Chapter 467 Exogenous Branches
The A·103 case has come to this point, and yet another problem arises. The appearance of a woman who faked her death has brought the A·103 case into a bigger mystery.

This woman named Zhou Jie who appeared beside Grandpa at a critical moment became the key to solving the case.

In the past few days, Lin Shen had to re-deduce the whole case. She carefully sorted out the personal information about Zhou Jie given by Lao Xu from the beginning.

At that time, the registration of household files in rural and mountain villages was generally rough, and many people did not even have household registration. The files about Zhou Jie in the county were limited to those provided by Lao Xu before.

Zhou Jie, female, born in 1943, unmarried, from Nanli Village, Yitang Township, Nanlou County, Yunzhong City, Eastern Guangdong Province, her parents died early, and she has a junior high school education.

In 1982 and September, I took a group photo with my grandfather at the Palace Museum in Yanjing.

In July 1983, while sailing to Dongying, the ship crashed, and Zhou Jie died in the shipwreck along with 7 passengers.

In June 1989, she appeared in overseas Huagao auctions, changed her name to Jones Zhou, and sold a large number of national treasures from King Kang's tomb, making tens of billions of profits.

He suspended his death first, and appeared at an overseas auction as a collector after 6 years and 11 months.

In the 6 years since she disappeared, the tomb of King Xue Kang was stolen, 5 of the 2 tomb rooms were stolen, and a large number of precious burial cultural relics were replaced by fakes. Craftsmanship, the means of deceiving the sky and crossing the sea are so high that it is astonishing.

Lin Shen carefully identified the group photo of Zhou Jie and Kane's father that he took back from the Spruce Castle in England.

In the photo, Kane's father shakes hands with Zhou Jie. Analyzing from Zhou Jie's expression, the smile obviously contains a hint of far-fetchedness, which seems to be reluctant, like a little dodge.

It's no wonder that a thoughtful woman who would not hesitate to feign death to hide her identity would definitely not take a photo with someone if she had no other choice.

Deep in Lin Shen's mind, he was able to restore the scene at that time.

Jones Zhou was enthusiastically held by the wealthy old Kane, unable to get away, acting in front of the camera, and his forced smile was recorded by the camera.

A clever woman almost erased all her records during her lifetime, but left behind this photo that shouldn't be kept.

Xu Shi took the photo at the time in order not to offend the big client, with a hint of luck.

If Lin Shen hadn't found this photo due to various chances and coincidences, I am afraid that the A·103 case would have been hastily closed, and the coffin would have been concluded.

Lin Shen took over this national treasure case in order to fulfill her grandfather's last wish and reveal the truth behind the scenes. Retiring despite difficulties is not her way of doing things.

After discussing with Lao Xu, Lin Shen adjusted the direction of the investigation, and started a targeted investigation with Zhou Jie as a breakthrough point.

For several days in a row, Lin Shen stayed in Shanglin Tiandi, locked himself at home, and dug out all the archaeological materials of King Xue Kang's tomb left by his grandfather brought back from the capital during his lifetime, conducting comprehensive research and hoping to find new discoveries.

Lin Shen has entered into a crazy working state of 16+8 every day.

Qin Xiaoran is also very busy with work, and the development of the group is still on the rise. As the president, he wishes he could give birth to superhuman powers.

Apart from work, Qin Xiaoran occasionally spends time in the shooting room. In the past two years, he has become obsessed with shooting sports, and Lin Shen is his personal instructor.

SKP has added a shooting club for this purpose, and the number of applicants is very hot.

Whenever Qin Xiaoran feels tired from work, he will come here to do decompression exercises.

His little girlfriend tailor-made a training plan for him, with regular assessments, the CEO dare not slack off.

Both of them are busy with work, and the time to get together is very short. Occasionally, when they have uncontrollable passion, they are very restrained, for fear of affecting the work of the next day.

As a result, President Qin was not full several times in a row.

After a few days of targeted combing of information, Lin Shen finally made a new discovery.

The tomb of King Xue Kang is located in Molong Mountain at the junction of Yundu and Yunzhong. Lin Shen compared the satellite map and entered the coordinates and directions in the data to search.

The map coordinates of Xue Kangwang's tomb are only tens of kilometers away from Zhou Jie's hometown, Nanli Village, Yitang Township, Nanlou County, which seems to explain some problems.

Lin Shen also studied Xue Kangwang's life information, including the biography of unofficial history, and made some unexpected discoveries.

King Xue Kang had strange and complicated hobbies in his life. In addition to collecting antiques, he also liked to make alchemy and cultivate immortals. Lin Shen suspected that he was killed by himself.

Moreover, this person didn't want to be his great official in frontiers. He studied the art of geomantic omen and geomancy when he was full.

In order to satisfy his hobby of collecting antiquities, King Xue Kang robbed and dug countless tombs of former kings in his life.

His collections range from the Yin and Shang Dynasties down to the Han and Tang Dynasties. They are all-encompassing and too numerous to list, and more than half of them are obtained from tomb robbers.

In addition, according to an unofficial historical record, Lin Shen also learned that among the disciples of King Xue Kang, there were two masters from Miaojiang. They were a couple. Know how to use Gu to raise corpses.

That is to say, Tarkan and Yanluo can refine zombies.

It is recorded in the article that King Xue Kang knew that robbing tombs in his life was harmful to his morality, and he was worried that he would be robbed after death, so he asked his subordinates to refine zombies to guard the tomb for him.

The unofficial history story is well told, and Lin Shen is very interested in the content of this article.

She searched and compared her grandfather's diary. The archaeological team conducted two archaeological investigations in 89 and located and opened two tombs in the tomb of King Xue Kang. No bones of those buried with him were ever found.

Prior to this, tomb robbers had visited these two tombs, so the question is, have these tomb robbers discovered the zombies recorded in the unofficial history?

Everything is impossible to check.

Lin Shen looked at the photos of the two tombs taken by the archaeological team one by one. In addition to the collection, each tomb has three huge clay-bodied pottery urns with rough craftsmanship. When the tomb was opened, the pottery urns had already broken.

Regarding the pottery urns, there are records in Grandpa's diary, and it is mentioned that the texture and craftsmanship of those pottery urns are very rough.

Grandpa described it in his diary as a large dung tank, and its texture was similar to that of an old-fashioned red brick flower pot.

There is some residual fluid in the bottom of the urn, which is sticky, dirty and smelly, and none of the archaeologists are willing to touch it.

In the end, everyone agreed that the two urns had no archaeological value and were abandoned at the scene, and did not enter Beijing with other treasures.

The tomb of King Xue Kang belongs to the extremely rare "Lianxin Tomb" in terms of structural design, also known as "Zuobao Lotus Mountain".

Its internal design and structure are unique, extremely rare in the history of archaeology, and can even be described as tricky and weird.
