As a local policeman, is it appropriate for you to take over the job of a criminal policeman?

"Captain Yu, this area is too large for the entire city. I suggest that we first check the area around Wuming Mountain. I just checked and found that the road to this mountain was only built in the past two years. There was no road before that."

"So the murderer buried him here, most likely because it was relatively close to there, or he knew this mountain. In that case, the probability is higher that he was someone nearby." Ye Lin made some suggestions.

"Okay, let's start with the surrounding villages and towns. Let's divide into groups and start the action."

Yu Haifeng clapped his hands to signal the end of the meeting and everyone took action.

"Linzi, I'll have someone send the skull to the provincial government for 3D restoration to see what can be restored," said Yu Haifeng.

Ye Lin knew that as long as he had a skull, if he repaired it according to a certain proportion, he could restore it to 70% to 80%. As long as he had a shape, it would be convenient to check.

"Okay, I'll take people over there to check for missing persons first."

...

There are many villages and towns around Wuming Mountain, and the population is also large. But the good thing is that because it was not developed enough before, the population mobility was not large seven or eight years ago.

Ye Lin and his team spent two days visiting seven or eight villages and towns, but they did not find any missing persons of the same age.

In this day and age, with mobile phones and surveillance, it is really difficult to go missing.

"Captain Ye, could it be that he is from another place and was killed by chance while passing by here?" Wang Longxin had been working for two days and was a little tired.

"I don't know. If the investigation here yields no results, we can only rely on Captain Yu's reconstruction. Speaking of which, with the advancement of technology, it has become much easier for us to solve cases."

If it were in the past, this kind of restoration would take a long time, but now we have computers and most work computers can handle it, so Yu Haifeng quickly sent the restored portrait.

There are four pictures in total. There is no way around it. People's appearances are somewhat different, so even if they are restored, it does not mean they can be 100% restored.

"Captain Yu has sent us the pictures. Let's ask Qi Shan to print them out and then we can go visit the area again."

"Oh, when all the surveillance cameras are deployed, we can sit in front of the computer and let the computer recognize it. Don't you think it would be great?" Wang Longxin was a little tired and didn't want to move.

"Then why don't you just pay the computer instead of you?" Ye Lin joked and pulled Wang Longxin to continue the visit.

After visiting for a long time, the two were really tired.

"Captain Ye, buy a Coke to refresh yourself." Wang Longxin said, pointing to the convenience store nearby.

There are many such small stores in villages and towns. The cost is not high, the profit is not much, and the main feature is that they are close to home.

"Boss lady, two bottles of Coke and a pack of cigarettes." Wang Longxin started calling out as soon as he entered.

"Get your Coke over there, and the cigarettes are here." The proprietress was a woman in her late 50s. She skillfully took a pack of cigarettes from the shelf behind her.

While Wang Longxin was paying, Ye Lin came over and showed the boss lady four printed pictures. "Boss lady, please help me see if you recognize these people."

The proprietress sat casually on the chair, took the pictures and began to look at them one by one, muttering, "Who are you? Are you looking for someone?"

"Yes, he's looking for someone. Please help take a look." Ye Lin said. He didn't mention the police because he was afraid that some people would find it troublesome and wouldn't tell anyone even if he knew.

Suddenly, the proprietress stood up from her chair, holding one of the pictures and said in surprise: "Isn't this Guodong? Are you looking for him?"

Ye Lin was overjoyed when he heard this, "Do you know him?"

"I know him. He used to live in our village, but he's been out of the country for a long time." The lady boss handed over the picture. "You can't find him if you want to."

Ye Lin and Wang Longxin looked at each other and found the person.

"Police, this person is dead. We now need you to cooperate with us and tell us what you know."

"Dead?" The lady boss stood there with her mouth wide open. "Didn't he go abroad?"

"We found his body. Now tell us as much as you know."

The proprietress sat down with a look of shock on her face. "I don't know much. His name is Guo Guodong. I don't know where he came from, but he is Sister Mei's husband."

"Sister Mei, do you know her name and where she lives?"

"Then, Sister Mei from the village, just walk over here, there is a gray house over there." The proprietress pointed over there.

After hearing this, Wang Longxin wanted to go find Sister Mei, but Ye Lin stopped him.

"Wait, Madam Boss, you just said that this Guo Guodong went abroad?"

"Ah, that's what Sister Mei said."

A person who has been dead for 7 years, his family told others that he had gone abroad and did not report him missing. This is really suspicious.

"Then I would like to ask, are Sister Mei and Guo Guodong on good terms?"

"He looks okay, but this Guo Guodong is not Mei's original wife. She is the one Mei found later. He left the country within two years."

"We are all saying that Sister Mei was cheated by someone." The proprietress looked gossipy.

"What does it mean to be cheated?"

"Ah, Sister Mei's husband died a long time ago, and she raised her son and daughter by herself. When she got old, she suddenly found a man like this. Does he like her because she is old and ugly? Isn't it just because he wants her to make a little money and live off her?"

"And after this man left, her daughter also died. Tell me, how pitiful is that? Now she has only one son to take care of her." The proprietress was so excited when she talked about this that she couldn't stop.

Ye Lin also understood what was meant. The general meaning was that Sister Mei was a widow with a son and a daughter. She found Guo Guodong a few years ago, but they did not get married and just lived together.

Then about two years later, Guo Guodong suddenly passed away, his daughter also died, and now he has become a laughing stock in the village.

The proprietress was joking, but Ye Lin didn't think so.

This Sister Mei might be the murderer, otherwise she would not have announced to the public that Guo Guodong had gone abroad.

He glanced at Wang Longxin, and the two of them walked out of the grocery store and headed towards Sister Mei's home.

"Hey, don't say it was me who said that. Her son is a bit fierce." The proprietress rushed out and gave specific instructions, then slipped back into her shop.

Ye Lin was speechless for a while.

Following what the landlady said, Ye Lin walked to Sister Mei's door, and it seemed that the conditions were pretty good.

After ringing the doorbell, an old voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

"A courier." Ye Lin answered.

"coming."

After a while, the door opened and an old lady with white hair and trembling gait came out.

"Who are you looking for?" The old lady was not blind and could see that these two people were not couriers.

"Are you Sister Mei?" Ye Lin was a little skeptical. This old lady looked quite old. She should have been quite old 7 years ago. Would she still be looking for a man?
