Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 215 Entering the Mountain
In the silent dissection room, Luo Rui stared blankly at the things soaked in the solution.

Han Jinli calmed down and explained, "I'm sorry, I made a slip of the tongue. The embryo is only two months old and has not yet formed a human form. It is only the size of a grape and 22 millimeters long, but its organs have already begun to grow."

Luo Rui gritted his teeth and asked, "How long has Wang Jialing been pregnant?"

"More than two months, less than three months."

Han Jinli handed the file board in her hand to Luo Rui, on which was Wang Jialing's identity information.

Her hometown is Shahe County, which means that if there had been no accident on the train, she would have returned home safely with her children.

But she was killed on the way, along with the baby in her belly, leaving two lives!
Fang Yonghui had just returned to the autopsy room. When he saw what was in the glass jar, his face turned pale and he ran out to vomit.

Luo Rui asked: "Have Wang Jialing's family members arrived?"

Han Jinli nodded: "Her parents, sister, and brother-in-law are all here. She was still here during the autopsy."

As soon as she finished speaking, a woman appeared in the corridor.

Fang Yonghui, who was holding the trash can, raised his head and looked at the woman.

Suddenly, he felt a chill down his spine and his face turned pale.

"what!"

Fang Yonghui screamed in shock. The 1.9-meter-tall man was so frightened that he squatted on the ground. Then he got up and backed away repeatedly.

Luo Rui frowned, looked out through the glass window, and was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped and his hair stood on end.

Han Jinli pursed her lips and said, "That's her, Wang Jialing's biological sister."

Luo Rui blinked hard, because the woman standing in the corridor was exactly the same as Wang Jialing on the dissection table, even the teardrop mole under the corner of her eye was the same.

Luo Rui was in a trance for a moment. He glanced at the face of the corpse and then looked at the woman outside.

Han Jinli said: "They are twin sisters, the younger sister is called Wang Jiarong."

Luo Rui frowned and asked, "Are you sure that the person on the dissection table is the real Wang Jialing?"

Han Jinli choked: "Don't scare me, there is no way such a thing can happen!"

……

Ten minutes later, in the reception room of the funeral home.

Luo Rui looked at the woman in front of him and still felt dazed.

The two people are so similar that if you don't understand the sisters' personalities and have not lived together, it would be difficult to tell them apart as twins.

Luo Rui asked: "When did your sister get divorced?"

Wang Jiarong wiped the tears from his face with the back of his hand and replied, "Three months ago."

Luo Rui calculated in his mind, but he couldn't rely on guessing, so he asked directly: "Do you have a divorce certificate?"

"Yes." She took out an ID card from her handbag and handed it to Luo Rui.

"We found it in my sister's bag after she was murdered."

Luo Rui opened the certificate and took a look. The divorce date was indeed three months ago. The ex-husband was called Duan Quan, from Dicheng, and the seal was from the Civil Affairs Bureau of Dicheng.

"My sister came back with the child this time, but I didn't expect something like this to happen..." Wang Jiarong said, and started crying again.

Luo Rui took out his cell phone, took a photo, and then returned the divorce certificate to the other party.

"Excuse me, do you know the reason for their divorce?"

Wang Jiarong raised his head and sniffed.

"My brother-in-law cheated on me. My sister couldn't stand it and had a fight with him for a long time. She made up her mind to divorce him, so she took the children back to her hometown."

“Why didn’t she come back directly after the divorce?”

"My brother-in-law wouldn't let my sister take the child away, so it took three months."

Luo Rui stared at her: "Then do you know that your sister is pregnant?"

Speaking of this, Wang Jiarong burst into tears again and nodded, "I know, this is just my sister wanting to give my brother-in-law a chance, for the sake of the child, to let him break up with the mistress, but my brother-in-law is stubborn..."

"Have you informed Duan Quan about your sister's death?"

"I just called him. He's flying here early tomorrow morning."

Luo Rui nodded: "When he arrives, please notify the police. Please write down my phone number..."

"Row."

Wang Jiarong took out his cell phone and added the number to his address book.

At this time, the glass door of the reception room was pushed open, and several people walked in with a little boy.

