Chapter 357: The Real Dead
Under Lin Jinghao's instructions, the police station directly transferred the police call to the Municipal Criminal Police Brigade, and as soon as Zhang Tao came back from working outside, Xiao Zhang walked into his office.
"Team Zhang, the Qingshan Town Police Station transferred a case and said that someone called the police and said that a cultivator was missing in the Bulao Peak, the back mountain of their town, and it was suspected that he had been killed."
"Didn't they send anyone themselves?" Zhang Tao replied casually. Recently, he has been a little busy, and he doesn't want to meddle in this kind of small case in the mountains at all.
"Didn't their Director Lin be ordered to recuse himself? They suspected that the deceased had something to do with the burial of the body in the manor, so..."Xiao Zhang reported truthfully.
"Isn't it relevant if you haven't figured anything out? They want to take the opportunity to make trouble! Is there any evidence of anything related to that case? I think they just want to take the opportunity to be lazy and show me a good look. Although Zhang Tao was scolding, he was actually quite proud in his heart, he just wanted to see Lin Jinghao's decadent appearance.
"Yes, Team Zhang, their small police station doesn't even have a formal forensic doctor, and they can't handle this kind of case in the first place. Every time, it's not that Director Lin who has to rush to do it, so it's no longer a problem. "How could Xiao Zhang not understand Team Zhang's intentions, he was dragging it.
"Okay, let's let them know the efficiency of our criminal police team, go, call the brothers, and go into the mountain immediately."
Zhang Tao stood up, this time he wanted Lin Jinghao to take a good look, without them messing around in the middle, their criminal police team would be more efficient in handling the case.
Zhang Tao's team drove a total of three police cars and entered the Ageless Peak in a majestic manner. In the deep mountain cultivation area, which was originally as calm as water, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The hermits closed their doors early, leaving Pei Feng and Dashu standing outside Chen Wei's cave waiting according to Lin Jinghao's intentions.
"Team Zhang, thank you for your hard work." Seeing Zhang Tao and his entourage climbing up, panting and stretching out his hand to wipe his sweat, Pei Feng immediately greeted him.
"Who, the police?" Zhang Tao breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little angry when he spoke.
"It's me." Shan Hong, who was standing next to him, raised his right hand.
"You..." Zhang Tao looked at Shan Hong's dress as a mountain man, and he was slightly surprised. Because he thought that in such an inaccessible place, only people who had cultivated together would live here.
Why is it that it is a mountain man who finds the problem? ’
"Yes, I originally wanted to come up the mountain to find the hermit master, who knew that when I walked here, I found that the door was hidden, and there was no one inside, as soon as I pushed the door open, I found that the situation was wrong, the bowls for eating were broken on the ground, and there seemed to be some blood stains on the table, so I called the police."
Zhang Tao didn't continue to ask, he had been in the city, he didn't know much about the things in the mountains, it was hard for him to imagine, why would anyone prefer to live in the mountains? There are even people who will make a special trip to find them.
The forensic doctor who brought it had already begun to collect certificates in the cave, and Zhang Tao also put on white gloves and walked in. The cave was so small that he could see the whole situation at a glance, and his gaze turned. It seems that there is no special evidence to be collected here, the only thing is to wait for the forensic doctor to determine whether the blood stains on the table are human blood?
"Team Zhang, it's indeed human blood!" After the forensic doctor sprayed the luminol reagent, the traces on the table had already shown a spray-like blue light.
Before Zhang Tao could react, another criminal policeman walked in from outside and reported: "Team Zhang, I have asked the cultivators over there, they don't usually interact with Chen Wei, and they haven't seen him for a long time, if we hadn't come here today, they wouldn't have known that something might have happened to him." ”
There were no signs of a fight in the room, only a broken bowl and a chair that had fallen to the floor.
Zhang Tao could already feel that Chen Wei was attacked from behind in an unguarded situation, and he was knocked down with one move, and he didn't even have a chance to struggle and resist.
"Did you find any hand and foot prints?" Zhang Tao's brows furrowed, if Chen Wei really encountered an attack? Then the murderer's skills can be described as mature and sophisticated.
Is there any habitual offender who has fled into this mountain? ’
"Team Zhang, judging from the traces of blood, it should have been about a week, and in the cave, it is obvious that the traces have been cleaned up. So I think that the owner of this cave is probably more than lucky. The medical examiner shook his head and spread his hands, his meaning was obvious, that there was no other evidence to be found.
"This Chen Wei hasn't shown up for so long, don't they think it's strange?" Zhang Tao looked around at the furnishings in the cave and muttered to himself.
"Not every hermit here can hold on, and it is normal for some people to suddenly disappear." A voice explained.
