Chapter 1725: Permanently Sealed
"This well is 5.5 meters deep, built with bricks and cement, and has a cylindrical shape with a diameter of 1.1 meters..." Wang Fei introduced, "A total of four male corpses were found from the well. Arranged in sequence, with obvious stratification.
"The further you go down, the older the bones are buried!"
"Layered?" Zhao Yu pointed to the water well model and said, "Can I understand this? Every time the murderer leaves a person behind, he will bury it with soil?"
"Not only soil, but also stones..." Wang Fei introduced, "The further down the bones, the more obvious the signs of damage!"
"Oh..." Zhao Yu somewhat understood why Wang Fei had to set up a model before examining the bones. It turned out that it was for him to understand the situation more intuitively.
"The time interval between each corpse is different," Wang Fei continued, "through soil analysis, we found that the first corpse in the deepest layer was buried about 5 years ago;
"The bones on the third floor are from 4 years ago;
"The second layer of bones was also 4 years ago, about half a year away from the third layer;
"The top corpse was 3 years ago.
"Among them..." Wang Fei indicated on the model, "The thickness of each soil layer is different, and the middle two are relatively thicker.
"Probably, it's because the two bones in the middle were buried at a similar time, and the bodies on the third floor hadn't completely decomposed at that time."
"Wait a minute..." At this point, Zhao Yu suddenly found a problem, and immediately pointed to the model and asked, "Is there no water in the well? It's buried so slippery, layer by layer?"
"There is no water," Wang Fei said. "Although the well is damp, most of it is rainwater seeping in. There is no obvious sign of soaking the bones!"
"Tsk tsk... When was this well built?" Zhao Yu asked, "It seems that there are no mountain villages and small towns in that area, right?"
"We're still doing tests," Wang Fei said, "but judging from the materials, it shouldn't be very old!"
"Indeed," Zhang Yaohui said, "the nearest village is 12 kilometers away from the incident. There are basically no roads there, and the location is very remote!"
"Then..." Zhao Yu asked again, "Has the identity of the corpse been found?"
"No...come...come with me!" Wang Fei opened the small door of the forensics department and led everyone to the autopsy room.
At this moment, on each of the four autopsy beds in the autopsy room, there is a corpse, which looks extremely scary.
"The corpse arrived late," Wang Fei continued, "we are extracting the DNA from the bones, and it will take some time.
"Based on the preliminary inspection," she pointed at the bones, "the four bones are all men in their 60s, and their heights are basically around 1.7 meters. Only the last body is a little shorter."
"Then... what is the cause of death?" Miao Ying asked.
Wang Fei shook his head and said: "The cause of death has not yet been ascertained. Some fragments and injuries were found on the bones, but they were probably caused by the extrusion of stones and soil after death."
Out of professional sensitivity, when Wang Fei was speaking, Zhang Peipei had already gone to the autopsy bed and was carefully observing the bones.
"Because the well is vertical, bones buried in this way are indeed very rare, and it is not easy to handle..." Wang Fei said frankly.
"By the way, Team Leader Zhao," Zhang Yaohui added, "We found ropes from the bones. We suspect that when the murderer buried the body, the deceased was tied up!"
"Also..." Wang Fei remembered something, and said hastily, "Judging from the posture in which the bones were excavated, the arms are pressed behind the back, and it should be that the hands were tied behind the back."
Hearing this information, Zhao Yu seemed to think of something, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it out.
"Then... what about the relics of the deceased?" Miao Ying asked again.
"Only some of the deceased's belongings were found,
Zhang Yaohui replied, "But no relics related to the identity of the deceased were found." "
"It's all here," Wang Fei pointed to the workbench in the distance. "The four people wear different clothes, but they are all ordinary, with no obvious unique characteristics. We are still in the process of testing."
Just as he was talking, a muscular laboratory technician in a white coat came out of the laboratory. When this person saw Zhao Yu, he immediately greeted Zhao Yu with unconcealed excitement:
"Hey, it's Brother Yu!"
Zhao Yu recognized at a glance that it was his former younger brother Hu Bin.
"Wow, you kid is still a laboratory technician?" Zhao Yu hurriedly stepped forward and slapped him.
"Hahaha... Where can I get promoted without you covering me?" Hu Bin said carelessly, "Okay brother, I still have a lot of work to do now, I'll catch up with you when I'm done!"
"Okay," Zhao Yu said, waving his hand, "I invite you to dinner tonight, you must go!"
"Well... this..." Hu Bin gave Wang Fei a timid look.
"Okay," Wang Fei waved his hand, "Detective Zhao will treat you to dinner, of course you are allowed to leave!"
"Then Section Chief Wang will join us tonight!" Zhao Yu invited, "Long time no see, let's catch up together!"
"I'd better forget it!" Wang Fei said, pointing to a table of evidence, "There must be someone staying here, as long as you play well, let's go to another day, another day I will invite you!"
"Okay, okay..." Zhao Yu shook hands with Section Chief Wang, then followed Zhang Yaohui out of the autopsy room and went to the office for handover work.
As soon as she entered the office, there was warm applause. Junior sister Li Beini presented Miao Ying with a bouquet of flowers, and said cheerfully:
"Warmly welcome brothers and sisters to come back with honor!"
The flowers were gorgeous and the applause was thunderous, which caught Miao Ying and the others by surprise.
"You're welcome, you're welcome...hehehe..." Zhao Yu pinched Li Beini's little face habitually, "Long time no see, little girl has grown flesh again! Hahaha..."
"Brother is really good at talking," Li Beini pouted, "I've obviously lost a few catties!"
"Oh, I'm really emotional, emotional!" Zhao Yu put his hands back and walked around in a dignified manner. Looking at the familiar working environment in the past and recalling the past events that happened here, he couldn't help feeling emotional, "Oh, , It feels so good to be home!
"Actually, it's been less than two years. Why does it feel like I've been away for a long time? Everything here is still the same!"
Zhao Yu said the same thing, but looking around the police officers in the room, he only knew Li Beini, Zhang Jingfeng and Zhang Yaohui. It means that things are different from people.
"Senior brother, look," Li Beini said, pointing to Zhao Yu's former desk, "after you became famous, this desk was permanently sealed by the police station, and no one else used it again!
"If you don't believe me, look through it, there are things you used before in the drawer!"
"Really?" Zhao Yu opened the drawer, and sure enough, he saw some files and notes he had used before.
"Sometimes police officers from other places come to our place for training, so they have to come and visit them specially!" Zhang Jingfeng hurriedly introduced.
"Really?" Zhao Yu glared at Zhang Jingfeng, "Why do I feel that you almost said the word 'visit' just now as 'visit'?"
"Really?" Zhang Jingfeng covered his heart, "I'm really old, I almost told the truth!"
"I see," Ran Tao, who was standing behind, took the opportunity to say, "The leader wants to seal up your table not to commemorate it, but because he is afraid that others will not be able to suppress it!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the office roared with laughter...