Luo Rui could smell the smoke on them, so it should be this family that had burned paper in the funeral home before.

The little boy's face was red, his eyes were dull, and there were slight abrasions on his face.

These are Wang Jialing’s family. When her parents saw that Luo Rui was a police officer who came to inquire, they almost knelt down in front of him and begged him to catch the murderer who killed their eldest daughter.

Luo Rui quickly helped them up, and before leaving, he touched the little boy's face.

The little boy had no expression on his face and looked dazed.

Luo Rui pushed open the glass door and just as he walked out, he looked back and saw the little boy opening his arms to Wang Jiarong and shouting in an unclear voice, "Mom, hug me."

……

County Bureau, eleven o'clock at night.

Because a large-scale manhunt would be launched in the mountains near Baoshan Tunnel tomorrow, and in order to maintain sufficient physical strength for tomorrow, everyone was allowed to leave work and go back to sleep.

Detectives are also human beings. If they are treated like beasts of burden, their bodies will not be able to bear it.

But several responsible persons have not left yet, including Lu Peng and Yao Quan from Pingyang County.

When Luo Rui walked into the conference room, a group of people were pointing at the map on the big screen, and some places had been circled.

He Bing's team has returned. He sat in front of the conference table, looking dejected and tired.

More than ten hours have passed since morning, and He Bing has not caught anyone.

Lu Kangming had an angry look on his face. After seeing Luo Rui, he nodded slightly and said to everyone, "The identities of the three criminals have been investigated clearly."

As he spoke, photos of three people appeared on the big screen.

Zhong Daming, from Linjiang City, 51 years old, construction worker.

Zhong Shuai, a 28-year-old from Linjiang City, is also a construction worker.

The third photo is of a slightly handsome young man named Ding Zuo, 26 years old.

Lu Kangming said: "Zhong Daming and Zhong Shuai are uncle and nephew, Ding Zuo and Zhong Shuai were classmates in junior high school, and he has a criminal record of hurting people.

A month ago, the three of them were working in Imperial City, and they were working for the victim Wu Zihui’s construction team.”

"The 200,000 yuan in cash that Wu Zihui carried was the workers' wages, and he absconded with the money back to his hometown. Zhong Daming and his men had not received wages for half a year, so our initial guess is that they must have figured out Wu Zihui's route, followed him on the train, and robbed him of the 200,000 yuan in cash."

Hearing this, Luo Rui opened his mouth, but two more photos appeared on the screen.

One is a photo frame with no one in it, and the other is a photo of a female flight attendant.

Lu Kangming: "The attendant's name is Guan Xia. We have learned from the Railway Bureau that she is a contract worker and has worked on K301 for more than a year. She and Ding Zuo are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship..."

Lu Peng frowned and asked, "Is she a traitor?"

Lu Kangming's eyes were a little impatient, meaning that I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you interrupting? He continued: "The train tickets for the three criminals were all bought by Guan Xia.

And through our investigation, we found that the three criminals did not carry controlled knives and pistols when they got on the car, which means that these things were most likely prepared by Guan Xia for them. "

Yao Quan was puzzled and asked, "Killing to silence the witness? Not really. It's only a matter of time before their identities are exposed. Why did they kill their accomplice instead of running away together? Did they think she was a burden?"

Lu Kangming glanced at him and said, "This is still unclear."

Seeing that his leader was too tired, Li Nong took over the speaking position considerately, and the map of the area around Baoshan Tunnel appeared on the big screen again.

He turned on the laser pointer in his hand and pointed it at the map.

"This gang of criminals is very familiar with the Baoshan Tunnel. Our people brought police dogs to track them and found that they had entered the mountain south of the tunnel. This mountain is called Fengya Mountain. It will take at least two days to get out. On the other side of the mountain is Pingyang County."

There is no need for much explanation. Everyone present knows Fengya Mountain. Not only is it steep, but it also has many rare animals and plants.

In the past few years, before the large-scale confiscation of rural homemade guns, many hunters hunted in this forest, with wild boars being the most common.

There have been many casualties in the past, as hunters mistook villagers lying in the mud collecting herbs for wild animals and shot them to death.

