Shhh, the night is coming

Chapter 109
The off-road vehicle was driving quickly on the avenue leading to Q Town in the urban area. When passing by the Public Security Bureau, Xu Ran subconsciously turned her head to take a look, and soon turned to the opposite side, and glanced at the building of Xiangxiang International.

Xu Ran's indifferent expression hides a heart of resentment, and the off-road vehicle speeds past with a kick.

Wen Lan and Zhou Jie hadn't dared to go out for dinner, for fear that Xu Ran wouldn't be able to see them. At this moment, their stomachs were growling like they were singing a double reed.

As soon as Xu Ran walked into the office, he immediately asked, "Have the witnesses brought back?"

Wen Lan and Zhou Jie got up quickly, pointed to a table behind them, "I brought it back, and I'm taking notes."

Xu Ran glanced at where they were pointing, hummed lightly, and sat down in his seat.

Wen Lan hurriedly stood opposite him, waiting for him to issue a task.

"Tell me about the witness."

Xu Ran opened the notebook, picked up a pen, turned it around twice and held it in his hand.

"Well. The witness is Sun Yongxing, 58 years old this year. He went to the crop field early this morning to see how the crops were ripe. When he walked to the edge of the field, he found his own field. He was trampled on. He was very angry.

I searched all the way along the trampled place, wondering what kind of hatred the people who trampled on his crops had with him.

When he walked all the way to the middle of the field along the stepping position, he found that there was a big place in the middle of the field. All the crops had been dug up by the roots, and then they were all buried in the soil where they were.

I also asked, how did he know that the crops were buried in the soil.

He said that because the dug up crops were not all buried, many ears were still exposed.When I was asking Sun Yongxing, Zhou Jie went to the scene to investigate first, and it was indeed as he said.

Sun Yongxing said that at the time, he was very angry at such pranksters; secondly, he subconsciously pulled the ears of crops buried in the soil.

Unexpectedly, with just a light pull, a human hand was pulled out. He was so frightened that he ran to the ridge of the field, and called the police when he reached the ridge. "

Xu Ran tapped lightly on the table with his left hand, narrowed his deep eyes, and asked calmly, "What did you find at the scene?"

Wen Lan looked at the pen turning in his hand, and said: "After I asked Sun Yongxing, I went to Zhou Jie immediately. He has already dug out all the broken limbs and bones buried in the farmland, and chopped them into pieces. Small pieces, all bone."

Xu Ran looked at Wen Lan suspiciously, "Is it all bones?"

"Yes, it's all bones. It doesn't look like it was formed by long-term decay, because the bones that were dug out are very clean and there is no dirt."

"Well, the absence of dirt does not seem to be caused by long-term decay. Where are those bones now?"

"We sent it to the small conference room."

"Well, only the bones of the limbs were excavated? Are there no trunk bones, sitting bones, or skulls?"

"No, nothing else was found. Because the soil in the field is too rotten, the shoe prints have no value for extraction."

"Okay, you go and see how the inquiry is going. I'll go to the small conference room to see the pile of bones."

After Xu Ran finished speaking, she got up and walked towards the small conference room, deliberately slowing down when passing Sun Yongxing.

Hearing the little policeman asking him about his impression of that hand, Sun Yongxing said: "It's white, it's very long."

Xu Ran glanced at him, Sun Yongxing felt someone was looking at him, looked up and met Xu Ran's eyes.

He was cold and indifferent, wearing white clothes and black trousers. It is estimated that Sun Yongxing did not associate him with the police at all.

Opening the door of the small conference room, Xu Ran saw bones and limbs on the conference table at a glance.

Xu Ran opened the cabinet in the meeting room and took out a pair of gloves and a white protective coat from it.

This small conference room was specially prepared after he came, and this cabinet was also the conference room he asked to put in, just to store some protective equipment and tools.

Xu Ran picked up the bones one by one and observed them carefully against the light, then put them back in their original positions.

Write it down in the notebook you carry with you, the bones are white, very light, and cooked.

After writing down these, he went to the cabinet again, took out a tape measure, and measured the length of the leg bone, which was 82 centimeters.

He put away the tape measure and paused, looking at the 82 cm long white bone, from the thigh bone to the ankle, and then the foot.

These feet don't seem too big, so Xu Ran measured them again, 23 centimeters.

He took a deep breath and put away the measuring tape without haste.

The victim is a female, about 165cm tall, with a foot size of 36 to 37.

From the current surface of these bones, there is no excess meat residue and blood stains on them, and there is no smell.

Every piece of bone that was chopped off was smooth and white, and the bone body was very light; Xu Ran preliminarily concluded that the victim's body should have been killed, divided and boiled, and then dumped in different places.

After doing this, he took off his gown and gloves and came to the office again.

The reporter named Sun Yongxing had finished taking notes and left. Wen Lan and the others were discussing the case with the notes; when they saw Xu Ran coming out, they immediately got up and made room for him.

When Xu Ran approached, Wen Lan helped him pull out a chair, Xu Ran glanced at him, and then nodded his thanks.

After taking a seat, he picked up the transcript of Sun Yongxing handed over by Zhou Jie, and looked at it.

There was such a sentence in the transcript, question and answer, which caught his eyes.

The policeman asked: "Although you are not too old, you are 58 years old after all. Why didn't you let your children go to work in the fields, and you have to go to the ridge yourself?"

Sun Yongxing replied: "I have no daughter, only one son. I just went to the ridge this morning to see how the crops are ripe, and it's not yet time to harvest.

My son is also very busy at work. He works as a small cadre in an electronics factory and has to do a lot of things every day. We parents are also considerate.

Originally, few young people do crop work anymore. My son is quite sensible, and he has never worried me about work.

It's just that I have been thinking about my girlfriend who disappeared suddenly five years ago, and I don't want to get married, so I am worried. "

Seeing this conversation, Xu Ran's heart suddenly felt like something hit him, and it hurt a little.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that everyone was looking at him.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Zhou Jie quickly asked, "Officer Xu, is there something wrong with Sun Yongxing's record?"

Xu Ran sighed with a smile, "No problem. But I'm very interested in his son. When I get a chance, one of you will accompany me for a walk."

Zhou Jie and Wen Lan responded together: "I can."

Xu Ran pointed at Wen Lan and said, "Zhou Jie, come with me, you have more important things to do when you stay."

"what's up?"

"After my preliminary observation and measurement of the four bones just now, I concluded that the victim is 80.00% likely to be a woman, and [-]% may be an underage child, and it is absolutely impossible to be an adult male.

The victim was about 165 centimeters tall and 23 feet long, about 36 to 37 yards.

These data are obviously the data characteristics of women. If it is a man, unless it is an underage child, it is absolutely impossible. "
