Chapter 264: Corpses Don't Lie

Isn't it often said in martial arts novels that a big fool met a top master who taught a set of martial arts, and became invincible overnight? How did Liu Ruobing get there, but this has become a hard practice that has accumulated over time? I knew in my heart that she was right, how could the stories in martial arts novels be taken seriously.

However, fortunately, Yang Qiuchi didn't want to be a hero, he just hoped to get close to Liu Ruobing through this method.

Since he has started this head, Yang Qiuchi is not a person who is easily discouraged, at this time, Nangong Xiong and other guards have quickly searched the nunnery inside and outside, and then scattered around the nunnery to guard. In front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, there were only Yang Qiuchi, Liu Ruobing and the abbot Jingci.

Yang Qiuchi salivated and continued to beg: "Senior, I don't really want to learn martial arts, you just need to guide me on how to strengthen my body." Otherwise, as you said, I'll be tired one day. ”

Liu Ruobing didn't know Yang Qiuchi's true purpose, and it was precisely because she knew this purpose that she said coldly: "You don't need to say it, what I decided will never change." ”

Yang Qiuchi smiled bitterly, let's investigate the case, and I'll talk about this later. He stood up, saluted the old abbot standing aside, and asked briefly about the case.

This nunnery is named after this peak, called "One Finger Nunnery", not big, plus the abbot himself, there are only twelve nuns in total, three of them went down the mountain two days ago, and have not returned.

The incense in this nunnery is not abundant, there are no pilgrims to offer incense, and the Buddha statues in the temple are all in tatters.

The deceased's legal name was Yuan Hui and he was in his twenties. I came to the temple for more than a month to ask for shaving, but the abbot said that her six roots were not purified, so she never agreed, so she led the practice in the temple.

Yesterday evening, the abbot Jingci and the little nun Yuanjing were walking behind the mountain, and when they saw her walking alone to the top of the mountain, Yuanjing called her and she ignored it, and she didn't care at that time. But Yuan Hui never came back, and everyone panicked, and this morning, several nuns went up to look for her and found her dead under a big rock on the top of this mountain.

The scene is at the top of Yizhi Peak, three or four miles away from the nunnery.

Accompanied by the abbot, Yang Qiuchi and his party climbed to the top of the mountain for a while, and at a place a few hundred meters away from the top of the mountain, Yang Qiuchi was worried about destroying the scene, so he ordered everyone to stand by, and he brought a forensic physical evidence investigation box with him, and Liu Ruobing and the two went up.

Nangong Xiong immediately deployed a guard and surrounded the mountaintop.

The top of this mountain is only the size of a basketball court, there are several strange-shaped ancient pines and cypresses, behind a big stone, there is a female corpse, Yang Qiuchi and Liu Ruobing went around behind the stone, Yang Qiuchi observed the situation at the scene, let Liu Ruobing stand in the distance, carefully avoid the places where there may be traces, and slowly approach the female corpse.

He took off his official robe and spread it on a clearing next to the corpse, and stepped on it, so as to avoid damage marks, and secondly, to avoid bringing the dust or other trace substances carried by his shoes to the scene, thus confusing the trace physical evidence at the scene.

Trace physical evidence is sometimes an important clue to solve the case, and when Yang Qiuchi solved the Deng Youlu murder case, he found clues based on a small cinder that Deng Youlu fell from his shoe at the scene, and finally successfully solved the case. This case is likely to be carried out by that perverted serial killer, and Yang Qiuchi strives to catch him once and not let the murder happen again.

The weather was hot and sultry, Yang Qiuchi took off his official robe, and there was only a pair of pants inside, Liu Ruobing wanted to turn his head and not look at him, but he was still a little curious, Song Yuner said that Yang Qiuchi solved the case very well, so Liu Ruobing wanted to see how Yang Qiuchi solved this case.

Besides, she has seen Yang Qiuchi naked, and in order to save his life, she also put on her own chastity, so what kind of suspicion can she avoid. The two of them went around behind the big rock, and the guards such as Nangong Xiong under the mountain couldn't see them.

Yang Qiuchi couldn't care about this, he took a pair of thin gloves and put them on, and began the scene investigation and autopsy. This glove was crocheted by Feng Xiaoxue when he was in Ning Guofu, and the female corpse was lying on her back on the ground, her arms stretched out at her sides, and her palms facing up. Spread your legs straight to the sides. The long hair is scattered, the eyes are slightly closed, and there are black purple pinch marks on the neck, and the hyoid bone can be broken by touch. The moon-white dress was untied, the chest was exposed, and the chest was covered with two bloody holes, ** was ripped off and thrown aside.

The corpse has begun to [***], and the [***] vascular network has appeared in the chest, which is due to the large amount of [***] gas produced inside the corpse, resulting in increased pressure, compressing the blood flow of the internal organs to the body surface and filling the subcutaneous veins, staining the soft tissues through the blood vessel wall, thus forming this reticular streak. The corpse has also developed [***] green spots on the abdomen.

