"I think so too. The riverside was just a dumping site. The murder scene hasn't been found yet. If we find the primary scene, there must be more evidence." Lu Xiangxiang suggested, "Another thing is that the Zheng family doesn't seem willing to identify the murderer. They even said we made a mistake and that it wasn't their daughter."
"By the way, Mingwei, check if there is anything unusual happening in the Zheng family recently."
"And justice, you two keep an eye on those murderers."
Zhou Ziheng immediately realized the meaning of her words. She wanted to find evidence that the Zheng family had been bribed. The only explanation that would make the Zheng family disown their daughter was profit.
Everyone separated, and Lu Xiangxiang followed him to find the place where the murder took place.
According to the dream, they were playing on the river bank upstream that day, which was still some distance away from where the head was found.
Looking at the familiar place that was exactly the same as in my dream, my heart began to pound. If this was the case, then the dream was real.
Zhou Ziheng also followed in the exploration. With Lu Xiangxiang's casual words, they came to the abandoned courtyards on the roadside.
I don't know when that yard was built. It's a bit dilapidated and many bricks have fallen off.
There was no one living there at all. When Lu Xiangxiang and the others pushed open the door and walked in, they found it was clean.
In the dream last night, they dismembered Zheng Qiuyu in this yard, but the place was spotless. It was obvious that his family members had found out about this and sent someone to clean it up.
However, even if it has been cleaned, it is impossible to clean it completely and there will definitely be some clues.
"Captain Zhou, do you think it's possible that this is the original crime scene?"
"There are a few houses by the river, it's possible." He nodded.
Lu Xiangxiang lowered his head and searched carefully. In this era, there was no such advanced equipment as in later generations. Even if the bloodstains were wiped dry and washed, the detector could still detect the presence of blood.
Precisely because it was not so advanced, they did not clean it up very perfectly. Lu Xiangxiang found something. When she saw it, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. It was a piece of hair. She carefully lifted the floor tiles in the room and found that there were obvious blood stains on the tiles that had not been washed clean.
"Captain Zhou, look." She said, pointing somewhere.
Zhou Ziheng walked over and stared at the place she pointed at, his eyes deep: "It seems that this is the first crime scene."
Lu Xiangxiang nodded: "That should be it, let's lift up the floor tiles next to it."
Zhou Ziheng helped, and soon the other floor tiles were lifted up, revealing a large pool of blood. With the two of them working together, all the floor tiles were lifted up, and they saw the ground covered with bloodstains.
"It seems that today's work was not in vain." He smiled.
"Yeah." She nodded.
Just as the two were busy, there was a click outside the door. They both looked out and saw a skinny girl standing at the door staring at them.
The girl was very thin, almost like a skeleton. We could still see faces like this during the Great Famine a few years ago. How can we still see such a thin child now that we are not experiencing a famine?
"Little boy, why are you here alone?"
The girl ignored her and stood there motionless.
"This is not a place for children. You should go home first." They are still investigating the case. This is the first murder scene, so they naturally have to protect it. If children want to play here, it will be destroyed, so she asked the children to leave first.
"Are you from the Public Security Bureau?"
"Yeah." She nodded.
"If you're looking for the sister who was cut into pieces, she's in the river." The little girl pointed in the direction of the river.
The two men paused and looked at the little girl.
"Little girl, what do you know?" Lu Xiangxiang ran to the little girl excitedly.
"A month ago, I hid in this house to avoid being beaten by my stepmother, and then I saw many people doing bad things to my sister. They even used kitchen knives to cut her into pieces."
Found her. She's an eyewitness. Although this girl is a little young, she can still be a witness.
"Captain Zhou." She looked at Zhou Ziheng with joy.
It was really a case of searching for something without any effort. Today they finally found it, and all the anger I felt yesterday was gone.
"Little boy, can you go to the police station with your sister?"
"Do you have anything to eat?" The girl answered the question irrelevantly and asked her directly.
She was stunned. Food?
She felt in her pocket and actually pulled out a few packets of cookies from the space and gave them to her: "Is this okay?"
The little girl grabbed the biscuit in her hand, opened it and gobbled it up.
She ate the biscuit in a few bites, and looked at her with a pair of twinkling big black eyes.
The girl's face was very thin, and her eyes were large and prominent, making her look a little scary.
"Sister has no food for the time being. If you want to eat, come with us first. I will take you to eat something delicious." She squatted down and said to the little girl.
"Okay." The little girl agreed immediately.
Lu Xiangxiang reached out and held her hand. Her hands were very thin, small and black, just like chicken claws, dirty, small and pitiful, but she didn't dislike them at all.
"Captain Zhou, what should we do now?"
"We need to preserve evidence at the scene. Wait here. I'll get you some food and call Zhengyi and the others over." He said and left.
Lu Xiangxiang stood there with the girl, "Little girl, how did you see them working?" She pointed to a place where there were several boards.
It doesn't look like it can hide anyone, but the little girl is so thin that she can actually shrink into it.
"I was hiding there. They did something bad to one of my sisters that day. The bag we brought couldn't hold all the things, so they broke it into several pieces and put them in." The girl spoke calmly about the cruel incident, her tone calm.
"Thank you for telling me this." She touched the girl's hair.
The two waited here for a long time, and finally Zhou Ziheng came with Yan Zhengyi and others. At the same time, he also packed some things in lunch boxes and brought them over.
He packed dumplings, which are easier to digest than rice and less filling than porridge.
The little girl ate very quickly, wolfing down the food.
She finished the dumplings quickly, her little face looking very satisfied.
Zhou Ziheng and his team also took a camera, which was already available in the police station. They used the camera to take pictures of these things for preservation.
After finishing the work, they took Lu Xiangxiang and the others back to the police station. The little girl was not taken to the interrogation room. She was interrogated by them in the office.
It was Zhang Mingwei who took the statement, while the others just listened.
The little girl repeated what she had just said to Lu Xiangxiang, and the record was ready.
