Chapter 285: Bear Infested

As soon as Lin Xinyi said this, he shocked all the police officers at the police station.

Director Tsunoda also had a stunned expression, and his face was stunned:

"You mean, thisβ€”this is his killing?"

They looked at each other in disbelief, and then reacted:

"How do you see that?!"

"Wait... Who are you? ”

At this time, Director Tsunoda realized that the reporter in front of him, who was calm and clear-spoken, did not seem to be a simple tourist.

Moreover, the black-looking young man next to Lin Xinyi looked inexplicably familiar.

"I'm the management officer of the Identification Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, Lin Xinyi."

Lin Xinyi briefly introduced himself.

He knew that his name should be loud enough in the police system, and as long as he reported his name, he would be able to save a lot of effort in the communication, assistance and cooperation of the case.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard his name, Director Tsunoda looked surprised.

And immediately following Lin Xinyi, Hattori Heiji also reported his name:

"High school detective, Heiji Hattori."

In the Osaka region, the name Heiji Hattori is much louder than that of Lin Shinichi.

His original intention was to use his reputation to win the trust of these local police officers.

But unfortunately, as soon as he heard the name "Hattori Heiji", Director Tsunoda quickly realized the power behind the name:

"You just..."

"The son of the head of the service and Hattori headquarters?!"

The police officers at the scene were all shocked.

The management of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department can't control them, but the son of the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters is a Brahmin to them.

All of a sudden, everyone, including Mr. Tsunoda, who had been complaining a lot, became serious about their work.

"Officer Hayashi, Mr. Hattori."

Director Tsunoda asked with a serious expression:

"Tell me about what you found?"

"What the hell is going on with that so-called 'murderer'?"

"Hmm." Lin Xin nodded, and briefly described all his previous discoveries.

Of course, he only mentioned the footprints, and did not say that he had an autopsy.

Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to explain how he went down to the bottom of the cliff for an autopsy.

Anyway, the autopsy

"I see..."

"It's possible to infer so much information just by footprints."

Director Tsunoda muttered to himself in shock.

"It's just a small skill of carving insects."

Lin Xinyi didn't bother to explain his Jackie Chan possession, but directly ordered:

"Director Tsunoda, the most important thing now is to find a way to survey the scene."

"Please find a way to send as many police forces as possible to help us survey this wood."

The forest is too big for a few people to find.

Just now, Maoliran and Hattori have been surveying for a long time, but they have only surveyed a small area at the edge of the dense forest and the dirt slope outside the forest.

"Send someone to carry up the body from the bottom of the cliff first, and I still have to do an examination."

Although corpses had been experienced before, it was only a cursory examination in private.

According to the procedure, Lin Xinyi also had to formally do an autopsy accompanied by the Osaka police, take photos to record the autopsy process throughout the process, and standardize the filling of the autopsy report.

Otherwise, it will be a violation of the investigation procedure, and when it comes to court, it will be questioned by the lawyer by seizing the loophole.

"At the same time, you have to find someone to call up the surveillance – even if it's only the monitoring of the entrances and exits, you need to see it."

"If you can see who entered the scenic spot with the deceased on the surveillance, it will be very helpful for the detection of the case."

Saying that, Lin Xinyi methodically followed the procedures and arranged tasks such as contacting his superiors to report the situation, assisting in the investigation of the deceased's information, and visiting the staff of the scenic spot.

Director Tsunoda sounded a little big-headed, but he still responded hard:

"Okay, I'll transfer all the boys from the police station."

"However, these manpower is not enough, and we must ask the higher police station to send someone to support."

"Well, I'm sorry for you."

Lin Xin nodded in thanks, but did not forget to give two extra instructions:

"By the way, Director Tsunoda, can you help bring the old ones here, no..."

"Can you bring out the files of all the murders that have occurred in the scenic spot in recent years and show them to me?"

"This..."Director Tsunoda was slightly stunned.

He seems to be a little unable to make such a "redundant" toss as Lin Xinyi:

"It depends on what the previous case did, and are those accidents related to today's case?"

"It's nothing, I just feel that something is wrong..."Lin Xinyi frowned slightly: "Director Tsunoda, you said before that 1 or 2 people die here every year. ”

"Although this dirt slope is indeed a natural trap, people die in the same place every year... I always feel a little unreasonable. ”

This dirt slope is indeed very easy for people to fall down.

But after all, it is far away in the depths of the dense forest, and its location is extremely remote.

There will be tourists who come here unexpectedly, which is a small probability event in itself.

Lin Xinyi's experience and intuition told him that if a small probability event occurred continuously, it was most likely that something was wrong.

"Are those really accidents..."

A terrible conjecture slowly emerged in his mind.

His gaze became more and more solemn:

"Who is the murderer who chased the killer in the dense forest yesterday?"

