Chapter 1731 (1/2)
”Leader,” a police officer in Zhangze city said to Zhao Yu after people came to the well, ”we have been looking for missing persons who agree with the characteristics in nearby villages and towns!
”We think that since the body appears here, the murderer and the victim are probably from nearby villages and towns!”
After hearing this, Zhao Yu didn't answer, but focused on the well that appeared on the hillside.
The wells are indeed made of bricks and cement, which looks particularly rough. There is more cement along the well, but it is not particularly uniform. Bricks have been exposed in many places, which is particularly perfunctory.
”What exactly is the origin of this well?” Miao Ying asked, ”doesn't anyone know?”
”No,” replied the local policeman, ”I asked everyone in the forest farm and said I never noticed.”
”This well...” said Zhang Yaohui. ”It looks like it was built in the 1980s and 1990s. That kind of red brick looks very familiar. My hometown uses this kind of red brick.”
”Yes...” a guide said in the local dialect, ”we also use it to build a house now! But... If we need to dig a well in the forest, we usually use stones and local materials! ”
”Stone?” Zhao Yu asked, ”stone well?”
”Yes,” replied the guide, ”you can have a look. There are stone wells in the mountains. Stones are easy to find, but bricks are difficult to transport!”
”Also...” Miao Ying said behind Zhao Yu, ”such a deep well needs a lot of bricks. The traffic here is inconvenient. It must be very troublesome to build the well with bricks!”
”Yes, leader,” said the local police officer, ”this well is strange. From here to the gully, there are all streams with water all year round. If it's not a long-term life, there's no need to dig a well here!”
”The key is that there is no water in the well?” Zhang Yaohui sighed.
Zhao Yu still didn't answer and looked into the well.
”Leaders, be careful,” a police officer warned, ”because the well has been dug to the end, more than five meters deep! Be careful! ”
Zhao Yu looked down, but saw the dark inside. It was really scary.
Zhang Peipei, with his tools, hurriedly turned on a high-power flashlight and took it underground.
The distance of 5.5 meters can't see anything on the flat ground, but it's not shallow in the deep well down!
If a person falls from a height to the bottom of a well, he will have to fall out for good or ill, even if he can't fall to death.
”Have you... Dug your head?” Zhao Yu looked at the bottom of the well, looked at the large amount of soil and stones dug up next to her, and asked the local police officer.
”Yes, it has been dug to the bottom,” replied the local police officer. ”Further down, there will be no wells, and the soil has changed significantly and become harder.
”We dug a few more times, but we didn't find any more bones, so we stopped.”
”Moreover,” another local policeman added, ”I don't dare to dig down. The well is squeezed a little deformed. I'm afraid it will collapse!”
”Oh...” Zhao Yu nodded thoughtfully.
”Team leader,” said Zhang Peipei, ”shall we go back and bring radar to detect it?”
The radar mentioned by Zhang Peipei is the electronic pulse radar specially used by the police to find bones. It has been used in video homicides before.
”Don't use it for the time being,” said Zhao Yu. ”You'd better wait until the identity of the dead comes out!”
”Well, but...” Zhang Peipei said again, ”I've seen the test and analysis of section chief Wang. There is a clear difference between the soil at the bottom of the well and the soil where the corpse is buried. There should be nothing below!”
