Chapter 111: The Double Act Guess Comes True
After Deng Xingwang asked the older brother, the older brother said he didn't know either, but gave him the phone number of the owner of the Shijia Village convenience store, saying that they had always lived in the village and must know.
Qiu Jiang called the number he had written down to confirm the information with the other party.
After hearing the reply, Qiu Jiang's eyes lit up and she immediately looked at Ji Mingcheng, "Captain Ji, the boss said that Chen Dayou's mother's grave is about two kilometers away from the village entrance, which is well within Chen Dayou's reach."
Upon hearing this, Ji Mingcheng's lips curled up slightly, "Very good."
Then he stepped on the accelerator hard, and the car shot off like an arrow, never to return, just like his happy mood at the moment.
Deng Xingwang had learned from a previous experience, so when Ji Mingcheng accelerated and hit the back of the chair, he held on tightly to the chair, with his legs spread apart in the most stable front-to-back position to ensure that he would not be as miserable as last time.
Shijia Village is located in a remote area, so there is no direct bus from the city center.
Most people who want to get into the city can only drive themselves or take a ride.
Therefore, there is not much traffic on the road here, but the road here is not very good either. There are often big potholes on the road, and even Ji Mingcheng's big jeep sometimes shakes.
Qiu Jiang felt dizzy from the shaking, but her eyes were bright and she just wanted to know whether her and Captain Ji's guess was true.
If that's true, that would be great.
She was a little anxious and wished she could get to Shijia Village immediately.
Fortunately, after a difficult journey, they arrived at Shijia Village before three o'clock in the afternoon and successfully entered a country road.
The road had a very steep slope at the beginning, so they braked hard in front. After passing the first hundred meters, the road ahead was bumpy and hard-pressed. The four of them bumped around for a long time before they finally saw several special police cars.
The road was impassable, so Qiu Jiang and the others quickly got off the car and headed straight for the figure in the distance.
At this time, each member of the special police team was searching everywhere with a bomb-sniffing dog. Luo Yi was observing the surrounding terrain with a telescope in his hand, and he saw Ji Mingcheng and the others at a glance.
He immediately put down the telescope and waited for them to come over. When they came to him, he couldn't wait to take two quick steps and said, "Brother Ji, what news did you receive? I still can't find any explosives here."
It's no wonder that Luo Yi is anxious. You know, it's no small matter that less than 40 kilograms of explosives cannot be found. Once an explosion really occurs, it will definitely be a major safety accident, and no one will be able to escape unscathed.
But they had been searching for a whole day and found nothing.
It wasn't surprising at first. After all, they had mobilized all the special police forces in the city to search within a distance of two hundred acres. Even so, it was still a huge search project for them.
He was so happy when he received a call from Ji Mingcheng more than an hour ago, and thought he could find the explosive pack quickly.
As a result, he brought a few people and searched the area thoroughly, but they didn't find any trace of explosives.
So maybe the explosives aren't here.
If this is true, he must also ask his brothers in other places not to be careless.
"Explosives?"
The owner of the nearby convenience store was so shocked when he heard this that he had no idea that they were searching for explosives.
I have absolutely no idea why there would be any explosives here.
He was so stunned that he lost his voice.
Seeing Luo Yi's anxiety, Ji Mingcheng skipped the small talk and said directly, "Brother Luo, there is indeed a clue that proves that Chen Da may have placed the explosives here. Could you please let us brothers search again?"
Luo Yi said nothing, "Okay, let's search again, but if we still can't find it, we can't waste our time here anymore."
"Okay, brother, I understand what you mean." Ji Mingcheng replied him.
Luo Yi nodded, called his brothers, and led them to continue searching.
Deng Xingwang also got a general idea in the car and knew that Chen Da might have buried the explosives near his mother's grave, which was really surprising.
However, this place is indeed unexpected, and he can barely accept the reason why Chen Dayou did this.
But he still couldn't understand why Chen Dayou was so talented.
What's wrong with your brain?
As for why he would rather suspect that Chen Dayou was mentally ill than suspect that Ji Mingcheng and Qiu Jiang's guesses were wrong, there are mainly two reasons.
One is that both of them are the people he trusts the most, and the other is that according to his past experience, as long as Team Ji and Qiu Jiang come up with a guess, no matter how outrageous their guess is, it will often come true in the end.
He absolutely believed that this time would be no exception.
