Although the corpse has been ossified, it is not surprising that it has lost its forensic value, and even if the corpse is ossified, it can still get a lot of valuable information.

For example, this suspected corpse of Lu Ji, even if it has been ossified, still has great significance for investigation in Li Mi's eyes.

Why do you say suspicious?

Because this tomb has no tombstone, although it is a tomb found by Neichang Fanzi, there is no other evidence to prove that this is Lu Ji, and before the investigation of conclusive evidence, it is believed that this corpse must be Lu Ji, and it will lose the evidence support.

Although it is protected by a shed, the wind and snow can still get in, so Li Mi must also seize the time to investigate.

The ossification of the corpse does take away a lot of the phenomena and characteristics of the corpse, but due to the ossification, the bone features can be observed more intuitively, and even the means of X-ray examination are saved.

Through the white bones, we can also derive a lot of useful information, which is of great significance for the inquest of the nameless corpse.

For example, the sex of the victim can be identified through the pelvis and other places, and the age of the victim can be preliminarily determined through the bones.

The determination of the pelvis is not difficult, it is forensic science, that is, ordinary medical students, or criminal investigators who have enough understanding of human physiology, can easily determine it.

The details are indispensable, but the average person can tell that in simple terms, men have narrow and deep pelvis, while women have wide and shallow pelvis.

The most intuitive thing is that, at a glance, the one that is upright ellipse is male, and the one that is round, or even horizontally elliptical, is female.

Of course, if you are a professional, you can analyze it through details such as the pubic symphysis, and an experienced forensic doctor, even if you don't have a pelvis, only through the skull including the mandible, the accuracy rate of simplifying the gender is 890%, so it is not very difficult.

Li Mi only had to look at it to know that it was the corpse of a man.

In addition to gender, bones can also identify the age of the victim, mainly in the cranial sutures and teeth.

Whether it is a minor or an adult, age can be inferred from the degree of healing of the cranial suture, but this needs to be more delicate, and the simplest is the degree of wear and tear of the teeth.

Especially in ancient societies, the dietary conditions were not too good, the food was not fine enough, and the staple food was coarse grains, and the degree of tooth wear and tear would be relatively large, and with age, the difference in tooth wear would be greater and more obvious.

In addition, some old traces of the bones can also be inferred from the victim's injury experience.

To use the simplest analogy, if traces of old fractures are found from his arm bones, then it can be inferred that the person has fractured, and if his left and right legs and feet are of different lengths, or have disabilities, or have deformities such as six fingers, then it is more beneficial to check the identity.

So far, Li Mi's inferences have been based on the nameless corpse, and there is no assumption that it is Lu Ji.

And the facts prove it!

"He's not Lu Ji!"

As soon as Li Mi said this, everyone was also shocked, although he had already learned Li Mi's skills, but the corpse was completely ossified, and he could still conclude so conclusively, this kind of means was not a god-like means in ancient times?

Although since the Song Dynasty, there have been crime books such as "The Collection of Grievances", which can even be called classics, but "The Collection of Grievances" is groundbreaking, and it also has the limitations of the times.

From the Song Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, and even to the Qing Dynasty, the development of forensic science was actually very slow, and even the later dynasties were eating the old books of the previous dynasties, and the rise of modern forensic science is also a modern thing.

Moreover, people in ancient times were very taboo about death and corpses, and ordinary people did not have the opportunity to contact these, so they did not know enough, and they were even more surprised by Li Mi's actions.

Although Li Mi had dealings with Lu Ji, he was not close enough to understand his physical characteristics, and the reason why Li Mi was able to make such a statement was really because the characteristics of this corpse were too obvious.

"Brother, how do you see that?" Suo Changsheng and Emmanuel can be said to be the people who have the most research on corpses in this group, but they still have no clue, so they are naturally the most curious.

Li Mi pointed to the corpse and explained to the two: "It's very simple, let's look at the neck bone first." ”

"It is said that Lu Ji was beheaded, and this trace is too obvious."

Everyone followed Li Mi's instructions to see that the skull had indeed been separated, and it was cut off by someone and stitched up when it was buried, but because of the white ossification, the muscles and fascia were eliminated, and the skull was separated.

"Too obvious? What's so weird? Everyone was also confused, Suo Changsheng squatted down, grabbed the skull, and looked at it carefully.

Li Mi didn't sell Guan Zi either, pointed to the wound on the neck bone, and said to Suo Changsheng: "Can you see how many knife marks there are?" ”

Suo Changsheng is a Gu master, and he is not good at swords, Ape Fei Sasuke came over to take a look, and replied to Li Mi: "At least three slashes before cutting off the head......"

Li Mi nodded in approval, and then asked Suo Changsheng, "What will happen if an executioner executes a person after three slashes?" ”

Suo Changsheng and the others also suddenly realized!

In ancient times, or in the Ming Dynasty, the executioner had requirements to execute the prisoner, the knife must be fast, simply decisive, saying that a knife is a knife, if a knife cannot be beheaded, the executioner will be punished.

