National Forensic Doctor

It was another hard day of investigation. Captain Tang followed Jiang Yuan and others conscientiously for a whole day.

In fact, it is quite a good experience to be able to continuously solve cases without low-level fun.

Although they were all small cases, they were eventually solved. Seeing these young guys who were going to jail for four to five years, seven to eight years, or even more than ten years, as a police officer, I gradually calmed down. .

Of course, there is still a lot of follow-up work to be done in handling the case, including suspect confessions, victim statements, witness statements, on-site inspection records, on-site identification, price determination, fingerprint or DNA identification, video materials, etc., but follow Jiang Yuan to do the case , which is quite worry-free.

First of all, the evidence will be very solid. Secondly, the superiors will obviously pay more attention to the cases Jiang Yuan is involved in. Approval, meetings, leadership signatures, systems, etc. will all be simpler.

After getting rid of his resistance, Captain Tang was in a happy mood. When he got off work, he handed Huang Qiangmin a cigarette and said with a smile: "Actually, if there is no big case, just catch some small thieves every day. , it’s also quite interesting.”

"It depends on what you think. For example, in our Ningtai County, all eight serious cases in the past 30 years have been investigated. There are very few new cases in the jurisdiction, and there are very few petty thieves." Huang Qiangmin happily told Captain Tang The situation in Kopuningtai County.

Captain Tang was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "Then the police have nothing to do?"

"Where there is nothing to do, people who should call 110 will still call 110. Fights at beer stalls, cases of killing wives and poisoning husbands are always inevitable." Huang Qiangmin said, pointing to himself, and then to the surrounding Ningtai. Detectives.

Captain Tang smiled when he saw this: "The labor has been exported, right? You guys are quite comfortable like this. Okay, let's drive back first. If there are still tasks tomorrow, I will continue to follow."

Just as he was talking, Huang Qiangmin's cell phone rang.

Captain Tang hesitated for a moment and did not leave directly.

"Team Cui's phone number." Huang Qiangmin looked at his cell phone number, quickly picked up the phone, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"There is a murder case. Is Jiang Yuan here? We have to ask him to come over and take a look." Cui Qishan is not a very serious person on weekdays, but he often becomes serious.

Huang Qiangmin then became serious, reported his location, and said, "Jiang Yuan is sorting out the evidence and can leave now. Is the case complicated?"

"It's not simple. The body of the deceased was destroyed. You will know it when you come to the scene and see it." Cui Qishan did not describe in detail on the phone.

Huang Qiangmin immediately found Jiang Yuan, gathered his team at the same time, and headed to the location of the incident together.

Cui Qishan's call to Huang Qiangmin also meant asking for personnel support. The Zhengguang Bureau has experienced several major cases, and a large number of manpower has been tied up in specific case handling work. Moreover, some cases cannot be transferred easily, which is when reinforcements are needed.

Two minibuses, supported by a group of police cars, quickly arrived at Xinjia Hutong.

Jiang Yuan observed the environment all the way.

Xinjia Hutong is a relatively remote location, with several factories and family homes in the neighborhood nearby. The factory has long since closed down, but the former family compound of the factory is still standing. After several generations, the people are not very familiar with each other, and it still forms a relatively unique living environment.

From Jiang Yuan's perspective, there are more illegal buildings in this area. Of course, they are all legal buildings now, and most of the violations were committed thirty or forty years ago. Because of historical reasons, once they are recognized, they have to rely on demolition if they want to move again.

There were cars parked on one side of the alley, and minibuses couldn't get in, so Jiang Yuan got in with a police car. Most people got out of the car and walked, and some directly gave support to the busy police at the police station at the door.

The police car that Jiang Yuan was riding in drove to the cordon line and then dropped Jiang Yuan, Huang Qiangmin, Liu Wenkai and Mu Zhiyang down.

When we got out of the car, there was a faint smell of meat filling the air.

Thinking of the reason why he and others came here, including Jiang Yuan, everyone's expressions were not very good.

