Chapter 108: The Grave
"I didn't pay attention when I was in the woods...... It was too far away from the door of the Internet café for me to see. ”
Mu Guoqing was stunned, sweat flowed into his eyes along the corners of his forehead, and he couldn't open his eyes for a long time.
"But I remember he had a big black backpack, and I heard the engine roar as I was leaving, and he was probably driving a motorcycle."
"I'll arrange for a staff member to come in in a while, and you try to remember what that man looks like, and remember as much as you want, okay?"
Shi Chong smiled and handed him two tissues, although he was a little disappointed, but fortunately he didn't get nothing.
"No problem, I will cooperate."
Mu Guoqing took the tissue and nodded again and again.
……
Jinghe City Public Security Bureau. Joint Office.
"Mu Guoqing said that the man he saw that day threw garbage into the drainage canal, so we collected and sampled the debris in the drainage canal."
Shi Chong pasted the existing clues on the whiteboard one by one.
Among them, the Jinghe City police extracted the DNA of the deceased and the fingerprint samples of the murderer from two discarded disposable gloves.
This confirmed that the suspicious man Mu Guoqing saw that day was likely to be the murderer.
"This is a portrait drawn according to Mu Guoqing's confession, and everyone pays attention to the men who meet the appearance when they are patrolling. Especially people on motorcycles with black travel bags on their backs. ”
Shi Chong recounted the suspect's height, appearance and personality traits summed up.
Mu Guoqing's alibi has been confirmed, and the suspicion of coordinated crime has been ruled out for the time being.
When Lin Zihan asked, the reason why he ran away was because Mu Guoqing was suspected of falsifying the company's accounts for a long time, and the amount of tax evasion was huge, so he was a thief.
"The new loot was taken away by us, and the murderer must be unwilling. In addition to continuing to commit crimes, it is likely that he will also return to the place where the body was hidden in the past to find solace. ”
Shi Chong took out five pins of different colors and pasted them on the map of the Sunset Forest.
"These five areas are suspected to be the places where the Sunset Forest killers dumped their bodies. After a while, we went out in five teams to make rounds, paying special attention to hiding tracks and notifying each other of any news. ”
After learning about Zhu Jiangjiang's harvest, Shi Chong immediately asked Lan Bo to make a numerical model based on the existing data, using statistics and probability, to screen out the location where the murderer's body was most likely to hide in the Sunset Forest.
"Dr. Ye and Lin Zihan are in a group, and the others are in a group each. Each group will have two colleagues from Jinghe City to help, and everyone will work separately. Shi Chong said.
Sunset Forest. Southwest corner.
In the evening, the forest is not as vibrant as it is during the day, with birds chirping and wild animals singing, and the forest becoming quiet and secluded.
One of the Jinghe police led the search dog in front, one person in the back, and Zhu Jiangjiang was arranged in the middle.
The area of the forest is too large, and although Blue Wave has marked out suspicious areas, it took a lot of time just to get to the edge of the area.
"Brother Yang, wait, there seems to be a path here."
Zhu Jiangjiang suddenly stopped Lao Yang, who was walking in front, and swept the flashlight to the side.
The low bushes break off in the middle, and when you look closer, the broken branches are sunk in the fallen leaves, obvious signs of being trampled on repeatedly over a long period of time.
"Tangyuan, go this way."
Lao Yang shouted, and the three of them and one dog changed directions together.
Tang Yuan is a three-year-old black Labrador with a strong sense of responsibility, constantly twitching his nose all the way, carefully analyzing the smell wafting in the air.
The branches and leaves on the path have been cleared several times, and it is still easy to walk.
But because the direction was downhill, several people had to be cautious and slowed down repeatedly.
Suddenly, Tang Yuan quickened his pace, until finally he even ran.
"Woohoo!"
"Tangyuan should have been discovered." Lao Yang said.
Several people were overjoyed and quickly chased after them.
Three tall masson pines are in a circle, and in the middle of the open space stands a small earthen bag made of stones.
