Chapter 534 Test Results
After listening to the elder sister's description, Lu Yi had a general understanding of the livelihood of the nearby residents. These farmers should be similar, mainly relying on collecting volcanic ash in exchange for wages.
The men in their families were most likely doing manual labor in Qiuye Town, such as collecting and transferring volcanic ash, firing it into furniture or whistle shapes, and other jobs such as transportation and sales.
Although Qiuye Town is poor, the volcanic ash-related industrial chain is very large, and there must be a great shortage of jobs. Therefore, it should be a common phenomenon for nearby farmers to work there, as my eldest sister's husband did.
"Thank you for telling me these details." Lu Yi smiled politely.
"Can you tell me what kind of company you sell the volcanic ash to every time you collect it? Also, are there many companies in Qiuye Town that buy volcanic ash?"
"Not much." The eldest sister shook her head.
"Every time I collect raw materials, I send them to the 'Dust' company. They have business people who are specifically responsible for purchasing volcanic ash, and they offer the highest price.
In addition to Fuchen Company, there are also some self-employed people in the town who buy raw materials sporadically, but the price they offer is relatively low. I only consider selling to those people when Fuchen Company has too much inventory and suspends purchases. "
Hearing this, Lu Yi thought for a moment, then expressed his gratitude to his elder sister and set off again.
Later, he and Tropical Dragon found several more farmers, but their situations were basically the same as that of the elder sister. They usually made a living by collecting volcanic ash and had no impression of the whereabouts of the car.
However, the more the investigation progressed, the more Lu Yi felt that the car was related to Fuchen Company.
Different farmers provided different information, and these scattered clues were eventually pieced together to form a complete puzzle.
First of all, Qiuye Town is very backward, and can even be described as "poor". According to the description of the locals, there are only a few luxury cars in this small town, and there are even fewer large enterprises.
In the TV main story and the "Ruby/Sapphire" series of games, the venue of the Pokémon Grand Contest is in Qiuye Town, and Xiaoyao once participated in the competition here. However, due to the convenience of transportation and the size of the town to accommodate tourists, the venue of the Grand Contest has now been replaced by the battle tent, and the former has moved to Shuijing City. (Emerald version)
There are only a few companies or units in Qiuye Town that can have luxury cars, including Fuchen Company and the battle tent. Once Miss Junsha confirms the information of the car, Lu Yi will be able to lock down their "circle" based on the different identities of the deceased and conduct the next step of investigation.
In fact, the clues of this case are very clear, and it is not difficult to confirm the identities of the two bodies. Moreover, the murderer had no intention of destroying the bodies, and the crime scene was preserved very intact. As long as the data is obtained from the deceased's mobile phone, it is very likely that the purpose of their going to the mountains can be known.
The real difficulty lies in how to determine the identity of the murderer and then arrest him.
Many police officers were busy looking for clues near the car, and Miss Junsha was eager to transport the body back, so Lu Yi did not inspect the scene carefully. But according to his impression of the environment inside the car, there were too few clues to identify the murderer.
Perhaps, this case requires us to first figure out the secret of the "location of the deceased" before we can figure out the murderer's method of committing the crime.
Because according to conventional logic, assuming the murderer stabbed the driver's chest first, how could the guy in the back seat not struggle and just sit there quietly waiting to die?
And if the two died at the same time, how could the murderer use one thigh to penetrate the steel plate of the car and kill the deceased in the back seat?
You know, there was no obvious hole or damage in the car, even the front windshield was intact. How did the murderer insert his thigh into their chests?
With many questions in mind, Lu Yi conducted in-depth investigations while waiting for Miss Junsha's message.
About two hours later, he finally received a call from the latter.
"Hello? Lu Yi, where are you?"
"I'm on the plains near Qiuye Town. There are several farmers here collecting volcanic ash."
"Don't worry about the volcanic ash for now, come to the Alliance Building in Caiyou City! The autopsy results are out!"
"Okay, I'll be there right away!"
……
Caiyou City, the headquarters of the Hoenn Alliance.
When Lu Yi arrived here, Miss Junsha was sitting in the conference room with a serious face, listening to the inspectors report various details of the body.
"You're here! Come and sit down!"
When Junsha saw Lu Yi, she immediately signaled the police officer next to her to guide him to his seat. She turned to the inspection team and said, "This is Brother Lu Yi, a professional detective and a young expert I invited to participate in the investigation of this case. Please organize the content of your report and let him listen to it."
"Yes!"
The members of the inspection team saluted, and then the oldest uncle spoke: "Both deceased died of penetrating wounds. Except for the part where the leg bones were pierced, there were no other scars on their bodies.
Because the two bodies were left in the wild for a long time, the temperature had not yet dropped completely in the season, and the environment in the car was relatively closed, the bodies were severely decomposed.
In particular, the wounds of the two deceased were completely exposed to the oxygen environment, and were the first to oxidize and rot, making it very difficult to conduct examinations now.
However, the chest cavity is a relatively hard part of the human body, and the murder weapon used by the murderer is made of the same bones as the victim’s chest cavity—both are human bones. So we specifically examined the bone damage.
The final result surprised us greatly. The tips of the two 'murder weapon thighs' were not severely worn, but the chest bones of the two victims were obviously broken to varying degrees.
This situation is unreasonable. Even if the two deceased were both very old and had soft bones, the wear and tear of their bones should not be so different. According to feedback from another group of investigators, the two deceased were middle-aged men around 40 years old, and their bones could not be so poor. "
The uncle from the testing team said this and looked at Lu Yi seriously.
The latter blinked: "So what is your conclusion...?"
"We can't come to a conclusion yet. We can only guess at the moment." The uncle told the truth.
"There are two special situations that may cause such scars."
"The first possibility is that the weapon the murderer originally used to pierce the victim's body was not human bone. It might have been a sharpened steel pipe or something else. In any case, he first destroyed the victim's bones, and then inserted the leg bone with very delicate operations.
In other words, the way he pulled the steel pipe out was the same as the way he inserted the leg bone. There was no error at all.”
"It doesn't sound very realistic. Unless it is operated by a Pokémon with 'particularly' strong mental power, even ordinary Psychic Pokémon can't be so meticulous." Lu Yi analyzed with a frown.
"That's right." The uncle nodded and continued to elaborate on the second inference.
"Another special case is generally recognized by our testing team."
"That is, before the two victims were killed, their bodies were [frozen], and the environment was [extremely low temperature]."
