◎Chapter 32      The dog holds the head

Obviously, there are corpses buried in this bamboo forest. The roots of bamboo pass through the corpse, grow into bamboo shoots and push the skull out of the ground.

The skull is covered with mud and the color is dull. It can be judged from the appearance alone that it has been buried in the soil for many years.

Captain Niu was very excited and immediately conducted an investigation and sampling work. While working, he said that, apart from the serious crime team, unrelated personnel were asked to leave the scene. The special case team was watching, and it was boring. Captain Niu did not let them interfere in his work. The four of them left angrily. Hualong cursed and said, "Fuck, what's this? We have become redundant people."

The deputy director provided a list of detainees released by the detention center in the past month. After entering the detention center, criminals or suspects will take half-body and one-inch-free photos, and the photos will be included in the archives together with the negatives. Based on the information and photos, the special case team carried out investigations, focusing on checking handsome young people.

The special case team analyzed that Director Peng Caihong's lifestyle is unconditional and there are many rumors, and it may be that he was killed by people released from prison. Two people on the list are the most suspected, one is Aimang and the other nickname is He Dan. Both of them live in the western suburbs of the county, not far from the detention center in the western suburbs of the county. Aimang usually loves to practice bodybuilding, has a strong muscle, and looks handsome. He has won the title of City Bodybuilder Mr. and was detained for fifteen days on public security for suspected attacks on police officers. He Dan is a gangster in the county, with a handsome face and looks very much like the star Lin Zhiying. He entered the detention center for provoking trouble. He should have been detained for half a month, but was released three days in advance. There are many rumors in society that these two people had an affair with Director Peng, and He Dan also recognized Director Peng as his godmother.

A patrolman drove Hualong and Bao Zhan to find Aimang's home. Aimang's father claimed that Aimang had gone to a gym in the provincial capital these two days to be a coach, and his girlfriend was looking for him. The two used to have a good relationship, but now they are breaking up.

Hualong and Bao Zhan had to temporarily give up Aimang and investigate He Dan. The patrolman said that He Dan was a famous gangster in the county and often called himself a gangster. Recently, the county cracked down on him, and He Dan would definitely not dare to go home. The patrolman took Hualong and Bao Zhan to the ice rink, searched around the karaoke bar and Internet cafe, and finally found He Dan in a billiard room.

He Dan was playing billiards with a few little punks. When he saw a few people walking towards him, he realized that the situation was not good, so he threw down the club and ran away. The other little punks also ran out in a swarm.

He Dan ran very fast, Hualong chased a street, pulled his hair to the ground, handcuffed him, and took him back to the billiards room.

Walking to the door of the billiard room, Hualong pushed He Dan into the police car. At this time, a car rushed towards Hualong. Hualong had no time to dodge, so he accelerated and ran a few steps, stepped on the front of the car, and a beautiful side-flip, the car drove just under his body, and then landed steadily on the ground.

Some people came out of the car, all holding machetes and bats, and the little punk who had just played in the billiards room also ran over from behind. A group of people were aggressive and asked to put He Dan down. Hualong took out his gun and asked them to retreat. However, the group of people remained indifferent and surrounded the police car and refused to leave. Hualong said, "Okay, it seems that we will give you some colors."

Hualong handed the gun to Baozhang. The patrolman was very nervous and was in the car calling for help.

Hualong took a step to the air and kicked a sideways, kicked a little gangster away, picked up the steel pipe on the ground, then rode the sideways, knocked off a machete in the other party's hand, then stepped on the man's foot, hit the lower abdomen with a knee. The man groaned in pain, bent down, Hualong threw it out, and the man knocked down another gangster with one head.

These moves were quick and dazzling. In almost the blink of an eye, three gangsters fell to the ground.

Hualong threw away the steel pipe and said, "Get out, according to the rules of the underworld, I have already shown mercy, otherwise you will either die or be disabled."

The group of gangsters showed a look of concession in their eyes. Bao Zhan sounded the sirens, and the group of people became panicked and the birds and beasts dispersed.

Hualong and Bao Zhan, the patrolman was about to leave with He Dan, and an old man came to the police panting and called the police that a wolf dog appeared on the street just now, with his head in his mouth. Two joint defense team members led the masses to block the dog in a dead end. Hualong thought it had nothing to do with them, but Bao Zhan wanted to go and see it. The patrolman was also very curious, so everyone drove there.

The alley was crowded with people, and many people followed from the street. The people in the front were holding bamboo poles, bricks, iron clothes hangers and other weapons, and a man was holding a fishing net. The people in the county were chasing and blocking the dog at the end of the alley. The people on the outside talked about it, saying that the dog was holding a bloody head in his mouth. Baozhan squeezed in front and saw a frightened wolf dog in the corner. The dog was not holding a bloody head in his mouth, but a person's skull.

