Chapter 60: The Corpse Pickers
Luo Qifeng turned his head to the side, with a trace of anger hidden in his eyes, but all this was in front of Wang Jianguo and the others. Luo Qifeng knew that if he continued to consume it like this, it would not benefit him at all.
Luo Qifeng slowly sat up straight, and the fist that was still clenched just now began to slowly loosen, "Luo Yongnian and I put some stones on Guo Qian's body, tied hemp rope to her feet, and tied a big stone to it. Then I threw the body into the pond, and I don't know how it floated up again. ”
After Luo Qifeng and others confessed the facts of the crime, Wang Jianguo and the four of them walked out of the village committee and rushed directly to Liangjia Village, and the rest was handed over to Feng Jianqiang and them. Wang Lan wanted to act with Liu Yi and them, and Wang Jianguo approved it.
Wang Lan was next to Liu Yi in the car, and at a seamless distance, Liu Yi could feel the smell of a mature woman emanating from Wang Lan's body, which made him red-faced and breathless. Xu Wei looked jealous and kept looking at Liu Yi and Wang Lan's every move in the rearview mirror.
"Brother Wang, there is indeed a corpse picker. This person is at the scene of the murder every time, either deliberately following or encountering it by chance. ”
"Xiao Liu, do you mean to say that this corpse picker has been secretly observing these people?" Wang Jianguo was skeptical.
"Yes, but since there is still a distance between villages, it is impossible to squat there and monitor all the time!"
"Just say no? Knowing that my head is not bright, I was even more troubled by Luo Qifeng's anger just now. Xu Wei said arrogantly while driving.
What Liu Yi meant was that the corpse pickers probably often wandered around these villages, and they should be familiar with some of the people in the villages. Gossip can always kill a person. Zhang Jie explained.
"It's the same thing, the focus is on determining the identity of the person who picked up the corpse. I have a conjecture that I don't know if it's true. A person's name suddenly appeared in Liu Yi's head.
"Xiao Liu, tell me your conjecture!" Wang Jianguo nodded a cigarette and handed it to Liu Yi and the others.
"Master, why don't you have my share!" Xu Wei suddenly shook.
"Drive well, smoke something!" Wang Jianguo put a cigarette in Xu Wei's chest pocket.
"At first I thought that all the cases were done by one person, but now I am starting to realize that the whole case is a combination of several small cases. Each victim's body has been disposed of by the corpse picker, then the corpse picker is likely to be a literate or scientific research person, should be about forty years old, single, and have a certain amount of capital. Liu Yi still didn't say the name of the person he thought of.
"Human experiments?" Xu Wei said in surprise.
"Yes, the victim's body is mutilated, and the scavenger is most likely doing some kind of experiment. I feel that this experiment should be a test of the theory of 'Frankenstein'! When Liu Yi said this name, everyone in the car was taken aback.
"You mean the guy who doesn't exist?" Wang Lan knew about this non-existent mad scientist.
"Yes, but there are always people who think his theory is true." Liu Yi felt that Wang Lan's body was getting closer to him little by little, getting closer and closer. Although the air conditioner was turned on in the car, Liu Yi still felt stuffy in his chest.
Xu Wei saw that the position next to Zhang Jie was empty, "What's the matter?" Why is there such a big empty space in the back, I already knew that I would bring one more person. Xu Wei complained.
"You can search the villages!" Wang Jianguo said.
"There are still two villages that we don't know about in real terms, and if the body pickers are in one of these two villages, we have a chance to arrest them." Zhang Jie said affirmatively.
"Well, most of the labs are in the basement, and there must be a basement or cellar in the corpse collector's house." Liu Yi said.
According to the information provided by Feng Jianqiang, Qinjian Village is even poorer and more backward than Liangjia Village, and it is necessary to pass through Liangjia Village from Qinjian Village to Jiangbei Town. Therefore, the relationship between the two villages is good, and both villages participate in the activities organized by the county.
"It seems that Liang Tian should be able to help us!" Xu Wei said with a smile.
"Hmmm! Through Liang Tian, we can understand Qinjian Village as soon as possible. Liu Yi looked out the window and suddenly had a feeling in his heart. Sometimes feelings seem to cause more pain than hatred.
Wang Jianguo motioned for Xu Wei to drive the car directly to Liangjia Village. Liang Tian knew that Wang Jianguo and others were coming, so he immediately prepared a table of dinner. Last time, when Wang Jianguo and the others came, they were on an empty stomach, and when they left, they were still hungry, so Liang Tian felt a little guilty.
"That's a waste!" Wang Jianguo said with a smile.
"Just a few of us, it's okay, and I don't know how my craft is? My daughter-in-law left early, so I have to be strong, after all, I still have to pull the child!. Although Liang Tian's expression was calm, Wang Jianguo could feel the melancholy in his heart.
Xu Wei hurriedly sandwiched a chopstick braised pork. Wang Jianguo glanced at Xu Wei and said, "That's all you need to do!" What else can I do? ”
"Master, I haven't eaten for a day, so I'll eat a piece of meat!" Xu Wei looked aggrieved, Wang Jianguo shook his head, and there was nothing he could do about this apprentice.
"Isn't it just food! Eat more, eat more! Why don't you drink some Brother Wang? Wang Jianguo told Liang Tian that he had a task at any time and could not drink. Liang Tian was much more cheerful than the previous few times, probably because of a few sips of wine.
