Chapter 44 High-speed Soul-stirring
Of course, Gu Tianyou would not believe that there would be such a perverted and stupid person in this world. He was lying in a ditch by the roadside, just waiting for the girl who came to pee to satisfy the evil desire of peeping. The truth was that by the side of the highway, in a weedy drainage canal, a person was lying in the mud, unwilling to die in peace. The mud buried his face, and it was only when the girl who was rushing by washed the mud away with her urine that he finally saw the light of day again.
After discovering the corpse, Gu Tianyou's first thought was to investigate and try to protect all traces of the scene. Although Fang Le'er was also scared, she still clenched her teeth and silently followed her left and right.
After the initial panic, Dai Yanan's emotions stabilized slightly. "Big sister, is this person dead?" She asked in a trembling voice as she moved closer to Fang Le'er with trembling fear.
The corpse was exposed to only a few orange corners of its head and shoulders, and its nose and mouth were stained with mixed mud and urine.
Gu Tianyou guessed that she wanted to ask more about how this person died.
"It's kind of like dying from choking on water." Gu Tianyou crouched down and lowered his head to observe carefully. "But you don't have to be afraid. He didn't choke to death. His face has corpses. The time of death is at least two hours. He definitely didn't do it himself. Hurry up and call the police. Also, pay attention to not wandering around."
Dai Yanan's face was still stained with tears. When he heard that he was not choking to death by you, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Standing there, crying and laughing and embarrassed. Looking at Gu Tianyou calmly observing the corpse and instructing Fang Le'er to call the police, he felt inexplicably safe in his heart and his breathing became much smoother. In order to conceal the embarrassment, he purposely said angrily, "What are you pretending to be calm about? Did I treat you as a detective just because I gave you a pair of glasses?"
Gu Tianyou deliberately sniffed with his nose and frowned, "Why does it smell like sprite? Could it be that the last thing the deceased drank was sprite?"
Dai Yanan was furious and raised his leg to kick Gu Tianyou's butt.
Forty-five minutes later, the police sirens rang from far to near. The people from the Criminal Police Unit of Jianye Traffic Sub-Bureau rushed over after receiving the police report.
On behalf of the three of them, Gu Tianyou told the Second Superintendent that he had found the corpse.
"The three of us took the Qinzhou Expressway at 10:30 a.m. and prepared to go to school in Jianye. On the way, because my companion was in an internal emergency, he found this face lying upside down in the ditch when it was convenient to get off the car. After that, he called the police."
Superintendent II's expression was serious as he asked, "You shouldn't have been in front of your companion when it was convenient, right?"
Gu Tianyou nodded and said, "Of course."
Superintendent II turned around and asked the two ladies, "When you found the deceased, was his face exposed or buried in the ground?"
"It was buried in the ground, so I didn't see him at first," Dai Yanan said awkwardly. This was the actual situation. That person's face was covered with a layer of dirt that was neither thick nor thin. If it wasn't for the fact that she held back a little too much and the pressure on her to come out was greater, this person might not have had the chance to be rushed out to reveal this small face.
Superintendent II nodded as he recorded. "For the sake of comparison, the three of you go over there and make a footprint." "In addition, in order to assist in the investigation in the future, you have to tell me the name of the school in addition to the phone number," he added casually.
Gu Tianyou told the truth. When this person heard the name of the Jianye Police Academy, he was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled kindly and said, "I didn't expect that he would be the future junior brother and sister. No wonder he protected the scene so well." He looked at Gu Tianyou and said, "Since you will be traveling together in the future, and you are the first to discover the corpse, do you want to tell me what you think?"
"As far as I can see, The victim's time of death was more than two hours, At current temperatures, The spots will disappear in about 12 hours, That is to say, at least for this period of time, Vehicles passing by here need to be screened, If it's a dump, And the body had been frozen or heated before, the time of death may not be accurate, "The exact test results will depend on the forensic doctor. The face of the deceased is swollen, and it is difficult to tell the actual age from his appearance. His body is completely buried under the soil. Thus, it is certain that he died unnaturally. There are no fatal injuries on the exposed parts. Therefore, it is not possible to make an accurate judgment on the cause of death. However, I personally prefer traffic accidents."
"Oh? Where did you see it?"
"Judging from the depth of the burial, the burier was in a hurry. The pit was not dug deep and the earth was not covered in thick. If he had been prepared well in advance, he would not have been washed out by a bubble of urine."
"Can you not talk about this bubble of urine?" Dai Yanan said angrily.