The joint defense team members and the bold masses approached step by step. Someone smashed them with a stone. The dog put down the skull in his mouth, grinned and made a threatening sound. Everyone retreated one after another, and then stepped forward, preparing to kill the dog, but the dog suddenly jumped onto the wall and ran away.

Bao Zhan brought the skull back to the Public Security Bureau. The identification results showed that the skull was an unearthed skull and its death time was no less than fifty years. It should have been buried somewhere and was stripped out by a dog with its claws. The soil sample on the skull was analyzed and tested as the soil in the bamboo forest near the detention center, which shows that the skull was probably buried in the bamboo forest.

Professor Liang and Su Mei interrogated He Dan.

Professor Liang: "When you catch you, what did you run away?"

He Dan: "Catch me, why don't I run away?"

Professor Liang: "We just want to ask you something. After asking, if you don't have your business, I'll let you go back."

He Dan: "I don't know anything, and it's useless to ask."

Professor Liang: "You have a godmother, right? Director Peng from the detention center was killed. I think you have heard of it too."

He Dan: "I don't know, I haven't heard of it."

Professor Liang told He Dan that the case is serious and if you want to clear the suspicion, you must cooperate with the police. Otherwise, you cannot rule out the suspect of murder and the police will definitely investigate in depth. After Professor Liang talked about the interests, He Dan realized that he had committed small cases such as fighting and fighting in the past, and now it is related to murder, and his situation is not good. He confessed some of his bad deeds to the police and truthfully explained the relationship between Director Peng and him. According to him, Director Peng is a slutty and slutty old woman. He recognized her as her godmother and just wanted to leave the detention center a few days in advance.

He Dan was once in the detention center for provoking trouble and was detained for 15 days in public security. During this period, Director Peng had sex with this handsome young man many times in the director's office on the grounds of a physical examination, and later released him in advance.

He Dan had no time to commit the crime. In the two days of the incident, he and his friends were collecting debts in the countryside, and this statement was also confirmed.

This clue was interrupted...

A crowd reported a shocking news to the Public Security Bureau. The crowd was an old hunter. He claimed that the dog holding a human head was not a dog at all, but a wolf!

There is a wolf in the county town, which is quite a matter. The county public security director personally led people to conduct a large-scale search in the urban area, but it was not found and it is likely that he had fled to the countryside.

This news also attracted the attention of the special case team. Professor Liang believed that if it was really a wolf, it might have been from a canine farm near the detention center. Hualong and Baozhan, accompanied by the quarantine department and the health department, inspected the farm and found no abnormalities. The owner of the farm was a Taiwanese man nicknamed Lang Qing, who was in his fifties and wore a pair of glasses and looked gentle, but his arm had tattoos and his words and deeds were also stained with the atmosphere of the underworld.

Lang Qing claimed to be a dog-loving person. He introduced the types of dogs in the farm to the inspectors as if he had known them. In addition to Tibetan mastiffs, the farm also has world-famous dogs such as sheepdogs, Caucasian dogs, and Whippets. The farm is in good hygiene and passes the inspection.

Hualong and Bao Zhan also visited the orphanage near the detention center. The orphanage is a large yard with a tall old locust tree in the yard and an old trellis nest on it. In addition to the dormitory, there are several plastic greenhouses and various flower seedlings are planted in the simple greenhouse.

Over the past few decades, Mrs. Luo has adopted hundreds of orphans, and there are reports on TV and newspapers. There are now 65 orphans in the orphanage, but older children are all in the city’s boarding schools, and only a dozen children are left in the orphanage.

Neither the farm nor the orphanage obtained any valuable information. The special case team had no clue about the case and did not know where to investigate the next step.

Captain Niu found major clues one after another. He transferred an excavator and asked the armed police to assist in martial law in the entire bamboo forest, prohibiting anyone from entering. He personally operated the excavator, shoveled the bamboo, and dug out some bones in the bamboo forest one after another, some of which were even near the wall of the detention center.

Captain Niu identified the bones and tested the soil samples all night long, and worked for two days and two nights.

On the morning of the third day, the county public security bureau chief panicked and told the special case team an incredible news: Captain Niu is dead!

Professor Liang said in surprise: "Ah, no, how could he die? He was exhausted?"

The county police chief's eyes turned red, and he wiped his tears and said, "I was killed by someone and shot him. The murderer killed him with his gun."

Hualong asked, "Where is death?"

The county public security bureau chief said: "On the river beach three kilometers away from the south of the city."

Bao Zhan said: "Strange, he has been working all the time, how could he run to the river?"
