Chapter 671 I Stretch My Left Foot First

Chapter 671 I stretch my left foot first

The sewage pit at the crime scene is very shallow, but the area is not small, it must be several hundred square meters.

There are four consecutive sewage pits, not far from each other, and the central depth is between half a meter and one meter. But if there is more water, these four sewage pits may converge into a large pool of water.

Liu Sheng stood on the shore, his eyes looking into the distance blankly. Even so, the pungent smell continued to drill into his nose.

I don’t know if anyone has ever done such an experiment, collecting the liquid produced by their own garbage, placing it in a carefully selected glass beaker, and then sitting in front of the beaker, fanning it with his hand above the beaker, so that the smell in the beaker drills into the nasal cavity-that smell!

"Now I don’t know what the criminals in Beijing are doing, either garbage mountains, sewers, or sewage pools. Can’t they do some clean cases!" Liu Sheng complained as soon as he opened his mouth, and the stench in his heart was eager to be spit out.

Standing in a half-person-high pool, the policemen holding hands and touching the mud climbed up and looked at Liu Sheng unhappily: "Liu Da, why don't you go into the pool? The pool doesn't stink."

"What's the principle of the pool not smelling?" Liu Sheng was amused.

The policeman covered in mud said: "The pool is slippery, and my mind is full of disgust. I can't even think of saying it's smelly."

Liu Sheng laughed twice: "Brothers, you have worked hard. It will be over soon. I will ask the detachment leader to approve it. We will eat and drink at public funds."

"Eat lunch at public funds?"

"No, at least... at least it has to be at the level of hot pot." Liu Sheng was not very sure. The detachment leader Tao Lu was not a generous person before, and he has become more and more stingy recently, especially for this kind of unplanned expenses. He basically doesn't spend it if he can, and looks like a loser who has been emptied by Ningtai people.

Liu Sheng sighed. If it really doesn't work, the brigade also has some funds, but if he continues to spend like this, he won't be able to eat hot pot many times.

"Old Liu, go to the pond." At some point, Cui Qishan came over in long-legged rain boots and protective clothing to urge him.

The captain of the Beijing branch and the squadron leader in the county town have similar status in the team. They are both grassroots backbone forces, and they are bound to lead by example. Wading the pumping pond hand in hand is not just a show for the photographers filming nearby.

The criminal police team itself actually has professional technicians in criminal photography. In the early years, this position was quite valued because film and videotapes were very expensive. At the most expensive time, a roll of color Kodak film was almost the same as a policeman's half-month salary. Someone had to be dedicated to take good pictures.

Now it is to avoid a lot of quibbling. Especially for murder cases, they are all handled according to high standards. Taking photos and videos is conducive to the fixation of evidence and the conduct of trials.

It's just that some old policemen suffer - this is the environment when the young policemen join the job, and they just do things according to the rules. The middle-aged and elderly people of the previous generation are not used to it, especially those who like to take shortcuts. At this time, they can only complain.

Liu Sheng and Cui Qishan waded through the pool hand in hand.

This was the last sewage pool, about 30 to 40 meters long and 20 to 30 meters wide, about the same size as a swimming pool. The deepest part was half a meter, and most of the places were only 20 to 30 centimeters. Thick unknown organic matter grew in the pool, and the mud underfoot could sink half a calf.

Liu Sheng walked and said, "Although I have waded through the garbage mountain, I still have to say that this pool is really disgusting."

"It's miserable for your team to follow you."

"It's just luck. I just have bad luck."

"If you continue to have bad luck like this, you will become the stinking team." Cui Qishan gave Liu Sheng a name, which he thought was quite appropriate, and showed a greasy smile of a middle-aged intellectual.

Liu Sheng said, "Are you the corpse excavation team?"

Cui Qishan was stunned, and then changed the subject: "We'd better dig up the body this time, otherwise, I don't know how long it will take to solve this case."

While speaking, Liu Sheng pulled his feet out of the ground and said, "Tao Zhi is really stubborn, can't he pump out the water first?"

"Do you know how much it costs to pump out four pools of water?" Cui Qishan snorted twice.

Liu Sheng curled his lips. He didn't know the specific price, but it must be very expensive. The sewage here must be pumped out by a special sewage truck, and it cannot be discharged casually after pumping. You have to go to a special place to pay for drainage.

