Chapter 51: In the Mountains
Mai Donghua officially went to work after the new year, the old place but with a new mood, the two parents stayed until a few days before the start of school, Du Heng took them around when he took a break, and they were nagged about marriage along the way. Both were wondering if it might really be on the agenda.
"Why hasn't my goddess posted news lately?" Ding Wen was thinking about it again, and Mai Dong remembered that he hadn't seen this ballet lady appear in front of the screen for more than a month.
"For the Chinese New Year, it must be busy, and a high-ranking family like the Ai family will definitely be even more troublesome. Mai Dong said that he understood very well.
At the beginning of the new year, there were no major cases, and several people talked and laughed happily together: "Mai Mai, let's go to the art exhibition this week, ...... in the Science and Technology Museum" Zheng Qian saw a brochure: "That artist is handsome." ”
Ding Wen glanced at it: "Your appreciation level is really plummeting, and you can be called handsome like this, so what do I call it like this? "Ding Wen's perception of his appearance has always been inaccurate.
Zheng Qian didn't bother to bother with him, and turned her head to look at Mai Dong, who looked at Du Heng with some embarrassment.
"This look ...... Mai Mai, are you and the boss going on a romantic date?" Zheng Qian asked gossipingly.
If you answer yes now, you will definitely be ridiculed: "We just made an appointment to go hiking together, and I haven't eaten the food in it for a long time, and I miss it a little." ”
"Is it the one on the mountain?" Yang Lei pushed the glasses on his nose: "I happened to be going this week, and my mother said that it was a Fu Shiling over there, so I asked her to ask for one." ”
"You're going too...... Why don't you all go together, climb the mountain and exercise in this weather. Ding Wen proposed.
Du Heng's face was dark, but he couldn't stop it, a good date between the two would be ruined by a group of bear children, which was too annoying.
The next day, the weather was beautiful, and the weather was rare in winter, so several people had a meal in the temple, begged for a peace charm, and decided to go down the mountain by a different way. Compared with the neat stone steps in front, the mountain path behind is particularly wild, the bluestone slabs wind through the forest, a little sunlight through the leaves, flashing colorful shimmers, the wind blows the leaves with a thin sound, Mai Dong took a deep breath: "I really feel that the whole lung is clean." "The only thing that is not so good is that there are not many people walking on this road, the bluestone carries the moss left by the rain a few days ago, and it will slip if you don't pay attention to it, and several people are very cautious Ding Qi is quite proud, he walked forward quickly, walked to the top of a small stone pile in front of him, looked at the few people who were still walking cautiously behind, and began to laugh: "When I came out in the morning, I heard that I was going to climb the mountain, so I wore a pair of super non-slip cross-country hiking shoes, what is called foresight, I call it foresight!"
Zheng Qian loves beauty, and wears a pair of soft-soled lambskin shoes, which are good-looking, and it is laborious to walk the mountain road, and at this time, Ding Qi is naturally unhappy, her eyes are rolled, and she points to Ding Qi's feet: "Oh, there are mice!"
Ding Qi didn't look very strong, but he was afraid of these hairy things, and when he jumped up, the hill bag was already slippery, and he leaned back and fell straight down.
This is a disaster, Du Heng, who was walking in the front, didn't have time to hold him, Zheng Qian watched him fall, and suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly ran to the front and lay on the top: "Ding Qi, are you okay, Ding Qi!"
There was a small ditch below, Ding Qi was lying there motionless, Zheng Qian was in a hurry, what should I do: "I'm sorry Ding Qi, I shouldn't be mischievous...... Sorry ......"
"Now I know. Ding Qi said lazily.
Only then did I find that there was a place to step on the bottom of the ditch, and it was obviously Ding Qi who cushioned it below, and it was not a big deal to slip and fall.
Zheng Qian put her mind at ease, took something in her hand and wanted to throw it at him, and then put it down stupidly: "Do you know that you scared me to death." ”
Ding Qi found out that Zheng Qian was actually crying, he was immediately embarrassed, and pretended to be a gesture: "The scourge is a thousand years, I am such a big scourge, how can I easily go die, pull me up, I don't know what it ......is down here" Ding Qi suddenly stopped talking.
"What's wrong?"
Ding Qi shouted, "Oh, there are dead people!"
Criminal investigation team, Ding Qi took a shower and dried his hair in the office, Du Heng looked at him coldly: "How good you are, it's like never seeing a dead person, and you jumped up in fright, and broke the person's spine in one fell swoop, yes, now you say how people die." ”
"I'm not ......" Ding Qi still felt aggrieved, the corpse was a giant, he accidentally stepped on the bag, and the maggots inside were wriggling, who could stand the situation.
"Look, Brother Yue will lose his temper later. Yang Lei patted his hand comfortingly: "It's really strange, such a small ditch is actually stacked with corpses." Thinking about helping to pull up the pile of rotten meat chops just now, Yang Lei hurriedly picked up a pack of beef jerky, he needed to calm down.