Some of the injuries were not very serious and could have survived if they had been sent down the mountain for treatment in time. However, because the mountain roads were rugged and there were no roads, hunters and herbalists had to walk up the mountain, leaving the injured to fend for themselves.

Zheng Rong also told Luo Rui about these things when he was a local police officer.

The murderers in Shahe County and Pingyang County all hide in these mountains, which indeed increases the difficulty of arresting them.

When Lu Kangming and Lu Peng heard the name of this mountain, their foreheads were filled with black lines.

Although everyone's expressions were ugly, everyone had their own ways to deal with it.

"Oh, we have to borrow another police dog!" Lu Peng shook his head irritably.

Shahe County has a total of three police dogs, which is considered relatively wealthy. Pingyang County has only one half-grown police dog, and it has only been trained recently.

Lu Peng may not know how many criminal police there are in the sister units, but he knows exactly how many police dogs there are.

Police dogs are more valuable than humans, and their food is better than humans.

Li Nong pointed a laser pointer at the empty photo frame and said, "When we were tracking, we found the footprints of a fourth person..."

Another photo of footprints appeared on the big screen. The background was on a slope and the marks were very deep.

"This set of footprints is ahead of the other three people, and has always been ahead. It is very likely that they are their contact, the one who leads the way. From the direction they are heading, we infer that this person is very familiar with Fengya Mountain. He is very likely a hunter, or someone who often goes up the mountain to collect herbs."

"After analyzing the footprints, the technical department concluded that the man was between 110 and 120 meters tall, over years old, weighed between and kilograms, and was quite thin. My colleagues are investigating the man's identity."

After Li Nong finished speaking, Luo Rui quickly raised his hand and told everyone what he had discovered at the funeral home. The second victim was pregnant, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

The criminal police have seen too many things like this. They just sighed a little, cursed the criminals, and their emotions returned to normal.

But after Luo Rui expressed his doubts, Pingyang County didn't care at all.

Li Nong muttered, "I think Luo Rui's problem should be taken seriously. The criminals' target is Wu Zihui, so there is no need to kill Wang Jialing.

And judging from the identities of these people, except for Ding Zuo who has a criminal record, the other two have clean backgrounds. It really doesn't make sense to attack an innocent person."

Yao Quan glanced at Luo Rui, and then said: "What's wrong with this? They even dared to kill their accomplice Guan Xia. They will definitely not be soft-hearted when killing an innocent person."

Lu Kangming glared at him, then asked Luo Rui kindly, "Do you mean that besides Wu Zihui being the target of these criminals, Wang Jialing is also one?"

Luo Rui didn't dare to say it so absolutely, he just murmured: "I think Wang Jialing's death is very suspicious."

After saying this, a sneer came from the side.

The voice did not come from Pingyang County Bureau, but from He Bing.

Lu Kangming was so angry that his eyes were blazing with fire. He had originally hoped that He Bing could capture the three criminals in one fell swoop. Even if he couldn't catch all three, catching one would be fine. But he didn't expect that this guy didn't even see the shadow of the criminals.

The group was not as strong as Xiaomu from the police dog squadron. It was Xiaomu who had been tracking the remaining scent of the criminals and was able to lock down their whereabouts.

Lu Kangming glared at him fiercely, and He Bing quickly shut up and turned his head away.

Lu Kangming said: "Let's not dwell on this matter now. Our current focus is to do our best to capture this group of people. Once we catch them and pry open their mouths, the truth will be revealed."

……

The next day, at the Shahe County Bureau, hundreds of people including police officers from the police station, traffic police, public security brigade, special police squadron, and police dog squadron stood in the yard of the county bureau.

Lu Kangming was the commander himself. He straightened his trouser waist, made a long opening speech, and then waved his hand. Hundreds of people got into the police cars one after another and drove to Baoshan Town under the Baoshan Tunnel.

As for the people from Pingyang County Bureau, they prepared to search the mountain from the other end of Fengya Mountain. Because the other party could not borrow a police dog, they organized more people, mobilizing thousands of people, and entered the mountain in a dragnet-like manner.

