chapter -32 Crime scene

 

        

 

Tianbei Seafood Market is located in the area that the Tianwang Group is responsible for, so the distance is not too far.

 

In just three to five minutes, Li Jing and three others arrived at the place.

 

Before they fell down, the three of them saw a warning cordon set up at the door of a shop with a half-open rolling shutter door in the center of the market. Outside the cordon, a large number of passersby gathered, poking their heads and trying to peek inside the shop.

 

Yukong looked up from the sky and saw the huge crowds of people below, and Li Jing sighed.

 

"Oh, there are always people watching everywhere."

 

While sighing, he turned to look at Lu Yangcheng and Yi Xiuzhu.

 

"The cordon has been set up, and the inspection should be here. I'll go to the shop to see if there's anyone who can help. Yangcheng, you, and Xiuzhu will stay outside to maintain order on the scene. The ground crew will be slow to arrive, so they will probably have to wait for a while. Yes."

 

"Understood."

 

Lu Yangcheng responded.

 

Yi Xiuzhu also nodded.

 

The Heavenly King Group is headed by Li Jing, so the two of them will naturally listen to his orders.

 

Especially now that I have a serious job.

 

After the three of them fell, Lu Yangcheng and Yi Xiuzhu went to both sides of the cordon, trying to persuade the onlookers to leave.

 

It is, of course, impossible to persuade the onlookers to retreat with just a few words.

 

But at least someone was maintaining order at the scene.

 

Seeing the auxiliary investigation uniforms worn by the two men, the crowd of onlookers who were originally eager to stick their heads into the cordon retreated somewhat.

 

Li Jing walked into the store alone.

 

As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned for a moment.

 

At this time, two inspectors, a man and a woman, were standing in front of an inner door in the store, talking.

 

One of them was Chen Yuran.

 

He also recognized the other one.

 

It was the man who patrolled the farmer's market with Chen Yuran the night before, Luo Zhize.

 

Chen Yuran caught a glimpse of Li Jing coming in and smiled sweetly.

 

"Surprised to see me?"

 

?

 

Luo Zhize subconsciously turned his head and then raised his eyebrows.

 

"Is it you?"

 

"We meet again, Inspector Luo."

 

Li Jing smiled friendly.

 

Seeing this, Luo Zhize nodded in response and asked curiously.

 

"Why did you become the assistant investigator? When did it happen?"

 

Chen Yuran spoke before Li Jing could reply.

 

"Not two days after the incident at the farmer's market, he went to assist in the examination. He is now a member of the patrol team of the Auxiliary Investigation Section and is responsible for the area where the Tianbei Seafood Market is located. We went to the scene and called for assistance. I guess he will arrive first."

 

"Ah this..."

 

Luo Zhize blinked, a little confused.

 

The farmer's market incident didn't happen long ago.

 

Of course, he remembered Li Jing and was deeply impressed.

 

This meeting at the crime scene really surprised him.

 

Then here comes the problem.

 

Why does Chen Yuran look so familiar with Li Jing, even knowing when he went to take the exam?

 

Seeing his partner's confused expression, Chen Yuran didn't mean to explain much.

 

Privately, she is indeed more easy-going.

 

But at work, she is a really strong woman.

 

Looking at Li Jing, Chen Yuran asked.

 

"Besides you, is there anyone else from the auxiliary department?"

 

"There are two colleagues of mine who are in the same group. They are maintaining order outside. Do you need me to call them in?"

 

Li Jing responded.

 

"There is no need for the time being; we are also waiting for people from the forensic department."

 

Chen Yuran said.

 

"The auxiliary ground crew won't be here for a while. Please ask the two of you to stay outside to avoid trouble later."

 

"Hmm."

 

Li Jing walked in and asked.

 

"What's going on here?"

 

"We can't tell yet."

 

Chen Yuran said that, seeing Li Jing approaching, he spoke in a low voice.

 

"The situation inside is very miserable. You'd better be mentally prepared."

 

As she spoke, she took half a step back.

 

Li Jing took this opportunity to clearly see the scene behind the inner door of the store and frowned slightly.

 

Behind the inner door is cold storage.

 

Just standing in front of the door, you can see seven or eight shriveled corpses lying on the floor of the cold storage.

 

This is the first time Li Jing has seen a mummy.

 

However, before time travel, he watched a lot of heavy-duty movies and TV series.

 

Among them, forensic case handling is what he is most passionate about.

