The man who reported the crime rented the prefabricated unit at the site to store tools. When he went to pick up the tools this afternoon, he found that the windows, doors and door locks were covered with duct tape and it was difficult to open the door. He said he smelled rotting flesh 100 feet away from the building. After he entered the house, he rummaged through the items, and was surprised to see someone lying on the ground and the body was black and smelly. A villager pointed out to the police that there was a motorcycle not belonging to the villagers in a nearby open space, and it had been parked for more than 10 days. It is unknown whether the deceased owned it.
