Gu Chen probably understood Ms. Wang's words.

Two days ago, the deceased went to the clinic at night and has lost contact with him ever since.

Coupled with the testimony of the patient's husband and wife, it can basically be concluded that the deceased appeared in front of everyone two days ago, and it is impossible for him to die for a week.

Then, according to the confessions of the family, it can be inferred that the time of his death should have been two days ago.

However, this contradicts the forensic assistant Kaede Takakawa and the time of death that he has identified.

Therefore, Gu Chen was able to understand why Officer He had a huge disagreement with Gao Chuanfeng, and this was the reason.

"Gu Chen. Seeing that Gu Chen's transcript was halfway through, Officer Wang froze there, and couldn't help but ask him: "How can the time of death you identified be so different from the time stated by their eyewitnesses?

"This ......" Gu Chen hesitated for a moment, and couldn't say clearly for a while, so he could only reluctantly reply: "However, according to my various tests on the corpse, it can indeed be concluded that the deceased has been dead for about a week, and this is the result of my conclusion based on the corpse." ”

"But that's not right. Seeing that Gu Chen still insisted on his opinion, Officer He couldn't help but say, "Could it be that the deceased was not there two days ago?

also heard Officer He say that he was lying, and the patient's wife suddenly became anxious.

The man said loudly: "I said comrade policeman, you can't talk nonsense, what do you call me lying?"

"That's right. When the woman saw her husband speak, she couldn't help but say, "At that time, our husband and wife were shopping, and we did see the doctor, are we blind?"

"Even if you don't believe it, you can ask other people, and they have seen it. ”

"Comrade policeman. Seeing the arguments between the two parties, the deceased's wife, Ms. Wang, said: "My husband did disappear two nights ago, and there are many people who can testify about this. ”

"I see. Gu Chen nodded, reopened the transcript, but muttered to himself: "Could it be that the murderer can change the time of death of the deceased?"

"Wouldn't it?" Gao Chuanfeng had been observing Gu Chen, and when he saw that he had put forward this hypothesis, the whole person also said in a questioning tone:

"The weather is so cold now, and judging from the changes in the corpse, it is indeed impossible for the murderer to let the corpse decompose to the state of death for a week in such a short time. ”

"You're right. Gu Chen sniffed and agreed with Gao Chuanfeng's words.

To say that the cold spring these days has indeed made the temperature drop a lot, and the cold wind outside is biting.

In this case, the corpse has reached a state of decomposition for a week, which does seem strange.

"Could there be any other missing details, such as strangulation marks and the like?" Gu Chen frowned and re-examined the body.

This time, Gu Chen still overlapped with the problems found before, there were indeed multiple serious fractures on the body of the deceased.

And judging from the injuries, it should have been violently hit by a vehicle.

But Gu Chen didn't explain the situation immediately, but then glanced at Gao Chuanfeng beside him, wanting to hear his opinion, so he asked him, "Gao Chuanfeng, do you have any opinions?"

Gao Chuanfeng clasped his hands to his chest, nodded and said, "The deceased should have been hit by a vehicle before his death, because the deceased had multiple serious fractures on his body. ”

This situation can only indicate that the deceased was hit by a vehicle while walking at night, and the murderer abandoned him in the wilderness when he found that there was no one around. ”

Gu Chen nodded: "You think about the same as me." ”

"What do you mean almost?" Officer He couldn't help but interject when he saw the two discussing with each other: "You guys are a lot worse, you can't guess the time of death." ”

"It's understandable to say that there is a little error, but forensic medicine, it is your job to test the body, and the error is about five days, which is a bit too much to say. ”

Glancing at Gu Chen, Officer He said again: "And you, Gu Chen, I heard that you also know a lot about forensic work, and I also heard that Forensic Doctor Liu once taught you, and you are half a teacher." ”

"You've also studied Forensic Doctor Liu's forensic manual, and in this regard, you should be considered to have a certain level of on-site autopsy, so how could you make such a mistake? ”

Gu Chen pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

It seems that Officer He is quite dissatisfied with the autopsy skills of himself and Gao Chuanfeng, and even feels that the two of them are not skilled at home.

But it's understandable, after all, the deceased disappeared in the night two days ago, so how could it be that he died for a week?

There must be something strange in between.

So while listening to the nagging of Officer He at the police station, Gu Chen walked up to the deceased's wife, Ms. Wang, and continued to ask her:

"Ms. Wang, you said that your husband was on the clinic at night, so what time did he go out?" Gu Chen asked her on the side.

Ms. Wang was stunned for a moment, quickly combed through her memories, and then recalled in a trance: "When my husband went out, it should be around 10 o'clock in the evening, and it was not yet 10 o'clock, right?"

"Then did you contact your husband again after you went out?" Gu Chen asked again.

Ms. Wang frowned slightly, shook her head, and said, "No." ”

"No contact all night?" Gu Chen said.