"What's your name?" Zhang Tao's eyes stayed on Shan Hong, who had just spoken.
"My name is Xianyu Shanhong, and I live in this mountain. Officer, you don't suspect me, do you? Shan Hong's eyes widened, he saw the 'temptation' in Zhang Tao's eyes, and he was blaming him for talking too much.
"Team Zhang, he is indeed our mountain people here, and other cultivators have also confirmed that he came to this cave after going to them first."
It was Pei Feng who spoke for Shanhong, but his defense caused Zhang Tao's dissatisfaction even more: "He can't 'shout to catch a thief'?" Zhang Tao knew that Pei Feng was Lin Jinghao's best friend, it was okay if he didn't speak, but as soon as he spoke, of course he would oppose it.
Pei Feng was stunned for a moment: "Team Zhang, in this wilderness, who do you think would be stupid enough to commit a crime and take the initiative to call the police?" To put it mildly, even if a person is buried in the ground, if he doesn't say it, who can know? I think it's even more suspicious..."
Although Zhang Tao didn't like 'Lin Jinghao's people', Pei Feng's words really made him have no way to refute them, and he could only pretend to be generous and asked, "Say!" ”
"According to those fellow Daoists, this Chen Wei often accepts gifts from those who provide them, and those who provide ... It was a very old layman and a young beautiful nurse. ”
"Layman? Nurse? Does it matter? Zhang Tao didn't react yet.
"Team Zhang, they are all surnamed Zhang." Pei Feng saw that he had not succeeded in guiding Zhang Tao over, so he could only speak more clearly.
"You mean Jushi Zhang and Nurse Zhang?" This time, Zhang Tao finally remembered this pair of 'outlaw mandarin ducks'.
"Didn't one of them be shot dead and one committed suicide in the detention center?" Zhang Tao's brain was spinning, in his memory, how could these two people not have anything to do with this case?
"You don't mean to say..."Zhang Tao finally knew what Pei Feng was referring to?
"Tell the brothers to finish their work and close the team." Zhang Tao is now reluctant to talk about the case, and he does not want to find the real deceased. Because in that case, his opponent Lin Jinghao will be resurrected with full blood.
Zhang Tao hurriedly led the team away, leaving Pei Feng and Shan Hong: "Officer Pei, do you think this Officer Zhang will solve this case seriously as Director Lin said?" ”
Pei Feng shook his head noncommittally: "Lin Suo, he's gambling." ”
"He's betting?" Shan Hong didn't understand well.
"He's betting on whether a person's humanity will overcome his own desire for power."
Pei Feng sealed the cave, and then went down the mountain with Shanhong.
For him, he actually didn't approve of Lin Jinghao doing this, in his intention, he directly solved the case, and then stood in front of the leaders of the bureau as a victor and completely defeated Zhang Tao once and again.
On the way down the mountain, Zhang Tao didn't speak all the way, and his heart was very conflicted.
Why did the deceased, whom he had never been able to find, suddenly appear? If this missing hermit is really the deceased of the manor case, then what should he do? ’
Isn't this to slap yourself in the face and admit that you have acted against Lin Jinghao? ’
After a night, through comparison, the blood samples of the deceased were consistent with the deceased in the Manor case, and it was basically determined that it was the same person. That is to say, the manor was not the scene of the first crime, and the person was brought down the mountain after the cave had already been killed.
"Team Zhang, it seems that the police station chief is really innocent, and someone deliberately wants to frame him." Xiao Zhang took the appraisal results and walked in and said.
"Then who do you say is the person who wants to frame him?" Now, Zhang Tao can only face reality.
"Does that need to be said? It must be the one who is flamboyant, his father did not leave the manor to him, how can he be comfortable in his heart? ”
"Did you find Zhang Yang's whereabouts?" Zhang Tao now suddenly had an urge to know the truth.
"No, he's like the world has evaporated, his passport has always shown that he is in the country, but he doesn't know where to hide?"
"Then do you think he's the murderer?" Zhang Tao felt more and more that this case was too strange, how could he find a substitute ghost who was so similar to himself?
"Probably not, right? Forensic Doctor Zhou said that this was definitely done by a professional killer, and it was impossible for Zhang Yang to do it as a scholar. Xiao Zhang replied seriously.
"Alright, you go and send a notice, and say that the deceased in the manor case has been found. It's time for me to cancel the police chief's recusal, as reflected above. Zhang Tao said helplessly.
Now he suddenly felt a little depressed, and he suddenly understood that the dead who suddenly appeared this time should actually be found by Lin Jinghao. It's just that he didn't come forward himself, but sent his own men.
Is he giving himself a step? Do you want to accept his love? The most important thing is, why has they already made him evad? He could still find the real dead? Perhaps, he is really better than himself...'
