Chapter 593: Meritorious Service

~8 min read 1,511 words

"There's a bit of a problem over here. I've sent it to the group."

Su Lei didn't have much time to examine her inner thoughts; a bald spot on a picture attracted her attention.

As everyone knows, forests don't have bald spots for no reason, just like the alopecia on a little kitten; there is always a reason.

Jiang Yuan and the others immediately went to the group to look at the picture. The picture was large, the network was good, and the alopecia was clear.

"Send people over, bring the dogs." Jiang Yuan glanced at it twice and determined it was a problem, and it didn't look like a burial site from six years ago, but more like... six months ago.

Several police officers received the order, packed up, and prepared to set off. Jiang Yuan went out and called Liu Wenkai, saying: "Team Leader Liu, sorry for the trouble, please lead a team to take a look at this location."

"Okay." Liu Wenkai agreed before asking:

"Do you feel like it's here?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head, saying: "Ninety-nine percent it's not here, but there is a seventy percent chance that a body is buried there."

Liu Wenkai was stunned, his expression becoming much more solemn, saying: "Then I understand. I'll go over and protect the scene."

The only thing that made people a little anxious was that the pictures were becoming fewer and fewer, and the suspected burial site of the Zhang Yi case had not appeared.

The progress bar was moving in the conference room, and there was no idleness outside the conference room.

"Then they were all killed. I also died. Professor Su went missing; in fact, he ran away. The police chased the murderer for a year or two without catching him, but is stopping the saving of funds and manpower the optimal choice? Letting Professor Su continue to live worry-free from now on?" Su Lei asked rhetorically, then added: "By comparison, the police restarting the cold case from time to time is the greatest deterrent to Professor Su."

"What you said about seeing... forget it, I don't really want to see a dead body..." While speaking, the old professor's curiosity gradually extinguished.

"I asked the traffic police team and the police station officers to help me look, and sure enough, I found that vehicle!"

Su Lei turned to look at her and smiled, saying: "You can't just consider the problem from our perspective. You try thinking about this problem from the perpetrator's perspective. Suppose... you killed Professor Mu."

"A bit less humane." Jiang Yuan sighed.

"What to do when you reach the point of exhaustion?" Liu Wenkai said: "I do over a hundred bodies a year for homicide cases, not counting non-natural deaths. There are plenty of places where it can be used."

"Then it's not that our police are exhausted; it's more likely that the entire society has collapsed." Su Lei said, looking a bit relaxed.

"It's hot, but there's no way around it. Pingzhou is inherently relatively hot." Su Lei answered with a smile.

"What if it can't be found?" Jiang Yuan's C-line was also finished, and there weren't many left of the remaining four lines. Jiang Yuan was a little concerned and a little curious.

This wasn't invented by Su Lei either; current journals all use this mode of manuscript review, and everyone is used to it without needing to adapt. Moreover, several people were in the conference room, and if there were any problems, direct verbal communication was also very convenient.

"If it can't be found, keep looking? There must be an end."

"Electric tricycle?" Ling Nan was a little surprised. Liu Wenkai knocked on the door and walked in at this time, saying: "Team Leader Jiang."

Scholars wouldn't be easily implanted with thoughts. Professor Mu changed to a serious expression at this time, saying: "But resources are limited. You can not pursue cost-effectiveness, but we will always have times when we have no money."

Su Lei: "It's a long story..."

Someone was still clinging to the glass, watching and saying: "Is this how you police go out? It's quite handsome."

Each one armed to the teeth, wouldn't it be a bit hot?

Three years might still be a bit too long. Trying to find it by observing vegetation from the air, the difficulty was indeed quite high.

"So, are they going out to find this body? Could it be a murder case?" The oldest professor present was about 60 years old and still maintained a vigorous curiosity.

The most curious Professor Mu was finally amused: "Why did you kill me?"

Several botanists in the room looked quite excited.

Ling Nanju was a little embarrassed, saying: "Because when I was a junior police officer, I came into contact with electric tricycle cases. This kind of electric tricycle in our county used to be for pulling people and goods, the kind that costs a few yuan per trip. In terms of quantity, our county only has a total of over 3,000 electric tricycles, and less than 1,000 can pull goods."

Su Lei could only smile and say: "If it can't be found, keep looking until it is found."

And following closely behind was a real body involved in the case.

Two more private graves were discovered—this kind of private grave wasn't for some reason, but really a private grave built in the wild. What really attracted the police's attention was that there were no grave mounds, no tombstones, no one to worship, and not even a coffin; it looked like a private grave for burying or dumping a body.

A body with the head separated from the torso. It neither met the requirements of this case nor was it obviously a body that had died naturally.

He saw other experts and professors looking over, so he followed the topic and made an assumption.

"I'll go over immediately." What could Su Lei say? At the very least, a homicide case with a body is better than one without.

"Can do." Liu Wenkai nodded and added: "Speaking of which, I can also bring two apprentices."

Jiang Yuan put himself in their shoes and couldn't help but say:

"Do you want to keep the criminal living in fear?" Looking at Su Lei, Liu Wenkai continued: "I'm just thinking, unless the murderer throws the electric tricycle into the river, his best method of disposal is to leave the key in the car and let someone steal it."

Jiang Yuan asked strangely: "What does this have to do with Pingzhou?"

Su Lei spread his hands.

"The living have already gained too much from the dead; you can't take advantage of them enough, right." Su Lei pointed to the screen in front of him and said: "Like this case, it's not good for me to disclose specific details, but if you really use cost-effectiveness and such things to weigh it, it's definitely not worth us inviting five experts to chase such a small possibility. But we will do it."

Comparing it to our scientific research projects, Su Lei is inviting experts and mobilizing hundreds of police officers; the expenses are definitely not small. Is it really unacceptable if there are no results?

"More than that. We are often broke."

Everyone continued to be busy checking pictures, and if there were questions, they threw them into the group, basically a mode similar to expert review.

"That way, even after three years, this car might still be in the market."

Ling Nanju, even with a full team and expectations, was quite helpless when calling Su Lei: "The body has already skeletonized; it's difficult."

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Su Lei looked over and saw Ling Nanju's expression was a bit unnatural.

"Right, because Liu Chu said earlier that the murderer still had to deal with the electric tricycle, so I thought, what is the disposal channel." Liu Wenkai looked at Su Lei, and seeing he wasn't unhappy, continued: "I had nothing to do earlier, so I thought I'd follow that clue to check, and sure enough, I found the vehicle involved in the case."

"Cough, cough." Liu Wenkai curled his hands and coughed pretentiously, saying: "Team Leader Jiang, this is the information I found on the electric tricycle."

Su Lei nodded: "Possible, or it could be something else; we'll have to see it to know."

"Found it?" Su Lei was greatly surprised: "How did you find it?"

Otherwise, why would Xu Taining be useful? In this environment, even dogs aren't as useful as Xu Chu.

Several people understood Ling Nan's meaning and instead relaxed.

"Where is the need." Jiang Yuan laughed.

"Hmm, it should take them a while to finish over there. Let his master accompany you. I'll call the city again and call Forensic Doctor Wang and the others to reinforce."

"That's also true." Ling Nan considered it for a moment; there was no need to make any decisions immediately.

Watching Mu Zhiyang take the entire Second Squadron out, Su Lei returned to the conference room. ===== CHAPTER 594 =====
