The dilapidated army-green jeep finally arrived, parked outside the courtyard.

There was no need to squeak harshly, Guan Rui walked out of the hall.

Meng Jiefang jumped out of the car first, followed by Wang Guoqing, Xiao Lu and others, and Yan Yu didn't care too much.

Meng Jiefang's face was ugly, he lit a cigarette regardless of his image, and asked Guan Rui, "What's the situation?" ”

Guan Rui subconsciously glanced at the hall behind him, and then said to Meng Jiefang: "It is very likely that he killed him." ”

"Highly likely? After coming out of the provincial department, Comrade Guan Rui didn't even have self-confidence. A female voice came out from behind Meng Jiefang, and Guan Rui suddenly frowned.

Yan Yu looked at it, and it turned out that Meng Jiefang also brought a female comrade.

This lesbian is only twenty-six or seventeen years old, with a goose egg face, short hair, delicate facial features, a small red mole on the tip of her nose, and black-framed glasses.

However, she was wearing a white coat and her hands in her pockets, and she didn't seem to be very right with Guan Rui.

Meng Jiefang was also a little puzzled: "You know?" ”

However, he soon realized: "That's right, but I'm confused, you are all the backbone of the provincial department, one is a desperate San Lang on the front line, and the other is the chief forensic doctor in the rear, so you should be an old acquaintance." ”

Meng Jiefang wanted to reconcile the atmosphere, but the female forensic doctor and Guan Rui didn't seem to buy it, Meng Jiefang had no choice but to transfer the contradiction, seeing Yan Yu's presence, although he was a little surprised, he still introduced Yan Yu.

"This is a senior technical talent in the city, Comrade Jiang Huijie, a forensic officer."

Meng Jiefang turned to Jiang Huijie again, wanting to introduce Yan Yu, but she preemptively asked, "Why doesn't he wear a uniform?" ”

Meng Jiefang was also a little embarrassed: "He is not a comrade in the institute, he is a teacher in Laohebao Village, Yan Lao......"

Before Meng Jiefang could finish speaking, Jiang Huijie interrupted him: "Team Meng, let's take a look at the scene first, we still have a lot of evidence to test......

Jiang Huijie was a consultant of the task force sent down from above, because of the lack of manpower, Meng Jiefang could only ask her to come over to see the scene together, and she didn't dare to say anything.

Although she didn't look down on Yan Yu at all, Yan Yu didn't have much disgust, but the vigorous and resolute behavior she showed made people feel extra relieved.

Jiang Huijie also ignored Meng Jiefang, but said to Guan Rui: "It seems that you have already done a preliminary investigation, let's go in and have a look, after all, it is your home field." ”

Although Guan Rui was a little unhappy, he still walked into the hall with Jiang Huijie, leaving Meng Jiefang in place with an embarrassed and bitter smile.

"Although Comrade Jiang Huijie is straightforward and fast-talking, her business ability is very strong, don't mind Mr. Yan."

Meng Jiefang didn't question Yan Yu following Guan Rui out to investigate the case, but changed his normal behavior a little, and Yan Yu also had some doubts in his heart.

"Captain Meng, what's going on over there in the Dragon King Temple?"

Yan Yu's intuition was really keen, and when he heard Yan Yu take the initiative to ask, Meng Jiefang was not ambiguous.

"I was about to tell you about this, the provincial archaeological team has arrived at the site of the Dragon King Temple, but it's just ...... It's just that they don't dare to dig it out without permission, saying that they want to borrow a book from you first, do more preliminary research and preparation, and hope that Mr. Yan can cooperate and support it. ”

"Borrow a book from me?"

"Yes, it's also thanks to Professor Zhang, saying that you have a collection of local chronicles, so the archaeological team wants to ask you to borrow it and take a look."

Yan Yu was also abrupt, no wonder he changed his attitude, and it turned out that he was attentive for nothing.

There is no problem with lending the local chronicles to the archaeological team, but Yan Yu feels strange, what is the reason why the archaeological team does not dare to excavate?

"Captain Meng, this place is a unique book, it can be said that there is no second book in the world, but I am very happy to cooperate with the archaeological team, but ...... It's just that I wonder if the archaeological team is having any difficulties? ”

"This ......" Meng Jiefang was a little hesitant, but in the end he still spoke.

"Does Mr. Yan know the allusion that water is good and indisputable?"

"Water is good?" Yan Yu also wondered why Meng Jiefang suddenly talked about this, but he Yan Yu didn't have any other skills, he did read too much of the book, thought about it, and said.

"This should be from the Tao Te Ching."

"Tao Te Ching?"

"Yes, goodness is like water, water is good for all things without fighting, this is water goodness without fighting."

Meng Jiefang pretended to be abrupt, but his face was still a little embarrassed: "A cultural person is a cultural person, and Teacher Yan actually knows it......"

Yan Yu struck while the iron was hot: "Why did Captain Meng suddenly mention this?" ”

Meng Jiefang glanced around, lowered his voice and said: "The archaeological team surveyed the dragon horn, and it was engraved with eight words, 'Water is good and indisputable, and if you touch it, you will die'!" ”

"Water is good and indisputable, and if you touch it, you will die?"

"Yes, according to the analysis of the experts of the archaeological team, this sentence means that water is good water, do not fight or grab, and benefit all things, but no one should force it, otherwise it will kill people!"

"The archaeological team didn't care at first, because they had seen too much, but all the underground monuments would leave some warnings to deter future generations from excavating."