The earthen bag is in the shape of a round arch, about thirty or forty centimeters high, like the popular grave of rural people in the old days.
At this time, Tang Yuan was wagging his tail excitedly, barking at the dirt bag constantly.
Zhu Jiangjiang put on his gloves and removed the largest stone pressed against the top of the dirt bag.
With the help of the light projected by the flashlight, it is clear that the skull of Bai Morimori is quietly staying in the center of the earthen bag.
Like the previous five victims, the skull remained in a posture with its head up.
The black hole stared directly at everyone, lonely and sad, as if telling the world his infinite grievances.
Zhu Jiangjiang stabilized his mind and did not continue to move the remaining stones, but restored the soil bag as soon as possible.
"Report to the captain, the remains of the victim have been found in Area B." Zhu Jiangjiang radioed the search to Shi Chong.
"Roger. Hide where you are and wait, and I'll send someone over to change shifts with you after all the area searches are over in a while. ”
The signal in the twilight forest was not very good, and Shi Chong's voice came intermittently from the radio.
Lao Yang led the rice balls to a distance, and Zhu Jiangjiang and policeman Xiao Zhao bent down to erase the footprints on the ground one by one.
Suddenly, there was a "click" sound from the bush, which aroused Zhu Jiangjiang's vigilance.
Xiao Zhao was about to speak, Zhu Jiangjiang covered his mouth, raised his white fingers, and made a gesture to express quietness.
The footsteps became clearer and clearer, and the sound of stepping on the fallen leaves "rustled".
Xiao Zhao's eyes rolled, and he immediately understood.
He tiptoed to the other side of the trail and squatted, ready to catch turtles in an urn with Zhu Jiangjiang.
Suddenly, Tang Yuan seemed to notice something unusual, and he barked wildly in the direction of Zhu Jiangjiang and the others.
Oops!
As soon as the visitor heard the dog barking, he instantly turned around and fled quickly.
"Chase!"
Xiao Zhao chased after him first, Zhu Jiangjiang followed, and Lao Yang also followed with the excited Tangyuan.
The mountain road is not easy to walk, and the vision of the west mountain is getting darker at sunset, and he didn't chase far, Xiao Zhao was completely lost.
"Damn it! I almost caught him just now. ”
Xiao Zhao angrily slammed into the trunk of the tree, full of depression.
Zhu Jiangjiang propped his hands on his knees, panting, while not forgetting to inform him in time of what happened in Chong B area, and shared his position to the work group through succession.
"Area D is the closest to you, and they don't have a harvest for the time being, so I'll have the queen bee come and pick you up." Shi Chong said.
"He can't run away, come with me."
The visitor ran in a hurry, and when he fled, his hat hung on a branch and was discovered by the sensitive sense of smell.
Tangyuan is very human, and he knows that what he is looking for is the owner of the hat.
It reached a fork in the road, and its wet nose twitched a few times, and without the slightest hesitation, it ran up the mountain.
The three of them followed closely with Tang Yuan, and after a while, they found a tall figure in front!
Perhaps thinking that he had escaped, he was holding himself on to the trunk of a tree and gasping for breath, and did not continue to escape.
"Woohoo!"
When the man looked back, he was surprised that the man behind him had caught up, and immediately turned around and ran up the hill.
"Stop!"
Unfortunately, it was too late, and Lao Yang jumped onto the rock with an arrow and pounced on him with a slam of his hand.
The cold light flashed, and the man pulled out a boning knife with red eyes and stabbed it at Lao Yang!
"Woohoo!"
At the critical moment, Tang Yuan rushed up to block, and the boning knife stabbed Tang Yuan's shoulder blade impartially, and blood flowed out instantly.
"Fuck your uncle!"
Without waiting for the man to continue to resist, Lao Yang shouted angrily, hooked his hand and clamped his neck, and cooperated with Xiao Zhao who caught up and subdued him to the ground.
