Downstream of Xitian Reservoir, many people were standing on a high platform looking down.

Several policemen and the joint defense team set up a cordon and were maintaining order at the scene.

Director Feng led Ji Ji and his team to the murder scene.

Song An saw a headless female body that had just been salvaged and placed on the platform next to it.

""Where are the technicians in your institute?" Chang Baole asked.

Director Feng sighed,"There are no technicians at all. There are only a few of them, managing 200,000 people.".

Ji Jie looked at Song An,"Can you do it?"

"Let me take a look!"

Song An took the rubber gloves from Tian Rui, undressed the dead body, and checked the wounds and corpse spots of the dead body.

After a few minutes, Song An took off his gloves, stood up, and said to Ji Jie:

"Team Ji, the deceased was about 30 years old, female, the fatal injury was a sharp weapon directly stabbed in the heart, and then the murderer cut off the head. The murderer finally threw the body into the reservoir. According to the analysis of rigor mortis and livor mortis, the time of death was initially determined to be around 11 o'clock last night. However......."

Ji Jie and others looked at Song An,"But what?"

"But what's strange is that there are a circle of strangulation marks on both sides of the deceased's navel, and the strangulation marks are very deep. If they were left by a belt or clothes, they shouldn't be so deep."

After Song An finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at the reservoir again, and suddenly realized:

"I understand! The deceased was strangled with a stone and then sank to the bottom of the water! Therefore, there was a circle of deep strangulation marks left on her navel, but for some reason, the stone fell off again!"

Wang Guijin looked at Song An,"You mean, the murder scene should be upstream of the reservoir! The downstream is definitely not the first crime scene."

Song An nodded,"This should be certain! Moreover, the corpse spots of the deceased have obviously shifted, which can also prove that this place is definitely not the first crime scene."

"However, since the murderer strangled the deceased with a stone, the purpose should be to make the deceased sink to the bottom of the water to prevent us from finding him, but why did the stone fall off?"Ji Jie asked puzzledly.

Bai Ling looked at Ji Jie,"Could it be that he was not tied up properly and was washed away by the current?"

Several people did not answer Bai Ling's question, because what she said might be

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think our top priority is to find out the identity of the deceased and determine the source of the body, otherwise there is no point in talking about anything, what do you think?"

Chief Feng looked at everyone anxiously.

Song An shook his head,"The deceased's head was cut off. The murderer's purpose was to prevent us from discovering her identity. I'm afraid this case is more bizarre than we thought."

The people from the joint defense team lifted the stretcher, covered the female corpse with a white cloth, and carried her to the Xitian Town Police Station.

"Everyone, please follow me back to the station. We will first investigate the source of the corpse, and we will discuss the rest after the identity of the deceased is confirmed, okay?"Director Feng said in a negotiating tone.

Ji Jie and others nodded and got on the police car.

Before Song An got on the car, he looked up along the reservoir and found a small white building in front of him with four big characters"Xitian Reservoir" written on it.

Song An didn't say anything. Just as he was about to get on the car, Tian Rui stopped him, took out a tissue, squatted down and helped him wipe the mud off his feet.

Song An only then noticed that the soles of his shoes were covered with a lot of mud at some point.

"It doesn't seem to rain today, why is it so wet next to the reservoir?"Song An said to himself.

A few minutes later, the Xitian Town Radio Station began broadcasting.

"Attention, citizens! Just now, the police fished out a female corpse from the reservoir, aged between 30 and 35! If anyone has a missing person at home, please report to Director Feng immediately! I would like to remind the general public that it is our duty to assist the police in handling cases. Please check the family members immediately. If there is a missing person, please......."

Ji Jie and others were busy from noon to four in the evening.

A lot of people came. When the people of Xitian heard that they were looking for the deceased, they spread the word and called their friends. People from several nearby towns came to watch the fun.

Director Feng and his team received hundreds of reports, but none of them matched the criteria!

There was even a white-haired old man who reported his long-dead partner. The police officer who was responsible for taking the statement was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

""Chief, almost all the missing persons in Xitian Town have been reported. If there is no one who fits the description, what should we do?" a local police officer asked.

"Is there any need to ask this? If Xitian Town doesn't work, then expand to the countryside! Even to the nearby towns, we must find out the true identity of this person, even if we have to dig deep!"

Director Feng and his colleagues were at a loss, but Song An, Tian Rui and Hao Jia who were visiting the town had a big harvest.

Song An came to a tofu shop and asked a middle-aged woman who was selling tofu,"Madam boss, is there anyone among your regular customers who didn't come to buy tofu today?"

· ········Request flowers····· ·········

The lady boss immediately said,"Liu Caijie! Liu Caijie comes to my house every day to buy tofu. I don't know why she didn't come today."

Song An, Tian Rui and Hao Jia looked at each other, and the three of them immediately ran to Qiao Mancang's house in the north of the town.

When they opened the door, Qiao Mancang was cooking next to the stove in the corridor.

Seeing Song An and others, Qiao Mancang shook the spoon in his hand heavily!

""Qiao Mancang, where is your wife?" Tian Rui asked coldly.

Following Song An's instructions, Hao Jia opened the doors of several rooms while Qiao Mancang was not paying attention and looked for Liu Caijie everywhere.

Qiao Mancang turned the dishes with a spoon without even looking at Tian Rui,"I didn't see her either. She must have gone back to her parents' home!"

"How do you know she will definitely go back to her parents' home?" Song An asked immediately

. 0 0

""Oh! Every time I beat her, she would go back to her parents' home! Women are like this, they run away after beating and come back after a few days."

Qiao Mancang looked like he didn't care at all, frying the chicken nuggets and talking nonchalantly.

Song An saw that while he was talking, he looked nonchalant, but he opened the bottle of aged vinegar and poured a spoonful of white vinegar into the chicken nuggets.

""You put so much vinegar when you stir-fry the chicken?" Song An suddenly asked loudly.

Qiao Mancang seemed to be startled. After a while, he said,"Yes, I have been eating vinegar since I was a child, especially old vinegar. Isn't this illegal?"

Song An looked to the side of the corridor and found two yellow rubber shoes with some mud spots on them.

Looking at the shoes on Qiao Mancang's feet, they were two round-toed flat cloth shoes, and the shoes were very clean.

""Qiao Mancang, where were you at 11 o'clock last night?" Song An asked.

Qiao Mancang coughed heavily,"After you left, my wife and I had another fight, and then I went back to my room to sleep!"

"Didn't leave home all night?" Song An asked again

"Officer, how many times are you going to ask? If you say you didn't go out, then you didn't go out. What's the point of me lying to you!" Qiao Mancang said impatiently.

At this time, Hao Jia walked out of the last side room and shook his head at Song An.

"Qiao Mancang, we found a headless female corpse in the reservoir. Since your wife is not at home, please come with me to the morgue to identify the body."
