December has passed more than halfway, and the new year is coming, on this day, in Xiaofeng Village, N City, N Province, Chen Xingzhou, who is over 60 years old, is holding a festive wedding.

Xiaofeng Village is not big, but it is not small, the whole village adds up to more than 300 households, thousands of people, a wedding in the countryside is a very important thing in the village, generally whoever marries a daughter-in-law, or marries a daughter, the whole village will come to help, and today Chen Xingzhou's family held this wedding, it was he to his youngest son Chen Yiming held.

Because it's almost the New Year, the young people who work outside on weekdays have returned to Xiaofeng Village one after another, they have returned to their hometown with a year's harvest and sadness, Chen Yiming is twenty-eight years old this year, graduated from university, and now works in a private company, and he married a daughter-in-law is an authentic urban person, which is a good thing for Chen Yiming, who was born in the countryside, and for Chen Xingzhou and his wife, it is also a glorious thing, for Xiaofeng Village, It's more of a matter of eyebrows.

N city is located in the north of Huaxia, the weather is cold, and S city is located in the south, the cold of N city is the kind of dry and cold, do not want to be south, winter is very wet and cold.

Xiaofeng Village is full of lights and joy, every guest who comes to Chen Xingzhou's house is full of smiles, envy, blessings, and naturally red-eyed, of course, everyone is an adult, naturally they will not show the original emotions in their hearts on their faces, several villagers who are neighbors and acquaintances with Chen Xingzhou and his wife also came to Chen Xingzhou's house to help.

In Chen Xingzhou's house and at the door, there were full of villagers who came to say goodbye and eat a banquet, they smoked cigarettes, drank tea, sat in front of the small brazier and roasted the fire, chatted, chattering, a festive scene, on the ground in the courtyard, it was already covered with a red layer of explosion debris, the door had been pasted with a big double happiness word, and the door frame was also pasted with a new and festive couplet, as if all this indicated the formation of a new family.

After Chen Yiming followed the convoy to pick up his wife, he was busy at home, because they got married in the countryside, and Xiaofeng Village is so big, and Chen Yiming, the people who came to the banquet, also knew each other, the countryside is different from the city, the countryside is more casual, there are not so many rules, as long as the etiquette is reached, don't shout the wrong name, it's okay, compared with the city and the countryside, when the wedding is held, there is more showing off and comparison, and less human touch.

Originally, the son's marriage is a great joy, parents should be happy, and the son is still a city girl, although Chen Yiming's wife is from the city, but she doesn't want to be so pampered as a city person, after she entered the door, she changed out of the white wedding dress, put on casual clothes and accompanied Chen Yiming around, Chen Xingzhou and his wife watched the family full of people, lively scenes, especially looking at the youngest son Chen Yiming who was busy among the guests, Although the two old men also had smiles on their faces, but if they looked closely, they could find that the expressions on the faces of Chen Xingzhou and the old couple were a little stiff, of course, this was not that they thought that the youngest son Chen Yiming had anything bad about marrying a city daughter-in-law, and they were not satisfied, on the contrary, the old couple were very satisfied and happy in their hearts, they just thought of the eldest son Chen Zhi, who had been missing for eleven years.

The eldest son, Chen Zhi, is Chen Xingzhou's first child, he has a total of two children, and both are sons, Chen Zhi is eight years older than Chen Yiming, if Chen Zhi is still alive now, then Chen Zhi should be thirty-six years old this year, it is the time of his birth year, and today's day of Chen Yiming's marriage is also the time of Chen Zhi's thirty-sixth birthday, the reason why Chen Yiming arranged the wedding today is to make the two old people happy.

Chen Zhi is a graduate of Huaxia Institute of Geology, studying civil engineering, after graduation, he went to work in a state-owned enterprise in G City, a college student appeared in Xiaofeng Village, not only the glory of Chen Xingzhou's family, but also the glory of the whole village, after all, a college student in the countryside is as important as fame in the ancient examination, and Chen Zhi used to work in a state-owned enterprise, which made everyone in Xiaofeng Village very envious and red-eyed.

When Chen Zhi was admitted to university, Xiaofeng Village celebrated that Xiaofeng Village had a college student, and the village also held a party celebration at that time, when Chen Zhi went to work in a state-owned enterprise in G City, the villagers of Xiaofeng Village were also sincerely happy for this child who went out of the countryside, however, all this ended in a phone call eleven years ago.

Eleven years ago, three years after Chen Zhi graduated from university, and when he worked in G City for three years, in the autumn of that year, Chen Zhi suddenly made a phone call home, and the person who answered the phone was none other than Chen Zhi's father, Chen Xingzhou.

Chen Zhi complained to Chen Xingzhou on the phone, saying that she was very unhappy alone in G City, the consumption in G City was high, and she was not familiar with the place, and she had no partners, and every time the company was on holiday, other colleagues returned home to spend the holiday with her family, and he could only stay alone in the company's dormitory for the holiday.

