National Forensic Doctor

The delicate little shrub, in the gloomy woods, can enjoy a little sunshine, and then grow into what it is today.

With just such a small amount of sunlight, it faces huge risks when exposed to drones.

Kaka.

The two detectives held up their hoes and cut off the young bush without any hesitation.

It was not to protect the plant, and none of the botanists present asked for transplantation. The trees in the forest are full of trees. If you give up your place, there will be no place left for you.

Woof woof.

The police dog barked twice more, as if to encourage him.

The detective who was wielding the hoe looked back, shook his head with a smile, and began to swing the hoe wildly.

He didn't look like he was very good at farm work. He only hoeed away the parts of the bushes that were left outside more than a dozen times in a row. After working for three or four minutes, a shallow pit was dug out on the ground. Without water seepage, it could only accommodate two soaks of urine. Even by the standard of pouring wine, four soaks of male urine would be enough. .

"I'm a little tired. This is not a job that can be done by one person." The detective wielding the hoe concluded and handed the hoe to the other detective behind him.

The latter was wearing gloves and had already prepared them, and he waved them silently.

When you are tired, you change again, and when you are tired, you change again. After the area is expanded, someone else starts shoveling the soil with a shovel.

The whole process seemed a bit long because of its boring nature, but the scholars who watched the scene through the camera did not find it boring.

This place, this location was found by Jiang Yuan... and with the participation of everyone, using forensic botany techniques.

For botanists, this is an expansion of their field. Of course, this field has actually been expanded in the 1980s, but what is really shown to everyone is Jiang Yuan's current level.

Qiao Shengli sat next to her mentor Su Lei and looked at the serious expressions of the big bosses around her. She couldn't help but whispered: "I feel so suspenseful. What if I can't find the body?"

"What should you do if you don't get the results when you do experiments?" Su Lei asked back?

Qiao Shengli thought for a while: "Cold salad?"

"That's about it." Su Lei glared at her apprentice. She didn't notice Qiao Shengli's stupidity during the interview, but now she always listens to her stupid words that have never been beaten by society.

Qiao Shengli felt a little bored, and continued: "Then if the body is found, wouldn't it be awesome?"

"Well, with so many botanists, there must be someone who is interested in forensic botany." Su Lei herself is one of the scholars interested in this area, and as far as the current situation is concerned, there are more people interested. Not a bad thing.

At the very least, your article will be cited!

Qiao Shengli's thoughts were not so academic, and she thought about it: "If forensic botany is as common as DNA, how many jobs will be provided? In the future, the police station will be scrambling to invite botany experts. Everyone It’s also easier to find a job. After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in botany, I can work as a technician at the police station or something, which will be great.”

Su Leile was happy: "If you want to do good things, if DNA can be popularized, the first thing is to popularize instruments such as PCR. What can we popularize in botany? Microscopes? It all depends on people picking up pollen... You still don't know why Jiang Yuan gave Are you going to perform digging up corpses?"

Qiao Shengli was stunned: "Is he trying to recruit people to collect pollen for him?"

"Of course, digging up the body does not count as solving the case. To solve the case, you still need to use botany. Looking at the condition of the surface, the forsythia plant just dug out has grown so thick. If there is a body below, it will be there in at least five years. It's dead. It's probably difficult to solve the case if the body has been there for so long." Su Lei has been involved in several cases and is no longer a novice who doesn't understand anything.

Qiao Shengli folded her arms warily, looked at Jiang Yuan on the stage, and then looked at the experts and scholars around her, and couldn't help but ask: "Then, do you think everyone knows Jiang Yuan's thoughts?"

"You should be able to guess it."

"Then everyone is still coming and are you still willing to come?"

"Everyone comes to participate. First of all, you are invited by relevant people. They just ask you to help. If you don't want to, you don't have to accept the invitation, and they can't do anything to you. Jiang Yuan is also willing to perform a performance for everyone, so what's the point of not being happy about it? . People use technology to attract you, clearly and generously, and those who are willing take the bait."

"Instead, he became aboveboard?"

