Chapter 20

"Sometimes before the accident, she told me that she seemed to be entangled by someone, sending harassing messages and making harassing phone calls, which made her very anxious and in a particularly bad state." Xia Baiyan spread his hands, "But I didn't expect that she would die within two days."

Yang Wenbin frowned, "Didn't you say that Xie Fengming is your best friend? Why don't I look sad at all when I look at you?"

As a result, Xia Baiyan blinked and gave Yang Wenbin an unexpected answer.

"Why should I be sad?"

Yang Wenbin looked at this man in disbelief, "But... are you friends?"

Xia Baiyan tilted his head, "Why do you feel sad when your friend dies?"

Yang Wenbin opened his mouth, suddenly thought of something, and said, "...you are an antisocial personality."

"Bingo!" Xia Baiyan said happily, "It seems that you are quite smart, doctor, you are indeed a doctor who can solve cases!"

Such a person makes Yang Wenbin shudder a little, especially now that Yan Junli is not by his side, he is really a little terrified to deal with such a person face to face.

Yan Junli... I don't know how his investigation is going.

But he used himself!Thinking of this, Yang Wenbin became angry again.He is there, but it is just one more gun.He didn't believe that he would be unable to move even if he lacked a weapon. Reasoning and detecting cases was not done with the brain.

"Doctor Yang! Why are you in a daze!" After a while, Xia Baiyan had already rushed to a high place, waving at Yang Wenbin, "Come up quickly!"

Yang Wenbin leaned on an umbrella and complained endlessly.

"Cripple, let's go! I have something nice to show you." Xia Baiyan still had a conscience, reached out to give Yang Wenbin a hand, and excitedly climbed up the mountain.

Yang Wenbin was puzzled, so he could barely follow Xia Baiyan, climbing up the mountain little by little.Today, there are not many red maple trees on the Red Maple Mountain. After the government’s reconstruction, and the red maple garden transplanted the maple trees on the mountain, now there is only barren land on the mountain, with messy gravel, and it looks like a bird does not shit. .Going a little deeper, there are more dense forests, which seem to have grown after transformation.

Xia Baiyan was as nimble as a cat and dexterously slipped through the gaps between trees. Yang Wenbin was not so vigorous. He limped through the dense bushes, and was occasionally scraped by the branches beside him.

"What the hell is it?" Yang Wenbin shouted from a distance, "Have we arrived yet?"

If this bastard didn't show him something useful, Yang Wenbin vowed that he would never be stingy with a second fist.

"Here we are." Xia Baiyan stopped suddenly, and Yang Wenbin who was following behind almost bumped into him.

There are still those messy branches and wet leaves around, and there is no difference at all.

"Look at your feet." Xia Baiyan reminded.

Yang Wenbin followed his gaze and lowered his head in doubt, but was startled by the scene in front of him.

On the land in front of the two of them, a dense mass of buried bones was exposed.Near a big tree, half of a skeleton was exposed, staring blankly at the two with black eye sockets.From the downward position of the skeleton, the shoulders, ribcage and limbs can be vaguely discerned.This is the remains of a human being who has been dead for many years.

"This... this is..." Yang Wenbin remained silent for a while, "Who is this?"

Xia Baiyan squatted down in front of the skeleton without any fear, scraped away the soil with his hands, and played with the skull like a toy.

"Doctor Yang, come and take a look." Xia Baiyan showed Yang Wenbin the skull, "Do you think this head is weirder than other heads?"

Yang Wenbin glanced at Xia Baiyan with some apprehension, and then put his gaze on the skeleton, carefully examining it.Soon he discovered that the face of the skull had collapsed, and it was not the normal collapse after decay, but was corroded by something.

Yang Wenbin was a little reluctant to think in that direction, and said, "If a person has been dead for so long, as long as there are acidic substances in the soil, the bones will be corroded."

"If that's the case, the face of the skull and the back of the head will be corroded to the same degree." Xia Baiyan raised his chin, indicating this obvious fact.

Yang Wenbin fell silent, and looked at the skeleton again.

"Sulphuric acid was splashed on its face." Xia Baiyan said, "Doctor Yang, this is a victim in a serial murder case that the police didn't know about."

Without even thinking about it, Yang Wenbin reached into his pocket to take out his phone, "I have to tell Yan Junli about this!"

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Xia Baiyan dropped the skeleton and clamped Yang Wenbin's wrist, narrowing his eyes with a hint of threat, "No way!"

Yang Wenbin turned his head and stared fixedly at Xia Baiyan, "Xia Baiyan, are you sure? This is a blatant violation of the law, and the evidence is right in front of you, yet you tell me not to report it?"

However, within two seconds, Xia Baiyan returned to his playful and unruly look. He let go of Yang Wenbin's hand and raised his hands to show his surrender, "Dr. Yang, I didn't mean that. Of course you can tell the police officer , but don’t let him send the police over.”

"why?"

"Didn't I say it? Don't look at the vastness of the place and the sparse population here, the news spreads very quickly." Xia Baiyan pouted, "You think, you didn't find this corpse, it's because the murderer didn't want you to find it. If you found the corpse , the murderer knows, what will happen?"

"Are you afraid?"

"Wrong! Big mistake!" Xia Baiyan said shaking his head, "The murderer is afraid that he will be exposed, so he will only speed up his plan. He will quickly kill the people he plans to kill one by two, so that he can quickly pack up his belongings and escape !"

"How do you know he's going to kill someone?" Yang Wenbin asked in a deep voice.

"He has killed three people since 20 years ago, what makes you think he will stop killing people?" Xia Baiyan raised his chin and said confidently.

Yang Wenbin was speechless, hesitantly looking at the phone in his hand.

When he came out of Xie Fengming's neighbor's house, it was already dusk, and Yan Junli's mind was still lingering on the information that the young man just provided.Suddenly his stomach growled, and he remembered that he had been busy all day and didn't have time to eat dinner.

At this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket rang, Yan Junli took it out and laughed, and pressed the connect button.

"Hello?" Yang Wenbin's clean voice came from the phone.

Yan Junli cleared his throat and said solemnly, "This is Captain Yan's phone number. Captain Yan is temporarily unable to talk to you due to his busy schedule and bad mood. If there is anything urgent, please leave a message after the beep."
