Chapter 6: Corpses
Although the forensic office in City C is very busy, the fact is that it has been dealing with various inspections all week long, after all, cases do not happen every day. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 In addition to the examination of the corpse, a series of follow-up examinations and comparisons are also very important. For a whole week, Xiao Zheng and I were testing for a homicide case some time ago, and the autopsy was conducted two days before my internship report, and our group of interns did not catch up with the scene to learn. So as soon as I reported here, I was faced with various biological tests. Hair, hair, all kinds of hair. The clothes of the deceased, the murder scene, and some collected from the deceased's residence, etc., so much so that I dreamed of getting tangled in my hair for a week's night.
Just today, Xiao Zheng took over a new case. It was a female victim who was found at 6 a.m. in a man-made lake in a park on the outskirts of the city, and the informant was a 42-year-old middle-aged man from a nearby community who had come here for morning exercises. Because it was my direct mentor who took over the case, I had the right to watch and do some auxiliary work. It was arguably the first real job I ever had, and I was a little nervous.
The corpse was transported in its original state. I wore special gloves and stripped off the clothes from the deceased one by one and kept them separately in a sealed bag. This work is not difficult, but it requires great care, the Forensic Department and the Criminal Investigation Department are watching, and any mistake will become a gap in the Forensic Department. Although I hate Xiao Zheng, I don't hate the work of forensics, and I can't let it be dusty.
This should be a very beautiful woman, with upright and delicate facial features, which can even be faintly seen now, but now, under the cloud of death, her slightly distorted face looks a little terrifying, and the facial features that should be admired are also full of hideousness. It should be a big maroon wave that was designed with a lot of money, but now it is wet and sticking to the head, clumped together, and it looks extremely embarrassing. The nails were painted bright red, but now they are full of scratches, and they have lost their original neatness and cleanness. It can be seen that she must have lived a very delicate life before her death, probably a wonderful woman, but now, lying quietly like this, she has never thought of embarrassment in her life. was slightly swollen by the blisters, his skin was pale, and even his original good figure no longer existed. She stayed at the best age of her life forever, but she couldn't keep the once beautiful face.
However, none of this touched me the most. After learning this line of work, you are destined to see the sorrows of life and death in the world, and the clouds and cold rain. No matter how beautiful the past is, no matter how beautiful the person is, if he loses his life, beauty will disappear at the same time, although it is a pity and regret, but it can no longer affect my emotions. When I was in school, I didn't miss anatomy classes, and I was full of respect and no fear for the teachers.
It's just that this corpse is really unusual. I found some kind of wound on the corpse. It's not a scar in the ordinary sense, but a trace left by a youkai, after a lapse of 12 years.
My back was soaked in cold sweat, and I was in a panic that I almost made the wrong preparation. At that moment, I felt like I was back in the day I was ten years old, and my parents were lying in front of me like that, covered with scars. I screamed, yelled, screamed with all my strength, I looked at everyone, told the truth, no one paid attention to me, no one believed me.
"How did you take a professional class at school, how did you have such a big reaction when you saw a corpse?" Xiao Zheng's hand touched my shoulder, and I woke up from the nightmare of memories.
Looking at Xiao Zheng, he had already pushed me aside, motioned for me to rest, and then observed the deceased. I glanced at him, I really hated him, but at this moment, I was also really grateful to him.
I went to the corner and took a glass of water, how to say, twelve years later, I saw such traces again, and the shock in my heart was not clear in one or two sentences. But now it's different, I'm already older.
"You're fine, you can. You are no longer the child who has no ability to do anything, you have the ability to find the truth. "I said to myself in my heart that I would never be so desperate and helpless again. I have studied so much and worked hard for so long, not just to prove that even if I have such a pair of eyes, no matter how the world rejects me, I can still live a good life and find the truth of the world's abandonment.
Since I can't escape the heavy and unfortunate fate brought by these eyes, I have no choice but to accept him calmly, use it, and control him.
Turning to look at the dissecting table, the death of this woman, I will find the answer.
"It's not okay yet, come over and help me if it's okay, if you can't adapt to it, get out of it as soon as possible, and change to a job that suits you." Xiao Zheng at work is like a different person, rigorous, serious, stern and manic, different from the past.
I walked forward quickly, how could I walk, in the present that I had finally found the meaning of existence. I didn't have much to think about, so I quickly sorted out the tools and handed them to him.
Since he's a monster, he should be able to see the same traces I can see. For example, the clear scratches on the neck of the deceased.
"There was obvious fluid accumulation in the lung cavity, a large amount of fluid remained in the stomach, and the throat was moist, and the cause of death was preliminarily determined to be suffocation caused by drowning. Corpse spots were found during the fall period, and no new corpse spots were generated, and the location where the corpse was found was the first scene of the crime. The mortis reached its peak, and the deceased's cornea was slightly cloudy, indicating that the time of death should have been between eight and twelve hours, the time when the body was found was six o'clock in the morning, the autopsy time was eight o'clock in the morning, and the preliminary inference was that the time of death was between eight and twelve o'clock yesterday evening. There were no obvious external injuries to the body, which was basically consistent with the results of on-site exploration. ”
I was conducting an autopsy according to what Dr. Xiao said, but seeing that he said so much, but he didn't mention the scratches on his neck, my heart sank, could even Xiao Zheng, who was also a monster, have to hide it. It doesn't matter if I think I can't see these traces as an ordinary person, or because his intention as a forensic doctor is to cover up.
Perhaps, his existence is a nail planted in the human world by youkai in order to conceal the truth about the torture and killing of humans. After all, these traces themselves are invisible, aren't they, and if the autopsy report is written smartly, the case will be a completely new direction.
It doesn't have to be a murder, it's an accident.
I shuddered at this thought, and if this is the case, then does it mean that the youkai are taking control of the world step by step, taking advantage of the loopholes in the world, squandering their own superpowers, and playing with humans in applause.
Concealment, deception, and even harm.
