Chapter 771: Botanists

Botanists have established a group, and the chat is quite lively.

In the group, everyone discusses work content, chats, posts pictures, forwards jokes, forwards news, eats melons, throws away links, scolds retarded leaders and policies, and exchanges new views on world issues and historical issues...

Obviously, since it is a group of biologists, just like ordinary organisms, everyone tries not to talk about work.

It is not easy to find the corpse through changes in the natural environment. Although Jiang Yuan easily dug out several tombs, it took several days to find them with certain directions, based on LV4's forensic botany.

On that day, Qi Changye determined the location where Teqing disappeared. Although it was only in one direction and the area was vast, it had a certain range after all. Jiang Yuan dug through the most easily determined locations within the range, and left the leftovers to a group of scholars with less than LV1 forensic botany to study. Naturally, the results were not that smooth.

It is equivalent to an expert handsome guy spending a few days to seduce the girls in a dormitory. Finally, the girls who can't be swayed are left to his classmates who are single, have ordinary looks, average family background, average height, not good at talking, and don't like to dress up. , a boy who has neither fashion sense nor food and clothing, poor sports ability, little self-confidence, and can't let go of his face.

The enthusiasm of the more than twenty male botanists in this class was exhausted in just a few days.

Jiang Yuan returned to the office, scanned the group, and had an idea.

Soon, Jiang Yuan directly changed the group announcement:

Announcement: [Everyone, in the next two days, we will conduct a trial excavation of the locations marked by everyone. If there are any locations you want to mark, please send them to me via private message. The test excavation is expected to take two to three days. 】

Jiang Yuan estimated that everyone had marked some locations.

The delay of the past few days will certainly make people feel a bit boring, but since you are a botanist, are you still worried about being boring?

Ding dong.

Sure enough, in just a moment, Jiang Yuan's cell phone rang.

Marking a location and having the police check whether there are any remains is quite exciting in itself.

Jiang Yuan opened a WeChat message and saw that there were locations, marks, pictures, and a lot of text descriptions explaining why he chose this place.

The appearance of a pure teacher and a good student.

Jiang Yuan immediately responded with a thumbs up expression.

In the evening, Jiang Yuan went to look again. A group of almost 20 botanists gave 78 marked locations.

It can be seen that everyone's hobbies are different. Among them, the botanist who marked the most locations marked a total of 9 locations, which was more than Jiang Yuan marked. And his proficiency in forensic botany is far inferior to Jiang Yuan's.

It is conceivable that Professor Zhao Yan is really interested in this area.

Jiang Yuan briefly sorted out these 78 marked locations.

He mainly looked to see if there were any obviously buried corpses. If it's a place like this, you have to deal with it early, not only to prevent a long night of nightmares, but also to check and fill in the gaps for yourself.

However, no.

LV4's forensic botany is overwhelming to these botanists who are just getting started. Although these botanists may be able to reach LV1 or LV2 after a short period of study and practice, at this time, the difference between them and Jiang Yuan is like the difference between Jiang Yuan and Wang Zhong in trace science. The difference is the same.

However, the participation of botanists is still very meaningful. Satisfying the botanists' curiosity was only the first step. Digging up the corpses was Jiang Yuan's bait and nest for them.

After that, as long as botanists are willing to slowly get involved, there will naturally be much more that can be done.

"Cui Da, I will send you the marked location. You can send someone to see if the body can be found." Jiang Yuan called Cui Qishan. This was also the arrangement that Tao Lu had already made.

Cui Qishan immediately responded. He looked at his phone and was startled. He said cautiously: "Even 78 corpses in the capital are too many. Let's..."

"It's just 78 suspected locations, not 78 corpses." Jiang Yuan smiled.

Cui Qishan did not laugh: "Last time, you only gave us a few places and dug out 6 corpses."

"Those places were selected, the best of the best..." Jiang Yuan paused, and then said: "These 78 places were not chosen by me, but by the botanists."

"It was the same last time... So how many places did you personally select?"

"No, they were chosen by botanists."

