Police Chen Shu

The corpse was floating on the water with its back facing upwards. There were many green algae hanging on its body. It was impossible to distinguish the specific clothes on its body.

The most obvious thing is that there is no head on the body, so Brother Huang from the police station contacted the criminal department as soon as he received the report.

From the outside, it has been corrupted for a long time. Although it looks like a big fat man, this is also the reason why it is full of corrupt gas inside and causes its body to swell. It may have been just a thin person.

"The deceased is a male. He has been dead for a long time, and the time of death will not be less than a week." Julie narrowed her eyes and stared at the corpse intently, said in a deep voice.

Since coming to the scene of the crime, Chen Shu found that Zhu Li's whole demeanor had undergone a huge change, completely different from the relaxed and freehand style when he had lunch with him in the western restaurant.

Serious in speech and expression, her whole body exudes indifference, calmness and concentration that do not match her age.

Chen Shu walked a few steps closer to the river until the toe of his shoe was submerged in the water. He looked at the corpse carefully and said in confusion, "You can't tell the gender from the clothes, even without a head. How do you know that he is a man? The time of death is based on his appearance." Is it judged by the corrosion situation?”

Zhu Li grabbed Chen Shu who was about to fall into the river, opened the suitcase, took out a pair of silicone gloves and stuffed it in.

"In river water, the human body can be divided into two parts, the front and the back. The heavy part will sink relatively, while the light part will float on the water surface. The center of gravity of men's bodies is often biased towards the front, so they will appear prone in the water, that is, The face faces the river. The female is the opposite, lying on her back.

"Even if you don't tie heavy objects, the corpse will still sink to the bottom of the water. However, as time goes by, there will be a lot of gas in the corpse due to corruption, so that there will be cavities and a lot of air bubbles inside the corpse, and then it will gradually surface. water surface.

"To judge the time of death, we mainly observe the feet of the corpse. Since the gas in the corpse is first produced in the abdomen, and finally extends to the lower limbs. Therefore, the order in which the corpse emerges is first the chest and abdomen, and then the feet. Look at this corpse The whole body is floating on the water, so we can judge the approximate time of death."

Chen Shu nodded, and put on the silicone gloves: "Very professional. But when I was in the police station, I always fished it up, and it was clear at a glance whether it was a man or a woman."

"Let's not say that this one has no head. Even if the whole body is left, it will be viewed as a giant, and it is still obvious at a glance? Come on." When facing Chen Shu, Zhu Li always laughed and played with him involuntarily without realizing it.

Chen Shu grinned: "Without a head, it's still clear at a glance!"

Zhu Li blinked her eyes, was a little dazed, and seemed to be reminiscing, and it took a while to realize that her ears were already red, she bit her lip, and buried her head, not daring to look at him.

Xiao Ming, who saw this scene all in his eyes, really murmured in his heart: Is this still Zhu Wuchang from their criminal department?

Under the sun, Chen Shu straightened his back, patted his hands and prepared to work: "By the way, does this count as destroying the scene?"

Julie smiled slightly: "It doesn't count, just fish."

"good."

Chen Shu took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to go into the river.

In the floating corpse case, the first scene where the corpse is found is basically not the scene of the crime, so there will not be too detailed inspection on the disposal of traces at the scene, which is unnecessary.

"Wow."

A burst of retching came from the side, interrupting Chen Shu who was about to go down the river to retrieve the corpse.

Zhu Li turned her head and returned to her usual aloof look: "Why have you been to the scene so many times and still look like this?"

Xiao Ming wiped his mouth, his face was pale, and his lips were bloodless: "Director, you two are the only ones who don't take it seriously, I'm really not used to it."

Zhu Li: "Hurry up and take pictures, Chen Shu is still waiting to find the dead body. Originally, you had to do this job!"

Chen Shu?

Could it be Chen Shu from the special police brigade of the sub-bureau?

These words sounded like thunder in Xiao Ming's ears, his face was stunned and he was stunned.

In Xiao Ming's heart, the excitement of working with a big man rose unexpectedly.

Policeman Chen Shu, that is a well-known figure among the younger generation of policemen. When this person was at the police station, he won the first place in the security crackdown of the sub-bureau every year, and he also won the first place in the anti-fraud and recovery of stolen goods. Later, he cracked several murder cases and misjudged the situation. The whole team of criminal policemen who were chasing him across provinces gave him a slap in the face.

