◎Chapter 31    The Bamboo of the Corpse

Bai Jingyu: "I will give you a test question to test your special case team."

Hualong: "Are there any rewards for the exam?"

Bai Jingyu: "I'll treat you to dinner, but I can't answer you, you can treat me to dinner."

Su Mei said: "Okay."

Bai Jingyu: "The director of the detention center has a son, ten years old. Once, the little guy ran into the detention center and said to the director, 'Go home quickly, your father and my father are fighting'. Who can tell what's going on?"

Su Mei: "The child's father fights with his grandfather? Grandpa is at home and dad is in the detention center. Why do he fight at home again?"

Hualong: "I guess the child has two fathers, and the director of the detention center is a stepfather."

Professor Liang: "Let my apprentice Xiaobao answer this question."

Bao Zhan thought for a while and said, "The detention center director is a woman!"

The director of the Daze County Detention Center was named Peng Caihong. Before the incident, she suffered from gynecological inflammation. She was ashamed to say that she had a cold and asked for a few days off and rested at home. On the 23rd, it was rainy for several days and the surface was sunken. The wall of the detention center collapsed. Director Peng participated in the wall construction project with illness and disappeared after that. His family thought she was in the detention center, and his colleagues in the detention center thought she was resting at home until the morning of the 25th, several elementary school students digging bamboo shoots found her body. The deceased's pants were taken off, and his lower body was **, and bamboo shoots penetrated from the vagina into the abdominal cavity. After the rain, the bamboo shoots grew very fast, and the body was pushed into the air. It was terrible. For a woman, this way of death was extremely cruel.

Bai Jingyu said: "Captain Niu of Daze County Criminal Police Brigade investigated the scene and believed that the murderer handcuffed the deceased, stuffed a ball of grass into his mouth, carried it on his shoulders, aimed the deceased's underneath the tip of the bamboo shoots, and threw it heavily, causing the victim to die."

Professor Liang said: "A method of committing crimes by using local materials, the means of murder are inhumane, and the murderer has a strong psychological quality."

Bao Zhan said: "The murderer and the deceased should know each other and know that the deceased suffers from gynecological inflammation, so he humiliated her in this way."

Hualong said: "Why are gynecological diseases so serious? You still have to take leave."

Bai Jingyu said: "The medical record says ** inflammation, burning and itchy, and fishy smell."

Professor Liang looked at the case file and said: "The numbers made of this group of human bones are very strange. It is not difficult to determine whether they are coordinates. The difficult thing is that the numbers do not have a sequence. How did the local police distinguish the values ​​of the latitude and longitude coordinate coefficients? Who wrote this report?"

Bai Jingyu said: "Captain Niu, by comparing the direction of the skeleton, as well as comparing the Cartesian coordinates, plane coordinates plus map scale mapping, he determined that the coordinates point to the detention center."

Su Mei said: "Captain Niu, Daze County, this name is very familiar. When I remembered it, he almost became a member of our special case team!"

Su Mei turned on the computer and everyone came over with interest. The resume on the computer showed that Captain Niu was named Niu Baoshan, a first-level police superintendent. He was commended at the municipal level and above thirty-two times, and won the third-class merit or above five times. He has been a police officer for 20 years and has repeatedly solved strange cases. Among them, there are many major cases that have caused a sensation in the country and world-famous. His military achievements are extraordinary. When Professor Liang selected members of the special case team, Su Mei once compiled information about outstanding police officers in various provinces, and Captain Niu's name ranks first.

Bai Jingyu said: "This Captain Niu has a bit of awesome temper, I have seen it once."

After the special case team arrived in Daze County, they began to truly understand Captain Niu's temper. At that time, Captain Niu was arguing with the county public security director. The four of the special case team stood awkwardly and watched. The two were quarreling with each other and could not make any complaints. Captain Niu believed that they did not need to ask the special case team for assistance, and the director should immediately withdraw the application. The director felt very embarrassed and shouted, "I am the director, you are the director?"

Captain Niu pointed to the director and said, "Put me down with an official hat. Your county public security director is at the level of a full-time section, and my first-level police superintendent is also at the level of a full-time section."

The director said: "Okay, I won't argue with you. The special case team has come from all the way. Let's discuss it carefully."

Captain Niu said: "Then I don't care. I don't work with the special case team. This is my case and I don't need anyone's help."

The director said: "Do you know why you can't be promoted? Look at your bearish temper, you won't give anyone any face, right?"

The scene was very awkward. Professor Liang coughed and stopped talking. Captain Niu treated the four members of the special case team as air and ignored their existence. The county public security director smiled and apologized to the special case team. Captain Niu held his arms and looked out the window and said:

"The special case team is so amazing. In the case of physical snowman, it is even worse than a little girl at school and a few waste."

Hualong is also very angry, how can he bear the humiliation? He couldn't help but be angry. He rushed up and wanted to argue with Captain Niu. Bao Zhan stopped him. Hualong had a red face and a thick neck, and said, "Hey, how are you talking? Who is the waste?"

The county public security director also came forward and spoke kindly. He did not want to offend the special case team, and he also hoped that the special case team could assist in solving the case. Because the case was serious and the social impact was extremely bad. If the case could not be solved, the public security director's career would definitely be affected. Years of organizational work and rich experience played a role. The county public security director was quick to learn and fully mobilized the enthusiasm of the special case team and Captain Niu. The director suggested that Captain Niu set up a serious case team and investigate it separately with the special case team, and the two groups competed to compete.

