A carpet search is actually a very painful thing.
Because the search area is too large, and there are too many places that require your concentration to search, even if you mobilize a lot of manpower and material resources, you may not get any results.
So generally speaking, carpet searches are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and have the lowest return.
But when you don't have more intelligence, this is also the most efficient way.
At least, if you follow this stupid method, there is still a possibility of success.
Fortunately, with the advancement of technology, searching for some things no longer requires the most primitive methods as before.
For example, if there is metal buried under the ground, you can use a metal detector.
In order to find the bones, we use a detection machine similar to X-ray.
This machine looks like an oversized sweeper and needs someone to push it. The small computer connected to it also needs someone to hold it and check the situation under the ground at any time.
When encountering difficult road conditions, it even requires the cooperation of multiple people, so it can't be called a perfect machine.
However, compared to mobilizing a large number of people to dig the land inch by inch in order to find the bones that may be hidden in the land, it is already extremely convenient.
This is also why the Xixinle Criminal Investigation Bureau is willing to send people to help with the investigation, because they don’t need many people. In this case, why not give them this favor?
Hattori Heiji drew a simple map based on the nearby terrain, and then began to paint the searched areas red bit by bit as the machine moved forward.
Although every step was slow and every corner needed to be searched, Hattori Heiji still followed closely beside the machine.
The small area near the cabin was not very large, but it took 15 minutes to search it bit by bit, but nothing was found.
But everyone was prepared for this task, so they continued along the road towards the mountains.
Fortunately, although there are dense trees here, there is still a dirt road because locals come here frequently.
Although there was a slight slope, the road was not too dangerous, and the machine scanned every inch of land it passed through without difficulty.
Finally, their hard work paid off. Just when they were desperately thinking about whether to climb the mountain to scan the nearby slopes, they saw a different scene underground!
A yellow-green scene was displayed on the blue and black screen, and the shape was clearly that of a hand bone!
“Found it!”
Hattori Heiji looked at the image on the X-ray machine and his face lit up with joy. He then quickly said, "Come over here and dig here!"
Including Hattori Heiji, everyone kept digging with shovels and finally dug out a skeleton from the ground.
"Maybe everything can be solved now."
Seeing the technicians from the scientific research institute processing the skeleton, Hattori Heiji did not rush to call Karasawa. Instead, he waited until he brought the skeleton back and compared it with the treatment records of the dental clinic. He confirmed that the treatment marks were the same as the tooth model before notifying Karasawa.
Of course, the cause of death cannot be determined because the body was buried underground for too long, but there are signs of fracture on the top of the skull and the bones in the neck are also damaged, which may be the cause of death.
Judging from the angle of the skull fracture, it is very likely that he was hit by a left-handed person.
"Left hand..."
After obtaining important information investigated by Hattori Heiji, Tang Ze couldn't help but squint his eyes when he heard the news, and the gun in Inspector Kakuta's left hand when he died flashed through his mind.
The fracture on the corpse's skull was caused by the left hand, and Inspector Kakuta is also left-handed.
Considering the connection between the two parties, it is very likely that Inspector Kakuta killed him.
But too much time has passed, and all the evidence has been buried in the dust. Even the person involved died not long ago, so nothing has been concluded.
But at least from the current situation, 18 years ago, Inspector Kakuta, Yakushiji and other three people who were still students participated in the summer camp in Nishishigaraki Plateau.
There, they met the local gangster Kato Takanori.
Then, for unknown reasons, the four children were involved in the death of Kato Takanori, and the four of them kept this secret hidden for eighteen years.
And after that, perhaps it was destined that the two drug dealers and the two criminals met again.
After that, Hisaki Ritsuko and the other two were threatened and became the accomplices of the two men.
"Judging from the current situation, it seems that Jiuqi Ritsuko is trying to silence the three people who know about her past."
Hattori Heiji said: "You must find Yakushiji as soon as possible, he will probably be killed by Hisaki Ritsuko.
How's it going? Any progress over there?"
"Just now, Detective Shiratori found the cell phone that the guy had randomly tied to the truck during the deception." Tang Ze said, "So far, this is the only clue we have."
"Hey, hey, isn't it the same as if you guys knew nothing?" Hattori Heiji on the other end of the phone was speechless.
"Don't think of the Metropolitan Police Department's current investigative methods with the typical detective mindset."
Tang Ze smiled and said, "You thought he tricked us by luring us away from the mountain, so that we only brought back a cell phone, but in fact, he also told us his location."
"Oh? Did you find anything in the phone?" Hattori Heiji asked in surprise.
“Not in the phone, but in the phone itself.”
Tang Ze said calmly, "Maybe Yakushiji is doing something, so they're trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain in an attempt to escape our search.
