Hunter of the Forbidden Region

Chapter 182: Taste tracking

Views:

Under the leadership of Cao Yusheng, the hunter team began to enter the first crime scene.

Sanan and the entourage of the two embassies stood on the village road and did not follow.

This is actually abnormal, but here, it is easy to understand.

Although the caste system is no longer supported by local laws, the customs and habits of thousands of years are still integrated into the words and deeds of the local people.

Here is a village of "untouchables", and Sanan has a noble caste of Kshatriya, so being able to bring everyone into the village is considered the limit.

It was impossible to let him into the house.

But it would be a good thing for Lin Shuo and Cao Yusheng if he didn't follow in, so as not to get in the way.

Especially Lin Shuo, although Sanan, an Indian, behaves decently, but the smell of perfume on his body is really unbearable.

At this moment, the first room everyone entered had a cordon at the door.

But as soon as he entered, Lin Shuo knew that the scene had been destroyed long ago.

The smell of this room is messy. There are no fewer than twenty people who have stayed here recently.

I only heard Cao Yusheng say: "The location of this village happens to be on the mountain climbing route. People in the same village were killed at the same time, and the discoverer must be a traveler. All these people swarmed up to watch the excitement, and there must be no way to talk about on-site protection. I think It is very difficult to find useful clues and evidence from such scenes.

However, just because ordinary people can’t do anything about it doesn’t mean we can’t do anything about it.

Chief, please. "

While saying these words, Cao Yusheng looked at Lin Shuo.

Lin Shuo nodded, closed his eyes, and twitched his nose.

The house, compared to the wild, is a closed environment.

The smell here dissipates much slower than in the wild.

Especially for this kind of wooden house, the income of the residents is not high, and it is the dry season now, and the temperature at night can be close to zero.

There are few windows in the first place, and they are not opened much to keep warm, which allows the odor factor to accumulate here.

However, this is a site that has been destroyed, and many things have come in.

There are the head of the household who was victimized, the tourists who found the body and watched the excitement, the local police, and the body collector, as well as what Lin Shuo is really concerned about: the murderer.

In theory, there should be at least these five groups of people or things.

And each group of people or things has a specific "taste".

It's just that this kind of screening is relatively difficult.

Lin Shuo needs to turn off some unnecessary senses, such as eyesight, to focus more on the sense of smell.

So he closed his eyes and fully felt the smell in his nasal cavity.

At the same time, his feet slowly moved.

The first group: the victims.

Wounds on the neck, the main odor characteristic, bloody.

One on the bed and one on the floor, both around 30 years old, should be a couple.

The second group of people: tourists.

After walking down the ten-kilometer mountain road, I was sweating and smelled of sweat.

There is also the smell of chemical fiber from newly bought equipment, the smell of perfume from female tourists, and the smell of vomit after seeing the dead body.

A total of nine tourists, seven men and two women, threw up three.

The third group of people: the police.

Almost like tourists, they all smell of sweat. But the local eating habits filled their sweat with the smell of chili and curry.

two cops.

The fourth group of people: corpse collectors.

The dead are "untouchables", so their collectors are also "untouchables".

Crowd characteristics: low-income heavy manual laborers.

Odor characteristics: Extremely vigorous metabolism, coupled with poor hygiene habits, lead to heavy body odor.

Moreover, the corpse was not carried out, it was carried out, and the body collector smelled of blood.

Two corpse collectors.

In addition to these smells, there are also these people in the house. Of course, Lin Shuo is familiar with their taste.

Get rid of all the above smell information.

In this way, the murderer's smell is locked within a small range.

However, the murderer moved in and out of the house very quickly, so there was very little odor factor remaining in the house.

So Lin Shuo had to walk around the house slowly, searching for these smell factors.

So far, it is not entirely certain who the murderer is.

From the briefing on the case of the International Society for Biological Research, Lin Shuo thought that this might be the work of the white-headed flying corpse, because the victim's blood was almost absorbed.

The preliminary judgment of the International Society for Biological Research, of course, is actually Miao Guangqi's judgment, which is consistent with Lin Shuo's, thinking that it is very likely to be the white-headed flying corpse.

That's why Lin Shuo invited Cao Yusheng.

