Fifteen years have passed, and the woods that were once lush are now a little more gloomy inside.

A gust of autumn wind blew, and a few bright yellow luan leaves swirled and fell on the ground that had long been covered by weeds and dead leaves.

Walking in it, it seems like walking in an inaccessible forest, and when you think about it, there may be Xi Ruxiang's ghost here, and the surrounding air is a little colder in an instant, adding a little weirdness.

Even though I know that this place is not far from the residential area, if it is really dark and windy, even if someone enters in a group, it will be cold and terrifying.

"I'll go, this place is really a bit evil!"

Zhang Lei looked around, gritted his teeth and said: "If that director shoots a ghost movie in this place, he definitely doesn't need to set up the scene, just pull a white sheet and float in this woods, and it is very likely that he will be scared in broad daylight." ”

"People's fears come more from their own imagination. ”

Xiao Ran sneered: "If you don't do bad things, you're not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, and if you don't scare yourself, what's there to be afraid of?"

Suddenly, Li Fangfang stopped, stared at a tree trunk not far away, and said very seriously. "Well, there seems to be a white sheet hanging on the branch in front of you. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Lei suddenly raised his head and looked ten meters away, behind a thick tree trunk, there was a faint corner of white cloth, which was blown up by the wind from time to time and then hidden behind the trunk.

"Isn't it, is this place so evil?

"Let's go, go over and have a look. ”

Xiao Ran couldn't help but wonder, who would hang a white cloth in this wood, was it out of bad taste, purely to be scary, or was there some other purpose?

In other words, the place where Xi Ruxiang's head was found was in the concave surface in front of this tree. ”

"Look at the white cloth is clean, and it can be blown up by the wind. ”

Zhang Lei's expression gradually became serious, and he said as he walked: "It's raining these days, and it must not have been hanging here for long." ”

"Could it be that someone is also chasing the old case of the year......

Before Li Fang finished speaking, Xiao Ran suddenly opened his hands to block the footsteps of the two of them.

Li Fangfang was taken aback by Xiao Ran, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Footprints!"

Xiao Ran squinted, staring at the location of the sheet containing Qian Shuangshuang's corpse fifteen years ago.

I saw a few footprints looming on the dead branches and leaves in that place.

If you look closely, you can vaguely tell that the footprints came from the north, walked up the dirt slope, came to the bottom of the big tree, then walked around the tree, and then walked down the dirt slope to the south.

"Wouldn't it be that the suspect heard about the recent old case and came here to reminisce about the years and relive the thrill of committing the crime?"

Li Fangfang immediately said: "Some perverted killers like to return to the scene, could it be that the murderer of the year revisited the old place, and then hung this white quilt on the dead branches behind this tree...... Oh, it's pajamas, not sheets!"

"It's not impossible. ”

Xiao Ran squatted down and said, "But it's also very likely that ordinary people are passing by here with curiosity for a while."

People have the psychology of hunting, and it is very possible to come to the scene of the murder back then, and then make some bad arrangements. ...... Leizi, do you have any tools?"

Zhang Lei patted his bag, took out a UV flashlight, and a steel ruler, and said happily: "Fortunately, I am dedicated and ready at all times! Although the small flashlight is not as good as the large ultraviolet inspection lamp in the team, it is enough." ...... It's a pity that there is no SLR. ”

"I can't help it, let's take a picture with my phone first, I hope my Leica lens can really shoot a DSLR effect." ”

Xiao Ran thought for a while and said: "Brother Fang, you use your mobile phone to record the video, take my mobile phone into it, and hand over my mobile phone to you for safekeeping. ”

"Okay. ”

Li Fangfang turned on his phone and joked: "We attach so much importance to it, I hope this series of footprints is not left by that guy who sneaked over curiously." ”

"Ha, you can't miss anything suspicious. ”

Zhang Lei turned on the UV flashlight, squatted on the ground and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter who left him, if it was really left by the murderer back then, then we will really be lucky, and Deputy Bureau Shi will at least cover us for a week's food as a reward!"

"Don't think about beauty, even if it is really left by the murderer, there are still 108,000 miles away from finding someone!"

Li Fangfang held up his mobile phone and teased: "Hurry up and investigate the traces, you, and go back to write a report after you finish it!"

"Don't mention the report, okay? I'm just in a relaxed mood for a moment. ”

Zhang Lei muttered, took out the gloves and put them on, held a flashlight to irradiate the subtle footprints, and put the steel ruler on the side: "The length and width of the footprints are relatively large, the length is about 27.5 cm, and the footsteps seem to be in a balance period, but they are vaguely heavier." ”

"Generally speaking, the younger you are, the heavier your feet become, and the older you get, the heavier your feet get. ”

Xiao Ran carefully took several photos, and followed Zhang Lei to another footprint to take pictures: "So this person should be in middle age, about 38 years old, the footprints are wider, judging that the person who left the footprints should be male, minus the length of the shoes, according to convention, his height is between 1.77 and 1.82 meters." ”

"About 38 years old?"

Li Fang held up his mobile phone and suddenly said: "Xi Ruxiang was twenty-two years old when she was killed, and if she lived to this day, she would be thirty-seven years old."

If this person is related to the Xi Ruxiang case back then, he and Xi Ruxiang are the same age, and Xi Ruxiang hurriedly packed his luggage from the staff dormitory before he was killed. ...... Then he is likely to be someone Xi Ruxiang knows!"

"There is this possibility, but if the owner of this footprint has nothing to do with Xi Ruxiang, then you are in vain. ”

Zhang Lei said with a smile, and put the steel ruler one by one next to a few left footprints, his face against the ground, and observed for a while under the ultraviolet light: "The size of the left footprint and the right footprint are basically the same."

However, judging from the slight depression in the leaves on the ground, the left foot is heavier. ...... It should be carrying something on your left shoulder. ”

The three of them stopped and found out that the footprints came from the bottom of the dirt slope, all the way to the south side of the dirt slope, and finally disappeared on the pile of concrete.

Then the three of them returned to the bottom of the tree and followed the footprints in a circle.

On the west side of the trunk, the footprint changed from parallel to the trunk to perpendicular to the trunk, and it was inferred that the same person who hung the white pajama from the broken trunk was the same person.

"The height of this broken branch is about one meter eight, and ordinary people can reach it with a raised hand. Li Fangfang carefully filmed all the scenes.

"The footprints are relatively fresh, and the soil brought up from the bottom of the slope is still damp and not scattered, and it must have been left between last night and early this morning. ”

Zhang Lei cautiously judged: "Overall, this person should have walked from the riverside, walked around the big tree for half a circle, hung up the white pajamas, and then left."

...... It's a big night, a person, come here, he's so bold!"

"Didn't the murderer come at night? ”

Xiao Ran took a deep breath, looked at the clean and slightly swaying white pajamas in front of him, and couldn't help but ponder for a while.

This person hung a white pajama on the trunk of the tree where Xi Ruxiang's body was dumped, what did he want to say?
