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

Chapter 48 Under the Pigsty! [Please continue reading!]

"Yes!"

Liu Jin accepted the order and immediately turned and hurried outside.

There aren't many pig farms near the market, so he split the squad into groups of three, estimating that it would only take a few hours to verify whether his inference was correct.

The few people who remained in the office.
"What are you doing"

Yang Ruoxi stared at Xu Liang in disbelief.

She vaguely sensed what Xu Liang was doing.
Can lawyers earn extra income outside of their profession?
Isn't what the other party is doing the work of a criminal police officer?!

That's so unlawful!
"That's so typical of lawyers. What kind of lawyer are you if you can't investigate?!" Xu Liang retorted seriously.

This. Is this right?
Yang Ruoxi was filled with questions.

Before she could ask any more questions...

Xu Liang then turned to Chen Changchun, demonstrating his professional ethics of doing things for money.

"It is difficult to determine the nature of the case at present."

“Murder, accidental death, or crime of passion are all possibilities.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Changchun frowned.

This is no different from what he thought.

What are the known clues so far?
The killer dismembered a person and then sold the body; there is no other information that can be used to infer anything from this.

What is a fatal injury?
What was the identity of the deceased?
None of these.

But we can guess!
"The suspect wasn't selling the meat for money; could it be that he was trying to destroy the evidence?"

Chen Changchun suddenly asked.

In other words, the suspect wanted to hide the body?
That's possible. After all, disguising it as camel meat and eating it is definitely more reliable than simply hiding a corpse!

Once digested, what else can be detected?

"Possibly, but..."

Xu Liang paused, then suddenly added, "I prefer revenge killings."

“Using the stomach to store a corpse violates the very word ‘store’.”

"Think about it, is it easier for the murderer to discover the body if he buries it, or if he sells it to dozens of people to eat?"

The latter is undoubtedly the better choice.

Most people who use stomachs to store corpses choose to feed the bodies to wild dogs or other animals.

But selling them to people is extremely rare.

If it's for money or to satisfy certain fetishes, that's fine.

However, the fact that the murderer set the price at 1 yuan, and that the pork stall owner readily agreed to buy the pork and then left, negates the options of fetish and money.

It was neither murder nor did it resemble hiding a body.
That leaves only accidental death and revenge killing!
Compared to the details of the case, the probability of a revenge killing is significantly higher, at the very least the cause of death is related to hatred.

"Of course, it's also possible that the suspect is mentally unstable and, given that there are pigs around, insists on having people eat them."

Xu Liang spread his hands.

If that's the case, then there's nothing he can do, since even the smartest person can hardly guard against a fool.

But if it's a revenge killing
"As mentioned before, the generation of hatred must involve a perpetrator and a victim."

Chen Changchun frowned.

He began to consider the possibility of a revenge killing.

"If the deceased died because of a feud, what was the hatred between him and the murderer, and who was the perpetrator?"

This case is absolutely horrific.
On his way back to the police station, Du Tao was in an uproar after the case was reported to the city bureau.

Cannibalism case!

Putting everything else aside, just the announcement after solving a case—believe me, it spreads across the entire country instantly!?

Two and a half months ago, Hanhai City had already become famous because of the case.

Now another one like this is happening.
Du Tao now wishes he could eat nitroglycerin pills like they were food!

From this perspective, it is enough to demonstrate how much of a sensation the suspect's actions could cause.

"How much hatred must there be to do this?"

Chen Changchun muttered to himself.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruoxi and Xu Liang began to ponder, while Wang Chao glanced at the three of them and also pretended to be thinking.

until
"Could it be a projection effect?"

Xu Liang suddenly spoke up.

After saying that, Xu Liang took good care of Wang Chao.

"Simply put, the projection effect is a kind of retaliatory psychology, which completely replicates the harm one has suffered onto another person."

"This usually manifests as, for example, if I get slapped, I'll want someone else to get slapped too."

But applying this to the case...
"You mean, the deceased might have done something similar to the suspect?"

Yang Ruoxi understood. Although she and Wang Chao were twins from the same mother, their intelligence levels were still somewhat different.

