Chapter 30 Can You Still Do This?
Chapter 30 Can you still do this?
Squeezing the metal strip on the mask, Zhou Ning walked towards the Bei Second Bedroom.
Two people have been living in this room in recent days, and people from the port police station have also come in. There is little point in collecting fingerprints and footprints on the ground. We still need to look at the body first.
The second bedroom in the north is not big. It only has a 1.5-meter double bed and a bedside table. There is no wardrobe or anything else. There is a small plastic bag next to the door with a few pieces of clothing, probably Song Luqing's things.
.
At this time, the mattress on the bed had been pulled to one side and stood against the wall.
There were old urine stains on the mattress, several large and small maps, exuding a strong odor, and there were grinding spots on the four corners. Considering that this was a rented house, I guess it was provided by the landlord.
The wooden boards on the bed are lattice frames, which are bed boards with gaps. Through the gaps, you can see a bundle of things stuffed near the end of the bed. You can tell that the package is a green sheet with large flowers, and an arm has slipped out of the sheet.
When I came out, my bare hands were purple-black, and the gaps between my nails were even darker.
Zhao Xinli came over at this moment and took a look from Zhou Ning's side. He had seen the Giant Viewer before, and there was no discomfort for him in such a corpse state.
"Hey, it's really stuffed under the bed. Isn't this guy tall?"
Zhou Ning shook his head. He knew what Zhao Xinli meant. The one-and-a-half-meter-wide bed was bundled horizontally, with no heads exposed on either side.
"Looking at the shape, the person was packed in a curled up state. Help me move the bed board and move the four frames around the bed, please?"
Zhao Xinli patted his chest.
"I'll find someone to do the physical work. You don't have to do anything while you wait."
He turned around and went out. After a while, he called two policemen to come in, gently lifted the bed board, and then moved away the frame of the bed, leaving the headboard intact.
Forensic Doctor Liu walked in at this moment, lying at the door and seeing the bundle on the north wall, he walked straight over.
"Stop looking, hurry up and take a picture to fix the shape."
Zhou Ning hurried forward. With Forensic Doctor Liu around, he didn't feel too flustered or hasty. Following the position of Forensic Doctor Liu's fingers, he quickly cooperated to take pictures.
After observing, the sheet wrapped around the body had its upper, middle and lower parts tied with ropes, and the arm slipped out from between the first and second knots.
Forensic doctor Liu moved the deceased's arm and found that it was not stiff. It swayed slightly, and then he waved his hand.
"The body bag is ready. I will lift the body and put it into the body bag in a while. I will cut a rope and look at the face of the deceased first."
A moment later, the body bag arrived with a flat cart underneath. Zhao Xinli squeezed over and cooperated with Zhou Ning to lift the body and place it inside the body bag. During the lifting process, there was a stinging sound near the head.
Zhou Ning put down the body and looked down. A piece of dried blood the size of a fist appeared on the floor. The area was not large. Forensic Doctor Liu was stunned by this discovery.
"I was careless. I wanted to keep it intact and take it back to the anatomy room for inspection. So Zhou Ning used scissors to cut the rope and avoid the knotted position."
Zhou Ning took the scissors and cut the rope at the neck with force. This green nylon rope didn't look thick, but it was very laborious to cut, which shows how strong this thing is.
After loosening the rope, the sheet wrapped outside had been fixed. He gently opened a corner and found that the sheet was tightly wrapped. Forensic Doctor Liu took the scissors and cut several layers of the sheet.
As the left and right sides were opened, the scene under the cloth was revealed to the two of them.
Zhou Ning took a deep breath, and Forensic Doctor Liu also shivered.
"Is it so exciting?"
I saw a plastic bag wrapped under the sheet. It was the kind of plastic bag used in supermarkets. It could be seen that there were many layers and there were newspapers inside. However, the blood stains were soaked and exposed from the gaps. Zhou Ning's heart rose.
A bad feeling.
Forensic Doctor Liu paused. Xu Dayuan was in such a hurry. After the investigation here, at least he would be given a direction so that he could start the investigation.
"Keep cutting the bag, be careful!"
Zhou Ning held up the scissors and began to cut open the plastic bag. There were three layers in total, and they were cut together. When they reached the top, they stopped. Forensic doctor Liu and Zhou Ning each pulled one side and gently opened it, revealing a face covered in blood and flesh.
Traces of cuts appeared all over the place.
One-third of the lip of the corpse has been missing, and the teeth on the left side are exposed. You can see that the first and second molars on the lower left side are metal silver denture crowns, and there are brown cigarette and tea stains in the gaps between the teeth.
The neck is wrapped with a green nylon rope, three of which have been deeply embedded in the neck flesh, and the dark brown leather-like [1] grooves are obvious.
"The face was disfigured. It seems that the wounds were caused by multiple cuts with a knife. Either an acquaintance committed the crime, or there was a deep grudge."