In fact, for Lin Shuo, regardless of whether it was a white-headed flying corpse or not, at least this was a good opportunity to get in touch with Cao Yusheng, and he really got his wish.

But after accepting the deal and coming to the scene, whether it is Cao Yusheng or Lin Shuo, they are still very cautious about who the murderer is.

If the thing here is not a white-headed flying corpse, it is a wrong step.

So, be sure first.

This is also the reason why Cao Yusheng wanted a more detailed autopsy report.

At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Shuo walking slowly in the room with his eyes closed, knowing what he was doing, they didn't dare to vent their anger.

Especially Wei Xingshan, he first held his breath, and then he couldn't hold it any longer, so he exhaled, held the breath with his hands, and smelled it with his nose.

Smell nothing.

And at this moment, Lin Shuo opened his eyes.

"How is it?" Cao Yusheng asked quickly.

"I'm not sure if it's the white-headed flying corpse." Lin Shuo said slowly, "Because I haven't smelled this thing before, so I can't compare it. But what is certain is that this thing is not human."

"It's fine if it's not a person." Cao Yusheng nodded, "If it's a person, it's out of our control."

"Yes." Lin Shuo responded, and then said, "However, this matter is a bit strange."

"What's wrong?"

"As far as I know, the white-headed flying corpse of the Cao family, in addition to being human-like, also has wings on its back and can move freely in the air, right?" Lin Shuo asked.

"That's right." Cao Yusheng replied, "The White-headed Flying Corpse is called the Flying Corpse because it can fly. Not only is it extremely fast in the air, but it is also very flexible, which is beyond the reach of ordinary birds."

"What about the body shape?" Lin Shuo asked again.

"It's almost like a human being."

While the two were asking and answering, Lin Shuo walked to the door of the wooden house.

"This thing came in through the gate, and it also went out through the gate." Lin Shuo said, "In the village just now, the smell of the embassy military attache's perfume was too pungent, and my sense of smell was disturbed, so I couldn't use it. But Now I can smell it. In fact, the village road in this village smells of this thing everywhere.

You see, this village is built on the hillside. There is a height difference of more than 30 meters between this house and the wooden house next to it. It must be easier to fly up than run across this kind of terrain.

But it doesn't fly, because once it flies, the smell dissipates very quickly in the air. It's been more than half a month, and I definitely can't smell it now.

It ran over, and I could smell its scent hanging on the grass and stones.

Master Cao, it moves with its feet, not its wings. "

"That's weird." Cao Yusheng was also slightly taken aback, "It doesn't make sense."

"Yes." Lin Shuo nodded, "If it's a white-headed flying corpse, it should fly up instead of running over."

"Lin Shuo, can you track this smell?" Anne asked at this time.

"Yes." Lin Shuo said.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go into the mountain." Wei Xingshan said.

"I don't recommend going into the mountains now." Cao Yusheng shook his head, "One reason is that the climate in the mountains here has been changing for half a month, and it must have rained inside, so the smell will stop when you get inside.

The second is that we don't know what it is, and we don't have a thing with us, so it's not appropriate to enter the mountain rashly. "

"Then what should we do?" Wei Xingshan asked.

"Wait for the autopsy report." Cao Yusheng said, and then looked at Lin Shuo, "Boss, do you think this is okay?"

In terms of seniority, Cao Yusheng was a generation older than Lin Shuo, but he was in the mountains at the moment, and once they entered the mountains, the Lin family would be the leaders.

Therefore, the head of the Cao family has a lot of respect for Lin Shuo in his words.

But at the same time, as the mastermind of the hunting gate, he had to give out the opinions that should be given.

The title of the master of the Cao family, the master of the hunting gate, is firstly outside the mountains, where the Cao family manages intelligence and determines strategies; secondly, in the mountains, the Cao family is responsible for making plans, which is equivalent to the brains of the hunter team.

Now that the "conspirator" is offering advice, the "leader" must make a decision.

In fact, according to Lin Shuo's temper, if he was alone, he would have caught up with him now. No matter what it was, at least he would have a chance to meet him and get to know him better.

But Cao Yusheng's words are indeed reasonable. To catch up now, for the whole team, the risk is higher than the benefit.

After all, the current team is old and young, and there is no one with them. If something unexpected happens, there are too many uncontrollable factors.

So Lin Shuo nodded: "Okay, let's go back first."
