This shows that the murderer is at least two people. One picked up the body from below and carried it upwards as far as possible. The other put the rope hung in advance around the neck of the deceased!
Xiao Ancheng whispered: "Maybe two people are not enough, more likely it will be three or more!"
Chen Zifeng understands that this situation is even more serious!

Central Guard Corps, in the head's office.
Duan Zegang sat behind his desk with his hands crossed on the table. The expression on his face was painful.
Qiao Yanfang and Xiao Zhang sat across from each other at the desk, looking at him uneasily.
It seemed that with a lot of effort, Duan Zegang finally struggled out of the pain and looked up at Qiao Yanfang.
"On the way back, he kept talking to me, kept talking to me, and kept talking to me!"
"Yang Shangzhou?" Qiao Yanfang asked softly.
"That's him! He said he just wanted to protect the Chairman! He had no other intention! He said it over and over again! He said it over and over again!"
"Brother, you're bored, aren't you?"
"No! How do I know what he means? I can only send him to the military headquarters! Let the superiors decide whether he is guilty or not! I regret it very much. I really shouldn't have let him get off the bus!
"
"What's wrong with him?" Qiao Yanfang asked softly.
"He started crying at that time! He was almost fifty years old! He also had the rank of lieutenant general, so he just started crying, and his face was filled with tears! Now when I think of what he looked like at that time, I feel uncomfortable! I was early
Knowing his fate, I should have let him sit in my car instead of getting in the truck! I should have comforted him anyway!"
"Do you believe what he said?"
"I believe it! He can't deceive anyone with his appearance! He is sincerely trying to protect the Chairman! I believe him!"
"Brother, don't be sad. What you do is what you should do!"
"Xiao Qiao, has this case been handed over to you?"
"Yes, leave it to us."
"You guys are the smartest people! Investigate this case! That Yang Shangzhou also has a family! Clear his name, and his family can get pensions!"
"Brother, don't worry, we will definitely investigate this case!"
Qiao Yanfang paused and then said: "Brother, please think about it this way. Even if Yang Shangzhou wants to protect the Chairman, doesn't he know the military orders? Without military orders, the army cannot be mobilized! He is an old soldier and should understand this rule!"
"This Yang Shangzhou, I really can't say anything about him! He really should understand this rule!"
"Brother, could someone deliberately mislead him and give him bad ideas? Let him be fooled!"
Duan Zegang raised his head and looked at Qiao Yanfang with some surprise, "But even so! What's the use! He's dead! Who knows who was behind him!"
Qiao Yanfang said calmly: "Instigate a relationship between the central government and the local army! Or even provoke a civil war!"
Duan Zegang raised his head in shock and looked at Qiao Yanfang in disbelief, "God! If this is true, the intentions of the person behind him are really sinister! God, then the whole country will be in chaos!"

