Chapter 656: Burial Ground
Half an hour later, more than a dozen police cars surrounded Xiaoniu Village.
Village chief Li Dahu and all members of the village committee were all arrested by the Criminal Investigation Corps and taken to the police car for questioning one by one.
Little old men and women in their fifties were crying and shouting, but no one paid any attention to them.
After all, these people have always been mainly responsible for managing the fish fillet factory. If something goes wrong, of course they will be the first to be blamed.
And now, Jiang Yang dug up a body in the factory.
Or rather, a pile of crushed human bones.
"Brother Yang, how did you find out?!"
Gao Jinyang was still a little confused. Wearing a mask and gloves, he looked into the pothole about one meter deep.
The technicians of the identification department are carefully collecting the broken bones. The human bones are too broken and will be missed if you are not careful.
Everyone stays far away so it doesn't affect their work.
Other personnel were also investigating the factory, looking for possible clues, with flashing lights in every corner.
"Smell, the corpse has a strong putrid smell, and it smells like aqua regia. It is probably the same as Huang Fen's case, and the murderer used a similar method to force the corpse to rot as quickly as possible."
"But use a larger amount, otherwise you won't be left with just broken bones."
Jiang Yang analyzed, "According to Li Dahu's confession, the land here was originally a wasteland and could not grow anything. In the past few years, we tried to grow herbal medicine, but failed. Rice and fruits were not suitable, so they were eventually used as foundation." A factory was built.”
"Before building the factory, relevant departments came to monitor and confirm the composition and condition of the land."
He looked around and said: "If the report is correct, that is to say, the body was buried after the factory was built. Combined with the fight that Li Dahu said at the beginning of the year, it is likely that it was during that time."
Except for Sister Wang who went to take notes for various village committees, everyone else gathered here for a small meeting.
Zeng Gaojie asked: "That means the murderer disposed of the body and buried it before re-sealing the concrete floor? But with so many pairs of eyes watching in the factory, how could he succeed?"
"It was closed at that time?"
Ji Dayu said: "I have seen the news, the notice about the closure of the fish fillet factory for three months. It must have been banned. It is said that several masterminds were dealt with within the village."
In such fights among villagers, there are usually no casualties, and the main consequences are fines and administrative detention and education.
"Tsk, what I said at that time was that the commotion was not big and the police station came forward to mediate it smoothly. But when Brother Yang asked Li Dahu just now, that's not what he said."
Gao Jinyang guessed: "I think most of the time the village committee deliberately lied about the truth, fearing that the superior leaders would investigate."
His statement was unanimously agreed by everyone.
The fish fillet factory itself is very coveted, and the development of Xiaoniu Village is in full swing. Once someone is caught, they must not make a big fuss.
Maybe the policy that originally belonged to Xiaoniu Village would be abolished and replaced by another village.
Competition between villages is also strong.
"That makes sense. Let's look for the original surveillance video. There may be some preserved."
Jiang Yang said, and then pointed out: "Also, check with the local police station to find out who participated in the fight and make a list."
"By the way, I've also made a list of the movement of people in Maverick Village. I remember it was included in the population registration for the first half of the year."
After all, everyone divided the work and cooperated.
Unfortunately, there is no way to monitor the situation. The security guard responsible for this area of the factory said there was no record.
"Officer Jiang, let me tell you the truth. Although we have surveillance cameras installed here, they are just decorations! They would not be turned on at ordinary times. Only when superiors come to inspect them would they be willing to turn them on."
"For example, if you come today without prior notice, we don't even have preparations, so we can only open one temporarily."
The security guard was very embarrassed.
"Firstly, the electricity bill is high, and secondly, the annual maintenance costs are high. It is not easy to open a factory and make money. Our village chief is stingy and thinks that we are all villagers and there is no need to use cameras."
At this point, he spread his hands and said helplessly: "That's how it is in rural areas. If it weren't for the supervision of leaders from all parties, safety and health would be a problem!"
As the words fell, he realized that he had let something slip, and wanted to make up for it, but it was too late.
Jiang Yang patted him on the shoulder and said nothing.
It was quite different from what he expected.
Originally, he didn't expect to find anything through the surveillance of the factory. He just asked casually and tried his luck.
After wandering around for a while, Jiang Yang returned to the edge of the pothole and asked the forensic doctor: "When will the DNA test report be released?"
After confirming the deceased's information, we may be able to get more clues.
"Just one day will do. I'll go back and submit it for inspection first, and I can send the preliminary report to your desk early tomorrow morning."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Zhao."
"No matter how polite you are, it's all about serving the people."
Jiang Yang chatted with the forensic doctor a few more times and confirmed the possibility of using aqua regia.
While Zeng Gaojie and others were contacting the local police station, Jiang Yang walked to one of the police cars outside.
Li Dahu was sitting inside with a sad face, trembling in response to the questions from the two policemen.
"I'll do it."
"Okay, Brother Yang."
Jiang Yang patted Xiao Liu, took his seat and sat down.
"Officer Jiang! I really don't know anything! I, I didn't know those human bones were buried under the ground! I thought they were dead fish!"
Seeing Jiang Yang, Li Dahu found his backbone just like meeting his family.
He was scared to death and burst into tears.
If such a big thing happened, he might not be able to keep his position as village chief.
This is secondary, the main point is that Li Dahu doesn’t want to go to jail!
"Okay, stop yelling in front of me."
Jiang Yang slapped away his face, which was covered with snot and tears, and asked coldly: "Has anything strange happened recently? Or something contradictory or suspicious. It doesn't matter."
Of course he knew that Li Dahu was innocent.
Even the people in the village today are ordinary people.
Jiang Yang walked a full circle around Xiaoniu Village before police support arrived.
The crime radar is filled with white and green dots.
There was no trace of the criminal.
However, this does not mean that everyone in Maverick Village is innocent.
It is also possible that you go out to work and are not in the village.
"Officer Jiang, you are really asking me questions."
Li Dahu thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't hold back a fart.
"Our fish fillet factory is run by people from the village. We originally hired three or five people from other villages, but they all left one after another because they thought the money was too little and the food and accommodation were not included."
"We are all from the same village. How can something strange happen if we look down but don't look up? The conflicts are even more difficult to say. Is there any conflict among people who have lived here for decades? I don't even know where to start. There are a lot of gossips. ! What do you call suspicious behavior? Does being on duty in the factory in the middle of the night and sneaking out to look for the mistress count? "