Luo Rui's team seven, still driving two crappy vans, followed Lu Kangming's convoy unsteadily.

The driver was the veteran detective, Qi Lei.

He smacked his lips and complained, "The last time I went into the mountains was a few years ago. I had to rest for at least a week before I could recover."

This is the first time Fang Yonghui has participated in such a large-scale arrest operation since he joined the police force. The last time Gu Zhiliang was arrested, he only followed Luo Rui in the investigation for a few days and was not allowed to participate in subsequent operations.

He looked excited: "Why should I be depressed? If I can catch him, I will have made a great contribution."

Qi Lei snorted, "You make it sound easy. Let me tell you, we were trying to catch a fugitive last time. This guy dismembered his wife, and when her family found out something was wrong and called the police, he fled to Fengya Mountain and prepared supplies in advance.

We guarded the outskirts of Fengya Mountain for a week. There were more than a dozen people in our team. Some had lumps on their faces from mosquito bites, some were almost bitten by poisonous snakes when they were taking a shit, some were stung by bees and chased by wild boars. The most unlucky one was Captain He. When he was sleeping against a tree trunk, he opened his mouth and snored, and a pile of bird shit fell into his mouth. He was too sleepy at the time and couldn't wake up. He smacked his lips and swallowed the bird shit.

So don’t think that being a criminal policeman is glamorous. It’s just like being an ox or a horse, and you don’t get any good treatment.

You saw it, Captain He and his team worked hard for more than ten hours yesterday, but got nothing. The look on Li Da and Director Lu's face... Tsk tsk, they wanted to eat him. And, you're not welcomed by your wife and children when you go home. They despise your smelly feet, your bad breath, and your fat waist. Damn, you have to pay taxes on a set time, 1st, 3rd, 5th, 2nd, 4th, 6th, you choose."

Qi Lei spoke a lot of words inspired by his words.

Fang Yonghui frowned as he listened and felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

Yang Bo, who was sitting in the back row, was not affected. He still remembered the third-class merit he won with Luo Rui.

During the previous mobilization, he saw Peng Jie, and he couldn't tell how much this kid envied him. Although it was hard to be able to join the criminal investigation team, youth was his asset. If he could hold on at this stage and make some achievements, his life would be easier.

He said, "I just heard from Team 1 that Director Lu and Li Dayi heard that Pingyang County had dispatched more than a thousand people, so they quickly transferred people from other units. This time, Shahe County is bound to compete with Pingyang County."

Qi Lei curled his lips and said, "How should I put it? If we talk about superiority or inferiority, our Shahe County is not as good as theirs. Of course, our police dogs are better than theirs, but that's the only advantage."

His words were vague. There was no point in talking more about the affairs of his own unit. Moreover, he didn't know the details of his new partners and was afraid of letting the cat out of the bag and having someone expose it.

Fang Yonghui dry-heaved twice. The van was going very fast and had already left the county. The road was bumpy and everyone's stomach was feeling a little uncomfortable.

He swallowed his saliva. "You mean Li Da is not as good as Yao Quan."

Qi Lei's face darkened and he stepped on the brakes: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not, I didn't!"

Fang Yonghui hit his head against the back of the chair and cried out in pain.

Yang Bo laughed and said, "Yao Quan is nothing..."

He originally wanted to flatter Luo Rui, but when he saw that the other party was staring out the window in a daze, he had to swallow his flattering words.

Baoshan Town is just below the Baoshan Tunnel, and to the east is the slowly flowing Shahe River.

The town is not big, with only four main roads crossing each other.

People from the local police station had been waiting at the intersection for a long time. They were used to seeing so many people.

Time was running out and the task was urgent, so everyone didn't hesitate and led their teams into the mountains.

Since the car couldn't go in, they had to walk. The police station found more than a dozen mules and horses, carrying drinking water, instant noodles, toilet paper, medicine boxes, etc.

Yang Bo followed Luo Rui and pushed him: "Captain Luo, isn't this the Yunnan horse in our institute?"

Luo Rui took a look at the herd of horses and found that it was indeed a horse that had been sent to a judicial auction. He didn't expect to see it here.

