Chapter 93：

Luming Mountain Top Hot Spring Hotel.

Manager He specially opened a conference room for the police station as the headquarters, and there was a lot of noise in it at the moment.

"No way, no way!" Zhuang Shijie patted his hands on the table, propped up half of his body, and categorically cut the railway line. Consolidation of the disappearance case within Mingshan is already out of compliance, let alone a case of homicide and dismemberment. Is there any connection to this?"

"Team Zhuang, these are clearly connected." Xiao Liu argued, "What's more, it is not surprising that dozens of people have disappeared in a city in a few years, but it is definitely not normal that so many people have disappeared in a scenic spot!"

"That's all speculation, and there is no evidence to support it. Moreover, Luming Mountain spans hundreds of kilometers from east to west, and the scenic spot only occupies a small area." Zhuang Shijie closed the folder with a snap.

"Obviously there is so much indirect evidence." Xiao Liu opened the folder and turned to a page, and then went to show him.

"Chu Li! Say something!" Zhuang Shijie waved Xiao Liu's hand and turned his head angrily, "Let your subordinates come forward, when did you become so cautious?"

Sitting alone under the window, Chu Li heard the words, "tsk" and rubbed his forehead.

Headache. Really, I really want to have another cigarette.

"Team Chu he..."

"You just listen when I say it?" Chu Li stopped Xiao Liu from telling the story about his injury, just glanced at Zhuang Shijie and asked strangely.

"..." Zhuang Shijie wanted to lift the table.

What you mean is that I don’t agree with what you said anyway, so I don’t even bother to say yes, then you still call the subordinate to respond to me!

"I can't discuss any results anyway." Chu Li said casually, "Rather than holding a search meeting here, it's better to see the scene."

"Then you gave up the idea of ​​merging the case?" Zhuang Shijie sneered.

"No, I just want to think that someone will send the evidence of the parallel case soon, and there is no need to quarrel right now." Chu Li said slowly.

"What did you say?" Zhuang Shijie was taken aback.

"Team Chu, you mean..." Xiao Liu said in surprise.

The mobile phone in Chu Li's hand turned around at his fingertips and sneered.

"Team Chu!" At this moment, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open. Dayang rushed in sweatingly, and said excitedly, "Team Chu, I brought out all the files, and Xiao Xiao sorted it out and sent it to the mailbox. inside."

With that, he put the laptop under his ribs on the table and quickly turned it on.

"What file?" Zhuang Shijie asked subconsciously.

"The disappearance of Lu Mingshan." Dayang replied without thinking about who asked.

"Chu, Li!" Zhuang Shijie slapped the table angrily.

"Huh?" Chu Li raised his eyes and asked in confusion, "I don't need the Zhuang team's permission to retrieve the case files in the Jiangnan City area?"

"You..." Zhuang Shijie was angrily.

"As for the part of Qingjiang City, you will send it over sooner or later, I'm not in a hurry." Chu Li shrugged.

"Absolutely impossible!" Zhuang Shijie gritted his teeth, "If I will give you the file, I will eat the keyboard immediately!"

Just as Chu Li wanted to talk, the phone's bell happened to rang. He glanced at the name floating on the screen, and couldn't help laughing: "Hello?"

"Chu Li, I found it. You can file a case." Tang Xi leaned against a big tree, her voice hoarse, and the morning sun pierced through the forest and shone on her face, unable to conceal the tiredness.

Behind her, there was a big pit that had been dug.

"Well, I see, you can let someone check the location of my mobile phone." Tang Xi continued, "Okay, I'll wait for you."

When I hung up the phone, a bottle of water suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

"Don't open a bottle for me?" Tang Xi sighed, spreading her hands, "I have no strength in my hands."

"I thought that a lady shouldn't drink a drink that has been opened." Pei Qing smiled and helped her unscrew the bottle cap before handing it over again.

"There is no colorless, odorless, and half-second medicine that makes people lose their mobility." Tang Xi said, filling a half bottle of water, raising his hand to wipe off the water stains on his lips, looking at him with a smile but a gentle smile. Truly, "Those who dare to give me medicine, I'm afraid they don't want their own life, right?"

