Chapter 1: Death in Vain
In the early morning, the sky was slightly bright, and the entire city of Wujiang was shrouded in a mist.
The quiet streets are bustling with only morning vendors and cleaners, bustling with vehicles and pedestrians.
"Murderβ"
Suddenly, a terrible scream pierced the silence of the early morning, and it was particularly piercing.
The frightened screams of the cleaning aunt caused most passers-by to stop and watch, and some of them picked up their mobile phones to call the police.
The police car soon arrived, and there were many people around the cordon, covering their eyes timidly and looking frightened, but still looking curiously from between their hands, the bold only hated that their necks were not as long as giraffes, and they stretched their heads hard to find out.
Ji Nansheng opened the cordon, got in, and began to survey the scene.
"There's a policewoman, she's so beautiful." A man whispered.
"Shanpao, didn't you see the sign around her neck? That's called a forensic doctor! Another onlooker scoffed.
"Forensics? There are actually female forensic doctors in our city?! The man's face was incredible, the forensic doctor did the work of autopsy, and the most timid men did not dare to touch the corpse, let alone have to open the corpse, and the stomach churned when he thought about it......
The eyes of the two men looking at Ji Nansheng suddenly became a little stranger, and the halazi that flowed quietly swallowed it back.
Ji Nansheng put the finger that the cleaner threw on the ground into the evidence bag, and then instructed the assistant to pack up the garbage bin and all the suspicious objects around it and bring it back for testing.
A foul smell emanated as the lid of the bin was opened, and the crowd of onlookers let out a vomiting sound.
With experience, such a stinky corpse stink, it is impossible to have just one finger, Ji Nansheng's eyes fell on a red, white and blue plastic bag, it should be this.
Just wanted to stretch out his hand, the new trainee forensic doctor Lu Chao had already opened the plastic bag first.
"Gross!"
Lu Chao covered his mouth and ran to the side and vomited.
Shaking his head, Ji Nansheng continued to open the plastic bag
"What's wrong?"
The Wang detachment saw Ji Nansheng's face showing a frightened look, and hurriedly stepped forward to look, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
Ji Nansheng glanced at the Wang detachment, and estimated that the Wang detachment had never seen such a terrifying scene after ten years of working as a criminal policeman, and the garbage bag was full of bags of highly rotten stumps
Wujiang, the small county seat, does not have too many major homicides every year, and even if there is, I have never seen such a terrifying scene. Detachment Wang sighed.
"Gross!"
Lu Chao, who had just finished spitting, ran to the side again and vomited after looking at the contents of the plastic bag.
"Carry the whole bin back."
Ji Nansheng patted Lu Chao on the back and handed him a word: "It's okay, right?" Just get used to it. β
Back in the autopsy room, Ji Nansheng put all the stumps on the autopsy ** and began to piece them together.
Lu Chao looked at Ji Nansheng with a pale face, as if he was looking at some kind of monster, although he was born as a medical student, and he had seen a lot of corpses, but he couldn't fully adapt to such a bloody scene.
Ji Nansheng pointed to the pen in Lu Chao's hand and motioned for him to start recording
Inside the conference room.
Everyone looked at the photos on the projector and felt their stomachs churn.
"The deceased was a male, aged between 35 and 45 years old, judging from the corpse spots, the time of death was between ten and twelve o'clock the night before, the body was divided into more than 20 pieces, missing limbs, a head, internal organs and genitals, the fatal wound could not be determined for the time being, judging from the wounds, it seems to be formed by some kind of large canine bite." Ji Nansheng said calmly.
"Biting?" The Wang detachment looked at Ji Nansheng and said.
"Judging by the wounds, I suspect it may be a large dog like a Tibetan mastiff."
The Wang detachment was silent, there are too few clues that can be used in this case, and they can only find a breakthrough from the residents who have dogs, the impact of this case is too bad, and the case will be solved within a time limit.
"Check the missing persons who have recently been reported, the registered people who raise large dogs, Nan Sheng, you look for clues from the evidence, this case is urgent, everyone has worked hard recently, and everyone has a credit for solving the case."
The crowd took the task and dispersed.
Ji Nansheng came to the autopsy room again, carefully examining each muscle, Ji Nansheng suddenly found that the surface of a certain muscle was a little strange, so he carefully cut the surface of the skin with a scalpel, and found that there was a sesame grain in the muscle The surface was stained with a certain blue substance.
"Take it for testing." Ji Nansheng handed the evidence bag to Lu Chao.
A certain thought suddenly flashed in her mind, very familiar, but she couldn't think of anything for a while, Ji Nansheng had to give up, and checked again to no avail, so she changed her clothes and went home, except for waiting for the results of the investigation of her colleagues in the criminal police team, there was nothing else she needed to do for the time being, after a busy day, she decided to go home and take a shower and sleep well.
As soon as Ji Nansheng got home, his mobile phone rang suddenly, and it was his best friend Wang Lin calling.
"Hey."
