At 9:45 a.m., everyone arrived at the last stop of the morning, by a cement road that had just been built along the river.

This road belongs to the "Village-to-Village" project, less than five meters wide, and motor vehicles must be careful when intersecting.

However, this is not a traffic artery, and the Haidong County Public Security Bureau has made corresponding preparations to ensure that nothing goes wrong, as early as two hours ago, it put warning signs at both ends of the road "Please detour ahead of construction", and arranged several traffic police guards, so that there is no problem of traffic jams.

They move quickly and think things through.

Not only did they pull several large truckloads of blue-colored steel plates overnight, and they were erected one by one to block the surroundings tightly, and even pulled two mobile houses similar to containers. Coupled with the old crane parked in front of the Volvo and a group of police officers wearing water conservancy engineering company uniforms and yellow hard hats, it is no different from the construction site, and the camouflage is impeccably disguised.

Perhaps in order not to occupy valuable arable land, the surrounding villagers buried the ashes of the deceased or the deceased by the creek. At a glance, there are no less than 50 graves from south to north.

The exquisite people are very particular, they are beautifully built with cement, there are marble tombstones, the tombstones are inlaid with photos, and there are not many weeds around. But more people are very simple, ordinary to a mound, some erect a marble tombstone, some erect a cement tombstone, but more only have a grave.

Walking into the coffin opening scene encircled by color steel plates, Yang Zhongwang couldn't help asking: "There are so many graves here, and so much time has passed, can't you be mistaken?" ”

Feng Aijun, deputy director of the county public security bureau, was busy for most of the night, and while signaling the cadres and police to put the color steel plate up, he pointed to several cadres who were looking this way, and reported in an affirmative tone: "Report to the Yang Bureau, we invited the two town cadres and village cadres who were in charge of the aftermath at that time, and confirmed it repeatedly, and I guarantee that it can't be wrong, and I will be responsible for the mistake!" ”

Deputy Director Qiu of the Municipal Bureau glanced back and warned in a low voice: "Comrade Aijun, you must pay attention to secrecy. ”

"Please rest assured that these are all old party members and cadres, and they have all written guarantees."

"You're responsible for the problem."

"Yes, I'm responsible for the problem!"

The coffin was dug up, and several police officers were cleaning up the dirt on it. Because it was buried by the small river and buried quite deeply, the coffin had already begun to decay, and under the instructions of Han Jun and Section Chief Qi, the two police officers opened the coffin lid without much effort.

In twelve years, a flower girl was turned into a pile of bones, and her clothes had already rotted, pasted on the bones, and only the skull could be seen. The corpse worms have long since died, leaving behind a pile of shells. There is no black gas coming out of horror movies, and there is not even a disgusting and unpleasant smell.

Chief Qi clamped it with tweezers, and found that the clothes were so rotten that he couldn't clamp them, so he took out a tool from the box, scraped the clothes aside one by one, pointed to the pelvic bones and said, "Director, it's a woman, it shouldn't be wrong." ”

"Let's get started, be careful, you can't miss a clue."

Han Jun didn't have any confidence in whether he could find clues and evidence, after all, after so many years, even if there were, dust would return to dust, dust to dust, and turn into nothingness. But the open coffin autopsy was what he requested, and it had to be done like that.

"Yes!"

Section Chief Qi answered, and together with two forensic doctors from the county public security bureau in white coats, gathered in front of the coffin, and began to collect physical evidence as meticulously as archaeologists.

Professional work is done by professional people, he can't help, and it's not easy to experience it in front of so many people, so he simply went back to the car to study the case with Deputy Director Yang, Deputy Director Qiu and Feng Aijun, deputy director of the Haidong County Public Security Bureau.

"This child's name is Shen Xia, she was 19 years old when she was killed, she was in her third year of high school at Linghe High School, her grades were very good, she was very sensible, and her parents had high expectations for her. I usually live on campus and don't go home much. Since there are only a few days left before the college entrance examination, the school does not encourage senior high school students to go home on weekends. But she was too sensible, thinking that the family was busy with farming, and her parents had to raise silkworms, harvest wheat and rapeseed, and they were so busy that they couldn't even take care of eating. After Saturday evening self-study, I insisted on riding my bicycle home, preparing to cook for my parents and do laundry. ”

Han Jun pulled out a hand-drawn map from the case file, pointed to the scene of the crime and continued: "At that time, the traffic was not as developed as it is now, and there was a small road here, and walking from a small road can save a lot of time. I grew up in the countryside, and when I was a child, I also liked to take shortcuts, but I didn't expect her to copy something wrong with such a copy.

On Monday morning, the teacher saw that she did not go to class, and her house did not have a telephone, so she had to wait until the afternoon school was over, and asked a teacher from the same village as her to ask, and her parents found out that she had come back on Saturday night but did not arrive home, so they began to look for her. It was not until 3 p.m. on Tuesday that the body was found in an irrigation canal less than three kilometers from the home. ”

A girl who is both beautiful and sensible, it is sad to think about.

Feng Aijun, deputy director of the county public security bureau, sighed lightly, held up the photo and said: "At that time, I was the captain of the second squadron of the criminal police, and after receiving the order from the bureau, I immediately drove a motorcycle to the scene before dark.

