corpse investigation department

Chapter 5

mortuary investigation department

The "floating corpse case" 15 years ago was a perfect answer for my father, Si Hongzhang, but it was the beginning of a nightmare for me.Back then, while cooperating with the criminal police team in arresting the suspect in the floating corpse case, his father was involved in a car accident, resulting in paralysis of the lower limbs and being bedridden all year round.He ended up leaving the job he loved with regret.And from the age of seven, sitting on the bed and talking with my father has become an indispensable part of my childhood.While other children were imagining the beautiful stories of princes and princesses in the fairy tale kingdom, my mind was basically occupied by all kinds of strange murder cases.In order for my father to have someone to confide in, I often bite the bullet and listen to his eloquence on the bed.This directly led to my instinctive aversion to the profession of police since I was a child.

Finally, I made the most important decision in my life. I made up my mind to draw a clear line from the word "policeman", but my father insisted that I "inherit my father's work" and fulfill his unfinished dream.Seeing my father's unreasonable expression, it was the first time in so many years that I turned my back on him.Because of that quarrel, my father was also lying on the hospital bed.I stood by the hospital bed, looked at his wrinkled face and gray temples, and finally chose the police academy with helplessness.

My name is Si Yuanlong, male, 23 years old, junior trace inspector of the Criminal Technology Division of Yunxi Public Security Bureau.Although I also wear a handsome police uniform, my job is not as exciting as it is in movies and TV dramas.Now all I need to face every day are some boring fingerprints and footprints.

At noon in July, the scorching sun scorched every inch of the corner it could reach, and with the sound of cicadas, the leaves rolled lazily.In this hot and impetuous weather, there is nothing more refreshing than lying in an air-conditioned room after lunch and having a good night's sleep.

Just when I had just decided to fight Duke Zhou for [-] rounds, the landline in the duty room suddenly rang like crazy.A chubby man lifted his boxers reluctantly, got up unsteadily and walked to the phone. The short call of a few seconds made the small mung bean eyes on his face stare. It's bigger than a soybean.

The man hung up the phone, blushed and shouted loudly to the lounge: "Get up quickly!"

Boom, I was frightened by the pig-killing roar and jumped up from the bed, and my forehead just hit the upper bed, making me grin my teeth in pain.

"Brother Lei, what are you shouting at noon?" I complained.

"There is a murder case!"

The man I call Brother Lei, surnamed Jiao and named Lei, is my father's third apprentice. Because his figure is like a pumpkin, we like to call him "Fat Lei" in private.He is in charge of criminal photography and video analysis in our department. Although he is unshaven all day long, he was the champion of the provincial photography competition last year.Although he is ten years older than me, we get along very well. In the department, we can be said to be good buddies who talk about everything.

When I heard that it was a murder case, I reluctantly picked up the police uniform at the end of the bed and put it on myself feebly.After many reforms, the Public Security Bureau has raised the functions of our department to a very high level. In addition to some daily inspection and appraisal work, we also have to directly participate in the on-site inspection and investigation related to the corpse. The good-for-nothings like to call us the "Department of Mortal Investigation".

Just as I was sitting on the edge of the bed and was about to lift up my police pants, a man jumped out from my upper bunk with a bang. At this moment, the corner of his mouth was raised, he stood on the ground barefoot, squinting his eyes, and grabbed the bed with both hands vigorously.I saw him put the thick pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, and picked up the police uniform excitedly.His name is Chen Guoxian, my father's second apprentice. Although he is not the oldest in the department, he looks anxious. People who know him like to call him "Old Xian".He is in charge of testing in the department, and his attitude towards work can be summed up in one word "idiot".

After I buttoned the last button in a panic, a man with a blank face stood at the door of the lounge. The man looked at his watch and said coldly:
"I'll give you 3 minutes!"

After speaking, he opened the door and went out to start the car.

His name is Leng Qiming, my father's favorite student and the director of our department, who studied forensic medicine.His personality is in perfect harmony with his surname, and it is difficult for him to fart with three sticks.He is also a thorn in my side. I have been cursing him behind my back a lot during the year of work.

Back then, when I stepped into this department on the first day after graduating from the police academy, I suddenly realized that all of this was completely planned by my thoughtful father.

Two minutes later, I was dejectedly carrying the trace inspection box, Fat Lei held a pack of criminal photography equipment tightly in his left hand, and Lao Xian held two biological extraction boxes with both hands. In the police car with the words "Crime Scene Investigation".

"What's the situation?" I lay on the row seat of the car and asked, yawning.

"Broken Corpse." Brother Ming said two words very quickly from his mouth while turning the steering wheel.

"Cough, cough, cough." When I heard these two words, I was really frightened.

"What? Broken corpse?" I grabbed the back seat of brother Ming's driver's seat again, stretched my head over, and waited for his confirmation.

"Why, is there a problem?" He turned his head and said to me.

I turned my head to look at Fat Lei, who was sleeping soundly in the co-pilot seat, and at Lao Xian, who had his eyes slightly closed, and finally sat back in the seat with a feeling of uneasiness.

Maybe some people will have doubts, isn't it just the corpse case, why am I so nervous?In fact, only I know the reason for this.The dismemberment case is different from other cases.Take a general burglary homicide case as an example, the "room" where the victim's body is located is the crime scene, that is to say, no matter how complicated the scene is, we only need to conduct a detailed investigation of this crime scene.However, the dismemberment case is different. A place where the corpse is dumped is a scene that needs to be investigated by us. If the suspect is ruthless and randomly dumped in dozens of places, then we need to concentrate on investigating dozens of sites.So when I heard about dismembered corpses, I, who was not interested in the work, would inevitably be afraid of difficulties.

"It's a blessing, not a curse. A disaster can't be avoided." I sighed softly, crossed my hands on my chest, leaned on the backrest, closed my eyes, and simply let him go.

Brother Ming drove the survey vehicle all the way.

"Hello, Class I car."

I don't know how long it took, but I was awakened by this sudden sentence.

I slightly opened my eyes and looked at the passing road outside the window:

"Why are you on the highway?"

"The scene is on the expressway section of our city, and we will be there soon."

Just as he was talking, Brother Ming quickly turned the steering wheel, and the car made a 360-degree turn along the circling road. He slammed on the brakes, and the survey car stopped firmly at several vehicles with flashing police lights. After the police car.

Brother Ming opened the door of the driver's cab, and a middle-aged man with two bars and two stars on his shoulders walked forward quickly. He was Xu Shi, the captain of the criminal police brigade in the jurisdiction.

"Director Leng." Captain Xu shouted.

"What's the specific situation at the scene?" Brother Ming asked with his mouth open before he had time to exchange pleasantries.

Captain Xu stopped in his tracks, and calmed down his rapid breathing:
"We also just received a call from the police station. The person who reported the case is Zhao Yuee, who often herds sheep on the grass on both sides of the highway. When she passed by this area at noon today, she saw a rancid sack that was still soaked in blood. Zhao Yuee Out of curiosity, she stepped forward to open the sack and found a human hand and some yellow body parts inside, and then she called the police."

Brother Ming frowned slightly when he heard this, and said, "How many packs of corpses have been found now?"

"Just this package. We don't know much about it so far, and we have no way to start. We have sealed off the scene. You should investigate first and see what you find, so we can start investigating." Captain Xu replied anxiously at this time road.

"Are you from the legendary corpse investigation department?" A voice came from behind Captain Xu.Captain Xu frowned and looked back, and as he turned slightly to one side, a handsome, tall young girl in police uniform appeared in front of everyone.

The girl was in her 20s, about my age, with ponytails and light makeup. I saw a crutch on her police uniform shoulder strap, and instantly knew her identity.If you are careful enough, you will find that there will be an epaulet on the shoulder of the police uniform. The print on the epaulet shows a person's level. Two bars for two stars, one bar for three stars, two bars for one star, and so on.My current epaulets are one bar and one star. To get such epaulets, I must graduate from university, take the police recruitment exam, and need to practice for a year before being awarded after being admitted.If there is not even a star on the shoulder badge, then there is only one possibility, this person is an intern.

A murder case is happening here, but I don't have time to talk nonsense here. I was already upset, and I gave the girl a blank look, and said without any sympathy:
"Please put away your curiosity, it's important to handle the case!"

"Hey, how did you talk!"

"All right!"

The girl pinched her waist with both hands and was about to explode when Captain Xu scolded her with a single sentence.

Brother Ming frowned slightly, without much understanding, he winked at the three of us, and walked towards the scene of the crime.

Two blood sacks
The first scene is located on the south side of the highway from Yunxi City to Liuhe City. The grass outside the guardrail is where the body parts are located. The scene has been surrounded by police from the local police station with a cordon.

The four of us climbed over the railing and came to the periphery of the central scene.

Fat Lei found a clean place, threw the camera equipment on the ground, knelt down on one knee, and began to assemble it quickly.No matter what the scene is, in order to maintain the original traces of the scene, the first thing that the public security personnel who arrive at the scene should do is to protect the scene, damage the scene as little as possible, and wait for the on-site inspection by professional technicians.

The first step of the inspection is to take pictures of the periphery of the site to ensure the integrity of the original overview of the site. After the pictures of the periphery are completed, the remaining technicians will have a division of labor.

In a relatively large case, the technicians will be divided into photographers, physical evidence extractors, forensic doctors, and trace inspectors.

Taking this case as an example, the photographer is Jiao Lei. His main purpose is to use photos to restore the general appearance of the scene and the spatial and physical locations of all physical evidence.

And the physical evidence extractor is Chen Guoxian, who is responsible for testing all the physical evidence extracted at the scene that needs to be tested, and find clues to solve the case.

Forensic medicine is the best to understand, that is, Leng Qiming, the director of our department, his main work objects are all kinds of corpses, through autopsy to discover the suspect's modus operandi, and so on.

The last one is the trace inspector, which is me. In a case, I am mainly responsible for judging the fingerprints, footprints and other traces that may be left on the scene, and finding out the identity and physical characteristics of the suspect.

In fact, in case investigation, there is a certain order. Before entering the scene, Fat Lei first needs to take pictures of all the general appearance of the scene, and then I will survey the ground of the scene to see if the suspect left behind at the scene. Valuable fingerprints, footprints and other traces, after I finish, Brother Ming will enter the scene to inspect the corpse, wait for everything to be basically inspected, then the old sage will be the last to enter the scene, and check the items that need to be inspected during the investigation. Carry out aliquot extraction.

Although I am a rookie-level trace inspector, I am the first to enter every crime scene.But judging from the current situation, the ground at the scene of this case is full of weeds, and there are no shoe marks left at all. No matter how capable I am, it is useless. I can be lazy and don't need to investigate the scene.

"The periphery of the scene has been fixed." Fat Lei wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to us.

"Okay, Guoxian is preparing the extraction bag outside, you two come in with me." Brother Ming turned his head and looked at me deliberately.

A second ago, I was thinking of being lazy for a while, but after hearing what he said, I was like a discouraged ball, so I asked very reluctantly:
"I still want to go in? I can't mention the shoe prints, why should I go in?"

"Come in, let me say it again." Brother Ming's tone did not allow me to refuse at all.

I glanced angrily at Brother Ming, whose face was stretched uglier than a donkey's, and replied with a drawn-out tone on purpose:

"understood!"

He ignored my answer, picked up the box and walked towards the sack.

I rolled my eyes at Brother Ming's back, and got into the protective circle annoyed.

In the center scene, a yellow burlap bag soaked with blood was placed on the south side of the highway. Next to the burlap bag, a forearm with exposed bones teased my visual senses.Due to the weather, bursts of rotten smell came to me. This smell is like a mixture of dozens of rotten eggs and a dead mouse. Normal people smell it for the first time, [-]% dry vomit.

"It's unlucky, I could have had a good night's sleep, but such a difficult case happened." While complaining in my heart, I took out a mask from my pocket and put it on my mouth.

"Take a detailed photo of the sack." Brother Ming said, pointing his right hand to the ground.

"Okay." Fat Lei took out the tripod stuck behind his buttocks, fixed it on the ground, took out a filter from his jacket pocket, and stuck it in front of the camera lens.

Zizi, Fat Lei quickly adjusted the focus with his chubby right hand.

Click, click, after the shutter sounded twice, Brother Ming professionally tugged on the latex gloves, walked up to the sack, gently pressed the surface of the sack with his right hand, and stench of blood flowed out from the hole of the sack.He raised his bloody right hand to the tip of his nose and sniffed.To be on the safe side, I put on another layer of mask, and after making sure everything was safe, I also walked up.

"Brother Ming, what did you smell?" I covered my nose and moved over curiously.

Brother Ming paused for a moment without replying, then he carefully removed the sack, and a bloody forearm appeared in front of my eyes. The muscle tissue on the forearm had almost completely fallen off, and the eerie white bones were exposed.At the end of the forearm there was still a dangling right palm.Then he grasped the two corners at the bottom of the sack with both hands, and with all his strength——

wow.

A pile of minced meat with yellow fat sticking to it was poured out of the bag by him.

"Jiao Lei, take a picture." Brother Ming stepped aside.

"The chopping is really broken, how can we fight now." Fat Lei adjusted the aperture while wondering aside.

Gudong, I swallowed instinctively when I saw this scene.Because I know that the splicing of body parts is a necessary step in the dismemberment case. According to Brother Ming's usual style, he will definitely call me to participate in this kind of "brave training" work.

After the photo was taken, Brother Ming briefly fiddled with the corpse, then turned his head, and shouted at Lao Xian who had been waiting for a long time at the periphery of the scene:

"Come in and pack and extract."