"Sorry, I'm just stating the truth. I have no intention of disgusting you." Gu Tianyou compensated for his lack of sincerity. He continued, "Since we're in a hurry to bury the corpse, "I don't think it was a premeditated murder, because there are obviously many places that are more suitable for dealing with corpses than on highways, and the reason why I judge it to be the victim's death from a traffic accident is also based on an orange corner of the victim's clothes exposed from the soil, which resembles a luminous safety vest worn by road maintenance workers."
"My assumption is, The victim was a road maintenance worker, Early in the morning, he was working on the responsible section of the road, It's blistering hot, The road guards prefer to work at that time, And that was the time when the truck drivers who were rushing through the night were most likely tired. A tired driver ran over and killed him. Because there were very few cars on the road, did the driver move the deceased into the ditch below? He buried the deceased on the spot with the tools of the deceased's labor and fled the scene. "
"Very well, in such a short period of time, To be able to make such a specific analysis and judgment, It means that you observed it very carefully. When judging the time of death, you took into account the time and temperature. It's very objective and not arbitrary. The last part of the hypothesis is very interesting. It combines the actual situation on the spot and has a detailed observation of life. It's very reasonable. If it's a college case analysis exam, I think you can get an A. " Superintendent II did not hesitate to praise him and said, "Gu Tianyou, right? I remember your name. This young man is very good. I hope that your studies will go smoothly and you will become one of us as soon as possible."
On the way out, Gu Tianyou was still thinking about the unhappy eyes in the ditch. He thought that if that person really was a road guard, as he had analyzed, he would be killed on the road, and a life would disappear just like that. He should be the pillar of the family at his age, right? An accidental accident had changed the fate of the family. Without Dai Yanan's Sprite bottle, it was unknown how long it would take for this person's grievances to be exposed. Perhaps by then, the bodies found would no longer provide any clues.
"Are there really ghosts in this world? They are secretly unwilling to leave, that's why they let us stop at that place?"
"Wow!"
Gu Tianyou thought about it and casually muttered to himself, but the attentive Dai Yanan cried out in fright. In the end, she was only an eighteen-year-old girl. She had never seen such a scene before. She spat out a face in a bubble of urine and stared at her with her eyes wide open. She was squatting there. This scene was also the daughter of Dai Xiaolou. If it was an ordinary girl of this age, she would have been scared out of her wits at that time.
Fang Le'er hurriedly comforted, "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid. Not to mention that there are no ghosts in this world, even if there are, I'm going to find that wicked fellow who uses smoke to scare people."
Gu Tianyou chuckled and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of. The one to be afraid of is the one who buried him."
It seemed that Dai Yanan was truly frightened, sobbing, and his soul was unsettled. He hadn't completely recovered from his shock on this journey.
Gu Tianyou said, "Why don't you stop reporting? Go back and ask your father to coax you first. There are still three days left before the deadline for reporting."
Dai Yanan was afraid, but he didn't want to lose his momentum in front of Gu Tianyou. He forcefully said angrily, "Thank you, but there's no need." '"Don't forget, my father is Dai Xiaolou . I went to the police academy to specialize in criminal investigation. If I can't even handle this, I still dare to do criminal investigation."
The car was quiet for a while, and the three of them were digesting the deaths they had witnessed with their own eyes.
Fang Le'er thought about whether she should continue to oppose Tianyou going to the police college. Just now, she saw a Gu Tianyou who she had never seen before. He was not inherently calm and wise, but a kind of fanaticism. The Gu Tianyou she knew before was calm, quick-witted, neat and orderly. He did things in a well-organized manner, and he had maturity that was not commensurate with his age. The only thing he lacked was the passion that was unique to young people. Perhaps, he really chose that place because he liked it?
Dai Yanan was still struggling to get out of his fear. Perhaps listening to music would work, but now he had connected the headphones to his phone. While listening to the music, he was immersed in fiddling with his mobile phone, as if he was chatting with someone and was busy with his work. Gu Tianyou's Eye Thief looked through the rearview mirror and saw a few chats on her phone screen.
