Chapter 202: The Forensic Doctor's Dangerous Journey Act III: The Great Discovery Halfway Up the Mountain VI
Before we begin this chapter, let's sort out the timeline so far. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Now the time of all walks of life is not at the same point.
Mo Haiyou, who disguised himself as entering the village at the foot of the mountain, and Mi Xiaodong, who was collecting evidence from the corpse at the foot of the mountain, were already in the afternoon of May 5.
As for Yun Yeyao and Luo Yifan, who wrote about reasoning before, the time point they were at was still in the middle of the night on May 4, before and after the car accident and landslide.
Around 5 p.m. on April 30, 2016: Yun arrived in S City at night.
April 30, 2016 around 8 p.m.: Yun Ye Yao entered the hotel.
Early May 1, 2016: A body was found in a hotel room. Subsequently, the police arrived at the hotel, and Xie Yunmeng appeared.
Morning of May 1, 2016: Mo Haiyou appears on the stage and begins the first examination of the corpse in the hotel bathroom, and Yun Yeyao becomes a temporary assistant.
At around 8 a.m. on May 1, 2016, everyone returned to the Pinglong Public Security Bureau with the body, where Mo Haiyou conducted an autopsy, and Xie Yunmeng and Yun Yeyao conducted a preliminary analysis and reasoning on the case.
May 1, 2016 noon: Mo Haiyou used the break to join the reasoning team, and on the afternoon of May 1, the three of them agreed and made the decision to let Yun Yeyao go up the mountain again.
Evening of May 2, 2016: Mo Haiyou announced the results of the autopsy, and the Pinglong Public Security Bureau held an emergency meeting of the task force. After unanimous discussion, they agreed to the suggestions put forward by Mo Haiyou, Xie Yunmeng and Yun Yeyao, and Yun Yeyao was ready to go up the mountain for the second time.
On May 3, 2016, Xie Yunmeng persuaded the sub-bureau chief to agree to let him go up the mountain with Yun Yeyao, and the heavy responsibility of investigating the hotel homicide fell on Mo Haiyou alone.
At 1 a.m. on May 4, 2016, Yun Yeyao and Xie Yunmeng secretly set off from the police station to L Mountain, making a detour to several small villages at the foot of L Mountain on the way to get a general understanding of the terrain and situation.
A little after 6 a.m. on May 4, 2016: Xie Yunmeng and Yun Yeyao climbed Mount L.
On the morning of May 4, 2016, Mo Haiyou found the body announced to the public in the police station, and the first found person Buhe had already been released, so he launched an investigation.
Around 8 a.m. on May 4, 2016: Yun Yeyao called Mo Haiyou from the mountain, informing him that he and Xie Yunmeng had found the unconscious Bian Benyi and his wife from the back mountain, rescued them, and sent them to the hospital.
Around 10 a.m. on May 4, 2016: Yun Yeyao and Xie Yunmeng returned to the foot of Mount L, and at around 11:20 p.m., the two arrived in front of the destroyed rope bridge.
May 4, 2016 daytime: After finishing his work in the police station in the morning, Mo Haiyou has been investigating the murder scene at the hotel in the afternoon.
On the evening of May 4, 2016, Mo Haiyou arrived at the hospital where Mr. and Mrs. Bian Benyi were located, and heard from them about the incident on the Luoque House, and between 7:30 p.m. and 8 p.m., Mo Haiyou learned that there had been a major car accident and landslide halfway up the L Mountain.
In the early morning of May 5, 2016: After a whole night of analysis and thinking, Mo Haiyou decided to embark on an investigation journey alone, and the affairs of the police station were handed over to the sub-chief.
The above is the approximate schedule for the off-site, and the approximate schedule for the off-site is:
On the afternoon of May 2, 2016, Luo Yifan, Lu Huimei, and Mr. and Mrs. Bian Benyi boarded the Luoque House.
May 2, 2016 at dinner time: All 13 people in the house, including the owner, gathered.
Bian Benyi and his wife quarreled with Jiang Xinglong and his wife, who were the last to arrive, at this time Luo Yifan found that there was an abnormal situation on the rope bridge, and everyone went to the bridge to check, and Jiang Xiaomei lost her footing.
After that, on the night of May 2, 2016, Liang Yongxin disappeared one after another, and everyone searched for them three times without success, and was trapped on the second floor of Luoque House.
