"Woof woof woof..."
Unexpectedly, just as Zhao Yu was about to enter, a big wolf dog suddenly appeared in front of him, which startled Zhao Yu.
Fortunately, the big dog was held by a police officer. The police officer pulled the rope and immediately pulled the big dog aside to avoid the crowd.
"Hey, hey, hey, can't you just watch it?" Li Yanxia was unhappy, "Don't let it bite anyone again!"
The police officer holding the dog did not say anything, but made an apologetic gesture to Captain Li, and then quickly walked away with the dog.
"It's okay, it's okay..." Captain Li hurriedly explained to Zhao Yu and the other two, "This is a police dog from the criminal police team, specially sent to search the Yu family's old house."
"Don't tell me..." Zhao Yu said to Miao Ying, "Look, this dog looks very much like Tycoon! They are similar in size and appearance. If I had known, I might as well have brought Tycoon out for a walk with me!"
"Come on, this is a regular police dog!" Miao Ying shook her head and said, "The tycoon is now being fed by your mother, and if he doesn't get trained, he will be useless!"
"Also..." Zhao Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he thought of his tycoon. For a long time, I have been busy and completely ignored the dog tycoon.
Although the tycoon is an expert in "literature and history", he has helped him solve many cases before. It is indeed inappropriate to bury him in his hometown like this.
Therefore, Zhao Yu silently made up his mind. When this case is over, he will return to Qinshan and find a way to send the tycoon to the police dog team so that he can improve his quality and serve the police!
"Hmm... who is the tycoon? Is he also your police dog?" Captain Li asked curiously after hearing Zhao Yu's words.
However, Zhao Yu had no intention of answering and had already walked straight into the courtyard of the Yu family's old house.
At this time, the situation in the yard was different from what Zhao Yu had imagined. However, he saw a team of police officers digging something in the yard. They had already dug three or four large holes in the yard...
"Oh..." Captain Li quickly introduced, "This is a decision made by our criminal police team before you came to see if there is anything buried in the yard..."
Um…
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, but he was inevitably a little unhappy in his heart.
Because the ground had already been dug up before he checked the situation in the yard, which might have caused him to miss some clues.
However, there is nothing wrong with the local criminal police team's approach. After all, the special investigation team received the notice one day after the incident.
Prior to this, the case was handled by the local criminal police team, so digging the ground was completely in line with the procedures. Moreover, before digging, the technical team had already conducted a search and evidence collection, so nothing should be missed.
"It's a pity..." Captain Li Yanxia said helplessly when he saw Zhao Yu staring blankly at the yard, "So far, nothing has been dug out! It seems that the suspect did not bury the body here."
"Hmm..." Zhao Yu glanced around the yard and asked Captain Li, "Did you find any trace of anyone living in the house?"
Following Zhao Yu's question, the three people had already turned towards the gloomy and ancient three-story building.
"No, no!" Captain Li replied, "We have searched all the houses, as well as basements and cellars. They are all deserted, and we have not found any trace of human habitation!"
"Oh..." Zhao Yu said thoughtfully, "In other words, the suspect who arranged the bones does not live here at all, he just found a house here..."
"If you want to live...you can only live in the same room as the bones, right? But..." Captain Li said with a complicated expression, "You will know after seeing the scene. In that room, except for the table where the bones are placed, there is no bed. .
"If you want to live there, I'm afraid you'll have to build a bed on the floor!"
After saying that, Li Yanxia was so frightened by his words that he shuddered. Sleeping with bones is terrifying no matter how you hear it.
While talking, the three people had entered the first floor hall of the ancient house. Because the door and windows were covered with plants, the light in the hall was very dim.
In the hall, several members of the technical team were still searching carefully for something. When they saw Zhao Yu and the others arriving, someone immediately handed them shoe covers and gloves.
After changing, Zhao Yu followed Captain Li and went straight up the stairs to the second floor without making any further observations.
In the meantime, Captain Li recounted the situation that night to them based on the actual situation.
Not long after, Zhao Yu finally saw the terrifying room, which was facing the stairway on the second floor. No wonder the thief directly chose this room when he came up that night.
The door still looked like it had been knocked open by a thief.
Although he felt a little chilly in his heart, as a well-informed detective Zhao Yu, he naturally had no fear and immediately stepped in.
However, perhaps due to psychological effects, as soon as Zhao Yu entered, he instinctively felt a hint of sinister wind blowing across his cheeks, and all the hairs on his back stood up involuntarily.
There are three windows in the house, but they are all covered with wooden boards, making it airtight, making the house dark and gloomy, making it difficult to see clearly.
"I'll come..." At this time, Captain Li walked around the altar in the room, came to the depths of the room, reached out and opened a small door.
As the sunlight entered, the room became clear.
oh…
After seeing the furnishings in the room, even though Zhao Yu was mentally prepared, he was still deeply surprised and felt goosebumps all over his body.
This is a small rectangular room with a wooden platform placed in the middle of the room. It looks like a coffin board or an altar.
There was a thick and huge plastic sheet spread on the altar. According to pictures from the scene, the pile of bones was placed on the plastic sheet.
Looking next to the altar, there are either scary faces, masks, or messy symbols posted on them, making it look like a primitive tribe’s sacrificial place.
There were incense ashes, burned paper, and other miscellaneous things scattered on the ground.
There are many ropes hanging above the house. Some ropes are tied with hooks, and some are tied with cow horns, sheep horns, and the hair of some suspected animals...
In addition, there are many candlesticks and lamp stands nailed to the walls of the house, all of which have thick and long red candles...
"The technical team has taken some samples for testing..." Captain Li introduced, "These are the rest, here..." He pointed to the altar in the center, "That white skeleton is placed here!
"If it hadn't been for the coroner's words, we wouldn't have been able to tell that it was not a human skeleton!"
"Captain Li," Zhao Yu asked with a frown, "Did the technical team really not find fingerprints from here?"
"Yes!" Li Yanxia replied affirmatively, "Only the footprints were found, but not a single fingerprint. The forensic experts from the special investigation team also searched for it, but found nothing."
"Then let's talk about the footprints!" Although Zhao Yu had read the information about the footprints before, he still wanted to hear Captain Li's report.
"Those are the shoe prints of sports shoes, both feet are there..." Captain Li recalled, "Based on the shoe prints, it is inferred that the suspect is between 1.65 meters and 1.70 meters tall. Looking at the style, he is very likely to be male. Big, but the possibility of women cannot be ruled out.”
"There are shoe prints, but no fingerprints..." Miao Ying was slightly startled and murmured, "This is a bit strange..."
"Huh..."
Zhao Yu exhaled heavily, and then began to smell the smell of the room carefully with his nose. In addition to the stale damp smell in the house, the most obvious smell is the special smell after burning candles.
Zhao Yu sniffed it carefully, then opened the small door and walked out of the house.
Outside the house is a long balcony that runs through the second floor of the small western-style building.
Zhao Yu walked up to the balcony and after observing the surrounding situation, he suddenly made an unexpected move. He came to the end of the balcony, turned over the railing, and then climbed up the courtyard wall of the Yu family's old house! !