After speaking, the old sage rushed in like a hungry tiger, holding a special extraction bag in both hands.

Lao Xian spent half an hour sorting and packaging each body part, and finally put them together with the blood on the scene into a small refrigerator.Recording, extraction, packaging, and labeling, every step is meticulous and strictly abides by his professional ethics.

Captain Xu, who had been waiting outside for a long time, saw us coming out and hurried forward and asked:

"Director Leng, what's the situation at the scene?"

Brother Ming pulled off his mask and replied:
"In the sack there is only a forearm with the palm attached and a small half of the chest and abdomen. There is breast tissue on the chest and abdomen of the corpse. From this, it can be judged that the deceased is a woman. The length of the forearm of an ordinary person is about the same as the length of a person's shoe print. Through From the length of the shoe prints, we can calculate that the height of the deceased should be about 1.6 meters. Based on the thickness of the fat attached to the body, we can judge that the weight of the deceased is about 60 kg. , a total of only about six kilograms, so according to this calculation, the body should be divided into at least ten parts. The suspect should have thrown the body from west to east along the expressway, so what we need to do now is to find all the body parts. Only in this way can a specific judgment be made.”

"Okay, I'll arrange for people to search for the remaining body parts along the highway." Team Xu made a brief note and then turned and left.

"Is it so powerful?" Although the voice was very small, I could hear it clearly. I followed the source of the voice, and it was the intern girl from just now.

I was about to have a seizure when I was dragged away by Brother Ming.Seeing no one around, he let go of my hand and handed me a cigarette.The two of us looked at each other speechlessly, and after about half a cigarette, Brother Ming said to me:
"Xiaolong, tell me what you think about this case."

"I knew you were going to ask this." I exhaled a puff of smoke and muttered impatiently.

Brother Ming ignored my dissatisfaction and still looked at me quietly.As my father's favorite student, his level is naturally not generally high.He often tested me in different ways. I don’t know how many times I have encountered such a situation in the past year. I sighed and answered bravely:
"This is a case of homicide and body dismemberment, which can be concluded. And I dare say that the suspect drove a car to throw the body, and the suspect is likely to be two people."

"How did you analyze that it belonged to two people?" Brother Ming asked while holding a cigarette in his right hand and putting his left hand in his pocket.

"One person driving the car, one person throwing the corpse, maybe two people?" I replied confidently.

"What's the basis?" Brother Ming asked back.

"What is the basis for this? Normal people know it, right? And you haven't analyzed it? Ask me." I curled my lips a little dissatisfied.

"You, can you be more considerate? You have been working for more than a year now, why are you still the same as when you first came here?" Brother Ming pointed at me, his tone full of disappointment.

"I learned trace inspection, and there were no shoe prints or fingerprints at the scene, how can I analyze it?" Hearing his reprimand, I felt 1 upset and shouted at him at the top of my voice.

"Give you the shoe prints, and you can analyze them?" Brother Ming said coldly.

This year, I had had enough of his cynicism, panting and shouted at him again: "You think I want to analyze? If 'your teacher' hadn't forced me to go to the police academy, I would have come here Where?" When I thought of this, I became so angry that I threw the survey box in my hand on the ground.

Boom!The survey box hit the ground violently, and the survey tools inside the box were scattered all over the place.

Brother Ming watched my actions and clenched his teeth. I could feel his body trembling slightly.

Three unspoken secrets
Fat Lei, who was standing beside him, saw this scene and hurried over.

"Xiaolong, what are you doing? Now everyone is handling the case, why are you arguing here?"

I ignored his persuasion, and stared at Brother Ming angrily, waiting for his next words.

"Xiaolong, come here, be obedient!" Fat Lei pulled me aside vigorously.I flicked my sleeves and reluctantly followed behind him.

The two of us walked a certain distance, and after making sure that there was no one around, he asked in a low voice, "What's the situation? Why are you a stubborn donkey, if you say you turn your back on you, you turn your back on it, didn't you do well just now?"

"Brother Lei, we have the best relationship in the department. Tell me, why did you become a policeman?" I asked angrily.

"Uh, I haven't thought about it carefully." Fat Lei was taken aback, and replied honestly.

"You have also seen that I have been working in the department for more than a year. As long as there is a case, I will not go home for a few days and nights. What do you think we are trying to do? Yes, my father used to be the so-called criminal technology No. 1. To others, he looks great and amazing, but in my opinion, he is a very irresponsible father. During the seven years from my birth to the accident of my father, the number of times I see him at home every year is equal to one You can count with both hands." The more I said, the more excited I became, Fat Lei took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for me.

I took a deep breath and said: "When I was a child, my mother would go to every parent meeting. Do you know how many people think I am a child of a single-parent family? Every time there is a case, my father will say 'unit I have something to do, and then I won’t go home for a month, but who has thought about our mother and son? My mother retired at home early in order to take care of me. My father’s monthly salary is not enough to see a doctor. My mother In order to subsidize the family, I have to work part-time after finishing the housework at home every day. How tiring is it for my mother to follow him all her life? I sometimes feel that it is a tragedy for a woman to marry a policeman. I don’t want my children in the future I'm going back to my old ways. I was forced to be a policeman, so I can't have any enthusiasm for my work. To put it bluntly, I'm just fooling around with an iron job, but why is Brother Ming always so aggressive? Think Whip me? Want me to be like my father? Want me to throw away my wife and son and devote myself to some shitty public security work? Brother Lei, I’ll tell you right now, it’s impossible!” I threw the cigarette butt on the ground Throw it away, let out all the grievances that have been buried in my heart for many years.

"Then what's the matter with you, are you still planning to resign?" Fat Lei said abruptly from the side.

Hearing his words, I fell silent for an instant, my brain went blank, and I looked into the distance with confusion. After an unknown amount of time, I sighed helplessly.I went to the police school in college, and I really don’t know what else I can do besides being a policeman. This is exactly what the saying goes, "Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of entering the wrong profession."

Fat Lei saw that I was speechless, so he changed his usual hippie smile and said to me: "Mr. Si was in that era because there were too few people in this industry, so the situation you mentioned happened. You said that as a policeman, he could Have the heart to look at the unjustly killed corpses lying there indifferently? Men with a little bit of blood will not do this, and sometimes they are forced to do so. Since we have chosen this line of work, we must be worthy of our conscience, you say Is this the truth?"

After hearing this, I squatted aside and refilled another cigarette, remaining silent.

Fat Lei patted my shoulder lightly and said: "There are some things I didn't want to say, but today I have to tell you."

"There's no need for us brothers to hide it, just tell me." I exhaled a puff of smoke.

Fat Lei nodded:

"To be honest, don't look at Brother Ming who is always cold to everyone. In fact, he loves you the most in the department. Let's not talk about small things. Do you remember when you first went to work, you were called for three days? Yu, posting on the net for two days, and finding various reasons to ask for leave at home if you have nothing to do?"

"I remember, but didn't there be silence afterwards?" I replied absently.

Fat Lei's eyes widened and he raised his voice: "Silent? Let me tell you, this incident is quite a commotion! The case investigators of the sub-county bureau took the inspection materials for identification, but they couldn't catch your ass. Later, people complained to the leader. If this matter becomes serious, you will definitely be incompetent in the year-end assessment. If you do this for two consecutive years, you can take off your clothes and go home. Brother Ming ran to the leader, and again I begged my father and sued my grandma again to take this matter down, otherwise, with Brother Ming's strength, he would have been a regular this year."

"What?" I turned my head in surprise and looked at Fat Lei, "No one has ever mentioned this to me."

Fat Lei didn't speak, he glanced at Brother Ming who was standing in the distance, and then he turned his eyes back to me: "You know, Brother Ming is over 40 now, so it can be said that it was the last chance, next time I don't know how long it will be until a promotion. If he didn't really treat you well from the bottom of his heart, he wouldn't bother with this matter at all. And this matter can be big or small. If it is serious, you will definitely not be able to escape this hurdle , It is not an exaggeration to dismiss you."

"Fire!" Hearing these two words, I shivered in my heart.

Fat Lei flicked the cigarette ash.

"At that time, I accompanied Brother Ming to explain the situation to the leader. From the city bureau to the sub-bureau, he was scolded a lot, but after the matter was over, the first thing Brother Ming said to Lao Xian and me was:' Don't let Xiaolong know about this, he is young and can't bear this kind of blow, what's going on, we brothers should take more care of it.'"

When I heard this, I didn't know how to answer. I stared straight at Brother Ming, who was silently picking up things on the ground in the distance. At this moment, I was full of regret for the action just now, and there was no trace of anger in my heart. meaning.

Fat Lei exhaled a puff of smoke, turned his head and said to me: "Xiaolong, to be honest, it is fate for us brothers to work together. Regardless of the teacher, the three of us love you brother from the bottom of our hearts. Although brother Ming usually I'm stricter with you, but it's for your own good. If you say something that shouldn't be said, don't say 20.00%, if you can put [-]% of your heart in your work, he won't treat you like this, don't you think?"

"Yeah." I nodded seriously this time.

Fat Lei snuffed out his cigarette butt and said to me with a smile: "It's okay, I'll be with your brother in the future, if there's anything, my brother will stand up for you, and I will never let my future siblings complain."

"Hehe." The corner of my mouth grinned slightly, and my heart was instantly relieved.

At this moment, Brother Ming walked up to me, handed the survey box that had been packed in front of me, and said very seriously: "Take it!"

"Oh." I lowered my head and took it with both hands.

"This is the first and last time. The survey box is the 'gun' in the hands of our technicians. Abandoning the 'gun' on the battlefield is a deserter. It is a coward. I don't want my teacher's son and these two words It's related, do you understand?" His tone did not allow me to refuse.

"Understood!" I still nodded reluctantly.

As soon as I finished speaking, squeak, Team Xu's police car stopped outside the guardrail. He rolled up the window and stuck his head out, and shouted at us: "Director Leng, corpses were found at both ends of the expressway. , and a bag with a human head in it."

Hearing this, Brother Ming turned his head to us and said, "Hurry up and get in the car and get to work."

I didn't dare to be negligent this time, so I followed behind him and got into the car.

Four Corpses Puzzle
From the first scene, we ran all the way along the highway. It took us a whole day to find a total of 11 sacks, which were very close to what Brother Ming estimated.

When the investigation of the last corpse site was completed, Brother Ming pinched his chin thoughtfully and said to everyone: "The suspect is one person, and there may be a field planted at home."

"What? How did you figure it out?" I stood by and asked curiously.

"First of all, judging from the number of body parts, the suspect must have loaded all the body parts in some kind of vehicle and threw them along the highway. In this way, the vehicle used by the suspect can be ruled out as having a weak loading capacity. Motorbikes, battery cars. In addition, the dumping point is a highway, and agricultural tricycles are prohibited from entering. Therefore, the vehicles driven by the suspect should be cars and vans."

"Secondly, I found a detail in these 11 sites, that is, on the outside of the guardrail of the expressway corresponding to each package of body parts, there were scratches of floating ash."

"Scratches?" I asked instinctively when I heard this term linked to my subject.

"It is impossible for the guardrails on the expressway to be cleaned frequently like those in our urban areas, so as long as no one touches them, the ash layer on the guardrails should be intact. But the strange thing is that these 11 corpse dumping points, The floating ash on the guardrail has been touched by people, so I have reason to suspect that this phenomenon is likely to be caused by the suspect touching the guardrail of the highway during the process of dumping the body. In other words, the suspect is not Instead of throwing the body out of the car while it was in motion, the car was stopped and the body parts were thrown out of the car."

As he spoke, he took out the densely written on-site investigation record book, pointed to a line of data and said:

"Let's look at the distance from the body parts to the guardrail. Basically, they are within the range of one to two meters. If two or more people are throwing the bodies, the distance is obviously a bit close. After all, the sacks containing the body parts are only About six kilograms, based on normal adult physical strength, two people are enough to throw this bag of corpses farther."

"Because there are often large trucks passing by our city, in order to prevent trucks from hitting the guardrail and rolling over, the guardrails of this section of the expressway in our city area are relatively high, about 1.61 meters above the ground. The guardrails on the expressway are arranged horizontally. It is divided into upper, middle and lower floors. Except for the gap in the middle, each layer is a 35 cm wide wave-shaped anti-collision steel plate. From the photos taken by Jiao Lei, it is not difficult to see that the outside of these three layers has a large area The floating ash was wiped off, and there were rectangular scratches on both sides of the top layer of the guardrail at each scene. This kind of plaque was probably caused by the two sleeves of the suspect touching the top. , so that we can roughly know the method of throwing the suspect’s body.”

"That is to say, the suspect stopped the car, held the sack with both hands, stood close to the outside of the guardrail, and then threw the body parts on the grass outside the guardrail?" I added opportunistically from the side.

"Yes, what Xiaolong said is right." Brother Ming agreed.

"Then how does this mean that the suspect is alone? I still don't understand." I frowned and asked again.

"This needs to be analyzed from the perspective of criminal psychology. The main purpose of the suspect's body throwing is to prevent people from finding out. Of course, the farther the better, this can also explain why the suspect sticks to the guardrail to throw the body. It can be said Throwing the burlap bag containing body parts to a distance of one to two meters is already his limit; if the suspect has helpers, this will definitely not be the case.” Brother Ming took out cigarettes from his pocket and distributed one to each of us. branch, explained.

"That's right." I nodded.

"Then how do you know that the suspect has land at home?" After solving a mystery, I asked another question.

