Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 177 Xu Liang's Shock! [A Long Chapter of 4,000 Words!]

Steel. Steel products
Radioactive contaminated steel!
Damn it, during the smelting of scrap steel, radioactive steel contaminated with an industrial radioactive source (cobalt-60) was mixed in!!!
At a speed of 246 microsieverts per hour, prolonged exposure will inevitably lead to illnesses such as leukemia. In fact, even if it's just ordinary leukemia, it would be considered extremely fortunate.
This thing is a deadly weapon; if you stay in it for even a little while, you could be killed instantly!

If it were only Sunshine Primary School, that would be fine.

The number of people affected can be limited to a single point.

"110,000 tons"

Xu Liang stared intently at the data in his hand, feeling his head buzzing.

The radioactively contaminated steel was sold by Luo Jun.
Xu Liang had considered that Jinyang Steel Plant might be hiding problems even more serious than environmental pollution and the illegal discharge of untreated wastewater.

But he really didn't expect it.
How dare they be so audacious!

Luo Jun really values ​​money over life; he's willing to pay money to get rid of something that others would otherwise have to sell, yet this other party won't even buy it at a low price!
Perhaps it's not an acquisition.

Rather, the seller was eager to get rid of this hot potato and might have even paid Luo Jun to help them deal with it.

The so-called low-price acquisition is most likely just to make the accounts look good.

"Steel with added industrial radioactive source (cobalt-60) is made into rebar and distributed to various markets."

Xu Liang murmured to himself, and when he came to his senses, he instantly got goosebumps all over his body.

"This madman!!!"

He dared not even imagine how many people would be affected by the Jinyang Steel Plant.

I dare not even imagine how big a sensation this would cause if it were to be exposed.

No.

It might not be sensational.

It's an earthquake!!!
Wang Chao, standing beside him, was also deeply shaken as he looked at the document.

Although he didn't consider everything as comprehensively as Xu Liang, he still understood the meaning of the words "radioactive contaminated scrap steel"!
"Brother Liangliang, what do we do?"

Wang Chao swallowed hard, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Xu Liang.

"This case is beyond our control."

To tell the truth.

When he asked for leave from the police station, he really was just looking forward to traveling to another city.

After all, Xu Liang was his half-brother; would his own brother lie to him?

I really had a lot of fun after coming to Sunzhou.

Attending banquets, sneaking into funeral homes, digging up graves and exhuming corpses, stealing corpses and cars, and conducting autopsies in remote mountains.
But he really didn't expect it to be so exciting!

"How many people will be affected?" Wang Chao said with lingering fear.

"do not know."

Xu Liang gradually calmed down at this point.

He stared intently at the documents in his hands, desperately trying to suppress the trembling caused by his adrenaline.

"What do we do?" Wang Chao asked in a low voice.

Xu Liang remained silent.

He took a cigarette out of his pocket.

"Snapped!"

The lighter flame emerged, scorching the tobacco, and Xu Liang took a drag.

As his chest rose and fell, a large amount of nicotine was inhaled into his lungs, and his anxious emotions were gradually suppressed.

Xu Liang looked at the sky gradually turning white.

He looked down again, staring at the corpse on the ground and the documents in his hand.

Now that the case has progressed this far, there's no reason not to continue.

"This is a serious disturbance. We need to investigate it thoroughly before reporting it to the higher authorities."

Xu Liang spoke up.

The safest course of action now is to report all the information to Shangcheng!

However, the risk is quite high. If Jin Bo's investigation turns out to be false, his career will come to an end, and he will then open a restaurant and work as a chef.

Of course, at present, the probability that the evidence is true is very high.

After all, there was no need for Jinbo to die if he were a fake.

But the words have already been spoken.
This is just a probability!
"We need to examine the evidence; we need to verify it!"

Xu Liang's eyes narrowed; he now knew what he had to do.

Investigating the case.

It's simply a matter of presenting and examining evidence!

At present, they have only presented evidence, but have not yet verified it!
"Examination? We're not handing it over?" Wang Chao's eyes widened.

"No need, just do as I say."

Xu Liang immediately rejected the idea.

This case involves a great deal of trouble and a wide range of people. According to regulations, submitted evidence must be reviewed at each level.

But then a problem arises.

Ten thousand tons of radioactively contaminated steel were imported by sea.
To be honest, he still can't figure out how Luo Jun got in here!
One cannot do it well.

"We might become the next Jinbo."

