Chapter 151 Discovery of the corpse
Following Reis's instructions, Cheng Shi searched in front of the choir stage, but did not find the keys and certificates Reis had mentioned.
He was very sure that Reis was not lying. He was not even afraid of death, but now that he knew the truth, he would not lie to himself.
That means it was taken away by someone else, but who was it?!
It probably wasn't Albert who took it, because Albert knew he couldn't take it out, and there was no need for him to take it.
Cheng Shi thought for a moment and thought of a possibility. It was probably Catherine and Jim who took it away.
Thinking of this, Cheng Shi stopped looking for the key and went with Deng Xin to the secret residence at No. 12 Masnan Road.
When Cheng Shi and the two arrived at their destination, they found that it turned out to be a two-story villa. He did not expect that this turned out to be a villa.
Because Cheng Shi thought that Albert's secret residence was in a relatively private place in a certain apartment, but he didn't expect that he would be so high-profile.
Cheng Shi and the two found the patrolman guarding outside and said, "How is it? Is anyone deliberately approaching here?!"
One of the patrolmen quickly replied: "No one has been here since we arrived."
Cheng Shi nodded and continued: "Okay, now you open the door first, but don't follow me in first, just stay outside."
After the patrolman used tools to open the door, Cheng Shi and Deng Xin put on their gloves and walked in slowly one after the other.
After Cheng Shi and the two entered, they walked around. His first impression of this place was that it was a house shared by a man and a woman.
And most of the things inside are in line with women's aesthetics, but there are still a few men's things, and they are all necessities.
So Cheng Shi knew that this was a house where a man and a woman lived, but it was not necessarily the house where Albert and his lover lived.
Cheng Shi didn't find any photos inside, and what was even more strange was that there wasn't a single piece of clothing inside.
And the small villa is also very clean. Although no one has lived here for a long time, it should be cleaned frequently.
Cheng Shi didn't find anything useful in the villa because it had been carefully cleaned.
Cheng Shi continued: "It seems there is nothing. Albert is really cautious. After Reis was arrested, he should have dealt with this place."
Deng Xin sighed and said, "What should we do now? Reis only gave two clues in total, and they are useless now."
Cheng Shi smiled and said: "At least we have Reis as a witness, and Albert won't be able to figure it out in the short term."
Deng Xin then said: "Then let's go back on patrol now?!"
Cheng Shi thought for a while and said, "He may have disposed of everything, but where is the woman?!
I suspect that she has died in the hands of Albert. Let’s assume she was killed here, where will the body be?!”
Deng thought for a moment and said, "Buried in the yard."
After Deng Xin finished speaking, Cheng Shi did not answer and took the lead from the back door to the small courtyard of the villa.
There was nothing in the small yard, not even weeds. Cheng Shi looked around and then sighed: "Oh, it's true."
Deng Xin asked in confusion: "What's wrong?!"
Cheng Shi pointed to an obviously sunken pit in the yard and said, "That should be where the woman's body is buried."
Deng Xin walked to the small pit pointed by Cheng Shi, carefully looked at the few small cracks in the pit, and said.
"I also agree. The soil was very loose when the body was buried. After a period of rain, the ground here sank."
Cheng Shi then asked the patrolman outside the door to find some shovels, and several people dug the small hole accordingly.
A red cloth appeared in front of everyone, and after they continued digging, a severely decomposed corpse was revealed in front of them.
Cheng Shi and others immediately dispersed. After the smell dissipated a little, Cheng Shi ordered the patrolman to take the body back to the patrol room.
Cheng Shi and his party rushed back to the patrol room. The two patrolled first and went to the underground laboratory. Cheng Shi finally saw Francis again.
After Francis saw Cheng Shi, he came over with excitement, hugged Cheng Shi tightly, and said excitedly.
"Thank you very much for your discovery. Now that I have studied the principle of imaging, the next step is to enhance this effect again."
Cheng Shi was also very happy after hearing this, and continued: "That's great. After the effect is strengthened, it will be very helpful for us to solve cases in the future."
Francis regained his excitement a little, and then said doubtfully.
"You came here to ask about the pile of bones you found, right? After my inspection, it is initially estimated that they were suffocated to death."
This was not what Cheng Shi meant when he came here, but Francis' words still aroused Cheng Shi's curiosity.
Cheng Shi said doubtfully: "There are only white bones left in the body, how can you tell that he was suffocated?!"
Francis smiled and said: "Isn't this very simple? The deceased did not die from sharp or blunt weapons, nor from poisoning.
Then there are only a few ways to die, either by being drowned in water, or by having your mouth and nose covered, or in the end, you die from breathlessness."
Cheng Shi then asked: "Then why do you think the deceased was suffocated to death instead of drowned?!"
Francesci continued: "Because, I found that there were some minor injuries on the upper and lower jaws of the corpse that have not recovered.
Therefore, the deceased was injured by vigorously moving his upper and lower jaws back and forth before he was suffocated to death, so he was suffocated to death."
After listening to this, Cheng Shi nodded secretly and wondered why he didn't notice this. It seemed that professionals were professionals.
Cheng Shi continued: "Next, I have to trouble you because we found another corpse, this time a semi-corrupted corpse."
Francis was stunned for a moment and then said: "What's going on? Before you came, my workload was very small. Now I basically never stop."
Cheng Shi smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work. This corpse should be the last one in this case."
Francis said: "Hopefully, I have been really tired these past few days. After the autopsy is completed, I will have to take a good rest for a few days."
After Francis said this, several patrolmen had already brought the body in, and Francis directed the patrolmen to place the body on the autopsy table.
He took Cheng Shi and the two of them changed into forensic clothes. After Francis prepared the tools first, he began to examine carefully.
After a long time, Francis stopped the tool in his hand and said to his assistant Fagan.
"Preliminary test results show that the deceased woman was about thirty years old. She died of poisoning and the time of death was about three months."
Francis made a prayer and then said: "The deceased was still a pregnant woman, about four months pregnant."
