10:30 a.m., Beigang City Funeral Home.
Zhao Yu, along with Xiong Wendong and others, arrived at the scene as soon as possible.
When Zhao Yu learned that corpse No. 5 had been cremated years ago, he could only draw two conclusions. First, Su Lan had borrowed the corpse to resurrect her; second, her corpse had not been really cremated but had been manipulated. Bag!
Of course, the first conclusion is easily ruled out, and obviously only the latter possibility remains!
Moreover, if Su Lan's parents really watched her being pushed into the crematorium, then there can only be one problem place, and that is the funeral home!
To be more precise, it’s a funeral home—a crematorium! ! !
The crematorium is a part of the funeral home. As the name suggests, it is the place where the deceased is cremated.
According to data, there is only one crematorium in the entire Beigang City. Since cremation is advocated locally, the work of this crematorium is still very busy.
When Zhao Yu and others arrived, dead people were being burned inside, and there were people queuing up behind them to be burned.
Zhao Yu originally wanted to check the cremator, but there was a raging fire inside, so he could only wait temporarily.
"Detective Zhao, Detective Zhao, there is really a problem!" Xiong Wendong hurriedly ran to Zhao Yu to report, "The employee in charge of the crematorium is working as a substitute. He said that Bai Lang, the supervisor of the crematorium, has taken sick leave. Haven’t been to work for three days!”
"Three days?" Zhao Yu exhaled, "It happened to be the day when the female body in the hanging coffin was discovered!"
"I... I have notified the Beigang Criminal Police Brigade and asked them to arrest the person!" Xiong Wendong said quickly, "The mobile phone signal is also being located!"
"Hmm..." Although Zhao Yu nodded, he felt in his heart that the chance of catching the suspect was not great. Since the suspect had been aware of it for a long time, he should have absconded long ago. If caught, it will definitely take some time.
"If you say so..." Xiong Wendong pointed to the crematorium in the distance and said, "Is there something wrong with this crematorium? The family members of the deceased watched the deceased being pushed in, and saw a fire burning inside with their own eyes...
"Then... then..." He scratched his head and said in disbelief, "Where are the ashes?"
"The ashes were buried in the grave," Zhao Yu said. "The family of the deceased is now going to the Criminal Police Brigade to identify the body. If it is confirmed, they will open the grave and inspect the ashes! Send someone to follow up quickly and accompany you throughout the process!"
"Oh... OK!" Xiong Wendong gestured to his men, and someone immediately went to do it. After the people left, Xiong Wendong said again, "Detective Zhao, so...even the ashes are fake
"It's so abominable to pay attention to the cremator. These people dumping corpses! Alas!" He sighed and said, "No wonder the female corpse hanging in the coffin has been put on make-up. It turns out... that make-up, The funeral parlor painted them for them!"
"Team leader, team leader..." Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Ke quickly ran over and reported, "I found it, I found it! Except for the last two, the first female corpse No. 5 was cremated from this funeral parlor. !
"We guessed right before, they are already dead!"
As soon as this statement came out, the police officers present were in an uproar. No one has ever heard of such a weird thing, let alone seen it.
"Five!?" Xiong Wendong wondered, "There are still two left, so where did the last two come from?"
"What a bastard!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu cursed and shouted, "Female corpse No. 6 showed signs of a car accident, and female corpse No. 7 was strangled to death!
"Do you even need to guess? The person who wanted to survive against the odds must have gotten worse and couldn't wait any longer, so they couldn't get enough dead people, so they started targeting the living!!"
"Ah..." Everyone's expressions changed once again.
"It's so... so abominable!" Xiong Wendong was so angry that he was shaking all over, "A murder! The two girls at the back... were murdered!?"
"But..." Zeng Ke said to Zhao Yu with a face full of anxiety, "Team leader, according to the data, female corpse No. 1, Ling Mengfan, committed suicide by cutting her wrists, but... she was cremated in September last year! It's nearly It’s been 9 months, and the body is in the hanging coffin... How... how is it possible... "
indeed…
Zhao Yu frowned. He really couldn't figure out the matter of corpses not rotting. Forensic doctor Gao Facai has teamed up with several experts to examine the body, and the result is the same as Zhang Peipei's, but they still haven't found the reason why the body didn't rot.
Because the body will eventually be cremated, the funeral home will simply put makeup on the body and will not do any embalming.
In this way, if you want to know the reason why the body does not rot, you can only find out by catching the criminal!
"Zeng Ke..." Then Zhao Yu turned to ask other questions, "What was the cause of death of the deceased?"
"Well..." Zeng Ke took a look at the information and replied, "Except for female corpse No. 2, which died of congenital heart disease, the other four girls all committed suicide!"
"Oh..." Zhao Yu asked again, "Where is female corpse No. 3? Is it suspected to be the one who drowned?"
"It was also a suicide!" Zeng Ke said with certainty, "The deceased's name was Liu Yueying, and he committed suicide by jumping into the river. Because it was discovered early, the body showed no signs of swelling and bleaching!"
"oh… "
"That's right!" Zeng Ke hurriedly turned on his phone, called up a report, and said to Zhao Yu, "This is the autopsy report you wanted last night. The forensic doctor has confirmed that, except for female corpses No. 1, 2, and 4, The other girls are no longer virgins!"
"Ah? No?" Zhao Yu was greatly surprised. Yesterday, Master Zhang made it clear that if you want to defy heaven and prolong your life, it would be more appropriate to use a pure Yin corpse. But aren't all these girls virgins
Could it be that... are there any objections to the criminal's purpose
"Leader, leader..." At this time, one of Xiong Wendong's subordinate police officers quickly ran over and reported to Zhao Yuhui, "We just checked the surveillance and couldn't find it too early, but we found out about the situation of corpse No. 5. Obvious problem... Come and take a look!"
After saying that, the person immediately led Zhao Yu and others to the monitoring room of the funeral home.
While walking, he added: "Body No. 5 was cremated three months ago.
“The funeral home is short of manpower, and the monitoring is basically unsupervised. Only when something goes wrong will someone call in to check.
"But, the director told me, what can happen to the funeral home? So on weekdays, the surveillance is just a decoration... "
While talking, everyone has arrived at the control room. Not only are the police officers from the technical team on site, but the director of the funeral home is also waiting here!
Seeing Zhao Yu's arrival, the police officer hurriedly opened the adjusted video for Zhao Yu and others to watch.
On the screen, you can clearly see that at ten o'clock in the middle of the night, a man in a white coat sneakily came out of the cremation room, carrying a huge and heavy woven bag on his shoulders!
"Oh... so..." Xiong Wendong said slightly nervously, "The bag contains the female corpse? Just like the group of people Detective Zhao met last night, the guy who burned the corpse used a blinding method in front of the family members. ?”
"This person is Bai Lang!" The curator pointed to the man in the video and confirmed, "That night, he was not supposed to be on the night shift! But he deliberately changed shifts with Lao Wang..."
"That is to say..." Zhao Yu turned around and asked, "That night, he was the only one in the entire funeral parlor?"
"Yes!" the curator said hurriedly, "In a special place like ours, we don't worry about thieves on weekdays! Therefore, our night shift always turns a blind eye, and some of them come to fight at most. After checking in, I went home and went to bed! Some people didn’t even punch in. I didn’t expect that... "
"Captain Xiong!" Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhao Yu ordered in a stern voice, "Immediately control all the employees of the funeral home! I suspect... there are also accomplices of the suspect Bai Lang here!!! "
