Forensics

Fifteen years ago, on the night of July 15, it was a rainy night.

It started raining around eight o'clock in the evening.

At the foot of Luming Mountain, the rain was especially heavy.

In this dark night, only bursts of thunder and rain can be heard, and everything in the world seems to be submerged in the rain.

Then began the violent ground dragon turning over, every few minutes is a wave.

The young Wang Huishi wore a raincoat, walked to the entrance of the village, and threw a coin into a cardboard box beside her.

The old man in the commissary was dozing off, his head was nodding, his eyes were not opened at all, and even the noises just now didn't wake him up.

Wang Huishi took out a note and made a call.

"Hello..." The girl's immature voice came through the phone line, "Are you the reporter who came here last time? It's what you said, I'll let you know if I encounter an earth dragon. It's raining tonight, The earth dragon turned over."

The person on the phone thanked him and said he would come over right away.

Like a domino being toppled, the girl at this time was completely unaware that this phone call might change the fate of several people in the years to come.

Wang Huishi hung up the phone, and the girl walked towards home. Just as she reached the door, suddenly there was a muffled bang from the mountain, shaking the entire Wangshe Township.

The girl was taken aback.

Tonight's earth dragons are especially churning.

But all of this will soon have nothing to do with her, and she is about to leave here and go to high school in the town.

Wang Huishi looked at the pitch-black forest and walked back home.

Three or ten minutes later, Yu Changen and Pan Xiaolin arrived at the foot of Luming Mountain.

They drove over from home in a hurry after receiving the call.

The car stopped at the foot of the mountain, and the thunderstorm continued. They climbed up the mountain wearing dark raincoats.

The rainy Luming Mountain was very slippery. They climbed to a steep place. Yu Changen stretched out his hand and turned around to pull his wife, and then the two worked hard to go up together.

"It doesn't seem to vibrate anymore. Could it be that it stopped?" Pan Xiaolin was a little worried.

The rain had lightened a bit, and the thunder had stopped.

"It's almost here!" Yu Changen used his hands and feet together, "We are not too late."

He had a premonition that there would be a big news tonight.

In order to do this special topic, they have worked hard for a long time.

At the beginning, they planned to do a special topic on folklore, and the theme they chose was the turning of the earth dragon in Luming Mountain, but as the investigation deepened, they felt that things were getting more and more wrong.

They climbed the mountain several times, and they always heard strange noises from the mountainside.

There seems to be someone on this mountain, coming in and out.

The sensitivity of being reporters made them more certain that it might not be some so-called earth dragon turning around, but someone doing the trick.

What would those people do in the mountains?

As journalists, the husband and wife are good at conducting investigations.They are going to investigate secretly, find out the truth, and take down this news.

Tonight, they received a call and left their youngest son at home just to find out.

The two climbed halfway up the mountain, and the rain was still falling, but it was a little lighter.

Pan Xiaolin suddenly grabbed her husband and hissed.

Yu Changen also stopped and looked intently. In the middle of the mountain on a dark and rainy night, less than ten meters away from them, stood several men in raincoats.

As media reporters, they recognized that the person standing in the middle of those people looked familiar.

Feeling that something was wrong, the couple knelt down, carefully hiding in the dark, and listened to their conversation.

Yu Changen picked up the camera in his hand and clicked on the video.

What they saw was Zhen Jiaxu and a few of his subordinates.

A person standing next to him was nervously stammering to report to Zhen Jiaxu.

The husband and wife are a little far away, and with the sound of rain, they can only hear some conversations intermittently.

"When it was detonated...the mine collapsed...water permeated...the people were still below...what should I do? Do you want to save people?" The man said anxiously, wiping the rainwater off his face with his hands, his expression was almost like I cried anxiously.

Zhen Jiaxu's expression became serious, he frowned, then shook his head: "No, this matter cannot be let others know, otherwise we... will all die."

Yu Changen and Pan Xiaolin whispered in whispers: "They seem to have exploited a private mine here, encountered a flood accident, and some people were trapped inside."

The wife frowned: "Then this is a matter of human life... We have to find a way to call the police. We can't just let those people die like this."

