Qin Xiao listened to Liu Dongsheng's introduction of the details of the case, and said to him: "Platoon commander, don't hide it, I know that there is a place where you have to investigate." ”

Liu Dongsheng suddenly came to his senses and said, "What place? ”

Qin Xiao replied: "It's the Mazhuang Reservoir." This reservoir is actually very small, but it is very important, it is a reservoir in the mountains upstream of the Daixi River, so, not very well known, now it is expected that just after the water level, I estimate that the reservoir will choose to release water from time to time, but this release is estimated to be very small, I know that I often go to their dam in front of this season. The reservoir is far away from our Hedong Village, and it takes an hour to walk the mountain road, but the reservoir generally does not release a large amount of water, because it is afraid that the downstream villagers will not know what is the drowning accident, but in the place near the reservoir, even a small amount of water can wash people away. Back then, I often took fishing nets with Xu Shaoqing, and went fishing in this season when the water was released frequently, as long as the reservoir was released, there would always be fish coming out, and we would hold the fishing nets and wait for the release of the water. ”

Luo Chuan said anxiously: "Okay, don't talk about those fart children you were back then, hurry up and talk about the specific situation." ”

Qin Xiao retorted: "How can this be a matter of a fart child, these are all helpful to the case!" ”

Liu Dongsheng motioned for Qin Xiao to continue, so Qin Xiao continued: "This reservoir is really in the mountains, so usually only a few employees are in charge of the sluice gates of the reservoir, but now, it is the season of frequent and small amounts of water release, otherwise the reservoir will not be able to support such a large amount of water, so I suspect that the two corpses were washed down from that place." ”

Liu Dongsheng said: "That's right, the situation you said is very important to us, you can tell us the specific location of this reservoir." ”

Qin Xiao marked the location of the reservoir on the map, and then said: "It is near Mazhuang, about a dozen miles away from my Hedong Village!" ”

Liu Dongsheng couldn't help laughing and said: "I can't help but the whole team didn't think about this, it turned out to be so far away." I don't know if I haven't had any clues these days, okay. Now there is a target, tomorrow I will take someone to the Mazhuang Reservoir to understand the situation. ”

Luo Chuan continued: "Liu Dongsheng, speaking of this reservoir, I have one more thing to say. I don't know if it has anything to do with it. ”

Liu Dongsheng immediately said: "You say, maybe it's useful, how do you know if you don't tell me?" ”

Luo Chuan then said: "Qin Xiao, you may not have paid attention to Zhang Zhengguo's news recently, do you know what he is doing now?" ”

Qin Xiao said for a long time. I was a little thirsty, so I took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Don't think I haven't paid attention, I've been staring at him, it is said that he has been busy for a while recently, and he has really plugged his hole!" ”

Luo Chuan smiled: "It's not. He really did it, sold his belongings, and then shrunk and streamlined the staff, and miraculously survived. ”

Qin Xiao smiled: "No, I've seen all the advertisements sold by his shareholders at the auction." He's really saved a lot of good things over the years! ”

Luo Chuan also continued: "It's not, but it's really a loss of these antiques, as soon as he auctioned it, he immediately came back to life, but that's not all, do you know how he else is tidy?" ”

Qin Xiao replied: "Of course I know that the guy he started back then also took out and used it, that is, the recovery of medicinal materials, in the mountainous area near our Hedong Village, because the soil quality is extremely good." The quality of the medicinal materials produced is also first-class goods, and he collected them at a low price from the farmers who went up the mountain every day to collect medicinal materials, and sold them directly to upstream pharmaceutical enterprises, and the economic benefits were very good. I heard that he started this old business again to support his Zhang's Pharmaceutical Group. ”

Luo Chuan said with a smile: "That's right, in fact, he has never stopped this business, and even when he bought and sold well, he was not willing to use these high-grade medicinal materials himself, but sold them for profit." I may not have seen much back then, but now I saved his life! ”

Qin Xiao said with a smile: "Yes, that's right, if the auction of antiques is his emergency blood transfusion, then this hand can be said to restart the hematopoietic function." ”

Liu Dongsheng hurriedly said: "How can you talk about your own business, do you still think that I invited the two of you to really come home for tea?" ”