Pei Qingzhi opened another pack of compressed biscuits for her, and said: "That's what I said, there are so many flower protectors around you, who can't think about it."

Tang Xi took a bite of the dry biscuits, took another drool, and swallowed it for a long time.

"Tang Tang?" Pei Qing raised an eyebrow.

"Okay! Please." Tang Xi's eyes lit up immediately.

"No problem." Pei Qingzhi said immediately.

It seems that there is hope, and compressed biscuits have become less unpalatable.

After swallowing a small piece to fill his stomach a little, Tang Xi flipped through the backpack placed under the tree and took out the snakeskin bag.

"What are you doing?" Pei Qingzhi subconsciously said.

"I promised Fu Xiao to take Guan Li back to her." Tang Xi took it for granted.

"But..." Pei Qingzhi showed a tangled expression.

"Indeed, the question now is, which one is the official gift!" Tang Xi pouted and was very upset.

When he took out the ring again, the yellow diamond was still gray, as if covered in dust.

"It looks like it can't be used anymore." Tang Xi sighed, "Yes, just such a little obsession, you can't ask for more, you still have to be self-reliant."

Then Pei Qingzhi witnessed "self-reliance" with a horrified look.

"It's time to join the case." Chu Li hung up the phone and raised his head, with a hint of pride and smile in his eyes.

"What do you mean?" Zhuang Shijie asked in a deep voice.

"The remains of the missing person have been found." Chu Li shook his phone.

"So what?" Zhuang Shijie frowned. "Even if you find a skeleton, you can't judge whether it is an accident or a case. Take a step back. Even if it is a homicide case, it may not be related to other disappearance cases..."

"Not a skeleton." Chu Li interrupted.

"What?" Zhuang Shijie was taken aback.

"Team Zhuang, in these years, the people missing in Luming Mountain have nothing in common, right?" Chu Li asked.

"Yes, this is one of the reasons why I don't support the merger." Zhuang Shijie said immediately.

"Now, there is something in common." Chu Li gradually reduced his smile, with a solemn expression, "A total of forty-eight corpses are buried together."

"Wow~" However, Zhuang Shijie stood up too much and swept the folders on the table onto his belt, and the files were scattered all over the floor like snow flakes.

"Team Chu, what do you say?" Xiao Liu asked with a trembling voice.

"Forty-eight corpses." Chu Li repeated, staring into Zhuang Shijie's eyes, and slowly said, "Now tell me, is there any connection between these missing cases?"

Zhuang Shijie froze on the spot, only feeling cold in his hands and feet.

Not only him, but the other police officers from Qingjiang, and even the people from the Jiangnan Municipal Bureau were shocked.

Forty-eight corpses, if they were piled together, it would be a massacre scene. If they were spread, they would be able to catch up with the case of Qu Peng, the doctor of the Linjiang Private Hospital in the first half of the year.

"What are you doing in a daze? He appeared on the scene, has the forensic doctor Su arrived? The person who gave the intern the body of the Luming Hotel, go and see the one over there first." Chu Li glared at them.

"Ah yes." As if the paused picture was pressed the play button again, everyone immediately moved.

"Ah, that's right!" Xiao Liu leaned over and asked seriously, "Team Chuang, how do you cook this keyboard? Braised? Steamed? Or eat it raw? Do you need to open a live broadcast for you? It must be very popular. !"

Zhuang Shijie:...

"Shao poor mouth, let's go!" Chu Li sneered, not having a good air.

"Oh." Xiao Liu touched his head. He didn't expect Zhuang Shijie to answer him, and followed him quickly.

"The villager..."

"The first group will stay and the others will follow me." Zhuang Shijie's eyes were dark, and he immediately ordered.

Tang Xi's mobile phone was not too far away from the viewing area. Manager He sent a security guard who was familiar with the terrain to show them the way, and it took less than half an hour to get there.

"Pei Qingzhi?" Chu Li was a little surprised, looked around, and said again, "Where is Tang Xi?"

"Next." Pei Qingzhi pointed helplessly.

