"Comrade police, I'm really not a poacher. I just bought a few animals and I haven't bought them yet. Can you please let me go?"
"That's right. If the deal doesn't work out, we shouldn't be committing a crime."
"Comrade police, please be accommodating. We promise that we will never dare to do it again next time. Give us another chance."
Several buyers were complaining there, but those who wanted to wait did not wait, but the police arrived. The last one was wearing silver handcuffs and tried to excuse himself.
The police did not buy their account, "This is an illegal acquisition, and it is also a crime! Those who commit serious crimes will still be sentenced!"
"The police will not arrest good people by mistake, nor will they let bad people go. Just wait for the notification."
Who knows if these people are repeat offenders, maybe they have bought and sold wild animals before.
According to these buyers, they made an appointment with the poachers to meet for delivery today, but when the time came, they had not seen anyone yet.
So the poachers are probably still in the mountains.
In the deep mountains and old forests, especially in such bad weather, it is not easy to search for people.
This incident even alerted the local criminal investigation brigade, which sent people to help search the mountain and catch the poachers.
The team is led by veteran police officers with rich experience.
It is winter now, and the mountains are blocked by heavy snow. If the poachers really want to hide, it will be difficult to find these two people in the vast mountains.
The policeman led a black police dog and wore a thick and warm police uniform. From a distance, he looked like a brown bear, pacing hard in the snow, forming a special landscape.
Even the most athletic person becomes a little cumbersome after wearing so many clothes and walking in the snow.
"Oh, searching like this is like looking for a needle in a haystack. How can I find it? The task is too difficult."
"Perhaps those poachers already know that we are coming and have hid in some nook and cranny for a long time. No one can find us."
"It would be fine if the weather was better, but this wind is like a knife."
As the policeman spoke, a puff of white air came out, and the north wind also poured into his throat, taking away a lot of body temperature.
A few young policemen couldn't stand the cold and harsh weather, so they complained
The old policeman was their captain, and Sun Zhenbang comforted them: "Okay, just say a few words, save your strength, and cheer up."
Fortunately, the snow has stopped now, but even so, the mountain road is still difficult to travel.
This mountain is completely undeveloped. It is in its most primitive state. The soft snow covers most of the difficult mountain roads. As long as you don't pay attention, there is basically no danger.
Everyone walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
"Woof woof woof——"
The police dog's nose kept sniffing around on the snow, and suddenly it seemed to have discovered something, and it kept barking in the northeast direction.
Sun Zhenbang was immediately overjoyed, "Maybe Erhei and the others discovered something."
He quickly loosened the rope on Erhei's collar and said, "Good boy, go and take a look for me."
Erhei and the other police dogs immediately flew out like arrows, and soon turned into a small black dot and disappeared into the vast snow.
Old horses can know the way, not to mention these trained police dogs, so Sun Zhenbang is not worried about Erhei and the others getting lost.
Soon, Erhei ran back and seemed to have something in his mouth.
When Sun Zhenbang took it off and took a look, his expression changed slightly. What a surprise, it was the fur of a wild animal.
"There is indeed something going on ahead!"
After hearing the news, everyone perked up, and under the leadership of the police dog, they soon discovered the abandoned room.
"I heard from the ranger before that there is indeed a house on the mountain, but it is abandoned. It is possible that poachers are hiding here."
The police approached cautiously and entered one of the rooms, which turned out to be the room where wild animals were previously kept. Inside, they found countless skins of precious animals and parts of their bodies.
Sun Zhenbang was a little sad. If they had discovered it earlier, maybe these animals could have escaped.
"It seems that before this, this place should have been the base camp of poachers, but where did they go?"
"Is it possible that you really received the news and ran away?"
It can be seen that they must have run in a hurry, otherwise they would not have even collected the fur. Sun Zhenbang's eyes narrowed, as if he had discovered something.
He quickly took a closer look and saw the destroyed cage. The lock was intact, but a passage was forcefully expanded between the two railings.
There were many paw prints and animal feces inside the cage. Animals should have been imprisoned here before.
"Captain, come here and take a look, there's something going on here."
Just as Sun Zhenbang was looking at it, the shouts of his teammates came from next door, and he quickly ran over.
In another room, other police officers found a burned-out bonfire and a pot in which the red oil had frozen into lumps. There were several empty wine bottles around it.
Moreover, there are fur coats hanging in the room, which should be the clothes of a poacher.
Judging from various phenomena, poachers were active here not long ago. Logically speaking, they should not run away in such a hurry. What is the reason that makes them in such a hurry.
Sun Zhenbang was lost in thought, and there was a new discovery outside.
The police dogs seemed to be digging for something in the snow, and a piece of human hand was exposed. Other policemen realized something was wrong and brought tools to help.
Soon two ice corpses were dug out.
The temperature on the mountain was already low, and with the heavy snowfall last night, the two of them were frozen into blocks of ice. Blue ice crystals were attached to the bodies, and only a rough outline could be seen clearly.
"They are already dead..."
If the guess is correct, these two people should be poachers.
This is also the reason why the poachers did not meet the buyers at the agreed time. It was not because they got wind of the situation and hid, but because they were already dead.
But why did they die for no reason?
Sun Zhenbang vaguely felt that this matter was not simple, so he quickly asked people to protect the scene, and at the same time, he had people transport the body down the mountain for an autopsy.
It is difficult to find two living people, but it is very easy to find two dead people. No one expected that the poachers would be found so quickly.
Why did he die? Could it be that there was a dispute between the two parties due to uneven distribution of the spoils? He accidentally killed the opponent?
At present, this possibility is very high.
But Sun Zhenbang thought about the destroyed cage and the wild animals inside were missing. Who released them? Could it be that there was a third person present?
Sun Zhenbang has various doubts in his mind, and he may not know anything until the autopsy results.
In order to get the report as soon as possible, Sun Zhenbang also submitted a report to his superiors and expressed his intention to participate in the autopsy.
It was originally just a poaching case, but if there were casualties, the nature would become different.