During this period, Wei Guigui disappeared, Fan Xin'er was killed, Bu He fled due to excessive fright, and He Mina was knocked unconscious because of Bian Benyi's impulsiveness.
Ignoring the bloody corpses and scenes in the red room, Luo Yifan insisted on leading everyone into the secret room to find a way out.
In the early morning of May 3, 2016, everyone fell into the secret room trap set by the murderer, and all the others were forced to disappear, leaving only Luo Yifan and Jiang Xinglong trapped in the secret room.
The last two people, with the help of the mysterious deceased, escaped from the secret room on the second floor and escaped between the walls of the study and bedroom on the first floor.
May 3, 2016 daytime: Jiang Xinglong suddenly disappeared on the first floor, Luo Yifan was trapped in a triple secret room, rescued Liang Yongxin, and initially discovered the true face of the murderer, and designed to deal with the murderer.
All subsequent events occurred between May 3, 2016 and the morning of May 4, 2016.
On the afternoon of May 4, 2016, Luo Yifan met with Xie Yunmeng and Yun Yeyao, who had gone up the mountain, and began to act together, and found Jiang Xinglong and Lu Huimei and rescued them from their dangerous state.

Now that we're done with the timeline, let's get down to business:
In these chapters, the major discoveries in the middle of the mountain have been written, but there is no mention of the halfway up the mountain. The content has always hovered over the movements of Mo Haiyou and Mi Xiaodong.
Because in order to make a major discovery halfway up the mountain, it is necessary to develop step by step from the trajectory of these two people.
Halfway up the mountain, the restoration of the mountain road is in full swing, but the restoration work is very slow due to the loose rocks and mud rolling down, which is why Mei Xiaoxiao was so anxious before.
Now that Mei Xiaoxiao has been sent to a secret mission by Mi Xiaodong, what is he going to do with those police officers? We won't mention it for now.
The most important thing is the trajectory of Mi Xiaodong's side, he has been staying alone at the foot of the mountain, analyzing and reasoning about the scene of the car accident.
From the location of the body, the state of the car accident, and the evidence collected, Mi Xiaodong made a preliminary restoration of the situation at the time of the car accident in his mind.
While not all of them are true, some of them are highly probable.
Now Mi Xiaodong is leaving the scene of the car accident and walking halfway up the mountain along the mountain road.
He had already speculated that the accident might have been man-made, with the aim of destroying the scrapped trucks while causing the landslide.
The body of the woman hanging from the baffle of the car is currently unknown, and the body of the man pressed under the front of the car is likely to be the suspect or one of the suspects in the accident.
As for why this is speculated, because the storm on the night of May 4 was so fierce that it would not have been possible to reach the halfway point of the mountain in such weather if it were not for people who were very familiar with the road and who often climbed the mountain.
The male deceased was either a truck driver or a suspect in the accident.
According to the current situation, it seems that the three trucks did not fall off the cliff together after colliding. It's like one of the trucks fell from above, hit the two trucks underneath, and then fell to the bottom of the hill together.
This judgment is not Mi Xiaodong's personal opinion, but the unanimous result obtained after the expert appraisal at the scene of the previous car accident, and Mi Xiaodong has preliminarily informed Mo Haiyou of this result when he was in the taxi.
First, the truck itself doesn't look like it can move, but like a vehicle that was scrapped before the accident.
Second, there was no trace of the driver in the compartment of the three trucks, and the body of the suspected driver was not even found around the accident scene or halfway up the mountain.
Third, judging from the overlapping and shattering appearance of the three trucks, it does not look like the result of a head-on impact at all.
If it is a head-on impact, the front of the truck will be flattened and deformed, but the front of the truck is in a state of spallation.
In other words, such a state can only be formed by falling from a height, and all the front parts are just falling apart, and there are no traces of extrusion and deformation on them.
Judging by this, it means that the three trucks were not in a driving state before they fell, but in a stationary state, and they were passively dropped to the foot of the mountain by humans or landslides.
Mi Xiaodong walked up the hill while imagining what happened last night.
The suspect first parked two heavy trucks that were about to be scrapped for unknown purposes on the road halfway up the mountain, blocking the mountain road tightly to prevent people from trying to go up the mountain.
Possibly, halfway up the mountain, between the woods, there was also a truck that they hidden, probably out of use for a long time, stuck on the edge of the cliff.