The group followed his gaze and discovered that a large pit with a diameter of ten meters had been dug in the ground. It is really hard to believe how they dug it out overnight.

At this moment, a young girl is picking and choosing from the bottom of the pit. It's just that the pick is not the vegetables or trinkets on the floor, but... the bones.

Zhuang Shijie stopped and looked thoughtfully at the slender figure.

Is this the girl who passed by on the mountain road yesterday?

Jiangnan Municipal Bureau, consultant of the crime team? Sure enough, do you have special abilities in a certain profession?

"Tang Xi! What are you looking for? Come up!" Chu Li shouted, standing on the edge of the big hole with a black line.

"Slow to death." Tang Xi complained, losing a bone he picked up in his hand and leaping into the pit lightly.

"This, this is..."

"It looks like a mass grave."

"It's so cruel, which **** is so desolate!"

The police surrounded the pit and talked about it.

In the opened loess, there are many bones everywhere, which is shocking.

"How is it?" Chu Li asked.

"Correct what I said on the phone just now." Tang Xi took off his disposable gloves and said in a deep voice, "The corpses are not forty-eight, but forty-nine. One of them is a pregnant woman. The fetus is already formed, and one corpse has two lives."

Chu Qi thought, even if he didn't understand the profound arts, but common sense knew that forty-nine, this number would not be a coincidence.

Sure enough, Tang Xi went on to say: "The "Zhou Yi·Xi Ci Upload" wrote that Dadao is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, and people are one of them. Those who do this want the one who's escaped. one'."

"Speaking of people." Chu Li rolled his eyes.

"It means that these people are all selected. Someone selectively killed 49 people for certain purposes and buried their bodies here." Tang Xi said simply, "From the perspective of Feng Shui, this place It is a natural and extremely shady place, and it is used as a tomb.

"Let's not talk about this..." Chu Li doubted, "I have buried dozens of corpses, why no one found them? I remember three years ago, the rescue team quickly turned Lumingshan over in order to find a rich second generation. Come here, can't you see this?"

"Did you meet a ghost and hit the wall?" Xiao Liu rushed.

"Nonsense." Zhuang Shijie reprimanded unceremoniously, "How can we promote feudal superstition as a police officer? All unsolved mysteries are logically to be found after the truth is solved. We can't go as soon as we encounter difficulties. Push yourself!"

"..." Xiao Liu looked at Tang Xi with a look of lovelessness.

"It's not wrong to say that a ghost hit the wall." Tang Xi chuckled and wrote lightly.

"Miss Tang..." Zhuang Shijie said displeasedly.

"Come with me." Tang Xi beckoned.

Everyone was taken aback, but when they saw her, they had turned and left without hesitation, and could only follow.

Tang Xi didn't go far, and stopped. In front of her, there were two trails that could barely be regarded as a road.

"Pei Qingzhi, come here for a while." Tang Xi shouted.

"What?" Pei Qingzhi walked over very cooperatively.

"They are all policemen. They think differently from ordinary people, but you are an ordinary person." Tang Xi asked him to stand beside him and point to the fork in the road ahead: "Assuming that the two roads lead to the same place, you will walk. Which one?"

Pei Qingzhi was startled, looked around, and pointed to the one on the left without much hesitation.

"Why did you choose this route?" Tang Xi asked.

"Why..." Pei Qingzhi frowned and thought for a while, before speaking for a long time, "Probably the other one makes me feel insecure?"

"Yes." Tang Xi nodded and said happily, "One of the two roads is flat, and the other intersection is half blocked by a stone. It looks narrow and depressing. Normal people will subconsciously go to the spacious one. It is the first-level psychological hint. The ghost hits the wall, in the final analysis, it is just a higher level of psychological hints and visual errors, which makes people subconsciously bypass this piece and still don't notice it."

"So the rescue team didn't find it?" Chu Li said.

"Well, ghost hitting the wall does not exist, but Qimen Dunjia is a science that can be explained by science." Tang Xi smiled and said, "The trees and rocks around here have been processed by people, forming a strong vision. Errors will cause people inside to not get out, people outside to get in, and keep going around in circles on the spot."