As the next car came out, the expressions of the technical reconnaissance team leader and team members became even worse. Although they were also present, they did not often encounter such a straightforward scene.

vomit.

Beside the trash can, a policeman was vomiting, indirectly proving several people's suspicions.

Several people looked at each other and continued to move forward in silence.

Cui Qishan was waiting at the door of a large courtyard. When Jiang Yuan arrived, he handed him a pair of gloves, sighed, and said: "I reported the case this morning. The footsteps on the ground were very messy, and there were fingerprints and so on. I originally thought it was a simple case, but Fingerprints and footprints are not matched. There is no surveillance in front of the house, but there are many routes out, extending in all directions. We are already taking surveillance videos, and I don’t know if the photo scout can find anything."

Jiang Yuan nodded, and Cui Qishan explained why he called him now.

In fact, as for the current new murder cases, they are relatively easy to detect. The results can be obtained within a few hours, and often there are many breakthroughs. There may be breakthroughs in graphic investigation, trace inspection, or technical investigation.

It can be understood that today’s investigation methods are comprehensive and advanced, just like a comprehensive test paper. Criminals not only cannot answer high scores, but may also fail to do every question well.

However, if there is no result after a few hours, it means that a criminal with a high score has appeared.

This is a very dangerous situation, and whether it is due to chance or the criminals' strong anti-detection capabilities, such cases are at risk of slipping into the backlog.

Cui Qishan called Jiang Yuan to stop the loss in time.

In the courtyard, various things were piled up in a mess, most of which were tattered furniture. Some of them were smashed on the spot. Judging from the scratches, it seemed that they were made in the past few days.

"This yard was sold to the current landlord just over a year ago. It has been vacant since the landlord bought it. As a result, a neighbor heard a noise here yesterday and thought it was the landlord coming back. No one answered the knock on the door, and then someone called the police. Yes." Cui Qishan paused, then led Jiang Yuan through the yard to the kitchen, and said: "When the police arrived, they found it was a murder scene. Someone killed someone, cut the body into pieces, and steamed the body parts."

While talking, several people saw the large stove in the center of the kitchen.

There were two large iron pots on the stove. One was filled with water and the body parts were boiling. On top of another large iron pot were three large baskets, which were still steaming slightly.

The smell of steamed meat that I smelled at the door came from this type.

Even Jiang Yuan found it hard to accept this scene.

Cui Qishan looked at it several times, but it was still difficult to accept. He turned sideways and said, "This stove was built by the current landlord. It is an old-fashioned rural stove. Coal and firewood are burned in the stove below. The landlord brought his friends I came here twice to play, but people from the neighborhood committee asked them to stop using the stove, and they never came back. The neighbor calling the police also had something to do with this."

Cui Qishan continued: "The fire in the stove has been extinguished. The fuel includes coal left by the landlord, and there is also wood obtained from chopping furniture behind. There is a large pot of water in the steamer on the right. The heat preservation effect is very good, and there is still water in the steamer. There’s warmth.”

Cui Qishan: "The body was not completely cooked, and part of it was left, but the source of the body could not be confirmed."

"It means this is the first time he has committed a crime like this. He has ideas but no experience." Jiang Yuan gave a simple conclusion.

Cooking a corpse to destroy its DNA makes it difficult for the police to determine the source of the corpse. This should be considered an effective strategy, but it will indeed hinder the investigation.

But there are two points here. First, the body must be abandoned so that the police cannot find the first scene. Otherwise, the DNA left at the first scene may not only help the police determine the source of the body, but also may find the DNA of the murderer and arrest them all.

Secondly, a steaming trivia is that cooking a human corpse takes a lot of time and requires many pots to finish cooking.

The murderer knew how to use a steamer to steam, which was already an improvement in detail.

However, even if a steamer is used, it is impossible to steam a corpse that weighs more than 100 kilograms in one go.

A not-so-appropriate analogy is that if you kill a New Year pig during the New Year, it will take a lot of energy and physical strength to cook all the newly killed pork.

"Let me take a look first." Jiang Yuan did not speak rashly, but just started his own investigation.