 

Which episode of this kind doesn't feature one or two corpses that died in miserable conditions?

 

Seeing the scene before him, he felt no physical discomfort.

 

He dared to think about getting the job of patrolling, so naturally, he would not be persuaded to quit just because of this.

 

Just looking at the seven or eight shriveled corpses in front of him, he couldn't help but have doubts.

 

What makes these corpses so shriveled up?

 

    monster?

 

Human cultivation?

 

Chen Yuran saw that Li Jing's expression remained unchanged after seeing so many corpses, and his mental quality was good, so he said calmly.

 

"Tianbei Seafood Market closed on the day when demonizations occurred, that is, nine days ago. Just now, Luo Zhize and I talked to the owner of the store next door. This store was still operating normally nine days ago. We didn't see anything strange at that time. Place. In just nine days, even if someone died in the store, it would not be so weathered and shriveled up to this extent."

 

Watching Chen Yuran tell Li Jing the information about the crime scene, Luo Zhize did not show any interest and continued.

 

"Why these people died can only be determined after the people from the forensic department arrive. It is obvious that this is not just a murder scene but also a corpse hiding place." A corpse

 

    hiding place?

 

Li Jing was slightly stunned, then suddenly realized.

 

This seafood shop has a small appearance.

 

Dingtian is run by two or three people.

 

There were fourteen corpses lying in the cold storage at this moment, and something was obviously wrong.

 

The three of them were talking when a beautiful woman wearing a patrol uniform suddenly walked in outside the door.

 

Chen Yuran and Luo Zhize's eyes lit up when they caught a glimpse of the person coming.

 

"Sister Qiu Ci, why did you come here in person?"

 

Chen Yuran said.

 

"Everyone else in the department is busy; who will come if I don't come?"

 

The beautiful woman smiled, took a closer look at Li Jing, nodded friendlyly, and walked straight into the cold storage.

 

Seeing this, Luo Zhize quickly followed in.

 

Chen Yuran whispered to Li Jing.

 

"This is Section Chief Yang Qiuci of the Forensic Section of the Beicheng Inspection Bureau. I have to call her sister and pay more attention to what I say later.""

 

Oh."

 

Li Jing nodded subconsciously, thinking something was wrong.

 

Chen Yuran has to call her sister; what does it have to do with him?

 

Before he could figure it out, Chen Yuran had left him and followed him to the cold storage.

 

Thinking that there was nothing to ponder, Li Jing followed closely and looked at Yang Qiuci's back curiously.

 

Yang Qiuci looks to be at most two or three years older than Chen Yuran, but he is already a section chief and a real boss.

 

...

 

enter the cold storage.

 

Yang Qiuci stopped in front of the mummy closest to the inner door, took out a pair of gloves, put them on, kneeled down and pointed at the chest of the mummy, then closed his eyes.

 

?

 

Li Jing frowned.

 

What is this for?

 

"Inspiration, a commonly used spell in the forensic department, can sense whether there is an aura inside a corpse through contact. This spell cannot be learned or touched by ordinary people. It can only be learned in colleges related to forensics. It must be used formally at work to ensure there will be no misjudgment; at least you have to cultivate to the level of Dacheng."

 

Chen Yuran explained it to him very thoughtfully.

 

Before he finished speaking, Yang Qiuci stood up and walked towards another mummy. He pointed at the chest of the mummy in the same way and then looked back at the three people.

 

"The spiritual energy inside the corpse is completely exhausted. It is initially determined that this is the main cause of death."

 

As she spoke, she took out a scalpel.

 

"Zhize, come here and help me."

 

"Okay."

 

Luo Zhize responded, took out a pair of gloves, and put them on.

 

Yang Qiuci took advantage of the situation and cut open the chest of the mummy.

 

Without her instructions, Luo Zhize stretched out his hand and gently pressed the chest of the mummy, opening its chest.

 

As soon as they opened it, their expressions changed.

 

There are no internal organs inside the mummy.

 

Chen Yuran also showed a solemn expression when he saw that there was nothing in the chest of the mummy.

 

Li Jingchu looked on, confused.

 

If there are no internal organs in the mummy's chest, there must be something wrong.

 

So what's the problem?

 

Can anyone explain this?

 

In a daze, Chen Yuran raised her hand and pressed on the earphones.

 

"Headquarters, the situation here at Tianbei Seafood Market is a bit serious; please ask for support. From the current situation, it can be judged that the evil cultivator committed the crime, which may be related to the evil cultivator case half a year ago."
