Chapter 85: Tryst and Death
Several people arrived at the scene where the first victim was found.
At this time, the area manager who received the news and the sanitation worker who found the body had just arrived. When they saw the police car stopped, they immediately went to greet it.
"Police comrade, right?" The slightly younger man came forward first, stretched out his hands to shake Gu Nankai's. Gu Nankai politely shook his hand and briefly introduced himself to him, then listened to him introduce: "Police comrade, I am Zhou Hao, the manager of this sea area."
He then introduced the old woman behind him, who was wearing a sanitation worker's uniform: "This is the comrade who discovered the body. If you have any questions, you can ask her."
Gu Nankai nodded at her and quickly said, "Auntie, can you take us to the place where the body was found?"
"Now that I am able to live, I can tell you that I was really shocked when I found the body. Oh, that scene was really disgusting!"
As the old woman spoke, her face was full of sighs and disgust. For someone who had lived an honest life, seeing such a scene was really shocking to the eyes. She pouted her lips in disgust as she spoke. The scene was really hard to talk about. Fortunately, no young people saw it, otherwise it would have caused a very bad impact.
Minjianghu is called a lake, but it is actually a sea. In the hot summer, the air seems to be salty. The sea is calm and sparkling. Gu Nankai's gaze crossed the boundless sea as if he wanted to see the end, but the end was nowhere to be seen. An imperceptible emotion flashed across his face, and then he quickly retracted his gaze and followed the crowd.
There are many large stones on the Minjianghu stall, most of which are as high as a person. Because this place has not been designated as a scenic spot and there is no landscape development, most of the places are known to the locals of Longhai, and basically only the residents in the surrounding areas come here.
"Police comrade, we're here! This is it!" Just as Gu Nankai was silently observing the surrounding environment, the old woman's voice sounded a little excited, attracting Gu Nankai's attention.
Gu Nankai looked over immediately and saw the woman pointing at a large rock and saying, "This is it! That person was found right here!"
Gu Nankai's face did not look good at the moment.
Just as he had thought, there were at least eight or ten such large rocks on the Minjiang Lake beach. It was not difficult to do something behind them. Moreover, according to his observations along the way, since this place had not been developed yet, there were no cameras or anything like that.
The problem was a little more difficult than he had imagined.
"Boss, this..." It was obvious that Gao Yuan and the others had also thought of this problem. Gao Yuan leaned close to Gu Nankai and lowered his voice and said, "In my opinion, this is like encountering a performance artist during a field battle. This place is a perfect location."
Gu Nankai choked and silently rolled his eyes at Gao Yuan, but it was undeniable that what he said was the closest fact to the situation at that time that he could think of.
Gu Nankai coughed twice: "Auntie, when you found the body, was it exactly the same as when the police arrived?"
The old woman nodded her head desperately: "Of course, I called the police as soon as I saw the body, and then I waited here for the police to arrive."
She glanced at the stone with a gloomy look and said, "Otherwise, it would be a bad influence for those young people or children to see you. You are naked and look like that. It is really unbearable to watch."
After hearing her words, Gu Nankai nodded to show that he understood. Then he squatted down and pinched a handful of sand, thinking about something. Cao Cang and the others also looked around and didn't find anything suspicious, but at this moment everyone noticed something was wrong.
"Auntie, when you found the body, was there no blood next to it?" Gu Nankai looked up and asked again.
The old lady recalled for a long while, and finally shook her head: "No, I didn't see any blood at that time."
She nodded affirmatively after she finished speaking: "There is indeed no blood, I can be sure of that."
That's strange.
"Captain, is the body being dumped?" Cao Cang asked with some confusion.
"But we have also seen the photos of the corpse. There are no obvious external injuries, and not even signs of a struggle. If the body was dumped, the characteristics of the body would not match. But the materials Team Two gave us show that the deceased died of excessive blood loss." Gu Nankai continued to observe the sand where the body was originally located.
How did the murderer manage to cut off the victim's genitals without leaving any blood, and how did he do this without the victim putting up any resistance?
This question bothered Gu Nankai and his companions at the moment. Suddenly, Cao Cang shouted loudly as if he had discovered something: "Come and see!"
Gu Nankai and others quickly came over, and the sanitation worker and the area manager also came over out of curiosity.
"What did you find?" Gu Nankai asked quickly.
Cao Cang was holding something between his fingers. From his movements, it was clear how small the thing was. However, Gu Nankai and the others were very excited. When they came closer, Cao Cang carefully placed the thing in his palm and said, "Look, there is blood on it!"
Gao Yuan widened his eyes and frowned, but couldn't figure out anything: "What is this? Why can't I see it?"
As he was about to try harder to see, Cao Cang quickly pulled out a magnifying glass from his pocket: "Take this and look at it. Is it clear now?"
Gao Yuan immediately took it and put it in front of his eyes to take a look.
"Oh! It's true! Captain, take a look!" Gao Yuan was delighted and immediately handed the magnifying glass to Gu Nankai. Gu Nankai quickly went to take a look and found that it was just as Cao Cang said. This thing was about the size of a small piece of gravel. Due to the passage of time, it was difficult to see blood on it, but through a magnifying glass, one could see blood stains that had dried for a long time.
Like ashes.
After Gu Nankai finished reading, Wu Qingluan and Li Meng took a magnifying glass and observed it.
"This amount of blood is too little. Every time I get injured, I bleed thousands of times more than this." Li Meng couldn't figure out what this amount of blood could represent. Could it be that this was the only amount of blood the deceased had?
How is that possible!
"No, no, no..." Gu Nankai knelt on one leg on the sand. They had quickly put on gloves. He took the thing whose material could not be identified yet from Cao Cang's hand and placed it on his palm. Then he took the magnifying glass from Wu Qingluan's hand and observed the substance in his palm through the magnifying glass again. His expression was extremely serious, and he suddenly nodded after a long time.
"Cao Cang, you are an expert in this field. Take a closer look. Does this thing look like a fragment of some plastic product?" Gu Nankai was still not sure about his judgment. He put the physical evidence in Cao Cang's palm and asked for his opinion.
While Cao Cang was observing, Gu Nankai instructed everyone: "Look carefully to see if you can find this substance . There are bloodstains on it. If we can find more evidence, we can prove that the murderer killed people here."
" Captain , could it be that the murderer destroyed the tools after killing the person?" Gao Yuan asked while lying down and digging the sand.
Gu Nankai thought for a moment and said, "It's very likely that if the murderer can set up a place to kill someone, this is undoubtedly the best place. As for surveillance, this is a blind spot. As for the flow of people, there are not many people here at night. But what if their purpose is to have a tryst?"
Gao Yuan immediately shook his head.
Thinking about the photo of the corpse, he couldn't even call it a tryst.
Isn't this an insult to the word "tryst"?
