Translator: 549690339
“””The deceased is fan Bowei, the director of the Xiangjiang Customs Department,”” a police officer from Xiangjiang introduced him to Zhao Yu, who was investigating the scene.”” 45 years old, divorced and single. He was killed between 3 to 4 a.m. On the 15th …”” ”
“””Then … How did you find out?”” Zhao Yu squatted down and looked at the white line that was drawn at the place where the deceased was killed. ”
“””Um …”” The police officer looked through the record and answered after more than ten seconds.””Fan Bowei went to work today. Because of his important position, the unit called him, but no one picked up. ”
“””In the end, the unit had to contact Fan Bowei’s relatives, who came to check, and then found the crime scene …”” ”
“””Relatives? What relatives?”” Zhao Yu raised his head and asked. ”
“””Um …”” This time, the young policeman panicked and quickly looked at the record. After a long time, he stammered,””it’s … It’s fan Bowei’s father!”” ”
“””So … The victim was carrying a Gu mantong …”” Zhao Yu asked again.””Did the victim raise the Gu mantong himself?”” ”
“””This … I’m not sure at the moment …”” The police officer replied, his forehead already sweating. ”
“””What?”” Zhao Yu’s eyes widened. This person has been dead for two days, you don’t even know if Gu mantong is his?”” ”
“””This …”” The police officer wiped his sweat and said,””the deceased believed in Buddha when he was alive. I guess … He should be the one who believed in Buddha?”” ”
“””F * ck, what do you mean by”” should “”?”” Zhao Yu glared at them and asked,””what kind of attitude is this? What, are you looking down on the special investigators of the central Criminal Division?”” ”
“””No… No, no, no…”” The young police officer quickly nodded and bowed.””I … I’ll go and ask. I’m sorry, Sir …”” ”
“After that, the young police officer quickly took his record book and made a phone call … ”
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu scanned the scene and found that inspector Cheng was nowhere to be seen. He didn’t know if he was hiding somewhere smoking or making a phone call.
It seemed that his previous worries were not unnecessary. The style of the local police officers was indeed very different from that of the mainland.
“He could clearly see that this wasn’t the problem of the junior police officer at all, but the local police playing tricks behind his back. ”
“Since they knew that Zhao Yu was here to investigate, why didn’t they send an experienced police officer to assist them, but instead sent a rookie? ”
It seemed that handling cases in a different place was definitely not as comfortable as before.
“However, Zhao Yu thought about it again. If he were the local police here, he would definitely feel conflicted, right? ”
“Forget it, Zhao Yu put aside his prejudice and began to observe the scene carefully. ”
“Judging from the decorations in the victim’s house, fan Bowei was indeed a devout Buddhist. There was a shrine in the house, where a Bodhisattva was enshrined. There were also many incense burners and offerings … ”
“However, Zhao Yu knew that the Goman thong was actually a folk custom from Southeast Asia, and had nothing to do with Buddhism. ”
“Therefore, without an important statement, it was impossible to confirm that the Gu mantong fan Bowei had when he died was his own. ”
“If not, then it could not be said that this case and the previous Gu mantong murder case were committed by the same murderer. ”
“Whether it was an imitation or the return of the Gu mantong killer, they would have to rely on the Gu mantong in the hands of the deceased to judge. ”
“Looking around the scene, Zhao Yu found that most of fan Bowei’s rooms were surprisingly clean and tidy. The items were neatly arranged, and there was not a single speck of dust. Only the bedroom of the deceased was a little messy. ”
“Because the victim was poisoned by the murderer while she was asleep, her bed was a mess, and some of the bedding had slipped to the ground. ”
“According to the traces at the scene, Zhao Yu could tell that the murderer must have started from the bedroom. He had used a rope that he had prepared in advance to tie around the victim’s neck, then dragged her along the floor to the living room. Finally, he tightened the rope and strangled the victim to death. ”
“The deceased might have had an absolute advantage in strength, causing the deceased to be unable to resist at all at the time, so there were no traces of a fight at the scene. ”
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu looked at the scene and imagined himself as the victim. He went through the scene over and over again.
“””Sir, Sir …”” At this time, the police officer who had left earlier ran back and said,””I’ve already asked fan Bowei’s family, but his family gave a vague answer, so we can’t be sure if Gu mantong is his.”” ”
“””What? You can’t be sure?”” Zhao Yu frowned.””What do you mean by vague?”” ”
“””Fan Bowei is single and divorced, so his family doesn’t know if he used to raise a Gu mantong!”” The young police officer replied,””also, some people have impure intentions in providing for Gu man’s children, so they generally don’t want others to know. ”
“””But …”” The young policeman opened a document and handed it to Zhao Yu.””We found a natural fragrance in fan Bowei’s drawer, as well as some children’s biscuits in the refrigerator. Those may also be used to feed the Goman children …”” ”
“Zhao Yu took the information and found that, besides the photos, it was written in traditional Chinese, which looked very awkward. ”
“””So …”” The young police officer said,””our officer thinks that Gu mantong was raised by fan Bowei himself!”” ”
“””Should be … Should be …”” Zhao Yu shook his head.””Are you guys investigating a case or writing a script? Let me ask you, what did the expert from Thailand say? He should be able to tell if Gu mantong was fan Bowei’s own child, right?”” ”
“””Well …”” The young police officer shook his head awkwardly.””I don’t know about that. He didn’t seem to say anything.”” ”
Hu …
“If it was in the past, Zhao Yu would have lost his temper, but now he had matured and knew that there was no point in losing his temper. Instead of losing his temper, he might as well come up with a plan. ”
“At this moment, the first thing he thought of was that he needed an expert himself. ”
“Because he found that the Gu mantong case involved a lot of secret religious knowledge, which was far from what he had been in contact with before, so he should find an expert to help. ”
“Secondly, he was still thinking about the Thailand expert named Mia. Through their contact just now, he seemed to have seen something in Mia’s eyes. ”
“The Thailand expert’s eyes were unfocused, as if he had found an important clue, but he had no intention of sharing it with Zhao Yu. ”
“Therefore, he should also put in some effort on this guy to see if he really had the medicine in his gourd. ”
In addition …
“Zhao Yu looked carefully at the shrine in fan Bowei’s house. He remembered that before he came, Mia had been staring at the shrine in a daze, as if she was thinking about something. It was his arrival that had interrupted her. ”
Then … Could the clues found by the Thailand expert be related to this shrine?
“Then, Zhao Yu stood in front of the shrine and looked at it carefully. ”
“However, he did not have much knowledge of Buddhism. After reading for a long time, he could not figure out anything. So, he took a few photos and left the scene … ”
