A day after the case, the forensic identification center is still testing the three burned bodies, while the criminal police are still patrolling around Wuling Town to collect evidence, mainly asking local residents if they have seen a suspicious figure with silver front teeth.

The hard work paid off, and I really heard about such a person who met the physical characteristics in a small restaurant in Wuling Town.

The female owner of the small restaurant reported that three days ago, several outsiders came to eat in their restaurant, and one of them had his front teeth made of silver, and he spoke Mandarin when he ordered, but when they talked to each other, it was a foreign dialect, and the female boss did not know what dialect they spoke. However, it seems that there are a few others who follow them, speaking the Chongqing dialect.

It is difficult to determine whether these people are victims or not, but this is not a breakthrough. So Lao Lu mobilized the police and checked the surveillance of the surrounding shops, public security networks and transportation networks, hoping to find the surveillance footage of the suspicious characters before and after eating at the restaurant.

In the end, sure enough, in the surveillance outside a supermarket, the whereabouts of this group of people were discovered. From the surveillance footage, it can be seen that there are nine people who came out of the small restaurant together. After the female owner of the restaurant identified those people who had come to eat a few days ago, but she couldn't be sure if the nine were together.

In the surveillance footage, after the nine people left the hotel, seven of them crossed the street and got into a van, while the other two got into a motorcycle, and then the van and the motorcycle drove in the same direction. Because the two people on the motorcycle had the gesture of greeting each other when they were separated from the rest of the people, I deduced that the nine people knew each other.

It's a pity that the surveillance screen is very blurry, and it is difficult to see the physical characteristics and license plate number of the person.

Following the monitoring of the traffic network, it was found that the van and motorcycle had entered the rural road of Golden Village, Wuling Town. The Golden Village is not far from the Xiazhong Village, where the crime scene is located.

On the surveillance video of the transportation network, the license plate of the van was clearly seen, but when I checked, there was no relevant information, which was obviously a fake license plate. And on that motorcycle, there was no license plate at all.

It seems that there must have been some misdeeds on the part of these nine people, otherwise they would not have used unlicensed and fake vehicles. And I wonder if there was some conflict between the group of people, and in the end, three of them were killed, and then their bodies were moved to Shimanakamura for cremation.

Of course, this is just a conjecture of mine. However, the investigation can be further deepened, that is, the police went deep into the golden village to inquire about the whereabouts of the van and motorcycle from the villagers.

After two days of investigation, except for some villagers who said that they seemed to have seen it, there was no special discovery, so the investigation of the Golden Village also ended in failure.

At this time, there was a bottleneck in the case, and when everyone was at a loss, I pinned my hopes on the identification of the 'Xianfeng Heavy Treasure' copper coin.

This morning, I took this 'Xianfeng Heavy Treasure' copper coin to an antique shop in Pigeon Gully. The name of this antique shop is 'Bu Pu Zhai', and the owner of this 'Bu Pu Zhai' is surnamed Yang, and he is a big fat man, and I met him when I was investigating the Qinglongshi murder case. Although this person has a sharp tongue and a smooth tone, he is a typical cultural relics dealer and a big profiteer. But his knowledge of antiques is extraordinary. So I'm going to ask him to help me identify the coin.

"Ouch! It's Mr. Ouyang, what kind of wind is blowing you to the store, please sit down. The fat man walked down from the counter with a smile on his face and shook hands with me happily.

I said, "I have something to ask you today." ”

Fat Yang patted his fleshy bald head and said, "Ouch, do you Ouyang Detective have anything difficult to ask me, I'm really flattered, flattered!" ”

I didn't bother to mess with him, so I took out the evidence bag directly from the small satchel and poured the 'Xianfeng Heavy Treasure' small copper coin on the wood-carved tea table in the store.

Don't look at this fat man's eyes, he is squeezed very small by the fat on his face, but his eyes are very good.

His eyes flashed instantly, and his expression was not so hippie smiling, he first squatted down to look at the copper coin, then walked to the counter, took out his gloves, and walked back to the wood-carved tea table, picked up the copper coin and brought it to his eyes, and looked at it over and over. In the process of looking closely, he pinched the copper coin with his hand, and found that the copper coin had some black ashes, so he took a plastic air blow and blew out the residue in the gap of the copper coin.

I saw that he nodded slightly, so he said, "How is it, do you see the fame?" ”

He was looking down at the copper coin, and when he heard me speak, he rolled his eyes upward, then sighed and said, "Hey! It's a good thing, but it's a pity that it's been burned, the color has changed, and the price has dropped. ”

I looked at Tang Zhenguo and motioned him not to speak, I want to see what the hell this fat man wants to play. So he said, "Just say it, how much?" ”

Fat Yang pursed his mouth, shook his head, and said: "Mr. Ouyang, we are also old acquaintances, no one can pit you, this price." He held out an index finger.

"A hundred?" Tang Zhenguo still couldn't help but say a word.

Fat Yang didn't pay attention to Tang Zhenguo, but stretched out his fingers and kept looking at me.

"Ten thousand is a little lower." I said.

"What? Ten thousand? Can such a broken copper coin be sold for 10,000 yuan? Tang Zhenguo asked with wide eyes.

