“Although they had used up a lot of energy in the office the night before, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying still returned to the office early the next morning to start the new day’s investigation work. ”
“At first, Miao Ying was very confident in her own speculation, but at noon, when the zhangze City Police station sent the report over, she was still disappointed. ”
“””Why?”” Miao Ying looked at the information and asked,””I wanted the report about tuo Shan, but they gave me a bunch of search and rescue Records? What kind of joke is this?”” ”
“””Yes, it’s like this, sister Miao.”” Zeng ke quickly explained,””although Luolong County is called a County, it is only a small mountain village. The local police station only deals with some civil disputes, and there are basically no formal cases, let alone cases related to tuo mountain. ”
“””After the forest protection station was set up, everything related to camel mountain was handed over to the forest protection station. ”
“””So, they found the records of the search and rescue at the forest protection station. In the past, there were often some lost backpackers who needed the search team to go into the mountains. ”
“””However, most of the backpackers were rescued. There were no major casualties. Because of this, the forest protection station has been rated as an advanced unit many times!”” ”
“””It’s actually like this!”” Miao Ying threw the documents on the table in disappointment and asked Zeng ke,””when was the forest protection station established? What about before that?”” ”
“””The forest protection station was built in 2010,”” Zeng ke replied.””Before that, it was managed by the Xixia province Forestry Bureau. However, such a large primeval forest could not be managed by the forestry Bureau, so there was no information related to the case.”” ”
“””AI!”” Miao Ying sighed in disappointment, feeling a headache coming on. ”
“However, Zhao Yu had already expected this result. He picked up the forest protection station’s search and rescue information and read it a few times, then said to Zeng ke,”” ”
“””Little Zeng, inform the zhangze police station to send more people to visit the villages and towns near tuo mountain. Ask the local residents if there were any major incidents in the past! ”
“””For example, murder and arson … ”
“””Since it’s a small mountain village, the local people should be more sensitive to such a big event.”” ”
“””Oh!”” “”You mean, the well case is related to a major event?”” Zeng ke asked. Then … What about the time?”” ”
“””What kind of time is this?”” Zhao Yu said,””the earliest victim died five years ago, so any major incident that happened before that could be related to the murderer’s motive!”” ”
“””Oh … Oh …”” Zeng ke nodded.””I’ll hurry up and check …”” ”
“As he spoke, Zeng ke wanted to take the search and rescue record away, but Zhao Yu pressed his palm down and said,””””Don’t move, I’ll take a closer look first!”” ”
“After saying that, he opened the search and rescue information again and read it seriously. ”
“The information was first sent in an electronic file by the forest protection station and then printed out. Although it was all the search and rescue Records of the forest protection station, there was a very detailed record of each search and rescue, even photos of the rescued. ”
Hmm …
“Looking at the photos of the people being rescued, Zhao Yu suddenly thought of something. ”
“Miao Ying saw that Zhao Yu was in a daze, so she quickly came over to look at the information with him. ”
“””Mm … What if … Mm …”” Zhao Yu looked through the information carefully, then pointed to the information of those who were rescued and murmured,””do you think … The deceased in the water well case … Mm … Mm …”” ”
“””You mean …”” Miao Ying’s eyes lit up, as she suddenly understood what Zhao Yu meant.””The well case’s deceased or murderer might appear in this record? ”
“””They were once rescued because they got lost?”” ”
“””I can only say … That’s a possibility, right?”” ”
“Thinking of this possibility, the two of them immediately calmed down and began to read the information page by page. ”
“After searching for a full hour, the two of them didn’t even have time to eat lunch. After looking through all the information of the rescued, they shook their heads in regret. ”
“””No…”” Miao Ying said disappointedly.””We might have taken the wrong path! Maybe there’s some other reason for the water well case …”” ”
“””But …”” Zhao Yu pointed at the information and said,””even if there are no victims, it doesn’t mean that there is no murderer. So …”” ”
“””Oh!”” Miao Ying nodded.””We have to check everyone’s identity!”” ”
“””Yes,”” Zhao Yu said, nodding.””Once we find a suspicious person, we will get his fingerprints and compare them with the fingerprints on the well bricks!”” ”
“””Alright!”” Miao Ying took the documents.””Then leave this to me!”” ”
“Then, Miao Ying took the information and went to check their identities one by one. ”
Hmm …
“Zhao Yu frowned, his mind focused on one thing. He didn’t know why, but when he was looking at the information just now, he felt like there was a clue somewhere … ”
But … What kind of clues were there?
“Actually, last night, when Miao Ying had mentioned that everything was related to the strange well, Zhao Yu had already thought of something. ”
“And what he thought of was exactly what he had said before, the detail that he had overlooked. ”
“However, because he later turned his attention to the report, he no longer thought deeply about it. ”
“Now, combined with the search and rescue record, he seemed to recall it again. ”
A strange well …
Four corpses that were buried alive …
Deep in the mountains and old forests where few people tread …
What exactly was that detail that had been overlooked?
Wait …
“Suddenly, Zhao Yu gathered his thoughts and finally grasped the idea. ”
Could … Could it be … The key to the water well case … Was not in the most eye-catching place? It was … It was …
“Thinking of this, Zhao Yu ran to Miao Ying’s desk and snatched the search and rescue record back like a robber. ”
“””Hey, what’s wrong with you again?”” Miao Ying was confused and quickly stood up. ”
“However, Zhao Yu didn’t say anything, but quickly opened the search and rescue Records and fixed his eyes on a certain photo. ”
That photo was taken after the rescue team found the lost person in the forest. The photo showed the panicked expression of the lost person and the joy of the rescue team after completing the mission.
“””It can’t be?”” Miao Ying guessed,””you don’t think that this case is related to the rescue team, do you?”” ”
“””No!”” Zhao Yu flipped to another similar photo, then pointed at the photo and said,””look, the trees in this primitive forest … Why are they so tall? They’re all towering trees!”” ”
“””You …”” Miao Ying didn’t understand what Zhao Yu meant. ”
“””I say …”” Zhao Yu recalled,””why did I feel like something was wrong when we went to the crime scene? ”
“””So the problem … Is with these trees!”” ”
“””A tree?”” Miao Ying raised her eyebrows.””There’s something wrong with the tree. It’s not a human?”” ”
“””Right!”” Zhao Yu pointed at the photo and said,””these trees are too tall. I just realized that the strange thing about the well case is not only about the well, but also the place where the well is located!”” ”
“””Where the well is?”” Miao Ying asked seriously,””Zhao Yu, can you be more specific?”” ”
“Zhao Yu pointed to his forehead and said,””I called officer Wang from the hillside near the well. The sun was shining on me at that time, which means the trees there were not lush.”” ”
“””But, when we got off the plane and went to the well, we were surrounded by towering trees on both sides. We couldn’t see the sun at all! ”
“””Now, do you understand?”” ”
