life as a police officer in america

Compared with Kaledin, Helene is much more professional and outstanding. After all, Kaledin's forensic technology has been in disuse for many years.

Helene put on gloves and began the autopsy, with Wang Dengming and Satsuma assisting.

The corpse was a male, between the ages of 25 and 28, 1.75 meters tall, thin, and had spots on his body. The time of death was about four days ago, that is, ninety-six hours. The chest of the deceased,

The head and arms were hit with a stiff blunt object, and the skull was dented. It was initially suspected that the murder weapon was a hammer...

There were obvious marks on the neck of the deceased that had been stretched out by a rope, the fingernails had been turned out with a sharp instrument, and the tongue of the deceased had been cut out....

Satsuma couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Poor child, who do you have such a deep hatred for to make you like this?"

Judging from the performance, this is obviously a case of torture and murder, and the murderer's methods are very cruel.

Is this the first scene? Wang Dengming scratched his head. Snow covered the ground and nothing could be seen.

He observed the surrounding terrain and asked Satsuma: "What do you think?"

"Head, our shipment is a bit late. Unless we wait for the snow to melt, we can better determine whether this is the first murder scene. My guess is that this is not the first murder scene. The murderer may have tortured the deceased to death.

, just dumped the body here."

The snow, the heavy snow, not only showed no sign of stopping, but also fell even harder.

"Heleni, what do you think?"

"Sheriff, I need to bring the body back for an autopsy before I can draw a final conclusion."

Satsuma looked towards the town and asked the two security guards who were shivering from the cold: "Do you have a morgue here?"

One of the security guards said: "We don't even have large hospitals here, just some private clinics. There is no morgue. In the past, when people from the county police station investigated cases, they would transport the corpses back to the county. If it was too remote,

In mountainous areas, direct on-site excavation.

Wang Dengming raised his eyebrows and asked: "On-site autopsy?"

"Yes."

Wang Dengming asked Helene: "Can you do it?"

Helene hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay, but I've never done it like this before. I usually do it in the dissection room. The dissection room is fully equipped with inspection equipment. It feels weird to dissect in this wasteland."

Another security guard said: "Maybe you can park in that abandoned refinery. It's cooking oil. People from the county police station used to do it. They were dissecting it there many years ago."

"where?"

"We'll take you there."

The two security guards brought a simple stretcher, a medical stretcher. They seemed to be very skilled as they lifted the body and left. To be honest, it is too cold here, the cold wind is biting, chilling to the bones.

The oil refinery was about three kilometers away from the incident. Two security guards carried the body into a small container truck, leading the way quickly, with police cars following behind.

After a while, the police car drove into the oil refinery.

The place was overgrown with weeds, and the machines had long been rusty and dilapidated. Wang Dengming placed the body on a metal platform that was about to collapse, and at the same time, he lit a fire next to it.

Satsuma said: "Boss, are you sure you want to do the dissection here?"

"They may not be happy to send it to the county's autopsy room, but I think it will be too much for us to return to our town. Aren't you afraid of overturning the car in such heavy snow?"

Helene said: "What the Sheriff said makes sense. I'll try everything. The tools I brought are still complete."

"Then let's get started."

Helene took action and began to dissect. Wang Dengming and Satsuma were still assistants. The weather was cold and the body did not rot much, so the smell was not too strong. Both Satsuma and Wang Dengming could tolerate it, but Helene was the most natural, as if she could not smell anything.

It doesn't smell the same.

The autopsy was not long, but after Helene examined the lungs and chest of the deceased, she cut open his stomach, and they made a major discovery.

First, half of a foot appeared that had not been completely melted. It looked like a duck's foot. Then, a finger was found. It was a human finger. Although it was corroded and looked ugly, Wang Dengming could recognize it. It was a human finger.

, What surprised Wang Dengming the most was that on that finger, there was a ring, a diamond ring, and the diamond was the biggest one.

Holy shit!

Not to mention Satsuma, Heleni was surprised, and even Wang Dengming found it magical.

Helene took off the ring, carefully put it into the evidence bag, and sent it to Wang Dengming. She said: "Chief, my guess is that this finger and this ring belong to the murderer. In addition, this thing

, yes, it’s duck feet, which the deceased ate about twenty minutes ago before he died.”

Americans generally don't eat duck feet, chicken feet, etc. How can this person eat duck feet?

Wang Dengming said: "You Americans don't eat duck feet, but we Chinese like to eat them. It's delicious."

A security guard said: "Who said we Americans don't eat duck feet? I like to eat it, and I eat a lot. There is a Chinese restaurant in the town, and the duck feet they make are really exciting."

Wang Dengming was happy. Maybe they could find some clues in that Chinese restaurant.

The body was handed over to two security guards. Wang Dengming didn't go anywhere. He went directly to the Chinese restaurant. It happened to be lunch time. Satsuma couldn't eat anything. The dissection just made him want to vomit, and he almost vomited it out.

