Chapter 523 Site Investigation
When it comes to the project, the man's mood is quite stable.
“This camping area is a municipal project. It was planned and constructed eight years ago, but the recruitment and bidding only started five years ago.”
“Planned 8 years ago Why did the construction project only start bidding five years ago? "
Municipal projects are generally implemented slowly, but it took three years to invite bidding. There must be something wrong.
Sure enough, the man wiped his forehead and said: "This project should be regarded as a prestige project at the time. After all, this camping area is relatively far from the city. The investment amount is not small, but the income is not high."
"Related The matching funds have never been in place, and a group of people who planned it were eliminated. "
"Until 5 years ago, our head office acquired a piece of land in the city. , to develop new properties, we need to assist in developing the camping area here according to the above requirements."
"Binding?"
"Well, that's more or less the meaning, it wasn't considered tied at that time. The bid was not included in the bid, but everyone knows that whoever gets the land will build the camping area.”
"Because this camping area is relatively large, the construction period was planned to be two years. We entered the site for construction five years ago, and it was only delivered for use three years ago as required."
"But because this place is really It’s too remote, and the construction period took a little longer than expected... So, the entire camp was completed and put into use almost a year ago.”
Although Zhang Hui has never done any engineering, he is familiar with this place. I don’t know much about Mao Mao Nian Ni, but he has caught many people working on projects.
So I still have a certain understanding of these little tricks of theirs.
As long as a project does not cut corners, the input of materials is certain.
But the longer the construction period drags on, the less manpower is invested.
The manpower here includes both the quantity and quality of construction workers.
It was delivered three years ago as required, but it was delayed by almost a year and a half.
This is equivalent to a project that was originally planned to be constructed for two years, but took three and a half years to finally be completed.
That means that a job that originally required 100 people may only require 50 people.
Although the increase in time will lead to an extension of working hours, who stipulates that these people will always work on this construction site?
This is an important means for the construction party to save costs, especially when the other party is not only involved in this one project.
Zhang Hui is just a criminal police officer. When the project is handed over has nothing to do with him. What he is most concerned about is when the stone statues in the small amusement park entered the venue.
"Tell me who ordered the stone statue in the small amusement park? Who built it? Who transported it? When did it arrive?"
The man shook his head and nodded.
"This stone statue was originally included in the planning and construction drawings, but I don't know who ordered it, built it, or shipped it."
"I am only responsible for the basic construction, and the stone statue is a decoration material , the purchasing department of our parent company is responsible for the procurement.”
“The seller is also responsible for transportation and installation. I’m not particularly clear about this.”
“As for the time, that’s it. I remember clearly that it was transported here on New Year’s Day the year before last.”
“Because this stone statue is relatively large, we transported it and installed it in the middle of the fountain before we constructed it. Construction.”
"It snowed heavily on New Year's Day the year before last. I was particularly impressed by the heavy snow. It was at that time that they came to install it."
The information on the construction side is very limited.
According to the man in charge of the construction company, although the stone statues were purchased by their company, the specific production and installation were completed by the company that sold the stone statues.
Zhang Hui gave Qin Yong a report on the general situation.
Although this case is strange, and the murderer hid the body in the stone statue, normally, as long as no one touches the stone statue, it may not be discovered in this life.
But now that it has been discovered, the direction of detection is actually relatively clear.
That is to find the root of the stone statues. Who made the stone statues?
Why are there corpses inside?
If the people who made the stone statues don’t know, then maybe no one knows. "Check with the construction company about the origin of the stone statue and find the company that made it."
"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."
While Zhang Hui was investigating the origin of the stone statues, the current survey work on Lu Chuan's side was in full swing.
The entire on-site work is divided into two parts. The first part is the investigation of the body itself, and the second part is the investigation of the interior of the stone statue.
The scene investigation of the body was carried out together with the forensic doctor.
"The deceased was male, 1.73 meters tall, about 30 years old, and had long-term experience of doing heavy physical work."
The shriveled corpse has slightly bowed legs, and judging from its shape, it appears that it was not born but was caused by long-term heavy physical labor and heavy pressure.
The bones of the human body are basically in the same shape at birth, but the weight of the body the day after tomorrow will cause the bones to deform slightly.
This semi-deformation amplitude varies with time.
Lu Chuan’s skeletal identification and analysis capabilities also include a large amount of data in this area.
This is also the basis for Lu Chuan to roughly judge the age of the deceased.
After all, the appearance of a shriveled and dried corpse shows no age.
"The time of death is at least more than a year."
Wang Changjiang gently tapped the corpse's shriveled abdomen with a small hammer, making a dull sound like tapping on rotten wood.
In fact, the one year mentioned by Wang Changjiang is the minimum time, because it takes a long time to form this kind of air-dried corpse, and such a severely dehydrated corpse will not appear in too short a time.
“Haizhou City has a relatively humid climate and is close to the seaside, so it is unlikely that such mummies will form naturally.”
Shen Yan wondered about the reason for the formation of mummies.
Liu Guodong also nodded.
"The conditions for the natural formation of mummies are relatively harsh. The natural conditions in Haizhou City are indeed not conducive to the formation of such dried corpses."
"Did it come from other places?"
Yang Lin frowned, but this didn't make sense: "The murderer hid the body in the stone statue to hide the fact that he committed murder."
"If the body was dried under natural conditions, which are usually in inaccessible places, the murderer would not have to go to such great lengths to get the body back to the city and seal it in a stone statue."
After working as a detective all his life, this is the first time that Lao Bai has seen a dried corpse like this.
"Is it possible that other means, such as a dryer, can be used to quickly dehydrate the corpse, resulting in this mummification situation?"
Several people looked at each other. This possibility is indeed possible. .
But for drying the human body, ordinary small dryers are not suitable.
"I suggest that an autopsy be performed on the body to determine the cause and time of death."
There are no wounds on the surface of the entity, and it is not possible to tell what the fatal injury is for the time being. Lu Chuan suggested performing an autopsy first.
"I'm checking the inside of the stone statue to see if there are any clues."
The body itself is relatively clean.
There were no clothes. Lu Chuan had just used an ultraviolet lamp to scan the surface of the body. No clues such as fingerprints were found yet.
Now let’s look inside the stone statue to see if the murderer may have left anything behind.
The other step is to extract the genetic material through forensic autopsy to see if the identity of the corpse can be determined.
As for fingerprints, fingerprints can also be extracted from shriveled corpses, and Lu Chuan plans to go back and do it.