"But it was at this time that your call came, and the archaeological team saw that there were really dead people, so they temporarily gave up the excavation......"

Yan Yu didn't expect that things would be like this, and immediately said to Meng Jiefang: "These are two different things, the archaeological team are all rigorous scientific workers, how can the excavation plan be postponed because of this?" ”

Meng Jiefang asked meaningfully in a low voice to Yan Yu: "The archaeological team is exposed to these things all day long, where can they all be rigorous scientists?" How many will believe it, right? ”

Yan Yu shook his head: "Science is science, and I believe that the comrades of the archaeological team should all be materialists with a firm position." ”

Meng Jiefang handed over a cigarette: "This time, the archaeological team also brought a consultant from the Religious Affairs Bureau......

"Someone from the Religious Affairs Bureau? What does this have to do with the Religious Affairs Bureau? ”

Yan Yu was a little surprised, Meng Jiefang hurriedly raised his hand and asked him to whisper: "It's not the Religious Affairs Bureau, it's a supernumerary consultant from the Religious Affairs Bureau, and he said that he is a cultivator on which immortal mountain......

"Cultivators? This ......" Yan Yu couldn't laugh or cry, no wonder Meng Jiefang said that not all the people in the archaeological team believed in science.

But he still said to Meng Jiefang: "The experts of the archaeological team are not omniscient and all-powerful people, the place of Laohebao is too remote, and there are few historical records. ”

"These so-called cultivators don't mean that they have any extraordinary abilities, but their knowledge, and they may know more and more about some things among the people than the archaeological team."

Meng Jiefang showed an appreciative look: "Cultural people are cultural people, in the end, they are a circle, and Mr. Yan understands it very well." ”

"When the work here is over, I'll take you back, maybe you can still provide some help to the archaeological team."

Yan Yu had no choice but to accept it with a smile, Meng Jiefang asked about today's matter again, Yan Yu didn't hide too much, talking about the discovery of belladonna and so on, Meng Jiefang became more and more dignified.

"I thought that there were dead people here, and it had nothing to do with the Dragon King Temple, it was just a coincidence, and the archaeological team was too cautious, but I didn't expect it to be really connected!"

It is true that Mr. Sun is the one who bought belladonna and the master of the dance, and it is very likely that he is the one who coaxed the big and small pairs to eat belladonna.

And he danced in the Dragon King Temple, but now he is dead, and it is not convincing to say that he has nothing to do with it.

The two talked for a long time, Jiang Huijie and Guan Rui also walked out of the hall, and Meng Jiefang hurriedly greeted them.

"What's going on?"

Jiang Huijie took off her gloves and said to Meng Jiefang: "It is preliminarily determined that it is a suicide, and the colleagues from the technical department will come later, and then do a further on-site inspection." ”

"Suicide...... Meng Jiefang wiped the sweat from his forehead and seemed to be relieved.

The heart said what happened in the past few days, Li Zhun died, Zhao Jianghai died, and now Sun Lixing has died, if he kills again, the number of murders in a few days can catch up with the number of previous years!

"What about the cause of death?"

When asked about the cause of death, Jiang Huijie also hesitated, looked at Guan Rui, and then said to Meng Jiefang: "After a preliminary investigation, it is ...... It's drowning. ”

"Drowning? Drowned? Meng Jiefang's back suddenly cooled, and his heart was full of the sentence "Water is good, and if you touch it, you will die"!

Yan Yu was also surprised, but he saw the problem: "How could he drown in the hall, this is also suicide?" It's a bit difficult......"

Jiang Huijie looked at Yan Yu, but did not answer, as if Yan Yu had no right to discuss the case, she still maintained her professional attitude.

After all, Yan Yu was brought by Guan Rui, he was not on the right path with Jiang Huijie, so he naturally wanted to cover Yan Yu, and said to Yan Yu at this time: "No, according to the traces inside, this should be the scene of the crime." ”

"This is the scene of the crime? That...... And what is the lethal thing? There was no water tank or anything like that in the hall...... And he didn't plant a ...... in the tank."

Guan Rui also frowned, but was silent.

Jiang Huijie couldn't help it: "You don't have to have water to drown people, have you ever heard of dry drowning?" ”

"Dry drowning?" At that time, the criminal investigation technology was very backward, and Jiang Huijie was a senior talent who returned from abroad, and everyone was very interested in her arguments.

Jiang Huijie also doesn't sell Guan Zi: "The so-called dry drowning, academically called dry drowning, is because of strong stimulation, dwarf cold, frightened or overly nervous, resulting in laryngeal spasm, glottis closure and inability to breathe normally, and finally suffocation, lack of oxygen and death." ”

"The deceased's lips were dry, his face was swollen, and all the signs were consistent with dry drowning, which was manifested as no water in the lungs, or a small amount of water, and there was foam in the deceased's mouth, which should have caused dry drowning caused by a small amount of water in the lungs."

Meng Jiefang, Wang Guoqing and others were also full of surprise: "Just ...... Can drown people just like that? The old people said that they would drown themselves by urinating, but it turned out that it was really possible......"

Jiang Huijie didn't have much expression, but instead cast her eyes on Yan Yu's body, and said to Meng Jiefang: "Captain Meng, this Teacher Yan is not our insider, this is the first-hand information of the homicide, is there really no problem in doing so?" ”

Meng Jiefang was also embarrassed, and Yan Yu didn't know why Jiang Huijie wanted to target herself, maybe just because she was professional, or was there something else hidden?
