Things that solve crimes

"You have to look for this to find out." Xu Xia said. Seeing He Nian's serious face before, he thought something had happened.

Qin Henian nodded and repeated Jiang Buyan's words, and then Xu Xia understood why he was looking for someone.

However, it is really useful to ask someone to tell you for sure. The map of Baiqi Mountain was only surveyed in recent years.

The old mountain people have lived in the mountains all their lives and know more about the mountains than maps.

The power of the police is strong, but the result was achieved in just one night.

next day

Xu Xia took Qin Henian to the farmhouse where he stayed for the first day.

The person the police found was none other than Mr. Wang, the father of the farmhouse owner where the two had stayed.

Mr. Wang is over 60 years old this year. He has lived in Baiqi Mountain all his life. When he was young, he worked as a herb collector and knew Baiqi Mountain very well.

After knowing the purpose of the two police officers, Mr. Wang's eyes were blank and he fell into memories, "Baiqishan has been sparsely populated since ancient times. After the reform and opening up, only a dozen families moved away one after another, leaving only a few families living on the mountain. Later, the main peak was built as a scenic spot, so people started to go up the mountain again. Although this is a scenic spot, it is not peaceful."

As he said this, Mr. Wang felt a little sad.

"Old man, what's wrong with the law?" Qin Henian asked.

Xu Xia on the side had a serious look in her eyes. The old man was not talking about peace. He probably knew what he was referring to.

Sure enough, the next second, Mr. Wang was heard saying, "People disappear every year in Baiqishan."

Hearing this, Qin Henian cast an incredulous look at Xu Xia. People disappear every year, but this scenic spot is still not closed? Don't the police care? And are the mutilated corpses discovered now also among the missing?

Xu Xia smiled bitterly. He understood what He Nian meant. When he first investigated this case, he discovered this matter. When he combined the two cases, it became clear that the missing person was in trouble!

"Is this what you discovered before?" Qin Henian asked cryptically when there was an outsider present.

Xu Xia also understood what he wanted to ask, shook his head and said, "No."

Qin Henian frowned. He thought of the worst result. If there was a victim among the missing, the deceased was not among the missing.

This means that the number of victims has increased again, and the case will become a serial murder case again.

"Every year someone goes missing, and every year the police come looking for them, but none of them are found." Mr. Wang sighed. They were all young children. They were just gone, and his family would burst into tears.

"Dad, you should tell me about some hidden places on the mountain." The boss reminded.

Mr. Wang slapped his forehead in annoyance, "I'm older and talk a lot. You two police officers don't mind."

"There is a small ravine on the top of the east peak, a valley on the mountainside with a pool in it, and a cliff on the west peak. These three places were all discovered accidentally when I was collecting herbs."

After getting the information they wanted, the two took their leave.

After returning to the camp, Xu Xia immediately arranged for people to find these three places.

Qin Henian sat on the chair and tapped his fingers on the table, "Xu Xia, let's handle the case."

Xu Xia nodded, "Okay."

Qin Henian spoke first, "The murderer has or has had a very special occupation that requires frequent visits to the mountains, so he is very familiar with Baiqi Mountain, for example, he is a herbalist."

"We cannot rule out the possibility that the murderer is an aborigine. People who live in the mountains often go to the mountains."

"People disappear every year, which shows that the murderer's activities include Baizi Mountain."

"It's even possible that the murderer lives on Baiqi Mountain."

The two of them talked about the case, and in their words they both agreed that this was most likely a serial murder case, and Bai Qishan was the place where the bodies were dumped.

The corpses at the foot of the mountain and the disappearances that occur every year are all omens.