Zhou Ning said nothing and looked carefully at the top of the deceased's head. There were only a few gray hairs in the center of the head, and the hair around it seemed a bit long.
There are many brown spots near the ears and neck. The skin is rough and flaky and very black. The underside of the collar is very white. Could it be that the deceased worked outdoors?
While I was watching, the transparent display screen in front of me started to move.
Zhou Ning knew that as long as there was a case, the system would start to be busy, and sure enough, familiar multiple-choice questions appeared on it.
Wow, the system releases a task, please bind the person to choose the difficulty of the task.
A. Primary tasks;
B. Intermediate tasks;
C. Advanced tasks.
Zhou Ning ignored it. At the moment, his mind was on the corpse, and he thought about making a choice later.
At this moment, Forensic Doctor Liu spoke.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Measure the length of the body and pay attention to how the legs are curled up. Just have an approximate value. Once done, take the body away as soon as possible. In this state, it is impossible to check the body table here."
Zhou Ning nodded and quickly measured the length of the deceased. The approximate height was 170 centimeters. Forensic Doctor Liu recorded it and waved his hand.
"Okay, move, move, move."
Zhou Ning covered the deceased's bloody face with a plastic bag, pulled up the body bag, and Zhao Xinli pulled the cart away. Just when Zhou Ning was about to turn around, the system beeped.
Wow, warning!
Wow, warning!
Wow, warning!
If the bound person does not make a selection within the specified time, the system defaults to the highest level mission mode.
Zhou Ning paused.
Damn it, you don’t have martial ethics, how can you still do this?
The difficulty of the intermediate task last time was increased. This high-level task, do you want me to survive? I am a novice forensic doctor!
By default, the bound person has selected the advanced task and is now publishing the task.
Advanced task content:
1. Find out the cause of death of the deceased, task time is 6 hours;
2. Find out the identity of the deceased, the task time is 48 hours;
3. Find the murderer and find out the motive for the murder. The mission lasts 10 days.
Zhou Ning was speechless for a while. He didn't have the energy to curse at this moment. For a case that was so difficult last time, the task time given was 72 hours. This time, he was given ten days directly, which shows how difficult this case is.
Just as he was thinking about it, he felt a pain in his foot, and Forensic Doctor Liu stared over.
"Why are you so stupid? This is not the first scene. Apart from the blood that seeped out, there are no other traces. Let's go back for the autopsy. The face was chopped like this. It will be difficult to find the identity of the deceased."
Zhou Ning nodded and carried the survey box out of the unit building. Xu Dayuan also happened to come over.
"What did the autopsy reveal?"
Zhou Ning shook his head and frowned.
"The face of the deceased was deliberately chopped up and his face could not be seen. There is very little information available. The deceased was bald and had gray hair, and there were age spots behind the ears and neck. He was about 170 centimeters tall, and he was estimated to be over fifty years old."
Just as he said this, forensic doctor Liu came from behind, took off his gloves and mask, and motioned to Zhou Ning to turn on the camera. Zhou Ning knew what Liu Yongxin meant. He wanted Xu Dayuan to see the skin color and fingers of the deceased. This color was so representative.
.
"I found photos of the neck and hands, yes, this one. The skin on the face, neck and arms of the deceased was very dark, the kind of marks left by years of sun exposure. The nails were also very dark, and there seemed to be mud in the gaps between the fingerprints.
Detailed sampling analysis needs to be done in the autopsy room, but I speculate that the deceased may be a worker at a construction site. The first and second molars on the lower left of the deceased have metal crowns. This is rarely used now. After all, it is not as safe as porcelain, but
The price is very cheap.
Okay, there's only so much that can be analyzed. Let's go back for the autopsy first and be mentally prepared. It's not easy to find out the identity of the deceased."
Xu Dayuan nodded and put his hand on Forensic Doctor Liu's shoulder.
"You guys, please go back and give me the autopsy information as soon as possible. I have no direction at all. The community surveillance has been copied by someone. However, the wall on the north side of the community is not closed and the surveillance is not clear. I will have someone check the surrounding construction sites.
Already."
Forensic Doctor Liu sighed.
"It's difficult, just take it one step at a time!"
【1】Leather-like:
When the human body is in a living state, all organs and tissues throughout the body contain a certain amount of water. After the human body dies, the ability to absorb water is lost, the blood circulation stops, and the water lost by evaporation cannot be replenished. The water comes from the thin parts of the corpse's skin and the epidermis.
The exfoliation area evaporates rapidly, becomes locally dry, appears waxy yellow, yellowish brown or dark brown, and becomes hard in texture, which is called parchment-like transformation, also known as local ation.
Leather-like changes can make abrasions more obvious. Wounds, grooves, epidermal peeling, etc. that were injured during life will dry out soon after death and appear more clearly. Epidermal peeling that occurs shortly after death can also form similar formations.
Dryness. However, the leathery appearance after death is lighter in color and life reactions such as bleeding are absent.
