Jiang He pointed at the glass shards and said, "Did you see that there is a big problem with the glass shards?"

Shao Lao looked at these glass fragments, which were transparent. From the appearance, it could basically be inferred that this was a transparent glass for ordinary household drinking water. From the internal texture point of view, the texture of this cup is ordinary, and the price is of course not expensive.

"From any point of view, this is just an extremely ordinary cup." Shao Lao said: "It's the kind of ordinary cup that costs ten yuan and five in the market."

"That's right." Jiang He's mind was already racing: "But I'm not referring to a complete cup."

Elder Shao looked at Jiang He, and Jiang He had closed his eyes at this moment, not knowing what he was thinking. For a moment, Shao Lao understood: "Are you talking about the fragments of the cup?"

Jiang He didn't speak, just thought in his mind. The dozen or so pieces of glass shards laid flat in front of him gradually began to take shape in Jiang He's mind. Those shards were like 3D puzzles one by one, constantly changing and revolving in combination.

Until, these fragments formed a whole in Jiang He's mind, a glass before it was shattered.

"One piece is missing." Jiang He said, "Are you sure you brought back all the glasses?"

A criminal policeman on the side said: "Yes, we brought back the entire trash can, and then sorted and investigated all the garbage in it. It can be determined that all the glass fragments are here. If it is true If one piece is missing, it's definitely not in the trash can."

"However." The detective scratched his head: "The glass is broken into such small pieces, how can you be sure that there is one missing piece?"

Jiang He pointed to his head: "It depends on my head. I recorded the appearance, shape, and size of each piece of glass. Even if some shards were broken into fine pieces of glass slag, generally no Wrong. No matter how I spell it, I'm missing a piece. I'm 90 percent sure that there must be a piece missing."

Mr. Shao said to the detective: "Immediately arrange for someone from the technical department to put this glass back together to see if there is one missing piece."

The detective nodded.

Jiang He looked at Mr. Shao and said, "Have the staff searched Wang Ziyi's house carefully? Are there any extra pieces that fell under the sofa or the coffee table?"

"No." Shao Lao said decisively: "They have always done these things very meticulously, and they should not miss them."

"Yeah." Jiang He nodded and said, "Blood was found on the glass shard, and a piece was missing. I speculate that the murderer may have taken it."

Shao Lao stood up, paced in the conference room, thought for a while, and said, "Whether it was intentional or not, the murderer broke the glass and hurt himself. In order not to leave marks, he would scratch The shard of his own glass was taken away. The murderer thought that no one would be so meticulous and found that the glass was missing a small piece."

Hearing Lao Shao's words, Jiang He also nodded, which was probably the case.

Shao Lao continued: "But if this is the case, we may never find that piece of glass in our life. A small piece of glass is really insignificant. But the murderer will definitely not think of it, there is something that can't even be seen with the naked eye. Blood dripped onto another piece of debris."

"Look at Xu Yiman." Shao Lao said: "The DNA comparison results should be out soon."

Jiang He nodded and was about to get up when Old Shao's cell phone rang.

"Hello? Are you?" It was an unfamiliar number.

"Really?" Shao Lao was a little overjoyed: "We'll go right away."

"Whose phone number?" Jiang He asked.

Shao Lao smiled and said to Jiang He, "Get 2,000 yuan ready, we'll go to the northwest suburbs right away."

"Have you found that cellar?" Jiang He asked.

"I found it." Shao Lao replied.

At this time, Xu Yiman pushed open the door and walked in. She said, "I compared Lu Zhengye's DNA just now, and found that the blood on the glass fragments is not Lu Zhengye's. The murderer may be someone else."

Shao Lao nodded, his eyes were deep: "Let's put this matter aside, the old scavenger has found the cellar in the northwest suburbs, and we will go to the scene immediately."

"Did Wei Linghui find it..."

"Call Yuan Jun." Shao Lao said.

The task force members sailed to the northwest suburbs.

In the car, Shao Lao asked Yuan Jun, "How is it, do you have any clues on that line?"

Yuan Jun nodded and said: "I have been looking for news about the rest of Lu Zhengye's family for the past two days. According to the information about Lu Zhengye's family that Guan Deng gave me, I just contacted Lu Zhengye's parents an hour or two ago. Lu Zhengye's parents told me that their son suddenly went silent three months ago. He turned off the phone and asked his friends, all of them had never seen him, and they didn't know where their son went. They're also going to call the police and look for it."

"But they didn't call the police," Xu Yiman said.

