National Forensic Doctor

early morning.

The chirping birds would show off how many insects they caught, how good their health was, and how powerful they were, over and over again without stopping.

Jiang Yuan, who was awakened by the chirping of birds, was lying on the bed, a little too lazy to get up.

The environment in Beijing is unexpectedly close to nature. There is a park next to the community with forests, water, and resident birds. Looking out from the bedroom window, it is mostly green. Even people who don’t care about urban construction can still feel that funds are burning...

In the kitchen, the chefs sent from Ningtai were busy making breakfast.

The freshly ground soy milk, tofu and tofu puffs are all bought from outside. The fried dough sticks are freshly fried. They use No. 95 soybean oil to make the fried dough sticks crispy and have a pure northern taste. If it is a Southern-style fried dough stick, the inner core will be a little soft and glutinous, more like dipping it in soy sauce and serving soup.

In addition, the gourd-like fried dough sticks from the Central Plains region also have a unique flavor, especially when paired with spicy spicy soup. It is a breakfast that has eaten most of the delicious food in a province.

Mu Zhiyang, Liu Jinghui and others also walked out of the bedroom one after another.

The houses that Jiangfu Town bought in the early years were calculated according to the housing area of ​​a country person. Sometimes, in order not to be scolded as a country bumpkin by the people in the capital, he would deliberately buy a bigger one. For the so-called vanity, the demolition households Nature is inevitable.

As a result, the size of the house Jiang Yuan lives in now is not suitable for living alone. If you live alone, the wind blowing through the living room will make a whistling sound at night.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan simply provided the rooms other than the master bedroom as dormitories for team members. There was no charge or anything. It was first come, first served, and anyone who wanted to live with them could live together.

Compared with the real dormitories provided by the Zhengguang Bureau, the conditions here are naturally much better, especially the chefs who provide three meals a day and late night snacks, and a whole cold room that supplies food around the clock, which is enough for the criminal police to break their legs. Can't even lose weight.

"What are you doing today?" Liu Jinghui sat across from Jiang Yuan and skillfully began to pour himself milk, soy milk, and yogurt.

"Can you take a rest in the morning? If you have nothing to do in the afternoon, let's go to the Zhengguang Bureau to pick a case together?" Jiang Yuan recalled, "When I looked at it last time, there were still a few cases that were promising. If you can't find the right one, Let’s start with the recent backlog.”

"Well, we can't let them designate cases. What if we find a very difficult case from decades ago? We can't solve the case in vain. You have to stick to the bottom line!" Liu Jinghui is very thoughtful.

Jiang Yuan nodded with a "hmm", took a fried dough stick, and poured it into the soy milk bowl. The fried dough stick was drowned and he drank several mouthfuls of soy milk in one go.

After the meal, as soon as Mu Zhiyang turned on the PS5, Tao Lu's phone clicked.

"Tao Zhi, is there a case?" Jiang Yuan answered the phone and asked directly.

Tao Lu said "Yes" and said, "Are you willing to participate in the current case?"

"Did that just happen?"

"Yes. Now it seems that it was an abnormal death, but because of the identity of the deceased, a comprehensive investigation must be conducted as a homicide. The body must also be fully dissected." The reason why Tao Lu specifically explained is that no matter what Whether it is an abnormal death or a homicide, the case requires a comprehensive autopsy by a forensic doctor. If Jiang Yuan participates, this will be Jiang Yuan's life.

Jiang Yuan only said: "I'll tell Political Commissar Huang that if possible, I will participate."

"Lao Huang said it to you. If you agree here, you will be the chief forensic officer." Tao Lu said.

Jiang Yuan agreed.

After a little preparation, Huang Qiangmin's phone call came before he went out.

The two communicated for a while, and then Huang Qiangmin said: "It shouldn't be a special case. I heard what Tao Zhi said, but the identity of the deceased is rather special. Even if it is an abnormal death, it should be investigated as a homicide. In addition, it is also a superior case. The leader requires that the best people be hired...so you are now the best forensic doctor in the Zhengguang Bureau!"

Huang Qiangmin said happily.

The first and second ones have completely different statuses and... prices. If it is proven that Jiang Yuan is the best forensic doctor in Zhengguang Bureau, or even the best forensic doctor in Beijing Bureau, then the treatment should obviously be different.

Huang Qiangmin said specifically: "To show our respect, you will bring all the people from the special case backlog team with you. Anyway, if you are idle, you will be idle."

So, Liu Jinghui, a member of Jiangyuan's special case team, set off in five brand-new Beijing-branded cars.

PolyU family home.

In a small circle of gardens adjacent to the school gate, there are dozens of small two-story houses.

The residence is relatively early, at least forty or fifty years old. The total area is not large, but it has an independent courtyard, which is quiet and natural.

At this time, the yard was filled with police officers.

Tao Lu arrived earlier than Jiang Yuan. He didn't expect Jiang Yuan to come with the whole team. He felt respected but also a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly said: "We don't need to go into battle all at once. Let's check the body first, and then take it back for a detailed autopsy."

Having said that, Tao Lu added: "At present, there are no signs of homicide. You should also pay attention when investigating...respect the deceased and take care of the emotions of the deceased's family."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan had no objection to this. He changed his clothes, put on shoes, a hood and a mask, then put on gloves and entered the venue.

Liu Sheng's team was still in charge of the investigation this time. The criminal police team members were already familiar with Jiang Yuan. They smiled friendly when they met and guided Jiang Yuan to the right place.

There were slightly fewer people in the room, but from the living room to the bedroom, there were seven or eight people, either taking photos or collecting evidence, busy doing things.