Su Lei smiled: "Because we still need to invest time to learn. This is also a problem of forensic botany. The specific research content and scope are not clear enough. However, this is also an opportunity. If a template is formed, I can just come to you. , it is a waste to find experts.”

What should I do if Qiao Shengli has a flat mouth and is despised by her tutor? It's just a daily routine.

Su Lei herself said that she just looked at the scholars around her and said nothing.

All fields in the development stage have dividends. If forensic botany becomes popular, the project funding problems that everyone is crazy about will be solved in a short time. If it is true as Qiao Shengli said, the police across the country will need the help of forensic botany, and it will not need to be at the same level as the current DNA, just like the trace evidence laboratory, where each province will build a laboratory. There will be countless horizontal projects born there.

Identification of plants in different provinces and cities, distribution of plants in different provinces and cities, and a larger project to digitally mark plants in various parts of the province...

"Woof woof."

The sound of a dog barking came from the speaker again.

The policemen wielding shovels also stopped one after another.

"Find something." A policeman leaned over and dug into the soil with his gloved hands, revealing some grayish white.

"Pull the camera closer." He shouted, digging while waiting for his colleague to pull the camera over.

Soon, after a few blinks, an image of a bone appeared on the projector in the conference room.

The police were still digging with their hands, and the exposed bones were twenty to thirty centimeters long.

"Is it human?"

In the conference room, Qi Changye was more anxious than anyone else.

However, when you see a bone, as a professional criminal police officer, you cannot just conclude that it is a human bone, because both empirically and mathematically, the probability of encountering a human bone is very low.

Poor friends who like to eat vegetarian food and have never seen raw beef leg bones cut in half with a wire saw, salted, wrapped in tin foil and grilled until they were sizzling and oily, you should at least have seen pork tube bones and the like. . Such bones are often misreported as human bones.

As for you saying that there is a corpse buried in the deep mountains and forests that is not human, why exactly is that? This is a discussion of the ratio between psychosis and murder.

The botanists present also looked at Jiang Yuan. They are all vegetarians and rarely see such erotic scenes.

"Put out some more to see the proportions." Jiang Yuan did not tell the results immediately, choosing to wait and see. The clarity of the camera is not particularly high, and the bones in the soil don't even show the full picture... Jiang Yuan is 90% sure, but why be anxious? This is not something to be too anxious about, including the corpse, I guess.

As for the botanists present who are curious, they can just hold it in.

Several police officers at the scene all put on gloves and knelt down to dig with their hands. Only the handler of the police dog did not use it, so as not to stimulate the dog to imitate the same.

It would be bad if the dog's paw is hurt.

Soon, another small bone was dug out, and Jiang Yuan spoke to the microphone on the table and said: "Well, it's basically a human corpse. In this case, the first suspected burial location we are looking for is considered confirmed. Got it!"

The tense atmosphere below was instantly released.

Everyone started talking loudly or softly.

"Is it because of the murder corpse?" someone asked in unprofessional language.

Jiang Yuandao: "There is a high probability that it involves a criminal case. As for whether it is murder, we have to go back and see it before we can judge."

"Botany can still be used in this way. Although I have read the literature, seeing it intuitively is really eye-opening." Some scholars sighed with emotion, which attracted a burst of echoes.

"In general, it is still difficult to find. Finding corpses from the growth environment of plants is not a sufficient and necessary condition."

"You can't look at it that way. Forensic botany is a practical subject. Like today, it doesn't have to be 100% certain when it comes to cooperating with police dogs and the manpower investment of criminal police."

"That's right. Otherwise, Jiang Yuan would have identified several places. There wouldn't be so many corpses in one forest."

The scholars laughed as they spoke.

Qi Changye didn't smile, his face was heavy.

Looking back now, he found that addresses near the land had appeared in reports more than once. But he just didn't notice the connection.

At this time, another younger doctoral student asked curiously: "Forensic Doctor Jiang, how did you identify this corpse as a human corpse? Because I have learned a little about forensics, it's just long bones and a few small ones." As for the bones, it seems hard to determine..."

"The small bones dug out just now are finger bones." Jiang Yuan paused and then said: "There is also a ring in the soil."