"This can be seen from the burlap sacks that pack the corpses. Because the sacks have good air permeability, you don't have to worry about moldy when you use them to store grain for a long time. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is only suitable for planting crops. Only people with good connections will use sacks. The suspect had 11 sacks for his body. If his family didn’t have any fields, it would be impossible for him to take out so many at one time. Of course, this is just a direction of my guess, and it remains to be seen corroboration of physical evidence."

"The suspect drove a vehicle and dumped the corpses one by one from west to east. The distance between them is more than 50 kilometers. All of them are within the jurisdiction of our Yunxi City. The last bag of corpses is less than three kilometers away from the next toll booth. distance."

"The interval between each package of body parts is exactly about five kilometers, which shows that the suspect has made strict calculations when choosing the location to dump the body. Xiaolong, give me an analysis, why did the suspect choose to dump the body in our city?" Brother Ming turned his head to me and asked.

"Is it because he knows our environment better?" I replied according to the logic of normal people.

"You are generally right. Because our city is a famous mineral resource city, the south of the expressway is basically a subsidence area. The so-called subsidence area is the area where the surface is subsidence caused by the mining of mineral resources. This type of area is uninhabited. The 50-odd kilometers that the suspect chose are basically the same situation. Except for our place, there are basically people living on both sides of the expressway in other sections. If the suspect doesn’t know our city well, he won’t choose this place. A section of no man's land is used as a place to dump the corpse." Brother Ming said as he snuffed out his cigarette.

"But even if you know so much, isn't it still not targeted at all?" I asked with a frown.

"Now the scene is basically fixed, let's go back and put the corpses together." Brother Ming finished speaking, grabbed the last bag of bloody corpse parts, and put them in the extraction bag that Lao Xian had prepared long ago.

It's two o'clock at night.Dissection room.

At this time, the dissecting table was full of body parts. After preliminary DNA identification, these blood-stained body parts belonged to the same person, and the internal organs of the deceased were packed in a large plastic basin. , exuding a disgusting stench of corpses.

I stood aside pale with a mask on.

"Guoxian, lower body."

"Here, Brother Ming."

Click, click, Fat Lei changed his posture and recorded the whole splicing scene in detail with the camera.

"Xiaolong, go and see if the internal organs of the corpse are there." Brother Ming turned his head and said to me.

I nodded feebly, turned and walked towards the plastic basin containing the viscera.The closer the distance, the more obvious the rancid smell. When I was one meter away from the plastic basin, my stomach suddenly turned upside down. Feeling unwell, I walked quickly to the sink. "Wow!" The food in my stomach could no longer be controlled, and I threw up my dinner in the sink.

"What's the matter, Xiaolong?" Fat Lei hurriedly put down the camera, and ran towards me quickly.

"No, no, nothing. Just spit it out." I turned pale and waved my hand at Fat Lei feebly.

"Jiao Lei, leave him alone, he has to get used to this situation." Brother Ming's words reached my ears very coldly.

I don't ask for comfort, but don't add insult to injury either.Hearing what Brother Ming said, I clenched my hands, clenched my teeth, and glanced at him resentfully. The good feelings I had just had for him were blown away by this sentence in an instant.

"Go and do your work, I can do it." I gritted my teeth and said to Fat Lei.

Fat Lei patted me on the shoulder, turned around and went back to the dissecting table.

I unscrewed the faucet, rinsed out the dirt in my mouth, walked to the oversized plastic basin, put on rubber gloves, and searched carefully in a large basin of blood-stained and smelly human organs.

"Liver, heart, lungs, stomach, large intestine, small intestine..."

Twenty minutes later, I walked up to Brother Ming with a pale face, and said angrily:

"Director Leng, the body organs of the deceased are all there."

Brother Ming was stunned by my sudden "Director Leng". He stopped what he was doing, stared at me up and down for a full minute.

"What? Is there anything else the director wants to tell you?" I asked with my eyes squinted and my head tilted.

"Just stand aside, you won't be able to help with sewing up the corpse." Probably because he sensed my strangeness, he spoke more politely.

Five Oil Splashing Noodles

After hearing this, I snorted coldly, pulled off the blood-stained rubber gloves in my hands, threw them into the trash can, and stepped back a few steps to stand beside Fat Lei.

"You, you, why are you fighting against Brother Ming again?" Fat Lei whispered to me while taking pictures.

"Listen to his tone of voice, it's so choking." I looked straight at Brother Ming who was busy on the dissecting table, and replied loudly on purpose.

"He is also doing it for your own good. Think about it, there will definitely be cases like this in the future. If you can't even hold such a relatively fresh corpse, what are you going to do with a highly corrupt corpse?"

"Then he should speak well!" I still retorted with some incomprehension.

"A person has a personality. It can only be said that you don't know him well. After a long time, you will find that Brother Ming is not what you think. But then again, Brother Ming seems to have some 'special care' for you. .” Fat Lei teased with a grin.

"It's probably my father's trick again!" I said angrily.

Just as Fat Lei was about to talk, he heard Brother Ming calling:
"Come here and take a photo of someone's head."

As soon as I heard that the head was going to be stitched together, I walked over curiously, because if I can grasp the facial features of the deceased, it will be very beneficial to the next step in solving the case.

"what!"

As soon as I came to the front, I was taken aback by the scene in front of me.The dead man’s eyeballs were swollen out of the eye sockets, and only some whitish cartilage remained in the nose. The lower lip had completely fallen off, exposing the bright red muscle tissue. Even the dead man’s ears were curled up, precariously hanging on both sides of the head.The entire face of the deceased was like a skull with some skin tissue attached. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is impossible to distinguish the true face of the deceased.

Brother Ming held the head in his hands and observed it carefully. Pop, pop, the light yellow liquid dripped down the sides of the skull.

"What is this? Is it corpse oil?" I frowned and looked at the viscous liquid on the dissecting table and asked.

Brother Ming held the head in his left hand, dipped a little yellow liquid in his right hand and rubbed it back and forth, then he put his hand close to the tip of his nose and sniffed it.

"It's not corpse oil, it's cooking oil. The dead's head was fried."

"Oil, oil, fried?" My Adam's apple twitched up and down twice. I was shocked by this conclusion.

Brother Ming hugged his head with both hands, and stepped out of the way.

"Guoxian, come here to take a sample, and take it for testing later."

Lao Xian nodded, changed a pair of gloves, took out a glass tube from the extraction box beside him, and then put a red rubber silicone sleeve on the top of the glass tube, and he gently pinched it with his right hand. Squeeze the silicone sleeve, and the pale yellow liquid is sucked into the glass tube.

After the extraction was completed, Brother Ming placed the deceased's head on the top of the dissecting table, then he picked up the hooked needle with catgut hanging on it, and sewed up the remaining skin tissue of the skull.After suturing, he turned his head and said to me: "Xiaolong, come here and see what you found on this corpse?"

Brother Ming is like this. Although he is cold to people, he doesn't take it seriously when you play tricks. I don't know how many times I argued with him during the year I came to work, but every time the result was As it is now, what should be asked is still asked, and what should be tested is still tested.To be angry with him, sometimes I feel that I can't do it myself.After thinking about all this, I walked to the dissecting table again, frowned and took a closer look at the corpse sewn like a puppet. After a few minutes, I shook my head and said, "Nothing was found."

Brother Ming tilted his head and looked at me: "Didn't you notice that there is no external injury on the body except for the cut wound?"

Under his reminder, I barely discovered this detail, so I nodded and replied:
"Well, I found it."

"It's midsummer now, the temperature is higher, and people wear less clothes. If there was a dispute between the suspect and the deceased, there should be trauma on the deceased's body surface. But so far, it seems that there are no. What does this mean? "He started testing me again.

It's all said, no matter how stupid I am, I know what he wants to express, so I replied: "You mean that the suspect may be familiar with the deceased? Kill him while the deceased is not paying attention. Then dismember and throw away the corpse?"

"That's right, is there any more?"

"Anything else?" I scratched my head in confusion.

"It seems that you still didn't observe carefully just now. The corpse watch is only one aspect, and the other aspect is the wound where the corpse was cut. The wound is very smooth. The formation of such a wound shows that the dismemberment tool used by the suspect cannot be sold on the market. Because the bone chopping knife cuts bones instantly by the action of gravity, no matter how sharp the knife is, there will be traces of fragmentation on the cutting surface of the bone, but on this corpse, I did not find such a phenomenon. This shows that the suspect has professional dismemberment tools." After speaking, Brother Ming pulled off the silicone gloves and walked towards the sink.

"Professional dismemberment tool? What is that?" I followed him curiously and asked.

"Have you watched "Chain Saw Massacre"?" Brother Ming shook off the water stains on his hands, took a dry towel, and asked while wiping.

"What? You mean, the suspect used a chainsaw?" My eyes widened, waiting for his answer.It was oil splashing just now, and now it is a chainsaw, one term after another, refreshing my bottom line again and again.

"You can't be so arbitrary, I prefer electric tools." Brother Ming replied by putting the towel on the sticky hook of the sink.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but shiver.

With that said, Brother Ming walked to the anatomy table:
"The body parts are basically like this now. The next important task is to inspect and see if we can find any valuable clues. Guoxian, the next task will be entrusted to you."

"Don't worry." Lao Xian answered confidently with a raised corner of his mouth.

After a night of high-intensity work, the four of us lay on the bunk beds in the lounge and prepared to recharge our batteries for another day of fighting.

Snoring, the snoring of three people sounded in the lounge.But I didn't feel sleepy at all, because I was "shoe shining" from the beginning to the end of this case, and it didn't play any role.

"Cars, sacks, power tools."

I tried hard to find the connection between the three, but my eyes were wide open, but my mind was blank.I don't know how long it took, and I gradually fell asleep.

Clap, clap, the sound of leather heels hitting the ground outside the door woke me up from my dream. I rubbed my sleepy eyes, looked towards the door, and found that Lao Xian was shuttling back and forth in the corridor.

After being teased by him like this, I couldn't sleep at all, so I picked up the police uniform next to the bed, dressed and walked towards him.

"Brother Xian, what's the matter?" I asked, yawning.

"Xiaolong, you're up. It just so happens that I have a result here. Brother Ming and Jiao Lei are already in the conference room. If you don't mind, you can go too. I'll print out this report and go there." Lao Xian said while busy .

"Come on, I'm going to wash up first." After finishing speaking, I walked towards the bathroom with a "chicken nest head".

After 10 minutes, I walked into the conference room, and the three of them looked up at me in unison, and I walked over to sit next to Fat Lei with some embarrassment.

"Xiaolong is also up, let's get started."

Brother Ming opened the notebook while talking, and then he distributed a cigarette to each of us and said:
"Through the splicing of the corpse, we have roughly locked in some information. After testing the stomach contents of the corpse, the deceased did not swallow hallucinogenic drugs before his death. It can be said that the deceased was conscious before death."

"The deceased was a female. By calculating the bone age, she was around 40 years old. The deceased had no trace of sexual assault. This can roughly determine that the suspect is very likely to be a vendetta and committed the crime by an acquaintance."

"The reason why the suspect fried the head and face of the deceased was obviously because he was afraid that someone would recognize the deceased. This further proves that the relationship between the suspect and the deceased is unusual."

"According to the distance of the corpse dumping, the first corpse dumping site is [-] kilometers away from Dongshan City in the west of our city, and the last corpse dumping site is only [-] kilometers away from Liuhe City in the east of our city. In addition, the suspect's attention to our city The terrain is relatively familiar, so I have reason to suspect that the suspect is either from our city or from another city not far from our city. Judging from the direction of the corpse throwing, the suspect is driving a vehicle from west to east and throwing corpses one by one , so the prefecture-level cities to the east of our city are basically not considered. If the suspect is not from our city, then Dongshan City, which is close to the west of our city, is the most likely." Brother Ming said while smoking a cigarette.

I narrowed my eyes and listened carefully to Brother Ming's analysis.

"By the way, Jiao Lei, have you adjusted the surveillance video at the toll booth?" Brother Ming added.

"It's all been transferred, I haven't had time to analyze it yet." Fat Lei said.

"Okay, you backup the surveillance video first. There are so many situations on my side, Guoxian, tell me about your situation." Brother Ming closed his notebook and tilted his head and said.

Lao Xian pushed his glasses habitually, and arranged a thick pile of test reports on the table. After one minute, he took out the report with a spiral pattern and said to us: "This is the DNA report of the deceased. I have already sent out an investigation report, hoping to find the source of the corpse through DNA comparison. But as far as it is concerned, it may take a long time, so we must start from other aspects. It can be said that if the source of the corpse is found in this case, the case is equivalent to It's broken in half."

"Well, it makes sense, it seems that you have a goal?" Brother Ming raised his eyebrows and said.

Liutu Youfang

"I can't talk about the goal, and you all know that my inspection skills are not bad, but my logical analysis ability is very poor, so I will tell you all the results I know, and everyone will add up, and maybe you will find something." The old man answered modestly.

"Okay, tell me about all the test results." Brother Ming adjusted his sitting posture and said seriously.

Lao Xian picked up the water glass and took a sip of water:
"After testing the DNA of the deceased, I sampled the sacks containing the body parts. The main component of the sacks at the crime scene was 'jute'. Jute is a tropical and subtropical crop, suitable for high temperature and humidity above 20°C. The minimum temperature for germination The temperature is 13°C. It grows on sandy loam all the year round. This kind of jute is not produced in our Yunxi City, and it is only sold in a few cities in the northwest of our city. Judging from the volume of the sack, it can only hold It is obviously a bit small to put 20 catties of items and use it to hold grain."

