We got a few thick sticks from all around, and little by little we dug up the small dirt slope in front of us. The soil layer was indeed turned over, so we didn't have much effort, but we were still sweating profusely, and it took more than ten minutes for us to finally level the small dirt slope.

There was nothing in the dirt slope, the criminal police wiped the sweat on his head with his sleeve, asked me why there was nothing, I said it should be at the bottom, so we dug down again, sure enough, we dug for a while, and finally found a pit, this pit was dug in advance.

The pit had only revealed a corner, and the detective was already frightened, and he tried to see what was inside, but the pit was too small and too dark inside, and he couldn't succeed. He swallowed and slowly began digging again. I was not idle, and I quickened the movements of my hands.

The pit was dug bigger and bigger, and there was less and less dirt inside.

The detective's breathing was getting louder and louder, and he said that he felt cold even in the sun, and I thanked him for looking at the trembling lips of the detective. Although he was afraid, he persevered in the end, and if my guess was correct, what was lying in the grave was what I thought, and there was an investigator here, and the evidence we found was more legally valid.

Eventually, I felt the sticks in our hands poke something unusual except dirt, and the policeman sensed something, and he threw the stick aside and begged me that he had helped me so much, and that I would do the rest myself. No longer reluctant, I nodded and continued with my hand movements.

Xu Yi stood on the side, staring nervously at the land in front of us, while the criminal policeman sat slumped to the side, chanting "Amitabha" in his mouth. The mass grave was next to a forest, and the sound of unknown insects could be heard in the forest. Soon, I had cut away most of the sand in the pit that could be cut with sticks, revealing a pair of feet, which had not yet rotted, but shrunk slightly, not like a man who had been dead for decades.

The criminal police also stood up, influenced by the villagers and Sun Xiang, perhaps he was afraid to see the bones of people who died unjustly more than thirty years ago, but the scene in front of him made him realize something. Holding back his fear, he asked, "Another murder." ”

Then, a whole corpse was revealed, two to be exact, one of which was not yet decomposing and was pressing on top of the other, and the lower one was decomposed. The previous corpse was face down, and I had no way of seeing their faces, except for their body shape and hair, I could identify both bodies as female.

"What's going on!" The criminal police finally became solemn, he immediately made a call to Ma Tao, after explaining the situation, Ma Tao seemed to be about to bring someone over, I thought about it, and asked the criminal police to hand over the phone to me. After Ma Tao heard that it was me, he said that he would come over soon, and then he would talk about it later.

"Captain Ma, wait." Before Ma Tao hung up the phone, I stopped him. I made a request to him, and I told him not to bring too many people with him, and to come to this place on foot all over the forest when he got to the entrance of the village. Ma Tao asked me why, and I told him that this case had something to do with Qian Er's death and also had something to do with Sun Xiang.

Qian Er's case has not yet been transferred to the procuratorate for prosecution, so I asked Ma Tao to hold it for me and told him that the case could be solved today.

The situation was urgent, Ma Tao hesitated for a while and then agreed, he said that he would immediately send the police, and sent two criminal policemen to watch Sun Xiang without startling the snake.

We waited for a long time, and finally, seven or eight people came through the woods, led by Ma Tao, and behind him there were several people dressed as forensic doctors. They quickly found our location, and Ma Tao also frowned when he saw the two bodies in the grave. After sealing off the scene, Ma Tao asked everyone to extract evidence first, and then transfer the two bodies.

The process was not so fast, Ma Tao pulled me aside and asked if what I had just said was true. I nodded and told others that it was not Jiang Jun who killed it, but Sun Xiang. Ma Tao was shocked when he heard this, he glanced at the tomb and asked, "I'm not talking about those two people, I'm talking about Qian Er!" ”

Ma Tao became anxious, he said that he resisted the pressure, and if I could not find evidence to overthrow Jiang Jun that he was not the murderer, he would be in trouble.