Qin Xiao and Luo Chuan couldn't help laughing, Luo Chuan said: "Okay, let's not talk about it, let's get down to business, Qin Xiao, there is a situation that you may not know, that is, where is Zhang Zhengguo's medicinal herb acquisition center, do you know?" ”

Qin Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't know, where are you talking about?" ”

Luo Chuan said proudly: "I sent someone to inquire, his medicinal material acquisition center is not far downstream of the Mazhuang Reservoir, it can be said that it is next to the reservoir, this guy is really smart enough, he has to set up the acquisition center directly in the mountains here, it can be said that the herbal medicine villagers must go down the mountain, those farmers from the mountains to pick back the medicinal materials do not have to carry home at all, as big as dozens of catties, as small as a few taels, he directly collected." You say that this method, who has done it to other acquisition units? Of course, those villagers often deliberately keep a lot of soil in the medicinal herb dealer, already to replenish the quantity, but also to keep it fresh, after selling it to him, Zhang Zhengguo directly from the reservoir to draw water, sometimes even without drawing water, just wait for the reservoir to release water, and then put the purchased medicinal materials into the cleaning pond he built to clean. His own engineer built a huge cleaning tank for the plan he designed, which has mechanical mixing equipment, which can be said to be fully automatic operation, and after cleaning, the water is put into the river, and the medicinal herbs are herbs in the mountains, and there is no pollution to the river water, and the environmental protection department will not take care of it. After that, their employees will carry out air-drying, processing and other secondary processing to become a variety of easy-to-preserve medicinal materials, and then he only needs to sort and ship them on the car. ”

Qin Xiao also sighed: "Yes, this is Zhang Zhengguo's powerful classic, my grandfather also admires him very much, now it seems that this trick can still save his life, let him come back to life this time, I can't help but admire his vision and business management ability and ability to grasp business opportunities......"

After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he was silent for a long time.

Luo Chuan turned his head and said to Liu Dongsheng: "Did you understand this time?" ”

Liu Dongsheng said: "It seems to understand, what you mean is that this is likely to be the first scene of the crime, and these two people are also likely to be related to the medicinal herb acquisition center built by Zhang Zhengguo near the reservoir, right?" ”

Qin Xiao nodded, and said with a smile: "Yes, how you check tomorrow is your business, if it is really related to Zhang Zhengguo, you need us to provide Zhang Zhengguo's information, Luo Chuan and I will listen to Officer Liu's summons at any time." ”

Liu Dongsheng listened to Qin Xiao's words. also had a clue in his heart, and couldn't help but say happily: "Okay, you two can go!" ”

Qin Xiao and Luo Chuan glanced at each other, and Luo Chuan said, "Hey." I said Liu Dongsheng, you really treat yourself as a green onion, the two of us drank so much with you tonight, and provided you with so much information, it's so late. You don't stay with us, and then take out the good wine, and continue to drink peanuts on the hour, why do you want to drive us away! ”

Liu Dongsheng said with a smile: "It's not okay tonight, I'm a little tired, Ma Xiaoxi will be angry when he comes back and sees us still drinking!" ”

Qin Xiao laughed and said, "Who believes what you say?" We've helped you a lot, Ma Xiaoxi doesn't care, you have to be honest! ”

Liu Dongsheng didn't answer, and Qin Xiao said, "Then you sue me." How long is Ma Xiaoxi pregnant? ”

Liu Dongsheng replied casually: "It's been more than three months!" ”

Qin Xiao immediately understood, so he laughed and said, "Oh, so that's the case! I understand! Okay, I wish you and Ma Xiaoxi a smooth progress in their case! ”

Liu Dongsheng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said: "Your grandmother's, Qin Xiao, you are so annoying to study medicine!" ”

Luo Chuan listened to the conversation between the two of them but was a little puzzled, so he asked, "What did you say?" Why can't I understand? ”

Qin Xiao smiled and said, "Little friend, you are still young. You'll understand when you grow up! ”

When Luo Chuan saw Qin Xiao talking about him so mockingly, he couldn't help but use his evil nature, saying that he wouldn't leave, and he had to ask Liu Dongsheng to explain clearly. Qin Xiao made a helpless expression, Liu Dongsheng twisted and said: "Company commander, since I don't get married, I have been busy with the case and I am very nervous, and now Ma Xiaoxi is more than three months pregnant." I went for a check-up a few days ago, and I asked the doctor if we could do it. The doctor said that the first trimester and the last trimester were not good, but now he has been pregnant for more than three months, so ......"