Liu Sheng followed Jiang Yuan closely and whispered: "The deceased Zhou Xiangyang was a professor at PolyU. He was 72 years old. He had a series of titles. According to them, he was an associate academician. At such an old age, he was still employed at the school. Responsible for major national projects and so on. After the incident, several leaders called and requested detailed investigation."

Liu Sheng paused for a moment. Seeing that Jiang Yuan's expression was as usual, he continued: "Similar to the previous case, our case also needs to be videotaped throughout. We must pay attention to all aspects."

Generally speaking, the law enforcement recorders carried by police officers on duty are sufficient. However, with the increasing demands from various aspects, separate cameras are also beneficial. At least they can protect the police themselves.

Liu Sheng worked in the Beijing Bureau and had long been "accustomed to enforcing the law under cameras" in accordance with the requirements of the ministry. At this moment, he also reminded Jiang Yuan and continued: "After the death of the deceased's wife, he basically lived alone, and the children were invited A nanny who doesn't live at home, cleans and cooks, and has a key to the door. I got here at 10 o'clock this morning and found that the old man was dead..."

The body was in the bedroom on the first floor.

The corpse was lying on its back on the bed. There was vomit on both sides and under the bed. Dark red secretions were flowing out of the corners of the mouth. The nails on both hands were purple. In forensic terms, the nail beds were cyanotic...

Standing next to the bed was forensic doctor Zhan Kun, who had come earlier. He only did some basic physical examination, took the rectal temperature, etc., and then took a lot of photos.

He also knew that the forensic doctor in charge today was Jiang Yuan. The two of them had worked together on several corpses at the autopsy center. To be precise, Zhan Guan had served Jiang Yuan and dissected several corpses. He had already understood that Jiang Yuan was the boss. template.

But he had never done on-site investigation work with Jiang Yuan, and he didn't know what the boss's habits and patterns were, so he was on guard.

"Captain Zhan, let's cooperate today." Jiang Yuan greeted Zhan Gong.

Zhan Gong said hurriedly: "You can just call me Xiao Zhan. I feel guilty for being too polite. I will cooperate with you, where do we start?"

"Take the rectal temperature again." Jiang Yuan said as he took action.

Zhan Gong hurriedly helped.

"The time of death was almost 4:30 in the morning." Jiang Yuan looked at the rectal temperature recorded by Zhan Gu and came to a conclusion directly.

Liu Sheng was right in front of him, responded, and thought: "That is the person who died in the middle of the night. At this time, the school must not be accessible."

Jiang Yuan began to do a physical examination without comment.

Zhan Gong was taking notes and observing Jiang Yuan's movements.

Forensic medicine is a relatively private job. Many forensic doctors have their own customary personal actions. In some cases, they are very useful and are little tricks that are not considered secrets.

Zhan Gong did not notice this situation in Jiang Yuan's operations. In fact, Jiang Yuan's operations were almost all standard movements. To put it bluntly, they were even a bit unremarkable and a bit slow.

Of course, Zhan Kong was not qualified to say anything, so he could just follow Jiang Yuan.

A physical examination lasted for less than half an hour, until Liu Sheng came over and said, "Captain Jiang, how are you?"

"There was no obvious trauma, and no special skin lesions were seen." Jiang Yuandao.

"That's good." Liu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile on his face, saying, "If there is no problem, we will be ready to close the team."

There are many causes of abnormal death, such as various accidents, diseases, suicide, etc.

The deceased Zhou Xiangyang was 72 years old. Although he was not very old in terms of modern people's age, the probability of sudden illness was still very high.

On the other hand, the lack of external injuries and the time of death at 4:30 a.m. greatly reduce the possibility of homicide. From Liu Sheng's perspective, this basically rules out homicide.

Of course, to really rule out homicide, the forensic doctor has to complete the autopsy, but that will be at least a day or two later.

Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment and then said, "I want to scan the scene again."

Liu Sheng agreed first, then waited a moment and asked, "Does Captain Jiang think there is any problem?"

"I feel like I have a little doubt." Jiang Yuan pondered.

Liu Sheng said easily: "You tell me."

Jiang Yuan took off his gloves and put on new ones, saying: "First of all, let's analyze the cause of death. Although the specific cause of death is not yet certain, the deceased's nails were cyanotic and there were bleeding spots on the upper and lower eyelid conjunctiva. These were all caused by suffocation. Even if mechanical asphyxia is ruled out, there is still the possibility of homicide."

Hypoxia does not necessarily cause cyanosis, but cyanosis definitely means hypoxia. It can even be said that nail cyanosis is already a manifestation of hypoxia to a certain extent. Although it may be caused by certain diseases, it still requires careful attention.

Liu Sheng and Zhan Kong nodded together.

Jiang Yuan continued: "Secondly, judging from the time of vomiting and the time of death, the deceased should have started vomiting at one or two o'clock in the morning. During this period, he did not call for help. He may have lost consciousness when he vomited. I think The deceased’s past illnesses, although there were factors such as heart disease, did not look like simple food poisoning or illness.”

Zhan Kong's eyes widened, and Liu Sheng nodded blankly.

Jiang Yuan said again: "Third, the intensity of rigor mortis on the shoulders and chest of the deceased was relatively strong. From the time of death, it did not meet the standards. Of course, there are no strict indicators for this, but we should pay attention to it."

Zhan Kong blinked frequently, and Liu Sheng next to him frowned.

Jiang Yuan: "Fourth..."

Jiang Yuan: "Fifth..."

Liu Sheng waited for Jiang Yuan to finish and said impatiently: "I understand, Captain Jiang, just tell me what to do."