I told Ma Tao not to worry, and replied, "I'm talking about the murderer of Qian Er." ”

Ma Tao was stunned: "You mean Sun Xiang in the village?" ”

I nodded, "Yes." ”

"Killed with your own hands?"

"Yes."

Hearing this, Ma Tao immediately denied it, he said that Sun Xiang had no time to commit the crime at all, he had an alibi, if the person was killed by Sun Xiang, then the whole village was lying for Sun Xiang, this is too terrifying, the whole village is an accomplice or obstructing official business, this case is too difficult to handle.

"The person was killed by Sun Xiang, and the villagers didn't lie...... "Before I finished speaking, the personnel who identified the body at the scene called us, and the body had been carried out of the pit. Ma Tao and I immediately walked over, and when we saw the two corpses, we were all shocked.

Two corpses, one was already rotting and stinking, and the other was just about to decompose. They were all women, the one without decay was easily recognizable, probably a girl in her twenties, while the other was unrecognizable, and could only be inferred to be in her forties based on the style of clothes she was wearing.

The most surprising thing was that the eyeballs of both corpses were missing, but their eye sockets were not bleeding, and no blood or other wounds were found on their bodies. Since there were no wounds, the forensic doctor speculated that he probably died of asphyxiation, so I thought about it and asked them to bring the two bodies back to the forensic department first, make a preliminary autopsy report as quickly as possible, and send them back.

Ma Tao immediately did as I said, Ma Tao left three criminal policemen, and he didn't go back himself.

"Professor Li, looking at your appearance, you seem to know the news of these two corpses?" Ma Tao asked.

I nodded: "According to my speculation, one of these two bodies is Sun Xiang's wife, and the other is Sun Xiang's daughter. ”

Ma Tao thought carefully for a long time and replied: "According to the people in the village, Sun Xiang's wife and daughter disappeared a year ago, this is known to everyone, how could it be ......?"

"On the night Sun Xiang's wife and daughter disappeared, no one saw them disappear with their own eyes, and everything that happened, including going out to find them, was said by Sun Xiang." When I said this, Ma Tao understood a little.

I took everyone out of the mass grave, Ma Tao asked me where I was going, and I said that many things were just my speculation, and I needed to confirm further. Ma Tao brought me the appraisal report of those new sacks, and I walked all the way, looking at the contents all the way. Ma Tao had already told me the appraisal results, and after I reconfirmed, I put away the appraisal report.

The sacks, along with the appraisal report, will be very important evidence. The appraisal report was given by another appraisal agency in Zhushi, and due to its scientific and authoritative nature, the appraisal report given by the agency was sufficient to be used as evidence in litigation.

Ma Tao had already asked the original criminal police and two other criminal police officers to go to Sun Xiang's house to watch him, and they did not startle the snake, but circled around Sun Xiang's house on the grounds of conducting a follow-up investigation of the case. At first, Ma Tao didn't know what my purpose was, but after I entered each house, I asked exactly the same questions, and Ma Tao finally reacted a little.

I asked most of the villages, and everyone's answers were similar, and I told Ma Tao that the questions I asked and the villagers' answers were very important evidence, and they needed to be recorded truthfully. There is also a situation about the layout of the villagers' homes, which the criminal police also recorded one by one. Our visit lasted for a long time, and it was not until it got dark that we walked into the last house except for Sun Xiang.

After dark, every house lit up the lamp, and Xu Yi completely understood what I meant, and she smiled and asked me how I came up with it. I told her that many of the things that don't make sense are actually related, and that with a little clue, many other mysteries can be solved.

When I asked the last family, he replied the same. At this moment, the person who brought the body back called Ma Tao and said that the preliminary autopsy report had come out and that they would arrive in the village in about an hour.

The person was killed by Sun Xiang, and the villagers did not lie for Sun Xiang, we walked to Sun Xiang's house, it was time to solve the case......
