Chapter 340: A Fox
In the office, Chen Yan was watching the videos from all the infrared cameras.
In the conversation with forest ranger Zhang Shulin just now, Chen Yan has basically ruled out Zhang Shulin's suspicion of committing the crime.
Throughout the communication process, Zhang Shulin's expression was very natural.
Nervous with a little fear.
Judging from the micro-expression analysis, Zhang Shulin did not lie.
More importantly, Chen Yan did not believe that Zhang Shulin had the ability to commit crimes.
Before the interrogation, Chen Yan had carefully studied Zhang Shulin's background information.
The background of this person can be described as having no background.
Twenty years ago, he was a worker at a logging camp.
Later, after logging was banned in the forest area, Zhang Shulin, like other loggers, changed his job to become a forest ranger.
From lumberjacks to forest rangers, there are plenty of them on the black market.
Zhang Shulin is one of the most ordinary people.
The forest area responsible for the inspection does not have any economic forest species, and no one has illegally logged them for so many years.
The daughter-in-law is farming at home, and the son has not been admitted to college, and has been working outside after graduating from high school.
There are no enemies, and no related parties with conflicting interests.
Just an ordinary person.
In this case, according to the preliminary investigation, the six victims had been confirmed to have left the country through the black market port, disappeared in the Big Bear Country, and were killed in Maoer Mountain.
This was the case for the six people, and Chen Yan guessed that it was very likely that the other people were also in the same situation.
However, Chen Yan has not yet grasped the specific identities of these people.
But even so, who can bring the six people who worked in the Big Bear country back to the country quietly?
It is even quite possible that there are not six people, but 36 people.
Zhang Shulin?
Obviously impossible.
Putting aside distracting thoughts, Chen Yan calmed down and began to watch the video.
Chen Yan didn't start from yesterday's record, but from a week ago.
Judging from the situation at the scene, the time of the incident was actually the early morning of the day before yesterday.
The reason why it was so long in advance was that Chen Yan wanted to gain an understanding of the normal environment of Mao'er Mountain through these videos.
Then, compare it with the video during the time of the incident.
In this way, Chen Yan can better judge that the information is abnormal.
The visual gene lock is on!
With the ability to freeze the picture, the videos taken by the four infrared cameras flashed alternately in Chen Yan's mind.
The 36x speed video playback makes it impossible for normal people to see what is on the screen.
However, in the bottom of Chen Yan's heart, even at 36 times the speed, it was like slow motion, and every frame of the picture was zoomed in front of his eyes with incomparable clarity.
Every time the video records the sound,
They all left imprints in Chen Yan's mind.
...
Eight hours later, Chen Yan had watched all the infrared videos before the incident.
As Zhang Shulin said, there are not many wild animals on Maoer Mountain.
Especially large wild animals.
In the past week, only the camera on the top of the mountain has captured a rabbit.
Look at the sky outside the window, the sun on May 2 has already risen.
Black Market Detective Team cafeteria.
Didn't sleep all night?
Looking at Chen Yan's state, Wang Min knew that he hadn't slept all night.
Served Chen Yan a bowl of millet porridge: Any new discoveries?
After receiving the millet porridge, Chen Yan shook his head: Not yet, this morning, I will probably be able to finish watching the video, and I will watch it later.
Lin Gang and Xu Wen haven't come back yet?
The breakfast of the Black Market Detective Team is not bad, there are steamed stuffed buns, as well as soy milk and fried dough sticks.
Wang Min took a bite of the fritters in his hand: Not yet, it will probably take two or three days.
Six people have been identified, living in various locations on the black market.
Five of them are in the countryside and one is in the city.
The place of residence is relatively far away, and it is more difficult to investigate.
Tian Xuwen's progress was even slower.
The black market is the northernmost large city bordering Hua Country and Big Bear Country.
The border is thousands of kilometers long.
These people may be smuggled back in any place.
So it is more difficult to investigate.
Even, Tian Xuwen wanted to use the intelligence network of the Criminal Investigation Corps in the Big Bear Country.
Chen Yan nodded, this case is different from the past.
Can't rush.
There are too few clues at the scene, Chen Yan and others can only look for clues from the victim.
After breakfast, Chen Yan squinted in the office for a while.
The next work is the most important.
Chen Yan wanted to compare the images captured by the four infrared cameras on the night of the 29th, the day the crime occurred, with the previous ones.
Chen Yan has already analyzed the positions of the four infrared cameras.
Needless to say, the infrared camera on the top of the mountain.
When Chen Yan saw it on the plane, it was taken when the crime happened that day.
There was a miserable and terrifying cry, and a slight vibration.
But because of the angle, the camera did not capture the black mud and blood pool.
But the strange thing is that Chen Yan only found a strange footprint at the scene, but there were no traces left by other people.
This is illogical.
If there is only one single footprint at the scene, is the owner of the footprint the screaming victim?
If yes, then who was the black shadow that flashed past the camera that night?
Why did he leave no trace?
If he wasn't the victim, why did he scream?
And that black mud and blood pool.
The depth is about one meter, and the inside is filled with blood.
Can this be done by one person?
There is also the enshrined cinnabar token, which is still being analyzed and tested, and the results have not yet come out.
I don't know if useful information can be extracted from the above.
However, according to the legend about the black mud and blood pool mentioned by Wang Qiang, the spirit card should have the birth date of the person cursed by the black mud and blood pool.
After taking a nap for an hour, Chen Yan continued to work.
The daytime video on the 29th is no different from the previous ones.
The breeze in the mountains rustled the leaves.
Four infrared cameras faithfully record everything around.
At 6:30, the sky was getting darker, and the color of the picture in the infrared camera also changed from color to gray.
At 10:23, a figure appeared in front of seat one.
I can't see the specific color of the fox, the light in the eyes is very bright, and it is walking in front of the camera.
Is this the fox that Zhang Kai mentioned?
Press the pause button, and the clips in the video are constantly replayed in Chen Yan's mind.
Foxes are nothing special.
In the dark, the fox's pupils dilate, which allows it to see clearly in the dark.
When the infrared camera is shooting, the fox's eyes will have obvious reflections.
Camera No. 1 was the closest camera to the foot of the mountain, and it was also the closest camera to the scene where Chen Yan found his severed hand.
The fox in the video is leisurely, as if walking instead of looking for food.
Gululu...
In the video, the sudden sound of birdsong seemed to disturb the fox.
With a jump, the fox's figure has disappeared in front of the camera.
Chen Yan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
There doesn't seem to be anything suspicious about the whole picture.
However, Chen Yan always felt that something was wrong.
What's wrong...
Fox's move?
It won't be fake, absolutely not.
The fox in the video is very agile, there is no possibility that it is fake.
Besides, the other party made a fake fox...
It's useless.
The murderer must have been unaware of the existence of the infrared camera, and had removed it long ago.
No clues would be left for Chen Yan at all.
Fox's voice?
The fox is shown for a short time in the video, so it's normal for the fox not to make any noise.
But, what is wrong...
Um!
The picture in Chen Yan's mind suddenly stopped.
Neither!
The picture is not right, and the sound is not right!
