Chapter 627 The Burned Man

The location of the murder was beside a cement canal to the north of the furniture base.

The ditch has dried up, and the bottom of the ditch is covered with dried silt, fallen leaves, and weeds.

An eighty-percent-new Humvee was parked by the ditch. To the left of the Humvee was a small hillside with many trees. On the other side of the Humvee was a large cornfield, with green corn seedlings extending continuously to the south.

After jumping over a channel more than one meter wide and climbing up a grassy slope, Wang Dengming reached the top of the mountain ridge.

He saw Sith, Helene and others busy.

Algerin was also there, still carrying the small black box, and he followed Sith.

"what's the situation?"

The gloved Sith handed Wang Dengming a photo.

"Phoebe Di?"

"Yes, the photo was retaken and developed using the plate of the photo in his suitcase."

The photo is blurry, but it is certain that it is a copy of the photo in Phoebe's box.

"Where did you find it?"

The body was lying under a hemlock tree, covered with a white cloth.

Wang Dengming stepped forward, lifted the white cloth, and immediately covered his nose.

The corpse was severely decomposed, and the most terrifying thing was that the upper body of the corpse, including the chest, neck, and head, was burned to a disfigured state, and the face of the deceased was completely unrecognizable.

Helene said: "We found a wallet in the right pocket of the deceased's jeans, which contained a bank card, a credit card, and the photo in your hand."

"Is this person Phoebe Di?"

Sith: "It's very possible, but I can't completely confirm it. The face was burned and deformed."

Algerin quietly came closer and said: "I just found signs of being burned on the driver's door of the Hummer, so Captain Sith and I both believe that this is not the scene of the first crime. Someone will burn it."

The body was dragged here from the side of the car.”

Helene also said: "Yes, Sheriff, there are no burn marks caused by the fire here, not even a burned leaf."

Wang Dengming turned around and looked at the Hummer.

"The distance between the Humvee and the body is about a little more than a hundred meters. Isn't one hundred meters a little short? If someone wants to hide the body, he should throw the body farther away."

Sis: "This is also strange. The body was only moved about a hundred meters. It doesn't look like it was dumped. Moreover, the Humvee did not drive away."

"Has the person who called the police been found?"

"It couldn't have been that fast. The person who called the police called the police anonymously. The source of the alarm call is being investigated. It should be a public phone or something. It's difficult."

"The person who called the police was very strange. What did he say at that time?"

"He said he saw an abandoned Humvee and later found a body. He claimed that he was a painter and discovered it accidentally when he went out to sketch."

Wang Dengming pinched his chin and said with a wry smile: "There's still a fucking painter, we have to find him."

"Perhaps the person who called the police did not want to deal with the police and avoided it. After calling the police, he disappeared. We have encountered this before, quite a few."

"In this place, the first person to call the police is the farmer here. The farmer should know better how long the Hummer has been here."

Wang Dengming went down the hillside and checked in the Hummer.

"Did you find anything?"

Sis: "I have a lot of material, so I called you here. The title and registration are all there. You can see for yourself."

There are two types of car documents in the United States, one is called Title and the other is called Registration.

Title indicates the owner of the car, and Registration is the vehicle's registration form. The user of the vehicle must pay a certain fee to the Vehicle Administration Bureau every year, and then the Vehicle Administration Bureau will send a new Registration, which states the vehicle information and the owner's information.

Information. There is a car sale form on the back of the Registration. As long as the car owner signs the car sale form, anyone who holds this Registration and drives the vehicle can apply to the DMV to transfer the vehicle to his or her name. The DMV does not care about holding the Registration.

How the person obtained the car (bought the car, gave the car as a gift, or even stole the car), as long as the signatures match, the transfer can be done without the original owner being present.

Both documents for the Hummer stated that the vehicle was owned by Phoebe.

The car belonged to Phoebe, and a photo of Phoebe and Eden was found in the deceased's pocket. So, was the person who died on the hillside Phoebe?

"Is it Phoebe?"

Wang Dengming asked again.

Helene: "I can't completely conclude, maybe."

"Probably, not nearly enough, Detective Algerin, what do you think?"

"It's hard to say, I'm here to learn. What do you think, Sheriff?"

This trick happened again, Wang Dengming wanted to scold his mother.

After Inspector Satsuma arrived at the scene, he just watched and said: "In my opinion, the victim should be Fei Bidi himself. I have two reasons. First, the photo in his wallet, and secondly.

His suitcase fell into Maggie's hands."

Sith: "King, you also said that Phoebe Di might have been killed. Unfortunately, you guessed it right. He is dead. He has been dead for many days."

Wang Dengming said to himself: "Did Bert Manlen do it?"

Detective: "Currently we have no evidence that he did it."

Sis: "It seems that only people at the level of detectives can figure out how this series of related cases happened."

Detective: "You have to add a precondition, if the person who was burned to death was Phoebe Di."

Helene: "Inspector, you need to add more assumptions. The deceased may not have been burned to death."

After the scene investigation, Wang Dengming asked Sis and Heleni to take the body and leave first, while he and the detective stayed behind.

The driver's door had obvious signs of being burned by the high temperature, and a small area had been burned black. The deceased was set on fire and burned to death outside the car, and then dragged to the hillside. There should be no dispute about this.

Later, Wang Dengming said to the detective: "Check the trunk again."

The two men fiddled with the trunk again, but found nothing. Then they continued to check in the car. Finally, they found three white pills in the gap between the carpet and the car.

There were only pills, but no bottle.

The first thing Wang Dengming did when he returned to the county was to send the white drug he found to the county police station for testing. The results came out within two hours. It was a nerve analgesic, similar to gabapentin.

Will Phoebe take such medicine?

Wang Dengming contacted Fabidi's comrade-in-arms Jack Paul, who reported back that Fabidi was hit by a bullet in the Afghan battlefield and almost hit her spine. Although she was spared from paralysis, the bullet hurt her back.

His left back and left hand often suffer from nerve pain, so Fabidi often takes analgesics.

With this article in mind, the probability that the deceased is Fei Bidi becomes even greater.

The most critical piece of evidence as to whether the deceased was Fei Bi Di was the bank card and credit card found in the wallet. The detective's investigation from the bank revealed that the bank cards and credit cards belonged to Fei Bi Di.
