Chapter 681: Focus on this place, let’s dig
Chen Guoshi pointed to the mouth of the valley in the distance: "There is a wind outlet here. The temperature in the valley is relatively low at night, and sometimes in this valley There is a tornado.”
“So we don’t have a camping site here. We usually walk to another valley next door for half a day and camp there.”
It’s not a camping site. , that means that the murderer either met the expedition team by chance at this place.
Either bring people to this place specifically to kill people.
"Li Suo, take me to the location where Corpse No. 3 was found."
The location where Corpse No. 3 was found is about 200 meters away from Corpse No. 1 and Entity No. 2.
"Li Chu, something is wrong."
Two hundred meters in the mountains and two hundred meters on the plain are completely different things.
200 meters on the plain, you can see it at a glance.
But inside the mountain, Lu Chuan followed Li Hao for a distance of 200 meters and could no longer see the locations where corpses No. 1 and 2 were found.
“You mean No. 3 was killed while escaping, right?”
Li Donglin himself is a technical criminal police officer, and he used to do spot investigation.
In the past few years, he has served as the director of the Investigation Division in the provincial department and participated in presiding over hundreds of major and important cases.
So his ability to analyze cases logically is far stronger than that of Lu Chuan.
Of course, what Lu Chuan could discover, he could also discover.
"Li Chu, look at this trunk."
Beside the pit where the body of victim No. 3 was buried, Lu Chuan carefully observed the trunk of a pine tree.
“The black spots above may be caused by gunshots.”
“Let me try and see if I can produce nitrification reaction.”
Lu Chuan took this into consideration when he went into the mountains, so he brought simple tools and some reagents.
In fact, judging from the situation at the scene, Lu Chuan's guess should be correct. This is indeed the scene of the first crime.
Victim No. 3 was most likely caught up by the murderer while escaping, and then shot.
Victim No. 3 may not have died immediately after being shot. He was buried after being tortured by the other party.
Soon Lu Chuan completed the digestive reaction and confirmed his guess just now.
"This valley has only one entrance and one exit."
"Li Chu, I think we should go into the mountain and continue tracking to see if we can find some clues."
In the expedition team Five people, three males, have been killed.
Where are the other two?
Half a year has passed, but no one has been seen alive, and no body has been seen dead.
The two of them went into the mountains this time, on the one hand, to take another look at the crime scene.
On the other hand, we have to try to see if we can find the other two victims.
Others certainly have no objections.
Do whatever the leader says.
After the skeletons were discovered, the Beizhou City Criminal Investigation Detachment sent people to conduct a careful search in the valley and confirmed that there were indeed only three skeletons here.
A blanket search was conducted over the nearby 300 meters.
Some clues were found.
In the past five days, Lu Chuan has conducted a comprehensive re-examination of these clues.
Except for half a fingerprint, there are too few other clues.
“Leader, if we go in, we can only go for three days at most.”
As a guide, Chen Guoshi has to listen to him as far as he can go.
“We have brought a total of 10 days of material reserves. Now we have been in for two days and walked for three days, and then we will go back.”
“We can walk for three more days. Where? "
"The hinterland basically enters the hinterland of Beiliang Mountain. The average expedition team will turn back after only one day's journey."
"Let's go further inside. Walking for three days is basically a place that the expedition team will not reach.”
"In the past, only some old hunters and some people who picked rare mountain products would go that far." "In addition, if you go further inside, there will be very few camping spots, inaccessible, and the danger will increase."
Finally, Li Donglin decided to leave for three days.
If nothing is found, return.
Lu Chuan and others did not stay too much at the scene, but went directly along the mountain road to the next camping spot.
This valley is not suitable for habitation at night, and if you want to use another camping spot, you need to climb a 200-meter-high mountain to reach another valley.
The camping spots Lao Chen found actually have their own explanations for their distance.
The distance between these campsites is basically neither too close nor too far.
It was already afternoon when everyone arrived at the camping site, and the sun was just about to set.
“We will camp here tonight and we can’t leave anymore.”
Like yesterday, Lao Chen quickly set up a bonfire.
"Old Chen, is this the only camping spot in this valley?"
"There are three, this one is the largest, there are many of us, and there are two more small ones over there. Camping point."
Lu Chuan looked up at the sky. He definitely wouldn't be able to make it through today, so he could only go around tomorrow.
It is very cold at night in the mountains.
The dew was heavy.
And Lu Chuan felt that the further into the mountains, the greater the temperature difference between morning and evening.
During the day, where the sun shines, the temperature can reach more than ten degrees.
But at night, it’s only about zero degrees.
The next morning, Lu Chuan got up early and walked around the camp.
Camping spots in the mountains can only be used by whoever develops them.
Since there was no camping spot in the last valley where the bones were found, where would the murderer be camping at that time?
Isn’t it also this valley?
So, Lu Chuan wandered around the camp all morning, but unfortunately, he found nothing after half a day.
“Old Chen, let’s check out the other two small campsites later.”
"Okay, let me clean these up."
After saying that, Lao Chen spread out the bonfire, made sure there were no sparks in it, and then buried some branches in the soil beside it.
Lao Chen said that all people who go into the mountains do this, one is to prevent wildfires, and the other is to make reserves for the next time they come.
After having a simple breakfast, everyone went to another camping spot under the leadership of Lao Chen.
After walking for more than two hours, Lu Chuan and others saw this camping spot.
The area is not large, it can only accommodate three tents at most.
“Has anyone lived here recently?”
Although the bonfire on the ground has been spread out, it has not been exposed to wind and rain, and some ashes can still be seen.
Old Chen nodded: "It will take about a month or two."
"Everyone, look around and call out if there is anything unusual."
After Li Donglin made arrangements, everyone came in fours and threes to conduct a detailed search of the surrounding area.
After a while: "Suo Li, I have something here!"
A policeman from the police station discovered it.
After Li Hao came over, he quickly used the intercom to shout: "Director Li, Director Lu, there is something discovered here!"
After a while, everyone gathered together.
What the police just found was a shoe, a single orange hiking shoe.
"Size 36, women's shoes."
Lu Chuan sighed: "Focus on this, let's dig!"