Pan Xiaolin's heart was pounding. Instead of rescuing, the people in front of him wanted to cover up the accident.

It was too dangerous here, they had to find a way to get out, Pan Xiaolin gestured to her husband to withdraw.Yu Changen nodded at her.

They stepped carefully and were about to leave, but Yu Changen's foot suddenly stepped on a branch and made a soft sound.

The faces of both of them changed, it's too bad!

They hurriedly got up and ran down the mountain.

When the branch moved, Zhen Jiaxu and his subordinates also heard a voice: "There is someone!"

"Catch them!"

"Don't let them run away."

Several subordinates rushed out, towards the corner where Yu Changen and his wife were hiding.

On the dark mountain road, Yu Changen wanted to protect his wife, but the other party had a lot of people after all.

They used up too much energy when they went up the mountain, and after a while, Pan Xiaolin was caught.

Yu Changen turned back to save his wife, but was also caught by those people.

Several subordinates searched their bodies and saw the press cards they carried with them.

"It's a reporter! How did you find this place?"

The subordinates handed the two press cards to Zhen Jiaxu and asked him, "Mr. Zhen, what should we do now?"

Zhen Jiaxu lowered his head and thought, this gold mine has been secretly opened here for several years, and they mined nearly 90.00% of the gold in the mine.This place will soon become an abandoned mine. Before that, he had considered how to deal with the disabled workers who mined here.

Those people were all imprisoned here by them, and they lived and ate in the mountains.Some of them are dumb who can hear voices, and some are just disabled with normal intelligence. If these people go out, the secret of the private mine will be discovered.

Today's flooding accident trapped those people in the mine, and they cannot be rescued at this time.

Now add these two reporters who broke the truth.

Over the past few years, the profits from gold mining have continued to flow. Zhen Jiaxu has become a wealthy businessman in Penang through money laundering. Now it is time to stop.

He had to deal with this matter cleanly so that this kind of life could continue.

Zhen Jiaxu thought of this, and said decisively: "Throw them into the mine pit too. Then, blow up here."

"Blow up here?!" The subordinates exclaimed, and now there are more than 20 lives in the mine.

"It's strange, it's their fate." Zhen Jiaxu's face was distorted and fierce, "Don't worry, I will be the one if something goes wrong. No one will find out about it."

Pan Xiaolin, who heard the conversation next to her, felt ashamed. She realized what these people were going to do.

She cried and begged those people: "Please, let us go..."

But Yu Changen said: "Don't ask them! Someone will find out about all this!"

No one noticed that the camera hanging on his chest was still running, recording all this.

These subordinates were cronies who had followed Zhen Jiaxu for many years. They knocked the couple unconscious and dragged them into a mine several meters deep.

Ten minutes later, there was a bang, another violent earthquake.

The mines of the gold mines were blown up, and huge boulders completely covered everything up.

Later, they disposed of the car driven by Yu Changen and his wife, eliminating all traces.

The wind and rain gradually stopped, and everything gradually returned to calm.

Time has passed, and several years have passed, the entrance of the mine has been filled and green trees have been planted.

Patches of green cover these crimes.

Those lives just disappeared in Luming Mountain and became a secret that no one knows.

Fifteen years later, on Luming Mountain.

After the bang, the monsters dispersed, and the long-sealed mine was finally opened again.

A hole opened in front of everyone, and a puff of white smoke rose from the hole.

In order to prevent poisonous gas under the mine.The first people to enter were several physical evidence personnel wearing gas masks, as well as geological experts familiar with the mine structure.Guan Haiyi led the team and was the first to explore the road. He went down for more than ten minutes and came up from the mine.

Guan Haiyi took off his gas mask, took a big breath of fresh air, and then the first sentence was: "It's too miserable down here!"

Secretary Cui asked: "Are you sure it's a gold mine? What did you find?"

Guan Haiyi said: "It's an abandoned mine. It's very big underneath. There are dead people. I don't know how many corpses there are."

The geological expert also said: "The groundwater has dropped recently, and the permeable water has already gone down. The structure of the mine is relatively stable, and it is safe to enter and search."