Xu Liang said in a low voice.

The moment he reached the exit, Wang Chao fell silent.

The two looked down at the bones on the ground, which had long since turned to white bones and were being dug up and gnawed on by wild dogs.

They are related.

No matter how strong your connections are, you only have one life.

Think of this.

Xu Liang's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he glanced around warily.

Right now, the sky is beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

"Don't stay here for long!"

"Chaozi, dig out the body and take it with you. I'm going to the ruined temple to collect samples."

Xu Liang made up his mind and began to make arrangements.

After saying this, he took some photos of the scene and immediately returned to the dilapidated temple.

Wang Chao, looking at the corpse buried deep on the ground, smacked his lips and then began to painstakingly dig with a piece of dead wood as a shovel.

When Xu Liang returned from sampling, he picked up his camera and snapped a picture of the scene.

then
"Wow~!"

The decaying, white bones were swept away by the clothes.

The two walked down the barren mountain at an extremely fast pace, and soon their figures disappeared.
3 month 11 day.

It was nine o'clock in the morning.

A car suddenly stopped in front of the Sunzhou Punk Forensic Science and Authentication Center.

Exhausted, Xu Liang and Wang Chao got out of the car from either side and quickly entered the appraisal agency.

Just as I entered, I ran into someone who had just started work.

"Oh, Mr. Xu, it's you again?"

The head of the organization was taken aback, and looked Xu Liang up and down again, a look of hesitation on his face.

"You..."

To be honest, the person in charge always suspected that Xu Liang was a tomb raider, or at the very least, someone who dug up wild graves to find burial goods.

This doesn't mean the other person has that kind of temperament.

It's simply judging people by their appearance!
Who is this kind-hearted person who goes to the forensic appraisal institution three or four times a day, and each time brings a bunch of rotting corpses?!
Not to mention, they arrived covered in mud!
Did he really think he didn't see the hoe and shovel when he was moving the body?
Think of this.

The person in charge couldn't hold back any longer; his scalp tingled, and he cautiously probed with a question.

"You really didn't go tomb raiding?"

"What?" Xu Liang was taken aback, and his words were interrupted.

"nothing."

The person in charge realized he had misspoke and quickly steered the conversation back to the main topic.

"By the way, Mr. Xu, you came here today because of the body from last night, right?"

"We worked overtime last night to finish it!"

While talking.

The person in charge walked to the front desk of the organization and opened a locked cabinet.

A pile of documents suddenly appeared inside. He glanced through them briefly, then pulled one out and stood up to face Xu Liang.

"Here's the autopsy report, please take a look."

Xu Liang paused, swallowed what he was about to say, and took the document to begin reading.

I'm afraid he won't understand.

The person in charge explained from the side: "According to the test report, the body contained a large amount of heavy metals, and various organs were severely damaged."

"Among them, the lungs and heart have already suffered from organ strain."

"And death is sudden cardiac death caused by excessive stimulation in a short period of time."

This is Sun Jin's autopsy report.

Wang Chao carried the body here overnight, and the organization conducted an autopsy without excessive examination.

The test report showed that, like Zhao Shui's child and even the other corpses, the bodies contained a large amount of heavy metal elements!

In the past...

Xu Liang might try to push the case forward further and put this evidence in court.

However, after a trip to the desolate mountains, they found a batch of new clues.
Xu Liang would not think that way.

Where do the children near Huangyan Village go to school?

Xu Liang looked at the report and suddenly asked a question.

Huang Yancun? A child?

The person in charge was taken aback, thought for a moment, and then answered:
"Sunshine Primary School".

“Sunzhou is not big; everyone in Huangyan Village goes to school there.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Chao's eyelids twitched, and he immediately understood what Xu Liang meant.

Jin Bo's clues mentioned this school.

The reason the other party was able to investigate further was because they suspected his unusual physical condition was not caused by groundwater, but rather...
School buildings!

At present, Sun Jin was studying at school before her death.
All of a sudden.

Wang Chao's pupils suddenly contracted.

He suddenly understood why Luo Jun had stolen the corpse and burned it!

Perhaps there's another culprit behind Sun Jin's organ failure!

"Do it again, this corpse is unusual."

Xu Liang returned the report and stared intently at the person in charge.

Unusual?
The person in charge was taken aback, but before he could speak, Xu Liang continued:

Heavy metals are not the only things that can cause organ failure in humans.

If.

