Chapter 199 Two great detectives face to face
Got out of the car and went up the mountain road.
Lin Xiaosu and Zhou Mei arrived at the murder scene.
This place is close to Feiyuzui and is a mountain road. Under normal circumstances, tourists from the county will not come here, but local residents will take this shortcut.
The man who died on this road was a local resident.
The police originally pulled up the isolation tape at this scene, but now, the isolation tape has been taken away.
A policeman on guard duty on the roadside told Zhou Mei: "The leaders of Brigade Zhang and the provincial department are above."
Zhou Mei said: "The isolation belt has been removed. Has the survey been completed?"
"Yes, the number one detective in Jiangcheng performs his tracking skills live. You really should see it with your own eyes. It's a miracle."
Zhou Mei looked at Lin Xiaosu.
Lin Xiaosu stared at the crime scene. Looking at it from this angle, his eyes were a bit empty...
Are you shocked by the title of Jiangcheng's number one detective?
This is Zhou Mei’s inner thought...
A smile slowly appeared on Lin Xiaosu's face: "What a magical method?"
The policeman said: "If you follow me now, you should still be able to see it."
This policeman knew Lin Xiaosu.
The Fengcheng police generally have a good relationship with Lin Xiaosu and are very tolerant of him unless issues of principle are involved.
At this time, the leaders of the provincial department and Jiangcheng's first detective completed the survey below. After the survey, the alert was lifted. As long as you don't step directly onto the road with the little yellow flag, you can walk anywhere else as you like.
Lin Xiaosu and Zhou Mei took the normal path.
The road with the little yellow flag was actually in the grass. In other words, the escape route of the vicious beast found by Jiangcheng's first detective was not a serious road, but a walk through the grass.
"Based on your detective vision, is the position of the little yellow flag correct?" Zhou Mei asked quietly.
"Absolutely right!" Lin Xiaosu said.
"In other words, Jiangcheng's number one detective deserves his reputation?"
"Of course!" Lin Xiaosu said with a smile: "The commission starts at 200,000 yuan when I make a sale. How can I deserve such a high price if I don't have any real materials?"
Zhou Mei frowned: "Suddenly talking about money at this time? You don't want to tell me that you plan to collect money if I ask you to come over, do you?"
"This is a bit sensitive. I won't help you once or twice."
Zhou Mei frowned even more tightly: "Are you still planning to calculate the general ledger?"
"..."
Lin Xiaosu swallowed her words...
Because he saw a group of people in front of him and also saw a strange scene of tracking...
There are four people on the hillside in front.
Captain Zhang of the Criminal Investigation Brigade.
A middle-aged man wearing a police uniform, with three police stars on his shoulders, one more than Captain Zhang, was obviously a provincial leader.
A middle-aged man dressed in white as snow, gentle and elegant, was the number one detective in Jiangcheng, He Jiang, whom he had met once in Jiangcheng.
There was also a female police officer who followed them and took photos.
Team Zhang is a little different from before.
His movements were noticeably lighter and more graceful.
He is a person who has undergone genetic modification surgery.
Successful genetic modification has transformed the body.
But Lin Xiaosu's eyes did not focus too much on this old acquaintance, but instead focused on He Jiang, the number one detective in Jiangcheng.
Because He Jiang is performing a somewhat magical tracking technique.
He had a small watering can in his hand. When he sprayed the watering can on the opposite side, a footprint with a faint blue light appeared on the ground.
At this moment, he was still far away from He Jiang, but under the wise eyes of Heaven, he could still clearly see the footprints.
This is a very unique footprint.
Paw prints, to be exact.
Four toes touch the ground, and the edges of the claws appear very sharp.
Zhou Mei's eyes were far away. She could only see the action of spraying water with a watering can on the opposite hillside, but could not see the paw prints shown in blue light: "You are also an expert in tracking. Do you know what this watering can does?" ?”
"Inside is some kind of potion that can make footprints visible."
"There is a potion that can make footprints fluoresce in a dark room, but can it be used in the wild...even under the sun?" Zhou Mei said.
"So he is the number one detective! This is the guy who eats for me."
"Hey, who are you eating with?" Zhou Mei's eyes turned slightly.
"Face!" Lin Xiaosu said: "I didn't realize it before, but now I suddenly discovered that I can actually rely on my face to make a living..."
"Get out! You're shameless!" Zhou Mei didn't tolerate him at all.
The previous tracking was smooth.
The fluorescent paw prints that appeared under the watering can set up a clear road sign in front of the four people, all the way to the top of the mountain.
On the top of the mountain is a stone tower.
This stone pagoda is the origin of Laotashan.
Why is Laotashan called Laotashan? Just because there is a very old stone tower here.
It is unknown which dynasty the stone pagoda was built in, and there are many legends about it.
Some people say that this was a tower used to escape wars thousands of years ago.
Some people say that this place was originally an ancient country, and this tower was used for worship in the ancient kingdom. When it comes to the ancient kingdom, many people find it ridiculous. Is a small county worthy of being called a kingdom? But in an era when princes are competing for hegemony, a small county town may not be able to support the name of a "country". Some people can even set up a stage in the village and ascend the throne in front of the villagers...