An unknown murderer, after killing the female deceased at the scene of the car accident, threw the body in the bed of the truck and slipped away.
Then, the suspect who was going to cause the car accident, when he pushed the truck on the edge of the cliff, due to inertia, the woman's horrific body overturned from the truck bed, and it was raining heavily at that time, and it was pitch black all around, and whoever saw a corpse suddenly appeared would be frightened silly.
Just when the suspect was frightened and overwhelmed, the mountain under his feet suddenly collapsed, swept him into it, and fell to the foot of the mountain together.
Such speculation is the most likely to come close to the truth, but what about the female corpse? Who the hell is she? Who would be the one who killed her?
First of all, the murderer hid the body in the bed of the truck, which has an advantage: that is, the body of the heavy truck is relatively deep, and if there is a woman lying inside, even if you accidentally pass by someone nearby, you will not find it without looking closer.
The killer certainly didn't want the female body to go undetected so early. According to Mi Xiaodong's judgment just now, this woman has been dead for at least two days.
So today is May 5th, wasn't it between May 2nd and May 3rd two days ago?
Therefore, it is likely that this woman died on the night of May 2 or during the day on May 3.
At that time, according to their previous judgment, the drug traffickers at the foot of the mountain should not have noticed the abnormality on the mountain, and the murder in the Luoque House had not reached a climax.
Who could this woman really be? Mi Xiaodong searched in his mind for relatively possible answers.
A name inadvertently jumped into his brain - Jiang Xiaomei.
Yes, at that time, the only one who could come to the mountainside independently, or be moved between the mountainsides by someone, was Jiang Xiaomei.
If Jiang Xiaomei had already died when she stumbled and fell off the cliff, then it must have been someone on the mountain who moved her halfway up the mountain.
But according to the couple's account, on the night of May 2, everyone else on the mountain gathered, and even the most suspicious people could not have time to move.
The first of these people to break away was Fei Gu, but, but Fei Gu stayed on the first floor because of an illness, and lost his life soon after, did he really have the time and ability to move with Jiang Xiaomei's body between the mountainsides?
Then there was Buhe, who broke away from everyone in the middle of the night on May 2 out of fear, and this person had been secretly listed as a suspect in the previous murder at the hotel.
It is assumed that he took Jiang Xiaomei to the truck halfway up the mountain.
So what was his motivation for doing so? Why did he take Jiang Xiaomei's body in one fell swoop, the reason for this is not clear at all.
Moreover, from the night of May 2 to the early morning of May 3, it was raining incessantly in the sky, and Jiang Xiaomei soaked in the cold river water for a whole night.
The corpse should have been swollen and huge before it was clothed and moved, and after two days of wind and rain in the carriage, the degree of decomposition must have been very serious.
But the corpse of the woman now hanging on the carriage has also decomposed, and is beginning to show the corpse's gigantic corpse and a distinct vascular network of epidermis.
But it can't be what a night's immersion in water followed by two days of rain should look like.
And transporting the body along the riverbank halfway up the mountain, and then unknowingly returning to the house, is in itself a very time-consuming operation.
All the incidents in the Luoque House happened in just two days and two nights, and the murderer completed such a complicated murder incident, is it really possible to find time to carry Jiang Xiaomei's body?
Mi Xiaodong thought about it, and always felt that if Jiang Xiaomei had died when she stumbled on May 2, then the action of carrying Jiang Xiaomei's body would definitely be superfluous.
This person has lost her footing, why waste time to move her body around, even if the police find her there afterwards, it is easy to find out the cause of her death, it is only possible to contact Jiang Xinglong's head, it is impossible to contact the murderer's head at all.
So the remaining possibility is that Jiang Xiaomei didn't die at all, she ran halfway up the mountain by herself, and was discovered by someone with bad intentions outside the Luoque House.
Jiang Xiaomei may have spotted him in a panic, and the two men clashed halfway up the mountain, resulting in Jiang Xiaomei being killed and hiding in the bed of the truck.
If the truck is hidden between the mountainside by drug traffickers, it is impossible for ordinary people to find it easily, and the person who can correctly locate the truck and hide the body is not at all. It is likely that it is someone who is implicated in the criminals.
Further speculation is that the drug traffickers at the foot of the mountain may have discovered the anomaly on the mountain through this incident, and tried to get rid of the remaining people on the mountain to ensure that the drugs they left behind were not discovered by the police and their own safety.
