Chapter 15 Episode 15: The Corpse Pit's Counter-Ambush Plan (1 of 1)

  When I was in Heimao Pig Village, I secretly talked with Brother Chang.

  I asked him if he still remembered the case of the mass grave, and Brother Chang initially pretended that "this case never happened this time". But when I tentatively asked "what would happen if someone brought out evidence", his face was a rainbow spectrum of excitement, anticipation, and ecstasy!

  I said: "I was stared at by Wang Yong, and to be honest, I don't know anyone in the technical department of the provincial hall."

  "I know! I have a connection! Give it to me! Give it to me! I have..." Brother Chang was too excited.

  "Shh..." I hastily reminded him to keep his voice down, "Don't let Wang Yong hear."

  He glanced at Wang Yong in the distance, nodded, and shared a similar feeling with me, "Absolutely can't let him know!"

  My brother often helps me block the way, my hand reaches into the "safest inner pocket" of my collar to take out a soft bone and give it to my brother. He is shocked: "Where did you hide it?!?! Is it where I thought...?!?!"

  "Alright, shut your mouth for now, Chang Ge. About how many days will it take to get the results?"

  "Alright then!"

  And so, I formed a secret investigation alliance with Brother Chang for the Big Corpse Pit case.

  The day after I returned from Hei Mao Zhu Cun, it was my turn for a rest day. Old Chen called me to go to his home as a guest.

  I thought he was going to brainwash me again with the old cliché that "women are not suitable for forensic medicine", and reluctantly went to his house only to be surprised to find Brother Chang also there.

  Chen Lao and Chang Ge were shocked to find out that Wang Yong followed me!

  Only Wang Yong was extremely calm and seemed to have noticed nothing for the time being. "Old Chen, I'm here to mooch off you for food!"

  Mr. Chen's family is Mr. Chen's cooking skills, that one dish of sweet and sour fish was - incredible! We almost sucked the fish bones dry.

  After dinner, Old Mr. Chen said to his wife: "You stay and chat with Little Wang, have some fruit, don't be polite," he pointed at me and Chang's brother, "you two come with me."

  After the study door was closed, Old Chen said to me: "I heard that you brought out the evidence, well done! But how did Wang Yong come with you?"

  "I said: 'I couldn't get rid of him. But how did you know, Old Chen?'"

  "Uh-huh! What's going on? Don't even trust me?"

  I thought for a moment and said: "To be honest, I don't quite believe you. You're in cahoots with Director Zheng, and he's not exactly a good person..."

  Under Old Chen's stern gaze, I swallowed back the two words "things".

  Mentioning Director Zheng, Old Chen also looked a bit embarrassed. I think he knew that being the director's lackey and playing favorites in the workplace wasn't very glorious. Brother Chang hastily mediated: "Old Chen, let's talk business, look at the report."

  He pulled out a DNA matching result from a stack of rape case reports, "Through database comparison, the deceased is named Liu Jin. He was caught multiple times for tomb robbery, so his DNA data exists in the database."

  "Grave robbing? No wonder someone died from a weapon like a sword. It turns out the murder weapon was indeed a sword, an ancient one!" At that time, during the initial autopsy, I inferred that one of the victims had died from a sword-like weapon, and Dr. Gu even ridiculed me then. Now it seems my inference was completely correct.

  "Brother, just think about it, we already know of over ten people who have died for this treasure, it must be extremely valuable."

  "I said: 'Not only is it valuable, but extremely, extremely valuable. Otherwise, the army wouldn't have come, and 80% of it would be worth shocking the world!'"

  Chen's face was solemn: "I hope it's not someone higher up involved in the case..."

  "Chang often suggested: 'I have a few acquaintances in the antique and collectibles circle, I'll ask them to make some inquiries.'"

  "Be extremely careful with secrecy," I said, "the fewer people who know, the better."

  Mr. Chen also agreed with me: "This matter is not trivial, and we are afraid that any movement will be detected. There must be a reasonable reason, what do you say about investing in antiques?"

  Chang Ge said: "Alright, I remember Old Chen saying that after making money from stocks, buying antiques shouldn't raise any suspicions."

  "Haha, diversifying investments, this reason is good, at least it can cover up for a while," said Old Chen. "I'll give you the direction for this case in one word: stability. We must be stable, rather lose than wake up to danger, rather slow than rush into things. What we need to do is invest in stable stocks!"

  We discussed it again and finally divided the work, Chen Lao and Chang Ge took charge of pretending to invest in tomb robbing, while I was responsible for keeping an eye on Wang Yong, trying to dig out some valuable inside information from him, even if it's just a little bit.

  "Regardless of cost! Even if it means sacrificing our appearance."

  His brother whispered a reminder to Old Chen: "This is probably not suitable, Old Chen... her complexion is after all somewhat inferior..."

  I... I'm going!...
