Talk About The Case

Chapter 57: This is not an accident

With this shout, a small group of villagers rushed out of the woods because of the shout. Even the brave young people stepped back because of the shout, away from the coffin.

Everyone gathered around and looked at each other. They all saw panic from each other's faces. The timid villagers shivered and their faces were pale because of the sudden appearance of the coffin and scorched corpses.

Except for the bugs that can be heard all the time, the whole forest was quietly around. Although there were more than 20 villagers there, no one dared to speak first.

In such a secret wood, no one can guess how this coffin and charred corpse appeared here, nor can it imagine that such a shocking thing would happen in a village that has lived for so many years.

The sound of the wind slapped the leaves in the woods to rustle, which made people feel cold, and also awakened everyone's sanity.

Everything found in the woods is not a coincidence, nor is it likely to be suicide. It is most likely a murder with premeditated. Although the villagers are simple, everyone knows that this kind of thing is unusual, and it is impossible to just let it be buried in the ground.

"This matter must be told to the village chief, let him decide." One of the villagers said.

As soon as this sentence was uttered, everyone began to talk again, and people's voices appeared again in the silent woods.

At this time, Xiaocheng hid behind his father, clutching his father's arm tightly. As for what he saw today, he was only ten years old and was shocked and at a loss.

Until the villagers left, Xiao Cheng was frightened. Although he received the condolences from the villagers, it still caused a lot of psychological shadow. In the future, he may not dare to dig the soil easily, and dare not run alone until no one is alone. Place to play.

After the police station in Qin City received the report from the village chief, Officer Song Yuan Song brought a number of police officers to the scene to investigate and collect some important evidence.

The police sealed off the scene, and the villagers could only stand and watch from afar, and no one could approach it.

Song Yuan frowned. He said to one of the police officers: "Check to see if there are any suspicious things around the forest, such as footprints, murder weapons, etc."

After the officer nodded in agreement, he walked into the woods and looked around.

Song Yuan walked back and forth at the scene of the crime, constantly thinking about any suspicious people who appeared in this town recently. He looked down at his feet and saw that the ground was wet.

The sun rose and the snow on the ground melted. He thought that there were really any footprints before, and they had already been washed away by noon, and it was unlikely that they would leave traces.

He sighed deeply.

Sure enough, his guess was correct. Several police officers reported that they could not find the slightest footprint, and even the murder weapon could not be found. They did not know whether the deceased was burned alive or killed in other places before being transported here for burial. .

"Have you not found any hard objects such as rocks?" Song Yuan asked.

"Officer Song, apart from some small stones and sand, we couldn't find any stones or hard objects that could be used as murder weapons. However, we found a match at the scene."

The police officer handed Song Yuan the match he found.

Song Yuan took the match and checked it carefully, and saw that the head of the match had been burnt to black. It was just a match that was too ordinary to be ordinary, and there was nothing special about it.

"I think the murderer used matches to ignite, and didn't use lighters and the like." Song Yuan said.

He walked out of the scene of the crime while other police officers continued their search. According to the information received, it was a 10-year-old child named Xiaocheng who found the coffin. He saw that the child was standing in the distance and staring at them.

Song Yuan smiled, walked slowly to Xiaocheng, squatted down, and stared at him.

Xiaocheng hadn't been relieved from the shock just now, and now he saw a policeman in a blue uniform squatting in front of him. Xiaoli thought in his head that this was the police uncle he saw on TV.

He thinks that the police uncle is here to catch bad guys, but he is not a bad guy. Why did he come here?

"Uncle, I'm not a bad person, and I haven't done anything bad." Xiaocheng said, with fear in his immature voice.

Song Yuan smiled at him again, reached out to touch his hair, and said softly: "Child, don't be afraid. Uncle didn't come to catch you. You are a good boy. Uncle just wants to ask you some questions."

Xiaocheng's father said next to him: "Xiaocheng, didn't you say that you have to be a policeman when you grow up? Now that you see the police uncle, you are scared?"

After hearing the conversation between the three of them, the other villagers finally showed a smile on their faces.

Xiaocheng's face flushed red, he lowered his head and whispered, "I'm not afraid."

Even though he said that, his timid tone was obvious.

Song Yuanqing said a few words in front of Xiaocheng's ear, and then Xiaocheng smiled on his face. He said, "Uncle, you can't lie to me if you promise me!"

"Okay, I won't lie to you." Song Yuan said.

"Then we hook our fingers." Xiaocheng smiled.

Everyone looked at the interaction between the two of them, and they didn't know what Police Officer Song said that made Xiaocheng break his fear of him.

"Come, tell Uncle how you found this coffin?" Song Yuan asked.

"Uncle, I used to play in the backyard at home, but I saw a black scorpion, so I slowly followed to this woods. However, the scorpion went underground and disappeared. Then I went to find I tried to dig out the scorpion, but the branch broke. Then I dug it by myself and found this." Xiaocheng said.

