National Forensic Doctor

Chapter 476 Case Filing

Xishan, Shiting County.

The leafy forest is mainly concentrated on the top of the mountain, and starts to become bald from the middle of the mountain.

There are countless tombstones here, and on some early tombstones, you can also see epitaphs written by the deceased or friends.

The rich family surnamed Shi did not produce any famous people who have been passed down to this day, but it has been passed down from generation to generation, and there are many people who can read and write, and there are also a lot of various ancient books and documents left in Shiting County.

However, after hundreds of years of settlement, unmanaged cemeteries cannot spread indefinitely. Some early cemeteries were robbed one after another.

Fortunately, the locals generally do not have a tradition of grand burials. The tombs are not large and there are few accompanying burials. Most of them are mainly reading materials and utensils used by the owner during his lifetime. Occasionally, you can find an inkstone and a few porcelain from folk kilns, which is a good harvest.

Low income is the main reason why there are fewer tomb robbers. Another reason is that people surnamed Shi still live very densely and still arrange the tombs of their elders on the West Mountain. Villagers who come and go occasionally, if they encounter tomb robbers, they will go there as usual. Beaten to death.

Looking at these dense tombstones and tomb bags, the two trace examiners and forensic doctors from Shiting County were a little confused.

"There are so many, how can we find them?" Wei Qun was actually not willing to do this job. He was already very tired from running outdoors to pick up corpses. Jiang Yuan proposed a theory and asked everyone to work hard to confirm it. This was too stupid and tiring. .

Naturally, Jiang Yuan would not spoil him, so he only said: "Look for obvious robbery holes first. If you find them, mark them and write down their locations on the map. Later, we will find someone who specializes in this area and come over to have a look."

Heng Jian, who was standing next to him, frowned as he listened: "There must be tens of thousands of tombs here, and many of them are so flat that they can't be seen. How long will it take to look at them one by one?"

"There are tens of thousands of tombs, it will only take a few days to see them." Jiang Yuan did not give Wolong Fengxia any face. Checking tens of thousands of graves is not easier than checking thousands of people. At the very least, you don't have to make interrogation records for it.

Jiang Yuan didn't think of stuffing the body into the tomb just because of his brain twitch.

First of all, the victim's death was tragic and direct. It did not look like manslaughter in the style of passion killing, but more like being killed after a long beating. And the location of the beating is very particular.

And when it comes to killing, the killing techniques are not like those of a novice. This feeling is difficult to describe in the form of a report, but if you see more corpses, you can naturally distinguish them. It's like the difference between an expert butcher killing a pig and a novice butcher killing a pig. The former has far less hesitation and lag, while the latter often makes unusual mistakes.

To put it simply, when you hit someone, you act professionally, and when you kill someone, you act professionally. It's a bit like professional fish killing. When we talk about removing the fish's scales, it means simply removing the scales, and when we talk about bleeding, it means simply bleeding.

Finally, the mode of burying corpses and digging holes for robbery are both direct and labor-saving modes. Needless to say, these are obviously experienced behaviors.

Coupled with the act of burying the corpse in the original grave, from Jiang Yuan's understanding, the entire process and the method of killing were quite professional.

Profession requires experience.

The professionalism of killing means that more than one person has died.

Therefore, when Jiang Yuan saw this case, he did not let it go easily.

As for the trace examination in Shiting County and the thoughts of the forensic doctors, in Jiang Yuan's eyes, it was simply insignificant.

A few people really had nothing to do.

If Bai Jian and others still had a little distrust of Jiang Yuan when Jiang Yuan first arrived, now they are just unconvinced and embarrassed, but their trust level is definitely full.

The thoughts of the Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks, whether they are tired or not, will never be taken into consideration by the leaders.

"Wang Chuanxing, you will accompany us, mainly members of the special team." Jiang Yuan's own police officers also spread out all over the mountains and plains.

Everyone first marked the obvious burglary holes. At the end of the day, hundreds of them were marked.

The next day.

Li Xiang, an expert invited by Liu Jinghui from the provincial department, came to the scene.

Liu Jinghui introduced to Jiang Yuan and others: "Li Xiang is an expert in investigating theft and excavation of ancient tombs in our province. There are dozens of first-class fossils recovered..."

