The female corpse was carefully lowered from the small bridge by several criminal policemen and carried to the gazebo for resting. After the police completed the evidence collection and investigation, they learned from Li Bing and others about the process of finding the female corpse.

Jiang Wei and Ergou's faces turned pale, and their bodies trembled incessantly. After the criminal police asked them to identify the body and confirmed that it was Xiao Li, a staff member in the villa, they couldn't help but be suspicious when they saw their nervous and scared looks.

The forensic doctor preliminarily determined that Xiao Li had died of suffocation by hanging, and there were no other injuries on his body. What is clearly confirmed is that Xiao Li died by homicide rather than suicide.

Although the bridge is only three or four meters long, it uses a cable-stayed structure in an ingenious way. At both ends of the bridge, two thick timbers are nailed into the ground as piers, each wood is fixed diagonally with a steel cable, and above the bridge deck, the two logs on the other bank are connected by steel cables.

Xiao Li's body was also hung from her throat by a thin steel cable, which cut open the skin of her throat but did not cut her throat. The steel cable that strangled her throat rested on the two thick steel cables that crossed the bridge deck, the ends obviously twisted together with a tool like a vice.

The bridge deck is paved with wooden planks, and when people stand on it, the small bridge swayes. Timid people are timid when they look at the deep stream below, but everyone can see that in fact, this small bridge is quite strong and safe, and people who go to the green and dig bamboo shoots generally like to deliberately dangle a few times on the small bridge in search of an alternative thrill.

The high-heeled crystal sandals on the feet of the female corpse were nearly a foot and a half away from the bridge deck, and the steel cable that strangled her throat was nearly two meters high.

Obviously, if Xiao Li committed suicide, it would never be possible to walk to this small bridge alone in the dead of night and then calmly twist the tightrope and then choose to hang himself. Regardless of whether she has this motive or not, the height of this steel cable, without external force to help, Xiao Li cannot do it alone.

There is no doubt that Xiao Li died by him. All the people in the villa were told by the police that they were suspected of murder and were not allowed to leave the villa until the case was solved.

Due to Jiang Wei and Ergou's unusually frightened expressions, the criminal police felt that the two of them were the most suspicious, so they launched a brief interrogation of the two on the edge of the pavilion.

Jiang Wei and Ergou flatly denied it, stammering and telling the detectives that they were particularly scared because they thought that it was not a human but a ghost who killed Xiao Li.

Of course, the police couldn't believe what they said, and while they were still interrogating, Jiang Wei suddenly said: "Officer, I'm going to call the county deputy county magistrate Wang." Did you handle the case like that? Are you treating me as a suspect? Who am I, Jiang Wei, you little criminal policeman, I will dial a phone number, and I will let you take off this police uniform tomorrow! ”

Seeing the tense atmosphere at the scene, a deputy captain of the criminal police who led the team hurriedly came to ask what was going on. He knew in his heart that Jiang Wei was not intimidating, and with his strength, influence in the local area, and his network, what Jiang Wei said was by no means an empty word of intimidation.

After the deputy captain of the criminal police asked the reason, he snorted and broke away from the criminal policeman who was reprimanded by Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei was still venting his grievances dissatisfiedly, and said angrily: "Team Zhang, for your sake, I won't bother with this muddy boy." My heart is not very good, and the atmosphere here is so scared that I am almost out of breath. Ergou, take me back to the villa to rest! ”

Ergou hurriedly helped Jiang Wei and turned around and walked towards the villa. Team Zhang looked helplessly at the two who were slowly leaving, and suddenly heard Ergou turn around and say, "Team Zhang, I remember, you should send a criminal policeman to go back to the villa with us." Since the forensic doctors have determined that the time of Xiao Li's death is about a child's hour, then you just need to come and see where we live, there is a surveillance at the gate where we only enter and exit, and you can call up the video, and you will know that Mr. Jiang and I did not leave the villa at all last night. ”

Team Zhang was stunned for a while, and then called a criminal policeman to follow the two of them.

Team Zhang stared at Li Bing and his party, and began to interrogate the five of them how they appeared in this villa and what they did last night.

Li Bing said calmly: "Team Zhang, do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" ”

Team Zhang shook his head, and Li Bing continued: "Then just now Jiang Wei and Ergou said that they were ghosts who killed Xiao Li, so naturally you don't believe it, right?" I suspect that this is someone using the theory of ghosts and gods to kill people and take revenge. ”

Team Zhang said suspiciously: "What did you say?" Revenge? ”

Li Bing said: "Team Zhang, I don't know if you were already in the criminal police team here more than five years ago. Five years ago, this bamboo forest garden also reported the crime. ”

Team Zhang said in surprise: "Li Bing, how do you know?" That's right, five years ago, I was just an ordinary criminal policeman, and it was I who answered the call to the police, a girl named Shi Lin disappeared. Almost at the same time, Shanzhuang and Shi Lin's parents reported the crime, and both sides insisted on their own words. Shi Lin's parents insisted that their daughter disappeared after coming to the villa, and the villa showed a lot of information to prove that the girl named Shi Lin had never arrived. ”

Li Bing nodded and said, "Team Zhang, five years have passed since this mysterious disappearance case was an unsolved case. You probably wouldn't have thought that the mystery of this unsolved case is about to be revealed, and these two cases can be dealt with together, Shi Lin's disappearance led to Xiao Li's killing last night! ”

Team Zhang exclaimed: "Are you saying that Shi Lin has a grudge against Xiao Li, and after five years of disappearance, she returned here and killed Xiao Li to avenge her personal vendetta?" ”

Li Bing shook his head and said, "Team Zhang, it's not like this. Think about it, even if Shi Lin wanted to kill Xiao Li, she was a weak woman, could she easily strangle Xiao Li to death on this small bridge? Not to mention women, even ordinary adult men, it is estimated that it is difficult to do it. ”

Team Zhang looked at Li Bing suspiciously for a while and said, "Then what do you mean?" One will say that Shi Lin's disappearance and Xiao Li's death can be combined, and the other will say that it was not Shi Lin who killed Xiao Li, how can this be explained? ”

Li Bing said unhurriedly: "Team Zhang, how can I tell you that Shi Lin was not missing five years ago, but was killed by someone, can you believe it?" ”

Team Zhang's eyes widened, barely believing his ears, and he said angrily, "Who are you?" Are you saying this to tell me that it is Shi Lin's ghost who is killing people? It's ridiculous, you should be held legally responsible for what you said! ”

Li Bingzheng said: "Team Zhang, I'm not talking nonsense, you allow me to tell you what happened in detail." Before that, I want to make a phone call, is it okay? Because the person on the phone will tell you what a few of us are here for! ”

Team Zhang nodded and agreed to Li Bing's call on the spot. Li Bing quickly dialed Yu Chen's mobile phone, and when he told Yu Chen everything that happened here, Yu Chen was speechless on the other end of the phone for a while.

From Yu Chen's choked voice, Li Bing felt that although Yu Chen was mentally prepared, he was still in pain when he got the exact news that Shi Lin had already died.

On the other end of the phone, Yu Chen calmed down for a while and asked Li Bing to hand over the phone to Team Zhang.
