Chapter 256: Case Analysis

After they left, only the three of them were left at the scene, and Yang Qiuchi said: "First of all, the cause of this woman's death was that he killed him. ”

"Nonsense! If they commit suicide, who can cut off their heads and put them on the branches of a tree? Song Yun'er pouted.

"You are quite right," Yang Qiuchi said with a smile, "However, judging whether it was suicide or homicide or an accident is the first step in solving the case. ”

Song Yun'er didn't think about this so deeply, she nodded, her big eyes lit up, and she looked at Yang Qiuchi.

Yang Qiuchi continued: "After judging that he killed, we must then judge the cause of death. ”

"Then you still need to judge? It must have been beheaded! Song Yun'er said confidently.

"Wrong!" Yang Qiuchi shook his head, "Zhao Qinglan's head was cut off after death. ”

Song Yun'er was about to show her hand in front of her master, but she didn't expect that her first judgment was declared wrong by Yang Qiuchi, she was a little unconvinced, glanced at Liu Ruobing, and said with a slightly flushed face: "How do you know that it was cut off after death?" Who told you that? ”

"Zhao Qinglan's corpse told me!" Yang Qiuchi smiled.

A chill rose up Song Yun'er's spine, and she snorted nervously: "Hey! Don't be scary, okay! ”

Yang Qiuchi turned his head to look at Liu Ruobing, and saw that although she was not afraid, she was looking at herself suspiciously, and said, "Don't be nervous, of course the dead can't speak, but you can find problems from the autopsy, isn't that equivalent to what the dead man told us?" ”

"Hmph~!" Song Yun'er breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and her apricot eyes glared: "You have to scare me to death before you are willing, aren't you?" ”

Yang Qiuchi laughed and said: "How can I be willing to scare you to death......" As soon as he said this, he immediately realized that something was wrong, he shouldn't have said these affectionate words to Song Yun'er in front of Liu Ruobing, and peeked at Liu Ruobing, only to see that her expression was faint and she didn't have any special expression, but the fleeting loneliness in her eyes still couldn't escape Yang Qiuchi's sharp gaze.

Song Yun'er listened to Yang Qiuchi's words, grinned, and said a little shyly: "I hate it!" - Tell me, how did the corpse tell the old man? ”

Yang Qiuchi found Liu Ruobing's unhappiness, and his heart was a little heavy, and he carefully picked up the head wrapped in a sweat towel on the ground (he could only hold it carefully, because the head of the [***] giant view was like a piece of tofu, if he used too much force, the rotten muscles and hair on his face would fall off), turned it over to reveal the section of his neck, and then said: "Pay attention to look here." ”

Song Yun'er and Liu Ruobing stepped forward and looked carefully, but they didn't see anything famous.

Yang Qiuchi said: "The section of this cutting wound was not opened, which proves that the head was cut off some time after death. ”

"Dokai?" Song Yun'er looked at Yang Qiuchi suspiciously.

Yang Qiuchi realized that this word was somewhat professional, so he explained it as popularly as possible: "Simply put, it means curling and contraction, because if the wound is caused before death, the skin, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, etc., have a certain degree of tension and contraction ability, which will cause the wound to be opened, and the wound formed immediately after death will also have a certain degree of wound opening, which is caused by the supernatural reaction of the human body." ”

"Supernatural reaction?" Song Yun'er asked again.

That question hasn't been explained clearly, this problem has come out again, Yang Qiuchi has a big head, looked at Liu Ruobing, and saw that she was also looking at herself curiously, so she became interested, and patiently explained: "After death, some organs, tissues, and cells still have a short life force, and can respond to external stimuli, which is called supernatural reaction, and it is precisely because of this phenomenon in living organisms that organ transplantation can be done......

"Organ transplant?" At this moment, even Liu Ruobing asked.

Yang Qiuchi's head has begun to glow, do you really want to slap yourself and say such things as organ transplantation in the Ming Dynasty, do you want to scare people to death? I didn't dare to explain it anymore, for fear that the more I said, the more I would leak it, I said, "That's what I mean...... That is, if the wound is cut while still alive, the wound will shrink and curl, and if it is cut after a period of death, it will not. ”

Liu Ruobing and Song Yun'er understood a little about the characteristics of the wound and quickly understood.

Yang Qiuchi was afraid that they would continue to ask, so he hurriedly said: "You pay attention, if this woman's head is cut off alive, the soft tissue of her neck section will shrink due to the opening, causing the section to be uneven and the cervical vertebrae to be exposed, but the section of this head obviously does not appear in this case, so her head should have been cut off after a period of death." Her arms and feet have similar cross-sectional features, and it is also proved that they were cut some time after her death. ”

Song Yun'er didn't seem to understand, and asked, "What is it besides this...... Quiver...... What's going on? ”

"Dokai!"

"Yes, Dokai, is there any other way to prove whether the head was cut off before or after death?"

