Chapter 358 omits shocking information.
Zhang Congshan noticed Li Xuan's gaze.
He immediately put away his smile and spoke seriously.
"Director Li, the bones were previously embedded in that altar."
Li Xuan came to his senses after hearing this and looked at the ground.
There were 16 disassembled skulls placed on white cloth.
He spoke to Zhang Congshan.
"Did you find anything when you took these skulls apart?"
"Do you still have any photos from before it was demolished?"
"If you have any, please provide them to me, Director Zhang."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Congshan immediately shouted to the forensic doctor who was working nearby.
"Zi Han, bring over the photos from before the demolition."
The forensic doctor named Yang Zihan heard this.
He immediately stopped what he was doing, stood up and walked over.
At the same time, he took out a stack of photos from his pocket and handed them to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan took the photo and looked at it with a frown.
In the photo, sixteen skulls are mounted on the altar.
There are two skulls on the middle table for burning incense and paper.
But it seems there is no order.
It looks like it was just casually inlaid.
Li Xuan rubbed his hands after looking at the photo.
Then he returned the photo to Zi Han and asked.
"Apart from these photos, are there any other clues at the scene?"
Before Zi Han could speak, Zhao Jinyang, who was standing next to Zhang Congshan, spoke first.
"Director Li, we are on site to remove this altar."
"Only some of the victim's clothes were found."
"There are also burnt incense, candles and paper money."
"Apart from that there's only animal waste."
Li Xuan nodded and asked Zhao Jinyang.
"Did you find anything on the altar table?"
Zhao Jinyang shook his head and spoke after hearing this.
“The tabletop is clean.”
"We didn't find any fingerprints or hair or anything like that."
Upon hearing this, Li Xuan walked forward and looked at the altar.
He spoke to Lin Xiyue.
"Xiyue, come and take a look at this altar."
"It doesn't look to me like the main body is made of cement."
"Come and see the composition of the table."
Lin Xiyue nodded after hearing this.
He walked towards the altar with the toolbox in hand.
After Li Xuan finished speaking, he looked at the open space on the mountainside.
Then he asked Zhao Jinyang.
"Those clothes and other things shouldn't have been found at the scene, right?"
"Where were the victim's clothing found?"
Zhao Jinyang replied immediately after hearing this.
"Yes! Director Li, the clothes were all found when we searched the mountain."
"It's in a cave about 200 meters from here."
Li Xuan nodded and said after hearing this.
"Take me over there and have a look."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jinyang immediately led the way.
When everyone arrived at the cave where the victim's clothes were found.
This is a cave dug naturally.
There is a black area on the top of the cave that is particularly conspicuous among the yellow.
The entire cave has a falling structure.
There is also a flowing underground river at the bottom.
The water is about 60 centimeters deep but you can see the bottom.
The water flows continuously to the deeper river channel.
Li Xuan walked to the river and looked towards the dark direction.
With his night vision, he looked for a while and then looked away.
Because nothing abnormal was found.
"Director Li!"
At this moment, a crisp sound was heard from the surface of the cave.
Upon hearing this, Li Xuan immediately walked up.
It was Lin Xiyue calling Li Xuan.
She spoke to Li Xuan.
"Director Li, I've already seen the altar."
"If I'm not mistaken."
"The entire altar is made of only two materials."
Li Xuan asked curiously after hearing this.
"Which two materials?"
Lin Xiyue spoke with a serious expression.
"The altar is made of ashes mixed with adhesive."
Before Li Xuan could speak, Zhang Congshan behind him exclaimed.
"What did you say? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
The entire altar is about 1.6 meters high and the table top has a diameter of 2 meters.
If there is no detection error.
So how many people’s ashes are needed to make this altar?
When Li Xuan heard the result, he spoke with a serious face.
"If there are really only these two materials."
"I'm afraid this must be the ashes of at least a hundred people."
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of gasps from the side.
"hiss!"
"........."
16 skulls are enough to shock this third-tier city.
Now tell them that there are ashes of nearly a hundred people?
It would be easy to deal with if the ashes were stolen.
If hundreds of lives were lost...
Li Xuan spoke to Lin Xiyue.
"Get to work! This is probably a big deal."
"The entire altar was moved back and testing revealed multiple people's ashes inside."
"The skull will not undergo further testing."
Lin Xiyue shouted in a deep voice upon hearing this.
"Yes! Director Li!"
Then Li Xuan's gaze stopped on Zhang Congshan and he spoke.
"Director Zhang, we will take over this case now."
"I hope your city bureau will fully cooperate with us in solving the case."
Zhang Congshan spoke immediately after hearing this.
"No problem, Director Li!"
“Everyone in the city’s bureau fully cooperated with the Inspection Department’s investigation.”
"Also, I asked Zhao Jinyang to follow the comrades from the Inspection Department directly."
"If there is any problem, he can help coordinate and solve it in the first place."
Zhao Jinyang, who was standing nearby, shouted excitedly when he heard this.
"Yes! Director Zhang!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
He knew this was a rare opportunity!
Although Li Xuan is young, his reputation has already spread throughout the entire system.
Even an old detective who has been working for decades came.
I'm afraid I wouldn't dare to say that I have more experience in handling cases than Li Xuan.
You know, this person is truly a tough guy!
As Li Xuan's orders were issued one after another.
Everyone also started to take action.
Now all 16 skulls and 1.6 altars have been taken back to the Forensic Center.
Other clothes, incense, candles, and paper money were also not spared.
All of them were taken back for testing.
See if you can find any new clues there.
...........
In the office of the director of the Chang'an Municipal Bureau.
Zhang Congshan personally brewed a cup of tea and placed it in front of Li Xuan.
He spoke after taking a sip of tea.
"Director Li, what are your thoughts on this case now?"
"I always feel that the human skull sacrifice is like the feudal ideology of the past."
"I'm afraid it's a problem left over from the last century."
Li Xuan nodded and spoke after hearing this.
"I think it's somewhat related."
"But the details will only be confirmed once their identities and time of death are revealed."
After all, the time of death can be said to be the basis of the entire case.
If there is no time of death, there is no time of crime.
Then not knowing the time of the crime is like being blind.
I don't even know when the case happened.
Then we can only wait for the needle in the mountain.
The scene had obviously been carefully cleaned.
Otherwise, how could we not find anything else in such a large area?
The second question is how did the top of the cave get so dark?
Li Xuan has also made up his mind to conduct a detailed mountain search again.
Otherwise, we can only wait for the time of Lin Xiyue's death.
But obviously waiting is not Li Xuan's style.
