snow corpse

I looked around here just now. Although I don't know all the plants, this is the only allergen that can be determined. "

Li Dabao thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was the case. Qin Ming and Lin Tao were still searching around to see if they could find anything similar to iron plates, but obviously, they found nothing. "Lin Tao, Lao Qin! Come here!"

"What's the matter, what did you find?" Lin Tao raised his body first and responded. He and Qin Ming were on the other side of the forest, tens of meters away from Li Dabao, and they basically communicated by shouting.

"Fang Mu discovered something that can make people allergic!"

As soon as Lin Tao heard this, he immediately walked towards them. After walking a few steps, he found that Qin Ming hadn't followed. When he turned around, he saw him squatting on the ground not far away, holding a bunch of things in his hands and meditating.

"Old Qin, Dabao said that Fang Mu found the source of the allergen, let us go and have a look..." He walked up to Qin Ming as he spoke, squatted down next to him when he saw him not moving, and waved his hand in front of his eyes , "Hey! Why are you in a daze?!"

Qin Ming was so disturbed by him that he lost the mood to continue thinking. He just threw the pile of soil in his hand on the ground and let Lin Tao look at his palm.

The five fingers with distinct joints are not slender, and there is a callus on the pad of the index finger, which is slightly thick.But it was not Qin Ming's hand that caught Lin Tao's eyes, but the dripping mud particles in his palm, which looked like blood mixed with blood.Qin Ming wiped away the dirt with his other hand, and with a little force on his fingertips, a bloodstain, as transparent as water, slowly appeared in front of his eyes along the traces of gravel.

"This……"

"It's blood." Qin Ming said, "The color of the blood has been diluted, probably because the snow that fell these days has melted, so the blood has been diluted. I don't know if there will be more blood in the deeper soil. , but judging by the current situation, I guess—”

"This should be the first scene of the incident."

Lin Tao pondered for a moment, "It is indeed very possible."

"If my guess is correct, there is a good chance that some part of the second body is still buried here."

"You mean... Maybe I'm stepping on a thigh?"

"Probably."

"..."

Lin Tao's hairs stood on end, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Dabao walking over, complaining as he walked, "I said, what are you two doing here? You won't listen to me..." Qin Ming's fingers still lingered. Touching some moist soil, "Hey, are you two eating dirt here?"

Thinking of the soil full of blood, Lin Tao couldn't help retching. Li Dabao swallowed his saliva with eyes full of surprise, "Damn it, won't you really eat it?!"

"think too much……"

"The Moonlight Clan has no right to refute."

Lin Tao rolled his eyes, "Recently, it's a special situation, so it's only moonlight. I also have the consciousness of saving money to support my family, okay?"

"That's right, you didn't eat dirt, you didn't eat dirt," Li Dabao was afraid that his baby would be long and short, so he quickly stopped him, "It's because I wronged you, why not!"

Qin Ming stood up leisurely, "Polymer edible soil costs more than 300 yuan a pack." Lin Tao couldn't afford to eat even if he wanted to.

"Pfft..." Fang Mu, who followed Li Dabao, couldn't help laughing.

"Okay," Lin Tao held his forehead, his brain twitched in pain, "Lao Qin found bloody soil here that can prove that this is the scene of the crime, and the suspect is likely to kill people here And dismembered."

Fang Mu immediately frowned when he heard the words, squatted down, squeezed some soil with his hands, and rubbed it on his fingertips. As expected, a light red mark was left on his fingertips. He smelled it closely, and the rusty smell of blood was already very faint, almost only The smell of mud.Li Dabao also came over to smell it. Her sense of smell is very sensitive, and she could distinguish the disgusting smell almost immediately, "It is indeed blood!"

"What is the allergen you just mentioned?"

"Oh, Fang Mu just found a large clump of Dalbergia japonica in the forest. This kind of plant will secrete oil after being injured or infested by insects, and then produce fragrance. This kind of Jiangzhenxiang may be allergic to the catalysis of the human body's sweat. Phenomena, but it also depends on the individual's physique." Li Dabao swallowed his tongue with concern, "I accidentally became allergic."

Lin Tao was confused, "Why are you allergic?"

"Hi—" She waved her hand, indicating that the past should not be brought up again.

Fang Mu on the side explained it kindly for her, "I told her that the juice from two rosewood vines in the wild can be drunk..."

"Then you drank it?" Qin Ming interrupted him coldly, although he was asking Li Dabao, he stared at Fang Mu without blinking.

"Ah..." Li Dabao scratched his head embarrassingly, "Who knows, I won the lottery, and the probability of a small probability event happening to me is a bit high. But it's just a little numbness in the tongue, it's not a big problem .”