"Then what is this kind of small-capacity sack originally used for?" I interrupted his deduction curiously.

"I don't know about this for the time being. I need the three of you to give me an answer." Lao Xian replied after looking around for a week.

"The three of us answer?" Monk Zhang Er was a little confused.

"Don't interrupt, let him listen to the end." Fat Lei said, hitting my head hard with his right hand.

Then Lao Xian took out the second report: "I found four things at the bottom of eleven sacks: sesame seeds, broken peanut shells, dead leaves, and broken soil."

"Let's talk about sesame first. It belongs to the flax family and is the seed of flax. In our country, the main use of sesame is to extract oil. Sesame is a plant that is more drought-tolerant and is often used to mix with dwarf crops. For example, in some Some sesame seeds will be planted in the local peanut fields, so that on the one hand, the nutrients of the land can be used rationally, and on the other hand, droughts can be prevented.”

"When it comes to sesame seeds, the peanut shells are easy to explain, but why do I find broken peanut shells at the bottom? This may indicate that the sack was not filled with shelled peanuts, but peanut kernels. "

"Then let's talk about the dead leaves. Through inspection, I found that this dead leaf is the leaf of cotton. If we say that crops such as sesame and peanuts may still be seen in our city, but cotton, as far as I know, is not grown in our city. There's no one planting them here at all."

"The last is the crushed soil. By analyzing the composition of the soil, I found some trace elements in the fine sand, which are similar to trace elements in sesame, peanut shells and cotton leaves. In other words, sesame, Peanuts and cotton are crops that grow on the same soil." After speaking, the old sage put down the report in his hand.

"In other words, these three crops were grown at the same time where the suspect lived?" I asked immediately.

"Theoretically, it looks like this." Lao Xian nodded.

Brother Ming took out his mobile phone after listening, and quickly clicked on the LCD screen of the mobile phone. After 1 minute, he said, "Yes, it's what I thought. The three plants mentioned by Guoxian are all xeric plants. With our city as the boundary, all the cities in the south grow rice, and only the northwest Only a few cities in the city grow this xerophyte. The northernmost one is dominated by corn, and only Dongshan City to the west of our city grows these three crops. In other words, the suspect is likely to be from Dongshan City. "

As he spoke, he opened the phone map again, poked back and forth on the screen a few times and said, "Dongshan City has a distribution that is wide from north to south and narrow from east to west. The rural areas where crops are grown are basically distributed at the north and south ends of the city. If the suspect lives in In the far north, where it is along the river, he can throw his body in the Sishui River, which is safer and there is no need to make such troubles, so we can exclude the villages in the north for the time being."

"Next is the southernmost village in Dongshan City. There are four in total, and they are arranged in a stepped manner. The suspect dared to throw his body on the expressway so boldly, which shows that he knows the situation on the expressway very well, especially our Yunxi. The suspect must have passed by more than once, otherwise he would not be so familiar with the situation on both sides of the road. There are two highway intersections in Dongshan City, one is in the northwest corner of the city, more than 100 kilometers away from us , the other one is a little to the west of our city, the straight-line distance does not exceed 20 kilometers, and there is only one village near this highway intersection, that is Shipu Village. It can be said that people in this village take the highway rather than take the urban road It’s all convenient, so this village should be the focus of our next investigation.”

"We have just analyzed that the suspect may be familiar with the deceased, that is to say, the deceased may also be a villager in Shipu Village. Moreover, the police have not received a report of missing persons so far, indicating that the deceased is most likely a woman living alone After a while, report this situation to the brothers of the criminal police team, let them go to the village to investigate thoroughly, I believe there should be results." Brother Ming quickly analyzed to us.

I was a little dazed when I heard it.Fat Lei looked at Brother Ming with his mouth wide open, gave a thumbs up and said, "You won."

Brother Ming added another cigarette, looked at the last report in Lao Xian's hand and asked, "What is this inspection material?"

Lao Xian picked up the report and opened it:

"This is a report of cooking oil on the skull of a corpse."

"What does the report say?" Brother Ming picked up the pen and got ready to record.

Lao Xian cleared his throat:
"Through inspection, it was found that the oil on the face of the corpse was peanut oil. Through component analysis, it was found that this peanut oil contained more than 80% unsaturated fatty acids, and it also contained saturated fatty acids such as palmitic acid, stearic acid and arachidic acid. 19.9%. Through this data, I can judge that the peanut oil on the face of the corpse belongs to pressed peanut oil. This kind of peanut oil is different from the oil sold in supermarkets. The oil produced by physical pressing after frying until six to eight years old is often called the local method of oil extraction. Although the oil extracted by this method is very beneficial to human health, the oil yield is very low. Generally, this kind of craft only exists in some small private oil workshops."

"The suspect was able to take out 11 sacks at once. Sesame and peanut kernels were once contained in the sacks, and here comes another oil shop." I squeezed my chin and muttered to myself.

At this moment, Brother Ming opened his mouth: "It seems that the burlap bag used to hold the corpse was originally used to carry the oil-extracting crops. This can also explain why the capacity of the burlap bag is only ten kilograms. According to my analysis, ten kilograms should be a measurement."

Hearing this noun, I hurriedly asked:
"A measure? What does that mean?"

Brother Ming patiently explained while smoking a cigarette:

"In many backward rural areas, villagers don't go to urban areas to spend money to buy oil like we do. Most of them take the grains they grow at home to exchange in oil workshops. As long as they exchange, there will be a measurement. Ten kilograms should be A unified exchange unit, such as how much peanut oil is exchanged for ten kilograms of peanuts, and how much sesame oil is exchanged for ten kilograms of sesame seeds. This can also explain why sesame seeds and peanut shells are found at the bottom of the bag. For example, someone brings peanuts to exchange For oil, he himself would certainly not carry this kind of sack containing the measurement with him. When the money changer arrives at the oil workshop, he fills a sack with grains equal to ten kilograms, and then leaves after exchanging for edible oil. Therefore, only the oil workshop will provide this kind of sack.”

I clapped my hands and said excitedly: "Now it is becoming clearer and clearer. The suspect is likely to live in Shipu Village, has a car, and operates an oil workshop. The village is such a big place, so we can find the suspect directly." People!"

"Do you have evidence for concluding the case?" Brother Ming poured a basin of cold water down.

Indeed, all of these are just our inferences, and finding conclusive evidence is the key.

Brother Ming took his eyes back from me, and said to us: "I'll first tell the brothers of the criminal police team what we have so far, and wait for their investigation results, especially the source of the corpse, this must be resolved. Because the motive of the suspect in the corpse dismemberment case is likely to be hatred, it is particularly important to investigate the social relationship of the deceased.”

The old sages from Qixiong
As soon as Brother Ming finished speaking, he called the criminal police team, and we temporarily got up and left the conference room.As soon as Lao Xian walked out of the door, he went straight into the laboratory. According to him, this is his other home.

"Hey, let me say Brother Lei, you said that Lao Xian stayed in the laboratory all day long, and he didn't bother him. I was so tired just looking at it." I stood beside him and went to the laboratory through the crack of the door. I took a look.

Fat Lei picked his nostrils in ecstasy while answering:
"He's tired? He's been like this since I first went to work." After speaking, he curled his fingers and flicked the black mass into the trash can.

"I just don't understand, is Lao Xian a little too crazy?" Saying that, Fat Lei and I walked side by side through the door of the laboratory.

"If you want to say why Lao Xian is like this, there is a reason for it." I was just about to walk into my office when Fat Lei said abruptly.

I am a fortune teller, and I like "gossip" the most. When I heard this, I immediately became energetic:

"Why?"

Hearing what I said, Fat Lei stopped in his tracks, raised his eyebrows with a wicked smile and said, "Want to know?"

Looking at his expression, I instantly understood what he meant. No one in the department could understand Fat Lei better than me. It wasn't the first time I had experienced his tactic of seeing a rabbit and not throwing an eagle.

"Brother Lei, come, let's talk in detail in the office." I stood at the door and waved to him.

"Okay!" Fat Lei heard me say this, quickly understood, rubbed his hands with a smile and flashed into my office.

Pa, I threw a pack of Yuxi cigarettes on the desk in the office.

Fat Lei rolled his eyes and shook his head:

"Not sincere enough..."

Before he finished speaking, I took out two bags of drunkard peanuts from the drawer.

"Oh, I'll go, take out any other private goods!" Fat Lei got up from his seat happily.

"Hush! Of course there are good things to entertain Brother Lei. Wait a minute. I'll lock the door. If Brother Ming comes over, I'm dead!" I tiptoed to the office door, closed it gently, and Carefully twisting the door lock, turned around and winked at Fat Lei and said:

"Wait."

I took small steps and walked to a metal cabinet, quickly took out six cans of wine imported from Germany, and held them in my arms.

"How is it? Brother Lei, are you strong?"

"Do you dare to drink at work?" Fat Lei said while wiping his mouth with his hands.

"Come on, it's just you and me here, we brothers don't pretend. Anyway, we are waiting for the results from the criminal police team, and we don't know when there will be news. Let's have a few sips first, and take a nap at noon later." Feel better, more comfortable than anything else."

Boom, boom.I opened two cans together, and stuffed one of them into Fat Lei's hand.Then he tore open two bags of drunken peanuts, and handed him another bag.

"Come on, take one." I picked up the drink can and touched him.

"Do it." Fat Lei took a big gulp.

"Ah, cool!" Fat Lei took a sip of the drink and immediately revealed his true colors.I saw him sitting down on the desk, holding a drink can in his left hand, and stuffing a drunkard peanut into his mouth with his right hand.The peeled peanut skins are all over the police uniform, but people can't see them all. To be honest, not everyone can be as "informal" as Fat Lei.

I frowned and looked at Fat Lei, and hurriedly said:
"My brother, stop eating too much and talk about business."

"Business, what business?" Fat Lei stopped what he was doing, and asked me a little puzzled.

I put the drink on the table and said:
"I'm dizzy, dare I not remind you, you just pat your ass and leave after eating and drinking, right? It's about the old sage!"

Fat Lei slapped his head:
"Oh oh, I remembered."

After finishing speaking, he drank the last sip of the drink in the jar in his hand and wiped his mouth: "I still heard about Lao Xian from his alumni, but I forgot who it is. The reason why Lao Xian is obsessed with Check, this matter really has something to say.”

Hearing this, I tactfully opened another can of drink and put it in his hand, quietly waiting for his next words.

Fat Lei threw a peanut kernel into his mouth, took a sip of his drink and said to me: "Lao Xian was a little fool when he was young, he couldn't do anything, and people said behind his back that he lacked a root in his brain, that's why it happened. His silent character. When Lao Xian went to the police academy, he did not major in inspection, he studied investigation, but for some reason, he has a natural awareness of inspection. I heard that he just When I was in college, there was a burglary and homicide case of a very bad nature. Since the scene was cleaned by the suspect, it was impossible to start. At that time, the teacher from the police academy was invited to the scene in the name of an expert, and was responsible for investigating the crime scene. Investigation. As one of the observed students, Lao Xian also went with his teacher. After the expert team from the police academy arrived at the scene, they conducted a detailed inspection of the scene. In the end, only a few human body parts were extracted from the cracks in the bed. Hair, according to the analysis and judgment, this hair is likely to be left by the suspect, but unfortunately, the hair left at the scene has no hair follicles, and there is no way to do DNA testing, but in the end the case was settled because of these few hairs. "When it came to working hard, Fat Lei took two more sips of his drink.

"Could it be that solving the case has something to do with Lao Xian?" I asked curiously from the side.

"Of course, Lao Xian proposed a very high-end inspection method at that time." Fat Lei put down the drink can, lit a cigarette and said.

"What high-end test method?" I also took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it.

"Measure the proportion of trace elements in hair. In the era when DNA detection was considered high-end technology, this term can definitely be regarded as the high-end of high-end." Fat Lei replied with a babble.

"What's the measurement method?" I simply sat on the desk and asked with my legs crossed.

In order to let me have an intuitive understanding, Fat Lei pulled a curly hair from his head and put it in front of my eyes, and said:
"This hair, the first thing to look at is the color. The pigment particles in the hair contain a mixture of copper and iron. For example, gray hair contains a lot of nickel, golden hair contains titanium, auburn hair contains molybdenum, and brown-red hair contains a lot of nickel. Contains titanium in addition to copper."

"But these alone are not enough. Another point is to look at people's living habits. For example, people who smoke for a long time will contain a lot of lead in their hair, etc. So combining these two points, even hair without hair follicles, The trace elements contained in it are also targeted to a certain extent. Lao Xian made the trace element spectrum of the hair extracted at the scene through the instrument, and then the investigators took all the hair of the suspects for inspection, and finally locked It was at that time that his name came into being. At that time, he was in the inspection department of the school. Everyone knew about it. They heard that the inspection teacher of the school took him wherever he went. That is to say, from that time on, Lao Xian became crazily obsessed with testing, and it has been like this until now." Fat Lei said shaking his head after drinking the second can of drink.

"I'll go, it turns out that Lao Xian is so awesome." I sighed with my eyes wide open.

Fat Lei threw the empty can aside, opened the third can and took a sip: "Xiaolong, there is nothing to say about your relationship with me in our department, but the more this is the case, the more I think that as a brother, I should talk ugly words." To put it bluntly. In fact, it’s not that I’m talking about you. In our department, Brother Ming’s forensic technology is very good, and Laoxian’s inspection technology is nothing to say. Although you, Brother Lei, I can’t say that I’m good at photography, but it’s the same in the whole province. Can be ranked first. That is, you, who have been working for more than a year, have not improved at all. In fact, sometimes you don’t blame Brother Ming for calling you, we have to find the reason from ourselves, right? You are now with Brother Ming Noisy, boring. One day, if a certain case is solved because of your meticulous investigation, it will be like throwing a big mouth at Brother Ming, do you think it makes sense?"