...................................

After a long time.

It takes time to transfer the homicide files of previous years, and the materials will not be delivered for a while.

In order to answer the question of "who is the murderer", with Lin Xinyi as the command, Mao Lilan and Hattori Heiji participated in the leadership, and the police officers of the local police station launched a large-scale search and investigation in the woods.

Fieldwork is always hard.

There is no more labor-saving way, but to rely on manpower to weave a net and survey the past inch by inch.

And even such efforts can easily end up with nothing.

Lin Xinyi could only pray that their luck would be better this time.

And their luck seems to be really good...

Not long after the investigation began, Director Tsunoda ran over in a hurry:

"Officer Hayashi, Mr. Hattori."

"I might know who the killer is!"

"Huh?" Lin Xinyi and Hattori Heiji's expressions were a little surprised: "So fast? ”

"yes!" Director Tsunoda said excitedly, "I found a broken tree in the woods. ”

"That tree was obviously hit with some kind of violence, which is why it broke like that."

"And a monster that can split a tree like that..."

Director Tsunoda's eyes became sharp:

"There is no doubt that it is a bear!"

"Only an adult brown bear can have such terrifying power!"

"Only this kind of crazy beast without reason would destroy a small tree for no reason."

"Uh...."Everyone's expressions became a little strange.

Especially Miss Toyama and Ye...

She blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.

It's like a primary school student who has done something wrong and is held accountable by the teacher, and he doesn't dare to speak up.

But Director Tsunoda didn't notice everyone's abnormality at all.

Or rather, he couldn't imagine that there was any other creature on the mountain besides the bear that could cause such damage to the tree:

"The murderer must be a bear!"

"The deceased must have been attacked by a brown bear in the woods, so he fled to the cliff in a panic."

"This is indeed an accident with a 'murderer', but the murderer is not a human being."

Director Tsunoda confidently gave his reasoning.

Even, he gave another reason:

"There are already brown bears in this mountain range."

"Basically, there are records of tourists witnessing brown bears every year, and there have even been unfortunate accidents of brown bears eating people before."

"So it's not impossible for the deceased to be attacked by a wild bear before he died."

"This..."Lin Xin groaned slightly:

Although most of the small tree found by Director Tsunoda was split with Miss Ye, his guess is not impossible.

Since brown bears have always been active in this mountainous area, the explanation that the deceased encountered a brown bear in the wild and fled in a panic seems to sound very reasonable.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

"And Miss Ye, you go for a while..."

"Identify the trees you chopped, and don't let people confuse the traces you left behind with the bears."

"Uh..." Yuanshan and Ye had a fever on their faces.

Facing the strange gazes of the police officers present, she replied embarrassedly, "Hmm..."

And Lin Xinyi continued to instruct everyone:

"Let's have a little more eyes, and pay attention to whether there are still claw marks, footprints, hair, feces, etc. in the forest, which may be traces left by wild brown bears."

"If there is any, report it in time, and I will personally go over to investigate."

"Yes!" The officers nodded in unison.

The survey continued, and everyone dispersed again and searched the woods.

And this time, after a while...

Director Tsunoda appeared in front of Lin Xinyi again excitedly:

"Forest Officer, I have a police officer under my command who has just found traces of a bear in the forest!"

"So fast?" Lin Xinyi was slightly stunned.

He specifically asked, "Is it a real bear?" It's not Miss Heye, right? ”

"This time it must be a real bear."

"I specially asked the young man who found the trace to take me to the scene to take a look:"

"There's a long paw print on the trunk, and it can't have been done by a human."

Director Tsunoda said with an oath.

"Well... Take me to see it. Lin Xinyi made a decision.

Director Tsunoda turned around and led everyone around the forest, and after a while they came to a large tree.

Most of the tree's bark had fallen off, and its trunk was marked with a few deep claw marks, as if it had been ravaged by some giant beast.

Lin Xinyi squatted down and searched carefully under the tree, but soon found a few long brown hard hairs.

"It's really a bear..."

"This place is really infested with bears."

His gaze became a little strange:

"And, judging by the fallen leaves under this tree..."

Lin Xinyi squatted down and picked up a slightly dry green leaf:

"It's not the season yet, and there are a lot of green leaves under this tree, much more than any other tree."

"These fallen leaves should not fall off naturally, but were shaken down by external forces."

"What's more, these shedding leaves are still green, just slightly dryβ€”"

"This means that they have just fallen off in the last two days, so they haven't dehydrated too much."

There were several bear paw prints on the tree, brown animal hair under the tree, and large fallen leaves that had recently fallen off.

All this evidence is superficial, in the past two days, in this forest, there are indeed brown bears.

The location and time of the crime are almost right.

"Could it be..."

There seems to be a new development in the case:

"Is the murderer really a bear?!"