"That's right. Ms. Wang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and continued: "Because ...... Because I was so sleepy that night, my husband said that he would go out and come back immediately, saying that it was a person he was helping and that he had some distant relatives, so he had to go out. ”

"I didn't think much of it at the time, after all, my husband often went to the clinic at night to see some elderly people, which is his habit of medical practice for many years. ”

"You also know that our town, especially these natural villages, is inhabited by lonely old people. ”

"The children of these people are all working in the city or in other places, and if the elderly get sick at night and are not treated in time, they may just go to sleep and never wake up again. ”

After a pause, Ms. Wang sniffed, and Lu Weiwei hurriedly handed her a tissue.

After wiping her nose, Ms. Wang added: "Because my husband is usually popular and likes to help others, there are many patients who come to him for consultation, especially at night. ”

"So I didn't pay attention at the time, thinking that my husband would come soon after the visit, so I went to sleep first. ”

But when I slept until dawn, and when I opened my eyes, I found that my husband was not at home at all. ”

"That's when you remembered to call?" asked Lu Weiwei.

Ms. Wang nodded: "That's right, I don't feel right, because no matter how late my husband is at the clinic, he will definitely come home at night, but that day she disappeared like nothing." ”

"I called him, only to hear that he was not in the service area, which was obviously off. ”

"I was completely confused, I didn't know what was going on, and I couldn't contact my husband, I wondered if something would happen. ”

"Wait a minute. Gu Chen interrupted Ms. Wang, and after recording the confession just now, he asked again: "Then you didn't ask about the patient who came to your husband that night?"

"I looked for it, but I couldn't reach my husband the next day, and by the afternoon, I finally couldn't sit still. ”

"Because there was no contact number for the patient at that time, I asked someone to inquire until the evening, and only then did I get the patient's mobile phone number that day. ”

"I dialed the number and it was the patient's family who answered the phone and they told me that my husband had left around 12 p.m. after prescribing medication to the patient. ”

Ms. Wang said this, and everyone fell silent.

Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei looked at each other, feeling that the deceased should have been in a car accident, and then was hit and killed by the driver who caused the accident, and then dumped his body in the wilderness.

Forensic assistant Gao Chuanfeng looked at the corpse on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really difficult to be a good person now, I went to see a doctor at night, but I was caught in trouble when I took it, tsk, it's a pity." ”

"yes. Officer He didn't want it anymore, so he couldn't help but take off his police hat and put it in his hand, and said with a heavy heart: "I had an uncomfortable throat before, and I also looked for him, a very enthusiastic doctor." ”

"As long as he is in the town, no one will not know about him, because he is so easy to talk, so many old patients are inconvenient to come to see a doctor at home, as long as a phone call, he will do his duty. ”

"It's a shame that such a good doctor is gone. ”

"Woo. ”

When Officer He said this, Ms. Wang immediately began to cry again, and the couple saw this and hurried over to comfort her.

But Ms. Wang wanted to approach the corpse, but was stopped by Lu Weiwei and Gao Chuanfeng, who signaled her to calm down first.

Gu Chen put aside the point of why the corpse was detected by error, and directly shifted the focus of his work to the social relations of the deceased.

But after asking, I found out that this is a benevolent doctor.

The deceased was not only warm-hearted and kind, but also sometimes provided free medical treatment to poor families.

Therefore, the deceased should not have any hatred in the local society.

However, thinking of some often doctor-patient conflicts, Gu Chen asked again: "Ms. Wang, you said that your husband is enthusiastic and has a good reputation, so has he ever encountered any difficult patients? Has the patient ever had a conflict with your husband?"

"Comrade policeman, what do you mean by this?" Seeing Gu Chen's question, Ms. Wang was suddenly a little unhappy: "My husband is frank and has a good personality, even if someone wants to quarrel with him, it can't quarrel at all." ”

"Because my husband's character is like that, I would rather suffer a loss for myself than for the patient. ”

"So, this kind of doctor-patient contradiction doesn't exist at all, right?" Gu Chen also asked her one last time after listening to Ms. Wang's words.

Ms. Wang shook her head: "Absolutely non-existent." ”

"Okay, understood. Gu Chen nodded slightly, turned the pen with his right hand, and wrote on the transcript again.

Lu Weiwei walked to Gu Chen's side and said casually, "Senior Brother Gu, are you ruling out the possibility that he can be killed?"

"Yes. Gu Chen has always been straightforward with Lu Weiwei, and this time is no exception, so he turned his head to look at her and said, "Senior Sister Lu, I think so. ”

"The deceased is in the family, and he should also belong to the category of filial elders, especially for the elderly, who has special care. ”

"And family relationships should also be handled well, so we can rule out the possibility of murder. ”

"Yes. Listening to Gu Chen say this, Officer Wang also came over and said: "A person like this is a benevolent doctor, it is difficult to make enemies at all, maybe he really said that on the way home, he was hit by a vehicle, which belongs to the unlucky kind." ”

Gu Chen directly closed the transcript and said to Officer Wang: "Senior Brother Wang, I still want to investigate, the patients who were seen by the deceased that night, because they were the last people to see the deceased. ”

"I want to see if I can find some clues from them. ”

When Officer Wang heard this, he also nodded and said, "I also have this intention, maybe the patient can see something after sending the deceased away." ”

He looked at Officer He and said with a smile: "I said Lao He, can you take us to the patient's house where the deceased went to see him that night?"

