Chapter 910: Clearing silt

Pushui Town.

The fish pond where the incident occurred was not far from the highway exit. It had an area of about one hectare, which was 15 mu of land, almost square meters, just equivalent to the area of a playground with a 400-meter standard track. And the area of a football field often used in news reports is 7140 square meters, which is about 10.7 mu of land.

The water in the fish pond had been drained. The sun shone on the surface of the silt, drying out a thin brittle shell, but as long as it was touched lightly, the brittle shell outside would be broken, and sticky mud juice would flow out.

Shen Yaowei wore a full set of thickened leather clothes and jumped into the silt. Before he had time to speak, he felt his whole body begin to sink slowly, sinking and sinking, almost feeling like he couldn't touch the bottom.

"How deep is the silt." Shen Yaowei didn't panic, although his feeling at this time was about the same as that of someone falling into quicksand or someone trapped in a swamp.

The police officer from the Changle City Bureau on the shore said truthfully: "There is one meter in the shallow place, and more than two meters in the deep place."

"2 meters? Wouldn't it be submerged?" Shen Yaowei began to panic a little.

The police officer on the shore smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm pulling the rope."

"How can it be this deep?" Shen Yaowei was still sinking down, and couldn't help saying: "I checked the book, aren't ordinary fish ponds only a few dozen centimeters deep?"

"Ordinary fish ponds, where do you need to wear leather clothes." The police officer on the shore also smiled and pointed out Shen Yaowei's logical error.

Shen Yaowei looked down at the leather clothes, then at the silt that was getting closer and closer, and felt a little panicked in his heart: "It should be okay..."

"It should be almost at the bottom, after all, this is the shore. Normal fish ponds actually only have 20 or 30 centimeters of silt, so this fish pond has a problem. One is that it hasn't been cleared of silt for a long time, and the other is that it hasn't been raising fish for too long. The silt is getting thicker and thicker, so knowing that it sank to here, we initially suspect that it is familiar with the environment here..." The police officer on the shore had already begun to think about the case.

Gurgle gurgle.

Shen Yaowei felt small bubbles beginning to emerge around him.

"Brothers, pull, it's really a bit deep here." The police officer on the shore said with a smile, and then said to Shen Yaowei: "Open your arms and paddle."

Shen Yaowei hurriedly did as he was told.

The police officer on the shore shouted the number one, two, three, and pulled Shen Yaowei out with three other people.

Pfft...

A rope flew out of the pond quickly. Shen Yaowei only felt his body lighten and then sink, and his whole body suddenly tilted.

"What to do?" Shen Yaowei was really a bit panicked now, and fragments of various times in his life began to flash back in his mind, among which the scene of aiming and shooting in Sushan, hitting the criminal with the first shot, was particularly clear.

That was Shen Yaowei's highlight moment.

"Section Chief Shen, hold on." The police officer on the shore shouted in an emergency, throwing the slippery silt rope in front of Shen Yaowei.

Shen Yaowei grabbed the silt rope, and the police officers shouted the number again, pulling him up.

"Ugh..." Shen Yaowei climbed onto the shore. The smell of the silt in the fish pond was also brought out, mixed with the smell of the fresh and the newly dried, even more pungent.

"Give Section Chief Shen... a rinse." The leading police officer said, and someone took a rubber tube, squeezed it with his hand, and the water flow with a little impact hit Shen Yaowei's leather clothes, looking about the same as washing pigs in the village.

Shen Yaowei took a few deep breaths. After inhaling enough stench, he flipped over, and while letting people rinse his back, he looked at the fish pond as big as a playground in front of him and said: "How to turn things out in this?"

"That's what I said, but I told the leader, and the leader didn't quite understand." The leading police officer seemed to feel aggrieved, but all the words were gathered into one sentence, and he didn't know what to say.

"If we were searching for evidence normally, we would generally just dig the silt next to the corpse, and focus on the surface search. It's not necessarily that we would drain the water." Shen Yaowei also didn't quite understand.

With such a large fish pond, let alone turning the silt over, even swimming in it felt like using up all the strength of a lifetime. Where is it so easy to find evidence?