I just feel that the thinking process of gang leaders is indeed different from that of ordinary people.
If it were any of them, they probably wouldn't have hidden explosives near their own mother's grave.
But this is really a good idea. At least when he comes here, others will definitely think that he is here to pay tribute to his deceased mother. Who would have thought that he is here to bury explosives.
After all, he is a talented person.
"What a talented person." Deng Xingwang repeated it several times and praised Chen Dayou several times.
Little did he know that he would soon be even more impressed by the man's genius.
Let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s first say that Luo Yi searched the area within a radius of 200 meters and found no trace of explosives.
He came over with an anxious look on his face.
Ji Mingcheng and the others were naturally not idle either, looking around and searching.
When Luo Yi came back, Ji Mingcheng and Qiu Jiang were squatting beside a stone tomb, pinching the soil on the ground and looking at each other.
Before they could say anything, Luo Yi was already there. Seeing them playing with dirt, he was extremely anxious. "Brother Ji, we haven't found anything yet. I'm so worried. How come you don't look anxious at all?"
Ji Mingcheng stood up, brushed off the dirt on his hands, and said seriously, "I'm anxious. I'm looking for it."
"try to find?"
Luo Yi lowered his head and glanced at the small stone tomb on the ground. Behind the stone tablet was a small stone tomb for ashes. It was not large in area, but very unique.
You have to know that in this era when earthen graves are the norm, very few people in rural areas would build stone tombs for their families.
What's more, he even cremated his family members.
It’s not that cremation is not a good idea. After all, cremation has been promoted in China for more than ten years and has been implemented very well in cities. However, in rural areas, there are still many people who cannot accept cremation.
Just like this Shijia Village, they had encountered graves when searching other places, but as he had just thought, almost all of them were burials.
Even if this happened, this is the only stone tomb among the adjacent graves.
It can be seen that Chen Dayou's family conditions are quite good and he is willing to spend money to build a stone tomb for his mother.
But whether or not they repair the stone tomb has nothing to do with the police!!!
Could it be possible that by staring at someone's mother's stone tomb, I could make a wish and ask her spirit in heaven to tell me where her son placed the explosives?
Putting aside the fact that feudal superstitions are no longer important nowadays, even if there really is a ghost, she is Chen Dayou's mother. Why would she betray her own son?
Luo Yi was really anxious now, and started thinking about these things in his mind.
He was very anxious and almost mad at the sight of the two of them acting so unruly.
"Hey, both of you, stop being mad at me and think of a solution quickly. We can't just keep searching aimlessly!!!"
Seeing how anxious he was, Qiu Jiang replied on behalf of Ji Mingcheng, "Captain Luo, we are looking for him."
She pointed to the side.
Luo Yi looked over anxiously, wanting to see where the shabby place she was pointing to was.
He just didn't believe there was a place here that they hadn't found.
But when he looked in the direction she pointed, his eyes suddenly widened and his mind went blank.
I haven't looked for it. I haven't looked for this place at all.
But what kind of good person would look for something in someone else's mother's grave?
Luo Yi seriously suspected that the two of them were playing tricks on him.
Even if it was Ji Mingcheng, he couldn't play tricks on him like this.
Luo Yi was about to get angry when he saw Ji Mingcheng pointing to the side.
"Brother Luo, the weather has been really bad lately. The rain has washed away the graves. Now that we've seen it, as police officers, shouldn't we help close it?"
Luo Yi looked at him in disbelief, then went back to look at the living tomb.
Yes, the stone slab on the tomb is a little crooked, but it can't be said to be broken.
Can you help me close it?
What does this have to do with anything?
No, he really suspected that the explosive pack was hidden in someone's mother's grave?
His brain was almost out of control today. He didn't know whether to say that he had a rich imagination or that he was very bold to dare to pry open someone else's tomb to take a look.
Luo Yi's forehead was almost wrinkled into a "川" shape, and the most important thing was that the two of them didn't look like they were joking at all.
His head felt dizzy.
"Ouch, I can't take it anymore. I feel dizzy."
He put his hand on his forehead, but Ji Mingcheng quickly supported him and said with concern, "Brother Luo, take care of yourself."
He pays no attention to his body.
Luo Yi pointed at him and asked, "Aren't you afraid of not being able to find the explosives and getting complained about?"
In this day and age, even if you are a policeman, you can’t do anything about digging into someone’s grave.
