Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1433: Hunting Crime + Fireworks 58

Jiang Feng found Li Hong listed in the missing person notice. "That Li Hong is a local, 37 years old, who makes a living by picking up waste. She went missing a year ago, and her husband was the one who reported her missing. She didn't have any valuables on her when she went missing."

"Another thing is that she had rickets when she was a child and had a hunchback."

Du Cheng suddenly felt a little overwhelmed and asked Jiang Feng, "Can you confirm where Li Hong went missing?"

Jiang Feng shook his head. "It is not clear where Li Hong went missing for the time being. We need to conduct further investigations."

Jiang Feng and Du Cheng walked around the demolition area, but no one knew Li Hong. When they passed through the demolition area and came to a residential building, they saw an old man picking up cans and corrugated paper.

Du Cheng hurried over and asked, "Uncle, have you seen Li Hong here?"

The old man was just annoyed by being disturbed. He crushed a can with his foot, and without even looking at Du Cheng, he said directly: "What Li Hong and Zhang Hong? I've never heard of them, and I don't know them!"

Jiang Feng rolled his eyes and came up to play the victim: "Uncle, please take a closer look, this is our relative, she usually picks up trash around here, and suddenly she disappeared, we are really worried about her!"

The old man then raised his head hesitantly. Seeing that his attitude had softened, Jiang Feng quickly continued: "Uncle, she disappeared suddenly. We are all worried that something extreme might happen. Please take a look at her——"

Du Cheng also quickly took out Li Hong's photo and continued to act along with Jiang Feng's words: "Uncle, please take a look——"

The old man actually took Li Hong's sudden disappearance to heart, but he didn't know that the other person's name was Li Hong. "Isn't this the hunchbacked woman? I remember her. I haven't seen her for a while."

The old man took out his mobile phone to check the group messages. Jiang Feng and Du Cheng both had expressions that showed they had learned something new.

The old man looked through the news carefully and soon found the news about Li Hong. "She collected cans on that open street. She said she found some good stuff on Chunzhi Road. There was also an accident at the chemical plant in the old district. We didn't go there, but she did."

Jiang Feng and Du Cheng thanked them repeatedly and turned around to go to the chemical plant. The chemical plant had been abandoned due to an accident a few years ago, but the factory across the street still had security guards guarding the gate. Du Cheng and Jiang Feng did not get much information, but they were sure that Li Hong had been to the abandoned chemical plant opposite.

In the hospital, Shen Yi finally restored the appearance of the labor protection gloves that Guo Yuan saw based on Guo Yuan's description after excluding Nike. Xu Qin quickly checked and found that there was indeed a Hongda Chemical Plant in Jiangbei District, but it has been abandoned due to a serious fire accident a few years ago.

This huge chemical plant is not far from the demolition area.

The Hongda Chemical Factory was abandoned after the workers in and around the factory were evacuated due to a fire. There are security guards patrolling here, but they only come every few days, so the possibility of other people coming in and out cannot be ruled out.

The security guard from Hongda Chemical Factory came over quickly after contacting the security guard from the factory next door. However, after entering the factory, he was unable to produce the key to a basement.

The security guard said, "I have never seen this basement before, so I don't know where the key is. But this is just an ordinary padlock. If I can't open it after trying all the other padlocks, I can only rely on you two officers."

The security guard tried all the keys to the padlocks, but they couldn't open the padlock on the ground. "This looks like a place where small liquid ammonia tanks or other raw materials are stored, but this lock looks new and there are no signs of burning. I guess someone did something with it later."

Jiang Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked meaningfully, "You can see this?"

The security guard was not even middle-aged yet, and probably kept his phone in his hand all the time. He immediately smiled sheepishly and said, "Oh, there are so many online novels. I like the ones that solve crimes recently. I can sometimes say a few words after reading so many of them."

Jiang Feng picked up a steel bar and hit it twice, and the padlock that looked new was opened. When Du Cheng lifted the iron gate, a familiar stench immediately rushed up.

The security guard also smelled a smell that was not ammonia. His legs suddenly went weak and he couldn't help but take two steps back. Then he saw Du Cheng and Jiang Feng going down directly with their noses covered. He was immediately in awe: As expected, some things are not something ordinary people can do!

As Du Cheng and Jiang Feng arrived at the basement one after another, they were stunned by a shocking scene.

In the middle of this medium-sized basement, six corpses were placed in certain positions and postures.

The scene was so shocking that Du Cheng and Jiang Feng couldn't help but put down their hands that were covering their noses.

Du Cheng, who was the first to react, immediately called the technical team and the forensic department, and also called the local police station to come for support.

Xu Qin and Shen Yi rushed back to the police station after hearing the news. The technical team spent a day and finally delivered the results:

"The bodies in the basement of Hongda Chemical Factory belong to Wang Xiaomeng, Zhao Yuanqing, Liu Fang, Li Hong, Zhou Guoliang and Feng Xiaowen."

"Wang Xiaomeng, 28 years old, receptionist at a media company, was confirmed missing a week ago. We found bleeding in the petrous part of her temporal bone, so we inferred that her cause of death was drowning. There were signs of tying her hands and feet, so she must have been tied up and then drowned."

"Zhao Yuanqing, 26 years old, an employee of an electronic component factory, was confirmed missing five months ago and died of drowning. However, due to the severe decomposition of the body, the exact time of death cannot be determined for the time being."

"Liu Fang, 33 years old, the proprietress of the Never-Sleeping City karaoke bar, disappeared ten months ago. There was a fatal wound on her chest caused by a sharp weapon."

"Li Hong, 37 years old, made a living by collecting waste. She disappeared a year ago. Her cause of death was asphyxiation caused by external force. The initial speculation is that someone strangled her neck with a hemp rope from behind."

"Zhou Guoliang, 42 years old, real estate agent, disappeared a year and a half ago. The cause of death was asphyxiation due to external force. We found a strange powder in his nasal cavity. The specific composition requires further technical testing."

"Feng Xiaowen, 50 years old when she disappeared, was from Nansha City. She was the only non-local among the six victims. She was a Peking Opera actress of the Zhaohui Peking Opera Troupe. One and a half years ago, her daughter reported the case to the Nansha City Police Station and said she had not seen her for half a year."

"According to our assumption, Feng Xiaowen was the first victim among the six victims. Because the body was the most decomposed, the specific cause of death cannot be estimated for the time being, but traces of violent fractures were found on her left shin bone and left forearm, and four fingers on her right hand also showed signs of dislocation."