Luo Chuan couldn't help laughing and said, "So you want to relieve the tension of handling the case tonight, right?" Okay, then Qin Xiao and I won't bother you, let's go. ”

As soon as the two of them went out, Ma Xiaoxi happened to come back, Luo Chuan glanced at Ma Xiaoxi, paused, and then turned back to Qin Xiao and said:

"You Qin Xiao, who is studying medicine, is really annoying!"

The next day, Liu Dong was promoted to the unit, and immediately went to this Xiao Wu and Fang Zhenyu drove to the Mazhuang Reservoir, but when the car reached Mazhuang, they could only stop, so they asked the police colleagues from the police station where they beat you in advance to help guide the way.

Starting from Mazhuang, under the leadership of the police, I did about half an hour of mountain road, and finally came to Mazhuang Reservoir.

Liu Dongsheng at a glance, it is really amazing, this reservoir is actually built in the middle of the mountains, and then it flows out at the mouth of a valley, because there is a natural depression between the surrounding mountains, and the springs and streams everywhere are gathered here, and it also forms a natural reservoir for storing water, and later builds a dam at the outlet of the flow, raises the water level, and forms the current Mazhuang Reservoir.

What's more unique is that the water level of this reservoir is not high, but similar to the village, so it will not affect the safety of Daomazhuang, and even more, between the Mazhuang and the library, there is a riverbed and a rocky beach meandering through, no matter how big the water is, it will slip away in an instant, and it will not form a flood.

Even though the scenery is charming and refreshing, a few people did not dare to delay, and walked straight to the management office of the reservoir, that is, a wooden house on the edge of the reservoir, if you don't know that this is in China, it is easy to think that this is not "Uncle Tom's cabin" (I think I didn't explain it before to scare away the readers, today I want to note: "Uncle Tom's Cabin" The final result is that the American black slaves smashed the sluice gates and finally won the turnover, which is somewhat similar to the hut by the reservoir).

There were three staff members on duty in the house, and the comrades from the local police station knew them, and after talking to a few staff members about the corresponding situation, they also obtained the cooperation of several of them, so Liu Dongsheng asked them if they could take out the latest work log to take a look, and he needed to check the records of the recent water release.

After a while, a middle-aged female reservoir work manager removed a file box from the file processing, and then pressed out the work records of the last week and handed them to Liu Dongsheng and others.

Xiao Wu hurriedly turned out the file, there are three books, which are the cleaning record of the library gate, the notification record of the water release time, and the record of the amount of water released and the time of water release. Liu Dongsheng then asked the other three to go together to find out whether there was a record of the water release on the night of November 5.

Sure enough, in the three record books, several people found that there was a time at ten o'clock in the evening of that year, and the amount of water released was about 2,000 tons. Liu Dongsheng immediately asked the management of the reservoir:

"May I ask the comrades, did you send a notice to remind the nearby villagers when the water was released this time?"

One of the people in charge of the reservoir, a middle-aged man, said: "We generally don't notify the release of water, because the amount of water released is relatively small, and when the water goes down, the opportunity has no effect on the water level of the riverbed, and when the water is released, we will remember the alarm around us, unless the people around us don't know, there will be enough time to leave." And if it is a large amount of water, the amount of water released is more than 10,000 tons, we will definitely notify in advance, and then each village will broadcast, and an alarm will be issued when the water is released. ”

After the person in charge finished speaking, Xiao Wu quickly recorded these words.

Liu Dongsheng knows that this is very critical, if there is no reminder, then the death of the two people is likely to be an accident, the current identity of the two people, but also for the receipt of any missing report, if not notified, the two deceased are likely to have a dispute by the river because of emotional entanglement, or the two people have no conflict, but they are just stealing joy under the dam, accidentally washed away by the water, and questioning the damage to the limbs, it is also very likely that it is caused by the collision of rocks in the riverbed below and squeezing the body, Maybe even underneath the dam. Presumably, this is most likely the case.

But Liu Dongsheng asked again: "Then can you tell me if you saw anything unusual under the dam when the water was released last night or before?" ”

The person in charge replied: "No, our searchlight didn't find anything unusual, so we released the water." (To be continued.) )
