Qi Yuan was thoughtful.

In fact, Qi Yuan has seen many cases of selling daughters to cheat sons for one or two million, not to mention one or two million.

In most cases, mother's love and father's love are great enough, but even parents, as a group, are indispensable for their children.

There are even fathers who assault their own daughters, and mothers who hook up with their own sons.

The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.

"I don't think there is any need to discuss this issue now." Brother Song shook his head slightly and said, "Don't forget, this is a case of killing a family, dismembering the body, and murder due to an ordinary economic dispute. It is not possible to go to this step. And if you want to destroy

There is no trace of the corpse, and it is impossible to leave the body parts at the scene.

At present, the nature of the case is not clear. Economic disputes are only a possibility, and there seems to be a certain basis. It is reasonable to kill an entire family for two million. But this possibility is not intellectually great."

"That's right." Su Ping said calmly: "Without affecting the overall situation, we can allocate a little energy to grasp this line. Once we determine this direction, we will immediately arrest the murderer with a thunderous strike.

.

However, this is only the most ideal situation. If you guess wrong and we invest too much police force in the early stage, we will only miss the best investigation time, which is not advisable.

So... I will arrange for you and Song to investigate in the direction you proposed. This is just a precautionary measure. The key now is to determine the nature of the case."

"I know this too." Qi Yuan said with a smile: "Captain Su, you only arranged for me and Brother Song to investigate. I guessed it when you didn't send anyone else."

Su Ping rolled his eyes and said nothing more.

…

Soon, Qi Yuan reported that Lu Qing's husband, Cai Pengcheng, could not be contacted.

Su Ping frowned.

Qi Yuan added: "I also asked my colleagues to find out the contact information of Cai Pengcheng's parents and brothers, and called them, but they all said they had not contacted Cai Pengcheng for a while and were willing to try to contact him, but there was no need

With one exception, the machine is turned off."

After a pause, Qi Yuan asked cautiously: "Captain Su, is it possible that he has run away and his family is trying to cover him up?"

"Of course the possibility exists, but... don't think blindly. Everything is still unclear now, so don't make a conclusion so quickly." Su Ping said calmly: "Are Cai Pengcheng's parents both locals?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Invite them to come over, or find a time for us to come to your door." Su Ping said: "In addition, let's handle it as lost contact first, and ask the brothers from the technical team to determine Cai Pengcheng's last location before he lost contact, and find a way to find him first.

come out."

Qi Yuan nodded lightly.

He understood that before the crime of the case was completely determined, Su Ping was still unwilling to invest too much police force on a clue with an undetermined direction.

But at the same time, the loss of contact with Cai Pengcheng did make Su Ping pay more attention to it and aroused corresponding vigilance, so an additional part of the police force was deployed, especially the intervention of the technical team, in order to find out Cai Pengcheng's whereabouts as soon as possible.

Cai Pengcheng was already a certain suspect, but when he lost contact again, the suspicion was greatly increased.

Not long after, Brother Song also called.

"Team Su." Brother Song's voice came through Su Ping's loudspeaker: "We found out that in the past year, Lu Huanshan has indeed received transfers totaling approximately 2.179 million yuan."

"Where is the transfer person?" Su Ping asked.

"Cai Pengcheng."

Su Ping:......

After two seconds, he replied: "Okay, I understand, you should come back first."

"good."

After hanging up the phone, Su Ping thought about it and called Xun Mu again.

"What's the matter, Lao Su?" Xun Mu asked.

Su Ping briefly told him the situation, and then asked, "What do you think?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then Xun Mu said: "Just do what you think now, treat it as lost contact, and invest some police force to find the person. Experience tells us that Cai Pengcheng is likely to be related to this case."

Su Ping thought for a while and asked: "What if we guess wrong?"

"The key question - everything is fine, why did Cai Pengcheng lose contact?" Xun Mu asked back, and after two seconds, he continued: "Of course, it may be a coincidence, and the phone happened to be turned off... But this coincidence is a bit unreasonable, maybe

Not very sexual.

Therefore, no matter what the nature of the case is, it should be right to find Cai Pengcheng's whereabouts. At the same time, you still have a certain amount of manpower here. Even if Cai Pengcheng's phone just happened to be out of power and shut down or for some other reason that caused us to go in the wrong direction, it doesn't matter.

, just adjust it quickly.”

"Okay, I understand." Su Ping said softly: "Anyway, let me pay more attention. How are you doing over there now?"

"Lao Tu and the others have just started." Xun Mu said: "The scene... To be honest, I really can't stay. I'm waiting for news outside."

"Are you working outside with a hammer?" Su Ping rolled his eyes: "If I don't need you, just hurry up and come down. The pestle is in the way. If you can't help, you will make yourself suffer. Why bother?"

Xun Mu did not answer, but naturally changed the topic and said: "By the way, I forgot to mention, regarding the whereabouts of Cai Pengcheng... Please ask my colleagues from the Traffic Management Bureau to help, we may be able to find some clues there..."

"Yes, yes, I understand."

After saying that, Su Ping hung up the phone and muttered: "What the hell is this old Xun doing? I've never seen him stay at the scene before."

Qi Yuan silently handed Su Ping a cigarette, not daring to say anything or ask any more questions.