Hearing this, Secretary Cui frowned, and hurriedly called the provincial leaders.After the communication, he said to Gu Yanchen: "The leaders attach great importance to this case and must conduct a thorough investigation."

After the air inside has dissipated slightly and it is confirmed that it is harmless to the human body, the forensic doctor and criminal police will enter.

Gu Yanchen, Yu Shen and Lu Ying entered the cave and simply cleared the roadblocks to facilitate forensic work.

Shen Junci, Liu Shurong, Wen Wan, Cheng Gong, Song Qiancheng, Qi Yi'an, several forensic doctors also descended inside wearing protective suits, and they were holding flashlights and searchlights.

The mine road was slanted, and walking all the way down, everyone came to a platform, and saw several dead bodies in miners' clothes lying in the corner against the wall.

Not far forward, everyone found a new corpse, and further forward, and...

There were even some corpses curled up in the corners of the mine.

One of the corpses had a few words scratched on the stone next to it: "My name is Lu Guojun. Help!"

After the mine accident, many people are still alive.

Seeing the tragic scenes in front of them, all the forensic doctors and criminal policemen gritted their teeth.

Due to the age, most of the corpses have been completely boned.

With such a tragic scene, one can imagine the tragic and painful process those people experienced before their death.

No matter how shocking the scene in front of you is, forensic doctors and physical evidence must start working.

The first step in forensic work is to label all the bones.

Shen Junci was doing the inspection. It was dark in the mine and he couldn't make detailed records. He could only record it with a recording pen.

Qi Yi'an kept taking pictures with the camera, recorded the condition of each corpse, and then numbered the corpses according to their location, put them into body bags, and transported them to the entrance of the mine.

"Boneless corpse No. 25, male, with obvious soaking marks on the bones and clothes of the corpse, died in a coal mine flooding accident, estimated age is about 15 years old. The time of death is [-] years ago."

……

"Skeletonized Corpse No. 32, male, with bone lacerations in the skull, the body was buried in rocks under the mine, and died of mine collapse caused by underground blasting. The estimated age is about [-] years old."

……

Shen Junci found two corpses wearing raincoats in the corner. Among the other corpses wearing miners' uniforms, these two corpses stood out.

"Bone bones No. 16, No. 17, one corpse is male, the other corpse is female..."

Shen Junci suddenly stopped.

He didn't continue to check, but called back, "Yu Shen!"

Yu Shen who was working hurriedly got up and came over.

Shen Junci pointed to the corpse in front of him, patted his shoulder, and said to him: "I'll check the other corpses first."

Yu Shen realized something, and opened the corner of the raincoat with trembling hands. Even if he was not a professional forensic doctor, he could tell that one of the corpses was a woman with long hair.The other was a male corpse.

Yu Shen saw a watch on the wrist of the male corpse, and then he saw a familiar red silk scarf on the neckline of the female corpse, which was tied around the neck by his mother that night.

Fifteen years ago, he once tiptoed to help his mother straighten the silk scarf, and kissed her cheek coquettishly.

He also remembers his mother telling him to watch the house, saying she and his father would be back soon.

But they have never returned since.

This is a meeting spanning 15 years, and he is no longer the little boy he was back then.

Although he had expected it in his heart, when he saw this scene with his own eyes, he still felt sour.

He found out that his mom and dad were cuddled until their deaths.

Yu Shen's eyes were wet. He suppressed tears and whispered, "Mom and Dad, I finally found you. I'll take you home."

Physical evidence and forensic doctors came to help collect the remains.The woman's hand was removed, and they found several lines written in blood on the stone below.

"Yu Shen, my father was injured and passed away, and my mother will go to find my father soon. I don't know if you will see these words one day. You have to remember that Mom and Dad will always love you. You are a strong child. We Will watch you from the sky. All the truth, all in the camera. Farewell."

Over the years, the bloodstains had turned an old red color on the stones.

After reading this passage, Yu Shen's tears couldn't hold back all of a sudden, and the tears flowed down suddenly.