I pondered what he said, picked up the drink and took a sip.

Sometimes it’s really not drunk and everyone gets drunk. I only drank two of the six cans of drinks before lying on the bed and falling asleep. Fat Lei’s words echoed in my confused mind from time to time.

Eight Intern Ye Qian

I don't know how long I slept, Fat Lei opened the door of the lounge carefully, and whispered to me who was rolling on the bed in only a pair of underwear:

"Xiaolong, it seems that the source of the suspected corpse has been found, do you want to go and have a look?"

"What? What is the suspected source of corpses?" I muttered, rolled over on my side, and fell asleep again.

"Okay then, go back to sleep." Just as Fat Lei was about to close the door again, I suddenly opened my eyes wide, as if realizing something, I stood up abruptly, and asked excitedly:

"Brother Lei, what did you say? The source of the suspected corpse has been found?"

Fat Lei saw my reaction, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, pushed the door open again, rubbed his beer belly and walked to me cheerfully: "Yes, as Brother Ming speculated, the criminal police team at the local police station With cooperation, a missing single woman was indeed found in Shipu Village. She was in her 40s, widowed in her early years, and had a son in her 20s who was working outside. According to the investigation, this woman has not been contacted for five or six days. The criminal police team I have already contacted her son, he rushed back and was just taken to our department, Lao Xian is doing a DNA comparison test on this man, and the result is expected to be available soon."

"Has the criminal police team found out if there is a small private oil workshop in Shipu Village?" I hurriedly asked the question I was most concerned about.

"No. There is no oil workshop in the whole Shipu Village. This is what I am wondering about." Fat Lei sat down on the head of my bed with some frustration.

"No? Is there a mistake in deduction?" I touched my pants from the bedside and put them on my legs, and jumped from the bed to the ground and asked.

"This is to borrow a sentence from the teacher. Reasoning can only indicate the general direction of investigation, and there are too many emergencies beyond our control. At least according to our inference, isn't the suspected source of the corpse a general direction? If we compare the above Well, at least we have a breakthrough, right?" Fat Lei crossed his legs and said to me while shaking vigorously.

I put on my coat and replied with a mournful face:

"I hope I can find a clue, I don't want to re-examine the scene."

Maybe many people don't know much about the term re-examination site. The so-called re-examination site means re-examination of the scene. If a case has obtained sufficient evidence during the first site investigation, then there is no need to re-examine the site. Re-examination, on the contrary, requires careful and careful repeated investigation of the site again.

In the first on-site investigation, it can be said that the physical evidence on the bright side was basically extracted, and the task of re-inspecting the scene is to extract some subtle evidence at the crime scene.According to past survey experience, if the first on-site survey takes two hours, then the re-survey will definitely take more than two hours.In this case, there are more than a dozen places where the corpses were dumped, and the intervals are more than 50 kilometers. If this case needs to be re-examined, it will definitely be a very "crazy" thing for me.

Seeing my frown furrowed, Fat Lei stood up and patted my shoulder to comfort me: "What should come will always come, and you can't hide. Let's see the results of the inspection." After finishing speaking, he walked out the door go.

I dressed in the fastest time, and as soon as I opened the door of the lounge, a woman's back came into my eyes.The girl wears a ponytail, a white T-shirt on her upper body, a pair of washed skinny jeans on her lower body, and a pair of canvas shoes on her feet. She is in her 20s and has a curvy figure.I was still a little sleepy, but when I saw this scene, I immediately refreshed.I tidied up my clothes a little, and said very politely: "Hello, what can I do for you in our department?"

The girl turned around with her hands behind her back, and a delicate oval face appeared in front of me.

Seeing her appearance clearly, I changed my expression and exclaimed: "So it's you!" The girl in front of me was none other than the intern girl from the criminal police team.

"Hey, dare you, you just woke up?" The girl said with me in a circle, looking me up and down.

Facing her naked teasing, although I was very upset, but in the spirit of "good men don't fight women", I ignored it.

But at this moment, there were very hurried footsteps in the corridor, and Fat Lei ran up to me panting heavily, swallowed hard and said: "The comparison is made, the comparison is made. The deceased is the man's mother. "

"What? Really?" I grabbed Fat Lei's left hand and asked excitedly.I had this reaction partly because of the tremendous progress the case had made, but partly because I cheered the possibility of not having to revisit the scene.

"Did you win?" Just one-tenth of a second after I shot, the girl tightly grabbed Pang Lei's right hand and asked with her big eyes blinking.From her face, I read the expression of surprise.

Fat Lei looked left and right, and finally shifted his gaze to the girl, nodded and said, "Yeah!"

I was the first to let go of his hand, rushed to the stairs, and rushed to the second floor. The girl refused to show weakness, and followed me closely.

As soon as I stepped into the corridor on the second floor, I saw Lao Xian coming out of the laboratory with an inspection report in his hand.

"Brother Xian!" I called to stop him.

Lao Xian pushed his glasses, turned around and asked me, "What's the matter, Xiaolong?"

"Have you found the source of the corpse?" I ran up to him and staggered and asked.

"It's basically certain." He opened the appraisal report and pointed to the conclusion of the appraisal and said to me.

When I took the report from Lao Xian, the girl also moved her head. Before I could speak, the girl's voice came to my ears: "The genotype of the examinee Chen Zhi, and the biological samples at the scene The probability of the genotype being mother-child relationship is 99.99999%."

Slap, I closed the report in an instant as soon as I finished reading it.

"What are you doing?" The girl frowned and looked at me resentfully.

"Girl, are you...?" Lao Xian then noticed the girl's existence.

"Mr. Chen Guoxian, I am a college student who is about to graduate from the Criminal Police Academy majoring in criminal investigation. Now I am doing an internship in our city's criminal police team for a year. My name is Ye Qian." The girl introduced herself generously.

"How do you know my name?" Lao Xian asked in surprise.

"Before I came here, I was introduced to me by my elder brother and sister from the criminal police team, saying that your corpse investigation department is the 'golden signboard' of our city's public security bureau for handling murder cases, not only you, Mr. Leng Qiming, but also Mr. Jiao Lei, But they are all very good characters, I have already heard of them." The girl said with a grin.

"Cough, cough, cough." I was a little embarrassed standing aside, because there are only four people in our department, and all three of them were introduced, but I was forgotten. What's the situation?
"What are you coughing, aren't you Si Yuanlong, the scariest trace inspector in that department? I know your name, so you don't need to pretend to cough here to remind me." The girl glanced at me and said very rudely to me. Said.

"You!" My face was flushed, but I was speechless to refute.

"Okay, why did you two hit each other as soon as we met? I have to hurry up and send the report to Brother Ming. He is still waiting to ask about the situation." After finishing speaking, Lao Xian took the report from me and turned towards the corridor. Go to the end.

"Brother Xian, wait for me, and I will interrogate with Brother Ming."

When I lifted my foot and was about to leave, Ye Qian grabbed my shoulder and asked, "What? Your department is still in charge of interviewing? Aren't these tasks always done by our criminal police team? "

I removed her hand from my shoulder very unfriendlyly, and said with a cold snort, "An intern is an intern, and she doesn't understand any rules."

"What rules?" Ye Qian asked curiously, taking a step forward.

I put my hands behind my back, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and replied proudly: "Our city's rules, generally small cases are interrogated by your criminal police team, but the murder case that our department intervenes, this interrogation job has never been done. It was our department who went first."

"Why is there such a strange rule?" Ye Qian asked a little puzzled.

Hearing this, I took out a cigarette from my pocket and put it in my mouth, and said, "Who can tell us about the physical evidence in our department? Do you know what should be asked and what is nonsense? You don’t know what the evidence is. What are you asking? Sometimes a careless word from the reporter or the person being questioned can cause a major turning point in the case. If you fail to grasp such details, you will lose your leg. The case can’t be solved either. Didn’t you see that the captains of your criminal police team are all obediently waiting in the conference room? What are you arguing about here?”

"Well, it makes sense." Ye Qian nodded approvingly.

I really don't want to entangle her anymore. Although her appearance and figure can be ranked among the beauties, those who have been to the police academy know that many girls who study detectives have violent tendencies, because the purpose of the police academy is women. Training as a man, training as a beast, even if you are not proficient in swords, guns, swords and halberds, you will not be able to graduate smoothly, especially if she is still in the Criminal Police Academy, where the training is more stringent.Don't look at the girls in the police academy who look like goddesses in casual clothes, but in fact many of them are 100% female men who can catch swords with bare hands.

Speaking of this, you may ask, how do I know so clearly, I tell you, because Ye Qian and I are in the same school.In our school, there are "Wudang" and "Wendang".Criminal investigation majors, public security management majors, and transportation majors all belong to the "Wudang" category, because students in these majors are very likely to fight gangsters during their daily work, so they are trained the most rigorously.And the trace inspection I have learned, the physical and chemical inspection of the old sage, and the criminal photography of Fat Lei are all "literary". Requirements, we basically focus on mental training.

Nine Villages "Kill Matt"

While Ye Qian was pinching her chin to think, I quickly walked towards Brother Ming's office.As soon as I walked into the office, I slammed the door shut.Brother Ming raised his head and looked at me with a questioning gaze, and I answered with a grin from the corner of my mouth.

Brother Ming said nothing, turned his head and shifted his gaze to the man sitting opposite him.

The man was around 20 years old, with dyed yellow hair, wearing a T-shirt with rivets on his upper body, a pair of black leather pants on his lower body, and a pair of strangely shaped black leather shoes with pointed toes.In terms of appearance, the man is definitely a standard country "kill Matt".At this time, the man was holding a DNA report in his hand and was reading it carefully.

About 2 minutes later, the man put the report in front of Brother Ming and said calmly, "Officer, I've finished reading it. What do you want to know?"

Seeing the man's expression, I was a little surprised. The deceased was his mother, and she was killed by such an extreme method, but I didn't see any signs of sadness on his face.

At this time, I also noticed that Brother Ming's expression was a little stunned, but it was fleeting. I saw Brother Ming took out a pen and paper and said, "Tell me about your own situation."

The man took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, crossed his legs, looked nonchalant, took a puff and spat it out comfortably, shook his long hair in front of him and said, "My name is Chen Zhi, 21 years old , now working in a barber shop in the provincial capital."

"Tell me about your family situation." Brother Ming said while recording.

"I don't have a home." Chen Zhi leaned back on the bench and took another puff of cigarette to answer.

"What do you mean by that? The deceased is not your mother?" I was a little annoyed when I watched him fool around.

"In theory." Chen Zhi turned his gaze to me and said calmly.

"You!" I was about to lose my temper when I was stopped by a look from Brother Ming.Seeing his expression, I sat down on the bench in the distance and looked at Chen Zhi in front of me angrily.

"Tell me about your mother." While speaking, Brother Ming threw a cigarette to Chen Zhi.

Chen Zhi took the cigarette with both hands, pinched it to his ear, tilted his head to look at Brother Ming, and replied, "Her name is Huang Xiufang, she is 45 years old, and I have been away from home for eight years. I don't know anything about her."

"Where's your father?" Brother Ming asked patiently, tapping the tip of his pen on the table.

"I don't know. I have been called a bastard for more than ten years since I was a child. How do I know who my father is? If you want to ask, you can ask Huang Xiufang." Chen Zhi snorted coldly and answered with a drag on his cigarette.

"What do you think about your mother's death?" Brother Ming asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the case.

"What do you think? It's completely within my expectation that she can get to where she is today." Chen Zhi took off the cigarette from his ear and put it in his hand to answer.

"How do you say that?" Brother Ming guided.

Chen Zhi relit the cigarette with the cigarette butt that was about to go out, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it vigorously with his feet, and replied with some annoyance:

"Since I was a child, Huang Xiufang has lived a rough life. She smokes, drinks, gambles, and messes around. went out to work."

"Have you been away for all these years and haven't returned home?" Brother Ming stopped writing.

"Do you think I'll come back?" Chen Zhi asked instead of answering Brother Ming.

Brother Ming heard this, crossed his hands on the table, frowned and asked:

"Do you know who Huang Xiufang has a good relationship with in the village?"

Chen Zhi patted the soot on his body and said:

"I remember when I was a child, the old man Xie from the south of the village often came to her, but I don't know anything else."

Brother Ming's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked:

"Do you understand the situation of the old man Xie?"

"He died a few years ago. Huang Xiufang definitely didn't kill him. Don't worry about that." Chen Zhi replied, tossing his hair.

"Why did you die?" I asked at the sidelines.

"I don't know exactly how he died, but he died anyway." Chen Zhi was a little impatient.

Brother Ming thought about it for a while, then asked:

"Usually Huang Xiufang lives alone at home?"

"It should be." Chen Zhi replied as he snuffed out the cigarette.

"Okay, that's all for today's questioning. We'll contact you if there's anything else we need." Brother Ming picked up the note paper and asked Chen Zhi to sign on it, then turned and left the office.Lao Xian followed behind and walked out.

Chen Zhigang was about to get up and leave, so I pushed him on the seat, looked at him straight and asked, "Brother, let's have a good chat, I won't take notes."

With force, Chen Zhi shook my hand away from him, sat down on the seat again, and said impatiently: "If you have any questions, hurry up."

"Has there been an oil workshop in your village before? Answer me after you think about it." I asked.

