This time, everyone met an opponent, Zhao Zimeng was anxious, and the others were a little out of breath. Xiao Lao's words reinvigorated the comrades: "As long as the deceased is from Moling Road, the Thirteen Battalions, Huashen Town, and Liuyedu—take a step back, as long as the deceased appeared in these four places during his lifetime, we will definitely be able to find him." ”

Xiao Lao's words are not only comfort and encouragement to comrades, but also full of self-confidence. Xiao Lao's self-confidence is well-founded.

The key to this case is to determine the identity of the deceased, as long as you can figure out the identity of the deceased, you will definitely be able to find the murderer.

At about half past eleven o'clock in the evening of August 19, Zhao Zimeng and Xiao Lao were awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

The one who knocked on the door was Director Xu of the Huashen Town Police Station, and he brought a person, who was Fan Dengbiao, a fisherman in Liuyedu.

At that time, Zhao Zimeng, Xiao Lao, Ling Hu Yunfei, and Xiang Daimo were lying on the couch discussing the case.

Linghu Yunfei had contact with this Fan Dengbiao once, and at that time, Fan Dengbiao did not provide any information. He is coming to visit tonight, and there must be something very important.

Linghu Yunfei pulled Director Xu and Fan Dengbiao to the edge of the bed and sat down.

Van Dengbiao is about forty-five years old, and he has very dark skin.

"Fan Dengbiao, you say it!"

"Here's the situation, last night, when my son came back from school, and while he was having dinner, I was chatting with my wife - talking about your case, and my son suddenly - suddenly remembered something, and after he reminded me, I also remembered."

"Master Fan, say it quickly."

"This spring, the teaching building of my son's school tilted, to be demolished and rebuilt, the school let the students have a holiday in advance, those days, he and I went up and down the wire net on the Qinnan River every night, every time we went down the wire net, the farthest place only went down to the dock of the pickle factory, and the dock of the pickle factory was not docked with a big wooden boat?"

A few people also remembered the big wooden boat about six meters long, a few days ago, everyone saw this boat outside the back door of the pickle factory?

I also didn't know how to mention this boat once.

"They went down to the boat every night with their wire nets." Director Xu added.

"One night, it was the night of April 11th, and it was also this time, about half past eleven, when we went down the wire net to the dock of the pickle factory, the boat was still there, but an hour later, when we received the dock of the pickle factory, the boat was gone."

"My son has a good memory, and he remembered it. You don't know that the ship only carries things during the day, and no one moves it at night. ”

"Master Fan, this information you provided is very important."

"I'm not done yet? When we were collecting the wire mesh in the north, we saw a boat on the river in front of Ma Qiliang's vegetable field. ”

"What place to the north you are talking about?"

"We all laid the wire net four or five meters away from the shore, where the water is relatively shallow, and the north bank I am talking about is opposite Ma Po Nunnery - the river bank four or five meters away in front of Ma Qiliang's vegetable field. This is where you found the headless corpse. ”

The time of the deceased's death was about two months, and it is estimated that the specific time of the deceased's murder should be in mid-April, and the time provided by Fan Dengbiao is April 11.

This anastomosis should be very high. If the wooden boat on the dock of the pickle factory was the means of transportation used by the murderer to sink the body, then the first scene of the crime should have been near the pickle factory.

"Could you please draw the route of the lower screen on a piece of paper, where does it start and where does it end?"

Lin Di tore out a piece of paper from the transcript and handed it to Fan Dengbiao along with a pen.

"I can't read a few words, let alone draw, so I'll tell you, you can draw it!"

So, Fan Dengbiao narrated, and Zhao Zimeng painted.

A few minutes later, a sketch was finally drawn.

It is necessary to shed some light on this sketch.

The route of the wooden boat is the route of the wire net, which starts at 300 meters west of the dock of the pickle factory and ends at the wooden boat on the pier of the pickle factory.

After lowering the wire net on the south bank, the fishing boat rowed north to the river in front of Ma Qiliang's vegetable field on the other side of the river, and then began to collect the wire net, and finally ended on the river in front of the police station.

The place where the body was found was at the easternmost point of the Northern Front.

After listening to Fan Dengbiao's words, Xiao Lao and Zhao Zimeng were already able to determine that the wooden boat that Fan Dengbiao's father and son encountered in the middle of the night on April 11 was most likely the big wooden boat parked on the dock by the pickle factory, and this was most likely the means of transportation used by the murderer to sink the corpse.

"It was raining that night, and it was still raining heavily, and there was a layer of fog on the river, so after we laid the wire net, we rowed the boat a little further away from the river bank and beat the water with bamboo poles."

When Bao Yaqin confessed to the crime, she once mentioned the weather, and at that time, it rained for many days in a row.

"Why do you want to beat the water with a bamboo pole?"