Of course, the easier way is to find a few pumps and dig out a pool on the spot, but this behavior not only destroys the crime scene, but also violates the regulations, still cannot be put on the table, and is easy to be complained by the surrounding residents.

"But we still have to collect them in the end." Liu Sheng said, "We have to collect them if we find something, and we still have to collect them if we don't find anything."

"If we find something, we can apply for special funds from the bureau." Cui Qishan can understand the captain of the detachment. After all, he also hopes to be the captain of the detachment in the future.

"How can it be so easy to find? You don't know that we dug so much in the garbage mountain that we could build a house, but we didn't find anything."

Cui Qishan smiled, "It's not that difficult. Finding a corpse is just a matter of constant attempts. Sometimes you can find it by stepping out with your left foot..."

Cui Qishan paused, twisted his left foot twice, and then took out a piece of bone from under his feet.

"Does it look like a human bone?" Cui Qishan asked Liu Sheng next to him.

Liu Sheng stared at the big bone, nodded silently, and then stared at Cui Qishan's left foot for a long time.

...

The sewage suction truck was humming at work.

A group of criminal investigation technicians surrounded the perimeter of the sewage pool, searching inside bit by bit. This time the survey was much more detailed, and a lot of silt was scooped up and sifted through buckets.

Tao Lu stood beside Liu Jinghui and Jiang Yuan, looking at the work here from a distance, and felt that his mood was much more stable.

"Although there may be one more corpse, it should provide a lot of useful clues. I hope we can make a breakthrough this time." Tao Lu said with a smile: "Liu Chu's plan is still very particular."

Liu Jinghui smiled. Speaking of which, he rarely left the province before, and his reputation was only in Shannan Province, not comparable to Tao Lu.

However, reasoning does not need to care about reputation. As long as the correct method is used and the evidence is used correctly, the correct conclusion can be drawn.

"There should be more than one corpse." Liu Jinghui was proud and made a small prediction.

Tao Lu was not surprised and just asked: "What's the reason?"

"If there is only one more corpse, the murderer can just bury them all. There is no need to leave them alone."

Tao Lu couldn't help but nod: "Yes, that's the truth."

"If there is one more corpse, there will be ten corpses." Huang Qiangmin emerged from the other end, standing facing the shallow pool, his voice was calm and powerful, as if he was on his home court.

Tao Lu laughed twice: "Just right."

"Yes." Huang Qiangmin responded speciously, the corners of his mouth raised politely at 22 degrees, and he hid his big white teeth behind his lips very reservedly.

"Corpse No. 5 is a woman. The bones collected so far are not complete, but 80%. It seems that she died earlier than No. 1, 2, and 3." Jiang Yuan was doing analysis on the spot, but did not give any information. Provide a specific time of death.

The condition of the bones this time was more complicated, so he had used a more advanced one before. List the death times of corpses in the same area and affected by the same environment in sequence, rather than the specific time of death.

Tao Lu pondered and asked: "This corpse is immersed in water now. As for corpses No. 1, 2, and 3, have they also been immersed in water for a long time?"

"There are no traces of long-term immersion in water. In the short-term... it is difficult to determine." Jiang Yuan finished and explained: "If the body is exposed in the wild, it will be exposed to rain or immersed in water in a short period of time. It is also unpredictable."

For corpses from two to three years ago, forensic entomology is basically relied upon to determine the time of death, and insects do not care about this level of water accumulation. They are seen a lot, and some prefer to lay eggs in this moist environment.

"What is certain is that the bodies No. 1, 2 and 3 have all been moved twice. This means that the murderer came and went here more than once." Liu Jinghui's words made Tao Lu's eyes light up.

"Elaborate," Tao Lu said.

"More than two to three years ago, most of the people who came and went in the open space here for a long time were male. I think this range is acceptable." Liu Jinghui made a simple summary and continued: "I think the reasons for work can be given priority. , followed by life. In addition, this person was able to pick up the bones of three people into the grave, so he must be very careful, or he did not dump the corpses randomly. "

At this point, Jiang Yuan seemed to be reminded and nodded: "The skeleton is complete and there are no missing bones, which means that at least it was not thrown randomly in the open space. Otherwise, stray dogs, cats, or birds such as crows would It’s possible to damage the bones.”

"The body was thrown away, but not completely?" Liu Jinghui received a positive answer and couldn't help but think hard about what kind of environment this was.
