The clothes that emerged from the soil were not like swaddling clothes wrapped around a baby, but rather like burlap.

Ye Caitang took out his gloves from his waist bag and put them on, squatted down, and removed a layer of soil from them.

The crowd's eyes widened in astonishment.

It wasn't a newborn baby at all, it was a grown man.

"Not a child." Ye Caitang couldn't say that he was relieved, but he was still the same heavy: "Let's dig it out first." ”

Everyone hurriedly moved, and soon a man was dug up.

A putrid stench emanated from the corpse.

Xia Yue, Liu Sha and the others all thought of the same thing, and their faces changed slightly.

But fortunately, the corpse should not have been dead for that long, and it looked like the face and other exposed skin were still normal and not swollen.

The man was dressed in coarse cloth, was of medium age, and had a very recognizable face.

It's Bao Shijie who they have been looking for, but haven't found. Zhao Shu's subordinates described it very accurately, they didn't need a portrait at all, as long as they saw this face, they would naturally be able to recognize this person.

"I didn't expect Bao Shijie to run away with the child, but to be killed."

Everyone was a little surprised, they thought that Bao Shijie had run away with the child, as long as they searched for him with all their might.

Now that Bao Shijie is dead, who is the murderer? Is it the same person as the murderer who stole the child? Bao Shijie doesn't live in this place, why did he appear here, and whether his death was related to the disappearance of the child.

A mystery has not been solved, and a new mystery has been added, and the case has become even more confusing.

Xia Yue said: "Can you see the time of Bao Shijie's death?" ”

Three taels of silver for a month, it's time for you to shine.

Ye Caitang checked it.

"The finger pressure on the corpse spot does not change color, nor does it disappear, this is the third stage of entering the corpse spot, in about twenty hours."

"The corpse is soft, because of the corpse spots, it can't be fresh and dead without zombies. Mortis usually develops within two quarters of an hour after death, peaks within six to eight hours, and begins to resolve after fifteen to eighteen hours. ”

"In this climate, two to three days after death, the zombie will disappear completely."

Fortunately, it was discovered early, and if it had been discovered a while earlier, it might have been necessary to view the giants and let them relive the old memories.

Ye Caitang looked up at Xia Yue: "I estimate that the death time of the corpse is two to three days. ”

Xia Yue said: "In other words, the time of Bao Shijie's death is very close to the time when the Li family's child disappeared. ”

"Yes." Ye Caitang said: "It's a little strange, if Bao Shijie has been dead for two to three days, according to the degree of decay of the corpse, the temperature is so high, it should be crawling with maggots." ”

Flies are the most devastating to corpses, and after death, flies can lay eggs around the corners of the eyes, mouth, nostrils, anus, wounds, etc.

After one to three days of warm weather, the eggs hatch into maggots, and the soft tissues are eaten into honeycombs. Maggots can grow into pupae again, and after two weeks they become flies again, and then start a new breeding cycle. When conditions are right, adult corpses can be eaten by flies in about a month.

The smell can be isolated by the soil for a short time, but maggots and flies not only attach to the corpse, but also burrow around in the soil.

In this way, anyone who passes by can see.

But there are no maggots, mosquitoes, flies, and no corpses.

Xia Yue said: "The time of the deceased's death was after the disappearance of the child. We've searched here before, and I'm sure there was no sign of the site being excavated at that time. ”

If there was, it would have been discovered at that time, and Jian Yu was sure that he would not miss such an important clue.

Ye Caitang roughly checked Bao Shijie's body and limbs, and there were no injuries. asked people to turn Bao Shijie over again, and then said, "My lord." ”

At the back of Bao Shijie's head, there is a blood hole.

There is no need to pretend to look, anyone with eyes can see the cause of his death.

Ye Caitang touched the wound.

"It's a very hard blunt object." Ye Caitang said: "The wound is relatively large, and the murderer's strength is also great, almost shattering half of his head. ”

She looked around, her eyes falling on the shovel beside her.

"Don't say it, just do this."

Hard, large in area, with enough strength and skillful use, it can smash a person's head.

Xia Yue pinched up a little dirt from the corpse and said, "There is something in this soil." ”

It's not very noticeable, but there's something white about it.

"It could be some kind of anthelmintic drug." Xia Yue said: "In order to cover up, the murderer sprinkled a lot of insect repellent in the soil. ”

I have to say that this operation is very cautious.

But burying people here is very casual.

Xia Yue picked up a shovel and looked at it: "This wasn't brought out from the six doors, right?" ”

When they go out to investigate crimes, they generally only carry knives, and unless they have been prepared in advance, it is impossible to carry shovels and hoes.

It hurts the face of the six gates, and they are not going to farm.

"No, it's not." "I borrowed it from a fellow countryman." ”

Fortunately, the other party didn't know that they were digging up the corpse, otherwise, they would not be willing to lend it to them.

"Who's home?"

"It's Li Laifu's house." Wang Tong said: "Lost the child's family, their house is in front, the closest family from here." ”

Ye Caitang thought about it, it was really.

"Give it back first." Xia Yue said: "Let's take a look at which people around here have suspected murder weapons, there are middle-aged men, and they are at home on the night the child was lost." ”

Bao Shijie's death was between two and three days, and after Li Laifu's child was lost, it was only that night.

No matter how bold the murderer is, it is impossible to bury the body here in broad daylight, which is too blatant.

And although it is a dead end here, because of the loss of the child in Golden Lane that day, everyone has a string in their hearts, and they will definitely come to check it out if there is a little wind and grass.

Wang Tong was ordered to go, and everyone packed up, and the body was to be transported back to the six gates.

When I went out from here, I happened to pass by Li Laifu's house.

Before he reached the door of Li Laifu's house, Liu Sha suddenly shushed.

The crowd fell silent and listened to the voices coming from ahead.

Li Laifu and his family were quarreling.

Through the gate of the courtyard, you can hear a loud noise coming from inside.

It was the voice of Li Laifu's mother, Jiang.

"I'll just say that this woman has no children and grandchildren, and you don't believe it. Now it's okay, the child is born, but if it is lost, it is better not to give birth...... My grandson...... Why did you put up such a mother, my hard-working grandson......"

Even crying and shouting, very desolate.

This is Li Laifu's mother scolding her daughter-in-law Hu Yu.
