The parents who followed were a couple, and they were already crying and rushed forward. They had already recognized that it was their daughter Yinchai.

Qiu Wuhen grabbed the two of them and said, "Don't destroy the scene!"

The parents stopped, wailed, and called their daughter's name, but the woman didn't move.

Qiu Wuhen first checked the traces around the cave. Except for the footprints entering the cave, there were no other footprints or traces. And only the footprints from this trip did not come out.

He checked the footprints on the ground, and there were no traces of the footprints that were meant to cover up when walking backwards.

He extracted the footprints by touching them with his hands, then avoided the footprints and went around into the cave.

The cave is shallow, about the size of half a room, with dirt and stones on the ground, and a few weeds growing there. There is snow covering the edge of the cave entrance, but not inside.

Qiu Wuhen squatted down and looked at the woman. There were no signs of injury on her body, and her arms were not injured either.

He wanted to turn the body over, but suddenly he found that the body was still soft!

He couldn't help being surprised and delighted, and quickly felt the pulse with his hands, but he couldn't feel it. He immediately lay down and put his ear to his chest to listen, and he could still vaguely hear the sound of his heart.

Yinchai is not dead!

He hurriedly pulled all the clothes nearby and piled them on her, and shouted to Qian Jinzhi outside the cave: "Come in quickly, she is not dead yet."

Qian Jinzhi ran in quickly, hurriedly put the clothes on the floor on Yinchai again, held her in his arms, and used her body temperature to warm her.

Yinchai's parents were overjoyed. Her father took off his cotton-padded jacket and threw it in for Qian Jinzhi. He did not dare to come in for fear of damaging the traces.

They are from a pretty good family, and they wear silk-cotton jackets, which keep them warm. Yinchai's clothes are also quite warm. An extra layer of clothes would be even better.

Qiu Wuhen said: "We must warm her up immediately and let her recover, otherwise she will freeze to death. Her body temperature is already extremely low."

When I touched the body just now, it was like touching ice and snow. But Yinchai's vitality is extremely tenacious, and he is not dead yet and can persist until now.

Qiu Wuhen immediately searched the cave and checked for traces of the cave, but there were no suspicious traces in the cave.

He asked the policeman and Yinchai's mother and father to quickly find some firewood and light a fire to keep warm. At the same time, he reminded Qian Jinzhi not to bake Yinchai near the fire, but to put her back to the fire, so that the surrounding temperature could rise slowly, and she would gradually recover.

body temperature.

If it is too fast, it will be extremely dangerous to suddenly encounter high fever when the body temperature is extremely low.

Qian Jinzhi nodded and said: "I know, I have rescued many patients with frostbite. It is best to bathe her with cold water first. When she returns to the temperature of the cold water, she can be wrapped in a quilt and put into the room slowly.

Let her temperature rise and she cannot drink hot water. I know all this."

Qiu Wuhen nodded and said: "Okay, you take care of her here, try to get her to regain consciousness as soon as possible, and tell us what happened? I'll go find the other mysterious person."

Before Qiu Wuhen left, he extracted Yinchai's palm fingerprints and a piece of hair, and also extracted her footprints.

He took several detectives back to the original route and searched along another trail.

At this time, they saw the police officers led by Ke Captou returning. Ke Captou said to him: "Mr. Qiu Qiu, the footprints disappeared when they reached the cliff. We surrounded the cliff and found no body at the bottom.

I didn’t see anyone on the mountain wall either. It’s strange that the person is missing.”

"Take me to see it!"

Qiu Wuhen followed them to the cliff. The footprints extended all the way here. The cliff was more than ten feet high, and the footprints disappeared at the end of the cliff. The man seemed to have jumped off the cliff.

Qiu Wuhen first picked up the footprints on the ground with his hands and compared them with other people at the scene. None of them matched, which showed that this line of footprints did not belong to any of them.

This proves that there is one person besides the seven of them.

What does this person do?

Qiu Wuhen walked around from the side of the cliff and reached the bottom.

Capt. Ke said: "We thought the man had jumped or fallen. We searched below, but we didn't see the body, and there were no signs of anything falling. Moreover, the mountain wall was very smooth, and there were no caves or anything like that. And

The mountain wall is not big, so where did he go?

Qiu Wuhen looked at it, pointed to both sides and said, "Have you searched both sides?"

"We searched and found nothing. There are no footprints on both sides."

"We found a survivor from the other side, the other woman named Yinchai. She is still alive, but has not yet regained consciousness. Because her body temperature is very low, she may die at any time. She is now over there in the cave.

We'll go back there immediately, and you leave two detectives nearby to search for this person again. This person is also very important. Since he appears here, he might know some truth."

Captou Ke immediately left two agents to search nearby, and the rest followed Qiu Wuhen back to the cave.

In the cave, Yinchai's breathing became slightly stronger, but his eyes were still closed.

Qiu Wuhen said: "We can't stay here, it will get dark soon, and there seems to be a snowstorm."

Capt. Ke said: "What should we do now?"

Qiu Wuhen said: "Well, you make a stretcher right away, wrap her in clothes and carry her to the road below, then you can put her on the carriage and transport her back."

Capt. Ke quickly asked the captor to cut branches to make a stretcher.

Qian Jinzhi waved Qiu Wuhen over and said, "I found that Miss Yinchai has a strange scar on her inner thigh. It's about the size of a thumb and it's rose-colored."

Qiu Wuhen said: "Let me see."

Qian Jinzhi shook his head and said, "No, my father is here. How do you think my daughter's thighs look like?"

"This is an investigation."

"It's not possible to investigate the case. I'm worried that people will sue you. Are you just a criminal master? It's better not to get into trouble."

Qiu Wuhen nodded and said, "Then can you draw it?"

"I can't draw, and I don't know how to draw. Why don't you go back first? After I go back, I'll talk to Yinchai, or discuss it with her mother, and get her mother's permission before I let you see it. After all, it's just the inner thigh.

It’s not a very private place, and it’s for investigation, but we still need to get the consent of Yinchai’s family.”

Qiu Wuhen thought about it and agreed.

The stretcher was soon ready. Qian Jinzhi picked up Yinchai and put her on the stretcher. Then she wrapped her in clothes and tied her tightly with ropes. Because the road down the mountain was bumpy, she was afraid that she would fall off the stretcher.

.

Carrying the people and getting ready to leave, Qiu Wuhen said to Ke Captou and the others: "You guys go back first. I want to search the area again to find other clues. Because there is going to be a snowstorm soon, and I am worried about the heavy rain coming, so I put everything together."

The traces are all covered, and you can’t find them again if you try to look for them. After you take these people back, it’s best to leave their bodies in the Yamen first. When I come back, you can try your best to persuade them to agree to the autopsy, if necessary.

Let the magistrate come forward."

"Finding the truth is the key. This case obviously involves homicide. What happened and what role each person played in the murder must be investigated clearly. This is a major murder case. The body will be taken away without investigation.
