Chapter 571 The Identity of the Bones Remains a Mystery

When we arrived at the provincial office, the leader was already waiting. The other party was very unkind. Fang Songping happened to be there and made a small report.

So in the office, Chen Yi had to face three people.

Wei Jianfeng.

Deputy director in charge.

Fang Songping.

There are four people in four levels, from high to low.

The deputy director kept a dark face. After Chen Yi arrived, he asked him to repeat what he just said on the phone in front of Fang Songping.

Can Chen Yi endure this? He said directly: "Okay, I'm really not sure about the time. Don't worry, the Criminal Investigation Detachment will do their best to investigate Bai Gu's identity. Even if she is a gangster, I will find her out."

Deputy Director: "That's not what you said just now, right Jianfeng?"

Wei Jianfeng pretended to be choked, coughed, and did not answer.

Of course, calling Chen Yi here wasn't just for a word of questioning. The provincial department was not that busy yet. They wanted to understand and discuss what to do if the identity of the bones could not be determined.

Everyone knew Chen Yi's abilities, and even the identity of the deceased was not known for seven days, which shows that the difficulty has reached a very high level, and there is a possibility that the file will be sealed in the future.

This matter may become an eternal mystery.

"Isn't it too early to say this now?" Chen Yi looked at the three of them.

Fang Songping said: "You are not sure anymore, right? Today I went to the provincial government to hold a small meeting, and I mentioned the sudden appearance of bones on the island in the middle of the lake. In short, this is not as simple as a criminal case, and everyone is paying attention. "

Chen Yi: "I don't care about the rest. To me, it's just a criminal case. What Fang Ting just said is right. I'm really not sure. I'll depend on my luck if I check further, but...this case has more than just bones. There is only one clue. "

Fang Songping: "Are you referring to the person who placed the bones?"

Chen Yi shook his head: "No, what I want to say is the follow-up. It is impossible for this person to let the bones appear in the sight of the police for no reason. If the police cannot find the identity of the bones for a long time, what is the point?"

The three of them pondered.

Yes, the person who placed the bones should know a lot and would not sit back and let the police seal the case.

"You continue talking." Fang Songping said.

Chen Yi said: "I have thought about it carefully. The person who placed the bones must know the identity of the bones, otherwise he would not have gone to such trouble. Since he knew, why not tell the police? Even if you don't want to reveal your identity, you can still add a mark on the bones. A note with the name of the deceased written on it.

There are many ways.

But the other party did not do this, and simply made the bones public to the world, so I think there must be a follow-up. "

Wei Jianfeng: "Isn't this a conspiracy? A conspiracy against someone."

Chen Yi: "It's possible, maybe the person who targeted the murderer of the deceased is the one who did not call the police and confess to the police because he was not sure and wanted to investigate with the police, or follow the police and get something for nothing."

Wei Jianfeng's eyes were solemn: "You don't want to take revenge yourself, do you?"

Chen Yi: "Who knows, it's all just speculation. The investigation has not reached a dead end yet. Don't worry, several leaders. If the end is really reached, I will tell the provincial department directly."

The three of them knew the difficulty of investigating this case and did not put any more pressure on Chen Yi.

The identity of the bones is difficult, and finding the murderer who smashed the back of the deceased's head is even more difficult. After so many years, things have changed.

Chen Yi returned to the city bureau and entered the forensic room.

Fang Shuyu was busy, bending down to brush carefully.

In front of him, a white skeleton lay quietly on the autopsy table. His identity and cause of death were a mystery.

There would be an exchange of material through contact, and she was trying to determine where the bones had decayed.

Chen Yi did not interrupt and walked around the bones several times, frowning unconsciously.

"Who are you anyway?"

"Who transported you to the island in the middle of the lake?"

"Where is the place of your death?"

"What is the relationship between the person who attacked you behind your back and what is his motive?"

There are too many questions that cannot be answered, and Chen Yi has no good solution for the time being, so he can only wait.

Fang Shuyu ignored Chen Yi and devoted himself to his work. During this period, he left the forensic room several times with samples and continued to extract substances from the bones after returning.

Occasionally, I would tap it lightly with a small hammer and listen to the crisp sound coming from the bones.

At noon, the two went to have lunch together and continued the autopsy after returning.

Chen Yi was like a transparent person, sitting there motionless with his chin in his hands. He could only answer a few phone calls, but unfortunately no good news came.

A letter of assistance has been sent to the province, and the scope of the investigation has been further expanded.

A white skeleton and a young life cannot die in such an unknown way, without even knowing the name.