There were a few pools of blood on the ground, but not much. This makes Yang Qiuchi a little strange, a pair of ** were stripped of blood, and there should be more than a little blood shed. The mud on the top of the mountain was very hard, leaving no traces of footprints or anything like that, and apart from these few pools of blood on the ground, after careful search, no other traces were found.

Originally, if this kind of murder case is discovered in time, the fingerprints extracted from the corpse, especially the fingerprints of the **, genitals and other parts, can become the key to solving the case and proving the crime.

However, the colorless sweat and dirt fingerprints of people generally only exist on the body for two hours, the deceased was seen on the peak last night, and the body was found this morning, even if it was dead in the morning, but now it is afternoon, and the fingerprints on the corpse have disappeared and cannot be extracted.

Yang Qiuchi first roughly examined the appearance of the deceased, except for the wounds left by the two cuts on the chest, there were no other wounds on the deceased's body. The hymen has a crack in the old surname.

The neck strangulation scars are flaky and obvious, and there are also some scars formed by pressure around the mouth and nose. Mild bruising and swelling of the face, conjunctival hyperemia and edema. The skin around the eyes, ears, and corners of the mouth has dense scattered bleeding spots. This is a classic strangulation mark.

After the murderer withdraws his hand, the pressure on the neck is relieved, and the blood accumulated on the face can still flow along the blood vessels, and the facial bruising and swelling are generally not obvious, which is different from the hanging death that continues to compress the neck, so the facial bruising of the hanged is obvious. However, conjunctival hemorrhage spots and facial skin hemorrhage spots are blood leakage out of the capillaries and are unlikely to disappear even if the pressure is relieved.

Yang Qiuchi moved the lower jaw, hand and foot joints of the corpse, and found that the stiffness of the lower limbs and trunk was still very high, but the stiffness of the lower jaw and neck had begun to partially alleviate.

When Yang Qiuchi turned the corpse over and looked at the corpse spots on his back, he found that the corpse spots had been fixed and the acupressure did not fade, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the cornea was highly turbid and could no longer see through the pupils.

This couldn't help but make Yang Qiuchi frown, staring at this corpse very strangely, why was something wrong? Judging from the appearance of [***] vascular network and [***] green spots on the corpse, especially the fact that the mortis has begun to ease, judging from the temperature and humidity, the deceased has been dead for at least forty-eight to seventy-two hours (two to three days), but last night, the abbot Jingci and the little nun Yuanjing also saw her go to the top of the mountain, and she should have died for more than 24 hours, what is going on?

Corpses don't lie, could it be that the abbot Jingci and the little nun Yuanjing are lying? Or are they looking at the wrong person?

Yang Qiuchi stood up, touching his chin and thinking. Suddenly, he snorted, screamed that something was wrong, squatted down, picked up the left arm of the deceased Yuan Hui, and flipped it over to see, why did this arm have purple-red corpse spots on the inside and outside? It's just that the color of the corpse spots in both places is much lighter.

Could it be that the nuns who found the body in the morning had turned it over? No, the corpse spots will enter the infiltration phase 24 hours after death, when the plasma stained with hemoglobin in the corpse not only penetrates into the interstitial space, but also infiltrates the tissue cells, coloring the cells, and the corpse spots have been fixed, even if the corpse is turned over, the corpse spots will not transfer. Therefore, even if the nuns who found the body moved the corpse's arm in the morning, the corpse spots would not be transferred.

Yang Qiuchi groaned slightly, and guessed the reason, to appear this kind of corpse spots on both sides of the front and back, it should be about twelve hours after death, when the corpse spots entered the diffusion period, the position of the corpse's arm changed, from the palm facing down flat to the palm facing up.

Because the corpse spots are still in the diffusion period at this time, the plasma stained red by hemoglobin only spreads into the tissues around the blood vessels, and the corpse is partially transferred when the corpse is turned over, and the original corpse spots are only lightened in color but will not disappear completely, and new faint corpse spots will appear in the new low parts, because the blood in one part is diverted to two places, so the color of the corpse spots in the two places is lighter than the corpse spots in other places.

The corpse itself will not move, there is only one possibility, twelve hours after the deceased's death, someone once moved her arm!

Who is this person?

Judging from the appearance of the corpse, it is likely that she was raped and killed, could it be that the murderer moved the corpse's arm for some reason about twelve hours after killing her. In this way, the body should have been found in a place where the murderer could control, so it is likely that this is not the first scene of the murder, but the scene of the removal of the body!

What do you do by moving corpses? It's nothing more than to hide the corpse. However, if the murderer was only trying to move and hide the body, this hilltop was not a suitable place to hide the body, let alone expose the body in the open area and not hide it among the bushes a few steps away.

Could it be that this scene of annihilation was deliberately disguised?
