Chapter 107: The Crime of Romance (3)
Pushing the door and entering the forensic room, he saw Xing Lao sitting at his desk, fiddling with roses in three large trays. It seemed that he had just taken the flowers out of the neck of the deceased, and the stems were still covered with blood.
Through the lenses of his glasses, Xing Lao raised his eyes, looked at Luo Chuan and said with a smile: "Coming?" Can't wait, right? Your surprise is quite good, as soon as I opened the body bag, the first thing I saw was a large bouquet of roses. If I hadn't pulled down and saw a piece of my neck, I would have thought it was Father's Day! Or maybe you're going to chase some girl in my medical examiner's room. ”
Tian Zhen has long been accustomed to such jokes. However, Hai Xin, who was standing behind Xing Lao at this moment, was also busy sorting out the clothes of the deceased, couldn't help but smile, and then greeted Luo Chuan and Guan Shan generously: "Team Luo, Professor Guan, hard work." ”
Guan Shan smiled politely back, and Luo Chuan replied a little stiffly: "You have also worked hard." But apparently his eyes had been staring at the roses in Xing Lao's hand, and he hadn't looked elsewhere at all.
Xing Lao picked up one casually, pointed to the broken stalk of the flower stem, and said, "Come, observe carefully." See? This way of pruning. ”
Luo Chuan took a closer look and found that the shears of all the flower stems were pointed. He looked at Elder Xing suspiciously and asked, "Sharpened...... Is it to make it easier to insert into the neck of the deceased? ”
Xing Lao was obviously very dissatisfied with his answer, and pouted his lips and turned his head away, as if he didn't like to deal with Luo Chuan very much.
Seeing this, Guan Shan smiled and relieved the siege: "As long as you are interested in flowers, or people who are in frequent contact will know that if you want flowers to stay in the vase for a longer time, then you need to use some small skills." In the case of roses, for example, flowers bloom in five degrees, from one bud to five degrees of bloom. Choose flowers that are open to 23 degrees, so that after two or three days in a vase, they will completely bloom to 5 degrees. The rose in the neck of the deceased is exactly the third stage. Fifteen centimeters of leaves under the flowers are removed, and the unwanted roots are cut off at an oblique angle of 45 degrees, which was originally intended to make the cross-sectional area of the flower stem larger and easier to absorb water. Judging from the position of the blood on the flower branches, it is also in line with the perfect ratio that the height of the flower is twice the height of the vase. You see, the part that was inserted into the neck of the deceased was exactly half of the whole rose. ”
Luo Chuan was stunned by Guan Shan's flower theory, and looked at Guan Shan blankly, before he could speak, Xing Lao preemptively said in admiration: "Do you see it, do you see it!" You still keep saying that I am biased and prefer Guanshan. Who can not appreciate this! Wen Neng is a professor, and Wu Neng is on the scene. From complex criminal investigation, criminology, psychiatry, to flower arrangement, painting, literature and art, you can develop your work without delaying your personal life. Luo Chuan, when did you say you would be able to ......?"
Luo Chuan had a dark face, looked at Guan Shan's modest smile, and unceremoniously interrupted Xing Lao and said, "Isn't it just a question of flowers, you don't need to praise him so much, right?" He said this bunch, and at best it proves two things. First, the murderer is either from the flower cellar or from the flower shop. Second, this merry boy has given flowers to women. After speaking, Luo Chuan didn't forget to directly throw a roll of his eyes to Guan Shan.
Guan Shan said funny: "This is really wronged, you are making excuses for things you don't understand." Does it have to be a romantic fate to know this? Since you have said two points, then I will continue to add them. Third, the origin of these flowers can be determined to be by no means wild, but cultivated in greenhouses. You see, those branches and thorns are very different from those that grow in the wild. This shows that the murderer either bought it or grew it himself. But the amount of flowers to supply him in large quantities for killing is not small, and if he grows it himself, it needs a small garden. Therefore, the investigation of the murderer can be done from two aspects, one is within a reasonable range, all the people who bought thirty-three roses that bloomed three times on the same day. The second is that within the range, there is a place for people who have their own yard to plant a large number of roses. ”
"......" Luo Chuan was a little speechless, he looked at Guan Shan with a wry smile, and shook his head uncontrollably. I secretly sighed in my heart, if Guan Shan wanted to, his position was really a bit precarious.
Haixin was surprised at this time and said, "Professor Guan, you are really amazing!" Watching your reasoning live is really more exciting than listening to a lecture! ”
Luo Chuan couldn't help but be proud of Guan Shan in his heart, and with a very appreciative smile, he waved his hands and asked: "According to what you say, the gender of the murderer is not very certain." Fiddling with flowers and plants, is it more likely that women? ”
Guan Shan calmly accepted the appreciative glances of these people in the forensic room, and said without hesitation: "This is the fourth point I want to say, you can't blindly judge the sex of the murderer because of the way of killing. This time, it is possible whether it is a man or a woman, unless Xing Lao gives forensic evidence to determine the sex of the murderer. Of course, this does not necessarily mean that the murderer is a woman, because if a man wants to fiddle with these romantic and poetic methods, he may be even more superb than a woman. There's one person we know. ”
Luo Chuan nodded and calmly continued, "Well, Song Mingze." ”
"I'm just giving an example, this kind of bloody cruelty turns romance into a stinking case, which is not in line with Song Mingze's self-proclaimed elegant personality." Guan Shan cut off Luo Chuan's thoughts in time, not giving him a chance to think more.
At this time, Xing Lao took two flowers and shook them and said, "Regarding roses, the clues I can give you, Guan Shan has finished telling me for me." It's still this kid who makes me worry. As for the gender of the murderer, unfortunately, I can't give you any accurate information. Because the deceased's fatal wound was in the back, she was stabbed only after she was pounced. The wound was formed from top to bottom, and it was impossible to judge the height and weight of the murderer. As for the head cutting, it is not too strenuous. As long as the guy in his hand finds the right one, both men and women can do it, only a part of the cervical vertebra is connected, how laborious can it be to cut off? Come on, follow me into the dissection room, and we'll talk about the head that was put in the oven first, and then I'll tell you about the wound in the body. ”
Several people followed Xing Lao into the dissection room, Hai Xin was a little excited and took the lead in walking to the place where the human head was placed, and observed it very carefully for a while, before turning back to Xing Lao and Luo Chuan and saying: "Although this looks charred on the outside and tender on the inside, because the human head does not have too much fat and meat, in fact, the inside has long been roasted." I reckon...... The murderer set 200 degrees, about 70 minutes, well...... It's a little shorter than roasting a leg of lamb and a little longer than a roasting elbow...... It should be about the same as roast duck. ”
Hearing her say this so seriously, Luo Chuan couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly. It's not that he's hungry from watching a barbecue head in the dissection room, but that he thinks of the food Haixin brought him before, and his stomach feels uncomfortable for a while.
But Xing Lao smiled proudly: "Haha, Luo Chuan, do you see it!" This is a true foodie! In my forensic office, I finally found a new talent. ”
