After the eleventh long holiday, it rained lightly in Jiangcheng for a week.

As soon as the rain stopped, the property in the Oasis community arranged for cleaning staff to clean up the community, and their main task was to clean up the fallen leaves. While sweeping the fallen leaves, the cleaning aunt noticed the stones placed by the artificial lake. It was a human-like stone, and from a certain angle, it looked a bit like a flying goddess.

The stones were brought in before the long holiday and placed on the shore of the lake for decoration. Because of the rain, there were no people by the lake, so no one took care of the stone.

There were a lot of willow leaves stuck to the stone, and the cleaning aunt found cracks on the surface of the stone when she was cleaning it with a broom. The crack was smashed with something, and combined with the small rocks scattered around the artificial lake, the cleaning aunt decided that it might be a prank by some child in the community.

These bear children, not to mention fast stones, even those poured reinforced concrete, they can also try their best to smash a hole. The cleaning aunt carefully cleaned up, planning to go to the property after tidying up. I didn't think that when I was halfway through the cleanup, those cracks actually shattered.

Something was revealed in the crack, and the cleaning aunt touched it, and it felt like a piece of cloth. Curious, she stood on tiptoe and took a closer look. There is indeed a piece of cloth in the middle of the crack, and judging by the texture of the fabric, it should be a women's top.

Who would stuff a woman's clothes in a stone?

Aunt Cleaning became more and more curious, she pinched it with her hand, and found that there was something in the fabric.

She couldn't help it, she picked the cracked stone down, and then she could see what was inside. Where is this piece of cloth, it is clearly a person, a person who is hidden in a stone.

The cleaning aunt screamed in fright, she immediately ran to inform the property, stumbled all the way, fell several times, and got mud all over her body. When the property manager learned of this, he immediately sent the staff of the order department to accompany the cleaning aunt to check, and after confirming that there was indeed something inside, he immediately called the police and arranged a simple cordon around the stone.

The first to arrive at the scene were the police from the police station, who used tools to pry down the cracks and slowly peel off the thing hidden in the stone. It was a woman's arm, embedded in the middle of the stone, and judging by the fabric found, and the degree of ossification of the woman's arm, the woman's death time was no more than half a year.

Strange stones are strange stones formed in nature, such as heart-shaped stones, moon-shaped stones, which are the most easily seen so-called strange stones, in addition, there are peony stones, rain flower stones, these are also strange stones, because they are all gifts from nature to human beings. There are also these large strange stones placed in the community, some like mountains, some like people, some like dragons, like monkeys, etc., but this kind of strange stones are usually encountered but not sought, and in ancient times, they were only placed in the homes of princes and nobles.

Many modern strange stones are artificial, and the simplest ones are artificially excavated, artificially carved, and made into imitation of nature. There are also profiteers who will use some special means to make some fake stones. In short, there is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that those profiteers can't think of.

The stone in front of me is an artificial stone, part of it is real, and the other part is glued by technical means. The severed arm that was found was hidden in this part of the synthesis.

When Liang Zhijie arrived at the scene, the severed arm hidden in the stone had been cleared, because there was only one arm, and the information that the forensic doctor was able to extract on it was very limited.

First of all, the deceased was a woman, between 30 and 40 years old, and this presumption is based on bone density. Human bones will change with age, at the stage of 30 to 40 years old, bone growth will be in a balanced state, bone density will reach the peak, but because the density of human bones will be affected by smoking, drinking, weight, sports and race and other factors after adulthood, there will be certain individual differences, combined with the clothes worn by the deceased, the forensic doctor believes that the age of the deceased can be lowered to 28 years old.

Secondly, the severed limbs of the deceased were cut off along with their clothes, and the dismemberment environment was very special, it should be a cold storage or a place with cold water.

Finally, in terms of finding the source of the body, the forensic doctor suggested that the source of the strange stone could be investigated. After all, most of the people who can hide the body in the stone are people related to the stone industry, especially those who have access to the stone.

Because there is only one arm, it is difficult to find the source of the body, and the police can only publish photos of the clothes worn by the deceased. Within two hours of the photo being posted, dozens of phone calls came in, some local, some out-of-town, all of whom insisted that they knew the person in the clothes.

Just when Liang Zhijie felt a headache, Wei Lai sent her a photo. In the photo, Wei Lai is wearing the same clothes and standing in front of the vanity mirror to take a selfie.

She sent a hello, and Wei Lai replied to her with a smiling emoji.

"Team Liang, this is a hit on the Internet, there are at least hundreds of thousands of sales on the whole network, I'm afraid it's not okay to rely on clothes to find the source of the corpse, we can't buy all these clothes, compare one fabric after another, right?"

Liang Zhijie opened the connection sent to her by Wei Lai, and it was indeed an Internet hit, and it was a hit from the previous year to this year.

Despite some headaches, Liang Zhijie still found some usable clues from those messy phone calls, and in these clues, there may be real victims.

Clue 1, Wang Xue, 34 years old, divorced, has a daughter living with her ex-husband. Wang Xue works in sales and travels a lot, but after a business trip in February, she disappeared. She was on a business trip to a southern city, and when she was packing, she also posted a circle of friends, which included the shadow of the clothes on the deceased's body. Wang Xue's family had traveled to the city where she was on a business trip to look for her, but found nothing, and they suspected that Wang Xue had suffered an accident. The family has called the police, but there are too many missing people every year, and as family members, they can only wait at home.

Clue 2, Li Man, 29 years old, unmarried, university teacher. Li Man is not from Jiangcheng, but she has a netizen from Jiangcheng, and the two made an appointment to meet in Jiangcheng during May Day. According to Li Man's booking information, she was on a train at half past six in the afternoon on May 1, and the train arrived in Jiangcheng at 8:16 p.m., which normally takes about ten minutes to leave the station.

Since Li Man was already an adult, her family did not pay much attention to her whereabouts, and when the school called her family to ask why Li Man did not go to school, they found out that Li Man was missing. The phone couldn't get through, and the social account stayed on the day she set off to Jiangcheng.

After receiving the report, the police contacted her netizen and found that it was a child who was not yet an adult. He originally planned to sneak to the train station to pick up Li Man at night, but his parents found him and locked him up at home. His mobile phone was also confiscated, it was stolen from his parents the next day, he sent a message to Li Man, Li Man did not reply, he thought Li Man was angry, and he traveled with his parents the next day.