"Brother Bao, you are really a big foodie, you eat all this stuff," Lin Tao said to Fang Mu with a look of disgust, "Fortunately, it's not a big deal, why don't you stop her?"

"It's my fault that I didn't tell her in advance that she might be allergic." Fang Mu slightly apologized, and then smiled wryly, "How can I stop..." That speed is simply a supersonic pulverizer!

Lin Tao nodded with deep sympathy, Li Dabao couldn't walk when he saw food, and the gods would jump three times when he saw it. Everything is a fart before eating.Li Dabao was embarrassed by what was said, but now he didn't dare to talk back, and silently hid behind Fang Mu and rolled his eyes.

Qin Ming pursed his lips with an unfriendly expression, and after a while he said slowly, "Let's settle the matter here first. If this forest is the scene of the crime, and the Dalbergia japonica, which can cause people's allergies, is facing this On the other side of the forest..."

"Could this be the case," Lin Tao pondered for a while, "The first corpse we found was presumed to be a lumberjack in the forest farm. Allergies should not show up so quickly on the body surface, so it is very likely to be Allergies had developed a few days before being killed..."

"Impossible, you forgot that we didn't find anything on the body when we first came here, except for the marks of being strangled on the neck..." Li Dabao retorted, "So this allergy must be the day when he was killed It happened, during the time when the body was cooling down, symptoms appeared on the body surface..." She suddenly gasped, "It doesn't seem right, when we came up the mountain, the deceased had been buried in the snow for a few days, it's impossible Afterwards, life reaction occurred again, resulting in swelling and ulceration in the mass area..."

"Maybe it didn't break naturally." Fang Mu guessed, "It's very likely that it was scratched when it was moved or by the claws of small animals."

Li Dabao's eyes widened instantly, and she suddenly thought of the severed arm that appeared under the firewood pile, "It's not impossible!"

"The mass of the corpse was crushed and damaged, not scratched by a sharp object," Qin Ming said, "so basically this possibility can be ruled out."

"Then it can only be broken when moving it..." Li Dabao touched the tip of his nose resentfully.The corpse was buried in the snow for a few days before being discovered. After they went up the mountain, they moved to the firewood house of Han Ningye’s family. The firewood house was in poor condition. The mats are also uncomfortable, and the thick-soled shoes in winter feel painful to the feet.

Fang Mu suddenly raised his head and asked, "Have you judged the death time of those two corpses?"

He looked very urgent, Li Dabao raised his head and looked at Qin Ming, Qin Ming said, "Because the bodies were found in the snow, the time of death of the two bodies has become difficult to determine, but I can be sure that the time of death Not more than a day apart."

"Is it possible... that they died on the same day?"

9.2

Qin Ming's eyes darkened, as if thinking of something, his face changed a few times, and after a long while, he said slowly, "It's possible."

"Let's make a bold guess." His eyes moved, and some thoughts kept going back and forth in his mind... two dead people, dismembered corpses, blood-stained mud, strangled... "It is very likely that the murderer did not It was intended to kill two people at once, but if that happened, what circumstances would result in being killed at the same time?"

The answer is ready to come. "One of the deceased witnessed the killing of the other."

"That's right." Fang Mu nodded, "The murderer first killed one of the dead, and was seen by another person in the process, so he had to kill the witness."

"Then why only one of the corpses was dismembered?" Qin Ming raised his eyebrows, "It doesn't make sense."

Fang Mu didn't speak, but it was Li Dabao who smoothed things over, "What Fang Mu said is very reasonable, and it's not impossible. The matter of dismembering the body may have been planned, in case another The corpse was discovered by us before it could be dismembered?"

Qin Ming glanced at Li Dabao, then silently closed his mouth.Seeing that no one paid attention to her, Li Dabao had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and took a bag from the evidence box he carried with him, and used tweezers to take some clods of soil and put them in the bag.She also took a little of the Liangyue Dalbergia found earlier, in case of emergency.

The group searched the forest for a few more times and decided to go back after finding nothing. Before going back, Lin Tao wanted to call the police at the foot of the mountain and send a few people to help, but found that there was no signal, so he had to go to the village to get in touch. people.He specifically told Xiao Hei to bring a few shovels, Xiao Hei asked in a daze if he was going to dig a grave?Lin Tao almost answered, his little black and white eyes almost pouted.But fortunately, the implementation was very good. Lin Tao received a call in the afternoon saying that the sent people had already gone up the mountain, and they would arrive in about an hour or two.

For more than an hour, Lin Tao could be said to be restless.