"Then we walked in?" someone interjected.

Tang Xi didn't care who said it, with an expression of "Are you an idiot" on his face: "Of course I took it down before you came."

Chu Li was taken aback for a moment, no wonder the traces of damage on the road were so severe.

While talking, Su Wanyi and another forensic doctor from Qingjiang City had gone to the bottom of the pit to examine the bones.

"I took a brief look. The newest bones here are more than a year old, and they are basically all bones. It looks like they kill enough people to stop." Tang Xi added.

"Team Chu, call support." Su Wanyi shouted from the bottom of the pit, "There are too many bones, and it takes a lot of manpower to move them all down the mountain!"

Before Chu Li spoke, Pei Qingzhi walked over and said, "The rescue helicopter is still in the hotel. If necessary, I will let them fly and bag the bones and send them back to the city bureau?"

"Okay!" Chu Li said immediately.

"..." Zhuang Shijie flushed with a flush.

Chu Parting turned his face away from looking at him.

Didn’t it say that the case will not be merged? We found the corpse now and must be brought back to Jiangnan City. If Qingjiang wants to participate, it can only be in a subordinate position.

Upon seeing this, Pei Qing walked aside to call.

Chu Li finally heard the good news, but felt that the headache had subsided a lot. He raised his hand and rubbed Tang Xi's head and praised, "Good job!"

"Don't keep touching my head, I don't grow tall!" Tang Xi slapped his hand and said angrily.

Chu Li looked at her up and down, and said happily, "It's okay. You are tall enough, so long as it hurts the male compatriots' self-esteem."

"!!!" Tang Xi only felt his teeth itchy.

I want to beat the guardian every day.

"Why did you bring Pei Qingzhi?" Chu Li lowered his voice again, "It is not good to involve ordinary people in this kind of case."

"Hey? But..." Tang Xi was half-talking and dumb.

Indeed, there is no need to bring Pei Qingzhi's, but when he said it, she agreed.

What seems to be wrong? But Pei Qingzhi wouldn't hold her back either, just as if he brought a little brother who carried her bag, it seemed...somewhat useful?

Well, nothing wrong!

"This, Miss Tang, it's really not easy." Zhuang Shijie approached.

"The villager has passed the award, and the children's family will not be ashamed of me if they can help." Chu Li remained calm.

"Oh?" Zhuang Shijie raised his eyebrows.

"It's Team Zhuang, when will the case file be delivered to me?" Chu Li asked.

"Tomorrow!" Zhuang Shijie snorted coldly.

"The efficiency is good." Chu Li praised, then changed his tone, and said again, "But the keyboard stuff hurts the stomach again, so forget it."

"..." Zhuang Shijie wanted to fight.

The serious crime team leader in Jiangnan City is a thorny head. Everyone who has worked with him knows that it is just that Tan Ju is willing to let it go, and his detection rate is indeed extremely high, and other people can only hold back their dissatisfaction. But... it's really annoying to get along every minute!

"Keyboard?" Tang Xi was blank.

"Yeah, Team Zhuang likes to eat keyboards." Xiao Liu interjected in a cool voice, ignoring the ferocious eyes from the side.

Anyway, Zhuang Shijie is not his boss, so he can't wear shoes for him. What's more, every time the two cities need to cooperate in a case, Zhuang Shijie squints at his captain. Although it won't affect the investigation in public affairs, can you not beat the water dogs in private? This time, Zhuang Shijie handed it over with his own handle, enough for them to tease for a year or a half.

"Ahem." Chu Li coughed dryly, "It's none of your business."

"Oh." Tang Xi looked at Zhuang Shijie, whose face looked like a color palette, and felt that he shouldn't get into trouble.

"Team Chu." Su Wanyi walked over.

"How is it?" Chu Li looked at him immediately.

"The skeletons below are many and messy. It takes a little effort to put them together separately." Su Wanyi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said helplessly, "However, there are a total of forty-nine skeletons, don't talk about the hospital. , Even the city council can’t make room for that much.”