Chen Yi could not give up. Even if the case had to be temporarily shelved in the future, he would repeat the process of trial and error after accidentally thinking of new possibilities. He would not terminate until the identity of the bones and the cause of death were found out, and the suspect was identified.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Shuyu worked on the computer for a while and suddenly said: "Chen Yi, I think she has been soaked in water for a long time."

"In the water?" The sleepy Chen Yi stood up and walked over, "Why do you say that?"

Any discovery may advance the case.

Fang Shuyu pointed to the computer screen: "Look, there is a serious loss of calcium throughout the body. Do you think it is a disease?"

The screen was a little bright. Chen Yi squinted his eyes and said, "If the disease is cured, at least the scope of the investigation will be greatly reduced."

Disease, indicating that Bai Gu’s identity has a specific label, can direct the investigation to the hospital.

But the calcium loss caused by the disease cannot be whole body.

If the bones are soaked in water for a long time, it will also lead to calcium loss and cause bone density to decrease.

Fang Shuyu's speculation is correct.

"Can you know what kind of water it is?" Chen Yi thought about it and asked.

Purified water is water, river water is water, and sea water is also water. This question is still relatively important and determines the conclusion.

Fang Shuyu gave a negative answer: "I don't know, I can't find it out.

You also saw today that I went back and forth between the forensic room and the laboratory many times to detect the substances left on the bones to determine the source of the water, but unfortunately there was no harvest."

Chen Yi: "No harvest is a harvest. At least it can be determined that it is not soaked in sea water, right?"

Fang Shuyu nodded: "Yes."

There are many kinds of chemical substances dissolved in sea water, including chlorine, sodium, magnesium, potassium, sulfur, calcium and other elements. The proportion of salt accumulation is very high. If the body is soaked in sea water for a long time, it should be detected.

The process of the crime can be speculated.

There is a wound on the back of the deceased's head from being hit by a heavy object, suspected to be a stone, and now it is found that the body may have been soaked in water for a long time. Therefore, it can be judged that the murderer attacked the victim with a stone by the river, and then pushed the victim into the river nearby.

Regardless of whether the wound on the back of the head is fatal or not, even if she survives by chance, she will die in the water due to fainting.

This river is relatively clear, so it can be considered that the probability of rural rivers is higher, and the rivers in cities are seriously polluted.

Chen Yi and Fang Shuyu both have pictures, but there are too many rivers across the country, and there are not many rivers in Yangcheng, which cannot be used as a basis for investigation.

"Depend on you, this is all we can find from the bones. Except for calcium loss, she... is very healthy." Fang Shuyu said.

Chen Yi: "Don't give up, keep investigating, even if it takes a few years, I will make the truth of her death clear."

...

Another two days passed.

It has been ten days since the bones were found on the lake island, and the identity of the bones has not been determined so far.

Jiang Fanlei called to inquire about the progress of the investigation, but Chen Yi scolded him and dismissed him. Not only Jiang Fanlei, but Meng Yi and others were also very concerned and had learned about it from the side many times.

Yesterday, Chen Yi and Fang Shuyu went home for a meal, and even Chen Zhiyao asked if bones were found on the island in the middle of the lake.

"How do you know?" Chen Yi did not answer directly.

After getting confirmation, Chen Zhiyao asked mysteriously: "Did the wronged bones on the island reappear? Knowing that you, Chen Qingtian, are here, so I met with you and asked you to redress his grievances."

"..." Chen Yi rolled his eyes, "Dad, you have watched too many TV dramas, right? Chen Qingtian, do you think it's a pity that you don't have the surname Bao? Who told you?"

Chen Zhiyao: "My friend told me, and many people know about it. We talked about it during the meeting."

Chen Yi was helpless.

It seems that it is difficult to hide it, and it spreads very quickly.

Those who were invited to the island that day were basically well-known figures in Yangcheng. One person spread ten, ten spread a hundred, and then it reached Chen Zhiyao's ears.

After a long time, ordinary people will also know, and then the lake island will be really famous.

It's good that the case is closed. If it is not closed, Jiang Fanlei may be starving.

He won't starve to death, after all, he has many friends and can help with everything, but it may be difficult to get up again.

"Don't ask, Dad, I'm checking." Chen Yi said perfunctorily while eating.

Seeing that his son was unwilling to say more, Chen Zhiyao gave up asking. He didn't want to explore secrets, but just wanted to satisfy his curiosity and know a general situation.

After the topic ended, Shen Ying talked about family matters and deliberately led to the children. Chen Yi immediately reacted, quickly finished his meal and pulled Fang Shuyu upstairs.

I'll sleep at home tonight. I'm too lazy to go back.

When it comes to the issue of having children, it seems that all parents in the world are the same.

