Chapter 787 - 730 Overthrow
The corpse had to be transported down from the hillside, which would take some time. Fortunately, the officers from Zhengguang Bureau were experienced and quickly dispatched people to take over the respective tasks.
Amid the hustle and bustle, Xu Taining, dressed in a white shirt, also came by car to take a look.
"Can the cases be combined?" Xu Taining stopped Jiang Yuan at the foot of the slope and asked as soon as they met.
His primary objective and task were still the inspection work at hand.
Jiang Yuan shook his head, "There’s no reason to combine the cases for now."
"Then this is an unrelated, isolated incident?" Xu Taining said.
Jiang Yuan replied, "The time of death was within the last three months, quite possibly only seventy or so days ago, because the killer wrapped the body in a unique way, I haven’t unwrapped and inspected the body parts carefully. Follow-up reports from the autopsy may not be available until tomorrow or the day after."
Liu Jinghui, seeing Xu Taining, also came over to join the conversation, "Auditing the parts of three wrapped corpses must be more troublesome than dealing with a whole body, right?"
"Definitely, especially if the level of decomposition is high. If the autopsy doesn’t yield enough information, we may even have to boil the remains to examine the bones."
