Chapter 76 Nameless (5) Fishing for people in the underworld

After investigation and conversations with brands that cooperated with several art academies, it was discovered that Zhang Shiwen did engage in "seeking benefits" behavior.

Then, it is impossible for him to conspire with Yu Meng.

After asking several students in the art academy and the security manager Mu Feng, I got a clue:

Zhang Shiwen was driven away by Yu Meng, and he was in a panic when he left. He made a fuss at the entrance of the art academy and said, "Yu Meng, I worked hard to negotiate a [-] million brand cooperation for you. What's wrong with taking a little? You I'm such a great person, let the brand block me, just wait for me."

Zhang Shiwen left bitterly at that time.

Further investigation revealed that it was impossible for Yu Meng to kill Chen Liang.

Chen Liang died a month ago, and during that time, for half a month, Yu Meng was out promoting the art exhibition, so she was unable to commit the crime.

Besides, with her body like this, how could she throw her body away with a rice bag? Talking about the Yuenan rice bag, Zhang Shiwen bought the rice bag.

So - maybe the truth is another version?

Zhang Shiwen was very angry that Yu Meng drove him away. How could he make quick money without his job?

He followed Yu Meng and discovered a secret: Yu Meng actually found a dwarf painter (Chen Liang) to help her draw some paintings that she didn't want to draw.

So Zhang Shiwen went to Chen Liang and gave him benefits. Zhang Shiwen wanted to use Chen Liang as a "chess piece" to blackmail Yu Meng.

Zhang Shiwen took Chen Liang away from the hut, hid it in a secret place, bought a bag of rice, and told Chen Liang not to go out.

Maybe it was during that time that the two had a conflict over money. Zhang Shiwen killed Chen Liang by mistake and dumped his body.

Further investigation revealed that Zhang Shiwen had studied abroad. While he was studying abroad, he had joined an association of sailing enthusiasts.

Sailing enthusiast? sailor? crew?

Members of this association need to be able to tie a variety of knots - weighing knots.

Everything seemed to be right, and Yuan Fugui felt that she was very close to the truth.

Zhang Shiwen must be on the run now. How to find him?

.

At noon the next day, the tour guide led fifty people into a cave.

Tour groups from out of town held cameras in their hands and took pictures of the scenery inside the cave.

"Come, look here. If you want to take pictures, take pictures from above."

The tour guide pointed to the top of the cave. At a height of more than ten meters, there were four or five coffins.

Rather, the coffins were placed in grooves in the cave walls. The cave is surrounded by cliffs. How was the coffin placed on top?

This is the special attraction of this scenic spot - the coffin on the cliff.

This history begins thousands of years ago. There is a tribe called the Naxi tribe. The leader is the Naxi King. They are brave and good at fighting and very conceited. In the end, they were defeated in a war and the kingdom was occupied.

From then on, the Naxi people fled to various places and could not return home.

After the people died, they chose to use a cave burial method - a corpse carrier carried the corpse of the deceased up the cliff, then disassembled the coffin piece by piece, carried it to the cliff to assemble it, and then put the deceased Placed in a coffin on the cliff.

Choosing cave burial is, firstly, to protect the corpse from being eaten by jackals.

Second, the Naxi people must be loyal to the Naxi people until they die and become dead souls, and never forget the hatred of destroying the country.

Putting a sword in the coffin means that he will follow the soul of the Naxi king until his death and fight for the Naxi people. A piece of cloth with horse blood is covered on the body. The head of the coffin faces the northwest, which is the symbol of the Naxi nation. direction.

After carrying the corpse, they recite some scriptures and practices, and then the ceremony is completed.

Corpse carrying is a unique occupation of the Naxi people. They have been practicing since childhood, practicing strength and free-hand rock climbing skills, and have been passed down from generation to generation.

However, with the current full implementation of cremation and the decreasing number of Naxi people, there are only a few such corpse-carrying workers.

"Everyone, you are discerning today." the tour guide said.

Then, a stout, short man came forward.

He was a corpse-carrying worker hired by the park on the mountain with great difficulty. Then, the corpse-carrying worker took the wire rope hanging from the ceiling of the cave and hung it on his body for protection.

He climbed the cliff with his bare hands to perform this amazing stunt.