Confucian Temple, Minglun Hall.
Chen Zifeng looked over and over in the room where Yang Shangzhou was detained, and could no longer see any other problems.
He walked out of the room and looked at the large courtyard.
Leng Yue, who was not far away, saw him and led the squad leader back, saying softly: "This is squad leader Zhao. They are a security force affiliated with the Military Law Enforcement Directorate. They came from Wuhan and have been doing this job."
Chen Zifeng heard it right away. What Leng Yue meant was that the soldiers in charge of custody were from Wuhan. Without Sichuan people, there would be no personal grudge against Yang Shangzhou!
However, he still had doubts in his mind. The Japanese are best at poaching people from within! Flies don’t bite eggs without cracks! If someone is greedy for cheap and becomes a helper of the Japanese, it is possible!
He smiled and said: "Squad leader Zhao, how long have you been working as a corpsman?"
Squad leader Zhao said politely: "Sir, I have been doing this job for three years, which is considered a long time. The other brothers have also been doing this for two years."
"Isn't this a tiring job?"
"It's fair to say, it's okay. All you need to do is keep an eye on the prisoner, stand guard every day, stand guard, salute the officer when you see him, that's all. It's just that such a big case has made all the brothers frown.
Droopy eyes, five is not six, it is not!"
"That's right. Anyone who encounters this kind of thing is a loser. You soldiers, your salary is pretty good."
"This is not bad. They are all veterans, twelve soldiers, and three are non-commissioned officers. The other brothers get about ten yuan a month, which is more than enough. We who guard the prisoners also have an allowance of three yuan a month.
It doesn’t cost more than eight yuan, which is a reasonable amount.”
Chen Zifeng nodded. He also felt that it was pretty good for soldiers to have this income.
At this time, Leng Yue said softly: "I just went to their class and took a look, and the brothers were all looking at me. One brother said, Sister, if you want us to do anything, just say it! We all look forward to solving the case as soon as possible.
!”
She smiled at Chen Zifeng and said, "Nothing unusual."
Chen Zifeng understood what she meant. Nothing unusual, just no abnormal behavior! If these soldiers committed such a serious case, their faces would not be hidden!
Then, this case was not done by insiders, but by outsiders!
He smiled and asked: "Squad leader Zhao, once your big iron gate is closed, no one can get in, right?"
Squad leader Zhao said: "The four circles are surrounded by houses, and you can't climb up! You can fly!"
Chen Zifeng looked around, and indeed, as squad leader Zhao said, there were houses on all sides, with tiles hanging from the eaves. Without a long ladder, I was afraid he wouldn't be able to climb up!
At this time, Han Jindong entered the Confucian Temple from him and said his first words: "Squad Leader Zhao, where is the northwest corner?"
Everyone turned back to look at the northwest corner. After looking at it, they realized that the west wing and the north room were not connected together. There seemed to be a small passage there.
Squad leader Zhao laughed, "That's a toilet. You can't enter it. It stinks! The wall is too high!"
2-23
Chen Zifeng and his group had to go into that smelly toilet to take a look. Agents wouldn't care about this!
But as soon as they entered the toilet, they were still made to frown by the stench inside.
This toilet is a large tank buried in the ground with two wooden boards on top. It is considered an open-air toilet. Now in this season, Chongqing is getting hotter, so the odor in the toilet is naturally more intense!
Squad leader Zhao was a little embarrassed, "Brothers are not particular about it. Everything is stipulated in the regulations, except for cleaning the toilet. Let me just say one more thing, this toilet is paid for by someone. Generally, you come and pay for it once a month, and you use the money to water it.
Food. So, we... we don’t care too much. We don’t pay attention to it, we really don’t pay attention to it.”
Whether the toilet is elegant or not is not among Chen Zifeng's considerations. This toilet has the only small section of wall in the yard, and he needs to take a good look at this wall!
Squad leader Zhao understood what he meant and asked a brother to bring a ladder and put it on the wall.
Han Jindong carefully chose where to put his feet and then climbed up the ladder. He looked at the top of the wall and nodded to Chen Zifeng, indicating that there was something going on on the wall!
Chen Zifeng also climbed up the ladder and quickly saw the problem! There were fresh marks on the wall! He judged that it should be caused by the grappling hook on the wall! Someone climbed in from here!
If you look carefully, you can vaguely see footprints in the dust on the wall!
He looked outside the wall and saw that the wall was built on a stone mountain with a steep slope below. If a ladder was used, it would require a very long ladder! It would be too conspicuous to move such a long ladder into the Confucian Temple!
He got off the ladder and said viciously: "This is where people came in! At least three people!"
At this time, Leng Yue said calmly: "Lao Han and I are going to see the body now!"
Chen Zifeng thought for a while and said: "Let's go together!"

The hospital where Yang Shangzhou's body was stored is not far away, on Linjiang Road, and is called Kuanren Hospital.
In fact, Kuanren Hospital is an old name, and it was called this name when it was first established. Its current official name is Chongqing United Methodist Hospital, which was changed early last year. But people are used to calling it Kuanren Hospital, so they still call it Kuanren Hospital.
Smooth.
The morgue in the hospital is always the coldest, most humid, and the most frightening. It is as if there are ghosts hidden in the silence here, floating in the semi-dark underground corridors, peeping at people who come.
Chen Zifeng and others followed the administrator of the Medical Department of Kuanren Hospital, spiraling down the stairs and gradually entering the underground corridor. This feeling is also eerie and scary!
Finally, they entered a large and colder room, the morgue.
The administrator called on several morgue workers, fished out Yang Shangzhou's body from the formalin pool that exuded a strong smell, and placed it on the white-tiled operating table.
People like Chen Zifeng are used to seeing corpses. They have seen many corpses of various murders and corpses smashed by artillery fire on the battlefield, but they were still shocked by the corpse in front of them.
The corpse had been soaked in formalin and turned white, but the bruises on his body and the battered and rolled skin were still quite scary. Especially his face, one eye was swollen and purple, and his nose was crooked to one side.
, his mouth could no longer close, exposing his broken teeth! To use an adjective, he was completely naked!
Newspapers often described his horrific condition after being beaten, but these were only speculations because reporters could not see the body!
In this case, the most fortunate thing is that the top management ordered that no one, especially reporters, are allowed to approach the body! Let alone take pictures!
Otherwise, if such a photo is published in the newspaper, it will become a major crime against the National Government! Naturally, it will also become a major crime against the Chairman!
Chen Zifeng pointed to the hemp rope around Yang Shangzhou's neck, "Didn't you take this off?"
The administrator said: "Sir, I won't let you take it off, saying it's for the investigators to see. Sir, it's just for you to see."
Chen Zifeng and others gathered around the body and observed it carefully. They were all veterans and quickly noticed the abnormality.
