Director Wang led the team to take the first step.
Xiao Tang drove Li Changan and Zhang Suxuan and followed.
This time, the location of the crime was not a village in the city, but an ordinary residential area in the north of the city.
When several people arrived, the yard was crowded with police cars, and crowds of people gathered around the police cars, chattering and speculating about what happened upstairs, and there were even more people taking photos and recording videos.
Li Changan didn't want to attract attention, so he bypassed the crowd and went upstairs.
Arrive at the floor where the incident occurred.
However, I saw a group of police officers who did not enter the house, but only blocked the corridor. Most of them had pale faces, and some of them were even holding on to the corner and retching.
When the three of them entered the house, they immediately understood why.
The strong rotten stench filled the room, even covering up the smell of insects. Xiao Tang and the old magic stick turned pale, covered their mouths and rushed out. Li Changan also pinched his nose, glad that he did not come out of habit
A shot of dragon jade.
The deceased was in the center of the living room, and Director Wang was leading a group of technical staff busy around the body.
Li Changan stepped forward and looked at the victim.
Perhaps he had just taken a shower, and the deceased was only wearing a pair of underwear.
The corpse was normal from the neck up, the head was intact, and the skin on the face still had some luster. Even as a layman, Li Changan could tell that he died not long ago.
The situation below the neck was terrible. Even when Li Changan saw it, he suddenly felt his stomach juices surging.
His limbs and torso were covered with sores left by flesh and blood. They were as small as coins and as large as sea bowls. Bones were visible deep inside, and they were rotting and oozing pus.
Internal organs flowed out of the sores on the abdomen, red blood mixed with yellow pus, and white moths moved in and out.
Chief Wang and several police officers from the technical section didn't even frown. Not only did they look closely at each other, they even started rummaging through the rotten meat.
Seeing that others were so dedicated, it was not easy for Li Changan to get the title of consultant, so he bit the bullet and cast the Chonglong Jade Talisman.
After a while.
Li Changan fled out of the door and joined the vomiting army in the corridor.
He was holding on to the corner of the wall, his face turning pale and blue.
No matter how many times he uses it, the smell can refresh his patience.
Unfortunately, even though Li Changan vomited out his lunch, he found nothing. Although the smell of "gu" remained on the corpse, the core of the spell - the big bug with crystal fragments in its body was nowhere to be seen.
No wonder there are no swarms of flies chasing away the living people.
He originally planned to follow the invisible thread on the insect and find the caster or another victim.
Now it seems that we can only hope to find other clues.
……………………
Li Changan went to another floor to get some fresh air. The sour smell in the corridor was really unpleasant.
When he returned to the scene, Director Wang was instructing a group of police officers to collect the corpse. As for the maggots, they were hidden deep inside the corpse. For a while, they had no choice but to think of ways to deal with them later.
At this time, Li Changan noticed that Director Wang had a strange look on his face. His face was not the usual business-like expression of an old police officer, nor was it filled with passionate indignation, but rather sadness mixed with remembrance.
Looking at the other police officers, most of them looked the same, and a few younger female police officers even covered their mouths and sobbed softly.
"Do you know the deceased?"
Li Changan walked to Xiao Tang and asked in a low voice.
"His name is Sun Yong." Xiao Tang looked complicated, "He is a former colleague of ours."
"Before?"
"He was fired from the police force not long ago..." Xiao Tang hesitated for a while and whispered. "He made a mistake at work...Hey, why are you talking about this? He is no longer here, and he is still gone like this..."
Xiao Tang showed that he couldn't bear it, but he didn't want to talk any more, but Li Changan didn't let it go and continued to ask: "What's the mistake?"
This is not his gossip, he just thinks that this may be a breakthrough.
Xiao Tang, who had always been kind and amiable, became a little unhappy when he was questioned in this way. It seemed that the mistakes Sun Yong made were a dark history not only for him personally, but perhaps for the entire police force.