Yang Bo ran over and gently touched the Dian horse's neck.

The police officer at the police station saw this and asked: "Do you know him?"

Yang Bo nodded: "I took care of it for several months."

"Okay then." The other party handed him the reins and said, "This horse is quite stubborn. I'll leave it to you."

Yang Bo led the Dian horses back to Team 7 and followed Luo Rui.

An hour later, they arrived at the Baoshan Tunnel, where the criminals jumped out of the car.

He Bing started tracking from here yesterday. There were gravels on both sides of the tracks. On the south side of the tracks, there were several branches inserted, forming a circle and surrounded by red lines.

Luo Rui walked closer and found that the area surrounded by the footprints was left by the criminal when he jumped out of the car.

However, the footprints have been extracted and photographed.

On the right is the pitch-black Baoshan Tunnel. At first glance, there is no light inside and the end is not visible.

It is seven kilometers long, and Pingyang County is at the other end.

Looking towards the vast mountains in the south, everyone frowned. The difficult search began from here.

Luo Rui's team seven followed the main force and walked to the outskirts of Fengya Mountain. It was already noon.

Fortunately, the weather at the end of September was not very hot, otherwise, I would have collapsed from exhaustion.

After a brief rest, the large group began to separate and enter the mountains from different directions.

Luo Rui's Team 7 began searching from the southeast. This was not the route the criminals took to enter the mountain, but judging from their behavior, they were likely to be fighting a protracted war in the mountains. It was estimated that the contact had already prepared the supplies and hid in there for several months, waiting for the police to compromise before coming out and escaping into the city.

Until four o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Rui and others were still wandering around the outskirts of Fengya Mountain.

The speed of movement is simply not fast enough. Along the way, you have to judge whether there are any traces left by the criminals, the most important of which are footprints.

There are many footprints on the periphery, some are left by herbalists and some are left by hunters.

They need an expert who understands footprints to take a look. Luo Rui is half an expert, so their team can only rely on him.

If there is a police dog, that would be best, at least there is a clear direction and the movement speed can be faster.

Previously, Fang Yonghui and Yang Bo, who were very enthusiastic, also started to look miserable.

Qi Lei was right. He was exhausted as a grandson, and there was no clue about the criminals.

Team Seven is made up of young people. Although they are all energetic, they are also prone to complaining.

Only Qi Lei was nonchalant, with a calm face, like an old ox plowing the fields, who had long been accustomed to it.

Fang Yonghui leaned on his trekking pole, took a sip of water, and asked, "Captain Luo, do you think this group of people have already left the mountain?"

Luo Rui just finished looking at a set of footprints and looked up and said, "It shouldn't be. At least they won't come down the mountain from our side."

Qi Lei continued, "Don't worry about this. The leaders won't make such a low-level mistake."

Fang Yonghui looked towards the mountain: "Where would these bastards hide? They are amazing!"

Yang Bo also complained: "It's almost dark, it better not rain, that would be really terrible."

Luo Rui didn't say anything. He took out mineral water, poured it into an empty instant noodle box, and gave it to Dian Ma to drink.

The horse's nose rubbed gently against the back of Luo Rui's hand, appearing very intimate.

After a short rest, the group continued on their journey.

The clouds in the sky kept rolling, and the evening wind blew through the trees, making a rustling sound.

As it was getting dark, everyone's cell phone signal lost and their physical strength was almost exhausted.

The people of Team Seven rested on the spot, leaning against the rocks, in silence.

Everyone was chewing bread, with a look of despair on their faces.

Luo Rui was also helpless. He wanted to boost everyone's confidence, but after thinking about it, he decided not to disturb everyone's rest. He just took out the chocolate and canned beef he had prepared in advance and distributed them to everyone.

Sleep? It's impossible to sleep!

At night, a search of more than 2,000 people would surely alert the criminals as long as countless flashlights were turned on.

What we want is to let them know that the police have formed a search team and are going into the mountains to arrest people.

It has never been said that we must find their hideout in these vast mountains.

The best way is to scare the four people out and make them flee in panic. This is the opportunity to catch them.

To catch rabbits, it is best to scare them and then guard the mouth of the bag...