"Did the deceased do anything to the suspect that resembled dismemberment for sale?"

Did the deceased sell some of the suspect's valuable items, such as the bodies of family members?

That doesn't make sense either.
Based on previous inferences, the deceased should have been a pig farmer.

Pig farmers naturally have to sell pigs, and the other party must have sold things many times. It's impossible that the suspect considered the pigs to be his precious possessions.

The probability is rather small. But what if it has nothing to do with pigs?
What did the deceased sell that could have provoked such anger from the other party?
In comparison, the things you sell aren't thrown away; you can just buy them back.
Just as everyone was deep in thought.

In a trance.

A telephone rang.

"Dududu~!"

Chen Changchun took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID: Liu Jin from the Serious Crimes Unit.
这 是
Any clues?

Chen Changchun quickly dialed the number, and the next second, a voice came from the speaker.

"Captain Chen, we've found the murder scene!"

Have they found the scene?
Based on the previous deductions, does that mean we can also confirm the deceased's identity?
Chen Changchun's expression changed.

"So fast?"

As soon as those three words were spoken, Liu Jin on the other end of the phone suddenly spat out a curse:

"Oh shit."

"That bastard didn't even try to hide the fact that this place is covered in blood!!!"

Upon hearing this, the people present exchanged glances.

"Where is the address?"

"Yangtong Town Dam!"

Yangtong Town is a small town located in a remote corner of Hongfu District.

There is a small dam here, located on the edge of the town. There are no normal residents within a few hundred meters, only a few aquaculture farms.

The area is blocked by a dense forest.

7 p.m.

When Chen Changchun arrived at the murder scene, a stench immediately hit him!

This is a pig farm, not very big, with only about a dozen pigs.

However, even a dozen or so pigs must be kept away from residential areas according to regulations, so the farm is built near a dam, but it's different from a typical pig farm.
At this moment, a strong, fishy stench was brewing inside the pig farm!

"Squeak~"

Chen Changchun pushed open the door to the small pig farm.

In an instant, a large amount of scarlet blood appeared before my eyes, and flies seemed to be swarming around the feast, constantly flapping their wings in celebration.

Through the darkness, the brown unidentified object on the ground could still be vaguely seen in the yard, most likely minced meat!

Liu Jin had already led his men to investigate the crime scene.

See this scene.

Wang Chao looked a bit strange, but Xu Liang seemed fine.

Yang Ruoxi voluntarily stayed at the police station, and Xu Liang had no idea what she was up to.

"How's the situation on site?" Chen Changchun asked Liu Jin in a deep voice.

Liu Jin replied, "The tricycle in the surveillance footage has been found. The murder weapon was probably the shredder at the scene. The police extracted a lot of scraps of flesh from it."

"Based on preliminary assessments, this is where the victim was murdered and killed."

Hear the words.

Chen Changchun frowned, his eyes fixed on the scene, and no one knew what he was thinking.

at the same time.

At the pigsty.

"vomit!"

After being fuming for a while, Wang Chao finally couldn't take it anymore and vomited right next to the pigsty.

Several sleeping pigs were startled awake and scurried away into a corner, grunting softly.

"Tsk, if you're feeling unwell, just say so. What's wrong with you?"

Xu Liang teased the other person, casually patting him on the back.

Wang Chao was about to say something when, unexpectedly, another torrent of words gushed out from his mouth.

"vomit!"

It took him a long time to feel better.

"This smell is awful!" he said, his face contorted with rage.

Xu Liang smiled and didn't pay any attention.

The smell at the scene was indeed awful; an ordinary person might faint if they stayed there for too long.

He was about to offer some words of comfort.

In a daze.
Xu Liang suddenly froze. He glanced over and saw that the pile of vomit that Wang Chao had just left was now slowly disappearing.

Was it absorbed by the soil?

No, pigsties should be made of cement.

He paused, then squatted down and squinted at it.

Yoshihisa
Chen Changchun, who was discussing the case with Liu Jin, was at the height of his deliberations when...
A voice suddenly rang out beside my ear!

There's a door under the pigsty!!!