Ding Qi leaned over and picked up a piece: "Boss, do you say that they accidentally fell in and died accidentally, or did he kill them?" ”
Du Heng looked at him with mentally retarded eyes: "You also fell at the same height just now, did you fall to death?"
The people who went to visit came back: "There is a family at the foot of the mountain, they said that because the road up the mountain in front of them is well repaired, no one will pass by on the side road for ten days and a half ...... after ten days and a half here, and they have provided us with a thing "The visiting police took out a U disk: "They have packed a garden in the back mountain to plant kiwifruit, and they are worried that someone will steal or destroy it. ”
"Is it necessary to pass over there when the path down the mountain leads down?" Mai Dong asked.
"Of course, there's only one way to go. The police replied.
"Zheng Qian, you and Yang Lei see if there are any suspicious people. "There is no clue at all, so I can only wait for Wang Yue's autopsy report to come out.
Before dinner, Wang Yue came out of the autopsy room, there was an indescribable smell on his body, he didn't seem to notice it at all, and directly handed a folder to Du Heng: "Autopsy report." ”
Du Heng opened it and took a look: "Spelled out three corpses, the time of death is three years ago, two years ago and this year...... All of them were women, about thirty years old. Death...... Why are they all different?"
"Yes, the first deceased was stabbed in the neck by a sharp object, the second deceased was strangled to death, and the third ...... Drowned. Wang Yue was going to get beef jerky. Ding Qi quickly moved away: "Don't, don't eat the smell on your body later." ”
"Could it be that the murderer is not the same person?" Mai Dong asked, "The modus operandi is completely different. ”
"This is a very small chance, and the modus operandi is inconsistent in the case of murder of passion. I've seen bags that wrap corpses all of them made of the same material, and there is such a high chance that the corpse will be dumped in the same place with such precision that it will be the same person. Du Heng speculated.
Zheng Qian and Yang Lei walked over: "There is not much significance in surveillance, only in the last two months." ”
"That's really unfortunate, the deceased has been dead for at least four months, and the exposed skin is already showing white bones...... However, I also found that I found a sperm spot on the outside of the last victim's underwear...... The other two also had traces of abuse before their deaths. Wang Yue said and shrugged: "There is another major discovery, I found incense ash in her nails, so ...... Team Du may have to check out this temple. ”
"In fact, it is also very obvious, there are obviously no clues on the back mountain now, so I can only go forward to check. Mai Dong said: "Let's go to this temple again and ask who likes to go to Houshan on weekdays." ”
"Let's check it at two ends, you go to check the source of the corpse first, and let's go to this temple. Du Heng said and walked out with Mai Dong.
Two trips to this temple in one day, but the mood is completely different, Mai Dong looked at the Buddha statue with strict law and inexplicably felt that the world is really impermanent, Mai Dong stepped into the Buddhist temple, it was already a little late, the bell of the evening class rang, and the little novice stepped forward: "Donor, I'm sorry that the evening class time has come, we are no longer entertaining." ”
Du Heng took out his ID: "Police, we are here to inquire about a case." ”
Xiao Shami was stunned: "I'm sorry, the abbot has already left work, or you can come back tomorrow." ”
"Abbot...... There is still an obvious commute time?" Mai Dong was amazed, is it so hasty to take refuge in my Buddha, and still clock in and out of work?
Xiao Shami smiled: "The donor said that we are a new type of Buddhism, following modern management and humanized development, so we naturally have to commute on time." ”
"Young man, you have a very promising future, these words are very slippery. Mai Dong praised him.
"This is the slogan of our temple, naturally we have to memorize some, this is what our uncle said, we have to follow the trend of the times, we still have a Weibo account, many people are admired. Xiao Shami took out his mobile phone and showed it to Mai Dong.
Mai Dong glanced at the background picture of Weibo, a sequoia tree at the foot of the back mountain, and she smiled casually: "That's really at the forefront of the times, is this Weibo taken care of by your uncle on weekdays?"
"Yes, Uncle Shi used to be a sports coach at a college, and then escaped into the empty door......" Xiao Shami looked adoring.
"You know him well?" Mai Dong asked.
"Uncle Jian has always lived in the temple, often invites me to drink, and also helps me stay on night, so we naturally have to get acquainted. Little Shami said with a smile.
"Is it convenient to meet him?" Mai Dong asked.
"At this time, he should take a walk in the back mountain, he has to go for a walk every day, you go to the back mountain to find him. Then he asked them, "Can you find the way back to the mountain?"
"Yes. Mai Dong smiled.
"The mountain road is slippery, and the two donors are careful. The little novice reminded.
"Thank you, master. Mai Dong thanked him and went out with Du Heng.
"Do you think it's possible that this temple is a murderer?"
"You'll know when you see it. Du Heng always felt that things were not so simple.
