Chapter 118: The Mysterious Man (8)
γFlag .γ, popular free reading!
The greed and viciousness of the human heart are far more terrifying than any terrible-looking ghosts. For Luo Chuan, even if there are really ghosts in this world, the ghosts are ghosts, monsters are monsters, and people ...... Sometimes it's not really human.
Take the criminals in the dark web, each of whom has the blood of their own kind on their hands, and they do it for fun and excitement. If some animals eat their own kind because of the instinct of survival, then humans can only kill their own kind for psychological distortion and excitement. In this comparison, the cruelty of these people is far better than that of those cold-blooded animals.
Xiao Wang didn't speculate too much about the meaning of Luo Chuan's words, but when he first heard this, he also felt a little shocked. As criminal policemen, they see the dark side of human nature, naturally more than ordinary people.
Luo Chuan walked into the coffin, entered the tomb, and continued down the rough dirt steps. It wasn't that deep, but the space should be the size of an entire tomb. In the dimly lit tomb, even the dirt smelled of death.
Luo Chuan waved his hand lightly in front of his mouth and nose, wanting to dispel this not very pleasant smell. Xiao Wang also followed, and used a small flashlight to help Luo Chuan shine the light.
In the light, they could clearly see the basic situation in this tomb.
As Luo Chuan thought, there were no dead people here. But there are many bottles and cans of different sizes neatly arranged in the corner, and they are soaked in various organs and a certain part of the human body.
Xiao Wang grinned and walked to one of the jars, squatted down, shone it with a flashlight, and looked at it carefully before asking Luo Chuan: "Team Luo...... Is this the tongue? β
Luo Chuan glanced at the tongue that was soaked in the jar and had a broken tongue, frowned slightly, and said, "What is hidden in this place should be the criminal's loot and souvenirs." If you can't accept it, don't look at it, go and call someone. β
Xiao Wang wanted to refuse and try to show himself in front of Luo Chuan, but he saw Luo Chuan's impatient way of waving his hand at him, obviously urging him to go out and call someone quickly. There was no way, Xiao Wang could only hand the flashlight to Luo Chuan, and he withdrew from the grave first.
Luo Chuan turned on the flashlight and carefully looked at every bottle in the corner, although these bottles were placed in the grave, they were not very dirty, it can be seen that they are often wiped, or they have not been transported for a long time. As for what's in the bottle, the tongue is already considered the most normal. There are also umbilical cords, stillborn babies, lucky organs, dissected intestines, and so on...... Luo Chuan was thinking that these things might be souvenirs left by the buyer, or they could be collectibles left by the seller. You must know that in the dark web, these things are definitely not sold. As long as someone can get it, someone is willing to pay for it. There are so many things in this world that people can collect everything. Organs, hair, stumps, and even carrion.
Luo Chuan looked away from the bottle and looked at the two laptops in the other corner. The style is a bit old, and it is covered with a thin layer of dust. It looks like the computer must have arrived a little earlier than the bottles.
The grave was littered with discarded newspapers, and Luo Chuan couldn't think of what they were used for. He was careful to avoid the discarded newspapers scattered on the ground, and he didn't touch anything here. In this small tomb, there may be many secrets of the dark web, and Luo Chuan does not dare to act rashly. Even those newspapers on the ground should not be useless.
Further inside, to the right of the organ bottle, under a pile of newspapers, there seemed to be a box twenty-five centimeters square. There are a lot of things hidden in this deep pit, but this box attracts Luo Chuan's attention the most.
Luo Chuan gently opened the newspaper with a flashlight and looked at the box.
It doesn't seem to be anything special, it's just an ordinary tin box with an ordinary lock hanging on it.
Luo Chuan was stunned for two seconds, then took out the key left by the man in black just now, and compared it slightly in front of the lock...... Well, that should be right. This key should be the one who opened this lock. Did the man in black deliberately leave this key just so that Luo Chuan could see the contents of the box? Thinking of this, Luo Chuan was already a little impatient to open the box.
At this time, there were already police officers coming down from the "coffin" one after another, but because of the limited space, the police officers who came down were the main force of the forensic department.
