough, so he brought criminal investigation equipment and technicians, drove to the Fuyang resettlement area, and met Mao Ji.

"Team Li, this is the landlord, Uncle Li. He happened to be looking for rent as well. I called him over the phone. This house has been vacant since the last tenant left, and a new tenant has not yet been found."

"Hello, Uncle Li."

"Uncle Li, this is our captain."