There's something wrong with Sunshine Elementary School; that batch of steel was used to build the school.
The cause of organ failure is most likely not heavy metals, but that batch of steel!

Can this be found?
It can be checked!

But we need to investigate further!
"Investigate what?" The person in charge was completely bewildered, not understanding what the other party was talking about.

“Cobalt-60!” Xu Liang suddenly exclaimed.

The person in charge immediately jumped up as if pricked by a needle.

"Investigate what?!" he asked, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"don’t worry."

Xu Liang spoke up.

"Before he died, this child went to a nuclear power plant while traveling and got lost for a period of time. After returning, he was diagnosed with organ failure."

"So the parents suspect that the problem may be caused by radioactive materials."

Hear the words.

The person in charge finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He decided to believe the other party's explanation; after all, if he didn't, the trouble he would face would be considerable.

As for whether it's still possible to detect the virus given that the death occurred more than a month ago, including the winter break, and the student hadn't been in contact with steel materials at school for two months, the question remains.
The person in charge pondered for a long time.

Finally, he spoke:

"We can try, but I can't guarantee we'll be able to find it."

This requires a highly professional team and equipment to complete, and there's no guarantee that it will be detected.

but.
That was enough for Xu Liang.

"Okay." Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

The source of this corpse was rather unusual, and he was quite afraid of being questioned about it.

But let's keep asking.

The problem isn't too big.

After all, they weren't the ones who stole the corpses; they just stole the corpses that the corpse thieves were stealing. This can be considered a righteous rescue!
"correct."

As he spoke, Xu Liang suddenly thought of something else.

He busied himself taking a pile of wrapped clothes from the trunk of his car outside the institution.

The person in charge watched with great interest.

until
"Wow!"

Xu Liang took off his clothes, revealing a pile of bones and scraps of cloth.

At the same time, they also took samples on site, handing out things that they didn't know if they were useful or not.

Person in charge: ?

"There is another body that needs to be examined by the authorities to determine who the person is."

"Yes, you can just examine the body's DNA."

Xu Liang spoke up.

The person in charge looked at the pile of white bones, slightly opened his mouth, then looked at the other person's dusty clothes, and finally...

He asked again:

"Mr. Xu, are you sure you're not a grave robber?"

This body has been dead for at least four years!
From what obscure corner was it discovered that the other party dug it out?

Is it really legal?
Should I report this to the police or file a police report?

The person in charge was somewhat confused, and his brain was unable to process the information for a short period of time.

"Rest assured, the source of the body is legally designated."

Xu Liang offered a word of comfort.

"My name is Xu Liang, a lawyer from Lanshan Province. I handled several well-known cases a few months ago."

"You can find news articles by searching my name online."

"I swear on my honor that these bodies originated from..."

"It's all legal!"

Upon hearing this, the person in charge remained skeptical, but ultimately accepted the money.

"to make."

He carried the remains towards the laboratory.

Watching the person in charge disappear.

Xu Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief, a wave of fatigue spreading from his bones, making him feel weak.

"What do we do now?"

Wang Chao, on the other hand, was quite energetic and did not feel tired at all. Despite not having slept for a day and a night and having been digging up graves and stealing corpses, he was not tired at all.

Xu Liang fell into deep thought.

at the moment.

The most important thing is to cross-examine the evidence, which is also his primary goal.

Think for a long time.

finally.

His voice slowly rang in my ears.

“Review these messages.”

After a moment's thought, Xu Liang hid Jin Bo and laid out all the information in front of him.

This information is not arranged in order.

In the dilapidated temple, the logical explanations that Xu Liang saw spanned a wide range of dimensions.

It lacks many antecedents, that is, the reasons for the investigation.

For example, Jin Bo initially suspected it was groundwater, but then suddenly denied it and turned his attention to the building, even pointing directly to the steel!
What are the reasons for this?
Why target steel?

Xu Liang didn't know, but Jin Bo, as a lawyer, must understand the consequences of a lack of logical continuity, so he would definitely explain!
However, after writing it, I didn't have time to sort it.
Luo Jun discovered this and subsequently caused his death!
"Let's organize the information first!"

Xu Liang spoke, and the two of them quickly arranged the information in front of them according to his words and the chronological order.

Not long after.

This report is riddled with logical inconsistencies.
He reappeared before the two of them with a serious demeanor!
Xu Liang quickly began reading.

On October 3, 1999, I was commissioned by local residents to come to Yangguang Elementary School to investigate an environmental pollution case.
