On the Jingjiang River, sail against the current.
The sun is shining and the scenery is beautiful.
Zhao Yu and others were traveling on a cruise ship specially rented for them by the police station.
At this moment, Ran Tao and others were having a barbecue on the deck, most of which were grilled fish produced in Jingjiang.
Forensic doctor Guo Fengzhan was wearing a sun hat and sitting on the side of the deck, fishing leisurely with a premonition.
On the entire deck, only Zhao Yu stood tall on the bow of the ship, checking the situation on both sides of the strait.
"Boss!" Cui Lizhu came closer with a skewer of grilled fish, "I thought you had some special trick! It turns out you are enjoying the river view!"
"Oh, that's wrong!" Zhao Yu said seriously as he took the grilled fish, "I'm not here for fun!
"Su Ruohua was washed downstream by the river, so I naturally have to find her drifting route!" Zhao Yu removed the fish bones and said seriously, "Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you better understand the case and get inspiration!"
A warm breeze blew across the river, making people feel more comfortable.
"Xiao Cui," Zhao Yu pointed to the bow of the ship and said, "Would you like to experience the feeling of the Titanic? Come? Let me give you a hug?"
"Save it!" Cui Lizhu narrowed her eyes in contempt, "Sister Miao is not here, and you are wandering again. Why don't you call your little Nana to come over for a hug?"
"Huh? Are you jealous?" Zhao Yu pointed at Simone in the distance, "I recently discovered that little Nana is not an ordinary greedy person. Why didn't I notice it before?"
The two turned to look, but saw Simona holding no less than 10 skewers of grilled fish, but she was still grabbing the oysters that Ran Tao had just grilled...
"..." Cui Lizhu was speechless for a few seconds, wiped her sweat and said, "I'm so envious that she doesn't gain weight no matter how much she eats! I guess there must be something wrong with her digestive system, right?"
"Spit, spit..." Although Zhao Yu picked out the fish bones, he was still pricked by the fish bones when he took a bite, so he sighed, "You have to spit out the fish bones when eating fish. It's really troublesome!"
"Boss," Cui Lizhu said, pointing to the beautiful river, "Forensic doctors estimate that the frozen Su Ruohua was beautiful in the river for at least several hours. We are now going upstream...
"The river is flowing, so why do I feel like I am trying to find a sword by carving a boat?"
"Damn!" Zhao Yu complained, "I told you, I'm here for inspiration! Do you think we can solve the case just by sitting on a boat?"
“We have estimated several possibilities before,” Cui Lizhu said. “One is that the murderer threw the body from the boat into the river; the other is that it was thrown from the shore!
"We have inspected so many ships, can we rule out the former?"
"It cannot be completely ruled out!" Zhao Yu sighed, "Jingjiang is so big, how is it possible to check all the ships
"Besides, there are only a few places with surveillance. What if the murderer has stopped the boat before being caught by surveillance?"
"Hmm..." Cui Lizhu said, "But it seems more likely to dump the body from the shore!
"Look..." She pointed at a residential area somewhere along the river, "There are residential areas everywhere on both sides of the Jingjiang River. It's impossible to investigate them all!"
"What I'm thinking about now is not where the murderer threw the body into the river," Zhao Yu said, turning to look at the river scenery on both sides of the bank, "but, why did the murderer throw the body into the river?"
"Well..." Cui Lizhu thought for a moment along Zhao Yu's train of thought and guessed, "Because the murderer is terminally ill and is about to die. He can no longer take care of the frozen Su Ruohua..."
"Then..." Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't he dig a hole and bury the body?"
"This..." Cui Lizhu didn't know how to continue.
"Think about it, 34 years!" Zhao Yu said, "The murderer kept Su Ruohua in ice for 34 years. This person must be obsessed with Su Ruohua to the extreme, right
"How could he be willing to throw her into the river
"Even if... just putting the frozen great Su Ruohua anywhere, it would be better than throwing it into the river, right?"
"We... um... we seem to have discussed it countless times before, right?" Cui Lizhu thought of something and said, "In addition to the murderer being terminally ill, there is also the possibility of demolition of the cold storage or the possibility of an accident
"For example, the place where he froze Su Ruohua needs to be demolished. In order to prevent Su Ruohua from being exposed... So, just..."
At this point, Cui Lizhu couldn't talk any more.
"How about it?" Zhao Yu said, "Isn't it unreasonable? Since you don't want Su Ruohua to be exposed, why did you throw it into the river
"Does he think that the frozen Su Ruohua will sink to the bottom of the river?"
"No..." Cui Lizhu shook her head and said, "The murderer knows about hydroxyethyl substances and has such profound knowledge about freezing. There is no way he doesn't have this bit of common sense...
"If this is the case, then the only possibility left is accident?"
"Hey..." Zhao Yu took a few more bites of the grilled fish and said, "The Xiaoyao Mountain incident made us confused at first, but in the end it was proved that Sun Guodong had a purpose!"
"Yes," Cui Lizhu said, "Sun Guodong himself confessed that when they were planting Ganoderma lucidum together, they used to take shelter from the rain in that cave, which has a certain commemorative significance for them!
"Also, he put the victim into the cave just to divert the attention of the police and make us ignore that the prison is near the bottom of the mountain...
"But..." Cui Lizhu pointed to the river, "Why did the murderer of the frozen female corpse case throw Su Ruohua into the river
"Isn't there... some commemorative significance? Or... is it trying to divert our attention?"
"Well..." Zhao Yu nodded slightly and fell into deep thought.
It seems that there are still many possibilities for the murderer's purpose of dumping the body!
Therefore, in order to solve the case, he could only start from many aspects.
For example, since it is suspected that the dumping of corpses is related to the demolition of cold storage, it is necessary to investigate whether there have been any recent demolitions on both sides of the Jingjiang River
In addition, since we suspect that it may have commemorative significance, we have to investigate Su Ruohua's former friends to see what is the connection between Su Ruohua and Jingjiang
Secondly, if the murderer really wanted to divert attention, then... what exactly was he trying to cover up
When he thought of this aspect, Zhao Yu no longer had the intention to eat any grilled fish. He just stood at the bow of the boat with half a skewer of grilled fish and fell into his own thoughts...
Cui Lizhu knew that she couldn't ask any constructive questions, so she had no choice but to shut up and stand there admiring the view of the river on both sides of the river...
The sky is clear and the blue waves are rippling.
The warm breeze is refreshing.
The willows standing upside down on the shore and the boats lying across the shore remind people of the famous saying of thousands of sails passing by the side of the sunken boat and thousands of trees in front of the diseased trees. Although there is no sunken boat, there are no diseased trees.
"Why?"
At this moment, Zhao Yu suddenly let out an exclamation, as if he had thought of something.
"Boss?" Cui Lizhu suddenly widened her eyes and asked, "What's wrong? What did you think of?"
"Xiao Cui," Zhao Yu turned his head and looked towards the stern of the ship, "I remember, is there a thousand-year-old temple where the frozen female body was found?"