And in a place like the capital, an executioner would not make such a low-level mistake, it takes three knives to kill a person, even if it is an executioner who has just entered the industry, there will be no such mistakes!

Moreover, the executioner will choose the weakest part of the cervical vertebrae, so as to reduce the difficulty and complete the decapitation simply and neatly.

But the corpse's neck bone was cut up and down, which did not fit the executioner's execution position at all!

The scars in this position are enough to show the suspicion, either Lu Ji was not executed, but his head was forcibly cut off, or this person is not Lu Ji!

Li Mi is biased towards the latter, because he has other arguments!

"Look at his teeth again."

Everyone followed Li Mi's instructions and looked at the skull in Suo Changsheng's hand, and due to the white ossification, the teeth were also very clearly displayed.

"This person's teeth are too badly worn, the back molars are almost worn out, and the front teeth and canine teeth have already fallen out, which is enough to show that the food condition of this person before his death was very bad."

"However, Lu Ji is from the Qihuang family, he has been wearing fine clothes and food since he was a child, and after entering the Tai Hospital, he is even more pampered, he is a person who pays attention to health, he rarely even eats meat, and his teeth and mouth have always been well maintained, so this person will never be Lu Ji!"

Everyone finally came to their senses, because what Li Mi said was indeed reasonable!

In the Ming officialdom, it is also the appearance that determines the income, and there are still certain requirements for appearance in the imperial examination.

If you just want to be a petty official, it doesn't matter, but the officials in the court, especially the civil officials, are the face of the scholars, and if you want to become a Qingliu civil official, you must be dignified.

In the course of the imperial examination, the Song Dynasty, especially the Northern Song Dynasty, which had the most refined requirements for appearance, paid attention to elegance and style, and the appearance of civil officials was a very important indicator.

Although in the Ming Dynasty, the requirements for appearance and demeanor are no longer so strict, but the imperial doctor, as a character who can walk in the forbidden palace, still has requirements for appearance.

If Lu Ji is ugly, has a toothless black face and bad breath, who dares to see him? The hospital is the façade of the world's doctors, and it can't be too cold.

"Since this person is not Lu Ji, where is Lu Ji's body buried? Who is this person? Abe Genkai was very active and immediately raised doubts.

Li Mi pondered for a while, and replied to him: "Judging from the wear and tear of this person's teeth and some old scars on his body, he should be a homeless person in the suburbs, and people should be caught and beheaded to make up ......for it."

"It doesn't matter who this person's identity is, who killed the homeless to pretend to be Lu Ji's corpse, why did he pretend to be Lu Ji's corpse, and what is the motive behind this, that's the point."

When Li Mi said this, Zhen Mi and the others understood.

"Looking for someone to pretend to be a cover-up ......" Zhen Mi said, and Li Mi also nodded with a smile.

"Yes, but what are they trying to hide? Either Lu Ji's death has other hidden circumstances, for fear that we will investigate the real cause of Lu Ji's death through Lu Ji's corpse, or ......"

When Li Mi said this, Suo Changsheng's eyes also lit up: "Either Lu Ji is not dead at all!" ”

Suo Changsheng threw out such a conclusion, everyone was also excited, Li Mi gave them enough sense of participation, the kind of satisfaction and sense of accomplishment brought by revealing the truth layer by layer, also stirred their hearts!

Zhang Huangting shook his head and said to Suo Changsheng: "Impossible, the execution of Lu Ji is a document under the Criminal Department, if Lu Ji is not dead, it is a crime of bullying the king, who would dare to do this?" ”

Suo Changsheng also argued: "Lu Ji is a royal doctor, whether it is a nobleman in the palace or a civil and military official, he has saved many people, in order to repay his kindness, it is not impossible to find an inconsequential lowly homeless person to be a substitute for the dead ghost......"

Seeing that everyone was arguing, Li Mi also raised his hand to stop everyone: "Okay, these are not the point. ”

"The top priority is that no matter whether Lu Ji lives or dies, we must find him, as long as we find him, the mystery will be revealed!"

It is possible that Lu Ji did not die, which also made Li Mi feel lucky, after all, he still has some friendship with Lu Ji, and he has fought side by side in the end.

Thinking of this, Li Mi was no longer verbose, and said to the fan of the inner factory: "Clean up here, send more people, find out Lu Ji as soon as possible, live to see people, dead to see corpses!" ”

The inner factory fanzi received the order, and Li Mi advised: "There is no need to cast a net all over the sky, since this homeless person is a ghost for the dead, then the prison beheading of the criminal department must be greasy, first go to check the executioner and the prison beheader, and don't let go of any of the people involved in the execution!" ”

With a goal, it will be easy to do, with the name of Li Mi, the mad dog Yushi, who dares to commit crimes against the wind at the moment, the inner factory is also famous, and it is only a matter of time before Lu Ji is found!

As long as Lu Ji is found, he can reveal the inside story of Zhu Yijun's poisoning and find out the murderer behind the scenes, so that he can sit back and relax!
