Bright Sword: Technology is the primary productive force in war

Chapter 201 Huangpu River Female Corpse Case

A few days later, Chen Yan sat in his apartment in the concession, flipping through the calendar in his hands, muttering to himself:

"It's been three days. It seems like this woman really doesn't intend to let Rudy come back."

"Squeak..." Li San pushed the door and walked in, "Brother, the arms that our brothers bought from the black market have arrived."

"Oh, where is the thing?"

"Yangtze River Wharf Warehouse, this batch of goods belongs to the Shanghai Green Gang. We are not familiar with the locals, so we spent a lot of money to buy it. The transaction will be completed tonight."

Chen Yan took a sip of tea and said, "That's normal. It doesn't matter if I spend a little more money, as long as the product is good."

"I understand. I will bring the money and trade tonight."

Li San was about to go out when Chen Yan quickly called him:

"San'er, I'm really bored staying in the house these past two days, so I'll just take a walk in the evening and enjoy the river view.

Oh, by the way, you should also call Lao Li, he has been having a hard time these past two days."

Li San nodded and pushed the door open to go out.

On the other side, at the sluice gate downstream of the Huangpu River, a group of policemen set up a cordon, surrounded by nearby villagers.

A sheriff covered his nose with a white glove to block out the stench of the unrecognizable female corpse in front of him.

"Sheriff, this is the villager who reported the case," a young policeman saluted him.

The sheriff glanced at the reporter and said disdainfully:

"You were the one who called the police. Are you the thief crying thief?"

The villager who reported the case was an old man in his 50s. He was dressed in rags, with only a pair of straw sandals on his feet which were relatively intact. However, they looked to be of different sizes. The fishy smell emanating from his body should confirm that he was a local fisherman.

Hearing this, the old man's wrinkled face was filled with fear, and he looked pleadingly at the sheriff, who was in uniform and looked full of energy.

"Sir, I am innocent.

I just fished out the body this morning when I was fishing. I don’t know anything else.”

As he spoke, the old man actually began to cry.

The sheriff frowned and said impatiently, "It's happening again. It's really annoying.

Hey, take him away from me immediately."

The old man was afraid of being misunderstood by the police, so he wanted to explain the whole story a little more, but a policeman came over and dragged him away.

The sheriff walked up to the forensic doctor who was examining the body and asked, "Dahai, how is it?"

The medical examiner stood up and took off his heavy mask. "Shuxin, the deceased is a female. Based on the corpse spots, she died about three days ago.

The face had been bitten into pieces by fish and shrimp, and it was impossible to recognize its appearance.

She had injuries on her head and shoulders, but they were not fatal. She died from drowning. But it is very likely that she was beaten before her death."

The policeman walked around the female corpse and examined it carefully again, "Where are the IDs? Have you found any on her?"

"There is no identifying information," the medical examiner added.

Suddenly, the sheriff leaned down and looked at the female corpse's ears and neck curiously.

Then he looked at the woman's hand again, and an indescribable look flashed in his eyes.

"Xiao Wuzi...Xiao Wuzi."

"Sheriff, I'm here," a young policeman who was maintaining order outside the area heard him being called and hurried over.

"Xiao Wuzi, you take the brothers to deal with the rest of the matters. I'm leaving first. It stinks," the sheriff said as he fanned his nose.

Xiao Wuzi hesitated for a moment and asked quickly:

"Sheriff, what should we do next?"

"Stop talking nonsense. As usual, I'll close the case when I get back.

The police have such high requirements for solving cases during this period, so we have to do it as quickly as possible."

"But...what should we write in the case closing report? Are we not going to look for the victim anymore?"

Hearing this, the sheriff kicked Xiao Wuzi on the butt twice.

"What the hell, there must be at least 800 ghosts in the Huangpu River this year, if not a thousand, can I find them all?

When they go back, they will find someone to blame for their crime. The report will say that the client and the prostitute had a dispute over the price of the prostitution and the client accidentally killed the prostitute.

"Oh".

Seeing that Xiao Wuzi was still unwilling to give in, the sheriff gave him another big slap on the neck.

"You have a kind heart like a bodhisattva and are compassionate. Otherwise, you could just take the blame for this case."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuzi's face turned pale and he ran away: "Sheriff, please take care. I'm busy now."

The sheriff looked at Xiao Wuzi who was running away and complained, "If it weren't for my sister, you would still be working in the police station, you little brat."

Then the sheriff and the medical examiner drove away in the police car.

When Xiao Wuzi returned to the female corpse again, he muttered:

"Sister, don't blame me. Although you died tragically, it has nothing to do with me. It was not my idea to close the case hastily. If you become a ghost, don't look for me..."

In the police car, the forensic doctor took off his white coat and gloves, revealing a youthful face.

"Shuxin, your hasty closing of the case won't cause any trouble, I hope we won't investigate further."

The sheriff drove the car and looked ahead, "Da Hai, don't be so fussy like Xiao Wuzi.

I will be transferred to the Municipal Bureau soon, and I don't want to delay my future because of such a trivial matter. You know how many people are jealous of the Chief of Criminal Investigation of the Municipal Bureau. If someone catches my little braid, it will affect me for several years."

"If you're worried that others will find fault with you, just investigate it thoroughly. It's not impossible for you to find it out with your ability."

"Tsk," the sheriff said disdainfully, "So what if they find out? I can't afford to offend them.

The dead woman was not very old. She was wearing gold ornaments on her ears, neck, and hands. It was obvious that she was not an ordinary person.

This also proves that this is not a simple robbery."

Dahai listened to the sheriff's words without a trace of emotion on his face: "Could it be a murder of passion?"

The sheriff smiled bitterly and said, "It's not just that simple. This woman has calluses on the palms of her hands."

"I saw it...Huh? Do you mean this woman has been carrying a gun for a long time?" Dahai said in surprise.

"Yes, and he is an expert with guns.

This woman is definitely not an ordinary person, and I don’t want to cause myself any trouble.

Nowadays, when a father dies and a mother remarries, everyone has to take care of themselves, so she is unlucky."

Suddenly, Dahai seemed to think of something and said meaningfully:

"Shuxin, I heard a few days ago that a female spy from No. 76 was captured, and No. 76 is desperately looking for her."

"Squeak...squeak."

The sheriff looked nervous and suddenly slammed on the brakes, causing Dahai to almost hit his head on the windshield.

"Oh my god!".

The sheriff looked at the sea anxiously, "Are you sure it's from No. 76."

“Then I’m sure where to go.

However, after listening to your analysis just now, he knows how to use a gun, has money, and happened to be missing at the same time as No. 76, do you think it is a coincidence?"

The sheriff thought for a moment and turned the steering wheel.

“I’m not going to the Bureau of Industry and Information Technology anymore. I’m going back to the bureau first.

No. 76 is a disgrace, and each branch should issue a notice to find someone to see the situation."

Then the sheriff stepped on the accelerator and disappeared into the street.
