Qin Dazhao continued: "The nearby residents like to go up the mountain for morning exercises, after dinner, they like to go for a walk in the mountains, and young men and women like to go to the woods and bamboo forests to fall in love at night. ”

"Someone has seen some potholes in the woods and bamboo forests, most likely left by tomb robbers when they were looking for ancient tombs. Now it seems that the legendary tomb may have been near the scene of the crime; It is also said that the earliest owner of No. 117 was a mausoleum keeper. In the early days, there were only a few families here, and Huaigu Village came later, and in the past, it was very deserted. ”

"How old is House 117?"

"Professor Jin said that it has been more than 300 years, and No. 117 is a building during the Ming Dynasty."

"Who is Professor Jin?" Zhao Zimeng heard about Professor Jin for the first time.

"He is a professor in the Department of Archaeology of Southern University, specializing in ancient architecture, and the ancient architecture expert I mentioned earlier is him, and whether to keep or demolish the ancient buildings in the back village of Huaigu Village is a decision made on the basis of the field investigation of Professor Jin's team." Qin Dazhao explained.

"The robbery hole is under the foundation of No. 117, and this case is kind of interesting." Xiang Daimo said.

"Does No. 117 have a yard?" Linghu Yunfei said.

"There is a yard, or a big yard. Before the demolition, Professor Jin took a lot of photos – you will know after you have seen the photos. ”

"The tomb robbers dug a hole in the house at No. 117, covered by the house and the courtyard wall, and they were smart enough." Zhao Zimeng said.

"The tomb must be near 117 - or just below 117." Ma Jianping Road.

"How did they know that the tomb was near 117 – or below 117? These grave robbers are certainly no ordinary tomb robbers. Xiang Daimo said.

"They are digging holes in 117, what are they doing with the soil they dig up?" Ma Jianping Road.

"Yes! The amount of earthwork must be not small. Lin Di said.

"When you get to the scene, you will know that the soil in the courtyard of No. 117 is higher than the soil outside the courtyard wall - the amount of earth is not very large, but it must be the soil dug up from the robbery hole, and they put the excavated soil in the courtyard, because it is blocked by the courtyard wall, ordinary people will not find it."

Besides, the residents of the neighborhood had already moved within the stipulated time. Their abacus is very good, as soon as the construction team enters the site, the bulldozer and excavator are on together, no one will care - and they will not be able to see the soil in the yard. ”

"So, the tomb robbers started working after No. 117 moved out?" Ma Jianping Road.

This conclusion cannot be reached for the time being. Other possibilities cannot be ruled out. Linghu Yunfei said.

Although Ling Hu Yunfei did not say it explicitly, everyone understood Ling Hu Yunfei's subtext.

Yunfei was right. These grave robbers should be seasoned veterans, and we've met some of the best characters this time. Zhao Zimeng also agreed with Yunfei.

"Captain Zhao, Director Zhang has gathered the developer, the excavator driver, the workers who were present at the time, several local residents, and the three neighbors of No. 117 to wait for you. By the way, Professor Jin also came, and he also brought an expert on cultural relics. "Qin Dazhao's preliminary work is very good.

"Thank you very much, thank you for your hard work." Zhao Zimeng sincerely thanked the partners for their support.

"It's not hard, we can only do a little bit of preparation and foreshadowing. Director Zhang also asked the person in charge of the construction site to set up four 200-watt electric lights on the site, and the on-site investigation work would not end for a while and a half. ”

"Director Zhang is very thoughtful." Zhao Zimeng said, "He thought of everything we thought of, and he thought of what we didn't think of."

"As soon as we arrived at the site, we set up a cordon, because Director Zhang greeted him in advance, and the workers were very careful during the construction."

"Legend has it that there is an ancient tomb on the mountain, and the terrain of No. 117 is relatively high. Director Zhang was worried that there were ancient tombs under the foundation, and it turned out that there were indeed ancient tombs on Ion Mountain, which were not of general specifications and grades. ”

"Oh? Where do you see it? Zhao Zimeng had a hunch that this case was unusual.

"There must be a lot of treasures in the tomb, otherwise, the tomb robbers would not choose to dig a robbery hole at No. 117, let alone fight after robbing the tomb - the rush is nothing more than wanting to share a little more things, if it is an ordinary burial goods, do they need to kill."

"When the excavator was digging the soil, it didn't dig a single stone, and the local people also said that the ion mountain was piled up with soil, what kind of mountain only has soil and no stones?" Qin Da summoned him.

"Professor Jin greeted the developer and Director Zhang during the field trip, as long as the excavator touches the soil at the foot of the mountain, you must be very careful, because Professor Jin greeted in advance, and Director Zhang sent two people to walk around the construction site."

"If the workers dig something, they may hide it. Today, they dug into the hole and a dead body, and if they only did, they would probably keep digging down. After Qin Dazhao's narration, Zhao Zimeng roughly sketched the outline of the case in his heart.

When the car enters a narrow stone road, the person sitting in the car can see the red mountain forest in front of it.