.

This Chinese restaurant in the town is called Sheraton Restaurant. It is quite small, with only one floor. When Wang Dengming entered, there were many customers, and the signature dish here is braised duck feet.

So many foodies?

Wang Dengming was not in a hurry. He would eat first and wait until he was full. He first ordered a dish of braised duck feet.

After the duck paws arrived, the Satsuma let out a loud cry and ran outside to vomit. It seemed that he didn't want to eat at noon today.

Helene picked up half of the duck's paw with a knife and fork and said, "The cutter here also cut half of the duck's paw."

"That further shows that the deceased had most likely eaten duck feet here before he died."

"The problem is that people's digestion ability is very strong, but the duck paw bones are still in his stomach. If the deceased had eaten the duck paws here and then went to the woods, the time would not match and they would have been digested long ago.

"

Wang Dengming said: "What if someone else packed it back?"

Helene nodded and said, "That's possible. Sheriff, is this food edible?"

Wang Dengming directly stuffed the duck paw into his mouth and kept saying, "It's delicious, it's delicious, it's great! The duck paw is indeed very good. It's so beautiful that Wang Dengming wants to cry. How long has it been since he's eaten such good food?"

Hometown food!

One word, like!

Encouraged by Wang Dengming and the surrounding diners, Helene tried it. Suddenly, she exclaimed: "This is incredible, great!"

A plate of duck feet was quickly consumed by the two of them, and Satsuma just stared at them dumbly as they ate.

When the customers in the store were almost gone, Wang Dengming called the boss, a southern man, who spoke English with a Sichuan accent.

When Wang Dengming came in, the boss noticed him.

"Officer, what's going on?"

"Are you from Sichuan?

The boss with a crew cut suddenly smiled brightly and said, "Brother, are you Chinese too?"

"certainly."

"What's up?"

"It's a little trivial."

Wang Dengming asked Helene to take out the ring and said, "Have you ever seen a ring like this?"

The boss looked at the ring in the evidence bag, carefully distinguished it, and finally said: "Brother, I haven't seen it before."

Wang Dengming asked again: "Who ate at your place four days ago?"

"Four days ago, many people came here to eat."

"Did anyone pack it up and leave?"

"I packed them away four days ago. If I think about it, there are quite a few of them."

"That's good, think carefully about who they are."

"Brother, what happened?"

Wang Dengming briefly explained the matter, and then said: "The deceased, I suspected that he had eaten the duck feet here, so I came over to ask."

The little flat-headed boss tried hard to recall. At this time, the boss's wife came over, a short and plump woman. She saw her husband chatting with the police and thought something was wrong, so she came over to ask.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous...we are just investigating something."

Wang Dengming spoke in Mandarin. When the landlady heard this, she felt friendly and her tension immediately disappeared. After she learned about the case, she stared at the ring, thought for a moment, and said, "I remembered, there is a person."

The customer, when he paid the bill, seemed to be wearing such a ring on his hand, but I can't be sure."

Wang Dengming and others immediately became energetic.

After detailed inquiries, what time did the person who came to buy duck paws come and what time did he look like? According to the boss lady's description, Heleni quickly drew something on a piece of paper. When the boss lady finished speaking, Helen

Ni handed over the paper in her hand and asked: "Does it look like this person?"

When the lady boss saw it, she was immediately surprised and said: "Yes, he looks very much like that person from that day!"

Only then did Wang Dengming realize that Helene was actually good at finding people through portraits. He couldn't help but raise his thumbs.

With the portrait in hand, Wang Dengming was eager to find a camera. There was no camera in front of the restaurant, and there were few cameras in the entire town. However, the restaurant was on one of the busiest sections of the town. There was a crossroads here, and there were two cameras at the crossroads.

No matter which direction the diners come from, the camera can capture them.

"Satsuma. Didn't you say it's not a good sign? Look, what a good sign."

Wang Dengming expressed his gratitude to the couple in the restaurant and left his phone number and contact information. If this town was close to Alaska, Wang Dengming would definitely pack the food every day.

After leaving the restaurant, Wang Dengming immediately called for Xu Beng. He had to check the surveillance cameras.

After Xu Beng arrived, he didn't expect that these young policemen would find clues in one morning. They were surprised and suspicious at the same time.

Wang Dengming didn't want to talk to him. What he wanted was the surveillance footage.

Xu Beng came forward, and soon the surveillance video came out. Based on the time period provided by the restaurant couple and Helene's portrait, they found the suspect, a short and stocky young man wearing a red jacket and black leather pants.

, but whether he is wearing a ring on his hand, the surveillance video is far away and the angle is not good, so we cannot be sure whether he is wearing a ring on his finger.

Wang Dengming asked: "Do you know this person?"

Xu Bang still shook his head.
