Chapter 2360: Square
"Yes, yes," Zhao Yu said to Miao Ying on the phone in the police car speeding across the snow, "Report to the Criminal Department immediately and ask them to send someone to help! The latest case has appeared, and there is definitely not enough manpower...
"Also, the full name of martial law, you and the leaders of the city are deliberating. I think that for the time being, we should focus on strengthening protection. If martial law is rashly imposed, I am afraid it will cause panic!
"Hmmmmmmmm... I don't worry if you handle the matter. You can do it as you see fit. I'll go to the scene now..." Zhao Yu said, "Yes, forensic doctors are also scarce. If not, let's get some from Xinbin. !
"Hey! I'm so scared, what I was most worried about happened!
"Hmm... um... I understand, I understand..." Zhao Yu said, "I know, I haven't seen any big winds and waves before, so I won't lose my footing!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yu took a deep breath.
"On the same day, two female corpses appeared under the bridge. This...how can this be done!" With the maximum heating in the car, Captain Qiu said as if shivering, "Forget it!" Yesterday's... three cases, how could they be so close together?
"It's like growing mushrooms, one side hasn't been picked yet, and another side has popped up! Is it the mushrooms after the rain?"
"Don't panic!" Zhao Yu comforted, "The corpse may have been hanging there a long time ago, but it was discovered relatively late.
"Let's talk about it first, where is the latest case?"
"Hali Hali Village," Captain Qiu said nervously, "this village is all ethnic minorities, and it's in the west of the urban area!
"Just now, the village committee conducted a special inspection after receiving the notice, and found it under a small bridge in the east of the village..."
"What? West?" Zhao Yu immediately thought of something when he heard it. He quickly opened the phone map and checked it carefully.
Curious, Xi Mengna looked sideways, but saw that Zhao Yu had already marked the locations of the previous cases on the map.
"I strangled a grandma bear!" Zhao Yu swallowed, pointed to the map and said, "Look, the first case is in Donglitiao Village, which is the east of the city!
"The second one is Baiqi Town, just south of Manzhou!
"The third town of Meihexing is just north of the city!
"Now, there's another one here... What's the matter, Zhengxi, Zhengxi!" Zhao Yu's eyes widened suddenly, "East, south, north, and west are all occupied. From the map, it just happens to be a square." ! That's right!"
"No...no no no..." Captain Qiu said while scratching his hair, "You...you have confused me! Wasn't the incident at the No. 3 Oil Production Factory also in the south? Are there two incidents in the south?"
"No," Simona said, "Our team leader suspects that someone might have imitated the case of the No. 3 Oil Production Factory!"
"Ah?" Captain Qiu was even more frantic with shock, "Imitation... imitation, committing a crime, is there such a trick? Guan... The key is, how long has this case not happened?
"Only our police internally know the specific situation of the crime scene, who...who will imitate?"
"Our team leader suspects," Simona told the truth, "when the case happened in Baiqi Town, some people were watching the scene, saw the scene, and then imitated it!
"Also, this person is probably from the factory, a colleague of that Chi Meixin..."
"Oh... oh..." Captain Qiu suddenly realized, "No wonder you asked me for the video of the scene just now!
"Fortunately, we recorded it at the time, but...but..." He said again worriedly, "Our criminal investigation here is not very professional, I don't know how Xiao Liu recorded it!
"If the optical recording site,
If you don’t record the onlookers, then it’s over…”
"Don't talk so much just now," Zhao Yu asked, "What happened to the corpse just discovered?"
"It's not close there. I've already sent the closest people there, and now we can get there!" Captain Qiu said, "According to the villagers who found the body, the body was also a woman, but because it was too cold, I can't get there for the time being." Can't tell if it's domestic or foreign!
"I told them, let them protect the site and wait for our people to pass!" Captain Qiu said, "Hali Hali Village is a well-known well-off village, and the villagers are educated, so they will definitely protect the site! "
Yeah?
Zhao Yu frowned tightly, thinking of something already in his mind.
"Zhao... Well, Team Leader Zhao," Simona couldn't help asking, "Is there any way to explain the positive direction you just mentioned? Could this be some kind of religious ceremony?"
"This is what worries me the most since I came to Manzhou," Zhao Yu said, "I always feel that the murderer's purpose is not only to complete the murder, but may have other purposes!"
"That's right," Simona said with her brows furrowed, "If there are so many bridges just for killing people, which one should I choose? Do I have to choose one each for the southeast, the north, and the west?"
"Tsk tsk..." Looking at the map, Zhao Yu also fell into a new thought. Now that everything is in order, then, next, will the murderer attack again?
Has he already completed his mission, or...or will he choose a new place?
...
From the south of the city to the west of the city, they happened to pass a highway leading to Meng Township. By this highway, Zhao Yu and others arrived at Halihali Village in just over 30 minutes.
When they arrived, the first police officers had also arrived at the scene and were setting up a cordon.
Several local villagers wearing herdsmen's clothing were reporting something to the police.
"If we hadn't come out to inspect, no one would leave this bridge until the snow melted!" said a gray-bearded herdsman, "To tell you the truth, even if you really cross the bridge, it's hard to see what's going on under the bridge." the situation!
"Look..." He walked on both sides of the ditch, "There are no riversides on both sides. We pass here and all go straight from the bridge. Who would look down and look under the bridge?"
When Zhao Yu came to Xiaoqiao, unexpectedly, he heard the sound of running water.
"Why!?"
He hurried to the river and looked down, only to see that the river was not completely frozen, the ice to the right was actually cracked, and water flowed through it...
"This..." Captain Qiu was also surprised, and hurriedly asked the herders, "Why is there still water here?"
"Oh...there is an underground spring in Alxa, and the spring water is warm," the old man said, pointing to the water. Completely frozen, only some flowed under the ice..."
While the old man was talking, Zhao Yu had already seen that although there was still water flowing on the ice, the water was not rushing and did not affect most of the ice.
So he quickly put on his foot gloves and went down under the bridge.
This small bridge is the shortest one, and because there are piers under the bridge, it looks extremely narrow and dark. Moreover, there is a lot of plastic garbage piled up under the bridge, as well as the smelly mud that is melted by warm water!
The frozen corpse hangs in the center under the bridge, because of the light problem, it is really difficult to find it outside.
With just a glance at the scene, Zhao Yu was able to confirm that the murder in front of him was definitely the same murderer as the previous murder under the bridge!
Whether it was the expansion tube, the collar or the knot, they were all neat and neat, and there were no traces left on the ground. At first glance, it was obviously different from the case in the No. 3 Oil Production Plant.
It's just...
When Zhao Yu came to the corpse, he actually smelled a rotting corpse...
