Only five or six hours later, when he saw Su Cong's corpse again, the irrepressible guilt in Zhao Ming's chest suddenly churned, like hot water in a kettle, scorching his heart hurt, his hands and feet were weak, and he almost fainted.

The three of them stood side by side on the edge of the pond, staring solemnly at the corpse, which was already a little swollen and could only see its back. On the surface of the water, the red blood had become thin after several hours of diffusion, but it was still clearly visible.

The sound of 'buzzing' sounded in the distance, and when he turned to look, under the abandoned bridge in the early morning, Zhao Ming found that above the location of the pool of blood, there were countless flies flying, presumably attracted by the smell of blood.

Under the scorching sun, Sun Bin wiped the sweat from his forehead, raised his feet and went straight there.

The pool of blood had almost completely coagulated, but Rao was so, such a large area of blood still made them feel a little stunned. Sun Bin glanced around, and naturally noticed the blood passage caused by dragging.

"It looks like he was killed here and dragged to the pond." Sun Bin stated the obvious. Then I saw him look into the distance and said, "From here to the nearest community, it takes at least a quarter of an hour to walk, why are you here?" ”

Because of his sadness, Zhao Ming, who had not spoken until now, pretended to look at the surrounding environment, "Maybe it's because this place is relatively hidden and won't be seen!" ”

Sun Bin nodded, "So you mean, the two of them came here together for some reason, and then one of them was killed?" ”

In fact, thinking back to the woman in the taxi last night, Zhao Ming felt that this should not be the case. Since Su Cong asked him to talk about things, he shouldn't have brought anyone else, it must have been someone from the organization who followed Su Cong and killed him!

"I think it's possible." Zhao Ming agreed.

"It's a big puddle of blood that has to cut the artery." Sun Bin squatted next to the pool of blood, picked up a branch, and picked out the cigarette butts in the pool of blood, "It's a very ordinary cigarette butt, but the number is a bit large, it looks like it's been there for a long time." ”

Su Cong had a habit of smoking while waiting, which Zhao Ming knew.

It didn't take long for three police cars to arrive, and more than a dozen police officers quickly arrived at the scene, several salvage personnel skillfully began to enter the water, and the rest cordoned off the scene.

Minute by minute, Zhao Ming looked at the corpse in the pond intently, and gradually landed on the shore, he desperately wanted to go up and sincerely apologize to the dead Su Cong, but unfortunately in this situation, he had no way to do that.

Moreover, just now he also took the initiative to confess the relationship between his original acquaintance with Su Cong because of his panic, if he showed any abnormality at this moment, he was afraid that the hole in the lie would get bigger and bigger.

After being soaked in water for a long time, the swollen corpse looked a little disgusting, and as soon as the corpse came ashore, Sun Bin immediately walked over, Li Tao smiled at Zhao Ming, and then the two followed.

Obviously, there was only such a short distance, but Zhao Ming was still unconsciously left behind by Li Tao and Sun Bin, and at this moment he was moving almost step by step, delaying the time to see Su Cong as much as possible.

People's hearts are really complicated and unstoppable, on the one hand, Zhao Ming wants to face Su Cong as soon as possible, even if it is the dead Su Cong, and apologize. But on the other hand, he was afraid that such a moment would come, and he was worried about whether he could bear the naked, unconcealed guilt and remorse.

'Huh. Sun Bin and Li Tao, who had already arrived next to the corpse, suddenly let out a surprise in unison, and such a voice clearly entered Zhao Ming's ears, causing him to tremble.

"Huh? Who is this man? "No matter how contradictory it is, what should come will eventually come, Zhao Ming, who stood next to the corpse with difficulty, looked down, and as soon as he saw the face of the corpse, he let out a sound of surprise that was far better than that of Sun Bin and the others." This person is not Su Cong? ”

In order to confirm, Sun Bin took out the photo of Su Cong that he had prepared when he left the police station from his pocket, and compared the two with each other, the answer was undoubtedly negative, and in a hurry, he shook his head, "No." Saying that, he looked at Li Tao, "The police call said that the deceased was Su Cong?" ”

Li Tao nodded solemnly, "The voice of the person who reported the case was disguised, but the message was clearly conveyed. ”

"In this way, either he got the wrong person, or he thought that the person who died here was Su Cong!" Sun Bin said, waving his hand to signal the police to put the body down so that they could search for the fatal wound.

