Chapter 88: 4-7 Dogs barking on the national highway

Two police cars stopped on the side of the national highway, and Coco got out of the car and walked down the overgrown slope as indicated by the other officers who had arrived at the scene first.

There was a faint barking of dogs, full of restlessness and suppression. Coco walked all the way down the slope, and the first thing he saw was the precinct police officer who arrived at the scene first, talking to a man in sportswear, the man was holding a rather large dog, Coco vaguely remembered that this snow-white dog seemed to be a dog breed known for its docility, but at this time it was irritated at the feet of the owner and kept trying to break free from the chain and run away.

Although this large grass is a little desolate, it is close to the national highway where people come and go, and the four or five cars with flashing red and blue police lights parked on the road have already attracted the masses in the nearby towns, and even the national highway is jammed with private cars that are curious and stop watching.

On the big grass, the police officers were exchanging information with each other, but as if agreed, no one approached the thing covered by the white cloth in the middle, so Coco saw such a strange situation, with the white cloth as the center, there was no one within a radius of five meters, but five meters away there was a circle of police officers, a warning circle, and several circles of people watching the crowd on the periphery.

Da Ling followed behind Coco, he also noticed this strange situation, and his already heavy heart couldn't raise his head, he beckoned to Bai Ling behind him, and asked him to go directly to the eyewitness who was leading the big dog, if Bai Ling saw the things under the white cloth, he didn't know what to vomit into.

Coco squatted in front of the white cloth, took out the disinfectant gloves from her pocket, put them on, and gently lifted the white cloth covering the grass.

The first thing that caught her eye was a pair of naked, blue little feet, she paused for a moment before lifting the white cloth whole, and there seemed to be some startling sound from the crowd of onlookers not far away, but Coco didn't notice it, and the person in front of her attracted all her attention at this moment.

The small body, wearing a pure white shroud, the corners of the clothes are embroidered with flowing child and crane patterns, the calm face seems to be just asleep, and there is a dinosaur doll made of flannel in the right hand, the immature lips are wrinkled because of dehydration after death, Coco touches the corner of the child's mouth, and a little trace of white foam appears on the glove.

When Da Xuan approached, he was also frightened by this special victim, and he couldn't help but ask, "How old is the child?" ”

"No more than 18 months from the skull morphology and teeth." Coco replied, but the movement of his hand did not stop for a moment.

"Coco, what are you doing with his hands and thighs?" Da Zhen asked.

Coco didn't answer, his hands pinched the child's upper arm for a while, and then pinched his thigh, and both places looked extremely stiff.

After a while, Da Xuan couldn't help but ask again, "...... Frozen to death? ”

After waiting for a long time, Coco stopped what she was doing, she gently put the white cloth back on, sighed, and stood up straight.

"There are traces of white foam at the corners of the mouth, obvious spasms of the biceps brachii of the upper arm and quadriceps of the thigh...... It should be acute pesticide poisoning, and the specific pesticide should be tested back. ”

"Didn't freeze to death? That foot is green like that......"

Coco shook her head, "Spring is cold in the morning and evening, the child is thrown here for at least half the night, the temperature is low, the blood clots after death, and it is normal for the feet to be blue......" Speaking of this, Coco was stunned again, and Da Xuan saw that she didn't say anything, so he stared at her.

"Da Xuan...... This is murder," Coco looked into the distance, but the words came to the ears of the people around him in a low voice, "The child's feet are very clean, he was carried here after death, someone poisoned him, and when he lost his breath, wiped the traces of vomit on his mouth and the excrement of his body, put on the prepared white shroud, and put it down here, waiting to be found by people coming and going on the national highway......"

"Sounds like a lot of hatred." Da Xuan looked at the crowd of onlookers not far away, "Killing children is to torture adults." ”

——————————

Bai Ling greeted her colleague and took out a small notepad while starting a conversation with the man in front of her.

"Hello, I'm Bai Ling from the Municipal Criminal Police Team, I know you may have already told me about the situation before, but could you please tell me again, how did you find the body?"

The man grabbed the restless big dog under his feet with one hand, and a pair of heroic eyebrows couldn't help frowning, "I took Abo, it's my dog out for a walk, it's morning...... Less than 7 o'clock, along this national highway," the man pointed in the direction of the south side of the national highway, "there is my little cottage, jogging from there, and then when I got here, Abo began to become strange, at first he suddenly refused to go, and was stunned, and then I pulled it here, and suddenly I began to bark wildly, and like a madman, I broke free from my chain and rushed downhill, and I followed him, and saw him rushing towards the ...... That one...... The child, kept barking, but he didn't dare to approach, and then I called the police with my mobile phone......"

Bai Ling glanced at Abo at his feet, which made it stand still, its eyes looking at the place where Da Xuan and Coco were in the distance, and its tail was sluggish and calm, motionless.

"When you were following your dog down the slope, did you see anyone around? Or is there a car parked on the national highway? ”

The man thought for a while and shook his head, "Early in the morning, we jogged all the way and didn't see anyone, there were cars, but they were all the kind that drove from the national highway at high speed, and I can't remember what kind of car it was, but when I got down the grass, there must have been no one around, so ...... Panic. ”

Before Bai Ling left, he wanted to touch the big white dog to show his friendliness, but he didn't expect Abo to grin with a fierce face, and the owner stopped it sharply, "I'm sorry, Abo is usually not like this, I guess it's because I saw that ...... Kids, he usually likes to play with kids......"

Bai Ling nodded, turned around and walked in the direction where the captain was.

Da Ling commanded Wang Aiguo, who was in charge of the camera, to shoot the appearance of the scene, the grass marks on the ground, the distance from the national highway, etc., into the video, Bai Ling walked forward and whispered a few words in his ear, he nodded slightly, and the two turned to look at the forensic doctor together.

Coco was crouching in front of the child, his young face as if he was asleep. It's not that the child's body has not been handled, but compared to adults, the murder of a child of this size is indeed very rare, most of the children's deaths are accidents, or due to the negligence of their parents, look at the scene in front of you, the child who is not as long as his arm is put on a pure white shroud, placed on the vast grass of this world, Coco faintly perceives a dark hatred, wrapped around the pure white face.

"Coco, the corpse truck has arrived." The voice of the big reel rang in my ears.

Two blue-clad workers walked over with body bags, and Coco waved at them, "The size of the body bag is not suitable for such a young person." ”

The staff looked at each other and handed Coco a piece of blue cloth that usually covered the corpse.

Coco thought for a moment, took the blue cloth, and wrapped the child on the ground lightly, refusing the help of the corpse carrier.

The wrapped child was only a little bigger than a hot water bottle, and Coco grabbed her hands from under him, picked up the whole child, and slowly walked towards the corpse truck.

Although the whole body was wrapped in a blue cloth, Coco's action of holding the child was constantly reminding the people around him, the young and innocent victim in front of him, walked slowly all the way, and the surrounding forensic department staff, police, and onlookers all quieted down instantly, only the big white dog called Abo suddenly looked up to the sky and howled, and the sad wail cut through both sides of the empty national highway, and even the owner stroked its head could not make him quiet.

Step by step, step on the green weeds under her feet, imagining that at a certain moment before, the murderer also held the child's stiff body in his hands and put it on the grass, Coco had an indescribable emotion in her heart, she held the child in her arms and whispered faintly, "No matter what the reason, the person who uses you to vent his hatred is unforgivable." ”
