They have already made a division of labor in advance, and each has its own arrangements.

It was almost an hour before the car came to a slow stop.

It was already noon.

One by one, the people in action got out of the car and prepared to start the search.

There is no rain in this area now, but the ground is wet, and it is not difficult to see that there was also a rain not long ago.

The search party has narrowed the scope and gradually formed an encirclement.

But, even so, the diameter of this range, there are still three or four hundred meters.

There are not many of them, and in addition to the mud on the ground on rainy days, if you step down, you may step on a mud hole and fall into half.

Although it is not difficult to lift your feet out, there will always be an impact on their speed.

In such an environment, if the murderer is actually encountered, the process of pursuit will also be disrupted.

"Report, the murderer is very likely to be in the circle!" Someone came to report.

Lao Lin was beside him, vigilantly observing the surroundings.

And after Xin Shuitong and Lin Ting got out of the car, the pen in their hands did not stop, and they speculated while following the team to go deeper.

Her gaze was always on the ground.

There is no doubt that there is no trace of this area except for the footprints of their own people.

Not even the beasts.

On the periphery of the barren woods, it looks like a desolate, slippery dead wood, upside down or leaning, next to each other, barely supporting it.

The land was parched, and most of it cracked straight away, leaving a small crack.

However, the further you go in, the wetter the ground becomes. Similar to soft soil, trees are close to each other, and most of the time, only one person can walk through them.

One by one, slowly moving forward.

On the other side, it pushes it inside in a circular trajectory.

The deeper you go, the softer the ground becomes.

Lao Lin in front suddenly stopped and made a gesture. The people in the rear all stopped and carefully dispersed.

Xin Shuitong looked ahead and talked to Lin Ting in a low voice, "It seems to be a swamp ahead." ”

Between the two rows of trees, there is a layer of muddy weeds, similar to bryophytes. There was also a pool of water in the middle, and I didn't know where it flowed in, and I couldn't see where the end was.

Lin Ting looked over, nodded, and muttered, "You may need to bypass it." ”

The thick layer of grass stretches endlessly, and at a glance, there is no end in sight.

Xin Shuitong sighed and made a small record.

These decision-making matters do not belong to their category, they can only listen to Lao Lin's command and see how he wants to solve them.

"There's a log cabin in front." At this end, Lao Lin was also communicating with his subordinates on the side.

He took out a small military binoculars from his pocket, walked to a higher place, and looked at the cabin in front of him.

Through the telescope, you can see that the whole cabin is elevated, and there should have been people raising livestock underneath, but the whole wooden house is so damaged that you can even see a hole as big as a watermelon in the roof.

"Brother Lin, we can go there and have a look." The subordinate on the side took the telescope in his hand, suggested to him, and looked at Lao Lin who was contemplating.

He is the most flexible and agile cadre under Lao Lin, and he has fought side by side with Lao Lin for many years, and the two have already honed an incomparable tacit understanding and trust.

The encirclement had been narrowed, and the wooden house was on the edge, surrounded by quagmire that could not be discernible to the naked eye, from which it could sink into it without being able to extricate itself.

"There's no need to take risks." Lao Lin shook his head and did not approve of this approach.

Although a small cabin can be used as a temporary rest point for everyone to make a short repair, the target is too large, and it is very easy to expose your own deployment power, the enemy is in the dark, and our side is in the light, which is itself in a disadvantageous position.

"Keep going!" Lao Lin issued orders through the walkie-talkie.

The investigators in the back were shocked, although their bodies were exhausted and their mental state was not good, but it was the nature of the soldiers to obey orders, and they had to obey the command no matter how hard and tired they were.

The order was conveyed to the rear, and everyone began to move forward.

Xin Shuitong leaned against the trunk of the tree on the side, propped up his body with his hands, and began to continue walking.

"Are you alright?" Lin Ting held her arm.

She nodded.

This time, the team moved more slowly.

Ahead, they cut off two long, thick sticks from nowhere, took two steps, and poked them on the ground. As soon as they find something deep underneath, they will be instructed to go around a little to the side.

Lin Ting also picked a branch on the ground and poked it.

"You say, if the murderer was really inside, where would he be?" Xin Shuitong asked suddenly.

The swampy area is relatively empty.

And they gradually approached in a circular fashion, and at a glance, there was nowhere to hide.

Lin Ting also frowned. What they could think of, the people of those troops in front, it was simply impossible not to think of it.

The two stopped.

But the people behind them still keep moving forward. When some policemen passed by, they asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”

Xin Shuitong shook his head, "It's okay." ”

She pulled Lin Ting and followed them slowly.

Originally, the position of the forensic doctor was relatively backward, and she was so delayed.

Lin Ting and her were even more left behind in the team.

They subconsciously quickened their pace, but the ground was too muddy, and she accidentally stepped into a deep pit.

"Don't struggle." Lin Ting hurriedly stopped her movements, and soothed with his eyes, "You try to keep your body balanced, lean on the supporting foot on the other side, and I'll go find a rope to pull you out." ”

There were several people in the back, and when they saw this situation, they also hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Xin Shuitong clearly felt that one of his feet was slowly sinking.

She knew very well that it was buoyancy on the swamp, and it was no longer enough to support her gravity. She listened to Lin Ting as much as she could, leaning her body towards a place with a support point on the side.

Finally, Lin Ting trotted over, he tied one side of the rope to her waist, and admonished: "Try not to struggle for a while, if you feel a lot of pain in your waist, pull the rope a little." ”

Xin Shuitong nodded, and he made a gesture.

She immediately felt that the rope was straightening and that someone was pulling at the rope behind her. She took advantage of her strength to move in that direction, and a searcher walked to the side and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

Xin Shuitong let out a long sigh and cleared his throat, "It's okay." ”

All the things in her hands have been handed over to Lin Ting.

Everyone present, except for Lin Ting, who is more familiar, she almost doesn't know the others.

Suddenly, someone came up enthusiastically, and her heart was alarmed, but there was nothing she could do.
