"Anyway, Wang Xiaomei's colleagues, including all the clients she has contacted, must be checked. If there is no clear clue to the point, you have to go through it all even if it is troublesome." Li Fangfang said.

Xiao Ran nodded slightly and was about to continue searching, when He Xiaoli's voice came from the walkie-talkie: "The crime scene was discovered, and the location was five degrees northeast of the dog killing site, about 50 meters."

"Go over, don't look for it." Xiao Ran put away the UV flashlight and leaned straight towards He Xiaoli's location.

The first scene was on the path into the forest, but it had to go in a little further.

Under the illumination of strong lights and purple lights, there were traces of struggling on a obviously cleaned ground.

The technical team gathered over and squatted on both sides of the path, patiently distinguishing the destructive behavior afterwards, and doing their best to restore the crime that happened here seven days ago.

Lu Qin put a ruler on the edges of several almost invisible scratches, walked a few steps back, marking a piece of scratch marks, and finally discussed with Cai Wang, Qin Yongan and others, and marked another mark that seemed to be a friction between the upper and the ground.

"The murderer did have cleaned it, but because the on-site movement was strong, it was not as thorough as other places were cleaned. Moreover, the murderer seemed to be anxious at that time, so he could vaguely identify these traces."

Accompanied by the sound of taking photos of the SLR, Lu Qin pointed to the traces in the three areas and explained: "From the traces at the scene, the victim was face down at the time, pressed by the murderer, and tied to his neck with a rope.

At the beginning, the rope should not have been tightened. After the victim was knocked down by the murderer, his first reaction was to support the ground with both hands, but the rope between the victim's neck suddenly tightened. In the pain, the victim's muscles spasmed and his hands and feet moved, leaving these scratches, as well as the scratch marks on his toes and the ground. We will collect the soil samples at the scene later and compare the mud stains in the victim's nails.

Then this part should be left by the murderer. In order to prevent the victim from breaking free, the murderer knelt on the victim's back with one leg, and the other leg was tilted at about 30 degrees from the ground, and he slanted to the ground to gain the power to suppress the victim."

"Although the ground where the murderer pedaled was already messy, we can still roughly judge that this was a man's footprint, but the specific data must be calculated accurately before the approximate data will be given."

Lu Qin said, spreading a small self-sealing bag, taking some soil from a ground that seemed to have some watermarks and putting it in: "After the victim was strangled, he had incontinence. This should be the place where the deceased's urine was soaked. Forensic Qin, please go back and sit down and compare and implement the crime scene."

"Okay." Forensic Qin took the self-sealed bag and put it away.

Further analysis of the crime scene continued. Xiao Ran did not listen anymore, but just looked at Lin Mu above his head, frowned slightly, and continued to walk in along the path below his feet.

Through Lu Qin's analysis of the crime scene, it can be seen that when Wang Xiaomei was killed, she faced the ground and headed to the south.

This means that Wang Xiaomei may have been walking out at that time, and the murderer also walked out with her, and then took advantage of her lack of precaution and strangled her with a rope.

Of course, there are two situations when walking out: Wang Xiaomei knew the murderer and was not alert; Wang Xiaomei did not know the murderer, but when the two met, the murderer did not show any terrible intentions, and Wang Xiaomei did not find out that the murderer had done anything terrible, so she was not frightened and ran away as soon as possible.

However, it may also be that Wang Xiaomei ran out and the murderer chased after him, but in the process, Wang Xiaomei faced fear and might yell, which would attract the attention of people around her.

Therefore, Wang Xiaomei is less likely to run out and more likely to walk.

Regardless of whether Wang Xiaomei and the murderer recognize each other or not, since Wang Xiaomei may have slipped in with the murderer out of curiosity, what is the so-called murderer coming to this old forest?

As Li Fangfang speculated, he just talked to Wang Xiaomei and then killed someone in anger?

Or maybe there is a murderer's unspeakable purpose hidden here. Even if Wang Xiaomei just followed in curiously and did not encounter him, he would silence Wang Xiaomei?

Seeing Xiao Ran go away with a flashlight alone, He Xiaoli poked Li Fangfang, pointed at Xiao Ran with her chin and signaled Li Fangfang to follow her.

Li Fangfang knew what he wanted and hurriedly followed Xiao Ran. Finally, at the end of the road, he saw Xiao Ran holding a big tree that was so thick, tilting his head and wondering what he was thinking.

"What's going on? What are you looking at?" Li Fangfang then raised his head and saw nothing except the bare branches and the dark night sky.

Xiao Ran patted the thick tree trunk and made a dull sound: "We walked all the way from Mingxi Community, why is there only a small path in the old forest of Cangyuan New Club?"

Li Fangfang was stunned. He had never thought about this question, "Yes, why is there a small path in the old forest here?"

Xiao Ran did not explain, "Do you know what tree this is?"

"The Wuwuzi Tree, it is said that this kind of wood can drive away evil spirits and kill ghosts, and the fruits produced can be used as beauty cosmetics. It will take at least a hundred years for such a thick tree..."

Speaking of this, Li Fangfang suddenly realized: "What do you mean is that this road was stepped on by nearby residents when they came to pick up Wuwuzi? But is this related to the case?"

“It doesn’t matter.”

Xiao Ran shone the flashlight to the land around the tree roots, squinted his eyes and walked around the big tree for two times, and finally squatted down on the back of the big tree: "Can you see me when you retreat back?"

Hearing this, Li Fangfang quickly took a few steps back, "I can't even see the hair. This tree is too thick. Look, these small trees around you can't grow!"

"That's probably that."

Xiao Ran handed the flashlight to Li Fangfang, took out two disposable gloves and put them on, and carefully pushed away the thick dead leaves beside the tree roots.

"What's this? Let's make it clear?" Li Fangfang said in confusion.

"There were no signs of trampling on both sides of the road at the first scene. When Wang Xiaomei followed in, the murderer might be in this position, so Wang Xiaomei didn't see clearly what the murderer was doing."

Xiao Ran took away all the dead leaves beside the tree roots, and indeed a small piece of crushed soil was exposed.

"This is...so the murderer was burying something here at that time, and then Wang Xiaomei bumped into him. Although he didn't see what the murderer was doing, the murderer still decided to destroy Wang Xiaomei?" Li Fangfang finally roughly understood Xiao Ran's thoughts.

Xiao Ran held his breath and concentrated, pulled out the dagger, carefully dug out the soil in front of him, and dug about seven or eight centimeters down, and a little white and yellow substance was revealed.

Li Fangfang bent down, held up the flashlight, and watched nervously as Xiao Ran slowly cleared the soil from the material. However, when the soil was cleared away for half a time, Li Fangfang already understood what it was.

"Face!...skin!"

Xiao Ran swept away the soil particles on the face little by little. This face had been damp, but it did not expand and turn white. Therefore, it can be roughly inferred that this face had been deliberately dehumidified before it was buried.

This face is not very big, the mouth, nose, eyes and the cutting around is neat, a thin layer looks like a work of art.

Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and looked up silently at the thick Wuwuzi tree.

What is the purpose of burying human faces under a tree that can exorcise demons and kill ghosts?
