Chapter 153 The fish was caught by the fisherman
Hearing this, Lin Ting frowned even more tightly.
Who would throw a suitcase into the river for no reason?
But before it was confirmed, Lin Ting did not inform Si Chen and others to avoid wasting police resources.
Lin Ting kept his promise and distributed the canned food he had promised to the kitten to them. Then he said softly, "Can you take me to the river?"
"Meow, I'll take you there."
The half-grown kitten held its neck high and its tail pointed towards the sky, leading the way for Lin Ting.
Soon the little cow brought Lin Ting to the artificial lake behind Mingzhu Community.
She had already left, but unexpectedly came back in the end.
She had heard before that this artificial lake was originally a huge artificial pond built by a breeder to raise fish here. Later, because this piece of land was favored by a developer, the fish pond was also bought by the developer. Later, when planning the building design, it was discovered that this artificial lake could not be used. Instead of having people backfill it, the developer built a small garden.
It can be used as a promotional point to sell houses here, and it can also provide a beautiful environment for residents in the community.
This artificial lake was previously an artificial fish pond with many fish fry stored in it, and it is very popular among anglers.
With those fry, I will never go back empty-handed.
It’s because the property is poorly managed that weeds are everywhere, and in many places the grass has grown to half a person’s height.
Lin Ting followed the cow through the weeds and came to the lake. He saw a man wearing a windbreaker and a sun hat standing in front of a suitcase and curiously opened the suitcase in front of him.
There was a group of kittens surrounding the suitcase.
These kittens look only three or four months old, and they are so cute with their silly looks.
Woo
'Open it quickly, open it quickly.'
'There must be a lot of big fish hiding in there.'
When the suitcase was opened, there was no fish inside. Instead, there was a woman lying curled up with her hair soaked.
The woman's entire body was so pale that it was completely bloodless, and her skin was swollen from being soaked. Perhaps because of the protection of the suitcase, the woman's skin was not eaten by the fish in the water.
I don’t know if it was because the body was thrown away not long ago, or because it was soaked in water, but the woman didn’t smell.
However, when the fisherman saw the person in the suitcase clearly, he was so scared that he took several steps back and fell to the ground. The kittens that were originally surrounding him were also scared and took several steps back.
Although Lin Ting was mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he saw the people in the suitcase. Lin Ting quickly took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Si Chen.
Within half an hour, Si Chen arrived with the criminal police team and completely blocked the nearby artificial lake. Even the fisherman was taken away for questioning by the investigators who followed them.
"Ms. Lin, you are really the lucky star of our police force. You have brought such great achievements to our police force in just a few days." Wu Dachuan couldn't help but come forward and tease.
Wu Dachuan was not just teasing Lin Ting. He really recognized Lin Ting's ability, but it was a pity that he could not be recruited to their police station.
Si Chen immediately glared at Wu Dachuan and said, "Stop being so joking and go do what you need to do. Although this area is relatively close to the Mingzhu Residential Area, the area is too wide to be easily investigated. Go check the nearby surveillance cameras first and do a quick screening."
"Okay, I'll go now." Wu Dachuan, who was originally smiling playfully, immediately became serious when he was doing business and led his team members to the property.
Si Chen glanced at Lin Ting who was standing by the river feeding a kitten, then came behind her with a bottle of water. His originally stern face gradually softened when facing Lin Ting.
He slowly stretched out his hand and handed the water to Lin Ting, "Tingting, are you okay? Are you scared?"
If you listen carefully, you can still hear the slight tremor in Lin Ting's voice.
"It's okay. I was just a little scared when I saw it just now." Lin Ting stood up and took the water handed to him by Si Chen.
"I've asked the kittens nearby, and they didn't see who threw the suitcase over. But I've asked Ping'an and Boss Huabi to find other small animals nearby to ask about the situation." Lin Ting and Si Chen briefly explained what they had learned.
Si Chen nodded. "Okay, then you be careful here. I'll go over to the side to see if there are any clues. I won't go far. Call me if you need anything."
Si Chen looked around at the surroundings. The body was soaking in water. In order to determine the time of death, the forensic doctor needed to go back and perform an autopsy to provide more accurate information. It had rained in Jiangcheng the night before, and a lot of evidence would be destroyed in the rain.
She has now obtained the aquatic animal communication language pack. Because she helped the baby find its owner and fulfilled the baby's wish, 5,000 points have been credited to her account. Maybe she can ask the animals in the pool.
Fish have short memories, and she wasn't sure what the fish saw.
Lin Ting whistled into the water.
As the whistle sounded, ripples appeared in the green water, and it seemed that an animal was swimming towards the shore.
Perhaps because no one has taken care of it for many years, the water in this artificial lake is not clear. On the contrary, it is emerald green and you can't see what's in the water at all.
In a short while, several carp appeared in the diving area near the shore.
Lin Ting took out a bag of beef jerky from her messenger bag. She tore open the plastic bag and threw the beef into the water.
Fish are omnivores and will eat a little bit of everything as long as it is edible.
"Can I ask you a few questions?"
Gurgle Gurgle
'This man is talking to the fish.'
"It's amazing that humans can talk to fish."
It is not difficult for humans to communicate with cats and dogs because cats and dogs are smart and can understand human speech and take corresponding actions according to human instructions, but fish are different.
The carp in the river was eating the beef jerky given by Lin Ting, while slapping the water with its tail, which soon created a splash.
Lin Ting pointed to the suitcase that had not yet been taken away by the forensic doctor and asked, "Have you seen this suitcase in the water?"
'Yes.'
"It wasn't caught by a fisherman."
"A fish must have hooked the fisherman's hook on it."
"That box has been emitting a terrible smell. It looks like there's food inside, but it's inedible. If it continues to soak there, the water quality will deteriorate, and the smell will keep the fish awake. Today, the fish saw the fisherman coming and hooked him in it."
"Hurry up and ask the fisherman to take it away, otherwise it will make you sleepless."
Lin Ting's mouth twitched. He didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"Then do you remember when the box was thrown into the water, and what the person who threw the box into the water looked like?"
Several fish that were wagging their tails suddenly stopped when they were asked, and they looked at each other.
Woo
"I don't know."