At that time, Chen Xingzhou said a few words about Chen Zhi on the phone, telling him that he was going out from the countryside, not to compare with people in the city, not to compare with others, but also to add blockage to his heart, in addition, Chen Xingzhou, as a rural person who did not ask questions, could not say any big reason, so he told Chen Zhi on the phone, let him take care of himself in the field, cut down on food and clothing, save some money he earned, and prepare for marrying a daughter-in-law in the future.

Chen Xingzhou felt that his son Chen Zhi was a little depressed on the phone, but the old man didn't think much about it, he thought that his son might be homesick, and comforted his son a few words at the end of the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xingzhou went to do something else, he didn't expect that this would be the last call Chen Zhi made.

A month after Chen Zhi made that phone call, Chen Xingzhou felt a little strange, although Chen Zhi worked in G City, worked in a state-owned enterprise, and was busy on weekdays, but Chen Zhi was a very filial child, he would call home every other week, even if he was busy at work, he would call home for as little as a week, or as much as two weeks, to report safety to his parents who were thousands of miles away, but now a month has passed, and Chen Zhizai has not called home once.

Chen Xingzhou and his wife have never gone to school, belonging to the illiterate kind, except for being able to know a few Arabic numerals, the other words do not know, the landline at home is still Chen Zhi bought after work, just to facilitate contact with the elderly, at that time, the youngest son Chen Yiming was in high school again, living in the school, Chen Xingzhou and his wife were at home, although Chen Xingzhou felt a little strange, but he thought that his son was busy with work, so he forgot.

However, three months have passed, and it is about to be the New Year, Chen Zhi neither went home nor called home, which made Chen Xingzhou and his wife very worried.

That year, during the Chinese New Year, there were only three people in the family, Chen Xingzhou and his youngest son Chen Yiming, Chen Zhi, who had never been absent before, did not come back that year, this absence was eleven years, even such an important thing as the marriage of the youngest son this year, Chen Zhi did not come back to see, Chen Xingzhou and his wife were inevitably sad, especially Chen Xingzhou, he blamed himself a little, he should not have said such heavy words to Chen Zhi back then.

Two years after Chen Zhi lost contact, Chen Xingzhou went to the local public security bureau to report the missing case under the persuasion of his youngest son Chen Yiming, but Huaxia is so big, every year, there are cases of missing people all over the country, although the police have filed a case, but finding the missing person is a complicated thing, and it is undoubtedly difficult to find a needle in a haystack if you want to find a person in a population of more than one billion, and Chen Zhi's G city is a densely populated and highly mobile city, and it is even more difficult to find a foreign population in G city. So the case of Chen Zhi's disappearance has been sealed in the dust.

Over the years, Chen Xingzhou has never given up looking for Chen Zhi, but Chen Xingzhou and his wife have no culture, and the farthest place in their lives is to send their two children to college and go to the city several times.

The originally very festive wedding scene cast a lingering shadow in the eyes of Chen Xingzhou and his wife, so when the photographer took a family photo for them that day, the mood of the old couple was not very high.

For the knot in the hearts of his parents, Chen Yiming, as a son, is naturally very clear, he has a very good relationship with his brother Chen Zhi, since he was a child, he likes to follow Chen Zhi's fart-stock, even the tuition and pocket money he went to high school were all from Chen Zhi, Chen Yiming has started working since graduating from college, and he has not given up asking around about his brother's whereabouts, originally, he wanted to go to G City to work, but under the strong opposition of Chen Xingzhou and his wife, he could only work in N City.

Chen Yiming knew very well why his parents opposed him going to G City, because they were worried that Chen Yiming would be like Chen Zhi and would never come back if he went to G City.

Eleven years ago in the winter, the S City Public Security Bureau received a report, a scavenger, in S City in an abandoned snake farm scavenging, found two black plastic bags, in the plastic bag containing a human hand and a human thigh, the scavenger in the moment of opening the bag, directly frightened faint, and when he woke up again, quickly got up, even crawled to the local police station to report to the police, and then, the police rushed to the scene, the scene was investigated and searched.

At that time, it was Lu Ye who was in charge of this case, and he was not the director of the Public Security Bureau of S City at that time, but just a director of the sub-bureau.

After the police came to the scene, they quickly sealed and locked the scene, and identified the body parts in the plastic bag, and after some identification, they found that the scavenger was right, it was indeed the thigh part of a person's right hand and a left leg, and the police launched a search around the scene, and as a result, they found two identical black plastic bags, which contained some pieces of meat and human bones, but there were few body pieces, and it was impossible to see which part of the human body was without a detailed forensic examination.

The police were careful at the scene, and after repeated repeats, they almost dug three feet into the ground, and found no other body parts or body tissues.

The forensic doctor conducted a detailed examination of the body parts found at the scene, and found that these body parts were all from the same person's body parts, and after assembly, only a relatively intact right hand and a mutilated thigh were found at the scene, and the other body parts were unrecognizable due to the high degree of decay.