"You said you found the scorpion?" Song Yuan asked again.

"Yes, it's a black scorpion." Xiaocheng said positively.

Song Yuan stood up, touched the top of Xiaocheng's head again, and said, "Good boy, thank you."

When Song Yuan turned and walked back to the scene of the crime, the child's words still hovered in his head. He said he saw scorpions, but it was a rural area, and the area was relatively humid, and there was this forest in the distance. If there were any reptiles, it wouldn't be surprising.

Moreover, let alone scorpions in the woods, even venomous snakes, etc. are not surprising. I think Scorpion was lost, and I didn't know how to crawl into the backyard of Xiaocheng's house.

The distance between this forest and the village is not close, and there are few people inhabited. The dense trees and dense leaves make it easy for the murderer to be found here after committing the crime.

Song Yuan carefully observed the surrounding woods, and saw that there were burn marks on the ground and the smell of gasoline. It seemed that the murderer burned the body first, then put the body in the coffin and digged for burial.

Had it not been discovered by Xiaocheng by a coincidence, he would have been unaware of everything going on.

Since most of the corpse had been charred, with the experience of Police Officer Song over the years, he could probably tell from his body shape that this was a male corpse, but the real cause of his death could not be confirmed for the time being.

Moreover, no suspicious weapon was found at the scene. The cause of death and identity will not be known until the corpse is transported to the forensic department of the hospital.

For the whole case, Song Yuan still couldn't think of the key. He stepped up to the coffin and saw that the charred corpse had been burnt to black. The original face of the deceased had long been unclear.

He stood there carefully examining the black coffin, very curious.

Why did the murderer buy a coffin for the deceased when he killed someone?

If it was just an ordinary cremation, it would have been burned with the coffin, but the coffin looked good, there was no damage, and it could not be a cremation at all.

The coffin is a very ordinary coffin. Although Song Yuan can't distinguish the material, the coffin seems to be worthless, but why should the corpse be put in the coffin? Why not just dig and bury it?

Where is the evil manual machine?

Song Yuan couldn't figure this out, so he took a closer look at the inside of the coffin. He lowered his body slightly, and then looked sideways at the inward side of the coffin, which was dark and identical to the rest of the coffin.

He put on the white plastic gloves and stroked the inward side of the coffin lid, which was flat and flat, and he didn't feel anything.

He raised his right hand and saw some gray dust there. So he touched the middle point in the coffin lid again, and his whole body was shocked by this touch.

He immediately put his hand back, and touched it again after a few seconds. This was an incredible one. The part he touched on his finger was uneven, as if it were engraved.

Song Yuan took out the small black torch hung in his belt, and he took a picture of the place he had just touched. This shock was not trivial.

"Wang Long, Li Hao! Come here soon!" Song Yuan called out to two of the police officers.

The crowd heard his call, and the nearest police officers hurried to his side. There were fine beads of sweat on Song Yuan's forehead, and a lot of sweat leaked from his forehead because of his tension.

He raised his flashlight on the side of the black coffin lid, pointed to the font on it, and said: "Copy it for me!"

The police officers who saw this scene immediately showed surprise. One of the policewomen took out the small notebook she carried with her from her pocket and copied down the few lines under the light.

The world is unpredictable

This is not in my plan

Oh unbelievable

There are always unsatisfactory things in life

It happened that I met

i put a match here

Oh! So your voice is so beautiful

Are you familiar with such screams?

There are not many characters, there are only eight lines in total, and the first character in one line is in the shape of a match.

When everyone looked at the copied words, they guessed the meaning between the lines. Looking at these lines alone, everyone can basically guess on the surface that the deceased and the murderer seem to have a great hatred, so much so that these lines were carved on the coffin.

Song Yuan raised his hand and rubbed his temples. He thought hard about what secrets were hidden in these lines, and how these secrets could help him find the real murderer.

"Officer Song, what does the murderer mean?" Wang Long asked.

"I don't know, but judging from the font, it seems that the murderer is telling everyone how wronged he has been and the pain he has suffered for a long time. But you see, these lines carry a certain meaning. , But the sentence is not so fluent. At first glance, it looks more like something written by a primary school student. It is neither like a poem, nor a couplet, but it is more like a random written out of anger. But if you want to It is impossible to say that it was written indiscriminately, because engraving itself is difficult. In the process of engraving, patience is required, so these characters are most likely to have been engraved early in the morning."

At the end, Song Yuan almost mumbled to himself.

After he stood there for a few minutes, he couldn't think of the key, and a person flashed out of his head. If only he was half as smart as that person. Therefore, he made a decision: "Notify Director Wang of the Federal Bureau and let him send Officer Leng to intervene in this matter."

As soon as I said this, everyone knew it.

This is not an accident, but a deliberate murder.