Captain Niu said: "Competition is boring, we might as well make a bet."

Hualong said: "How to bet?"

Captain Niu said: "I set up a serious crime team. If the serious crime team catches the murderer first, it will be considered that the serious crime team will win."

Professor Liang said: "If the special case team first solves the case and arrests the murderer, will the special case team win?"

Hualong said: "So what if you win, so what if you lose?"

Captain Niu said: "If I catch the murderer first, you will lose. The four of your special case team knelt down at the gate of the county public security bureau, kowtowed to me three times and called the teacher three times. If your special case team wins, I will also kneel down and kowtow to the teacher, be happy, do you dare to gamble?"

The county public security chief said angrily: "Shut up, as a policeman, how can you treat solving a case as a joke? It's so nonsense."

Hualong said, "Look at your awesomeness, you're so shameless."

Su Mei also angrily said, "Kowtow, don't even think about it, we won't bet with you."

Hualong said impulsively: "Uncle Liang, I don't believe it if I bet with him. This guy is so arrogant. I want to see him embarrassingly kowtow."

Professor Liang said: "I have a disease in my leg and am over 60 years old. Why not change my kowtow to bowing, how about it?"

Captain Niu and Professor Liang slapped their high-fives, and both sides made a bet, and they conducted group investigations and shared resources. The group who first captured the murderer was the winner, and the loser had to bow to the other party at the door of the Public Security Bureau to shout three times. After the news spread, all the police officers in the county were excited and were waiting to see this good show. Some even bets privately among the police, and the police's support for the special case team and the serious case team were basically the same.

Both parties made a bet and immediately started criminal investigation.

Captain Niu is a workaholic, and he keeps his work going without stopping. He visited more than 30 people in one day. The special case team did not dare to neglect and tried to do the work in a meticulous and serious manner. The two parties had different styles of case handling. Captain Niu made drastic moves and did not even take notes when inquiring. The special case team handled the case in depth is an in-depth investigation and tried to capture clues from the details.

After the first day of work, Captain Niu investigated the social background of Director Peng in the detention center. Director Peng had a wide range of contacts, from important members of the municipal party committee to criminals released from prison, many friends and complicated relationships. When counting personal property, he found that Director Peng was suspected of accepting bribes and her lifestyle was also not well-known. Some people reported that Director Peng had rumors of having sex with the detention center.

The special case team investigated the human bones placed in front of the public security unit. These human bones came from the underground human bone craft market in surrounding counties and cities, and were mostly sold by tomb robbers and cultural relics dealers. Baozhan learned in the county crematorium that some illegal vendors even purchased human bones from crematoriums, and most of them were sold to the underground cultural relics market. Su Mei went to the Electric Power Bureau. On the night of the power outage, the Electric Power Bureau issued a notice on the county TV station that the residents of the county town knew about the power outage that night. It seemed that it was not easy to find a mysterious person who placed the bones.

The next day, the special case team and the serious case team were both stationed in the detention center.

The detention center is located in the western suburbs of the county town, next to the national highway, with a large canine breeding farm and a nursery base.

The person in charge of the farm is a Taiwanese businessman who specializes in breeding and selling Tibetan mastiffs. The locals gave him a nickname: Wolf Green.

The nursery base is also an orphanage. An old lady named Luo voluntarily adopted 65 orphans. Mrs. Luo is respected in the local area and set up a merit box in front of her door. For decades, past pedestrians have donated money and materials. In addition to accepting donations, Mrs. Luo mainly planted and sold flowers and seedlings as the source of income for the orphanage.

The detention center has one director and two deputy directors. According to work needs, there are several staff members such as guards, men and women in discipline, medical affairs, accounting, and cooking. Daze County is carrying out a severe crackdown in spring. The detention center is overcrowded, and many armed police soldiers carry guns and ammunition. After the murder, the detention center entered a first-level alert state.

The special case team and the serious case team visited the detention center accompanied by the deputy director. It was time for the release of the wind. The atmosphere between the detention center police and the detainees was very harmonious. Several juvenile prisoners were playing hide-and-seek, some were drinking boiled water for the prisoners, and they also put their own tea leaves. There was also a disciplinary policeman cutting the prisoners' hair.

Su Mei said: "Life in the detention center is pretty good."

Hualong said: "There are three things in the detention center: eating, sleeping, and sitting on the board."

Su Mei asked, "What is sitting on the board?"

The deputy director said: "There has never been any corporal punishment of detainees here. Sitting on the board means letting them sit on the board and recite the jail rules."

Professor Liang said: "I need a list of detainees who will be released in the near future."

Bao Zhan said: "Director Peng's murder may be the revenge of the detainee after he was released from prison. This possibility cannot be ruled out at present."

Captain Niu scoffed: "Investigating this is a dead end. Your special case team will investigate slowly. I will go to the crime scene to see it."

There is a bamboo forest near the detention center, which is deep and secluded and rarely visited. Director Peng Caihong was killed in this bamboo forest. The body was found by several children from the orphanage. Before going to school, he went to dig bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest and accidentally found a corpse that was pierced by bamboo and pushed into the air.

Captain Niu led the members of the Crime Team to make new discoveries in this bamboo forest, and they saw a strange bamboo shoot.

There were radioactive cracks on the ground around the roots of the bamboo shoots, and a bunch of soil was raised. Captain Cow used a shovel to dig out the surrounding soil layer, and a skull suddenly appeared. The bamboo shoots extended from the mouth of the skeleton and grew upwards.