"Uh..." Chu Li just remembered this question.

"Also." Su Wanyi said again, "Although it was only a preliminary survey, I found that the earliest skeletons here are more than ten years old."

"Ten years?" Chu Li couldn't help raising his voice.

"Ten years is a conservative estimate." Su Wanyi said cautiously. "The possibility of twenty years is not ruled out. Specific analysis and testing are needed."

Chu Li grabbed the messy hair even more messy, with a look of irritability, and then said for a while: "Team Zhuang, I think it's too late for tomorrow."

"Yeah." Zhuang Shijie reluctantly replied.

Although it wasn't deliberate this time, he was slapped in the face as soon as he spoke. This kind of taste really made his face hard to fall, and as long as he met Chu Li, it would be no good!

"The collected case files are not enough." Chu Li smiled bitterly and murmured, "There was no paperless office more than ten years ago. Many of them were paper documents, and they hadn't been entered into the computer. It was difficult to find. "

"Speaking of it, this year is really unfavorable for passing years." A little police officer interjected, "Like the doctor the Ripper in the year, and forty-nine lives this time, this kind of big case is rare for the police in a lifetime. I came across one, but only half a year this year I ran into two."

No one feels speechless.

"Come up, after the case is solved, the whole group will raise the bonus and have a three-day holiday!" Chu Li shouted.

"Yeah!" Several young police officers cheered and moved faster.

"Seriously." Su Wanyi scolded, "It's not bones, but people!"

"Oh..." Several people bowed their heads after being trained and hurried to work.

"Team Chu." Pei Qingzhi walked over after the call, with a perfect smile on her face. "There is a gymnasium under Pei's name that has just been completed and has not been put into use. It is currently closed. Team Chu--does it need it?"

"..." Chu Li looked at him silently.

Pei Qingzhi's sincere expression seemed to be an enthusiastic and good citizen.

After a long while, Chu Li finally defeated, helplessly: "Then I will trouble Mr. Pei."

There was a bit of gritted teeth in the voice.

"You're welcome." Pei Qingzhi raised an eyebrow.

"Speaking of which, the pit here is a bit strange." Suddenly, a policeman said.

"How strange?" Zhuang Shijie walked over immediately.

That person was exactly Zhuang Shijie’s right-hand man. He squatted on the edge of the big pit and pointed to the soil layer and said: "You see, team Zhuang, the soil layer here has turned over. If it was dug from top to bottom, it wouldn’t be like this. Like...like..."

"Like what?" Zhuang Shijie urged impatiently.

"It's like it exploded from the inside out." The policeman finally finished speaking.

"For such a big hole, the machine can't get up here. If it was dug manually, it would take a day or two." Zhuang Shijie didn't find it strange. Blasting like "buried point" would be much more convenient, right?"

"But there are no traces of blasting here." The policeman argued, "And the point is that the bones are intact, and the scars are all old. They should have been injured when they were alive or just after death. If they were bombed. If you open it, it will probably hurt the bones in the pit."

When Zhuang Shijie heard the words, his expression became stiff, and finally he looked squarely.

Especially when he remembered that he hadn't even seen digging tools such as shovel from beginning to end.

"How did you dig that?" On the other side, Chu Li also asked curiously.

"It was exploded with spiritual power." Tang Xi shrugged, raised his hands to show him, and said bitterly, "My hands are still shaking, while exploding the soil, while protecting the bones, if it weren't for Chinese New Year. That time the bottleneck was broken by mistake, and it may not be possible."

Chu Li was silent for a while, then pointed at Zhuang Shijie: "How to explain?"

"I asked someone to dig it." Pei Qingzhi listened quietly, only then interjected.

"Can they believe it?" Chu Li felt that he didn't believe it.

"Aren't your police talking about evidence?" Pei Qingzhi shrugged and said innocently. "There is no doubt about the crime. If you don't believe it, you can explain how to dig it yourself."

Chu Li was speechless.

"Pei Qingzhi, you are so reliable!" Tang Xi patted his shoulder happily.

Whether it's home travel or murder and arson, Pei Qingzhi-you deserve it!