In fact, even searching for objects in muddy water is very difficult, let alone in silt. This plan itself is a bit difficult to achieve.

The leading criminal police officer could only sigh, thought for a while, and then said: "How to say, we have solved all the homicide cases for three consecutive years..."

"Understand." Shen Yaowei nodded: "It's just wanting a good reputation, and reluctant to spend money."

The few people in front laughed.

"Saving here and saving there, in the end, isn't it still finding Team Jiang." Shen Yaowei curled his lips. With Huang Qiangmin's stingy character, he definitely wouldn't let the Changle City Bureau touch both ends.

Shen Yaowei stood up, water flowing out of his leather clothes, and asked: "How do you want to do it?"

"The corpse in this case has a special situation. First, the corpse was tied with ropes by the murderer, tied with stones and then sank into the pond. The clothes on the corpse are complete. It is suspected that it has been soaked in the water for more than three months. During this period, our Changle City had several heavy rains, and a lot of water entered the fish pond, so we guess that some objects on the corpse, if they fell off, might have been washed away from the side."

The leading police officer here gestured while speaking, and added: "The situation of the silt is actually about the same. The fish pond here has been in disrepair for a long time, and a lot of mud and soil have been washed in by the rain. If it were a good fish pond, there would be measures to block it. The fish pond here is not managed by anyone, and the mud and sand washed in are likely to bury the evidence again."

Shen Yaowei nodded: "Makes sense, then how do you want to do it?"

"If we can't find the source of the corpse through the corpse, we can only pass through the items around the corpse." The leading police officer emphasized, and added: "We suggest using an excavator to dig out all the silt in the fish pond, at least dig it several dozen centimeters thick, but the cost is relatively large. Detachment Leader Lang has always let us exert subjective initiative. With such thick silt, how can we move it."

"This is easy to handle. Give me my mobile phone." Shen Yaowei reached out.

Someone handed the mobile phone to Shen Yaowei.

Shen Yaowei made a phone call to Huang Qiangmin, explained the reason, and then said "Uh-huh" twice, hung up and said: "It's settled, let the excavator enter the field in a while, we have to find another place to dump the silt, it should be convenient for water, and it's good to wash the evidence."

"Detachment Leader Lang agreed?" The leading police officer was surprised. Detachment Leader Lang has always had the philosophy of saving where it should be saved and spending where it should be spent. How could he agree so readily?

Shen Yaowei curled his lips: "Since our cold case task force is responsible for the case, Huang Zhengwei decides."

Of course, the subsequent expenses must be borne by the Changle Bureau.

The leading police officer realized: "Detachment Leader Lang is reluctant to spend, you spend for him?"

Shen Yaowei asked for 4 excavators in one breath, cooperated with a truck and several three-wheeled motorcycles in the village, and began to wash the evidence.

Huang Qiangmin gave the other members of the cold case task force a three-day holiday. When everyone came back from the holiday, Shen Yaowei's silt clearing work was almost completed.

The sundries cleaned up were enough to fill a room.

At this time, the problem everyone faced was suddenly not that there was insufficient evidence, but that there were full of objects, and they didn't know which one was the evidence.

Shen Yaowei didn't care so much, hired a car with money, and transported them all back to the Criminal Police Detachment of the Changle City Bureau.

The courtyard of the detachment immediately became stinking.

Detachment Leader Lang looked at these objects dug out with his own funds, most of which would not be evidence, and doubted whether he was too wasteful.

At the same time, Jiang Yuan, after briefly checking the corpse and the photos of the corpse, decided to give up the flesh of the corpse.

The weather in Changle City was hot. After the corpse sank into the pond, the speed of decay was not slow. Plus there were fish in the fish pond. By the time it was salvaged, although there was still some organic matter connected to the corpse, it was difficult to even do a DNA test. In the end, it could only be boiled in a pot, and only the white bones were taken for backup.

At this time, Jiang Yuan certainly still had the skull restoration technique available, but it was really too time-consuming.

In contrast, forensic anthropology seemed more noble. It only needed to look at the bones one by one, and it could read a lot of information. ===== CHAPTER 911 =====