One of the white and innocent police officers said to Luo Chuan while wearing gloves: "Team Luo, the cases you have discovered are really bizarre!" You can even dig up a big case in the cemetery! β
Luo Chuan thought back to the file a year ago and replied: "There have been cases of mystery under the coffin before. And this time, I was also brought here. You take those organs out carefully, and the newspapers, waste paper, and garbage here must be brought back with you just as well. This place is special, and anything that is inconspicuous can be an important clue, so be sure to be careful. Great work. β
The police officers responded energetically: "Team Luo, don't worry!" It's stuffy here, so you might as well go up and wait! β
Before Luo Chuan could reply, a tall and thin police officer squatted in the corner and said, "Don't go, don't go, Team Luo, come and take a look, this ...... Do you have to take it away as evidence? β
Luo Chuan walked over and saw that the tall and thin police officer was rubbing the soil on the ground with his hand, and if he looked closely, there seemed to be a withered flower and a bag of plant seeds in the soil.
Everyone gathered around and said, "Seeds? What a strange thing this tomb is! There are no corpses, but there are countless organs. There are no living people, but there are newspapers of various time periods. There is no big girl, but there is still a flower...... Where is this? Are these newspapers for the dead to learn about society? The officers kept shaking their heads, full of doubts and puzzles about this strange and bizarre case.
Luo Chuan, on the other hand, looked at the bag of seeds and was distracted. Because he thought of a possibility that would perfectly explain why these bits and pieces of donkey's lips and horses' mouths were all present in this tomb. Organs are the evidence of crime that criminals collect. Newspapers, it is likely that they are always paying attention to the news of the missing people and the progress of solving the case. As for flowers and seeds...... Needless to say, of course, a necessity for crime. Su Wen once said that at the moment she was killed, the last thing she smelled was a strange fragrance of flowers. Facts have also proved that she has indeed been poisoned by plants. Just as Luo Chuan thought before, there must be a very professional "flower farmer" to help these criminals on the dark web provide poison that fascinates the victims. Therefore, Luo Chuan did not find these things strange in this tomb, but could fully understand them.
Luo Chuan only ordered all of them to be brought back to the police force, and did not continue to say more at the scene. There are some things that cannot be explained in one or two sentences.
And so, by the time they had searched all the graves, it was already afternoon. There are a lot of things that have been searched, enough for the criminal police team to be busy for a while. Luo Chuan also returned to the police force very tired, this time the action of luring the snake out of the hole, although it did not attract the demon, but it attracted the man in black. Along with it, so many secrets have been discovered. Therefore, this operation is not a failure. It's just that Luo Chuan's heart has been very uncomfortable since he saw the man in black, and now he would rather return in vain today than that terrible speculation is true.
Mu Sen, the myth of solving the case in the past, how could he fall into the dark web and become a part of the darkness!
Walking in the corridor of the police force, Luo Chuan had something on his mind and almost bumped into the oncoming person. Luo Chuan stood and looked, it turned out to be Ke Xue!
"Xiaoxue? You...... How did you get out of the hospital?! Luo Chuan's expression was slightly surprised.
Ke Xue still has bruises on her face that have not healed, and her arms are still hanging on her chest with a plaster. Walking is not as flamboyant as usual, and it looks like there should be no need for crutches just now.
This young man who escaped death and did not die, although he looked sick all over his body, the only thing that did not change was his vigorous and sunny smile. At this moment, he was looking at Luo Chuan proudly, and said with a happy smile: "Team Luo, I'm back!" Aren't you happy to see me like that? I miss you all to death, if it weren't for my family staring at me every day, I would have run back a long time ago! β
Luo Chuan looked at Ke Xue and said with a helpless smile: "You are so seriously injured, you shouldn't be in a hurry to be discharged from the hospital!" Why don't you take a little longer? Having said that, Luo Chuan was really happy to see Ke Xue standing in front of him like this today. Nothing is more important than being alive......
Luo Chuan helped Ke Xue and asked him to sit in the office and said.