Li Xiang looked like he was 50 years old. While listening to Liu Jinghui's introduction, he shook hands with him. The two of them shook their hands for a long time.

After Liu Jinghui finished his introduction, Li Xiang said with a smile: "I didn't learn any skills and became an expert on ancient tombs. I just encountered such cases several times. In the future, if the provincial department has similar projects, they will be willing to contact me... …”

Many experts are formed in this way. Jiang Yuan smiled and said: "This case is coming to you for the same reason."

With that said, Jiang Yuan gave Li Xiang a brief introduction to the case.

Li Xiang listened very seriously. After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he said, "So, our target is probably a serial murder case?"

"Probably not." Jiang Yuan shook his head and said: "Those who dump the corpses are the ones who dump the corpses, and those who kill are the ones who kill. Judging from the condition of the corpses we saw, it is more likely that they were driven by profit."

"How do you tell this?" Li Xiang worked on a lot of cases on weekdays, and such cases were rarely encountered.

Jiang Yuan thought about it and described it: "Profit-motivated killing, especially if you kill a lot, is relatively light in emotion and just achieves the goal. This kind of killing is more common among bandits. Regardless of whether they are treacherous or treacherous, their goals are very strong, and achieving their goals is the first priority."

"Not a serial killer?"

"Serial killers themselves are emotionally driven, so if killing is his purpose, the murderer's emotions will usually be reflected on the corpse..."

Jiang Yuan gave a brief explanation, but did not explain in detail how the specific emotions and other contents could be seen from the corpse.

Li Xiang actually didn't care very much. After satisfying his curiosity, he said: "I have to say that we need to have some special ideas when looking for tombs."

He read the files and thought about it on the way. Now when he talked about the parts he was good at, he couldn't help but put a smile on his face and said: "I see that you have marked a lot of holes. To be honest, it looks like this If you do it, it’s not very useful and it’s not very efficient.”

"Hey, why?" Jiang Yuan was surprised.

"Because your goal is to see if there are recent corpses in the robbery cave. This is difficult to verify. We may have to send someone down to check, or we can dig it out again. Not to mention the workload, the speed will definitely be very slow. When the time comes, It scared all the suspects away.”

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement and asked, "What's your solution?"

"I suggest you search to see if there are any tombs where the holes were robbed and then filled back up." Li Xiang said, "The Qing Dynasty tomb where the victim's body was found was a complete tomb, and no holes were robbed, right?"

Jiang Yuan thought about it and realized that this was really the case.

"They bury corpses to hide them, so they backfill the holes. But if it's really a tomb robber, it's not a particularly big tomb, and it's impossible for the robbers to backfill the hole. So, compared to a tomb with an open hole, Tombs that have been filled with robber holes are more likely to have something inside." Li Xiang finished speaking in one breath, and then added: "Of course, it would be better for me to see it on the spot. Some robber holes were backfilled early. That was in the past. matter."

Jiang Yuan agreed immediately and immediately took the people and headed to Xishan again.

Li Xiang took the lead and continued to sweep through the tombs one by one.

The Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks from Shiting County followed and no longer dared to say that there were too many tombs.

After a while, Li Xiang found a backfilled tomb, climbed up and looked into the distance, and said, "How about taking a look inside here first?"

Liu Jinghui could tell at a glance that he had reservations and immediately asked, "What did you see?"

"This side is closer to the road. You see, the car parked on the side and raised a slope, and here it is." Li Xiang muttered a few words and said, "I was just thinking, how can something as heavy as a corpse be carried up the mountain?" It’s definitely not realistic to lift it inside.”

"It makes sense." Liu Jinghui said.

"If there is something in the tomb, it makes sense. If it doesn't, it doesn't make sense." Li Xiang laughed and then directed the engineering vehicles and personnel to go into battle.

Two hours later.

A large hole was dug into this tomb that was built more than a hundred years ago, and the two corpses inside were exposed.

One body was lying peacefully in the coffin, but the other body was scattered on the ground.

Jiang Yuan immediately stepped forward and called Huang Qiangmin with a simple forensic greeting.

Huang Qiangmin climbed up in one go. After listening briefly to Jiang Yuan's description, he became excited: "Although we haven't continued to solve the case, it would be good to open a few more cases for Captain Bai."
