Chapter 651: The Words on the Female Corpse
After hearing Sister Xiu's speculation, Huo Juncheng's suspicions about Chen Jie became even stronger. Huo Juncheng suddenly remembered that he had asked Zhang about Chen Jie some time ago but had not heard anything, so he left the table and went to the balcony.
"Hello?" Zhang answered the phone.
"Captain Zhang, it's me. I'm calling to ask if there has been any progress or clues in the investigation of Chen Jie that I asked you to do last time?" Huo Juncheng asked after hearing Captain Zhang's response from the other end of the phone.
"Hiss~ About Chen Jie's matter, I'm sorry, Mr. Huo. I've been a bit busy lately and haven't dealt with it. I'll help you investigate it when I have time." Zhang answered Huo Juncheng's question apologetically.
"Hmm? What is Chief Zhang busy with recently? I want to see if I can help." Huo Juncheng asked in confusion.
"There have been too many things happening recently. Taohua J is missing and..." Huo Juncheng interrupted Zhang Suo just as he was talking about Taohua J.
"What? Didn't he go abroad to investigate the Flower Cult? How could he disappear?" Huo Juncheng had an expression of disbelief on his face, his eyes wide open.
Huo Juncheng thought, Taohua J is Yilan's third senior brother. If Yilan knew that her third senior brother was missing, she might make a fuss to look for him...
After being interrupted, Zhang Suo paused for a moment before continuing, "Not only that, there are several more bodies washed up on the beach in Haicheng, so I really don't have time to help you right now. Please forgive me."
After hearing this, Huo Juncheng understood Zhang's difficulties and stopped asking for more. However, he thought that if the problem could not be solved immediately, there would be no progress on Chen Jie's matter.
After thinking it over for a while, Huo Juncheng said, "Captain Zhang, I'll go help you. More people means more strength. Come help me when you're done."
"Well, that's fine. It just so happens that I'm short of manpower. There are too many things to do and not enough manpower." Zhang replied.
"Okay, I'll be there soon." Huo Juncheng hung up the phone and turned to look at Yilan in the house. He decided not to tell her for now and tell her after he was done with this.
Huo Juncheng then calmed down and walked in. Lin Yilan saw him and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"No, it's just that Chief Zhang needs my help, so I have to go there now. Where's Sister Xiu?" Huo Juncheng answered Yilan as if he knew nothing.
"I will take care of Sister Xiu. You go and do your own thing first. Don't overwork yourself. Come back and rest early when you are done." Yilan was still a little worried about Huo Juncheng. After all, after so many things had happened, she was afraid that he would be hurt too.
Huo Juncheng went upstairs to pack up and drove away.
After arriving at the location, Huo Juncheng saw that Chief Zhang was already waiting at the door, so he walked up and followed Chief Zhang into his car.
"Mr. Huo, we will go to the scene to investigate soon. If you feel any discomfort, don't force yourself to stay. Just wait for me in the car." Zhang You was a little worried that Huo Juncheng had never seen such a scene before, so he reminded him.
But Huo Juncheng didn't think so. He felt that a few corpses could not do anything to him. It was obvious that Chief Zhang was worried about the wrong person.
Although he thought so, after arriving at the destination, Huo Juncheng was still shocked by the scene in front of him.
Four or five police cars were parked nearby. The area was cordoned off with no-entry ropes, and police officers were patrolling the beach in groups of three or four.
After Chief Zhang led Huo Juncheng through the rope and entered, the patrolling police came up and asked about the situation, and Chief Zhang stepped forward and actively cooperated.
Huo Juncheng was left standing, looking at the corpses not far ahead. The wind was strong and the waves were fierce, but the corpses made people feel pity.
After Zhang finished his work, he came to Huo Juncheng and said, "Are you okay? If you find any clues, just come find me. I'm going to be busy now. Keep going."
Huo Juncheng nodded and watched Zhang leave, then walked towards the corpses in front of him. Only after he got closer could Huo Juncheng see the faces of the corpses clearly.
After being soaked in sea water for a long time, the face has turned white and wrinkled, but this does not affect the identification of the identity at all.
Huo Juncheng walked up to a corpse and squatted down, observing it from head to toe. Not seeing anything unusual, he switched to another one. After checking all the corpses, he still didn't find any clues.
The policeman nearby looked at it with disdain, thinking, we have already searched it once, if you can find it, we lose.
But Huo Juncheng did not give up. He continued to check again and found a Buddha amulet in the soil next to one of the bodies.
Before Huo Juncheng could say anything, the policeman next to him started shouting. Seeing this, another policeman went to call Chief Zhang.
When Zhang Suo found out, he rushed over and walked to Huo Juncheng's side. He looked at the Buddha amulet he had dug out and asked in confusion, "How did you find it?"
"Because this piece of mud is a little bulgy and there are no holes next to it, it doesn't look like a place where crabs or clams live, so I tried to dig it. Chief Zhang, you should put it away quickly." Huo Juncheng replied, shaking the mud in his hand.
After hearing this, Zhang took out a plastic bag from his pocket, and then put on medical gloves and put the Buddha amulet into the bag. Zhang observed the Buddha amulet through the bag and found that there was a word "Yan" on the back of it.
"Mr. Huo, thank you very much for finding such a big clue for us. This will provide more directions for the subsequent investigation." Chief Zhang couldn't help but tremble as he held Huo Juncheng's hand.
Huo Juncheng pulled his hands free, took out a tissue from his pocket, handed it to Zhang Suo, and said, "No, it's what I should do."
Zhang took the tissue, wiped the mud off his hands, and said to the person next to him, "Quick, inform the bureau of this news, and then take this Buddha amulet back to investigate immediately. We must seize this clue and investigate carefully in this direction. Don't miss anything."
While Chief Zhang was still busy, Huo Juncheng continued to look for clues.
It got dark quickly, and soon it was already dark at the beach, and the street lights along the road were already on.
Zhang Suo reminded Huo Juncheng that it was already late and asked him to go home.
Huo Juncheng looked down at his watch and realized it was indeed very late. He should go back, or Yilan would worry again. So he ran to the side of the road and took a taxi.
After returning home, I found that the house was still brightly lit. However, I didn't see anyone when I entered the house, so I went upstairs and came to Yilan's room.
Before entering the door, Huo Juncheng heard some noisy noises. After opening the door, he found that Yilan was packing her luggage.
Seeing this, Huo Juncheng hurried forward and said, "What's wrong, Yilan?" As he spoke, he pulled Yilan's hand, stopping her from continuing to clean up.
Lin Yilan saw Juncheng rushing over and pulling her, and her anger suddenly disappeared. However, she still said angrily, "Huo Juncheng, why didn't you tell me about my third brother!"
Huo Juncheng asked in surprise, "How do you know?" Faced with Lin Yilan's questioning, Huo Juncheng didn't want to make excuses anymore.
