Chapter 60 A murder occurred in Beihai area

Su Rui found it a little unbelievable.

To be honest, he knew that he was going to receive the first-class merit, and it definitely involved him. After all, he had indeed helped the Beijiang Branch catch a lot of wanted criminals during this period, including quite a few A-level wanted criminals, so there was no problem in giving him the first-class merit.

Even if he was awarded first-class merit three times, it would be reasonable.

If it were a police officer on the public security line, solving so many major cases in just a week would not be as simple as being awarded three first-class merits.

It is possible to be promoted several levels at one time.

Moreover, with these major achievements, his future career may not be smooth sailing, but at least he will be promoted in due time, and maybe he can even reach a certain level in a short period of time.

For Su Rui, being awarded first-class merit three times was considered very little.

Of course, Su Rui didn’t care about these things. It didn’t really make any difference to him how many times he was awarded the first-class merit.

What’s more important is that he was specially appointed as a special consultant to the provincial department, municipal bureau and Beijiang branch. This is unprecedented not only in recent decades, but also in hundreds of years.

Not to mention the special advisers of the Municipal Bureau and Beijiang Branch. Although they do not enjoy the treatment of regular employees, having this identity is equivalent to having a layer of identity, which makes it much easier to get things done wherever they go.

Moreover, even when he was a special consultant, even those department-level or even bureau-level leaders had to respectfully call him Consultant Su.

Even if it comes to Song Qing and Xing Shixuan, when they see him in the future, they have to call him Consultant Su instead of Su Rui or Xiao Su.

This is the change that identity brings.

Not to mention people like Li Anmin.

Of course, the only person who could accomplish so many feats in about a week and catch a Class A wanted criminal like a clay man is probably Su Rui.

But even so, this third-level consultant was somewhat beyond Su Rui’s expectations.

After all, this is not just a special consultant for the Beijiang Branch, but has already involved a higher level.

This rocket-like speed made even Su Rui, who didn’t care about it, feel like he was dreaming.

After announcing the above decision, Guan Songqing stepped forward and handed the first-class medal of honor and letter of appointment to Su Rui.

“I didn’t tell you in advance that I would hire you as a level-three special consultant, so don’t have any ideas about it.” He walked up and patted Su Rui on the shoulder, like an elder looking at a younger person, his eyes full of satisfaction.

“Director, I don’t have any ideas, I’m just afraid…”

Guan Songqing seemed to have heard what Su Rui wanted to say, and smiled gently: “I know what you want to say, don’t feel any pressure. Hiring you as a Level 3 special consultant is a sign of trust and affirmation of your ability. After all, you have helped our Ningcheng police a lot during this period. If you don’t move up, it will be bad for you. I want to help you apply for Level 4.”

“Come to think of it, the higher-ups have mentioned this before, but after thinking about it, I decided not to. Giving it would only add to the trouble.”

“Besides, I know you’re afraid of trouble, so I’ll just help you reject it.”

Level 4?

Su Rui swallowed. He had never thought about this before.

Fortunately, Guan Songqing refused, otherwise he wouldn’t know what to do.

To be honest, if he really became a level 4 special consultant, he would not dare to accept it. Otherwise, once it was announced on the Internet, and he was so young, who knew how much trouble he would get into.

Keyboard warriors don’t care about that. They will start criticizing you just because they see your age.

Even if the official explanation is clear later, there will still be doubts.

Su Rui is a person who doesn’t like trouble, and he is even more unwilling to get involved in these things.

Now that Guan Songqing had helped him refuse, he was not unhappy, but relieved instead.

Next, Guan Songqing introduced the people who came today to Su Rui, and Su Rui greeted them one by one.

Although everyone called him Consultant Su, Su Rui did not act arrogantly in front of these big guys. Instead, he greeted them like a junior.

Several people were chatting happily in the office.

at the same time.

Somewhere beside a highway, there is a pear orchard covering an area of ​​70 to 80 acres.

Shang Yougang is the fruit farmer and owner of this pear orchard. As usual, Shang Yougang comes to inspect the pear orchard in the morning.

On the one hand, to prevent passers-by from stealing, the pear orchard is located next to the highway. Although generally few drivers will stop their cars to steal pears, this kind of thing happens from time to time. Shang Yougang has to patrol frequently. Although there is no way to eliminate it, it can reduce the losses caused by theft.

