South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 218 The murderer is brutal

After covering this corpse with white cloth, Yuan Mu lifted the white cloth on another corpse.

This was a woman in her forties, her whole body covered in blood, but Yuan Mu did not find any wounds on her neck or chest. He finally found a wound on her stomach, which was already covered in blood. It was estimated that she had been stabbed several times.

"Oh!" Yuan Mu sighed, then covered himself with a white cloth and stood up.

"Xiao Yuan, what's wrong?" Director Jiang walked over and asked.

"The murderer was very decisive. He probably just attacked without any nonsense. The man was killed with one knife, and the woman was stabbed at least four or five times. She probably died from excessive blood loss." Yuan Mu shook his head.

"Who did this?" Director Jiang also frowned.

"Captain Hu, take us to see the body that was shot!" Yuan Mu turned and looked at Captain Hu.

"Okay, follow me!" Captain Hu nodded and turned to leave.

"Hey! Police comrade, why are you leaving? You have to help me catch the murderer!" The son of the deceased grabbed the corner of Yuan Mu's clothes.

"Comrade, we are investigating now. When we can get support, we will analyze the case together. Please give us some time." Yuan Mu was not impatient. After all, this is human nature.

"Okay, Xiaotian, you have to trust the police comrades and let go!" Captain Hu stepped forward and pulled Xiaotian's hand away.

"Then police comrade, please help us!" Xiaotian choked.

"Don't worry, this is our duty!" Yuan Mu nodded solemnly.

Soon Yuan Mu followed Captain Hu to Secretary Zhao's home. There was no crying here at this time. After learning more about the situation, he found out that Secretary Zhao was about to retire and his children were all in other places.

At this time, the courtyard of Secretary Zhao's house was similar to that of Deputy Secretary Wang's house. There was also a corpse covered with white cloth in the courtyard. Yuan Mu adjusted his gloves and walked over, squatted down and lifted the white cloth.

Wow, a big bloody hole appeared at the position of the dead man's heart. The gunshot was really accurate. Yuan Mu directly lifted the body up and took a look at the back of the heart. Just as he guessed, the gunshot was shot from behind.

Because the bullet hole on the back is very small, while the wound on the chest is very large, judging by the power, it is estimated that it was shot from a Type 50 firearm. Of course, other firearms are not ruled out, but the caliber of the bullet should be 7.62, which is very close in power.

Then Yuan Mu stood up and searched around the yard. Captain Hu was a little confused when he saw this.

"Comrade Yuan Mu, what are you looking for?"

"Bullet shell, didn't you find any bullet shell at the scene?" Yuan Mu asked, looking up.

"No, we have searched the yard before and found no bullet shells." Captain Hu shook his head.

"Xiao Yuan, the murderer probably picked up the bullet shell." Director Jiang said.

"Well, if that's the case, then this group of people are probably trained." Yuan Mu said solemnly.

"Didn't your militia search the village?" Yuan Mu continued to ask.

"We have sent all the people out a long time ago, but no suspicious people have been found now." Captain Hu shook his head.

Yuan Mu nodded and then walked around the yard and the house, even checking the dead dog, and returned to Captain Hu again.

"I speculate that the murderer was probably an acquaintance. The murderer was very familiar with the deceased and knew the location of the dog in the yard. There were signs that the door lock had been pried open, and the marks of the prying lock were very clean. It was probably pried open in one go."

"Also, the murderer probably didn't go to the east room because they knew that no one was there. Instead, they went straight to the west room. This makes it even more certain that the murderer was an acquaintance. Moreover, the murderer seemed to have a grudge against the deceased. He acted cleanly and efficiently without leaving any tricks behind."

"Also, the murderer's method is very professional. He was able to accurately shoot someone in the back in such a dark day. He must have been a soldier or at least received militia training. Captain Hu, I suggest you check the people in your village." Yuan Mu analyzed as he lit a cigarette.

"Well, Comrade Yuan Mu, what you said makes sense. I will ask someone to investigate within our militia." Captain Hu nodded slowly.

At this moment, the sound of a rumbling car engine was heard outside the yard. It was the engine of the old Jiefang truck. Yuan Mu thought that the nearby police had arrived, so he walked out of the yard.

Not far away, they saw an old Jiefang car driving towards them quickly, but Yuan Mu soon realized something was wrong because the car showed no intention of slowing down at all.

"Retreat quickly!" Yuan Mu yelled, and then pulled the people around him back.

But it was too late. The car was going too fast and there were too many villagers watching nearby. The road was not wide, and the Jiefang car rushed over recklessly. Except for a few villagers who reacted quickly, the rest of the villagers were hit directly. Four or five villagers were knocked away immediately.

The Liberation car continued to rush towards the road ahead without slowing down. Yuan Mu realized at this time that the person in the car was probably the murderer.

"Captain Hu! Captain Hu! Call an ambulance quickly!" Yuan Mu shouted hurriedly.

At this time, seven or eight villagers were wailing, rolling and screaming on the ground. The scene was so tragic that Yuan Mu was very angry for a while. He was sure that the murderer was sitting in the car!

But he had no car now and could not catch up with the other party at all. Just when he was extremely anxious, several vehicles drove up from a distance, but this time there were obvious police signs on the cars. Several cars stopped and more than a dozen policemen got out of them.

"What's going on!!" A policeman in his thirties hurried over.

"Hello comrade, I'm from the Criminal Investigation Corps of the Kyoto Railway Public Security Bureau. My name is Yuan Mu! The murderer's car just ran along this road. We need to catch up with it quickly!" Yuan Mu didn't waste any time and directly took out his ID.

The policeman looked at the ID and the two men saluted each other.

"Comrade Yuan Mu! My name is Xiao Jianguo! I'm the deputy director of the Shunping Police Station in Pinggu District! Are you sure that's the murderer's car?"

"I can't be sure, but these villagers were hit by the car just now. I guess they are the same group of people!"

"Xiao Wang! Leave a few people to call for support and treat the villagers, and the rest of you follow me in the car and chase!" Xiao Jianguo was also a decisive person. He immediately gave the order with a wave of his hand.

"Yes!"

"Director Jiang! Please stay and help. I will follow him to catch the murderer!" Yuan Mu turned and looked at Director Jiang.

"Xiao Yuan! Be careful!" Director Jiang said worriedly.

"Don't worry!" Yuan Mu nodded, and then followed Xiao Jianguo into the first police car.