…

At the same time, Xun Mu was sitting on the corridor outside the scene, lighting a cigarette for himself, holding his cell phone in his other hand, wondering what he was thinking.

After a long while, he sighed, put the phone away, touched his right abdomen, and was silent for a long time.

He had a physical examination two days ago and was found to have primary liver cancer...

Fortunately, it is not serious. The doctor suggested that he undergo another re-examination and arrange surgery. It is initially estimated that approximately one-third of the liver will be removed, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which will cure the disease.

It can be regarded as one of the benefits of regular physical examination. Early detection and early treatment usually lead to a good prognosis. In addition, he is still young, has strong bones and can carry the disease, and the cure rate is quite high.

What's more, the liver itself is quite special. It is the only organ in the body that can heal itself. Even if one-third is removed, it can recover after a period of time.

But in the future, he may not be able to appear on the scene with the front line anymore, and I still miss him a bit.

He just didn't expect that he would retreat to the background earlier than Su Ping and retreat to the second line. But in fact, he and Su Ping, as captains and vice-captains, didn't have to do everything personally and were on the front line of everything.

and……

The operation is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, and he probably won't be able to finish this case.

When he first made the call, he wanted to talk to Su Ping about this matter. He had to rely on him to take charge of the case, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't spit them out, and finally swallowed them again.

Suddenly, he noticed that his fingertips were burning, and he instinctively retracted his hand. The cigarette butt fell to the ground, and he realized that all the cigarettes had been smoked.

Shaking his head, he stamped out the cigarette butt, picked it up and wrapped it in tissue paper. He lit another one and smoked silently.

He knew it was not good to smoke now, but...

I can't help but want to smoke, and most of the time I just light it up and don't go through my lungs.

I don't know how much time passed, but Tu Zhongxin came out and saw his appearance. He couldn't help but asked, "Why did you drop Captain Xun? Something happened at home?"

"It's okay." Xun Mu came back to his senses, smiled softly, coughed twice to moisten his throat, and asked again: "What did you say on the spot?"

"It's hard to resist," Tu Zhongxin shook his head and said, "The murder scene should be the living room. Preliminary judgment shows that after the murderer rushed in, he simply shocked several victims with a high-voltage electric baton, and then killed them separately with a knife. ."

"Electric baton?" Xun Mu pinched his chin: "This thing has been strictly controlled in recent years, so it's not easy to get it, right?"

"It should be homemade," Tu Zhongxin said: "Judging from the autopsy results, although the voltage of the electric baton is very high, it is also very unstable, which is quite dangerous for the operator. In addition, this The principle of the thing is not complicated, so it is most likely homemade."

Xun Mu was thoughtful.

After a pause, Tu Zhongxin continued: "Also... you also saw the scene, three piles of corpses, neatly arranged, do you know how to do it?"

Xun Mu shook his head slightly, and then said with a smile: "Lao Tu, when did you learn to tell the truth? Just say it."

"Freeze, cut into pieces, and stack." Tu Zhongxin pursed his lips and said: "But... after the body is frozen, it is extremely difficult to chop and cut with traditional knives, and then judge based on the cross-section of the body... The murderer should have used a cutting machine. , it should be a portable and handheld cutting machine.”

Xun Mu frowned and couldn't help but ask: "What does the murderer mean?"

"The motive is not clear, but there must be a deep-seated reason, and it is likely to be closely related to his motive for committing the crime." Tu Zhongxin said: "In my impression, there seemed to be no similar logic in the past, so the perverted murderer committed another crime, or the murderer followed suit. It is unlikely that he committed the crime, but his own factors are more likely."

After a pause, Tu Zhongxin added: "In addition... there is a very important factor in cutting neatly and sharply, that is, the body parts must be large enough. So... the three piles of body parts are actually relatively large. Just body parts."

"What do you mean?" Xun Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart trembled: "Is it possible that the body parts at the scene were not complete?"

"Not really." Tu Zhongxin shook his head: "But there is indeed such a risk. I can't tell whether the body parts are complete now - because the four parts such as the head, pelvis, hands, and feet were all cut off by the murderer. , crushed it to pieces, and placed it in the middle of three piles of corpses.

Parts such as the torso, arms, big and small legs, etc. were cut into square shapes after freezing, and then glued together with adhesive, finally forming three square piles of body parts.

In other words, the order was reversed, the murderer first made three piles of hollow square corpses, and then mashed the head, pelvis, hands and feet and placed them in the middle."

"Huh?" Xun Mu's brain flashed with lightning, he blinked and said, "Yong Tofu?"

Tu Zhongxin:???

Xun Mu said: "Lao Tu, tell me if it looks like it. The square shape on the outside looks like tofu, with a piece dug out in the middle and minced meat put in..."

"If Xiao Qi said that, I wouldn't be surprised." Tu Zhongxin rolled his eyes: "But... I'm just curious how you came up with this thing?"

"My wife made a plate of Yong Tofu last night." Xun Mu turned away, pursed his lips, and muttered: "But for some special reasons, I can't eat it, so I can only watch. You know, Yong Tofu is my It's one of my favorite dishes, and I can't help but think about it all the time. As soon as you mentioned it, I suddenly thought of..."