Today is the first performance of the corpse-carrying workers. Tourists have raised their cameras and mobile phones to take pictures.

It took half an hour for the body-carrying worker to climb to a coffin in a groove more than ten meters high, and waved happily downwards.

Suddenly the corpse-carrying worker sniffed, as if he smelled something, it was very smelly.

He turned his head, glanced at the coffin, and was so frightened that he almost fell down. He grabbed the coffin, fixed his body, and shouted to the bottom: "There is someone here, there is a dead person!"

I saw a foul-smelling male corpse lying next to the grooved coffin.

.

An hour later, police arrived at the scene.

Looking at the photos taken by the corpse carrier on his cell phone, it was indeed true that there was a male corpse next to the coffin.

Why is there a male corpse?

First of all, to remove the body, it is difficult to reach the police on this cliff of more than ten meters.

It's not practical to call for a crane to come. The road up the mountain is too steep and the crane can't come up.

The police gave the body-carrying man some money, but he refused to do it. He was not a member of the Naxi ethnic group. He was just an acrobatic who was invited by the scenic spot. He had no confidence that he could carry the body. ,

In the end, only local methods can be used.

The staff of the scenic spot were asked to find iron frames for decoration and build them up layer by layer. Then a few brave men from the forensic department climbed up and carefully moved the body down.

After forensic examination, the deceased was male, aged approximately 25-30 years old.

The time of death was estimated to be a month ago. The cause of death was suffocation. There were no identification items on the male body, and his body was tied with jute rope.

The police speculated that the murderer tied himself to the deceased with jute rope and climbed up the cliff with his bare hands.

It must have been done with bare hands, because the scenic spot had just warmed up for the "Corpse Carrying Worker" performance more than [-] days ago, and the wire rope was only tied to the top of the cave more than [-] days ago.

Three days later, the deceased was identified.

The deceased's DNA was entered into the police station's system comparison database, and it was found that the deceased's DNA matched that of a "missing person."

Zhang Shiwen, the deceased was Zhang Shiwen.

.

He was also dead, and Yuan Fugui looked at Zhang Shiwen's autopsy report.

The hemp rope that tied Zhang Shiwen used another kind of knot called "Thoreau style", which was also a slip knot, but stronger than a dead knot.

Could it be the same murderer who murdered Zhang Shiwen and Chen Liang?

Or, did the murderer first conspire with Zhang Shiwen to kill Chen Liang, and then the murderer then killed Zhang Shiwen to silence him?

Zhang Shiwen died of suffocation, and no obvious injuries were found on his body. From this, it can be inferred that the murderer was very strong.

What kind of murderer is this, a truck driver? Naxi corpse-carrying workers? He seemed to be proficient in many skills.

However, there is another thing that troubles Yuan Fugui.

Why choose two methods of hiding corpses? Was Chen Liang's body hidden at the bottom of the lake, and Zhang Shiwen's body was carried to the coffin in the cave's recess?

Logically speaking, it must be safer on the top of the cave.

If it weren't for the "Corpse Carrying Performance" created in this scenic spot, such a secretly hidden body would not have been discovered for decades.

Is it?

Yuan Fugui frowned and understood - Zhang Shiwen died before Chen Liang.

This makes sense. The murderer killed Zhang Shiwen first and carried his body to the coffin in the cave.

Then, when he killed Chen Liang and was about to dispose of the body in the same way, he discovered a problem - that is, the scenic spot had started preparing for a "corpse carrying work" performance, and staff had already sealed the cave.

The murderer could no longer dispose of Chen Liang's body in the same way, so the murderer had no choice but to sink Chen Liang's body to the bottom of the lake.

If so, the murderer should be identified quickly in this case.

Because, since the murderer discovered that the cave was unsafe, he would definitely think of ways to move Zhang Shiwen's body. Unfortunately, the scenic spot was busy day and night during this period, and the murderer had not yet found the best time to move.

So, no matter whether the murderer thought about moving Zhang Shiwen's body or not.

He will definitely go back and forth to this mountain many times this month. The murderer must have come by car. As long as he checks the surveillance at the foot of the mountain and the winding mountain road during this period, he can find the murderer from the car that goes back and forth many times.