Her net name is Seiko: Where do you draw girls? The one on the opposite side was called Smoke, and he replied, "Smoke on the train." Xi Gao Gao: I fucking saw a ghost in broad daylight. I almost got scared. Smoking is the wind: It's better to see the ghost than to listen to my mother here nagging, take the train all night, get up in the morning to see her, even more frightening than ghosts. Xi Gao Gao: I'm not talking nonsense with you. I really met a dead man's head and even peed on his face. Wind: What? Piss on a ghost's face? Are you scared to pee? Wasn't everything seen by that pervert? Seiko: There's something scarier than that. I wanted to save money on the ticket and get on the bus that took the fat guy's spot…
Just as she saw this, she was discovered by the little girl, and she was viciously looked down upon for a moment. Then, she hid behind the driver. Gu Tianyou thought to himself. So he had taken the place of her classmate's escort. Just as he was thinking, the phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Dai Xiaolou . He hurriedly picked it up with a Bluetooth headset.
Dai Xiaolou : "I heard you met a case on the road?"
Gu Tianyou said, "In less than four hours, the news has already reached you?"
Dai Xiaolou said, "Zhang Baohua of the Jianye Expressway Criminal Police Unit is half of my disciple. I was the one who brought him to practice."
Gu Tianyou said, "Isn't that the Second Grade Superintendent? Why didn't you call your daughter instead of me?"
Dai Xiaolou said, "There's no harm in a child experiencing something. I can't take care of her for the rest of my life. If anything happens, I have to rely on myself. Naturally, I have something to do with you."
Gu Tianyou said, "I'm driving. Please cut to the chase."
Dai Xiaolou said, "When I was investigating Meng Xianlin's social relations, I found a new clue. I'm sure you'll be interested."
Gu Tianyou pondered for a moment, "Is it related to someone in prison?"
Dai Xiaolou was a little shocked, "How did you know?" Then, he said, "It seems like you already have doubts."
Gu Tianyou said, "I was suspicious after I asked Old Geng about that. Meng Xianglin is Meng Fan's nephew. Old Meng was a high-ranking member of the kidnapping gang before he went in. He went in. It's not surprising that his nephew is helping him get to know a management cadre outside. Although Meng Xianlin is dead, this line is very likely not broken."
Dai Xiaolou said, "This explains very well how the information you received from Old Meng was leaked."
Gu Tianyou said, "This clue is still unclear. If you want to dig out something important, you'd better endure it first."
Dai Xiaolou said, "It's because of this concern that I didn't alarm you. I'll call you to confirm it first."
Gu Tianyou said, "If you need me to go back, you can talk."
Dai Xiaolou said, "We'll talk about it after you drop out of school. Even if you enter the profession after you drop out of school, you can consider yourself an intern. In the past, there was a precedent for students at the police academy to be seconded to the police force to help."
Gu Tianyou said, "You can still do this?"
Dai Xiaolou said, "Sometimes, in some special cases, interns are more useful than us old fogeys."
Gu Tianyou: "Sounds like a bit of a Seamless Dao."
Dai Xiaolou said, "Don't worry, I'm reluctant to let you go undercover, at least not until the kidnapper gang has finished this case."
"You're welcome when you need me," Gu Tianyou said. "You know, if I want to be a bad guy, I'll probably be more like a cop."
Dai Xiaolou said, "Now I completely believe that you really want to do this."
Gu Tianyou said, "I've already told you the reason. You just didn't believe me."
Dai Xiaolou said, "I believe you now. By the way, the case on the expressway has a bright future. I heard from Baohua that you even showed him a case study?"
Gu Tianyou guessed that his analysis might be wrong. "Just tell me the result directly."
"The result hasn't come out yet, But you're right about a few things, "The deceased was indeed a road guard. The time of death was this morning. However, Baohua found out at the scene that the cause of death was poisoning before being crushed by the car. The driver who buried the person was easily found through surveillance. The road guard's shovel was also found in his car. The focus of the investigation now is on how the victim was poisoned."
Gu Tianyou sighed, "This line of work is really never too old to learn. How did he know that the deceased was poisoned and died first?"
Dai Xiaolou said, "You didn't investigate the scene carefully enough. You didn't notice the dead insects around the deceased." "Criminal investigation is a kind of technical work, but the test is not skill, but observation. There is a pair of eyes under the forehead and a pair of eyes under the left shoulder. Some people can only do the work of taking notes and pulling cables for the rest of their lives, because they can't climb this threshold."
Hanging up the phone, she found that Fang Le'er was silently staring at her, looking thoughtful. Dai Yanan, who was seated in the back row, sang softly to the music, as if she didn't know that her father had just called.
Gu Tianyou thought back to Dai Xiaolou 's last words. Unknowingly, the car had arrived at the intersection of Jianye Expressway. At the exit of the highway, Fang Le'er suddenly asked for the car to be pulled over and said that she wanted to talk.