"There are still some of them," Yang Qiuchi patiently explained: "If it is a beheading before death, in the process of cutting, the deceased is still breathing because he is not dead, so the blood from the wound can be inhaled into the lungs through the trachea, or swallowed into the stomach. Therefore, as long as the lungs or stomach are cut open and blood remains, it can be proved that the head was cut before death. ”

When Yang Qiuchi said this, he remembered that it could not be dissected in ancient times, so he explained: "Of course, this is not easy to prove, so it is enough to prove it according to the fracture situation." ”

To prove whether it was created before or after death, there are some other methods, because of the more modern knowledge involved, Yang Qiuchi does not dare to say, such as checking the changes in the life surname of the wound enzyme, checking the blood vessel embolism of the lungs and brain, etc.

Song Yun'er likes to be reckless because her master is on the side, so she is stubborn and asks, "Then, you said that she was not beheaded to death, so how did she die?" ”

"Now it seems that she may well have been strangled alive." Yang Qiuchi pointed to the area around the Adam's apple and on both sides of the neck of the remnant of the skull, and said, "Have you noticed here?" This has choke marks from the fingers and nails. The scar formed a subcutaneous blood spot, which proved to be a prenatal injury. ”

Yang Qiuchi pointed to the crescent-shaped marks on both sides of the deceased's neck and said: "This is a nail indentation, which is a kind of epidermal peeling, which is caused by the murderer's nail scratches...... If you look closely with your eyes, you should be able to spot the rolled epidermis and crusts. ”

Yang Qiuchi is now extra careful, on the one hand, to avoid saying modern words, and on the other hand, to be as popular as possible, however, there are a lot of forensic evidence, and it is not clear in the vernacular. He continued: "Did you notice oval subcutaneous blood spots on either side of your neck?" This is the murderer's finger pressing. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Qiuchi frowned and thought for a while, and then explained: "This mark is very strange, judging from the typical finger pressure injuries and nail injuries on both sides of the neck, it should be caused by one hand, and the deceased barely moved, which means that the deceased had little resistance when he was choked by the neck." This is strange, this Zhao Qinglan is very good at dividing her muscles and bones, since she has martial arts, how can she not resist? ”

Liu Ruobing frowned and said, "It is likely that she herself has been misaligned." ”

Yang Qiuchi nodded: "What the predecessor said is very reasonable, I have examined the joints of the hands and feet of the corpse, and it was indeed dislodged, which confirms the speculation of the seniors." Speaking of this, Yang Qiuchi remembered the Murong family in "Tianlong Babu", who governed his body in the way of others. When Zhao Qinglan subdued Yun stunned the three of them, he used a wrong hand, but now he was restrained by others with this kung fu, and then he died alive.

Song Yun'er asked: "Who is this murderer, have you found a clue?" ”

Yang Qiuchi smiled bitterly: "If solving the case is as simple as you say, you will immediately know who the criminal is at a glance, then who dares to commit a crime!" ”

"Then you've found some clues, right?" Although Song Yun'er was a little afraid of the dead man's head, she didn't want to show weakness, so she still said with a strong smile.

"Of course I did, didn't I say that? Any crime will ......"

“…… will leave traces, it's up to you to find it! Right? Song Yun'er hurriedly said.

"Hehe, yes." Yang Qiuchi pointed to the mouth and nose of the deceased's skull and said, "Have you noticed the mouth and nose of the deceased?" I have examined and found that there are no scars left by the hands of the deceased on the lower jaw, around the mouth and nose, lips and oral mucosa! What does this mean? ”

Song Yun'er and Liu Ruobing looked at each other, and they both shook their heads together, in terms of detection, what Liu Ruobing, a peerless master of martial arts, knew was not much different from Song Yun'er.

Yang Qiuchi continued: "As mentioned earlier, the murderer is Zhao Qinglan, who strangled with one hand, so what should the murderer's free hand be used for? ”

Song Yun'er hurriedly said, "Cover your mouth!" Or grab each other's hands! As soon as she finished speaking, Song Yun'er felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly added: "The other party's hands and feet are twisted and dislocated, so there is no need to scratch them, so it should be used to cover their mouths!" ”

"That's right! Normally, it should be freed up to cover the mouth of the deceased, but the murderer did not! Yang Qiuchi looked at the deceased's mouth and nose carefully, and said: "There are two reasons, first, this is a primeval forest, there is no one to live, even if the deceased shouts through his throat, no one hears it, but since the murderer has a free hand, he is idle anyway, and he will unconsciously cover the other party's mouth just in case, so the first may have a relatively small surname; Second, this murderer likes to hear the screams of the dead at all! ”

Yes? Song Yun'er and Liu Ruobing were stunned by the murderer depicted by Yang Qiuchi, and they couldn't believe that there would be such a perverted murderer in this world. They all looked at Yang Qiuchi in surprise.
