Chapter 101: Plaster Seal
Early the next morning, Tang Tao and his entourage walked into the ten-story villa of the Ma family, which was richly decorated, and I have to say that the Ma family is really rich.
When Tang Tao pushed open the door of the tenth floor, a strong smell of incense and candles came to the surface, and there was a huge crucifix hanging opposite, in front of the cross was a desk, in front of the desk were dozens of benches, this was actually a Christian church, the church was lit around a dozen large candles, and the ceiling was also modeled after a Western-style church with more than a dozen huge oil paintings.
The relationship in the church is dim and oppressive, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.
"Are the people in the village religious?" Tang Tao asked.
"Believe, but they all believe in Buddhism, Ma Jinlong's mother Zhou Bicui is a well-known good person in us, the Yunfeng Temple in the township was repaired at her expense, and there is a monument of her merit on the mountain, and it is not uncommon for her family to have a church." Hu Ling said.
Sophie touched a bench and found that it had not been taken care of in a long time.
It is a private church.
Zhang Li sniffed his nose and said with some confusion: "I smell a smell of formalin." ”
Sophie sniffed it too, and she smelled it too.
"It's strange, how can there be a smell of formalin in the church? Bicui is really a weird person this week, if her surname is Christ, how can she go to repair the Buddhist temple, does she still have two beliefs? Sophie asked.
"No way, belief in this kind of thing is very sacred, especially religion, although religion advocates tolerance, but a person will never believe in two different religions at the same time." Tang Tao raised his head and looked at the huge statue of Jesus and said, "Maybe she repaired the temple completely out of kindness according to the Lord's idea, which has nothing to do with faith." ”
The more Tang Tao looked, the more he felt that this cross was a little strange, this floor was only three meters high, the two ends of the cross touched the roof and the ground, as if standing on the ground, Jesus seemed to be made of plaster, and Jesus' clothes were painted with oil paint, Jesus tilted his head, and his hands nailed two huge iron nails.
"I'm rubbing, isn't this Jesus a little too big?" Yue Yang couldn't help but complain.
Proportion!
Tang Tao suddenly realized.
That's right, it's proportions, and this Jesus is almost one-to-one according to a normal male.
The crosses in the regular church are very tall, the vertical is very long, and the horizontal is much shorter, but the cross in front of it is too long, it does not look like a cross, but a "ten", especially the big Jesus is a bit exaggerated, and the cross placed in such a large Jesus statue in the cathedral is at least more than five meters.
Tension leaned closer to the statue of Jesus and sniffed again.
"That's right, that's what the smell of formalin comes from."
"It's impossible, it's plaster, what are you doing with formalin?" As he spoke, Yue Yang tapped Jesus' knee.
"Smack!"
Jesus' knee was instantly broken by Yue Yang.
Yue Yang hurriedly apologized.
"I'm sorry, God forbid, don't blame me, Amen."
At this time, everyone present smelled a rancid stench, which came from Jesus' knees.
"What a familiar smell, it's a corpse smell!" Zhang Zhang said.
Zombie stench?
Everyone's faces changed suddenly, and they all stepped back, picked up their flashlights, and pointed them at the hole in Jesus' knee.
A fact, which made everyone creep, was placed in front of everyone.
Is there a dried corpse in this statue of Jesus?
Tang Tao picked up the mallet on the desk and struck Jesus' thigh hard, and a large piece of plaster was shattered and fell to the ground with a clatter.
A shriveled and shrunken thigh appeared in front of everyone's eyes without warning, this leg had already dried and waxed, indicating that it exuded a bacon-like luster, and the long-sealed stench gushed out.
The smell was so bad that Sophie turned her head and almost threw it up.
There is a dried corpse sealed in the church of the vest, and there are people who often pray here, which makes people's hairs stand on their hands and feet to think about it.
After the criminal police team blocked the scene, the forensic doctor knocked on all the plasters, and the dried corpse appeared in front of everyone's eyes completely, this is a male corpse, about one meter seven in height, the eyes of the dry corpse have been gouged out, there is a huge hole in the stomach, and the internal organs inside have also been hollowed out, replaced by a large amount of spices and cotton, both hands and feet have been nailed to the cross, the corpse has a layer of hoarfrost, unkempt hair, and two hollow eye sockets are particularly scary.
"What's that white thing?" Yue Yang asked.
Zhang Zhang glanced at him and asked, "Do you like bacon?" ”
"Like, what's wrong?"
"Have you ever seen cured bacon? The corpse was marinated like cured bacon, and the murderer removed the organs and eyeballs of the deceased to prevent decay, and then he salted the corpse as a whole, dried it, and finally filled the abdominal cavity with spices to prevent decay, and then sealed it with plaster after applying formalin, and over time the salt precipitated from the skin and flesh and became a layer of salt cream on the skin. ”
Yue Yang felt a tingling in his throat.
Zhang Zhang continued to introduce with interest: "Actually, it's nothing, isn't the pork we eat the carcass of a pig?" Bacon is dried corpses, and fish sauce, that is corpse oil, mummies were also made in ancient Egypt, the only difference is that they put the internal organs into bottles, this murderer actually knows how to embalm, it's really not simple. ”
When he said this, everyone was speechless, do you still have to eat tomorrow?
Plaster sealed corpses, human mummies, not to mention in the small Donghua Township, even if it is placed in the whole country, it is a shocking big case.
When the city heard of this, it immediately mobilized a large number of elites to set up a special case group, which was personally led and commanded by provincial and municipal leaders, and the Qingzhou Serious Case Group officially joined the task force.
In the afternoon of the same day, Ma Jinbo's personal thug Wang Hu was also arrested by the police from the next county, and it was he who discovered Zhang Li's true identity in the monitoring room that night.
After Ma Jinbo learned of this, he immediately said that he would close his business, and asked Wang Hu and others to run away that night, and wait for the specific time to come back.
As for Ma Jinbo's movements, Wang Hu and others also don't know.
The police retrieved Ma Jinbo's communication records, and Ma Jinbo's last call was actually to his mother Zhou Bicui, and the call time was 3:20 in the morning, and the call lasted for a full ten minutes, which happened to coincide with the time when Ma Jinbo committed the crime, which means that his distress call was made to his mother.
The person who is just Ma Jinbo behind is his mother Zhou Bicui!
And the surrounding neighbors also reacted that the church was Zhou Bicui's, and she would wear a cross around her neck wherever she went, and she was a Christian.
