"Let's have a video call," Cui Qishan said after taking a sip of tea, not seeming in any hurry.
Xiao Si ended the call and did as he was told. When they reconnected, he saw chunks of meat at the corner of Cui Qishan's mouth.
"This is the spot," Xiao Si said, turning the camera toward the pit in front of him.
Digging in the woods, they couldn't use machinery, only traditional tools like hoes and shovels.
Several workers took turns to work, now wiping sweat from their brows by the pit. Two police officers squatted beside two suitcases, collecting evidence and taking photographs.
"Did you only find two suitcases? Is there anything else inside?" Cui Qishan pressed.
"The ground below is hard; there shouldn't be anything buried. We're planning to collect the evidence and then expand the area a bit. If you come over now, you can catch it," Xiao Si said, shaking the camera to give Cui Qishan and the others a clearer view.
"There are no bodies, right?" Cui Qishan confirmed.