But Ke Xue stubbornly smiled and refused, preferring to go by herself: "Team Luo, don't use me as a sick number!" I'm completely fine with self-care now. It might be a little difficult for me to catch a snitch right away, but it's okay to do my job! As he spoke, Ke Xue took out a few pieces of paper from the crossbody bag on her body, and winked at Luo Chuan with a smile.
Luo Chuan took the pieces of paper curiously, but he didn't rush to look at them. After taking Ke Xue back to the office and helping him sit down completely, Luo Chuan looked at the information in his hand.
It turned out that what Ke Xue gave to Luo Chuan turned out to be Su Wen's information and screenshots of the hospital's surveillance video.
"This ...... When did you do it? Luo Chuan felt a little incredible, because Ke Xue had been recuperating in the hospital, and no one had told him what had happened in the police force. Su Wen's disappearance only happened today, how could he insist on doing these investigations with injuries?
Ke Xue sat up a little straighter, and then lowered his voice with some shame and said, "Team Luo...... I'm sorry, but I messed up the case last time...... It's so big that you worry about me. I was sick every day in the hospital, and I just wanted to help you with something, so I asked my colleagues in our team about the latest case. It's me who is bad, I hope you don't blame them. β
Luo Chuan looked at Ke Xue, and his heart was mixed for a while. This young man, although he is not much younger than Luo Chuan, after all, his family conditions are good and he does not have much experience. It's really rare for him to be so strong in his beliefs. Looking at today's profession and the people in this position, how many of them are vegetarian and fed all day long? But Ke Xue is focused on solving the case at this age, which makes Luo Chuan happy and very moved.
"In the last case, you have done a very good job, successfully completed your task, and protected important witnesses. In the future, we must pay more attention to safety, and protect ourselves while protecting others. Luo Chuan's gentle advice made Ke Xue's eyes shine again.
He nodded excitedly, and then said to Luo Chuan: "Team Luo, I have investigated Su Wen in the past two days, she is indeed an ordinary person, she has no criminal record, and she has no bad record. But through her social networks, I found out that she had a good chat with netizens before. Can't track down any information, and don't know if the other party is a man or a woman, this mysterious person doesn't know if it will have something to do with her being kidnapped on the dark web. β
Saying that, Ke Xue ignored her mobility difficulties, stood up and walked in front of Luo Chuan, took the screenshots of the video and said: "Look, this is what I found after calling up the hospital surveillance, you may not be able to see the screenshot photos, but the video screen really surprised me." At about four o'clock in the morning, the surveillance on the floor where Su Wen was located suddenly began to move up until he could only look at the ceiling. By the time the doctors found out that Su Wen was missing, the surveillance had been recording for several hours. β
"Someone took advantage of the blind spot to go under the surveillance and then pushed the surveillance camera up with some kind of object." Luo Chuan said in a deep voice.
Ke Xue scratched her hair in annoyance and said, "It must be, otherwise, could it be that the ghost pushed the camera?" Don't you know, when I saw that paragraph at the time, I couldn't close my mouth in shock! I really can't believe that anyone can do this kind of thing, the criminal took Su Wen out of the hospital, and it wasn't a camera to hide! There were five or six surveillances in the hallway, and I don't know how he managed to avoid them perfectly. β
Luo Chuan answered: "At least, it should be someone who is very familiar with the hospital." There are a lot of monitoring in hospitals, but not all of them work. The person who took Su Wen away must have carefully studied the monitoring of the hospital for a long time, and experimented repeatedly until the last real execution. β
"But...... There are a lot of people coming and going in the hospital every day, and it's not easy to rule out suspects! β
"It's okay, take your time." Luo Chuan encouraged Ke Xue and encouraged himself. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, you still have to keep going.
Ke Xue suddenly remembered something at this time, so she said to Luo Chuan: "Oh yes...... Team Luo, I also received the photos from Xiao Wang, and I went to help investigate them as soon as possible. But...... It's really hard to determine a person's identity based on a black-and-white photo alone, and if you say that you are 100% sure of the goal, there is none. Similarity between fifty and sixty ...... But there are tens of thousands of ......" Ke Xue looked at Luo Chuan apologetically, he didn't bring any particularly valuable information.