But Li Changan was a ruthless master, and he still pursued the question relentlessly.
"What exactly was the mistake?" Seeing that the other party was unwilling to answer, he added, "The cause of your colleague's death was probably revenge!"
"Retaliation? How is that possible?" Xiao Tang laughed dumbly, "Just a white poisonous insect? He got a lot of money afterwards, I don't know how happy he is!"
"White poisonous insect?" Li Changan suddenly thought of the man who was so thin that he was almost a withered skeleton, "Bai Xiuye."
"it's him."
"This matter was originally suppressed by the higher authorities and a silence order was issued."
Xiao Tang was stared at by Li Changan's sword-like gaze for a while, but he couldn't bear it anymore. He glanced at Director Wang, then carefully pulled Li Changan aside and explained in a low voice.
"Well, Bai Xiuye is a fan addict. Not long ago, he was caught on the spot and sent to forced drug rehabilitation. The person who sent him to the drug rehabilitation center at that time was Sun Yong."
"Detoxification?" What Zhang Qian told him came to Li Changan's mind. "Don't he have a daughter? He went to a drug rehabilitation center. What will happen to his daughter?"
"That's why..." Xiao Tang said bitterly, "It is said that before Bai Xiuye was sent to drug rehabilitation, he kowtowed to Sun Yong and told Sun Yong that his daughter was still at home, but at that time, Sun Yong was cheated on by his girlfriend.
, he was confused all day long, and he didn’t know whether he had forgotten it or simply didn’t hear it.”
"When we think about that little girl again..." Xiao Tang took out a cigarette and held it between his lips, but he still didn't light it.
"Everyone is already dead, and the door is covered with dried blood marks..."
Xiao Tang closed his eyes and did not continue talking, and Li Changan did not continue to ask questions. The scene could already be imagined.
He said coldly: "Dereliction of duty!"
Xiao Tang nodded.
"After the incident happened, the superiors were worried that if the incident spread, the social impact would be too bad, so they suppressed the incident. Several people involved should be fired and sentenced. Sun Yong should have been in, but
He has some connections in his family...I just didn’t expect..."
"You can escape the law, but you can't escape murder."
Xiao Tang smiled and said nothing. As a police officer, he was not suitable to say such things.
"Speaking of which, Sun Yong deserves it! There are also neighbors like Bai Xiuye. The little girl's hands were smashed when she banged the door. Don't ask, just call the community police."
"Bai Xiuye's neighbor?" Li Changan said quietly, "I'm afraid he's almost dead."
"You mean..." Xiao Tang's eyes widened, but he quickly shook his head, "How is that possible? Bai Xiuye didn't say a word after that. He did whatever he was supposed to do, and even asked for a large amount of hush money..."
Li Changan was noncommittal. A person who has made up his mind would not say anything loudly. He just asked:
"Is he a local?"
"no."
People like Bai Xiuye have quite extensive files in the police station, so Xiao Tang answered immediately.
"His household registration is in Qiannan, he is..."
Xiao Tang shivered violently.
"...Miao people!"
Li Changan's pupils narrowed slightly, and he had already made up his mind.
Suddenly.
However, the old magic stick rushed out from the corner and grabbed Li Changan. His face was pale and his body was a little shaky.
"Mr. Li, help...save..."
This old bastard had been eavesdropping from behind, but after hearing the final conclusion, he rushed out, looking horrified and dying.
Li Changan didn't know why.
"What happened? What happened to you?"
"It's not me, it's my daughter!"
The old magic stick grabbed Li Changan's arm so hard that his nails were embedded in his flesh.
"Captain Zhang?"
Li Changan thought in a blink of an eye, Captain Zhang was indeed still at the police station, but she was not Bai Xiuye's target.
"Oops!" Xiao Tang next to him slapped his forehead.
"That time, Bai Xiuye was caught by Captain Zhang!"