Yuan Jun nodded: "Yes, they didn't call the police. Because Lu Zhengye's father felt that his son had just been released from prison and he didn't understand what was going on, so he called the police again. He was afraid that his son would do something bad again. But his mother said it was impossible. His mother said that although Lu Zhengye was a socialist all day, he was not bad at heart."

Shao Lao was silent for a moment, and said, "Ten years. Ten years ago, I didn't even know what a smartphone was. Ten years later, smartphones, smart TVs, and online payments have all developed so fast. People who came out of prison. , they have long been out of touch with society, and it takes a long time for them to adapt to society."

"It seems that all mothers in the world think that their sons are good." Xu Yiman said at this time: "I have seen photos of Lu Zhengye, he was very handsome when he was young, if you want to walk the right way, maybe you can still To be a star or something, but, he has embarked on the road of breaking the law."

Jiang He said, "We need to investigate."

Shao Lao nodded and said, "That's right. Lu Zhengye's sudden disappearance must have some signs before. I think his parents should have some clues. Whether Lu Zhengye is the murderer or not, this case cannot be separated from him. relation."

"This person's hatred." Shao Lao sighed and said, "It's really a person's deep-rooted feeling. Loving someone probably won't last for three or five years, but if you say hating someone, it can last for ten years, ten years. A few years, or even a lifetime. And the revenge brought by hatred is likely to destroy many people."

"Maybe this is the inferiority of human beings."

When I came to the vicinity of the previous garbage mountain, the old scavenger was already waiting at the place where they met before.

When the old scavenger saw Mr. Shao getting out of the car, he said, "Come on, come on, we have found the cellar you mentioned."

Shao Lao nodded and said, "Take us right away."

"Yeah." The old scavenger nodded, but he didn't mean to leave at all.

"Let's go." Yuan Jun urged.

Shao Lao smiled, and naturally understood what the old man meant: "Jiang He, give the two thousand yuan to this old brother."

Jiang He nodded, took the two thousand yuan from the car, and handed it to the old scavenger: "You count, it is two thousand yuan."

The old scavenger took the two thousand yuan, stuffed it directly into the inner pocket of his shirt, and said, "Hey, what are you counting? In my life, I believe in the police the most. But that place is a bit far, and the car If you can’t drive in, you have to ride a bicycle to get in. Come with me, we don’t have much else here, we have enough bicycles, come on!”

Having said that, the old scavenger took everyone to ride a bicycle.

"Old Shao, let me take you." Yuan Jun said, "This road is not easy."

"Yeah." Shao Lao nodded.

Xu Yiman blushed and said, "I can't ride a bicycle."

"Hehe." Yuan Jun said with a smile: "You're so skilled at driving, you can't ride a bicycle, you don't have childhood at first glance."

"Hmph." Xu Yiman snorted, looked at Jiang He who was picking out a bicycle, and said, "Drive me."

Jiang He nodded: "Then I have to choose a mountain bike..."

The old scavenger had quick legs. He pushed a bicycle first and walked forward. While riding, he said to several people: "Don't say it, that place is really hard to find, and the car will definitely not be able to drive in, only walking or riding It's a car. Most people rarely go to that place, and if it wasn't to help you find someone, most people wouldn't go in there."

"The cellar is on a hill, and the outside is full of mud. Most people can't go up and can't see the iron cover on the cellar. This is still a forty-year-old young man, who happened to be near the hill that day. Then he went I heard someone crying, but I couldn't see where they were."

"Fortunately, it was broad daylight. If it was night, it would have scared people to death. After searching for a long time, he thought that someone threw the child away, and that the nearby children were crying. No one could be found, and then he stood up. He looked on the mountain bag to see if there was an abandoned baby or something, and as a result, he felt that his feet were hard, and he lowered his head and wiped it with his hands, only to see that it was something like a manhole cover."

"But there is a lock on the outside of this manhole cover, and the cover is locked, and the cry came from here. Then he remembered what I said to him, and came to me, I hurried I've called you guys." After speaking, the old scavenger pointed to the big pliers in the basket of his car and said, "Look, I've prepared tools for you."

Shao Lao smiled, thinking that the old man was well prepared.

It took about an hour or so to ride the bike, and everyone meandered around in the garbage mountain, and finally came to this place. The piles of garbage here are not high, like small mounds. The sun shone diagonally, almost unobstructed from here, which was almost the same as Jiang He's guess.

When I came to the small mound, it was exactly as the old scavenger said.

"The footprints are gone," Jiang He said.

Everyone looked, and sure enough, there were no footprints on the soil. But the person who discovered the cellar will not be idle to dispose of his footprints. In other words, there are others.

"Could it be that the people in the cellar were moved?" Jiang He asked.

But at this moment, only the sound of crying came from the cellar.
