The curtains in that room were tightly closed, not a trace of light could penetrate, and the floor was completely covered.
The town police finally arrived, a group of five people. A chief, two police officers, a full-time forensic doctor, and an auxiliary police officer.
The two waves of people introduced each other and formed a temporary team.
After everyone gathered together, we walked up the mountain.
The village chief led the way while introducing his village with a boastful tone, "I think back then, our village was the poorest among the eight villages in Shili. Even city reporters who came to collect poverty alleviation information shook their heads and said that our village was in great need of help.
But the people in our village are capable and willing to endure hardships, and they have made Zhaojiacun rich and become a famous village in this area that got rich first."
I used my feet to pull at the Nepeta japonica next to me, but my heart felt completely calm.
It is possible for a poverty-stricken area from ancient times to become a village that can live a normal life without eating corn on the cob. However, it will take a few years to completely renovate it into what Zhaojia Village is today, unless the whole village steals a rich man's property.
Tomb, there is still some credibility.
With the village chief chattering all the way, we arrived at the scene of the crime in the mountains.
The smell of rotting corpses floated in the air, and the stench of rotten wood emanated from the foot of the tree.
Looking ahead at the foot of the tree, you can see a rotten corpse, exuding a rotten smell, and the skin has long been rotten.
The hot weather creates strong conditions for the activities of many small animals.
Looking closer, the flies began to fly slowly on the dead body, and many white fly maggots squirmed on the body, as if tens of thousands of white worms were gathering together.
Several dead bodies had bloodshot eyes open and their mouths opened wide, as if they had suffered great pain before death. Their messy hair was mixed with blood and soil, making them look extremely desolate.
The forensic doctor collected samples from the corpse one by one and prepared to send them to the city to test the DNA of the deceased to confirm the identity of the deceased.
I walked up to the corpse and saw that the torn parts of the corpse were black and abnormally dark, with a sinister air coming out.
Fresh, tortured death penetrated the corpse.
Why do you say that? There is a lot of yin energy on the corpse, which means that the deceased has been staying with the killer for a long time. The killer tortured the deceased with all the earthly methods he could think of, and then tortured the deceased again.
The deceased wanted to die but was half-dead, so he used his own Yin Qi to torture the deceased again until he died.
This method is perverted and cruel.
It's not a revenge of killing someone, taking away his wife, or killing his parents. He probably can't be that cruel.
I nodded towards Zhou Xing. Zhou Xing knew in his heart that after the forensic doctors had done a good job, he would contact the nearest funeral home to collect the body for cremation.
On the way back, a small courtyard caught my attention.
The yard is very dilapidated, with half-collapsed walls around it, lush weeds growing everywhere, wild vines winding up along the broken door lintels and window lattice, moss covering the ground, and rubble scattered everywhere.
But there was smoke coming out of the kitchen and someone was living there.
I never expected that such a prosperous Zhaojia Village would have such an unusual house.
Seeing that I was still, the village chief turned to look at the small courtyard, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, "Officer Chang, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
I suppressed the doubts in my heart, not wanting to alert him, so I dealt with him casually.
With such a big commotion from the police, something will definitely happen tonight.
It was getting late and we had dinner in the town.
With many years of experience in solving crimes, Zhou Xing drove me back to Zhaojiacun.
I also have this plan.
The dense black clouds, like endless thick ink, heavily smeared the entire sky, not even the glimmer of stars.
The car stopped at the head of the village. In order not to disturb the villagers of Zhaojia Village, we had to walk into the village.
The magnificent building during the day was now shrouded in black mist.
All the lights were turned off, only the village chief's house gave out a little light.
Zhou Xing and I crept over the low wall and quietly entered the courtyard. We happened to see the village chief and his wife sitting in the living room with a candle swaying in the wind. Their faces were illuminated by the candle swaying in the wind, and they had no expression at all.
"I told you to ignore them, but you insist on doing so! Now, okay, these police have taken away the evidence. Just watch, in a few days, both of us will have to go to jail!"
The village chief's wife's face turned pale, and her whole body was trembling after she finished speaking.
The village chief looked disapproving, with a bit of ferocity on his face, "What are you afraid of? We have mastered the secret method of our ancestors. We have killed more than ten members of the Li family.
There is only one blind old woman left. Those villagers outside, everything they enjoy now is not given to them by me. If they are a bit unfaithful and give away all their stuff, I can still get it back, right?
The policemen today are all the same. If they leave, I will not send them away, but if they are determined to take care of this matter, I will make it impossible for them to come back!"
Under the blessing of darkness at night, Village Chief Zhao finally revealed his true face.
The village chief's wife finally laughed out loud, "Yes, how could I forget my ancestors? It's my fault. I will go and offer some sticks of incense to my ancestors now."
There was a cough from the second floor, the two stopped talking, put out the candles and went to sleep.
Zhou Xing listened with great interest and his eyes dazzled.
"Chang Yi, this is a big harvest. Now we just need to find out the motive of their murder and peel off the cocoons to solve the case."
Under the moonlight, we were ready to go back to the small town.
As soon as I arrived at the car, I saw the little girl lying on top of the boy on the bicycle that day.
The girl was sitting on the front hood of the car. She had changed into a pink suit today, and she was still smiling at me, looking innocent and cute.
Of course, except for those two dark eye sockets.
"Brother, we meet again."
The voice is lively and melodious.
I chuckled, it was a bit of a coincidence.
Watching Zhou Xing open the car door and start the car, I knocked on the car window with my hand, "Wait a moment, I have something to do."
Zhou Xing looked at me a little suspiciously. Then he thought about my profession and felt it was normal, "Okay."
"Little sister, it's so late and it's not safe to be out alone. Do you want my brother to take you home?"
I want to turn passivity into initiative and let myself take the initiative.
The little girl was indeed very wise, and then she pointed at Zhaojiacun and said in a cheerful tone, "Over there, my home is over there."
Zhaojiacun? That's not a good place.
The little girl jumped up and led the way. When she saw a newly blooming flower, she would stop and smell the fragrance. Unfortunately, she was dead and could not smell the flower.
I followed slowly behind, a little curious about the cause of this little girl's death.
"You know my identity, right? Do you want me to save you? It would be very lonely to be alone outside without friends." This chapter has been completed!
