At four o 'clock in the afternoon, in the temporary office of the Special Investigation Group of the Criminal Police Unit in Wuqingshan County.
Wuqingshan County was a small county in the mountains. It was far away from the plains, and its location was remote. Naturally, the scale of its buildings could not be compared with that of a big city.
However, because it was a famous tourist destination, it was quite hygienic. Moreover, the police station was surrounded by mountains on two sides and water on one side. It was a beautiful place with beautiful scenery.
In addition, although the police station was small, it was fully equipped and had a smooth network, which could basically meet the needs of the Special Investigation Group.
"Zhao Yu … Why are you back so soon?" Miao Ying was very surprised to see Zhao Yu suddenly appear at the door of the office. "Only three bodies have been transported here. Aren't you going to keep an eye on them?"
"What's the use of keeping an eye on them? The scene has been surveyed, and I've asked Ran Tao to keep an eye on them! " Zhao Yu took a glass of water from the water dispenser and drank it. "Now, they've got another lift. With the two working together, we should be able to finish before dark!"
"Team Leader," Zeng Ke said, raising his hand in the distance. "I've sent someone to retrieve the video surveillance near the intersection of the cliff. Captain Xiong has also transferred several experienced criminal police officers from the city to help check the surveillance. We should be able to finish the investigation by tonight!"
"Okay!" Zhao Yu said. "It's best to walk on two legs. Ask Captain Xiong to send a group of people to investigate the nearby area. Don't miss any clues! As long as we can find the tools used by the murderer, the case will be half solved! "
"Okay!" Zeng Ke took the order and immediately went to arrange it.
"Zhao Yu …" Miao Ying pulled Zhao Yu aside and asked, "In addition to using a scaffold lift, is there no other way for the murderer to put the bodies in the hanging coffins? Is it possible that he climbed up from below? "
"Impossible!" Zhao Yu immediately told Miao Ying what Pang Zhihui had said.
"That's not necessarily true!" Miao Ying objected. "Have you heard of Stellio?"
"Huh? What's that? "Zhao Yu frowned.
"I can tell that you haven't climbed before!" Miao Ying pressed a few buttons on her phone and pulled up a picture from an online shopping page. "This thing is called a gecko rock climbing wedge. It's a fastener that can be used for climbing on smooth rock walls. The principle is similar to that of a gecko!"
"Meow meow …" Zhao Yu shook his head. "Let's not talk about geckos first. A person climbing a rock with a dead body on his back is dangerous in itself!"
"Hey!" Miao Ying shook her head. "Zhao Yu, you call yourself a detective! Can't you use your brain? Who said that the murderer had to carry a corpse while climbing?
"As long as a person climbs up, he can install a pulley from the hanging coffin and pull the body up!" Miao Ying said.
"I'm not a fool. Zhang Peipei's people and the technical team have confirmed it," Zhao Yu said, spreading his hands. "There are no traces of pulleys near the hanging coffins!"
"But in order to lift the corpse, the pulley doesn't have to be installed near the hanging coffin! You can use caves or the beams under the hanging coffins … "Miao Ying said.
"That makes sense!" Zhao Yu nodded and said, "And I have asked the technical team to check it again! But … "He smacked his lips and said," Do you know President Pang Zhihui?
That guy almost treats the Seven Stars Hanging Coffins like a treasure in his house. He said that he would go to the hanging coffins at least once a week to check them. Not only does he know the hanging coffins like the back of his hand, but he also knows the whole cliff like the back of his hand! Hmm … "Zhao Yu scratched his head." The phrase 'like the back of his hand' is used correctly, right?
Anyway, if there was anything wrong, he said he would have found it long ago! "
"What about the hanging coffins themselves?" Miao Ying asked again. "Is there any explanation? The murderer took such a big risk to put the corpse in the hanging coffins. I don't think it was just to cover it up, right? "
"Old Pang said," Zhao Yu said, pouring another glass of water. "The Seven Stars Hanging Coffins are a mystery among mysteries. Whether it is the official or the public, there has always been a blank slate!"
"Alas!" Miao Ying sighed. "Wuqing Mountain is so big. If you want to deal with a corpse, it would be too easy! But if you want to put the corpse in the hanging coffins, isn't it too risky? "
"Yes!" Zhao Yu nodded. "Old Pang said the same thing. On the east side of Wuqing Mountain, there are cave-style hanging coffins. There are more than 20 coffins stacked in one cave!
"If it was really to cover up the corpse, wouldn't it be safer to put it there? Moreover, the cave there is much easier to climb than the Seven Stars Hanging Coffins! "
"So …" Miao Ying frowned and thought deeply. "Cracking the mystery of the Seven Stars Hanging Coffins may also be a way for us to solve the case?"
"Don't worry!" Zhao Yu nodded. "I have asked the higher-ups to send experts in this field from all over the country to be consultants! When the time comes, let's hear what they have to say … "
"Hmm …" Seeing that Miao Ying was still frowning, Zhao Yu asked with concern, "Miao Miao … Are you okay? You don't look well? "
"Zhao Yu …" Miao Ying said with a solemn expression. "We have now confirmed the identity of the girl who disappeared a month and a half ago!" Miao Ying said. "It's impossible for a corpse to not rot after being placed in a hanging coffin for more than 40 days! But those corpses … "
"Come on, don't scare yourself!" Zhao Yu hurriedly explained. "The girl disappeared a month and a half ago, but that doesn't mean she was killed a month and a half ago! What if she was just put in the hanging coffin? "
"Then … Are all seven of them?" Miao Ying's eyes showed even more surprise. "All seven corpses are well preserved. Could it be that all seven girls were killed just now?"
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu thought for a moment and explained again, "Don't forget Li Fei of the Headless Female Corpses Case! If the murderer had embalmed these corpses, it might be possible! "
After saying this, the two of them looked at each other silently. They were both thinking deeply about this almost evil idea. Did the corpses in the hanging coffins not rot really have anything to do with the deaths of those girls?
"Hmm … Right! Don't just talk about me. "Zhao Yu waved his hand and asked," How are things on your side? "
"We have confirmed Geng Yaai's identity. She grew up in a single-parent family," Miao Ying said. "Before she disappeared, she had a big fight with her mother and ran away from home in the middle of the night! Then she never appeared again … "
"I have arranged for Wu Xiumin and Cui Lizhu to go to Bai Ping Town to investigate! Wu is an expert in this area, so it's best for her to contact the families! "
"Oh … But …" Zhao Yu looked worried. Since the treasure case had just ended, he felt that it was inappropriate for the two female comrades to go out of town to investigate the case.
"Don't worry!" Miao Ying had already guessed what Zhao Yu was thinking. "They are going with half of the criminal police team! In addition to understanding the situation with the families, they will also investigate the disappearance of the girls. If necessary, they will cooperate with the North Harbor Police! "
"Oh … That's good, that's good!" Zhao Yu was relieved and drank the second glass of water.
