Chapter 036: Patchwork Puppets
Except for some shrinkage, the corpse did not decompose at all, which shows that the corpse must have been stored in a very low temperature place for so many days of disappearance, not a cold room, and at least a temperature condition such as a morgue. I rubbed my temples habitually, there were so many things that my thoughts became a little ridiculous.
In the police station, apart from the morgue, there is no place where the body can be stored for so many days and not for everyone to find out. Zhao Da was sullen and waved his hand at everyone, "Forget it, it's not a bad thing that the corpse is back, maybe some clues can be rediscovered." From now on, cheer me up, if this happens again, I'll have to peel you off! ”
Everyone nodded in unison, and after Zhao Da ordered the people from the identification department to immediately re-identify the body, he sent everyone out. When all the people were gone, Zhao Dacai let out a long sigh. The monitoring room was very stuffy, even if the doors and windows were wide open, it was useless, and after only a while, all my shirts were sticky to my body.
Zhao Da was also sweating, he was in a very bad mood, and cursed fiercely: "Damn, why is it so hot!" Zhao Da stood up and strode outside. There are several computers in the monitoring room, these computers are on for a long time, and behind the computers, there is a very large electrical box, such a high temperature comes from these electrical boxes.
I also felt that this room was a little too stuffy, so I immediately followed Zhao Da out of the monitoring room. Zhao Dazheng was standing at the door smoking, and when he saw me coming out, he handed me one. Compared to the monitoring room, it was much cooler outside, and after taking a few deep puffs of cigarettes, Zhao Da asked me what I should do next.
Zhao Da said that he was completely dizzy, there were too many clues, too many mysteries, and he had never encountered such a tricky and strange case. Don't say it's Zhao Da, even I haven't encountered such a headache case. I was able to find clues in the unsolved cases I had experienced before, and finally sorted out the clues to solve the case, but this time, my head didn't work, and after so much time, I still couldn't reasonably connect all the events.
"Let's find a way to find Xiong Wancheng first, he is the most suspicious." After extinguishing the cigarette, I said to Zhao Da.
Zhao Da nodded and said that he would immediately issue a wanted warrant and contact his superiors to conduct a nationwide search for Xiong Wancheng. Zhao Da took me into the office and asked Lao Zhang to find a way to call up Xiong Wancheng's account information. Fortunately, Xiong Wancheng is a native of G City, and after looking for a while, Xiong Wancheng's identity information was called up.
The police force has left photos of residents, and I saw Xiong Wancheng's photo on my identity information. In the photo, he is not dressed as a Taoist priest, but has short hair that is almost bald. There is nothing special about his appearance, except that the cracked lip marks on his lips are very noticeable.
According to the year of Xiong Wancheng's birth, he is 41 years old this year, and the household registration information does not show that he has any relatives. Zhao Da immediately issued a wanted warrant in accordance with the procedure. After everything was over, Zhao Da lifted Erlang's legs and smoked again. Zhao Da put the two things he brought out from the identification department on the table, and the rice paper and the small puppet were being packed in the identification bag.
Xiao Nan still sat on the side very obediently, a girl who was only seven or eight years old, she had been bored in the police station for so long, she was not noisy or noisy, she looked well-behaved, and Zhao Da kept praising Xiao Nan. Lao Zhang was very happy when he heard this, and chatted with Zhao Da on the side. I put on my gloves again and began to piece together the scattered puppets.
Xiong Wancheng left those words on the rice paper, saying that only people in the Taoist sect could solve the case, and dared to leave his lip prints, which was clearly a provocation to the public security system, and this approach was the same as the man on the phone, so they were probably the same person.
Xiong Wancheng will not leave unnecessary things on the scene, this little puppet must have its role, or hide some valuable information. Easily, I pieced together the scattered limbs of the puppet one by one onto the carved body of the puppet.
As before, my heart was beating out of rhythm and I felt a tightness in my chest, as if something was going to happen. I was so engrossed that I didn't even notice when Xiao Nan came to my side, and when the corner of my eye glanced at Xiao Nan's pale face, my heart sank, and I was startled by her.
Xiao Nan was staring at the little puppet on the table, she was not as tall as the table, so she had to stand on tiptoe to see it. She didn't speak, just looked at the little puppet. I took a few deep breaths, perhaps under the influence of Zhao Da, and even I began to be startled.
Zhao Da and Lao Zhang were chatting, and they also found Xiao Nan standing next to me in a daze. Lao Zhang hurriedly ran over, picked up Xiao Nan and put it aside, and secretly whispered something in Xiao Nan's ear. I think Lao Zhang and Xiao Nan are a little strange, they have whispered more than once.
"Lao Zhang, what's wrong?" I asked.