Based on the examination of the body, the medical examiner came to the following conclusions.

The deceased, male, aged between 20 and 30 years old, 1.73 meters tall, weighed about 130 pounds, and was not a manual laborer.

At that time, the body was not examined by none other than Sun Wenyao, the forensic director of the current Provincial Public Security Department.

The reason why Sun Wenyao judged that the deceased was not a manual laborer at that time was mainly based on the relatively complete fingers of the right hand of the corpse found at the scene, and generally people engaged in manual labor, because of long-term labor, there will be some marks on their hands, such as calluses, scars, etc., but the deceased's right hand is very clean and smooth, the fingers have no scars, no calluses and the like, and the nails of the fingers are also repaired cleanly and neatly, and they should be engaged in mental work.

Since the body was found, and the body was also divided, according to the situation at the scene, it is clear at a glance that the deceased could not have died accidentally, so if you want to solve this case, you must first find out the identity of the deceased, but the police did not find anything at the scene that could prove the identity of the deceased, neither found the deceased's ID card, nor found anything like a work permit, and even did not find clothes, which made it very difficult to solve the case.

The scene is an abandoned snake farm, which has been abandoned for several years, the snake farm was still relatively famous, but later because of poor management, the capital chain was broken, and the snake farm went bankrupt, so the place was abandoned, the location of the snake farm was relatively remote, close to the jungle, and there was usually no one there, so there were no witnesses at the scene except for the scavenger who found the body parts, and according to the forensic investigation, the deceased had been dead for at least three to four months, If it weren't for the good sealing of the plastic bag and the relatively low temperature at that time, it is estimated that the deceased would have rotted into a pile of white bones.

There are no eyewitnesses, no complete corpse, and no source of the corpse, so there is no way to quickly solve the case, and the scene is only a corpse dumping scene, not the first crime scene, and the difficulty of detection can be imagined.

Therefore, the police first began to investigate the missing persons, because the detection methods and detection techniques were relatively backward at that time, so it was very difficult to investigate the identity information of the deceased from the many missing persons, and time passed little by little, in addition to preserving the only remaining body parts of the deceased, the police also retained the DNA information of the deceased, in addition, the case has not been detected, just like Xu Lang's sister Xu Chan, the body is still stored in the morgue of the Public Security Bureau.

Time has passed, in a blink of an eye, eleven years have passed, Lu Ye, who was in charge of the case at the beginning, has become the director of the Public Security Bureau of S City from the director of a public security bureau, and the forensic doctor Sun Wenyao has also been promoted from a forensic doctor in S City to the forensic director of the Provincial Public Security Department, but this headless homicide case has not been solved so far.

During this period, every year, Lu Ye would ask people to investigate the murder, but every time there was no progress and no information was obtained.

————

Since the 1130 case was solved, Ning Yanran and the others returned to S City from Y City, and as soon as they came back, Ning Yanran was called to the office by Lu Ye.

Ning Yanran thought at first that Lu Ye was going to praise the Second Criminal Investigation Team for being able to crack the Wen Xuelan gang case in such a short period of time this time, but after Ning Yanran walked into Lu Ye's office, she found that Lu Ye did not sit behind the desk as usual, but sat in front of the sofa in the office, and on the coffee table in front of the sofa, there was also a fax, Lu Ye had a straight face, Ning Yanran couldn't see whether Lu Ye was happy or unhappy, which made her heart a little worried.

"Is it because of Xu Lang's matter?" Ning Yanran thought to herself as she walked to the front of the sofa.

"Director, are you looking for me?" Ning Yanran stood in front of the sofa for a long time, Lu Ye didn't speak, and Ning Yanran had to remind her.

"Oh, Yanran, you're here, sit."

Hearing Ning Yanran's voice, Lu Ye came back to his senses, he raised his head and glanced at Ning Yanran, who was tired, and finally said with a smile on his face that had been tense.

After Ning Yanran sat down, she looked at Lu Ye, glanced at the fax on the coffee table, and then asked, "Director, what are you looking for me?" Is it because of Xu Lang's matter? Or has a new case arisen? ”

When Lu Ye heard this, he first shook his head, then nodded, and said, "This time, I'm looking for you, not because of Xu Lang's matter, but because of a case." ”

"Oh? What case? Ning Yanran asked in some surprise.

If it is an ordinary criminal case, basically the first criminal investigation team and the second criminal investigation team can handle it, besides, they are from the Public Security Bureau, and there are public security sub-bureaus and many police stations below, what can make Lu Ye have this expression is definitely not a small case.

Sure enough, Lu Ye opened his mouth and said: "I came to you this time to ask you to lead the members of the second criminal investigation team to investigate a homicide case eleven years ago." ”

"A homicide eleven years ago?" Ning Yanran repeated, which made Ning Yanran more and more confused.

"Yes, the homicide from eleven years ago." Lu Ye nodded and said.
