Chapter 306: Tearing down walls and moving corpses
The first floor of the west building of the nursing home was completely blocked. There were only a few people living on the first floor, and most of them were rooms for leisure activities, so it was relatively easy to empty.

The forensic doctors from the criminal investigation detachment, Zhou Heping, and the others arrived in front of and behind them. Several people from the forensic department carried toolboxes and got in under the yellow cordon. They looked at the dark and deep corridor and the dim emergency lights on the walls. They couldn't help but I muttered a few words, feeling that it was a bit strange that there were no lights on in the corridor.

Zhou Heping and the forensic doctor had already gone to the room where the mummy was found. Lu Wenjing turned around and went to the person in charge of the nursing home and asked about the lighting in the corridor on the first floor.

The temperature has been quite high these days, but the director of the nursing home was breaking out in a cold sweat behind his back.

He looked at Lu Wenjing, who was wearing a black uniform, his face turned pale, and he said with lingering fear: "The lights in the corridor on the first floor of the West Building have always been like that. When I first took over the nursing home, all the lights on the first floor of the West Building were broken. , it stopped working within two days after I put it on. The light turned on was about the same as not turning on. Later I tried to replace the light bulb with a new one, and even changed the wattage of the light bulb, but it still didn't work. It usually takes less than a week after it is installed. , the electric light won’t work.”

"Over time, only the emergency light box was left on the first floor of the west building, but the light looked darker than other places."

"I always thought there was something wrong with the wiring over there. Later, after I went to the electrician to check it, he couldn't find anything wrong, so I stopped taking care of it."

"Who would have thought that there was a corpse buried in the wall on the first floor of the West Building... Is there really a ghost in this world?"

The more the dean said, the more scared he became, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

After all, everything that can be done has been done, but the first floor of the West Building is very strange.

Lu Wenjing glanced at her and couldn't help but said: "Okay, what age is this, and you are still engaging in nonsense. We will find out the case after it is completed. Please cooperate with our investigation and evidence collection."

The dean looked at him angrily for a while, murmured a few words, and finally closed his mouth: "..."

As for this bizarre thing, who would believe it if it wasn’t a ghost? !
……

Lu Wenjing quickly interrogated the basic situation.

The director of this nursing home is Huo Hong, who is 37 years old and took over the nursing home five years ago.

The nursing home was built 20 years ago. The person who funded the construction was a middle-aged man named Liu. He was alone during his lifetime. Huo Hong was his cousin.

After Dean Liu contracted a retroperitoneal tumor, because his condition deteriorated rapidly, he finally contacted Huo Hong and asked her if she was willing to take over the nursing home in Longshu Town.

Huo Hong is an ordinary three-year college graduate. She has been working in a small city since she graduated. Because she was not very competitive, she was laid off when the company encountered a financial crisis.

A relative suddenly appeared and wanted to give her an inheritance, and entrusted her to run a nursing home in Shantali. She was also frightened at first, but after visiting the nursing home in Longshu Town, plus the inheritance given by the lawyer and Dean Liu, , she finally decided to inherit the nursing home.

Nursing homes are private institutions and are responsible for their own profits and losses. If they are placed in a small place like Longshu Town, basically no loss is the biggest profit.

Fortunately, life here is peaceful. It was originally a mining area, and the nearby villagers actually had quite a lot of money. Although they disliked nursing homes at first, as society slowly developed, the resources in the mining area were depleted, and young people left in search of job opportunities and stayed behind. The local elderly care problem has become very prominent. Local people have gradually changed their view of nursing homes, and more elderly people have begun to live in nursing homes. In the past two years, they have gradually recovered and stopped losing money.

When Lu Wenjing heard this, he knew that Huo Hong probably knew nothing about the body in the wall on the first floor of the West Building.

The west building of the nursing home was built 20 years ago, and the lobby and east building floors were expanded on the original basis.

In the past 20 years, apart from painting the exterior and repairing and reinforcing leaks on the top floor, no work has been done on the first floor of the west building.

This also means that the female corpse in the wall has been dead for at least 20 years.

He must have been killed when the West Building was just under construction at that time, and someone found an opportunity to build it into the wall.Huo Hong also knew that the matter was serious. Although she didn't know much, her mind turned pretty quickly after she calmed down.

"I remember that there should be documents in the archives about the first phase of the nursing home project at that time, and the responsible construction company and person in charge can find them."

Lu Wenjing: "Then please look for the documents and prepare copies. We should need them."

"Thank you for your cooperation."

Huo Hong waved her hands quickly and walked quickly towards the building.

Her office was on the second floor of the west building. She originally entered the hall and walked west. She stopped, changed her direction to the east, and took a long way back to the office.

……

Zhou Heping and the forensic doctor entered the room where the body was found. When they entered, they first saw dust and bricks all over the floor.

After the forensic doctor opened the door, he pulled up his mask to cover his mouth and nose. There were only two police officers in the room who were holding cameras to record the scene. Flash lights would light up from time to time in the room.

Zhou Heping glanced at the gray lampshade above his head, took out the flashlight from his pocket, turned it on, and shined a light on the wall with a big hole in it.

The white wall showed spiderweb-like cracks, and the bricks were obviously dented inward at the holes, and the location was very low, reaching at most his thighs.

Therefore, the face of the corpse cannot be seen in the hole. You can only vaguely see the waterproof membrane wrapped around the body, slightly swollen due to corpse gas, and a bronze right hand leaking from the gap in the waterproof membrane. Because the wall was covered with After taking it apart, a very strange smell slowly spread from the cracks to the entire room.

Zhou Heping raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and shined a flashlight on the gap: "Mummy."

The people from the forensic department also nodded: "Fortunately, it's a mummified corpse. It should have been sealed in not long after death. Moreover, the murderer also specially wrapped the corpse with a layer of tarpaulin, and sealed it with lime cement to isolate the air. Preserve the body as much as possible."

Mummy bodies preserve evidence more comprehensively than skeletal corpses.

As long as the body has not been specially treated, they can find more clues from the body itself.

Zhou Heping looked at the location of the crack and believed that it was Xia Zhihuai's three-and-a-half-year-old sister who found the body, because the crack on the wall was too low.

But... isn't it a little outrageous for a three-year-old to tear down a wall with his bare hands?
After the trace examination department collected evidence from the scene, the forensic doctors began to dismantle the wall.

They spent a day completely demolishing the wall near the body and cleaning up the brick dust before moving the female body out of the wall.

The corpse was not stuffed upright, but was placed diagonally in the two rows of brick walls, so the wall looked very thick.

The body was put into a black body bag, loaded into a car and sent back to the autopsy room. It was already dark, and the two rows of sycamore trees at the entrance of the nursing home rustled in the breeze, and a drizzle as dense as cow hair soon fell from the sky.

A blurry shadow slowly floated out from the west building. She looked at the crowd slowly dispersing outside the nursing home and the white car going away. It flew lightly to the fence on the top floor. She gathered the skirt around her legs and looked out. Looking at the falling dusk and the peaceful town, I feel relieved.