As long as they are discovered, they will inevitably be beaten, and it may even affect the relationship between the police and the public.
Ji Mingcheng groaned, "Brother Luo, you're confused. The tomb has already been broken open. We're just helping to close it."
Ji Mingcheng argued with him seriously.
Tell lies, tell lies with open eyes.
Luo Yi was really eye-opening today. Everyone said that the captain of Team Five was powerful, but today he was not only powerful, but also bizarre.
Such a bad idea can be thought of.
He stared blankly, still reluctant to agree.
Compared to Ji Mingcheng's improper behavior, Qiu Jiang has to produce valid evidence and provide a compromise.
"Captain Luo, Chen Dayou's mother's tomb is a stone tomb. Behind the tombstone is this small grave for the ashes. If I remember correctly, as long as it's a grave like this, there's no earth buried in it."
"But the soil covering this tomb is still soft. It's obvious it was thrown here from the side. And the cracks in the stone slabs clearly show this isn't the first time."
"Who would have the time to do something like this?"
Qiu Jiang's question really made Luo Yi pause. After a long pause, he said, "What if the owner of this land threw it there while watering and turning the soil..."
When he said this, even he was stuck.
Even if he is not a criminal investigator and may not be professional enough, it is obvious that seeds have been planted in the field a long time ago. Now the seedlings have grown out. Watering is possible, but how can the soil be turned over?
Wouldn't that destroy the crops?
Besides, except for this small piece of land, there is no trace of the soil being turned over in the surrounding farmland.
In this case, it is easy to imagine who the person digging the soil could be.
However, Luo Yi still couldn't accept that someone would actually do this, and stammered, "Even if there's something wrong, you can't pry into someone else's grave."
Qiu Jiang chuckled, "Who said we were going to pry it open? Have you forgotten what Captain Ji just said? The tomb has been opened, revealing a crack."
As she spoke, she took out a seemingly unused brush from somewhere and swept it along the gap in the middle of the stone slab. The loose soil was quickly swept away, revealing an obvious groove and gap.
She scratched like this, and the gap blocked by the mud became deeper and deeper, until she could no longer reach deeper with the brush in her hand. Then she stood up and winked at Ji Mingcheng.
It turns out that Chinese people like to compromise. They can't openly open the tomb, but they can accept brushing it with a brush. That's why they have never been stopped.
Ji Mingcheng quietly gave her a thumbs-up, then glanced sideways at the stunned Luo Yi, "Brother Luo, could you please lend me a bomb-sniffing dog?"
Luo Yi shouted in a trance to a man in the distance who was leading a dog over. The man and the dog ran over quickly. When they were about a hundred meters away from here, the bomb-sniffing dog led by the man suddenly barked wildly and rushed towards here frantically.
“Woof woof——”
The man was frightened and shouted, "Xiao Hei, stop——"
But Xiao Hei seemed to have gone crazy, running wildly on all fours. When he reached Qiu Jiang, he howled wildly at the place where she had just been.
“Woof woof woof—”
Luo Yi: “…”
“Fuck—”
He cursed in horror.
The police dog could smell the scent of explosives, so he had nothing to worry about and immediately went to ask someone for a shovel.
The owner of the convenience store was reluctant to leave, and was watching from a distance. Seeing that they had been staying by the tombstone of Chen Dayou's mother for so long, he asked him if he had a shovel.
Then I thought about what I heard when this team of plainclothes police arrived.
Explosives.
Could it be that Chen Dayou buried the explosives in his mother's grave?
He suddenly smelled the scent of gossip and became excited all over.
"I know someone. I'll find him for you."
With that, he ran away happily, being more active than anyone else.
After getting the shovel, two people pried the edge of the stone slab, and the soil that Qiu Jiang had not finished cleaning fell into the tomb with a clattering sound.
The sound was like dirt falling on plastic.
They held their breath and stared intently, and soon the two stone slabs were pried open, revealing the true appearance of Mount Lu inside.
I saw a large black bag lying quietly in the middle of the tomb, and a black urn was squeezed to the edge of the tomb, almost merging with the black bag.
At this time, all the bomb-sniffing dogs nearby started barking wildly, and they struggled to break free from their friends' hands and ran towards this side. It was so crazy.
Wang Li put on gloves and opened the black plastic bag, and the neatly arranged explosive packs became clearly visible.
“Fuck—”
What a fucking filial piety.
Deng Xingwang couldn't help but swear.
