As soon as I stepped into Ma Tao's office, the criminal police sent by Ma Tao rushed back. Ma Tao slapped his hand and said that they were finally back. The detectives looked haggard, and as soon as they came in, we noticed the dark circles on their faces, and we knew at a glance that they hadn't slept well the night before.

Ma Tao saw that they looked like they were going to die or live, and scolded twice, and then the criminal policemen got up. A criminal policeman explained to Ma Tao that they were no wonder. When they arrived at Jiang Liang's village, it was raining heavily, and the roads in the village were very muddy, and it was already dark when they arrived at the village.

They knocked on several houses, and everyone was already asleep. Some of the villagers are very enthusiastic, but their homes are too small to have extra space for them to rest. In the end, a family took them to an empty house, and after careful questioning, they learned that the house was where Jiang Liang and his wife used to live.

The house has been uninhabited for too long, it is already very dilapidated, there is still rain leaking in some places, the smell of mold everywhere in the house, I borrowed two bedding from the villagers, and they barely slept there. They couldn't sleep all night because of the sound of the rain, and in the middle of the night the village dogs barked incessantly.

The criminal police said that they didn't say anything here, and we obviously felt that they had something to say. Ma Tao asked him to continue, those criminal policemen, you look at me, I look at you, under Ma Tao's repeated urging, finally a criminal policeman was willing to speak. He said that the villagers who sent them to Jiang Liang's house did not know that Jiang Yingcheng was dead, and everyone only knew that Jiang Liang gave birth to a good son, became a policeman, and ate state food.

This is a very glorious thing for a village. The villager thought they were Jiang Yingcheng's colleagues and told them a lot about Jiang Yingcheng's past. They lived in Jiang Yingcheng's house, and when they thought of the whole circle of wounds on Xiao Jiang's waist, they all felt that their scalps were numb.

The temperature in the village was lower than in the city, and it was raining again, and they shivered all night, so scared that they could not sleep. Ma Tao listened, slapped the table angrily, I asked Ma Tao not to get angry, it is important to do business. Honestly, I know what it's like to be at night in the village.

People who are not used to living in the village will indeed be a little frightened in such a simple and dark place, which is also because most of the villages are relatively superstitious, and there are many legends about wandering spirits and wild ghosts. The wound on Xiao Jiang's waist has been seen by many people, and the entire police station can be said to be known to everyone, they sleep in Jiang Yingcheng's house, no wonder they are afraid.

Ma Tao endured his anger and asked a few criminal policemen to say it well.

When it came to business, several criminal policemen also became serious. They told us that when they got up the next day, they went from house to house to investigate. After this investigation, they found out that not only the villagers who sent them to Jiang Liang's house last night did not know about Jiang Yingcheng's death, but the entire village did not even know about this incident.

Almost all the people in the village are surnamed Jiang, and there is a Jiang ancestral hall on the mountain, according to the customs of the village and everyone's concept, people should be buried in the ancestral grave when they die. Jiang Liang's father is also buried in the village, which is the most confusing place for the criminal police, according to reason, after Jiang Yingcheng dies, he should also be buried in the mountain behind the village.

When the absent-minded Xu Yi and Jiang Jun heard this, they finally lifted their spirits.

Ma Tao glanced at me, and he also felt that something was wrong, at that time, the cemetery was not popular, whether it was people in the village or in the city, everyone would bury the body in the grave of their hometown. Even if Jiang Liang really changed his concept and wanted to bury Jiang Yingcheng in the cemetery, it would not be impossible not to talk to so many distant relatives and neighbors in the village.

I thought about it for a moment and let the detective continue.

Ma Tao asked them to investigate whether Jiang Yingcheng had twin brothers, so the criminal police immediately reported the problem to us. Jiang Liang moved to the city when Jiang Yingcheng was about to enter middle school, so the villagers were no strangers to Jiang Yingcheng. According to everyone's feedback, Jiang Yingcheng has been very arrogant since he was a child, and often fights with children in the same village.

"Have you all asked clearly?" Ma Tao asked with a frown.