"Old man Xie is the owner of an oil workshop."

"What? Why didn't you say such an important thing just now?"

"Then you didn't even ask." Chen Zhi's face turned pale.

"Then now that old man Xie is dead, is the oil workshop still open?" I calmed down my excitement and hurriedly asked.

Chen Zhi crossed his legs, and continued to smoke another cigarette:
"It was turned off a long time ago, and now I get oil for every phone bill, who has the spare time to extract oil?"

"Tell me about the basic situation of the old man Xie." I took out the notebook and pen I carried with me from my pocket.

"His name is Xie Hanguo. If he didn't die, he would be 67 or [-] years old now. There seems to be a son named Xie Wenle in his family. He used to be a farmer, and he doesn't know what he does now. That's all I know."

I listened and recorded carefully in my notebook.

"Okay, I understand the general situation, you go back first, I will call you if there is any situation."

"No, I'm very busy, and I don't want to receive any more calls from you." Chen Zhi stroked his hair coolly, and walked out of the office.

After Chen Zhi left, I turned on the computer, logged into the Population Information Network, entered Xie Wenle's name in the name column, and knew that his residence was in Shipu Village, Dongshan City. It was not difficult to find out his specific address. .

In less than a minute, I printed out two sheets of materials with the basic information of Xie Hanguo and Xie Wenle.

I folded the paper and put it away carefully. When I passed the meeting room, I saw that it was full of people, and the criminal police team and the police from the police station were circulating the transcript of the interview just now.

I winked at Fat Lei who was sitting at the door, Fat Lei understood, got up and walked towards me.

"What's the matter, little dragon?"

"Go, talk to the office." I smiled mysteriously.

Pa, after the office door was locked by me, I took out the two printed papers from my pocket and handed them to Fat Lei.

"What is this?" Fat Lei took it with both hands.

"Brother Ming missed a question just now. The deceased Huang Xiufang had a relationship with a man named Xie Hanguo before. Although Xie Hanguo is dead, his son still lives in the village. I also asked about an important situation. Xie Hanguo used to be It is not uncommon for an oil shop owner to have that kind of sack at home. Do you think his son Xie Wenle did it? We assume that Xie Hanguo had a conflict with the deceased, and then his son avenged his father. Do you think there is such a thing? A possibility?" I said my conjecture happily from the side.

"Well, there is definitely such a possibility." Fat Lei replied in full agreement.

"Another point is that the suspect may have driven a vehicle to dump the body. Although the air permeability of the sack is good, the gap in the bag is relatively large. The blood on the body will definitely seep out of the sack. Even if he washes it with water, I believe it won't be cleaned up so cleanly, we just need to see if there is such a car in his home, and then ask Lao Xian to use reagents to test whether there is any DNA of the deceased in the car, won't we be able to identify the real culprit?" I said more and more excited.

"It makes sense. Let's tell the brothers of the criminal police team about this situation now and let them investigate." Fat Lei was about to leave when I grabbed him.

"Brother Lei, are you out of your mind? Let a large group of criminal police investigate, and the suspect will definitely be scared away. We don't have any conclusive evidence now."

"Then what do you mean...?" Fat Lei seemed to understand something.

"It's just in the afternoon, let's wait for the sky to get darker, and go to the village to check the situation first. If Xie Wenle's home really has a car, then he has the conditions to dump the body. The suspicion must be the biggest, and then we will notify the old sage to come and check .” I myself have a little Jiujiu in my heart.I didn't mention brother Ming at all here, I just wanted to fight for my breath by not steaming the buns.Even a little girl who was an intern made fun of me, which really made me a little unbearable. It can be said that it touched my bottom line.

When Fat Lei heard this, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. We have been together for so long, and some things have long been tacit understanding, so he said to me: "Okay, your brother, I will help you fight this. I will find out later A civilian car came over, and the round trip was only more than 50 kilometers away, not far away, this matter is on my shoulders." Fat Lei patted his chest and assured me.

"Brother Lei, you are really interesting!" I snapped my fingers.

In the evening, Fat Lei and I sneaked out of the department while everyone was discussing the case.Fat Lei inserted the ignition key into a white Poussin car with a cigarette in his mouth. I sat in the passenger seat and stretched back vigorously. I saw the burning clouds in the sky through the windshield, and I felt very comfortable.At this time, I fantasized countless times in my heart that this Xie Wenle is the suspect we are looking for, I fantasized about brother Ming's surprised expression when I caught the suspect, and I also fantasized about the girl named Ye Qian applauding me Appreciated sight.

In this way, Fat Lei and I drove towards Shipu Village in Dongshan City full of hope.

Ten amazing layers of soil
According to the population information registered on the public security website, the two of us quickly found Xie Wenle's residence in the village, a spacious courtyard with humming noises from time to time.The yard faces east and west. There is a big red iron gate covered with cracked paint marks. On the south side is a dirty ditch. The drainage pipes in the yard continuously discharge sewage. It's a highway guardrail.On the east side of the yard is a large cotton field, and on the west side are scattered families.

I could smell the pungent stench when I stood ten meters away.

"I *, this Xie Wenle doesn't extract oil, but raises pigs instead!" I said while pinching my nose.

"No wonder I live in the southernmost part of the village. The smell is really unbearable for most people, especially in summer." Fat Lei also imitated me and pinched his nose.

"Let's not just complain, hurry up and see if there is a car in their yard, it will be dark soon." Fat Lei added.

"Your figure is too big and conspicuous. Just squat in this cotton field for a while, and I will come whenever I go." After I finished speaking, I lifted my foot and walked to Xie Wenle's residence.

It took only one minute from the cotton field to the yard. I walked carefully to the door and looked into the yard through the crack of the door.

I saw a 35-year-old man in the yard feeding the pigs with a large pot of leftover rice. There was only an electric tricycle parked in the yard to hold swill.The distance the suspect threw the body was more than 100 kilometers back and forth. Even if the battery car was fully charged, it would definitely not be able to make a round trip.

After seeing all this clearly, I returned to the cotton field with a disappointed face.

"Xiaolong, what's the situation?" Fat Lei saw me walking over listlessly, and asked hurriedly.

"Except for an electric tricycle, there are no other means of transportation in the yard." I squatted down beside Fat Lei and replied weakly.

"Then the vehicle he threw his body in was borrowed?" Fat Lei made a hypothesis from the side.

"What you said is not impossible, but who does he care about borrowing from?" My eyebrows twitched into a ball.

At this moment, Fat Lei's cell phone rang.

"Who's calling?" I asked.

I saw him talk briefly to the other end of the phone, then turned to me and said, "Brother Ming called, saying that the deceased's clothes were found, and Lao Xian has already obtained the results of the test, let us go back quickly, there may be some Discover."

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up." I patted the dust off my body and got up and said.

Nearly an hour later, Fat Lei and I returned to the meeting room in a hurry.

As soon as I entered the door, I grabbed the kettle and poured a glass of water and drank it in one gulp. Then I wiped the water from the corner of my mouth and sat down on the seat, asking, "What's going on?"

Hearing this, Lao Xian opened the inspection report: "Colleagues from the criminal police team found another sack by the highway, which contained clothes and shoes. I tested the DNA in the sebum on the clothes and basically proved that these pieces The clothes were worn by the deceased Huang Xiufang during his lifetime. And through the deceased's shoes, I have determined the approximate time of death of the deceased."

"What? How are you sure?" I asked hastily.

At this moment, Brother Ming turned on the projector in the conference room, and a photo of black sneakers covered in mud appeared on the screen.

Lao Xian got up and stood next to the screen and explained: "It is not difficult to see from the above that there is a lot of mud on the feet of the deceased. According to the investigation, in Shipu Village, there are basically dirt roads, and this kind of situation will appear on the feet of the deceased. , there is only one possibility."

"Did the deceased step on it on a rainy day?" I hurriedly answered.

"Yes, there is only one possibility. According to the weather forecast, there was an extremely short rainstorm in Dongshan City three days before the body was found. There is so much mud on the feet that it is very difficult to walk. According to the Under normal circumstances, if the deceased returned to his home, the first step must be to shovel off the dirt on his feet. Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that she was killed before she had time to clean it up. From this, I can roughly infer , the deceased was killed around July 7. According to Brother Ming’s analysis of the corruption of the corpse, it was basically close to three days. Combining these two points, the time of death of the deceased can be basically judged.” Lao Xian explained on the side .

"The time of occurrence of the case has been determined, which is of no obvious help to the detection of the case." I shrugged and said.

"Listen to your Brother Xian's words." Brother Ming tapped his fingers on the table and said to me.

I rolled my eyes at him and looked at Lao Xian.

Lao Xian flipped through the next photo and said, "This photo is a cross-section of the soil layer on the sole of the deceased's shoe. Through this, we can analyze where the deceased went before he was alive."

"Is this all right?" I was a little surprised.

Lao Xian adjusted his glasses and said: "Let's look at the first layer, which is the layer closest to the sole. In this layer, I found a lot of organic and mineral components. This kind of soil is not common on the road. It will appear, only in the fields where crops are planted, which means that the deceased may have been in the fields before he was alive."

"Next is the second layer. I found a small amount of gangue and fine sand on this layer. These ingredients mostly exist on the bare road. That is to say, after the deceased left the field that day, he ran to the On the way to the village."

"The next third layer is also the layer that puzzles me the most, because I found the composition of the bedrock in it."

"What's bedrock?" I asked puzzled.

"If you simply explain it, it may be a bit boring. Let's give an example. If we dig a deep hole in the ground, we will find that the soil is actually layered. According to the division of geologists, it can often be divided into five parts. The first layer is the O layer, also known as the organic fallen leaf layer, and this layer is only about ten centimeters from the surface."

"Further down is the A layer, the leaching layer. The A layer is composed of the topsoil layer, which is easy to loosen, dark brown in color, and the general thickness can reach 25 centimeters."

"Then there is the B layer, the sedimentary layer, also commonly called the subsurface layer, which is composed of clay and other microparticles leached from the A layer, which is lighter in color and is between 30 and 100 centimeters thick."

"The fourth layer is the parent layer, which contains only partially weathered rock and is usually in the range of one to two meters in thickness."

"The last layer is the bedrock layer, which contains stable minerals formed under high temperature and pressure. The thickness can exceed three meters. Generally, such bedrock particles only appear on construction sites." Yin clasped his hands behind his back and explained to me.

"Old Xian, you mean that on the day the deceased was murdered, he first went to the field, and then walked along the village path to a place containing bedrock particles, and then he was killed?" I tried my best to sort out my thoughts.

"Yes, the last layer of the sole of the deceased's shoe is the bedrock layer, which means that she has not been to other places since then. Because she has been killed at this time. Just now, Brother Ming asked his colleagues from the criminal police team to investigate secretly in the village. Let's see Has anyone in Shipu Village been digging foundations to build a house recently? If so, there is a good chance of finding clues there." Lao Xian turned off the projector and said.

"No, I've been." I said casually.

As soon as my voice fell, Fat Lei tilted his head beside me and looked at me with his mouth wide open.

"It's broken, I slipped my tongue!" I screamed in my heart.

"What, have you been there?" Brother Ming looked up at me.

Sure enough, it still didn't escape Brother Ming's ears, so I could only nod my head dully and reply: "I just came back."

"Did you find out?" Brother Ming was not angry at all because of my actions alone, but politely threw me a cigarette.

"Alas!" It seemed that I couldn't hide it anymore, so I could only tell the whole story carefully.

Brother Ming listened quietly without making a sound. He thought carefully for a few minutes before asking, "According to what you said, this person named Xie Wenle is very suspicious. You just noticed their yard There is a battery car in the house, have you noticed whether there are car tire marks on the road in front of their house?"

I was dumbfounded when asked by Brother Ming, yes, no matter whose car he drives, as long as there are traces of car tires at the door, it means that a car has been to their house, and he has the conditions to throw the body ?
"Also, have you checked Xie Wenle's life background?" Brother Ming asked again.

"No, no, no." My face turned red.

"Then why did you go to Xie Wenle's house?" Brother Ming was a little puzzled.

"Just, just, just to see if their house has a car, and if so, let Brother Xian check it out." I stammered out my thoughts.

"Isn't it easy to find out if he has a car? You can just check it online, and you have to go there in person? Whether a car is purchased or sold, it must be verified by the person, and it must be filed with the Public Security Bureau Vehicle Management Office, you know. For Xie Wenle's real identity, don't you know how many cars he has under his name if you check it online?"

I was speechless for a while when Brother Ming said that.

"Follow me into the office." Brother Ming stubbed out his cigarette butt and said to the three of us.

Eleven Women Like the Wind
One minute later, Brother Ming quickly turned on the computer, logged into the information system that only the public security bureau could access, and entered Xie Wenle's ID number.

Click, a webpage with pictures popped up.

"He only has one electric tricycle registered." Brother Ming got the result of his inquiry.

"Yes, this is the one. I saw it in their yard." I pointed to the computer screen with my right hand and said.

At this moment, Brother Ming's cell phone made a ding-dong sound.He opened the text message, and a photo of a dirt road covered with tire tracks appeared on the screen of his mobile phone.

"What is this?" I looked down and asked curiously.

Brother Ming maximizes the photos in the phone:
"This is a photo of the dirt road in front of Xie Wenle's house. I asked the criminal police team who went to investigate the village to take it just now. Xie Wenle's house is a single family house, and it is in the southernmost part of the village. No one usually passes by here, but from the photo, the road at his door This dirt road often has cars rolling back and forth on it, otherwise there would be no such large overlapping tire tracks. That is to say, cars often enter and exit their yard."