On the huge balcony, Chen Yi was half lying on a chair in pajamas, with a cigarette burning between his fingers. Looking up, he could see the cloudless night sky with stars.

I don't know which one can correspond to the bones on the lake island.

Fang Shuyu came over after taking a shower, wiping her wet hair, and said, "Will you wait tomorrow?"

Chen Yi slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and shook his head, saying, "No, Lin Chen's portrait is almost out, I want to put it in front of everyone."

"Everyone?" Fang Shuyu sat down, "Everyone on the lake island that day?"

Chen Yi hummed, "It's likely that someone knows someone, right? Maybe there's more than one person you know."

Fang Shuyu was slightly stunned: "More than one? What do you mean?"

Chen Yi: "Why did this guy put the bones on the lake island? Maybe it's because I'm here, maybe there are so many people, maybe because the identity of the employee of the lake island has advantages, There is another possibility that someone related to the case was also at the scene.

Let me give you an example. If the person who placed the bones was not the murderer, does he know who the murderer was? "

Fang Shuyu thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say, right?"

Chen Yi: "It's easy to say. He probably doesn't know who the murderer is, or is not sure who the murderer is, so he hides behind the scenes. Otherwise, he could have told the police instead of just placing the bones. He is even unwilling to tell us the identity of the deceased. What's the point?"

Fang Shuyu: "You want to say that the murderer was on the island at the time?"

Chen Yi: "Not the murderer, someone related to the case, may be the murderer or not, so I need to go through it again.

You think, if the person involved in the case is really on the island, when he sees the portrait of the victim, his reaction will definitely be big, right? And the person who placed the bones may also react after seeing the portrait, killing two birds with one stone. "

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'm a little confused, please wait a minute." Fang Shuyu stopped Chen Yi from continuing and asked: "If, I say if, if the murderer was on the island at that time, and the person who arranged it knew it, then the person who arranged it would directly By exposing the bones, wouldn't it make the murderer more alert and prevent him from escaping?

Could it be that you were unsure as you just said and wanted to see the reaction of the suspect? If his face changes drastically, is he the murderer? "

Chen Yi flicked the cigarette ashes and said: "Based on the premise that the person who placed the suspect knew that the suspect was on the island, he definitely did not want to see the other party's reaction. Think about it, what was Sun Yuanfa's reaction at that time, and what were the reactions of others?"

Fang Shuyu nodded: "That's true, everyone is quite scared, and we can't tell whether it's fear or a guilty conscience.

What do you mean? "

After talking about this, Chen Yijing spoke for a long time: "When I went to the provincial office two days ago, I told several leaders, including my father, that even if the identity of the bones cannot be determined, the person who placed the bones is very likely to have someone. You can wait and see what happens next.

Is this follow-up... directed at the person who killed the deceased? "

Fang Shuyu understood what Chen Yi wanted to express: "Snatch the snake? Release the bones, let the police find out, let the person find out, and force the person to do something?"

I made what you said more confusing, a bit mysterious, right? Are you thinking too much? Complicating simple problems. "

Chen Yi put out his cigarette: "I hope this case is complicated, because only if it is complicated can we have the opportunity to find clues and flaws. If it is very simple, the possibility of it becoming an unsolved case is not small.

The matter in front of us cannot be solved, and the identity of Bai Gu cannot be found, right? "

Fang Shuyu smiled: "Only you dare to hope so."

What detective wants a complicated case? It's better to let Bai Gu's identity remain a mystery forever. Anyway, it has nothing to do with ability. If you can't find it, you can't find it. It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.

No one knows who died, so how can the case continue?

Chen Yi: "Actually, the simpler the case, the more difficult it is to investigate."

Fang Shuyu: "Yes, a psycho stabbed a stranger in an unmonitored alley and ran away. It is a very simple case, but it is the most difficult to investigate."

The more complex the case, the more clues there are, and it’s not wrong to think about it from this perspective.

Many suspects like to play tricks with the police and get themselves in.

…

The next afternoon, Chen Yi got the three portraits completed by Lin Chen.

The white bones had no hair, so Lin Chen created them himself based on the face shape of the deceased. The most harmonious one had long hair that reached to the shoulders.

In Lin Chen's painting, the appearance of the female bones that had been dead for many years reappeared on the paper medium, lifelike, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

From the appearance, she is a very ordinary girl.

Was he really innocent, or was he killed because of his indiscretion?

Chen Yi and the portrait looked at each other, which was the intersection of time and space five years apart.

"Thanks for your hard work.

Tell Zhuo Yun that all the people who appeared on the island in the middle of the lake that day will come to the city bureau in batches and tell them... a routine investigation, and they can leave if they stay for a few minutes. "

Lin Chen: "Yes!"
