Chapter 39: Survey

Thanks to the work of the frogman team, the victim's body was quickly recovered.

Qi Yuan followed Su Ping forward and saw that the corpse was wrapped in a quilt, and ropes were tied to the feet, waist and neck, tied together with the barbell.

Su Ping squatted down and lifted the corner of the mattress, revealing the hideous and terrifying appearance of the deceased.

Qi Yuan quickly glanced at the corpse's face, then quickly looked away and looked at the rubberized barbell tied to the corpse.

Su Ping only took a general look, and did not move the corpse much, so as not to affect the subsequent forensic autopsy.

Soon he stood up, looked at Qi Yuan, and asked, "Do you have any ideas?" ”

"First of all, the corpse's hair is long and thin, it should be a female corpse," Qi Yuan thought for a while and said, "Secondly, this barbell is a bit strange, the number of barbell plates at the left and right ends of the barbell is not the same, there are five pieces at the foot end, and only three pieces at the head end."

Moreover, the order of the barbell plates is messy, not arranged from large to small or from small to large, among them, the foot end barbell plate specifications are 10 kg, 7.5 kg, 12.5 kg, 5 kg and 7.5 kg from the inside to the outside, and the head end is two pieces of 12.5 kg sandwiched by a 5 kg barbell plate.

Based on this, I think the murderer should have been in a hurry and nervous when he threw the body, so that he didn't have the heart to install the barbell properly, and put all the barbell pieces on it, and bundled it with the corpse wrapped in a quilt, and threw it directly into the sea. ”

"Hmm." Su Ping bowed his head lightly: "The psychological quality of the corpse thrower is not strong, and he should have no experience in killing people before, this is a point, what else?" ”

"And ......" Qi Yuan endured the discomfort, stared at the corpse's face for a long time, and then said: "Judging from the victim's face, the corpse has formed a corrupt giant's view.

Its face is enlarged, the skin is distinctly dirty green, a large area of epidermis is peeled off, hair is lost, the eyes are glaring and the eyeballs are protruding, the tip of the tongue is protruding from the mouth, and the upper and lower lips are turned out in a funnel-shaped.

In addition, there were obvious traces of fish pecking on the forehead and cheeks of the deceased, resulting in a certain degree of defects in the skin and muscles, and the jaw and frontal bones could be seen in the most serious places.

Considering that the area where the body was found was closer to the coast, and that there were a large number of cages pulled up by farmers farther away, the number of wild fish in this area should be very small, and combined with the process of decomposition and the degree of pecking of the corpse, it should have been more than a week since the body was sunk. ”

Su Ping glanced at him unexpectedly and asked, "Do you still know about autopsies?" ”

"I understand a little bit," Qi Yuan explained: "During my college years, I went to the forensic medical school to audit a few classes, and I also went to the library to read monographs on this subject, but I only knew some theoretical things, and I had no chance to practice. ”

"Very good." Su Ping nodded approvingly: "If you want to be a good criminal policeman, in addition to the investigation of your profession, you should also be involved in other aspects." ”

As soon as the words fell, he raised his head again and twitched, and said with a smile: "Lao Yan and Xiao Chai are here...... Well, let's let them in. ”

"Team Sue." Several people said hello to Su Ping, and immediately divided the work into labor.

After taking a few photos, Lao Yan cut off the ends of the knot with scissors, grabbed the knot in his hand, looked at it carefully, and said: "The murderer used the '8' knot, this kind of knot, ordinary people can't tie it." ”

Qi Yuan was quite interested in this aspect, and couldn't help but ask, "Director Yan, what's the point of this knot?" ”

"Not either." Lao Yan shook his head: "Actually, the '8' knot is the easiest among many professional knots, and it will be learned as soon as it is learned, but ordinary people will not learn it, after all, in life, you can tie it casually twice, and you can cope with most scenes with a bow at most."

Of course, compared with the bow and the ordinary knot, the advantages of the '8' knot are also quite obvious, the most important point is that the two rope heads connected by the '8' knot are very strong and very firm, and the disadvantage is that it is not easy to untie after high strength.

In a case like this, it is indeed quite applicable to use an '8' knot to fix the body and heavy objects. ”

As he spoke, he put the knot in the bag and lifted the quilt completely.

A strong stench spread in an instant, making many policemen instinctively take two steps back and wrinkle their noses.

"Sure enough, the corpse has formed a corrupt giant." The old man sighed and said: "The corpse is not clothed, it is a naked corpse, female, the age is not easy to judge for the time being, I can only determine that it should be an adult."

Well? About three millimeters below the sternoclavicular joint, there is a relatively obvious dividing line, the upper part of the dividing line is darker and reddish, and the upper part of the skin is much lighter......"

Su Ping listened, rolled his eyes, and asked, "Is the difference in skin color caused by different temperatures?" ”

"Quite possibly." Lao Yan said: "If the area below the dividing line is in a higher temperature environment, and the blood vessels in the skin are dilated, there will indeed be a clear dividing line.

However, the corpse was too decomposed, and it had been soaked in the sea for a long time, otherwise, this dividing line would have been more obvious. ”

Qi Yuan was a little puzzled and asked, "Under what circumstances will the temperature of one part of the corpse be high and the other part of the environment will be low?" She wasn't dismembered......"

Su Ping glanced at him, pouted and said, "What, haven't you soaked your feet?" ”

"Uh...... Got it. Qi Yuan was embarrassed. He just didn't turn his mind for a while, but he wasn't stupid, after Su Ping reminded him, he immediately asked: "So, when the deceased was killed, his body was soaked in hot water?" ”

"It is accurate to infer that the deceased should have been killed while taking a bath." Lao Yan said: "No one will put the dead in hot water after killing someone, and then fish them out and sink them into the sea. ”

Qi Yuan thought thoughtfully: "So, there is a bathtub at the scene of the crime?" The deceased died in the bathtub? ”

"It should be." The old man bowed his head and continued the autopsy, saying:

"There are two obvious injuries on the corpse surface, both are sharp wounds, incisional wounds, one on the left wrist and one on the neck, starting from the left neck, stopping in the middle of the neck, high on the left and low on the right, the carotid artery and radial artery of the deceased are broken, and the cause of death is preliminarily presumed to be hemorrhagic shock."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but hey and muttered: "In his homicide cases, simple incision is not common, and it is generally cut or stabbed, unless the deceased loses the ability to resist......

Moreover, small flaps can be seen on the wounds of the left wrist and neck, and there are fine, superficial incisions near the wound that are close to the direction of the main wound, which is a typical trial incision wound, and there are multiple small wounds and continuous drag marks at the wound corner, which are typical signs of suicide.

Could it be that this case is still a suicide case? ”