On the other end of the phone, Cui Qishan visibly breathed a sigh of relief and said more relaxedly: "That's okay. It's not that I can't accept finding the body, but such a big case is really a bit too stressful."

Although Jiang Yuan and others were in danger on the front line, the policemen at the rear were not idle either.

Even those who are not on the task force actually bear more pressure. In the county town, a murder case can suppress the overall situation. Faced with so many corpses in the main square, it is not much better.

"That's right." Before hanging up, Cui Qishan asked again, "Can we hire someone to dig it? If there are 78 holes, we can dig them ourselves until next year."

"It should be ok. You can create another group. Every time you dig a location, throw some pictures and videos into the group so that botanists can take a look and learn from it." Jiang Yuan still attaches great importance to user experience.

Cui Qishan responded, and Xiao Si quickly formed a group.

After working as a police officer for a long time, I have a natural aversion to groups, because there are too many of them. Almost every case needs a separate group to communicate. It is even normal for a case to have multiple groups. And it is normal for criminal police to be responsible for multiple cases at the same time.

For captains like Cui Qishan, it is a daily routine to shuttle between multiple special task forces at the same time. Even if a special task force for homicide is established in the branch, the special task force originally established for serious injury or burglary cannot be revoked.

For most cases, the investigation stage is only the early stage. The mid-term case handling process, including fixing evidence and interrogation, until the inspection stage, may take more time.

Therefore, in addition to the groups between police officers, there should also be groups between police officers and the victims' families, and between police officers and witnesses.

Xiao Si created a group and pulled Jiang Yuan into the group without hesitation, and then pulled Cui Qishan into the group.

Cui Qishan: [No need to pull me...]

But seeing that Jiang Yuan was also in the group, Cui Qishan was embarrassed to quit after all.

Xiao Si then pulled Li Jiang, Wang Chao and others into the group, followed by a group of botanists.

Xiao Si: [This is the live broadcast of corpse digging organized by the Zhengguang Bureau. Everyone adds the school in front of their name. ]

Wang Bin from Agricultural University: [? ]

Zhao Tan from University of Science and Technology: [Is it the corpse of Jiang Yuan that was dug? It's a bit exciting. ]

Pang Shiqiang from University of Science and Technology: [What is the order of digging? ]

Su Lei from the Agricultural Research Institute: [What was the result of the corpse that was dug out before? Has the case been solved? ]

Seeing this, Xiao Si quickly replied:

[The previous case is still confidential, so don't discuss it. If you know about it, keep it confidential. Well, this case is also confidential, including the content discussed in the group. Don't leak it, don't take screenshots, and everyone should be responsible for themselves. ]

After he said this, the group suddenly became much quieter.

Before, everyone was willing to chat in the group, but that was because botanists from different schools had common hobbies and were willing to talk about topics such as politics and history.

Now that they have switched to a group with more policemen, everyone has simply shut up.

However, as the excavation work began at the first marked location, the group gradually became lively.

Zhao Tian from HKUST: [Is this the location I chose? Sure, let's see what we can dig out. ]

Pang Shiqiang from the University of Science and Technology: [Professor Zhao's choice is pretty good. ]

Zhao Tian from HKUST: [ x-on:Forensic pathologist Jiang Yuan, what do you think? Can it be found? ]

Jiang Yuan did not answer immediately, and the experts and professors below expressed their opinions one after another.

Some said yes, some said no, some gave reasons, and some just made bets.

When Jiang Yuan came back from his busy schedule and looked at the group again, the excavation team had just dug up the plants on the surface, and there were hundreds of messages in the group.

Cui Qishan also came over at this time, and deliberately rushed to Jiang Yuan's office, and said with a smile: "Your botanists are guessing whether the body can be found."

"If you guess, it's definitely not possible." Jiang Yuan silently closed the novel page on the computer, opened the computer version of WeChat and took a look, typing away, and said: "It's just right, I'll tell them."

"What to tell?"

"Theory, why the body was not found at the location." Jiang Yuan answered while typing.

Cui Qishan looked at Jiang Yuan's expression seriously and found that what he said seemed real, not like acting.