"Can you find out what kind of car it is through the tire marks?" I lowered my head and asked Brother Ming.

"Ask me? This should be your field of expertise." Brother Ming tilted his mouth and looked up.

When he said that, I simply kept silent.

Brother Ming looked at my expression, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Even experts from the Ministry of Public Security can't tell the car model from the tire marks, because there are too many tires of the same specification on the market, and the tire patterns are basically the same. It's exactly the same. Since we can't work hard on this, we can change our thinking."

"How do you say that?" I stuck my head back again.

"Xie Wenle runs a pig farm. He doesn't own a car, so why are there so many cars coming to his yard? Obviously, Xie Wenle has business dealings with these people. We just need to find out Xie Wenle's mobile phone number, See which people he often contacts, call up the information of these people, and then we will check which cars are under the names of these people. After getting the information of the vehicles, combined with the surveillance video of the toll station a few days before the incident, see if there are any No suspicious vehicles have driven along the trajectory where the corpses were dumped, so the general direction of the investigation can basically be determined." Brother Ming said while operating online.

Click, click, except for the sound of him clicking the mouse, there was no more movement in the office.The three of us held our breath and sat in our chairs anxiously waiting for the result of the inquiry.

After two full packs of cigarettes, Brother Ming's notebook was filled with all kinds of information.Suddenly he snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, picked up a pen, drew a heavy circle on a license plate number, and then said to us: "I found three suspicious vehicles in total, one minivan and two cars. Judging from the breadth of the traces, only this 'Bay D67825' van is the most suspicious. Jiao Lei, you can check all the surveillance videos you have transferred based on the photos of this car to see if this car has ever appeared on the screen. "Speaking, Brother Ming handed a printed car picture to him.

Jiao Lei took the photo, glanced at it quickly, and walked towards the door.

"Brother Lei, I'll be with you." I quickly stepped forward and followed behind him.

In the department, apart from being responsible for criminal photography, Fat Lei also has a more important job, which is to analyze and screen video data.The Criminal Procedure Law stipulates that video data is also important evidence for concluding a case. It is perfect for someone like him who is very sensitive to light sources to do this kind of work.

As soon as Fat Lei entered the office, he took out his oversized hard drive from the metal cabinet, connected it to the computer, calibrated the Beijing time, and turned on the player.

Careful friends may notice that the default setting time of the monitoring equipment during the recording process of the video often leads to an error between the time of the monitoring data and Beijing time, so proofreading the time is a very important step before watching the video.

Fat Lei first arranged all the surveillance videos at night during the time period when the crime occurred, because according to normal people's thinking, the target of throwing the corpse during the day is too obvious, and anyone with a brain would not do it.

At this time, he changed his usual habit of sluggishness, sat upright, narrowed his eyes, dragged a video into the player, clicked full screen, and then stared at the screen intently.

I saw cars passing by at high speed on the screen. After reading the first paragraph, the second and third paragraphs followed. I don’t know how long it took. Sitting by the side, my eyes were a little sore, and I fell asleep on my desk. .

The minute and second hands of the clock on the wall circle alternately in a "tick, tick" manner.

"Yes." A pleasant scream entered my ears.

Teng, I was so startled by Fat Lei's roar that I jumped up from the bench.

"What's the situation?" I opened my sleepy eyes and saw the ashtray piled up with cigarette butts beside him.

"I found the car Brother Ming mentioned." Fat Lei clenched his fists and replied excitedly.

I glanced up at the clock on the wall. The hour and minute hands pointed to [-]:[-] am, and then I looked back at the computer screen:
"Really? Where?"

"Don't worry, I'll show you." He quickly dragged the playback bar, and after finding the target, he clicked the mouse on the pause button.

"You see, at two o'clock in the middle of the night on July 7th, this car appeared on the highway checkpoint in Dongshan City. At 15:03, the car returned to Dongshan City, and I was on the highway in other cities. There is no trace of this car on the bayonet, that is to say, it has only appeared within the scope of our city, and the driving time is basically the same. How can there be such a coincidence? So I guess, this car It is very likely that the body parts of the deceased were contained on the top."

When I heard this, I waved my fists excitedly: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and find this car, let Lao Xian go to test it, if you can find the DNA of the deceased, then basically the case will be finalized."

"That's the reason!" Fat Lei also had a joyful face, closed his notebook, and walked towards Brother Ming's office.

After the news was confirmed, Brother Ming contacted the traffic police department and quickly found the place where the car was parked.What I didn't expect was that the owner of this car turned out to be the owner of a food stall in our city. His name was Li Dong, male, 38 years old.

In the evening of the next day, four people from our department followed several colleagues from the criminal police team and stood in the "Yunxi City Beer Square". Of course, the "follower" Ye Qian was indispensable here.According to the informant's report, this man named Li Dong opened a food stall in this beer square, but unfortunately there are no less than a hundred food stalls in this square, and it is still difficult to find them.

At this time, I took out a few enlarged household registration photos from my bag and distributed them to my colleagues in the criminal police team.When it was sent to Ye Qian, it happened to be the last one. She was just about to reach out to pick it up, but I turned around and handed it to Brother Ming.

At this time, everyone was focused on finding Li Dong's whereabouts in the beer square, and no one noticed the subtle changes between me and Ye Qian.Ye Qian rolled her eyes angrily and looked at me.

Seeing her expression, I smiled smugly.

"Is that the one?" Everyone said that the eyes were small, and it turned out that Fat Lei was the first to find Li Dong's position.

I looked down at the photo:
"Yes, it's him."

Just as we were about to run forward, a nimble figure flashed behind me. When I looked back, Ye Qian who was standing there just now was gone.When I came back to my senses, he had already run ten meters away.

"Oh, I'll go, this skill." I sighed in my heart.

"Police, get out of the way." Ye Qian shouted at the surrounding diners while running.

The sound reached Li Dong's ears, he hurriedly threw away the frying pan in his hand, and ran towards the back door quickly.

Seeing this, I stopped, glanced at the direction Li Dong was escaping from, turned around and ran out of the square.This beer square is also a relatively famous food stall gathering area in our city. I have been here more than once, and the road is very familiar. The back door of Li Dong’s escape is just facing a small road. There is only one exit in the small road, which is in the corridor next to it. .I walked to the exit unhurriedly, hid my body, stretched my feet quietly, and waited for the big fish to take the bait.

Sure enough, in less than 2 minutes, a man was tripped by me, and I saw that it was Li Dong. Before he got up, I sat on his buttocks, and then folded his wrists with both hands, causing him to groan on the spot in pain. Call.

Hu rumbling, a series of footsteps came from behind me, and Ye Qian was the first to appear in front of me.When she saw that Li Dong had been subdued by me, she asked in surprise, "Why are you so fast?"

Seeing that almost all the people from the brigade had arrived, I got up and clapped my hands and replied: "I said, Intern Ye, you need to use your brains when arresting people. Do you know that you have committed a big taboo of arresting people? You just did that As soon as I shouted, anyone with a little ghost in their hearts would know how to run, if I hadn't figured out the road conditions in advance, could I catch people so easily?"

"Hmph!" Ye Qian turned her head away from me when I said that.

At this time, Li Dong has been handcuffed by his colleagues from the criminal police team.

"Officer, that's the only thing I've committed. As for handcuffing me?" Li Dong looked at the handcuffs and said helplessly.

"Shut up!" I grabbed a black hood and put it on his head.

Twelve Black Heart Oil

Since Li Dong was suspected of being involved in the case, he was taken directly to the interrogation area of ​​the criminal police team.

You may not be very clear, there are two kinds of rooms in the criminal police team that can be interrogated, one is called the interrogation room, and the other is the interrogation room.

The interrogation room is generally used by ordinary people to report crimes or invite witnesses to come and talk. The layout of this room is no different from that of an ordinary office. It is to create a relaxed conversation environment.

The interrogation room is very different, because there is only one kind of person entering the interrogation room—the suspect involved in the case.The structure of the interrogation room is relatively complicated. It is divided into two areas, the interrogation area and the suspect restraint area, which will be divided by iron railings.The interrogation area is the work area where the police take interrogation records. It is generally equipped with computers, desks, sofas, chairs, etc., while the suspect confinement area has only one thing-the "tiger stool".

The tiger stool was originally a unique instrument of torture in the old society. It exerted unbearable pressure on the legs and knee joints to achieve the purpose of torturing and interrogating the victim.But after the founding of New China, this instrument of torture has been abolished.

The stool used by the Public Security Bureau is called "Tiger Stool", which is a kind of joke in our own house, mainly for deterring criminal suspects, not for the function mentioned above.

This "tiger stool" is actually an iron chair fixed on the ground. There are two circular shackles at the lower end of the chair, which can fix the feet of the person sitting on it; The retractable iron ring is used to control the suspect's hands; on the back of the chair, there is a police rope. The purpose of hanging the police rope is to tie the suspect's entire upper body to the chair to prevent him from self-harm.This kind of stool can restrain the entire body of the suspect, so the person sitting on it feels very uncomfortable.According to the current requirements of the Ministry of Public Security, the "tiger stool" is the equipment that must be equipped in the interrogation room of the criminal police team at the grassroots level.

At this time, Li Dong was tied and handcuffed to the "tiger stool" by Wuhuada.

"Officer, if it's like this, I've committed such a trivial matter!" Li Dong sat on the chair with a sad face, watching several investigators put shackles on his feet.

Brother Ming ignored it and took out a pen and paper.

Except for a few people in our department, the other investigators walked out of the interrogation room very interestingly.

I turned my head to look at Ye Qian who had no intention of leaving, and asked, "Why are you still standing here?"

"Why not, just take a look." Ye Qian said innocently.

"Do you understand the rules? In this kind of case, all the interrogations are from our department." I reminded from the side.

"I know, you're asking, can't I just listen?" Ye Qian quibbled.

While I was arguing with her, Brother Ming tilted his head towards us:
"Your name is Ye Qian, right? Captain Xu is your uncle?"

"Yes, Director Leng." Ye Qian looked at Brother Ming with admiration.

"Will you use recording software?" Brother Ming pointed to the computer next to him.

"Yes, Director Leng." Ye Qian seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.

"Okay, then you open the note-taking software to record, I won't write by hand today." Brother Ming put the pen cap back on the pen.

"Okay." Ye Qian excitedly walked to Brother Ming's side, and skillfully turned on the computer.

"So it's a relationship household!" Although I don't know if I count, but I despise this kind of people very much. The video of this ignorant little girl in front of me made me feel a little more disgusted in my heart.

"Well, Ye Qian, you are not allowed to interrupt when I am asking, just keep recording, understand?" Brother Ming reminded kindly.

"Okay, Director Leng." Ye Qian nodded seriously, and then put her hands on the keyboard.

Brother Ming took out a few cigarettes from his pocket, handed them out to us one by one, and then asked Li Dong, "Do you know why the Public Security Bureau asked you?"

"I know!" Li Dong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Then tell me." Brother Ming got up and walked to him.

"Is it because I refined black heart oil?" Li Dong looked up at Brother Ming and asked tentatively.

"Black heart oil?" Hearing this, Brother Ming stopped and frowned.

"Apart from this, is there anything else? Think about it carefully." Brother Ming patted his shoulder with his hands.

"No, I've never done anything illegal, and I wouldn't have done it if my friends hadn't pulled me along." Li Dong shook his head like a rattle.

"Think about it again!" I yelled at Li Dong.

"It's really gone." Li Dong almost burst into tears after being messed with like this by me.

Brother Ming turned his back to me, raised his left hand in the air, and made a pause gesture to me:

"Okay, let's talk about your refining black heart oil first."

Li Dong nodded vigorously, and said: "I remember that two years ago, I rented a stall in the beer plaza of our city to work as a food stall. After being introduced by someone, I met a friend named Xie Wenle. He said that their family used to I have opened an oil workshop, and seeing how big our food stall is and how much oil is used, I would like to partner with me to open a small oil refinery."

When I heard the word "Xie Wenle", my eyes jumped involuntarily.

Brother Ming heard this, turned around and glanced at us, his expression softened a lot.

Li Dong took a deep breath, and then said: "At that time, I had a little spare money, Xie Wenle's family had a place, and he lived in a village in Dongshan City, and almost no one would check there, so I patted my head , I did it, and I have been doing it until now.”

"Where is the oil refining site?" Brother Ming looked down at Li Dong with his hands in his pockets.

"It's at Xie Wenle's house." Li Dong tremblingly looked up at Brother Ming.

"According to our understanding, isn't there a pig farm?" Brother Ming asked.

"The pig farm is just a cover. We dug a basement in his house, where the oil is usually refined."

Hearing this, Lao Xian's face flushed red, and his excitement was beyond words.The oil refinery was transformed from a basement, which just explains why the soles of the deceased's feet have bedrock components.

"Go ahead." Even Brother Ming, who was usually the calmest, was a little excited in his words.

Li Dong swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "I usually go to the market to collect some dead pigs, sick pigs, or some inedible pork, and bring them to Xie Wenle for processing. The oil he processed will be sent to me, and then I will sell it To the owner of the food stall."

"What do you usually use to transport these pork?" Brother Ming calmed down and asked.

"It's my minivan." Li Dong replied honestly.

"Did you drive on July 7th? Think about it carefully." Brother Ming took out a cigarette and lit one, stuffing it in Li Dong's mouth.

Li Dong had a cigarette in his mouth, took two puffs, frowned and recalled carefully: "July 7th? July? By the way, I remembered. I just sent Xie Wenle a cart of pigs on the 14th. On the 7th, the car arrived. him there."