On the other hand, the growth of the pear trees can be observed, so that problems can be discovered in a timely manner and early intervention can be made to prevent the pear trees from becoming diseased and spreading to other pear trees, causing huge losses.

About halfway through the patrol, Shang Yougang felt that the weather was gradually becoming hotter and sweat began to appear on his forehead. He carried water and prepared to find a cool place to rest for a while.

In the middle of the pear garden, there is a camphor tree, and Shang Yougang usually enjoys the cool under the camphor tree.

Today is no exception.

But just when Shang You arrived not far from the camphor tree, he saw a woman wearing a white top and jeans sitting there with her back against the camphor tree.

Shang Yougang was stunned for a moment, thinking that someone had come to his pear orchard to steal pears, so he subconsciously shouted to stop him: “Why are you running into my pear orchard?”

“Hey, I’m talking to you.”

Shang Yougang shouted a few words loudly, but when he saw that the woman ignored him, he walked up to her with an angry look on his face, only to find that the woman was tied to a camphor tree with a steel wire rope, her face pale.

It was obvious that the woman was dead.

And judging from the current situation, death will not happen soon.

Maybe he was here last night.

Shang Yougang was so shocked by the scene that he was speechless. His heart beat faster and a chill ran down his spine.

“Someone’s dead…someone’s dead!” Shang Yougang shouted a few times subconsciously, and then he remembered that this pear orchard covering an area of ​​70 to 80 acres was located in a remote area. There was no one around except the highway, and no one would come no matter how much he shouted.

Shang Yougang immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. This was not a simple break-in, but a murder case.

Shang Yougang swallowed and quickly took a few steps back. He did not dare to look at the dead woman again. Instead, he forced himself to calm down. He did not touch the scene to avoid destroying the evidence and immediately took out his mobile phone to call the police.

“Hello…Hello! I’m calling the police!”

“Sir, please take your time and don’t be in a hurry.” The female police officer at the 110 Command Center calmed Shang Yougang’s anxious mood.

“Someone’s dead…someone’s dead.” Shang Yougang was just an ordinary person after all. He was extremely nervous when he said this.

When the policewoman heard that someone was dead, her tone suddenly became serious: “Where are you now?”

On the phone, Shang Yougang reported the situation he found as clearly and concisely as possible to the female police officer, including the specific location of the opera house, the woman’s attire, and her obvious lack of vital signs. The female police officer responded quickly: “We will send someone over right away. Remember not to destroy the scene, but don’t leave either. The most important thing is to always pay attention to your surroundings. If there is any danger, protect yourself first.”

“But you don’t have to be too nervous. The woman should have been dead for some time. The murderer is unlikely to stay nearby.”

Having said that, after Shang You hung up the phone, he couldn’t help but glance around, especially behind him, for fear that someone would get close to him and kill him directly.

After making sure that there was no one around, Shang Yougang moved several dozen meters away from the woman and stayed near the scene at a certain distance to prevent any people or animals from approaching and destroying the scene.

But I didn’t dare let my guard down.

In this case, the murderer should have fled long ago, but no one knows whether he really ran away. What if there is something important left in the Liyuan?

Maybe Jiu will come back to get it, and when the two of them meet, will he let him go?
It’s impossible even to think about.

Killing one is killing, killing two is killing.

Fortunately, nothing happened for a while, and Shang Yougang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he was thinking about whether there had been any unusual circumstances recently, so that he could provide possible clues to the police later and help them catch the murderer as soon as possible.

Shang Yougang thought about it for a long time, but for a moment he couldn’t think of anything wrong in the opera world recently.

Except for uncontrollable weather conditions, he would come to the Pear Garden for inspection several times almost every day. He didn’t see the woman when he came yesterday.

But it happened today, and it was obviously something that happened last night.

He kept this in mind and planned to explain the situation to the police later.

Soon, the sound of police car sirens came from far away.

Someone had died, and people from the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Beihai Branch quickly arrived, including Fang Chuanyi, the top leader.

Someone died in my jurisdiction, which is no small matter.

So I postponed all other things in the morning and came here together.

After the people from the Beihai Branch arrived, they quickly cordoned off the scene and began a detailed investigation and evidence collection.