"Drive the fish to the river, isn't there a wire net on the riverbank!"

"Can you recount the sight of the wooden boat in detail?"

"I was about to say that this matter, it was my son who saw the boat first, when we saw the boat, its location was in front of Ma Qiliang's vegetable field, you may not know, on this river, we are not the only people who put down the wire net, usually, everyone is fixed in a certain section of the river under the wire net, but if no one else gets the wire net, others can go down the wire net."

Fan Dengbiao continued: "But our ship is already under the wire net, and under normal circumstances, others will not put the wire mesh again. So, we kept an eye on the boat, and as we got closer to it, it rowed away—much faster, and it had been parked there for a while. ”

After a pause, the boat stayed on the water, either loading or unloading, the murderer should be "unloading", unloading is to unload the goods to the shore, the boat stopped four or five meters from the river bank, obviously not unloading, but sinking.

"Slowly approaching the boat? How far is your ship from that ship? ”

"It's about sixty or seventy meters!"

"Do your ships go from east to west, or from west to east?"

"Our ship goes from west to east."

"So, the ship should have been from west to east?"

"Yes, the boat rowed in the direction of Xihua Gate—suddenly much faster—as if it was deliberately avoiding us."

"How many people are on board?"

If you can see the boat, you should be able to see the people.

From murder to carrying corpses, from carrying corpses to sinking corpses, I am afraid that a person cannot do this kind of thing, let's not forget, the deceased is a fat man, and there are two oversized city wall bricks on the corpse's body?

The comrades had investigated a total of eleven boats, and these boats were all bottom-to-sky - boats without cabins, so Fan Dengbiao and his son should be able to see the people on board.

"There were two people on that boat, both in raincoats. By the time we had finished collecting the wire nets on the north shore and rowing the boat to the dock of the pickle factory, the boat had stopped at the dock again. Two days ago, when your comrade came to me to ask about the situation, I never remembered it, and tonight, if it wasn't for my son's reminder, I wouldn't have remembered it either. ”

"The first scene is not in the pickle factory, it is in the Ma Po Nunnery." Xiang Daimo said.

"If Qian Heping hadn't gone to Chongqing, I would definitely have thought that the deceased in the "6.27" headless case was Wang Hongbao. Linghu Yunfei said.

Xiao Lao heard the meaning of Ling Hu Yunfei's words: "My thoughts coincide with Ling Hu Yunfei, Wang Hongbao's age, body type, and the deceased are completely consistent; The size and location of the birthmark are also consistent with the birthmark on the back of the deceased's hand; There are also city wall bricks – and they are ready-made ones; The most important thing is that the soil near Ma Po Nunnery and Ma Po Nunnery is loess, and the yellow clay in the brick openings of the city wall belongs to a kind of soil quality. ”

"Coupled with the height, according to the information provided by Linghu Yunfei, the height of the deceased can be completely changed to one meter seventy-two; Before Wang Hongbao left the 13th camp, he lived in Ma Po Po Nunnery. It's a pity that Wang Hongbao is alive and well. Xiao Lao shook his head and sighed.

Despite this, Xiao Lao and Zhao Zimeng read some very important information from Fan Dengbiao's account:

First, the first scene should be in the 13th Battalion, which is also in line with the initial judgment and analysis of the comrades; It is possible for the murderer to sink the body on the spot, and cut off the head of the deceased in order to sink the body on the spot.

Second, the first scene is not in the Ma Po Nunnery, it is in the pickle factory, or in the vicinity of Ma Po Po Nunnery and the pickle factory.

Third, the reason why the murderer sank the body of the deceased close to the north bank was to induce the police to have an illusion, which not only achieved the purpose of sinking the body on the spot, but also shifted the police's attention and attention from the 13th Battalion to Moling Road.

The tentacles of Zhao Zimeng's thinking began to extend to the depths: "Master Fan, do you want to say that the boat that your father and son saw in front of Ma Qiliang's vegetable field may be the one parked on the dock of the pickle factory?" ”

"Not possibly, it must be."

"Why are you so sure?"

"On the Qinnan River, there are a total of eleven boats, this- you can ask Liu Laosi of Liuyedu, and he will tell you the same."

"Yes, it is indeed eleven boats—including Liu Laosi's ferry, a total of twelve boats." Director Xu said.

"The other ten boats are relatively small, and on this river, the largest boat is Liu Laosi's ferry, followed by the pickle factory, which is used to transport goods. On the Qinnan River, in addition to Liu Laosi's ferry, the largest boat is the boat of the pickle factory. ”

"Of course, on the Qinnan River, there are many boats that come and go every day, but many boats will only appear on the river during the day, and only ten boats will appear on the river when it is more quiet, and the boat in the pickle factory will not open during the day."