However, there is no documentation.
There are no stone carvings.
Under the erosion of millions of years, the stone tower gradually turned into a grotto built with random stones.
The footprints lead all the way to the ancient pagoda.
Until the last footprint appeared at the stone tower...in fact, the entrance to the grotto.
All four people were stunned.
The four of them are industry elites.
From the autopsy results, He Jiang clearly judged that the murderer was a beast.
At the crime scene, he found this special paw print.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The appearance of this claw mark confirmed his judgment.
Because the paw prints matched perfectly with the scars on the deceased's neck, 100% consistent.
At this point, it has basically been locked that the owner of this claw mark is the real murderer.
But what animal left the paw prints?
Everyone's heart was in turmoil. The animals in their memories and the animals in all the information seemed to be inconsistent. Therefore, He Jiangcai said that this was a strange beast.
The chain of cases involving the crime of alien beasts is now clear and there is no dispute.
Now, from the scene of the crime to the stone tower, paw prints are coming step by step, clearly guiding everyone in one direction: this strange beast has entered the grotto.
Captain Zhang's eyes narrowed and he stared at the inside of the grotto.
There was actually nothing inside the grotto, but where the paw prints disappeared, there was a crack.
Cracks are naturally formed and lead to unknown spaces.
The crack is only a foot or two wide, and humans cannot get in, but this strange beast can...
"The investigation of the case has been completed!" He Jiang put away the small watering can in his hand: "I'm afraid we have to face a decision next, whether to blow up this grotto."
Captain Zhang frowned: "This ancient pagoda is a historical relic. It seems inappropriate to explode it."
The leader of the provincial department said: "This stone tower has no documented records and no cultural relics characterization. It cannot be regarded as a historical relic that needs to be protected. Knowing that ferocious beasts that can kill people at any time are hidden inside, it must be blown up! Prepare explosives. .”
Captain Zhang was slightly startled: "Li Chu, we need to ask the county leaders for instructions on this matter."
"Ask the county leaders for instructions. The county leaders also have to ask the provincial leaders for instructions. After asking for instructions in a circle, the day lilies are cold!" Li Chu said: "Team Zhang, don't forget that we are the people's police, people-oriented! When the people's lives are in danger, You must make a decisive decision! Prepare explosives!”
The atmosphere in the venue was a bit tense.
Team Zhang is a local.
He knew that although this stone pagoda was not classified as a cultural relic, it was a historical relic in the hearts of the people in the county. No one in the county knew about Laotashan. Laotashan was named after this old pagoda, and the position of this old pagoda was not low.
However, he could not refute what the leader said, because what the leader said was right.
When people's lives are threatened, they must act decisively.
Not to mention that this tower is not a cultural relic in the true sense, but so what? People-oriented, human life is the most important thing. If a child’s head is stuck in the fence of the Forbidden City, the fence of the Forbidden City can be dismantled...
At this moment, a voice suddenly came: "This leader is a little hasty."
Everyone turned back at the same time.
Two people appeared behind them, of course Lin Xiaosu and Zhou Mei.
Captain Zhang stared at Lin Xiaosu, his eyes slightly bright.
He Jiang stared at Lin Xiaosu with an unusual expression.
Li Chuze's face was gloomy: "Who are you?"
"Leader, his name is Lin Xiaosu, he is a detective from Fengcheng Detective Agency." Zhou Mei said.
"A detective? He's not from the police at all. Who allowed him to come in?" Li Chu's eyes were extremely serious.
Zhou Mei's heart suddenly sank...
Today she went to Lin Xiaosu without anyone's authorization.
In fact, she didn't come to Lin Xiaosu specifically to handle the case.
She just found an excuse to ask him out.
After they got in the car, she had an idea and told him about the case. It evolved step by step to this point. Strictly speaking, this was a violation of her rules.
Is the leader going to hold her accountable?
Captain Zhang said: "Li Chu, I invited him here. This Detective Lin has cooperated with our police many times before and solved strange cases many times. He was the one who solved the major case of 5.16. So, I am thinking about this case." He should also be able to play a role in the strange case, so I asked Officer Zhou to invite him over.”
If Zhou Mei made the decision without authorization, Director Li would naturally not be too polite.
But Captain Zhang stepped forward and took over this responsibility.
Director Li still had to be a little more merciful to Captain Zhang. His eyes slid over Lin Xiaosu's face and he waved his hand gently: "The detection chain is over. He is no longer needed. Let him go!"
< br>
Lin Xiaosu smiled softly: "If the detection chain is really over, I can just walk away according to the leader's request. But leader, the detection chain is not over. It can even be said that you have gone into a misunderstanding!"
Everyone was shocked at the same time.
Team Zhang stepped forward: "Xiao Su, what did you find?"
Lin Xiaosu said: "The real murderer did not actually enter the grotto."
"Didn't enter the grotto?" Captain Zhang frowned...
He Jiang slowly raised his eyes, as if he had never really come face to face with Lin Xiaosu until this moment: "Detective Lin, right? Let me know, I am He Jiang from Jiangcheng Detective Agency."
"I know you are known as Jiangcheng's best detective!" Lin Xiaosu said.
