On the Jing River, the boat was sailing against the current.
The sun was shining brightly, and the scenery was beautiful.
Zhao Yu and the others were on a boat that the police station had specially rented for them.
At that moment, Ran Tao and the others were barbecuing on the deck. Most of the fish were from Jing River.
The forensic doctor, Guo Fengzhan, was wearing a sunhat and sitting on one side of the deck, fishing leisurely with his hunch.
On the entire deck, only Zhao Yu was standing on the bow, looking at the situation on both sides of the river.
"Boss!" Cui Lizhu came up to him with a skewer of grilled fish. "I thought you had some special trick up your sleeve! It turns out that you were just admiring the river! "
"Alas, that's not true!" Zhao Yu took the grilled fish and said seriously, "I'm not here to play!
"Su Ruohua was washed downstream, so I naturally have to find her drifting route!" Zhao Yu removed the fish bones and said seriously, "Only by seeing it with my own eyes can I understand the case better and get some inspiration!"
A warm breeze blew over the river, making them feel very comfortable.
"Cui," Zhao Yu pointed to the bow and said, "Do you want to experience the feeling of being on the Titanic? Come on? Let me hug you? "
"Save it!" Cui Lizhu squinted her eyes in contempt. "Sister Miao isn't here, so you're getting carried away again. Why don't you ask your little Nana to come over and hug you?"
"Oh? Are you jealous? " Zhao Yu pointed to Xi Mengna in the distance. "I recently discovered that little Nana is very gluttonous. Why didn't I notice this before?"
The two of them turned around and saw that Xi Mengna was holding no less than ten skewers of grilled fish in her hands, but she was still fighting for the oysters that Ran Tao had just roasted.
Cui Lizhu was speechless for a few seconds, then wiped her sweat and said, "I really envy her for not getting fat no matter how much she eats! I guess there must be something wrong with her digestive system! "
"Spit, spit …" Although Zhao Yu had removed the fish bones, he still got pricked by the fish bones. He sighed and said, "It's so troublesome to spit out the bones to eat fish!"
"Boss," Cui Lizhu pointed at the beautiful river and said, "The forensic doctors estimated that the frozen Su Ruohua was in the river for at least a few hours, and we're swimming against the current …"
"The river is flowing, so why do I feel like I'm trying to find a sword by carving a boat?"
"F * ck!" Zhao Yu complained. "I told you, I'm here for inspiration! Do you think we can solve the case by sitting on a boat? "
Cui Lizhu then said, "We have considered several possibilities. One is that the murderer threw the body into the river from the boat, and the other is that he threw the body from the shore.
"We've already checked so many ships. Can we rule out the former?"
"We can't rule it out completely!" Zhao Yu sighed. "Jing River is so big, so how could they possibly check all the boats?
"Besides, there aren't many places with surveillance cameras. What if the murderer has already stopped the boat before the surveillance cameras capture him?"
"Um …" Cui Lizhu said. "But, it seems more likely that they dumped the body from the shore.
"You see …" She pointed to a residential area by the river. "There are residential areas on both sides of Jing River. It's impossible to investigate all of them!"
"What I'm thinking about now isn't where the murderer threw the body into the river from." Zhao Yu turned to look at the river and said, "But, why did the murderer throw the body into the river?"
"Um …" Cui Lizhu followed Zhao Yu's train of thought and guessed, "Because the murderer had a terminal illness and was about to die, so he couldn't take care of the frozen Su Ruohua anymore …"
"Then …" Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't he dig a hole and bury the body?"
"This …" Cui Lizhu didn't know what to say.
"Think about it. It's been 34 years!" Zhao Yu said. "The murderer sealed Su Ruohua in ice for 34 years. This person must have been obsessed with Su Ruohua.
How could he bear to throw her into the river?
Even if he just put the frozen Su Ruohua anywhere, it would be better than throwing her into the river, right? "
"We … Um … We seemed to have discussed this countless times before." Cui Lizhu thought of something and said, "Besides the murderer having a terminal illness, there was also the possibility of the cold storage being demolished or an accident happening.
For example, the place where he froze Su Ruohua needed to be demolished. In order to prevent Su Ruohua from being exposed, he … "
Cui Lizhu couldn't continue.
"What do you think?" Zhao Yu asked. "Isn't it illogical? If he didn't want Su Ruohua to be exposed, why would he throw her into the river?
Did he think that the frozen Su Ruohua would sink to the bottom of the river? "
"No …" Cui Lizhu shook her head and said, "The murderer knows about hydroxyethyl substances and has such advanced freezing knowledge. It's impossible that he didn't have such common sense …"
"If that's the case, then the only possibility left is that it was an accident."
Zhao Yu took a few more bites of the grilled fish and said, "The Xiaoyao Mountain incident confused us at first, but it proved that Sun Guodong had a purpose!"
"Yes," Cui Lizhu said. "Sun Guodong confessed that when they were planting Ganoderma together, they often took shelter from the rain in that cave. So, it had a special meaning to them!"
"Also, he put the victim in the cave to divert the police's attention and make us forget that the prison was near the foot of the mountain …"
"But …" Cui Lizhu pointed at the river. "Why did the murderer of the Frozen Female Corpses Case throw Su Ruohua into the river?
Could it be that there was a special meaning to it? Or … was he trying to divert our attention? "
"Mm …" Zhao Yu nodded slightly and fell into deep thought.
As for the murderer's purpose of dumping the body, there seemed to be many possibilities!
So, in order to solve the case, he could only start from a variety of aspects.
For example, since he suspected that dumping the body had something to do with the cold storage, he had to investigate whether there were any recent demolitions on both sides of Jing River.
Also, since he suspected that there might be a special meaning to it, he had to investigate Su Ruohua's friends to see if there was any connection between Su Ruohua and Jing River.
Secondly, if the murderer really wanted to divert our attention, then … What was he trying to hide?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu was no longer in the mood to eat the grilled fish. He stood at the bow of the boat with half a skewer of grilled fish in his hand and fell into deep thought.
Cui Lizhu knew that she couldn't ask any useful questions, so she just kept quiet and stood there to enjoy the view of the river.
The sky was clear and the waves were rippling.
The warm wind was blowing, making people feel comfortable.
The willows on the shore were upside down, and the boats were lying horizontally. It reminded people of the famous saying, "A thousand sails pass by the side of a sinking boat, and ten thousand trees stand in front of a sick tree."
"Hey?"
Just then, Zhao Yu suddenly exclaimed, as if he had thought of something.
"Boss?" Cui Lizhu's eyes widened and she asked, "What's wrong? What did you think of? "
"Lil Cui," Zhao Yu turned around and looked at the stern of the boat, "I remember that there was a thousand-year-old temple at the place where the frozen female corpse was found."