The most legendary is the recent aid to Xinjiang operation, which created a heroic achievement of carrying the plaque of the first-class meritorious officials (although the ministry has not yet approved the document, but the gossip people have ignored it).

The legend about this person has not been limited to Dongzhou City.

From the looks of it, it looks like a good match for Director Zhu in our family. Xiao Ming thought of many things in a flash, and his eyes brightened: "Yes! Take pictures now!"

Policeman Huang Ge from the police station brought the anti-riot steel fork from the police car, and cooperated with Chen Shu to salvage the body and put it on the gravel on the shore.

Clean up the green algae attached to the corpse. At this time, the corpse has a giant appearance, and it looks like a big black doll from a close look.

Chen Shu casually touched some parts with his fingers, as if stuck in lard, it was sticky, and occasionally there was a hissing sound of a balloon leaking.

Xiao Ming, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help but vomit again.

Chen Shu looked up to the west, and said in a deep voice, "This corpse is still wearing clothes, which means it should have entered the water from Mayu to the east."

Hearing the words, Xiao Ming put his hand on the glasses that were thicker than the bottom of the wine bottle on the bridge of his nose, and asked in confusion, "Da Chen, you know that too?"

Julie looked over with the same doubt.

Chen Shu chuckled: "I used to wander around fishing with the old policemen in the station, so I still know a little about this Yanzi River. You can see that the clothes and pants of this corpse are still on the body, which means that the water flow down this way is not urgent.

"From the west of Mayu, the water flow is a bit fast. You can see that the corpse has lost its head, but the loose underwear on the upper body is still there, which means that the water flow after the corpse enters the river is very slow. So I can roughly judge the location."

Xiao Ming interjected, "If the water flows fast, will the corpse's clothes be washed away?"

"Yes, for example, the corpses we salvage from the Oujiang River are basically naked, that's why."

Xiao Ming: "Oh."

Huang Ge, a policeman from the police station, was fascinated by the sound, and unconsciously participated in the discussion: "I haven't received any reports of missing persons in the past few days. Could this case be a suicide?"

Chen Shu shrugged: "Take the corpse back and cut it open to see if there is any sand in the lungs."

If there is sand in the lungs, it means that the deceased still has the physiological phenomenon of breathing when entering the water; if there is no sand in the lungs, it means that the dead has stopped breathing before falling into the water, and there is the possibility of homicide.

This is common sense. As long as you have been a police officer for a few years, you will know these basic things, whether it is a police station, traffic police team or criminal university.

Everyone nodded, waiting for the next 'but'.

"But." Chen Shu squatted down, touched the pants of the deceased, and then reached into the pants and groped repeatedly, "This case may be a murder case with a high probability."

"ah!"

Xiao Ming opened his mouth wide in surprise, pointed at the corpse and asked, "Da Chen, that's obvious? Why? Are you sure?"

An exclamation, plus three questions, completely showed Xiao Ming's shock.

As a trace inspector of the criminal department, Xiao Ming has also been to many murder scenes or accident scenes, and he is more or less a person who has seen the world.

Furthermore, the investigators of the Criminal University and the Criminal University work in the same building every day, and there are a lot of bragging and farting. Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?

Xiao Ming's excitement also aroused the curiosity of Zhu Li and Huang Ge.

Three pairs of eyes hung on Chen Shu's hands, waiting for him to slowly grope for the corpse.

Chen Shu pulled the corpse's trousers, revealing the long johns inside: "It's cold, it's okay to wear long johns."

Then he pulled off the top of the corpse: "But the upper body is only wearing a thin underwear, let alone a coat, not even a woolen sweater."

Xiao Ming hesitated: "Will it be washed away by the river?"

Chen Shu: "There is a certain possibility. But look, the baggy underwear hasn't been washed away. Do you think the sweater with tight neck or the down jacket with the zipper will be washed away?"

Xiao Ming seemed to realize something, and suddenly realized: "Could it be that someone deliberately took off the deceased's coat before the corpse fell into the water? Oh, Brother Huang, why are you hitting me on the head!"

Brother Huang, a policeman from the police station, withdrew his hand and jokingly said, "Xiao Ming, are you from the Criminal University, or is Chen Da from the Criminal University? Don't ask, save yourself some face."

"Brother Huang! Even if you are my cousin, you can't pat me on the head! People will be fooled!"

"With your IQ, no matter how stupid you are, you can't be stupid anymore!"

While arguing, the two began to put the body into the body bag.
