Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Evidence
Half an hour later, human remains began to be dug out from the scene.
The highly decomposed corpse was crawling with maggots, and the stench could be smelled two miles away.
Some onlookers at the scene began to vomit because they could not bear the stimulation.
The police officers nearby also began to persuade the onlookers to disperse to avoid leaving any psychological trauma.
Gradually, the crowd thinned out, leaving only those with strong mental qualities.
"Director Li, we have found part of the body. The skull is being examined, but the lower limbs are missing."
The forensic doctor in a white coat walked quickly towards Li Jian and reported the current progress.
"Have you searched everywhere you can?"
"We've looked for it. We've searched the entire area." A police officer came back.
While the two were talking, another police officer ran over to report.
"Director Li, someone was fishing in the river and caught a leg."
Li Jian frowned, then waved his hand and rushed to another crime scene with several police officers.
The two crime scenes were very close, only a few hundred meters apart.
A few dozen minutes later.
When Li Jian returned to the scene again, the report from the laboratory had confirmed the identity of the victim.
Su Xiaomei, a college student, had been missing for more than ten days after the police received a report.
The debris salvaged from the river and dug out from the woods just formed a complete body.
At this time, the technical department also sent the latest analysis information to the scene. All the street surveillance videos for the past month have been analyzed.
However, no unusual people were found.
"No suspicious persons?"
"How is this possible? Did the murderer descend from the sky when he buried the body?"
Li Jian felt angry in his chest.
Several police officers also had sullen faces and no one dared to speak.
It has only been over an hour since the body was discovered, but it has already become a hot topic. The Jiangcheng Police Station has also issued an order that he must catch the murderer within 24 hours and give an explanation to the people.
And now, no useful clues can be found in the surveillance video.
For a time, the case was at a stalemate.
Surveillance is a powerful tool for solving crimes. Many major cases solved in modern society are inseparable from the role of surveillance.
There are no clues in the surveillance, and no other clues, such as the suspect's blood or hair, can be found on the wreckage.
Then this case will probably become an unsolved case.
At this moment, Li Jian was under a lot of pressure.
If the case cannot be solved, it will not be just a simple matter of demotion.
At this time, the hot searches on Weibo have already been dominated by this news:
[A treasure hunter found a severed hand at the south gate of Jiangcheng Agricultural University. (Hot)]
[Jiangcheng Police Station is conducting further investigation and collecting evidence. (Hot)]
[Rumor has it that the deceased may be a female student who had been missing for several days. (Hot)]
[A leg pulled out while fishing! (Hot)]
[Provide clues to the murderer and help solve the case to reward 50,000 yuan! (Hot)]
At the same time, surveillance videos of this area began to circulate on major platforms.
Most of these videos are posted by nearby businesses in order to gain popularity.
[Surveillance video near the crime scene on 2020-07-09, everyone come and find the murderer.]
[2020-07-14 surveillance video, many men and women enter the woods together, is it a multiple murder?]
As soon as the surveillance video was released, many netizens began to look for the murderer in the surveillance video.
In less than an hour, most surveillance videos had exceeded millions of views.
But just like the police's analysis, there was no gain.
In the surveillance video, no one looks like the murderer.
There are countless comments below the video, almost all the passers-by guessed, but all of them were denied.
[Is it the old lady in red?]
[Could this be the driver? He went into the woods carrying a large bag.]
[I think the man and woman who entered the woods in the middle of the night are very suspicious.]
[They didn't take anything. Is it possible that they just went in to do good things?]
[Good things? What good things? Can you elaborate on it?]
[I watched all the videos and still couldn't identify the suspect.]
[Me too. Wow, this is so difficult.]
[I don't know if the murderer can be found.]
Lu An, who was at the scene, and the police naturally saw these videos, and they all speculated who the murderer might be.
"The hiding place is relatively hidden, but not dispersed enough. It is obvious that the murderer just wants to get rid of the body as soon as possible." Lu An slowly recounted his guess:
"The murderer definitely doesn't have a car."
"He is very familiar with the surrounding environment and knows that these are the only two places where surveillance is blind."
"When the body was dumped, it must have been disguised as normal."
"So, I concluded that he lived nearby or worked nearby."
The audience in the live broadcast room and the police officers present were all a little surprised after listening to Lu An's analysis.
This...why does it feel like you've almost identified the murderer?
[The anchor is awesome, he also knows criminal investigation.]
[F*ck, after listening to Brother Lu's analysis, I think I will find the killer. I'll go check out the surveillance video again.]
[I am Chao, 50,000 reward, here I come.]
[What is the guy upstairs thinking? Brother Lu might have already guessed the murderer.]
Several police officers, including Li Jian, looked at Lu An and motioned for him to continue.
Lu An took his time clicking on the video circulating on the Internet and analyzing it.
In the video.
There were men and women who entered the grove late at night.
There were also homeless people who went in with garbage bags to pick up trash.
Some people go in to take wedding photos or have a picnic.
The same is true along the river.
Since the scenery in these two places is pretty good and they are remote, they are suitable for dating and walking...
So it attracted a lot of people.
Such as residents in nearby communities, students, and so on.
…
It wasn't until a sanitation worker sweeping garbage came into Lu An's sight that his eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the surveillance video was blurry, Lu An had the skill of "Photographic Memory", so he could clearly see the murderer's face at this moment.
It was exactly the same as the murderer indicated by the system, without any difference.
Seeing that Lu An suspected the sanitation worker in the video, the police officers nearby looked at him sideways with questioning expressions on their faces.
The audience in the live broadcast room also spoke up.
[I was suspicious of this sanitation worker just now, but in the end I didn't find anything abnormal about him.]
[He came out just five minutes after he went in, and it was broad daylight, how could he bury the body?]
[I don't think so either, Brother Lu. I'm afraid your judgment was wrong this time.]
[Brother Lu is still suitable for treasure hunting, he can find treasures every time he digs, but criminal investigation and solving cases should be left to professionals.]
In everyone's eyes, this sanitation worker seemed to have no suspicion at all.
Because his every move is so normal.
It can be said that there are no flaws.
He did not show any abnormality in any of the surveillance videos.
Even if the surveillance video was high-definition, no one would have noticed that when he walked into the woods with the garbage bag, the bag was actually full of minced meat and human bones.
At this moment, if he wants others to believe Lu An's judgment, he must have some other evidence.
Hard work pays off.
Soon, Lu An discovered another abnormality.