Lao Zhang stood up and laughed a few times: "It's okay, I'm afraid that the child will quarrel with you at work." ”
Lao Zhang said this, and I didn't want to ask much, but at this time, Xiao Nan suddenly spoke, she pointed to the little puppet on the table, and said to me: "Uncle, I have seen this little puppet!" Xiao Nan's voice was full of childishness, and when she said this, Zhao Da, who was cross-legged, stood up suddenly.
"What did you say?" Zhao Da's voice was very loud, and Xiao Nan subconsciously hid behind Lao Zhang. Zhao Da scratched his head a little embarrassedly and apologized to Lao Zhang: "Lao Zhang, I'm sorry, I'm too excited, I scared the child." ”
Lao Zhang was not angry, he patted Xiao Nan's head and asked Xiao Nan if he was lying, and Xiao Nan said no. Lao Zhang was a little nervous now, and he told us that Xiao Nan never lied, so he immediately asked Xiao Nan for details. Under Lao Zhang's questioning, Xiao Nan finally continued to speak, but these words made Zhao Da and Lao Zhang's faces turn blue again, and they took several breaths of cool air.
Xiao Nan said that the aunt who crawled out of her stomach was holding this little puppet in her hand. Zhao Da's lips trembled, if it wasn't for Xiao Nan to talk about this matter again, everyone would almost forget Xiao Nan's strange behavior in Lao Zhang's house that day. Zhao Da looked at Xiao Nan and took two steps back to me.
Lao Zhang saw that Zhao Da was so afraid of Xiao Nan, so he picked up Xiao Nan and sat aside angrily without speaking. Zhao Da pulled the corner of my clothes and whispered to me what to do. I didn't pay attention to Zhao Da because I thought of something very important. On the balcony of Lao Zhang's house that day, the red-clothed figure I saw was very tall and had broad shoulders.
Aside from the red dress and high heels on the man, he didn't look like a woman at all. I looked at the cracked lip prints on the rice paper, which were printed with lipstick, a Taoist priest with a woman's thing, which immediately made me associate Xiong Wancheng with the red figure. and when Sun Hui was at his house, the red figure wearing high heels, what they had in common was that they were very fast.
Because of the difference in physical fitness, most women's speed will not be faster than men's, if the red-clothed figure is Xiong Wancheng, he can escape from our sight so easily, but it has become a little more reasonable. I looked at Xiao Nan sitting in Lao Zhang's arms, still the same as the previous narrative, Xiao Nan was not afraid at all, and he was very calm, not at all like the reaction of a seven or eight-year-old child.
Xiao Nan may have really seen Xiong Wancheng's little puppet at the scene, but for some intentional or unconscious reason, she said that the person crawled out of her stomach.
"Professor Li?" Zhao Da saw that I was pondering again and again, and called me. I came back to my senses and asked Zhao Da to find a way to catch Xiong Wancheng, according to my analysis, the possibility that Xiong Wancheng is the murderer is even greater. But I still didn't say it to death, Zhao Da still trusts me very much, if I say that I am basically sure that Xiong Wancheng is the murderer, he will definitely not investigate other clues.
The little puppets have all been put together by me, and this puppet is indeed very similar to the one found in Shen Nuo's room. At this time, the phone in Zhao Da's office rang. After Zhao Da took the phone, the more he listened, the more his face sank, and finally, after he said yes helplessly, he pressed the microphone on the landline.
"Fuck! The superiors won't let us check Shen Nuo! Zhao Da cursed a few times, and Zhao Da's words also surprised me slightly. The superiors would not agree to communicate with the procuratorate and approve the arrest of Shen Nuo, which I had guessed a long time ago, but they refused to even give Shen Nuo's detailed information, and even did not let Zhao Da investigate, which was beyond my understanding.
Zhao Da angrily lit a cigarette again and spit out a few puffs of smoke rings. Zhao Da said that his superiors didn't even have a reason to convince him, and ordered that they were not allowed to investigate, let Shen Nuo be reinstated, and also said that something happened and Zhao Da was not responsible. Zhao Da was very depressed, but he couldn't disobey the orders of his superiors, so he had to give an order to let someone inform Shen Nuo.
This reminds me of what Captain Zhang from City B said to me a few years ago that the 330 case will be investigated. Not long after the 330 case, Captain Zhang was transferred, and I don't know exactly where he was transferred. Xu Tong is now the captain of the police force in City B, and I called him when the 330 bus was transferred from City G.
In the end, Zhao Da seemed to have figured it out, he didn't have to be responsible for what happened, and he naturally stopped asking for his own troubles, he said that Shen Nuo's backstage was really not small, and it seemed that he should not provoke her again in the future.
After working for so long, the ghost in the police station still hasn't been found. Shen Nuo may not be an internal ghost, and the superiors dare to protect her like this, naturally they have their reasons. I was a little relieved of my mother, so I decided to go back first, and took a look at the small puppets on the table, and just as I was about to go back, my mother ran in through the door.
"Xu Yi is back!"