"Absolutely. Officer He didn't say a word, and immediately agreed: "I'll lead the way, I know the place, and Ms. Wang told me to come just now." ”

"Even if you don't say you're going, I'll probably go there myself. ”

"That's good. Gu Chen nodded, first walked up to the forensic assistant Gao Chuanfeng, and said, "Gao Chuanfeng, why don't you take the corpse back to the technical department of the city bureau first, and then see if there are any suspicious points on the corpse." ”

"I'm going to visit the people involved here and see if I can get any definite clues. ”

"That'...... All right. Gao Chuanfeng replied reluctantly, because he couldn't understand it, how could he make a mistake?

And not only himself, but even Gu Chen, who has always been praised by Forensic Doctor Liu, is also a time when he stumbles.

But thinking about it this way, Gao Chuanfeng felt better, and directly agreed: "Then I'll take the body back to the technical department first, and you have to call a few people to help carry it to the car." ”

"That's fine. Officer He looked left and right, snapped his fingers casually, and immediately two third-level superintendents came over beside him.

"You help him carry the body into the car and go with him to the technical department of the city bureau. ”

"Okay. ”

"No problem. ”

The two third-level superintendents agreed very happily, and when they assisted the forensic assistant Takakawa Kaede, they put the body into a body bag together, and then carried it into the car together and drove to the technical department of the city bureau.

After sending Gao Chuanfeng away and comforting the deceased's wife, Ms. Wang, everyone decided to go to the patient's home together.

The group drove for about twenty minutes before they came to the address that Officer He said.

On the way, Gu Chen asked Officer He, "Senior Brother He, what was the deceased's tool for traveling that day?"

"It seems to be a battery car, yes, it is a battery car, Ms. Wang just told me. ”

"Did you find the battery car?" Gu Chen asked again.

Officer He shook his head, smiled and said, "Let's try our best to get the battery car back." ”

While talking, everyone had already arrived at the door of the patient's house where the deceased had visited that night.

It is a remote village away from the main road.

The population of the village is small, as can be seen from the architecture.

Officer He led the way in front and said as he walked: "In this family, there are two elderly people, and the children in the family are all working abroad, and it is rare to go home once a year. ”

"The two old people are sick all year round, especially the old lady at home, who often has difficulty walking, but fortunately, her wife takes good care of her, otherwise I really don't know how long this wife can live. ”

Gu Chen nodded: "The empty nesters are indeed pitiful. ”

As he spoke, Officer He had already pushed open the fence door of the compound, and then shouted into the house: "Is anyone at home? I'm Lao He from the town police station, is anyone at home?"

After a moment of silence, I heard a "ding ding dong" sound from the three-story house.

Soon, the door was opened with a "squeak", and an old man wearing a military coat and a warm hat came out with a cane and said, "It turned out to be Officer He, what are you doing here?"

"Let's find out about Lao Liu's situation. Officer He said.

The old man frowned, and said, "Are you talking about Doctor Liu?"

"That's right, he didn't go home after seeing you that night......"

"I know that. Before Officer He could finish speaking, the old man interrupted directly: "After that day, her wife also called me and asked about Dr. Liu's condition.

It was also after the old man asked, and the scene was suddenly quiet for a few seconds.

Everyone looked at each other and didn't speak for a long time.

After Gu Chen calmed down, he broke the embarrassment and said, "Uncle, it's like this, after Dr. Liu visited you that night, he had a car accident on the way home. ”

"What...... What? Doctor Liu had a car accident?" When the old man heard this, he was stunned, and quickly hunched his back, walked in front of Gu Chen and asked:

"Dr. Liu was fine when I saw my old woman that day, why did he get into a car accident?

Gu Chen didn't speak, but Lu Weiwei, who was standing behind him, replied, "Doctor Liu is gone." ”

"You mean...... Gone?" asked the old man.

Everyone nodded.

The old man stumbled suddenly, almost didn't even hold his crutches steady, and the whole person couldn't help but take two steps back: "No, such a good doctor, why is it gone?"

"Dr. Liu is a benevolent doctor, he is gone, then my old woman's illness, who will come to visit me in the future, it is estimated that except for Dr. Liu, no one should come to my old woman at night against the cold wind. ”

Speaking of this, the old man directly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his rough hands.

Gu Chen also asked him weakly after the old man calmed down: "Uncle, Dr. Liu is a good person, so we have to help him find the driver who caused the accident and see who the murderer is, are you right?"

"Yes, that's right. The old man sniffed, and then said, "The driver who hit Dr. Liu must be found." ”

"Do you remember that after Dr. Liu left that night, there was a car accident nearby, or a big movement?"

"Car accident?" the old man pondered, and seemed to have some impression in his mind.

......