In the surrounding villages, all adult males between the ages of 18 and 50 were included in the survey. Director Han just introduced that at that time, it was a busy farming, and the silkworms who caught the silkworms up the mountain went up the mountain (put the silkworms that were fast spinning silk into a paper square for special cocoonings), cut the wheat for the wheat harvest, the rapeseed for the rapeseed, and the rice seedlings for the seedlings (rice seedlings), every household was very busy, and the people who were investigated did not have the time to commit the crime, they all had alibis, and no one provided any clues. ”

Han Jun turned his laptop, pointed to the map he had just clicked on, and said: "Linghe Township before the withdrawal and annexation was a township in the northwesternmost part of Haidong, and 12 years ago, only Linghe Village, where the township government was located, had access to roads. ”

Haidong County's economy has developed very well in recent years, but it is mainly the county seat and several towns close to the national highway.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and because Linghe Town does not rely on highways or national highways, and even provincial roads do not pass through here, it is called "the Siberia of Haidong", and its economy has not developed. Not to mention twelve years ago, there were not even many companies now.

There is no doubt that the locals committed the crime, Deputy Director Yang touched his face, pointed to the photo of the footprints and asked, "What about this footprint, have you traced it?" ”

Feng Aijun explained helplessly: "We can be sure that the irrigation canal is the scene of the crime, and the soil is relatively soft, so there are footprints. However, it didn't rain for a few days, and the murderer couldn't be tracked down after climbing up the canal. In addition, this footprint is left by rain boots, the countryside is not the city, almost every family has it, and one even has several pairs, and just those two brands, there is no way to lock the murderer through guò shoe prints. ”

"Didn't find a walking posture that matches the characteristics of the outer figure?"

"This is normal in rural areas, many people are outside, and they have found nothing after investigation."

Deputy Director Qiu took the photo and glanced at it, and said solemnly: "If there was DNA testing technology at that time, it would be good if the physical evidence was not lost." Expand the range, collect samples and compare them, even if the murderer escapes, you can find clues in the parents and brothers who are related by blood. ”

The loss of evidence is the most aggrieved thing for the Haidong County Public Security Bureau, Feng Aijun sighed secretly, lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything more.

The time was almost up, Han Jun got up and said, "The three of you sit down for a while, I'll go over and see if there's anything I find." ”

"Director Han, leave us alone, you're busy, we'll study these materials again."

He put on gloves, walked into the coffin autopsy site blocked by colored steel plates, nodded slightly to a few town cadres and village cadres who were squatting on the side, and walked to the coffin as if nothing had happened.

The deceased's hair was unweathered, relatively well preserved, long and short, wet and piled up at the end of the coffin. It is impossible to confirm whether there is a murderer left in it, and to find a relatively short one of them, which is less like the deceased, is a very large amount of work, and it is almost an impossible task.

Section Chief Qi straightened up, rubbed his sore waist, and said with a wry smile: "Director, we will definitely get here until the afternoon, or you and Yang Ju and they will go back first." ”

"There's no hurry."

Han Jun took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, pointed to the town and village cadres and said, "Rest for a while, go over there to smoke a cigarette and take a breath." ”

The team leader is wealthy, and Section Chief Qi is not hypocritical, so he happily took over Soft China and called the two forensic doctors from the county bureau to go to smoke and rest.

The corpse was completely decomposed, and all that remained was a pile of white bones. Having never tried it before, Han Junzhen didn't know if that weird ability would work, so he prayed secretly, and stretched out his right hand with his back to Section Chief Qi and the others.

Thankfully, it worked.

A second, maybe not even a second, just a picture, a feeling of suffocation, but that's enough. He relieved himself, held the coffin and said secretly: "Child, you can rest in peace." I swear, I promise to give you justice, help you find the murderer, and bring him to justice!

"Chief Qi."

"Here!"

He called Qi Zhaoyou aside and whispered a few words in his ear, Qi Zhaoyou was stunned, and was stunned for a while before he wanted to say something and asked, "Director, do this...... Do this...... Isn't that right? ”

Han Junchao smiled at the forensic doctors of the two county bureaus who had just gotten up, and said quietly: "Don't worry, I'll say hello to the Wei Bureau." Besides, what are we here to do, we are here to clear the backlog of cases, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we have to try, we can't look ahead like them, we must help them make up their minds. ”

"Okay, I'll carry out the order."

"Then I'll go back with them first, call me in four hours, and when it's over here, you can go back and investigate the case of the unknown woman's corpse."

"Yes!"

Deputy Director Yang and Deputy Director Qiu were very supportive of going back and waiting for the news, and the trailer set off again, Han Jun did not study the case file again, but sat down at the computer to check the household registration information related to the ** murder case in 12 years one by one.

More than ten years have passed, the appearance will change, but the salient features will not change, hundreds of photos have been seen in half an hour, and the murderer has still not been found, Han Jun said sideways: "Section Chief Xia, inform Wang Siqiang that the scope of the survey will be expanded to all the surrounding towns and villages, and the age range will be reduced to between 30 and 50 years old." ”

Xia Moqing tapped the keyboard a few times, pointed to the monitor and said, "Director, the household registration information can be viewed in the car, so you don't need to notify him." ”

"That's for the best."

"You sit here and watch, I'll use another one."

After seeing the corpse in the funeral home, he determined the direction of the investigation, and just after reading the bones, he was interested in the household registration information, and Yang Zhongwang, deputy director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Provincial Department, asked curiously: "Director Han, do you have any ideas?" ”

Han Jun pretended to ponder for a moment, shook his head and said, "Not for the time being, but I feel that the investigation back then must have ignored something." As long as you think of the point that they have overlooked, then this case should not be difficult to investigate. ”