"Does Village Chief Liang know about Qinjian Village?" Liu Yi asked.
"Yes! We are good brothers! According to Liang Tian, the name of the village chief of Qinjian Village is Zhu Changshui. Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty-six years old, upright, willing to work, able to endure hardships, and is still single. Qinjian Village has poor land and traffic blockage, so it has not been developed.
"Tomorrow, Brother Liang, do you have time to go to Qinjian Village with us?" Wang Jianguo picked up his wine glass and said with a smile.
"No problem, you can rest here tonight! We'll leave early tomorrow morning! Liang Tian readily agreed. When drinking tea after dinner, Wang Jianguo and the others had not yet chatted a few words, when Feng Jianqiang suddenly called.
"Feng Bureau? What's wrong? After Feng Jianqiang finished handling the cases in Nanxiang Village and Liangjia Village, he suddenly received a call from the police, and it was Zhu Changshui who called the police.
Feng Jianqiang said that at around 6 o'clock this evening, Zhu Changshui and several villagers planned to dredge the canal, but found a female corpse in the canal at the east end of the village.
"Okay, Feng Ju, let's go over right away." After Wang Jianguo hung up the phone, he immediately signaled Liu Yi and the others to prepare to leave.
"I'll call Zhu Changshui in a while and tell him that you guys are coming, and if you need help, you must call me." Liang Tianmu sent Wang Jianguo and others out of the village.
"I'm still thinking I can rest for the night! It seems to be reimbursed! Xu Wei's complaining voice was really annoying. Wang Jianguo was angry when he heard this, "If you don't want to save me, hurry up and go back to the Southern District Bureau, don't embarrass me here." ”
Xu Wei saw that his master was angry, so he quickly shut his mouth. Because it was dark, the road to Qinjian Village was not easy to walk, so it took 20 minutes to drive to Qinjian Village. At this time, the entrance of the village was crowded with people, and Zhu Changshui was waiting for Wang Jianguo and them to come with a flashlight.
After Wang Jianguo got out of the car and shook hands with Zhu Changshui, everyone came to the scene, and Liu Yi found that the deceased should not be left here for a long time. Because the blood is still flowing from the waist position. Liu Yi thinks that the murderer should not be far from here, but there are no street lights in the village, so it may be a little difficult to find the murderer at night.
"Wang Group, let's come in and talk!" Zhu Changshui and several villagers carried the female corpse up. After Wang Lan's preliminary examination, "the surface of the corpse is intact, and there is a wound on the waist, which looks like someone should have taken out the kidney." The time of death should have been around six o'clock this evening, and the murderer quickly abandoned the body in this canal, and the others needed to be further autopsied. There are no facilities here, there is no way to perform an autopsy! Wang Lan shook her head.
"Let Xiao Xu transport the body back to the police station in a while, and Xiao Lan will go back with him!" Wang Jianguo began to inquire about Zhu Changshui's specific situation. And Xu Wei was secretly happy in his heart! Wang Lan glanced at Liu Yi and felt a little reluctant.
"When was the body found?" Wang Jianguo handed Zhu Changshui a cigarette.
Zhu Changshui took the cigarette and said: "Around seven forty-five, I remember very clearly, I happened to glance at my watch at that time. ”
Zhu Changshui found the female corpse by accident, when the flashlight in his hand happened to shine into the canal, the canal was dark, he used the flashlight to confirm again, and several villagers also followed, who knew that the light gathered in this black moment, which scared everyone.
"O living people!" Zhu Changshui's expression suddenly became a little exaggerated, "You have to understand! Wang Group, it's still bleeding! ”
"Don't panic first, we also want to know if there are any intellectuals in the village?" Wang Jianguo went straight to the point and directly handed over his doubts to Zhu Changshui.
"Yes! Isn't it a holiday? Many college students in the village have returned! Zhu Changshui didn't seem to understand Wang Jianguo's question.
"Brother Zhu, I'm not a college student, I should be about the same age as me."
"No, there is a very powerful person, Professor Zhao. But his character is so good, it shouldn't be him! Zhu Changshui said.
"Doesn't a good character mean that you won't sin? The heart is separated from the belly! Dude! Xu Wei leaned against the wall and reminded Zhu Changshui.
"Then we'll go to the professor's house now." Zhu Changshui got up and was about to go out. Wang Jianguo and others also followed. Zhu Changshui said that the name of the teacher Zhao is Zhao Xueguang, 62 years old, a professor at the city's medical school, because of his health, he came to the countryside to recuperate, and Qinjian Village is still Zhao Xueguang's hometown.
As he spoke, several people came to Zhao Xueguang's house, and the lights were still on in Zhao Xueguang's house at this time. Liu Yi found that Zhao Xueguang's yard was very large, and the house was much larger than others. Zhao Xueguang heard someone knocking on the door and hurriedly came out to open the door.
"Professor Zhao, it's my village head!" Zhu Changshui saw that no one had opened it for a long time, so he shouted a few times.
"Here we go! It's coming!" At this time, Zhao Xueguang's voice came from inside the house, and because Zhao Xueguang's legs and feet were not good, it took about two minutes to walk to the door. When Liu Yi saw this old man with gray temples, he understood one thing, his body could not support him to throw the corpse at all.
"Come, come, come! Come on in! Zhao Xueguang slowly opened the door.
