At noon the next day, in the office of the special investigation group of the Rùng Branch …
"His family background is clean. There doesn't seem to be any problem …" Zeng Ke said to Zhao Yu, holding a document. "Zhang Xin's ancestral home is in Zhangjiaying. After he was born, his family moved to Yunzhou (where the Northwest Agricultural University of Longxi Province is located)."
Miao Ying said, "Although Professor Zhang is very familiar with Tuoshan, this is the first time he has been to the mountain where the well is located.
The expedition team said that the main purpose of this expedition is to study a new species called the Tuoshan Phoenix-Winged Butterfly, which only exists in Tuoshan. "
"I checked the internal information of the university," Zeng Ke said. "Professor Zhang is the only entomologist in the university. This expedition was not initiated by him, but was arranged by the university's teaching and research group."
"I also looked at the students one by one," Miao Ying said. "There doesn't seem to be any problem with them! The discovery of the well's skeleton was probably just a coincidence. "
"Alright …" Zhao Yu waved his hand and said, "Then let them continue to study the butterfly!"
"Hehe, the study of the butterfly is definitely not going to be successful," Zeng Ke said. "Who would dare to camp there when there is a corpse in the mountain? The project has been canceled … "
Then, Zeng Ke went to inform Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu walked to the whiteboard, put an X on the column of the expedition team, and began to add more information.
"The portrait expert has arrived in Qinshan and is on his way to the police station," Miao Ying said. "After all, he's here to help. When he arrives, you, as the team leader of the special investigation team, have to meet him. Be polite."
"Got it." Zhao Yu stared at the whiteboard and said, "You should help me with some social engagements! I want to think about it … I feel like I have overlooked something. "
"Alright!" Miao Ying shrugged helplessly, then turned and left the office.
Sigh …
Zhao Yu sighed. In fact, judging from the hexagram that morning, he almost knew that there should be no problem with the expedition team.
This was because he had gotten a "Zhenli" hexagram that day. He hadn't even gotten a "Gen" hexagram, which meant that it would be difficult for the investigation to make any substantial progress.
While the police officers were asking the expedition team about the situation, he was also carefully observing from a distance, and indeed, he did not find any problems.
All the members of the expedition team behaved normally.
After ruling out the expedition team, they could only pin their hopes on Yu Rantao and Wu Xiumin. If they could find the relationship between the two victims, they might be able to find out the identity of the other two skeletons, understand their past, and unearth the murderer.
However, since Ba Hongxue and Wang Pengyi were dead, it would not be easy to conduct a detailed investigation. Therefore, there would not be any new information for a while.
Zhao Yu pondered in his office for a long time. In the end, he decided to go to the forensics department to see if Zhang Peipei could find anything new.
He believed that even if the DNA of the last two bodies could not be compared, he could at least find some clues from the remains.
A few minutes later, Zhao Yu arrived at the Forensics Department and saw that Zhang Peipei was still working hard.
"How is it? Any new developments?" Zhao Yu went straight to the point. As the team leader of the special investigation team, what other purpose could he have in the forensics department?
"Through the identification," Zhang Peipei said seriously, "the possibility of the four victims being buried alive is very high.
"Look …" She led Zhao Yu to the photo wall and pointed to one of the photos of the skeletons. "The teeth of the deceased are carnation, which is a typical feature of suffocation.
"Also, there is a rose color at the root of the teeth, which is also a typical feature of mechanical asphyxia.
"In addition, we checked the position of the rope and the skeletons, and found that the deceased had been folded and tied backwards." Zhang Peipei pointed to another photo. "This posture is to tie the hands and feet of the deceased together. This is to prevent the deceased from standing upright, which makes it easier for them to be buried alive!
"Also, although the skeletons have become white bones, we still detected clay mixed with saliva in the respiratory tract of the deceased.
"In addition, we did not detect any other fatal injuries, nor did we find any poisoning factors. Therefore, the probability of the four victims being buried alive is more than 95%."
"Um … I think so too." Zhao Yu had guessed the cause of death from the beginning. He looked at the autopsy photos carefully and asked, "So … Are there any new findings on the skeletons?"
"On the skeletons of the four corpses, we found signs of old injuries that had already healed," Zhang Peipei said. "These old injuries were mostly found on their ribs and upper arm bones. Among them, there were signs of a fracture healing on the bridge of the nose of the third corpse, and there were no incisors found on the fourth corpse.
"Also, some of the injuries were superimposed, which means that they had been injured many times."
"Oh?" Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows and muttered, "This means that these people were not easy to deal with! How could a normal person have so many injuries? "
"Yes," Zhang Peipei said seriously. "They were professional or professional athletes."
"Athletes?" The answer was obviously out of Zhao Yu's expectation. He widened his eyes and asked, "I wanted to say that they were professional fighters!"
"Professional fighters? Gangsters? "This time, it was Zhang Peipei's turn to be surprised.
"They could also be professional gamblers or cheaters," Zhao Yu said. "These people have a much higher chance of fracture than athletes."
"Well … You really know a lot!" Zhang Peipei was speechless.
Zhao Yu thought to himself, I used to do this before I came to this world. How could I not know?
"Dr. Zhang," Zhao Yu said. "Can you give me a report of their old injuries? I'll analyze it."
"Okay."
"Then …" Zhao Yu looked at the other photos and asked, "What about the belongings of the deceased? Are there any items that can prove their identities? "
"So far, nothing has been found," Zhang Peipei said. "No wallets, watches, mobile phones, or other valuables were found. I guess they were taken by the murderer.
"The condition of the clothes is not very good. The deceased was buried in wet and acidic soil for a long time. Except for the leather belt and rubber products, the other clothes were seriously corroded."
"The belt and shoes …" Zhao Yu thought for a moment and said, "Send me the photos of all the items!"
"They are all here!" Zhang Peipei took a folder and said, "I was going to find someone to send them to you!"
"Number one, Ba Hongxue, is at the top." Zhao Yu took the folder and walked to the whiteboard of the Forensics Department. He said, "Number two, Wang Pengyi …"
"Number three and four are unknown …" Zhao Yu thought for a moment. "You just said that number three's nose was broken, and number four doesn't have front teeth, right?"
"Yes." Zhang Peipei nodded and added, "I'm working on a detailed report on number three and four. When I'm done, I'll send it to you immediately!"
"Okay, send it to Ran Tao and Wu Xiumin at the same time. They are visiting and investigating. Any characteristics of the deceased may provide help in finding the identity of the deceased!"
"Okay, I'll be done right away!" Zhang Peipei nodded.