The criminal police replied: "Check it out, everyone said that Jiang Liang only had Jiang Yingcheng as a child." ”

Ma Tao: "Every family asked?" ”

The criminal police nodded: "I've asked everything." However, when the criminal policeman said this, another criminal policeman interjected, and under the reminder, the criminal policeman immediately changed his words. They said there was another family that they hadn't asked, but that family had been away from the village for decades.

There are more than 50 families living in the village, and they asked in detail, and compared the number of households before Jiang Liang moved to the city, they found that compared with before, there were two fewer people in the village. There are two fewer families, one is naturally Jiang Liang's family, and the other is the midwife in the village.

Ma Tao was stunned: "When did you move out?" ”

The criminal policeman thought about it and said a time, this time was the year Jiang Yingcheng was born. When Ma Tao heard this, he opened his mouth and scolded: "Don't you feel strange that you policemen are in vain?" ”

Ma Tao is right, whether it is from the time I moved out of the village, or from the profession of midwife, I have a faint feeling that something is wrong. I asked Ma Tao not to scold in a hurry, Ma Tao nodded angrily and handed over the situation to me. I asked the detectives if anyone had ever said how Jiang Yingcheng was born.

The detective immediately nodded and said that the people in the village were all delivered by the midwife.

"Where did the midwife move and what is her name?" I asked again.

The detective shook his head, saying that he hadn't asked clearly.

When Ma Tao heard this, there was another burst of anger, he pointed to the door and gave an order, asking these criminal police to investigate well, saying that if they didn't find out, they wouldn't have to come back.

There were only a few of us left in the office, and Ma Tao said that there must be something wrong with the midwife who left the village when Jiang Yingcheng was born. I didn't talk to me, and I won't know for sure until I find someone. Ma Tao took out a document from the table and handed it to me, and he said that this is the place where the entire Zhu City and the surrounding urban areas are qualified to sell arsenic, a chemical material.

I took a look, and there were dozens of chemical factories and chemical stores, but the addresses of these places were all crossed in red. Ma Tao explained that people from the police station had checked the real-name sales records in these places, and no private person had ever purchased such a product at all.

This highly toxic substance is controlled by the Pearl Market, so it is almost impossible for individuals to buy it in the regular market. Ma Tao said that illegal trade in chemicals is more difficult to find than illegal trade places for other commodities, and the police force has searched police stations but has not been able to find such underground markets and individuals.

"Some provinces and cities do not strictly supervise this highly toxic chemical, and if it is not found in Zhu City, I am afraid that the person who killed Sun Xiang will not have purchased it in Zhu City and this province." Ma Tao hung his head, if this is really the case, it will be a needle in a haystack to find it nationwide.

We have not found anyone suspicious, even if it is Xiao Jiang, we can only suspect that he had a snake deal with Sun Xiang, and there is no evidence that he is suspected of killing Sun Xiang. Sun Xiang's poisoning case seems to be at an impasse, and the people who went out to investigate Sun Xiang's wife have not brought good news.

Sun Xiang's neighbors were not familiar with Sun Xiang's wife, and her household registration was registered in Sun Xiang's home, and it was not very easy to find Sun Xiang's wife's original home address due to technical reasons.

I thought about it for a long time before I asked Ma Tao to check it out from some chemical research institutes. Since the seller can't find any suspicious records, let's start with the establishments that are qualified to buy the chemical and see if we can find anything. Ma Tao woke up like a dream, he patted his brain, and said why he didn't think of it.

In the entire Pearl City, there are not many research institutions and units that dare to buy this chemical in small quantities, so Ma Tao hurriedly called people in and asked them to start from this aspect to investigate. After explaining everything, someone came in to report the situation. Ma Tao asked Xiao Jiang to give medicine to his wound according to my request, but Xiao Jiang refused, and he was so crazy that almost no one dared to approach him anymore.

"Is this guy going to die?" Ma Tao cursed fiercely, he paced two steps, and finally decided to send Xiao Jiang to the hospital, so that he could also find out what was going on with the wound on Xiao Jiang's waist.