The salvage team was resting on the shore at the same time, and Sun Bin glanced at them, put on gloves and quickly opened the clothes of the strange deceased.

Zhao Ming saw that the deceased was not Su Cong, and while he was happy, he couldn't help but feel a little worried, if Su Cong was not killed, then where did he go, why didn't he contact me?

The fatal wound was easily discovered, after all, the large gash in the neck, which had turned white from the soaking of the river, could not be ignored.

"A knife cuts the throat, clean and neat." Sun Bin flipped the opening.

Although he is a police officer, unlike on TV, Zhao Ming and the others don't often see this kind of situation, so at this time, he can't help but feel nauseous.

But Li Tao seemed to be indifferent, still smiling, "Does the team leader think it's professional?" ”

"It looks like it." Sun Bin said, looking at the pond, "Do you think the murder weapon was taken away, or was it thrown into the pond?" ”

The sun was slightly rippling on the water that was slowly returning to calm, and if you ignored the fact that a corpse had just been salvaged from it, such a picture was beautiful. But who knows what kind of dirt is hidden behind the beauty.

Of course, the salvage crews who hadn't had time to take off their heavy diving suits showed their ugly faces as soon as they saw Sun Bin walking straight over.

"Trouble a few more people to go down, mainly to look at the bottom of the lake and see if there are any knives." Sun Bin said calmly.

Several salvage workers ignored it helplessly, stood up again, and slowly entered the water.

The police officers on the shore had already processed all the evidence that could be collected at the distance from the pool of blood to the pond, and Sun Bin saw this, considering the possibility that the murderer would casually throw the murder weapon somewhere. So the officers had to scatter and start searching.

After more than an hour of tossing, the salvage crew was required to go ashore again three times in a row, but fortunately, just when everyone was about to give up, thinking that the murder weapon must have been taken away by the murderer, the last salvage work still had a little harvest in the end.

I saw one of the salvage officers hand over a fruit knife that looked brand new with a tired face, "Team Leader Sun, is this what you are looking for?" ”

Sun Bin took the fruit knife, looked at it several times, as if asking, and said to himself, "Although Zhang Qin and Xing Tianhe were both stabbed in the heart by the fruit knife, and this fruit knife looks similar to those two." But ......" said Sun Bin, and suddenly gestured the fruit knife in his hand to Zhao Ming's neck.

The cold blade rushed towards Zhao Ming's nose with the moisture of the lake, making him still afraid even though he knew that such behavior was just Sun Bin doing an experiment.

"Cutting your throat with a fruit knife is not an exaggeration?"

Seeing this, Li Tao probably saw such a funny scene at this crime scene, and the smile on his face couldn't help but be stronger: "Team leader, if you look at it from another angle, this fruit knife is indeed very likely to be a murder weapon, after all, you see, there is no one around here, even if someone will come here to play, they will not bring a knife, let alone a brand-new knife." And you look at the gloss on the knife, apparently it hasn't been in the water for long. ”

Sun Bin nodded, and finally removed the blade around Zhao Ming's neck. But at the same time, Zhao Ming's doubts about Li Tao suddenly deepened.

What is the strange feeling that has been haunting me lately?

Is it jealous that Li Tao, who entered the police station at about the same time, seems to be much, much more experienced than himself in investigating cases? also said that he felt inexplicable, Li Tao was a level higher than himself?

Even, Zhao Ming had an illusion in a trance, and for a while, the figures of Li Tao and Sun Bin began to overlap, and Li Tao's figure became tall and became a veteran police officer with decades of experience.