It's autumn, and the leaves that should turn yellow are all yellow, and the evergreen shrubs and bamboo forests are mixed together, and it is indeed pleasing to the eye from a distance.

"Officer Qin, is that Ion Mountain?" Linghu Yunfei said.

"Yes, that's Ion Mountain. One more cigarette is here. ”

"Isn't the mountain particularly high?" Xiang Daimo said.

"Yes! It's about two or three hundred meters high! The mountain is not high, but the trees are very dense. There are also many bamboo forests, and there is a large bamboo forest and miscellaneous forest behind No. 117. Qin Da summoned him.

"There is only one mountain in a radius of more than ten miles, which is indeed a bit abrupt. The mountain does not look like it was formed naturally after the movement of the earth's crust. Linghu Yunfei said.

"If there is an ancient tomb under the ion mountain, it should not be an ordinary ancient tomb, such a large mountain, the amount of earthwork must be very large. It took so much effort to pile up a mountain, it seems that the legend of the common people should be true. Lin Di said.

"Xiao Luhan, why don't you say a word!" Lin Di Dao.

"Am I listening to you?" Xiao Luhan touched his ears.

From beginning to end, Xiao Luhan said such a sentence, in fact, he has been listening carefully to everyone's conversation.

Xiao Luhan is twenty-eight years old this year, handsome, very gentle, with big eyes, a high nose bridge, and a height of 1.75 meters.

This young man has a habit of acting when he speaks, and that is to touch his ears.

Two years ago, Xiao Luhan graduated from the National Public Security University, he is the son of his father, and his father Xiao Changsong turned out to be the most effective cadre around Zhao Zimeng.

A few years ago, because of overwork, he finally fell ill, went to the hospital for a check, and got liver cancer, and the operation was very successful, but his body was no longer suitable to run the scene, there was nothing to do, and he was unwilling, so the bureau arranged for him to go to the forensic department to guide the work. He himself wanted to exert a little more residual heat.

Xiao Luhan was influenced by his father since he was a child, and he established his ideal of being a criminal police officer when he was in middle school.

The most prominent feature of this kid is that he has a very good memory, as long as he has read the information, he will firmly remember it in his mind.

Because of this unique advantage, he was able to analyze all the information and find the crux of the problem.

Xiao Luhan was able to be assigned to the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team after graduation, in addition to the reason for his father Xiao Changsong, the main reason was that Zhao Zimeng was in love, and Xiao Luhan's internship life was spent in the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team.

After graduation, Zhao Zimeng directly asked Xiao Luhan to come.

Xiao Luhan is introverted, loves to think, and rarely speaks when he usually concentrates on things, but after all, he is young and sometimes very active.

After walking the stone road, there is a crossroads in front of you.

"Officer Qin, how is the car going?"

"Keep going."

The car crossed a wider asphalt road and onto a narrower stone road.

"Captain Zhao, this is Huaigu Village." Qin Da summoned him.

"Sure enough, it's the old city, and even the roads are stone roads, and there are not many such roads in our western city." Xiang Daimo said.

"Why hasn't the house been demolished yet?" Ma Jianping Road.

"The current plan is to demolish only part of it, only part of it is close to the foot of the mountain - this is called Huaigu Village Qiancun, and now it is Huaigu Village and Houcun. After the completion of the first phase of the project, this place will definitely be demolished. ”

The speed of the car slowed down a lot, and in addition to the narrowness of the road, there were many people on the road, and these people were going in one direction—in the direction of Ion Mountain.

The slower ones retreated to the side of the road to let the cars pass first, and the faster ones threw off their arms and ran. These people should have gone to the scene of the crime to see the excitement.

Some of these people were attracted by the sudden appearance of police cars.

After driving more than 1,000 meters, the line of sight suddenly widened, the road became a lot wider, many houses were razed to the ground, broken walls and ruins, dilapidated doors and windows, horizontal and vertical, everywhere.

In the distance, two bulldozers and an excavator were parked.

"Why don't you tear down the wood for these doors and windows?" Lin Di Dao.

"These don't need to be removed." Qin Da summoned him.

"Why is that?"

"There are termites in these woods, doors and windows, no one will want them, otherwise, the city government would not be here to carry out demolition!" House No. 117 is considered the best, largest and most imposing ancient building in Huaigu Village, and if it weren't for termites, Professor Jin would definitely be reluctant to demolish it. ”

"That's what happened." Xiang Daimo said, "Then these doors, windows, and wood must be dealt with!" ”

"The developer plans to burn the wood of these doors and windows together, and the termites will not be extinguished without fire. When you get to the scene, you will understand that all the wooden doors and windows have been hollowed out by termites, and the bricks and tiles are supported by wooden doors and windows, and the wood, doors and windows are rotten, and after a long time, the house will definitely collapse. ”

"Officer Qin, I have a question for you." It was Xiao Luhan who spoke. His question caught everyone's attention.

"Don't dare to ask, what questions do you want to ask?"

"Is No. 117 private property?"
