When lunch was approaching, in addition to several detectives from the crime team who rushed to the scene of the Golden Buddha Temple, Zhang Jingfeng also called two portrait experts from the missing persons department, and Hu Bin and others from the forensics department also came with tools. Collect evidence.
It turned out that through the missed surveillance video of the Finance Department, Zhao Yu and others saw a surprising scene on it.
A week ago, at 10 o'clock in the evening on the day when the scenic spot surveillance hard drive was transferred, the camera captured a set of images.
On the screen, you can see four or five figures appearing more than 30 meters away from the Finance Department! Those people appear in the camera for a long time, and they are somewhere carefully observing something.
During this time, they were still using flashlights, and in order to see certain things clearly, some of them even squatted on the ground, appearing very serious and careful.
As a result, when Zhao Yu and others looked in the direction in the video, they saw that it was a corner of the Golden Buddha Temple scenic area, and under the corner, there were many stone tablets scattered around!
strangeness!
The people who appear in the camera are obviously the ones who drained the lotus pond. However, in the camera, why do we see them making the idea of building a stone tablet again
“These stone tablets were all moved here when Buddhist temples and pagodas were being built!” The director of the scenic spot also explained with wonder, “At that time, experts screened and put all the valuable ones in the Forest of Steles area for tourists to visit. ! And what’s left here are basically stone carvings from the Republic of China or the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, and many of them are damaged and of low value!”
"What's engraved on it?" Liang Huan asked.
"Most of them are Buddhist scriptures, right? Oh..." the director of the scenic spot guessed, "could it be that... those guys erased the surveillance cameras just to steal the stone tablets!? Oops! That's broken. There are still things left from the Tang Dynasty in the Forest of Steles. Where is the ancient monument! This is..."
"No, absolutely not!" Accountant Wang next to him quickly consoled him, "Didn't we conduct a thorough investigation several times after the surveillance incident? No, the forest of steles has not been touched, but here..." Accountant Wang pointed to the scattered stone tablets in front of him. He said, "I haven't checked this place carefully. I think these stone tablets are not valuable, right?"
Stone tablet!
Zhao Yu frowned, feeling more and more difficult to guess. He looked around and found that this place was still about 20 meters away from the ancient lotus pond.
The thieves ventured into the scenic spot and drained the lotus pond while carefully examining the stone tablets. What were they obviously looking for
So... what exactly are they looking for
With doubts, Zhao Yu watched the surveillance video again. Because it was late at night, the camera was located far away, and there was a window in the middle, so the final video captured was very blurry. Apart from being able to barely make out the outlines and movements of those people's bodies, I couldn't see their faces at all.
However, after Zhao Yu looked at it several times, he still discovered a special place. That is, among the group of thieves, there is one person who moves obviously slower than others!
The man bowed his head and stooped when walking, looking very strenuous. It seemed that he must be quite old!
In addition, no matter where this person goes, there is always a tall person following him closely, as if... he seems to be monitoring this person!
Could it be...are you afraid that this person will escape
Suddenly, Zhao Yu felt a wave of excitement in his heart. Could this old man... be one of the missing old experts?
God!
If so, then the thieves next to them are undoubtedly the tomb robbers in the ancient tomb murder case!
So... will it
It was with this exciting hope that Zhao Yu quickly reported the situation to Miao Ying. Miao Ying naturally took it very seriously and immediately sent experts from various departments of the police station to begin an in-depth investigation.
It was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that the investigations of various departments finally came to fruition.
First, and most importantly, two experts from the Missing Section used the most advanced technology to compare and found that the old man in the video was 93% consistent with Professor Tian Dongmin from the Cultural Relics Bureau.
According to their comparison standards, it is now certain that the old man is the missing Tian Dongmin!
This discovery is nothing short of earth-shattering!
First of all, it can be proved that Professor Tian Dongmin was still alive a week ago! Secondly, the thieves next to him are most likely the tomb robbers in the ancient tomb case! And Dong Peizhuo, the victim of the ancient tomb case, was most likely killed by them!
Judging from the video, Professor Tian Dongmin always looked like he was being restrained. It can be deduced from this that the three old experts from the Cultural Relics Bureau should have all been controlled by the tomb thieves!
Therefore, there is no doubt that the initiator of the ancient tomb murder case is the group of tomb robbers. As long as they can be caught, the case can be solved!
However, now that Professor Tian's identity has been proven, the case has become increasingly confusing!
People couldn't understand why the tomb robbers came to the Golden Buddha Temple after so many days after they had stolen the tomb of the prefect.
If they had simply drained the lotus pond, Zhao Yu might have thought they were looking for the Golden Buddha.
But why are they interested in those stone tablets that no one cares about
It can be seen from the video that they were looking for something seriously at the stone monument. If the Golden Buddha is hidden under the lotus pond, why are they tinkering with the stone tablet
Moreover... those stone tablets are not historical monuments at all. What can they find on the stone tablets
…
After the comparison, the two portrait experts told Zhao Yu that the reason why they were able to confirm the identity of Professor Tian Dongmin was because they had a comparison source in their hands and compared it with Professor Tian's image data.
However, it is impossible to restore the appearance of other tomb robbers through videos! Unless they can have other images of the tomb robbers, or detailed information on the target suspects.
At the same time, Hu Bin and others also completed the search of the stele area. Although a few fresh fingerprints were captured, the possibility that the fingerprints belonged to tomb robbers was very small, because the tomb robbers had touched the stele a week ago, and during this period, they had After heavy rain, even if there are fingerprints, they will not be so fresh.
Furthermore, the group of tomb robbers were so professional that it was unlikely that they would leave fingerprints.
Although Hu Bin and others found no valid evidence, Zhao Yu did not let them close the team. Because at this moment, half of the water in the lotus pond has been pumped out, and many shallow places have been exposed. Zhao Yu needs them to continue looking for evidence.
Zhao Yu also kept an eye on it. Before pumping water, he had asked the staff to write down the scale on the meter. In this way, they don't have to drain all the water in the pool. They only need to stop pumping when the power usage is close to the day of the incident.
After turning off the water pump, I saw that almost half of the water in the lotus pond had disappeared. One can clearly see that the lotus pond is shallower at the edges and deeper in the center.
What's even more peculiar is that after the water volume decreases, the "8"-shaped lotus pond reveals a symmetrical fan-shaped area at the top of each arc.
At first glance, Zhao Yu clearly understood what these tomb robbers were looking for!
But I saw that the bottom of the stone slabs in those fan-shaped areas were all densely written with Buddhist scriptures! ! !