"Nansheng, come to my house for dinner, today is my birthday, you won't forget it, right?" Wang Lin's familiar voice rang on the other end of the phone.
Ji Nansheng held her forehead, she really forgot
"How so! Okay, I'll be there soon! β
took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet and put it in his bag, and it was too late to buy a gift for a while, so Ji Nansheng hurriedly went out.
Along the way, Ji Nansheng's mind was full of the blue substance on the deceased's body, and her intuition told her that this clue was very critical and seemed to be closely related to her life, but even if she wanted to break her head, she couldn't remember what blue objects at home were related to the deceased, and it seemed that she could only wait for tomorrow's test report to come out.
Wang Lin is a beautiful woman in her thirties, never married, but has a twelve-year-old daughter, no one knows who the father of this child is, Ji Nansheng has never asked this question, Wang Lin never mentions that man, just like Ji Nansheng never mentions his parents, she can understand Wang Lin's feelings, life is already so difficult, why bother to uncover the old scars again, but not mentioning it, it doesn't mean that she has forgotten.
Today's dishes are very rich, and there is a full table, all of which are Ji Nansheng's favorite dishes, Wang Lin is wearing a black cheongsam, which makes her skin fairer, and her white face is even a little flushed, Ji Nansheng has not seen her so happy for a long time, and her mood is suddenly infected.
"Where's the mayfly?" Ji Nansheng looked left and right, but did not see Wang Lin's daughter.
"She's doing her homework in the room, and she sees that school is about to start, and her summer vacation homework hasn't been finished yet, so don't worry about her, let's eat first." Wang Lin smiled.
Ji Nansheng didn't ask any more, picked up the chopsticks and ate, she didn't care about eating for a day, and her index finger moved at the moment.
"Nan Sheng, do you think this kid is very naughty?" Wang Lin asked suddenly.
"Huh?"
Ji Nansheng's hand holding vegetables stopped in mid-air, and I don't know why Wang Lin suddenly asked this, and was stunned for a moment: "No, I think she is too well-behaved and quiet, not like a twelve-year-old child at all, she is more sensible than adults." β
"Maybe it's a single-parent family, she is very introverted, sometimes I don't know what she's thinking, it's all my fault, alas." Wang Lin's face was full of apology.
Ji Nansheng held Wang Lin's hand: "She will understand when she grows up." β
"If one day I'm gone, will you help me take care of her?" Wang Lin looked up at Ji Nansheng and said.
Ji Nansheng was stunned, this question was beyond her bearing, but it didn't look like Wang Lin was joking
"Yes."
Ji Nansheng replied, she always felt that Wang Lin was weird today, as if she was going to part, could it be like in the novel, terminally ill?
"Have you ever wondered what kind of person her father was?"
Ji Nansheng looked at Wang Lin in surprise again, she has known Wang Lin for so many years, she talked about this topic for the first time, in fact, Ji Nansheng was not curious about that man at all, it was nothing more than a bloody plot that was abandoned from the beginning, and she never felt that women could not live without men, Wang Lin was a well-known painter, she was not short of money, and she could bring up her daughter herself.
"I don't want to know about it."
Wang Lin was not surprised by this answer, after so many years, she knew Ji Nansheng's temper.
"Do you want to see him?" Wang Lin lowered her head and said, her hands trembling uncontrollably, as if she was trying her best to control her emotions.
Ji Nansheng glanced at the room, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually spread, Wang Lin must have something to hide from her.
"I want to see it."
Wang Lin didn't speak, got up and walked upstairs, her thin and long back looking a little lonely.
Ji Nansheng took out the scalpel from her bag, held it in her palm and followed silently, Wang Lin's abnormality made her feel uneasy, no matter what happened, she wanted to protect herself and Wang Lin.
Step by step on the stairs, under the high tension, Ji Nansheng felt a burst of blue light drifting in front of her, but she didn't care to look back, Wang Lin had already opened the door of the studio, and she saw a life-size painting abruptly placed in the middle of the room, a full-body portrait of a man, his eyes were closed, and his face was lifelike
The blue paint suddenly appeared in Ji Nansheng's mind, and the dog ...... She suddenly remembered the big yellow dog tied in the yard of Wang Lin's house, could it be that the deceased found today was killed by Wang Lin? That man is Wang Xiaofei's biological father? No, it can't be, Ji Nansheng took a few steps back, how could her good friend become a murderer
"Bang!"
Ji Nansheng felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and his consciousness gradually blurred, and the most obscure picture was an unfinished painting in the corner of the wall, in which a blue lotus flower was drawn
Again and again
"What are you doing, mayfly?! Stop! Wang Lin screamed.
Wang Xiaofei picked up the scalpel that had fallen to the ground, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Mom, when she dies, no one will know our secrets, we can be together forever, and no one can hurt us anymore."
Wang Lin's face was stunned, his mind was full of thoughts, and the hand that went to help Ji Nansheng stopped in mid-air, and fell to the ground after the most slump