"You two still drive this car together?"

"Xie Wenle's family depends on him to earn money alone. How can he have spare money to buy a car? Usually I send the pork over, and he refines the oil and sends it to me. After I send it over, the car will be thrown on him. In the yard, I can stop a car on the expressway and come back, which saves trouble.”

"Where are your car keys?" Brother Ming asked with his head tilted.

"It was taken away by your Public Security Bureau." Li Dong said with a sigh.

"Do you know who has the car keys?" Brother Ming turned to look at Ye Qian who was typing on the keyboard.

"At Captain Xu's place." Ye Qian replied, staring at the computer intently.

"Okay, you finish the materials here, and we'll come as we go." After speaking, Brother Ming winked at the three of us and left the interrogation room.

An hour later, Li Dong's van drove into the courtyard of our department.

The car is a red van of the "Wuling Zhiguang" brand. In the car, only the driver's cab and the co-pilot have seats, and all other seats have been removed. This is also to maximize the loading capacity of the car.

Lao Xian put on a well-sealed inspection suit and rubber gloves on both hands, walked to the front of the car and carefully searched for clues inside the car with a bright flashlight.I saw him looking around the car, pulled off the mask and said to us: "The chassis of the car was specially raised during the design process, resulting in the middle of the ground of the whole car being high and hollow on both sides, so that blood can easily flow away, and Obviously, this car has been washed out, so we can only look for blood cells in the cracks on both sides of the car."

After Lao Xian finished speaking, he took out a bottle of something like mosquito water from the tool box, and gently sprayed it on the corner of the car.

"What is this?" I asked curiously.

"Luminol, it can react with tiny blood cells and emit light blue light spots in the night. Didn't you learn it in the police academy?" Brother Ming said calmly standing beside me.

"Uh, I seem to have heard of it." I replied sheepishly.

"Yes!" Lao Xian stood in the carriage with his waist bowed, poked his head out and shouted excitedly to us.

Hearing this, I hurriedly opened the co-pilot's door and stuck my head in.

"Really, really." I slapped the co-pilot's seat vigorously and shouted.

Lao Xian skillfully opened the extraction box, took out a glass tube, and carefully extracted the test sample.I clasped my hands and watched his every move.

Afterwards, Lao Xian firmly stuck the test tube for inhaling a small amount of blood in the extraction box, then he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to us: "Give me an hour." After speaking, he plunged into the laboratory.

While our side was anxiously waiting for the result, the criminal police team also set up a net outside Xie Wenle's yard according to Brother Ming's instructions. As long as there is news from here, they can order to arrest people there.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, only the sound of the clock on the wall turning could be heard in the conference room, and everyone looked in the direction of the laboratory with solemn expressions.

It can be said that the DNA report of the blood in the car is the key evidence. Without this report, it can only prove that Xie Wenle has driven the car.Some people may ask, isn't there bedrock that can be identified?In fact, that is a big mistake. The minerals contained in the bedrock are not unique.For example, you go to the cake shop and buy a large piece of fruit cake, and cut the cake into small pieces, some of which are covered with apples and some with strawberries, they can all be called cakes , but without your knowledge, how do you prove that these small cakes were cut from a certain big cake?After all, the fruit on the cake is different.The same is true for bedrock. Rock particles containing certain minerals can be identified as bedrock, but bedrock does not only contain the only minerals. Therefore, in law, this kind of evidence is only lateral evidence and cannot contribute to the case. role.But DNA is different. Anyone with a little common sense knows that except for identical twins, no two people in the world have exactly the same DNA.Whether or not the suspect can be identified will have to wait for Lao Xian's results.

With a bang, the door of the laboratory was pushed open, Lao Xian poked his head out, and said two words very coolly to us: "Arrest!"

After hearing this, Brother Ming hurriedly poked the newly lit cigarette into the ashtray, quickly took out his mobile phone and pressed a series of numbers.

At this time, outside the courtyard of Xie Wenle's house, a dozen or so people came out from the cotton field and surrounded the courtyard.Boom, with the sound of a door breaker, Xie Wenle was caught without warning.

Four people from our department also went to Xie Wenle's residence immediately to look for other physical evidence related to the case.

Thirteen Corpse Plants
Entering the yard, passing through the pigsty, is the main room. There is a secret door on the north wall of the main room. Open the door and there is a ladder leading directly to the ground. The workshop, the workshop exudes bursts of rancid smell.The workshop is square, with dim light bulbs hanging on the roof, a large number of dead pigs piled up on the north side, a group of boilers on the east side, in which black heart oil is still being boiled, and a dozen empty barrels on the west side.As soon as Lao Xian entered the room, he picked up tweezers and took test samples everywhere in the workshop.

In this workshop, what surprised me the most was the electric cutting machine in the middle, which is the kind most commonly used by carpenters. The size of the jagged cutting piece, at this time there are still uncut dead pigs hanging on the cutting piece.

"This should be the dismemberment tool!" I said, staring straight at the cutting machine.

"Let's see if we can extract the DNA of the deceased with this cutting machine." Brother Ming said to Lao Xian who was squatting on the ground.

After hearing this, Lao Xian nodded and walked towards me.

After three hours of intense work, the case-related scene where Xie Wenle lived was basically completed.Then the four of us split up, Lao Xian and Fat Lei were in charge of going back to the unit to test the material, and I followed Brother Ming to the criminal police team, ready to interrogate the suspect.

After waiting anxiously for four hours, the good news came from the old sage. The bedrock components were extracted in Xie Wenle's underground workshop, the DNA of the deceased was found on the cutting machine, and five barrels of artificially squeezed oil were found in the house where Xie Wenle lived. The peanut oil used was the same as that of the peanut oil splashed on the face of the deceased.A chain of evidence was tightly wrapped around the suspect Xie Wenle's head like a golden hoop.

With a bang, the door of the criminal police interrogation room was slammed shut by Brother Ming.I moved a bench to sit next to Brother Ming, Ye Qian didn't know when she had already sat in front of the computer in the interrogation room.

Brother Ming didn't move too much, he opened his mouth and said to Xie Wenle: "We don't have to play tricks anymore, you should also know what you committed."

Xie Wenle drooped his head and remained silent.

"What? Want to play silence? Don't you want to say it?" Brother Ming looked at his expression, a little annoyed.

Still silent.

"A man, dare to act or not?! Do you want to inform your wife and children in the provincial capital to come and see you for the last time?"

Brother Ming has participated in so many interrogations, and he has a good grasp of the psychological vulnerability of the suspect.Before the interrogation, Brother Ming had done his homework. It turned out that Xie Wenle had a very upbeat son who was admitted to a provincial key junior high school last year. His wife also followed him in order to take care of his son.In order to earn enough for his son's tuition and living expenses, he shouldered the burden of the family alone, and stayed in that dirty underground workshop without complaint.The daily working hours are at least thirteen hours. If it is not a very strong sense of responsibility for the family, no one may be able to bear it.

Sure enough, as soon as Brother Ming mentioned Xie Wenle's wife and children, tears gushed from the corners of his eyes like a flood breaking a bank.

"Xie Wenle, I admire your sense of responsibility to your family, but I don't understand why you violated the criminal law?" Brother Ming asked.

"It's all that damned Huang Xiufang, it's all her fault!" Xie Wenle shook the iron chain on the "Tiger Stool" vigorously with both hands, growling angrily.

Brother Ming looked at the ferocious Xie Wenle and didn't speak.After a while, when his mood calmed down a bit, Brother Ming asked again: "If you have any bitterness in your heart, just pour it out."

Xie Wenle lowered his head and wiped tears on his cuffs, choked up and said: "This matter starts when my father was alive. When my father was around, this Huang Xiufang seduced him from time to time. The two of them often hang out together, in the village Gossip was flying everywhere. My mother died early, and I was the only boy in the family. My father worked hard to bring me up alone, and I didn’t have the ability to find another one for him, so since my father liked it, I had no choice but to let him go. My family lives in the southernmost part of the village, and I don't usually go to the village, and I can't stop anyone who talks about it."

"I didn't pay attention to it at first, but after getting in touch with Huang Xiufang for a long time, I realized that she just used my father as a cash cow, and took thousands of dollars from our family from time to time. My father used to be an oil producer, and our family lived in the village. It is considered rich, and my father also had two coins, but within two years, he was cheated out of it by this Huang Xiufang. Even after my father died, she still came to our house to ask for money."

"How did your father die?" Brother Ming interrupted.

"Acute heart disease." Xie Wenle replied.

Brother Ming stared into his eyes for about a minute, and then said: "Okay, you can continue."

Xie Wenle nodded dully: "At that time, all my source of income was the ten acres of cotton fields. My son was admitted to a key junior high school and needed money. How could I have so much spare money for her? I don't think so. If I don't give her money, she It’s just sapo, and it doesn’t make sense at all. Sometimes, because of face, I will give her a few dozen or a hundred and send her away.”

"But she really treats our family as a cash cow. She comes whenever she has no money, and comes whenever she has no money. I am usually easy to talk, and I have been enduring it until one night a week ago. I really couldn't bear it." Speaking of here , Xie Wenle gritted his teeth.

Brother Ming didn't interrupt, he was engrossed in staring at the man sitting on the "tiger stool".

After smoking a cigarette, Xie Wenle looked up at the top of the yellowed wall, sighed and continued, "I remember that there was a shower that afternoon, and I just brought the pig feed from the yard into the house when Huang Xiufang came. There is no need to ask at all, she is here to ask for money. But what I didn't expect was that she asked for [-] yuan, saying that she lost money in a casino outside and borrowed usury. If I don't give it to her, I will Let me see. She has performed this kind of trick many times in my house, and I didn't bother to talk to her, so I went directly to the basement to do my work. At that time, my friend Li Donggang sent me a truckload of goods. Still waiting for oil."

"Unexpectedly, Huang Xiufang took out a red book this time, which was her and my father's marriage certificate. I was dumbfounded when I saw this. She told me what "Marriage Law" she had read. This courtyard house was my father's. In my name, now that my father is dead, she is my father's spouse, and this house belongs to her. If you don't give her [-] yuan, it's okay, she will bring someone to see the house tomorrow, and she will sell the yard."

"I have also watched some legal programs on TV. If she really becomes my father's legal wife, then this house must belong to her."

"I snatched the marriage certificate from her and took a look at the photo of my dad with her, and I knew that the certificate was real. It was issued a year before my dad died. I was very happy to learn of this situation. Calm down now. Because I know that this time things are more serious than I thought."

"I took a bottle of white wine from the house and said to Huang Xiufang, I don't have 2 yuan with me, so let me collect it in a few days. She saw that my attitude had changed, and she became polite to me. She said to me, this The second thing is that she is not really being chased by usury, and she will not threaten me with a marriage certificate."

"She really thought I would give in, but how did she know that I had already made up my mind that there must be an end to the grievances between me and her. Anyway, she is a son who has no contact. I killed her. No one will suspect me. At night, when she was drowsy, I dragged her to the basement and cut her alive with a cutting machine."

"Why do you want to dismember the body?" Brother Ming asked with his right hand clenched against his chin.

"Our side is dry land, and we can't dig it up. It's not easy to bury such a large body. I can only divide her into small pieces, which is easier to deal with." Xie Wenle replied very coldly.

"Did you never think about refining the corpse into oil?" Brother Ming squinted his eyes and asked a very perverted question.

Xie Wenle looked very calm when he heard what he said:
"I thought about it, but I think it's unconscionable to do this. After all, this oil is for people to eat. I must give my son some virtue."

"Where did you throw the body?" Brother Ming looked at Xie Wenle with a slightly different look.

"I usually travel between your Yunxi City and our Dongshan City. I know that there is a section of road next to the expressway in your Yunxi City that is a subsidence area where no one lives, so I threw the divided body parts on the road. side."

"What did you use to pack the body parts?" Brother Ming began to ask questions about the details, because these small plots can only be explained clearly by those who have experienced them personally, and lies cannot be made up.

"The sack left over from when my father worked in the oil workshop."

"After you cut up the body parts, what else did you do?"

"I took a scoop of peanut oil from an oil bucket at home, heated it and poured it on Huang Xiufang's head, so that no one would recognize her," Xie Wenle replied.

"Your workshop is full of lard, why do you burn a scoop of peanut oil alone?" Brother Ming also expressed the doubts in my heart.

"Because I'm afraid that the lard will stick to the ground and the car after it solidifies, so it won't be easy to clean up, so I use peanut oil."

"You're really comprehensive enough." Brother Ming snorted coldly.

Xie Wenle blushed to the base of his neck when he said this.

"You know shame, which means that you are not a very evil person."

Brother Ming got up and walked in front of him, stared at him for a full minute, then turned and left the interrogation room.

After we made a brief handover with the criminal police team, we were ready to leave.

Just as I was about to step out of the criminal police team, Ye Qian grabbed me: "I heard from Director Leng that you were the first to find the clue of Xie Wenle?"

"What, Brother Ming said?" I was a little surprised.

"Yes, Director Leng told me personally. I just want to know how you got this clue." Ye Qian was a little bit reluctant.

"If I told you that I was the blind cat who met the dead mouse, would you believe it?" I said half-jokingly.

"You!" Ye Qian angrily stomped her feet at the door.

I put away my smile, walked to the front of the car, and glanced gratefully at Brother Ming who was sitting in the cab.The moment I closed the car door, I vaguely remembered the words my father often said to me: Only when you experience a case with your own heart can you feel the true value of being a technician.