Yang Fatzi smiled: "If the condition is good and it has not been burned, fifteen thousand will not be a problem." In this way, Mr. Ouyang, I will give you 12,000, which cannot be higher. ”

I smiled and said, "Why, you want to fish for the dead too?" ”

Yang Fatzi also smiled: "Those of us who are in the antique business, aren't we just fishing for this." ”

I grabbed the evidence bag and snatched the copper coin from Yang Fatzi's hand, and the copper coin was put into the evidence bag again. I held up the evidence bag in front of Yang Fatzi and said, "Do you know this kind of bag?" ”

Yang Fatzi fixed his eyes, and immediately retracted the face of the profiteer, revealing a simple expression and said: "I still know the words of the physical evidence packaging bag and the police badge, what's the matter, this copper coin is physical evidence?" ”

I said, "Yes, it was found from the burned dead beyond recognition." ”

When Yang Fatzi heard this, he was shocked, quickly took off his gloves, threw them into the trash can on the side, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Ouyang, why don't you make your words clear, let me work blindly for a long time." ”

I said, "Huh! Don't be busy, do you see what it is? ”

Yang Fatzi said: "I can see it, you want me to cooperate with you to solve the case!" ”

I smiled: "It's good to see it, let's say it!" ”

Yang Fat Man was obviously a little lost, I guess he must have thought that he could trick me just now, but how did he know that his wishful thinking had failed.

Yang Fatzi shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, good, the police and the people cooperate, the police and the people cooperate." Let me tell you, this 'Xianfeng Heavy Treasure' copper coin is a Qing Dynasty "Xianfeng Heavy Baby Gongdang Fifty" mother coin, although it is not very rare, but the value is still considerable. The estimate, hehe, is about 30,000 to 50,000. ”

I pursed my lips and smiled, and pointed at Fat Yang with my finger.

Tang Zhenguo sighed on the side: "A small copper coin can be sold for 50,000 yuan, which is incredible." ”

Yang Fatzi looked at Tang Zhenguo and said disdainfully: "Fifty thousand is nothing, and millions are not a few." Eh, Mr. Ouyang, where did you find this copper coin? Was it really taken from the crematory? Fat Yang began to show curiosity.

I didn't intend to hide it from him, so I said casually: "That's right, it was found on the burned corpse in Wuling Town." ”

Yang Fatzi sighed and said: "I have seen this news on WeChat, do you think these few will be tomb robbers?" ”

As soon as I heard the words 'tomb robbers', my eyes rolled and I quickly asked, "Tell me what you think." ”

Yang Fatzi said seriously: "There are a large number of ancient ruins and ancient tombs in this Wuling Town, including the Fuxikou Ruins and Xiazhong Village Ruins, which are the representatives of small and medium-sized ancient towns in the Xiajiang area, as well as the large-scale ancient tombs represented by the Daqiuping Tombs and the Tangziliang Tombs, which have lasted for hundreds of years. Therefore, there should be a lot of tomb robbers in the surrounding area. ”

As soon as I heard the words 'Shimanakamura', I had a lot of drama in my heart, so I asked Yang Fatzi to continue.

Yang Fatzi said: "The ancient coin in your hand, I think it's mostly a talisman on the tomb robber. Many tomb robbers like to wear one of the antiquities they stole for the first time as an amulet, and the most common of them is copper coins. ”

Listening to what Yang Fatzi said, I can understand why those corpses are wearing sneakers and liberation shoes on hot days, that is, to wear these kinds of shoes when entering and exiting the thief hole, which is more non-slip.

I happily patted Yang Fatzi's shoulder with both hands and said, "If the Wuling case is solved, I will help you apply for a Enthusiastic Citizen Award from the government." ”

Yang Fatzi smiled: "Mr. Ouyang, you must be a talker!" ”

Now that we have a direction to detect, Tang Zhenguo and I hurriedly rushed to the criminal investigation team to find Lao Lu and told Lao Lu my detection ideas.

I said, "This cremation case is probably caused by a fight between tomb robbers. The reason for the fighting in the nest is likely to be the uneven distribution of the spoils, since there is a share of accounts, it means that they are likely to have succeeded in robbing the tomb. Then push it down, since the tomb robbery is successful, then there must be a hole left. And the robbery hole, unless you use *, it can't be completed overnight, so around the robbery hole, more or less there will be traces of the suspect. As long as we find a new robbery hole in the tombs in Wuling Town, we may be able to open a breakthrough according to this robbery hole. ”

As soon as he said it, Lao Lu immediately summoned the criminal police and contacted the Wanzhou District Museum, which is in charge of the ancient tombs in Wuling Town, and asked them to send experts to cooperate with the police to find new robbery holes in the cemetery.

This time, more than 200 police officers were dispatched to search for the robbery hole, including criminal police, auxiliary police, and public security joint defense personnel. Before the search began, the museum staff also gave a brief description of the characteristics of the new cave.

Under the scorching sun and scorching heat, after more than four hours of searching, the police officers finally found a brand-new robbery hole in a small soil ditch covered with weeds about 700 meters away from the Daqiuping Tomb Group in Xiazhong Village.

The entrance of this robbery hole is very small, the diameter is only 40 centimeters, and the robbery hole is very deep and straight, and there are obvious shovel traces on the wall of the robbery cave, indicating that this robbery hole is a thin body, and the skilled thief hole master digs by hand with a shovel. Experts from the museum determined that this kind of excavation and theft method is the first case in Wanzhou.