Shang Yougang cooperated with the police in the questioning and described in detail the process of how he discovered the woman, as well as all the relevant information he knew, hoping to help the police find out the truth as soon as possible and bring the murderer to justice.

After a period of on-site verification, a criminal police officer quickly walked up to Fang Chuanyi.

“How is it?” Fang Chuanyi stopped asking Shang Yougang and asked quickly.

“The deceased was wearing a white coat on his upper body and dark black jeans on his lower body. His neck was hung on one side by a wire rope, and his hands and feet were also tied tightly with ropes. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be murder.”

The criminal police quickly explained what he had learned.

“Also, we found a bloody slab next to the deceased.”

Fang Chuanyi didn’t say anything and quickly walked towards the deceased. Sure enough, there was a blood-stained stone slab in front of the deceased. The stone slab was about the size of a book and as thick as a dictionary.

At this moment, a forensic doctor was also conducting a preliminary examination at the scene. Seeing Fang Chuanyi coming over, he hurriedly said, “The deceased’s skull was fractured. The preliminary diagnosis is that the cause of death was blunt force trauma, and it was probably this stone slab that caused the death.”

“The time of death should be around 8 hours, which is around a.m.”

“Are there any personal belongings or anything that can confirm the identity of the deceased?” Fang Chuanyi thought for a while and asked.

One of the police officers shook his head and said, “We searched the area but didn’t find any personal belongings. We can’t confirm the identity of the deceased for now.”

“Keep searching. It was so dark around here last night that even with a flashlight you can only see a very small area clearly. There must be some clues left behind.” Fang Chuanyi ordered quickly.

“This is a remote pear orchard in the suburbs. Usually, no one except the fruit farmers sets foot here. There must be many traces left by ferocious beasts at the scene.”

The police officer nodded, and then everyone started searching for evidence, spreading out little by little from the deceased to the surrounding areas.

But perhaps the murderer was too cunning. More than a dozen people from the Beihai Branch searched for a whole morning and found no traces or clues until they reached Rizhong.

“How about it?”

Under the scorching sun, Fang Chuanyi looked at Ai Xuezhang, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Beihai Branch.

Ai Xue Zhang shook his head.

“Keep looking. I don’t believe that someone would come here in the middle of the night to kill someone and leave no clues at all.” Fang Chuanyi said coldly.

Ai Xue Zhang nodded and continued to arrange for others to collect evidence.

At this moment, a police officer suddenly found a brand new red business card in the bushes. The police officer picked it up and took a look at it, then quickly reported to Fang Chuanyi: “Director Fang, I found a brand new red business card about 200 meters away from the deceased.”

“Two hundred meters…”

Fang Chuanyi frowned, took the business card, took a look at it, and then showed it to Shang Yougang: “Have you seen this business card?”

Shang Yougang took a look and shook his head, saying, “I haven’t seen it.”

Fang Chuanyi held the business card in his hand and looked at it for a while.

The business card is too far away from the deceased, so it is difficult to say what connection it has with the deceased.

Plus, there’s a highway nearby, so this business card was most likely dropped by a passing driver and then floated here.

Of course, it is also possible that it was thrown out by the ferocious beast when it drove away.

After a while, Fang Chuanyi suddenly remembered that it rained in Ningcheng the day before yesterday. Although the rain was not heavy, if this business card had been in the Liyuan for a long time, it should not be so new. There would at least be some dirt on it.

Thinking of this, Fang Chuanyi told everyone his guess: “This is enough to prove that this business card should have appeared in the past two days, and it is even possible that it was left by the murderer to smash the scene.”

“Go, get a few people to throw business cards on the nearby highway and see if there’s a chance that they’ll float to Liyuan, which is less than 200 meters away from the deceased.”

Hearing this, Ai Xuezhang, who had not held out much hope, suddenly brightened up: “Director Fang, you are worthy of being an investigator in the army. You can even think of this.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Send someone to try immediately. Also send someone to invite the cable wholesaler on the business card to the bureau to cooperate with the investigation. This business card may be the key to solving the case.”

“Yes, I’ll make arrangements right away.”

Seeing that Ai Xue Zhang had gone to arrange the work, Fang Chuanyi sighed.

I hope my guesses are correct!
Otherwise, if there is no way to confirm the identity of the deceased, the case will be difficult to solve.

The most important thing is that the longer the delay, the smaller the possibility of solving the case.
