"Woof woof woof …"
Just as Zhao Yu was about to enter the door, a big wolfdog suddenly appeared in front of him, giving Zhao Yu a fright.
Fortunately, the big dog was leashed by a police officer. The police officer pulled the leash and immediately pulled the big dog to the side, away from the crowd.
"Hey, hey, hey, can't you watch it?" Li Yanxia was unhappy. "Don't let it bite people again!"
The police officer with the dog didn't say anything. He just made an apologetic gesture to Captain Li and quickly walked away with the dog.
"It's okay, it's okay …" Captain Li quickly explained to the two of them, "This is a police dog from the crime squad. It was specially sent to search the Yu family's old house."
"Don't say …" Zhao Yu said to Miao Ying. "Look at this dog! It looks like Daheng! His size and appearance are about the same. If I had known earlier, I would have brought Tycoon out for a stroll! "
"Come on, this is a standard police dog!" Miao Ying shook her head and said, "Daheng has been fed by your mother. If you don't train, you'll be wasted!"
"That's true …" Zhao Yu thought of his Tycoon and couldn't help but sigh. For a long time, he had been so busy that he had completely neglected the dog tycoon.
Even though the tycoon was an expert in history and literature, he had helped him solve many cases in the past. It was indeed inappropriate to bury him in his hometown like this.
Thus, Zhao Yu silently made up his mind. After this case was over, he would return to Qinshan and find a way to send Daheng to the police dog team, so that it could improve its qualities and serve the police team!
"Hmm … Who is Tycoon? Is it also your police dog? "Captain Li asked curiously.
However, Zhao Yu had no intention of answering. He had already walked straight into the courtyard of the Yu Family's old house.
At that moment, the situation in the courtyard was different from what Zhao Yu had imagined. He saw a group of police officers digging something in the courtyard. They had already dug three or four big pits in the courtyard.
"Oh …" Captain Li quickly explained, "This was a decision made by the Criminal Police Unit before you came. We wanted to see if there was anything buried in the yard …"
Hmm …
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, but he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
Because, before he could check the situation in the courtyard, the ground had already been dug up. This was very likely to cause him to miss some clues.
However, there was nothing wrong with what the local criminal police team did. After all, the Special Investigation Group had only received the notification one day after the incident.
Before this, the case was handled by the local criminal police, so digging up the ground was completely in line with the procedure. Moreover, before digging, the technical team had already searched and collected evidence, so they shouldn't have missed anything.
"It's a pity …" Captain Li Yanxia saw Zhao Yu looking at the yard in a daze and said helplessly, "So far, nothing has been dug out! It seems that the suspect did not bury the body here. "
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu looked around the yard and asked Captain Li, "Did you find any signs of living in the house?"
Following Zhao Yu's question, the three of them turned towards the gloomy old three-story building.
"No, no!" Captain Li replied. "We've searched all the houses, including the basement and cellar. They're all deserted. We didn't find any signs of people living here!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu pondered and said, "In other words, the suspect who set up the bones doesn't live here at all. He just found a house here …"
"If I want to live … I can only live in the same room as White Bones, right? But … "Captain Li said with a complicated expression," You'll know when you see the scene. In that room, other than the table where the bones were placed, there was no bed.
"If you want to live there, I'm afraid you can only sleep on the floor!"
After saying this, Li Yanxia was shocked by her own words. Sleeping with bones? No matter how she thought about it, it was creepy.
As they spoke, the three of them entered the hall on the first floor of the old house. As the door and windows were covered with plants, the light in the hall was very dim.
In the hall, there were several members of the technical team who were carefully searching for something. When they saw Zhao Yu and the other two, someone immediately handed them shoe covers and gloves.
After changing, Zhao Yu didn't observe much, but followed Captain Li straight up the stairs to the second floor.
In the meantime, Captain Li told them what happened that night based on what happened on the spot.
Not long after, Zhao Yu finally saw the horrible room. The room was facing the stairway on the second floor. No wonder the burglar chose this room when he came up that night.
The door still looked like it had been smashed open by the burglar.
Although there was a chill in his heart, Zhao Yu was an experienced and knowledgeable detective. Naturally, he wasn't afraid, so he immediately walked in.
However, perhaps it was a psychological effect, but the moment Zhao Yu entered, he instinctively felt a chill on his cheeks. The hairs on his back stood on end.
There were three windows in the room, but all of them were nailed with wooden planks. This made the room dark and gloomy, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Let me …" At this time, Captain Li walked around the altar in the room and came to the depths of the room. He reached out and opened a small door.
As the sunlight shone in, the room became clear.
Oh …
After seeing the furnishings in the room, even though Zhao Yu was mentally prepared, he was still shocked. He felt goosebumps all over his body.
It was a small rectangular room. In the middle of the room, there was a wooden platform. It looked like a coffin, but it also looked like a sacrificial altar.
The altar was covered with a thick and huge plastic sheet. According to the photos taken at the scene, the pile of bones was placed on top of the plastic sheet.
Next to the altar, there were either scary ghost faces, masks, or messy talismans. It was decorated like a sacrificial ground of a primitive tribe.
The ground was scattered with ashes, burnt paper, and other miscellaneous things.
There were many ropes hanging from the ceiling of the room. Some ropes were tied with hooks, while others were tied with cow horns, goat horns, and hair of some animals.
In addition, there were many candlesticks nailed to the walls of the room. All of them had thick and long red candles on them.
"The forensics team has taken some of the samples for testing," Captain Li said. "These are the rest. Here …" He pointed to the altar in the center. "The bones were placed here!
If it weren't for the coroner, we wouldn't have been able to tell that it wasn't a human skeleton! "
"Captain Li," Zhao Yu frowned and asked, "did the forensics team really not find any fingerprints from here?"
"Yes!" Li Yanxia replied affirmatively. "They only found footprints, but not fingerprints. The forensics experts from the special investigation group also looked for them, but they didn't find any. "
"Then tell me about the footprints!" Although Zhao Yu had read the information about footprints before, he wanted to hear Captain Li's report first.
"Those are footprints of sneakers, on both feet …" Captain Li recalled. "According to the footprints, the suspect's height is between 1.65 and 1.70 meters. Looking at the style, it's very likely to be a male, but we can't rule out the possibility that it's a female. "
"There are footprints, but no fingerprints …" Miao Ying was slightly stunned. "That's a little strange …"
"Phew …"
Zhao Yu took a deep breath, then began to carefully sniff the room. In addition to the stale and damp smell in the room, the most obvious smell was the special smell of burning candles.
Zhao Yu sniffed carefully, then opened the small door and walked out of the room.
Outside the room was a long balcony that ran through the second floor of the bungalow.