Lu Ying stood aside, pulled him, and let him lean on his shoulder.He said, "Cry, it's not shameful to cry at this time."

As a young police officer who handled the disappearance case back then, the case that Lu Ying cared most about was finally solved.

He felt sorry for the boy he had watched grow up.

Yu Shen broke down in tears.

"It was you who found them." Lu Ying patted Yu Shen on the back, "Your parents will be proud of you when they see you growing up and seeing how good you are."

After crying for a while, Yu Shen walked to the corpse, knelt down and kowtowed three times, solemnly saying goodbye to his parents.

Then, through the glove, he picked up the camera held in his father's withered hand...

Outside the mine at this time.

Shen Junci has been busy all the time. He came up from the mine and counted the bones with Gu Yanchen.

The corpses brought out have been lined up in a row.

Black body bags lined up densely.

Each body bag contains a human life. The forensic doctors have collected 16 corpses, and there are still 8 corpses to be collected. According to preliminary estimates, including Yu Changen and his wife, a total of 24 people died.

There are corpses everywhere, and there are many bones.

Shen Junci checked and registered.

Gu Yanchen asked: "Can you confirm the cause of death of these people?"

Shen Junci said: "There are some signs of collapse and water seepage inside the mine. Some people died because of accidents, but more people were trapped at the time, and then struggled to the entrance of the cave, and were trapped to death."

The entrance of the cave was blown up, there was not enough food and water, and the air became thinner and thinner. They could only die in despair under this dark mine.

If the police were called at that time, these people might not have died, but because of those people, they slept here forever. It was not until today, many years later, that someone blew up the mine and restored the truth.

Those rich people are just stepping on these piles of corpses, squandering the money they exchanged for their flesh and blood, and enjoying the world of flowers and flowers.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanchen couldn't help cursing: "Beast."

Shen Jun said: "Judging from the corpses, these people died in the mine, but now there is a problem, how do we prove who is responsible for the death of these people."

As the police, they pay attention to the chain of evidence in handling cases, and all links are indispensable.

For so many years, Zhen Jiaxu must have tried his best to erase all connections between him and this place.

The scavenger deleted the dossier where these people disappeared, but this one cannot be used as evidence.

It was difficult for them to prove that this private mine was related to Hetu Chamber of Commerce and Zhen Jiaxu.

"I found a piece of evidence under the mine."

Yu Shen walked to them while talking, and handed the old Sony camera to Gu Yanchen's hand. His tears had been wiped away, and his back straightened.

At this time, he was not only a son who had just found his parents' remains, he was also a people's policeman.He will do his best to solve the case.

Yu Shen lowered his head and said, "This is the camera that my parents carried when they died. There may be something in it."

This is exciting news.

"I'll go to a technician and try to restore it." Gu Yanchen took the camera over. The camera was a very old model, it was damaged, and the lens was broken, but the memory card was still there.

Gu Yanchen held the heavy camera that was exchanged for two lives, thought for a while and said: "In order to prevent someone from destroying important evidence, I will handle this matter myself."

The matter has come to this point, and there can be no further complications.

On this day, the search work in the mine continued from morning to night, and at sunset, several police cars and corpse trucks drove back from Luming Mountain and transported everything to the Penang City Bureau.

Fifteen years ago, those bloody and brutal truths will be revealed to the police.

At night, Penang East.

In the luxurious villa, Zhen Jiaxu hung up the phone after listening to his subordinates' report.

In just one day, Zhen Jiaxu's face looked much older.

He remembered the sentence that the reporter said before he died: "Someone will find out about this!"

Now, it's really happening.

The dusty seal has been lifted, and soon someone will find out that he is the instigator of everything.

At this point, he could no longer stop the police investigation.

Now he just hopes to delay the time as much as possible.

tomorrow……

At least until tomorrow night.

He walked to the terrace of the villa. From the direction he stood, he could see the most luxurious area in Penang.

Looking at all the bustling things, Zhen Jiaxu smelled a smell, which was the bloody smell of the approaching end.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and made a phone call: "Mu Yuwei, I have seen the plan. You will execute it tomorrow night. Even if I die, I will let those people be buried with me!"
