Chapter 46: The Deadly Coriander (3)

Luo Chuan sat back in his chair in some frustration, rubbed his head and said, "I don't want to be aggressive when people are losing their families, but isn't the movement of this suicide case a bit big?" Otherwise, it will get to this point. And Guan Shan, I can tell you for sure, whether Zhang Wen really wants to die or not, there are some more complicated things behind this, and it is definitely not as simple as it seems now. ”

Guan Shan said "um" and said: "I know, there must be a lot of weirdness you found from the scene, and the reason for Zhang Wen's suicide is very vague. Judging from Xu Xiaoqing's attitude, Zhang Wen seems to have just talked a little less, but he definitely doesn't look like a person who wants to commit suicide, and because of this, she didn't believe that Zhang Wen would really die the first time she saw the text message, and tried to persuade him, when Zhang Wen really set fire to suicide, she would be so shocked. But when it came to Zhang Wu's mouth, it seemed that Zhang Wen was born with a tendency to depression, even if he committed suicide, it was understandable. The Zhang Wen in the eyes of the couple is different, not the same. ”

"Perhaps...... Is it because Zhang Wu is Zhang Wen's younger brother, so he knows more deeply? What we know is still too superficial and not deep enough. Luo Chuan said, ready to take out his mobile phone to call Ke Xue and Tian Zhen, and ask them if they had found anything over there.

But before he could contact him, a series of Ke Xue's "Luo Team, Luo Team, Luo Team...... sounded in the corridor outside the door

Luo Chuan frowned, opened the door and shouted to Ke Xue in the corridor: "You summon spirits!" I stayed with Zhu Dapeng for two days, and I didn't learn anything else, but you learned very quickly in his way of shouting people all over the building! ”

Ke Xue saw Luo Chuan, hurriedly ran over, and said with some grievances: "Wouldn't I be able to find you faster if I shouted you like this!" It's not good, it's really bad, it's not me this time, you have to be mentally prepared and I'll continue. ”

"If you talk nonsense, the bad one may be you." Luo Chuan's voice was as cold as his expression.

Ke Xue shuddered, and hurriedly pulled Luo Chuan and Guan Shan into the house, and closed the door very tightly, and looked around to confirm whether there was anyone around.

Luo Chuan looked at Ke Xue in surprise and asked, "Xiaoxue, what did you steal from the office?" Or did you break the equipment in the lab? Are you going crazy? ”

Ke Xue mysteriously dragged Luo Chuan and Guan Shan to the table, took out a few pieces of paper from her arms, and whispered, "Team Luo, Professor Guan, I haven't shown this thing to anyone yet!" Everything is done in secret, and no fourth person knows about it except for the three of us! ”

Luo Chuan's patience was limited, and he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Xiaoxue, if you pretend to be a ghost with me again, I will really let you go home and write ghost stories!" ”

"Team Luo! There are really ghosts, not stories! Ke Xue's face was a little pale, and she didn't look like she was joking.

"What do you say? You repeat? Believe it or not, I pumped you? Luo Chuan still couldn't stand the strange power of his team members as a criminal policeman who opened his mouth and closed his mouth.

Ke Xue said aggrievedly: "I know that we are against feudal superstition, so I did it secretly and did a good job of secrecy!" Team Luo, I really didn't lie to you, there are ghosts! I've verified the footprints outside the back door of the fire, and it's from those shoes! And those shoes are the ...... of the deceased Zhang Wen"

“……”

Luo Chuan and Guan Shan looked at Ke Xue and didn't speak.

Ke Xue spread out the few pieces of paper in his hand, and inside was a detailed appraisal report. Ke Xue pointed to the printed picture above and said, "In order to avoid mistakes, I strictly reviewed it four times!" These size 43 casual shoes are the deceased Zhang Wen's! There is absolutely nothing wrong with those footprints in the back! Team Luo, do you remember what those two firefighters said? They said that after the fire broke out, the back door was never opened, and the deceased showed no signs of running, right? But there was a residue of gasoline on the sole of the shoe, which was the accelerant that fueled the fire in that room! This illustrates...... After the fire started, one Zhang Wen lay on the bed and set himself on fire, while the other walked out the back door with his shoes on after his death! You say, this is not a haunted or anything! ”

Looking at Ke Xue's still somewhat green face, she was extremely pale at the moment. Luo Chuan wanted to comfort him, but for a while, he couldn't immediately organize a reason, a scientific reason.

"Maybe Zhang Wen's death was killed by him, and all these seemingly strange phenomena are all illusions created by the murderer." Luo Chuan did not fully believe in the theory of self-immolation from the beginning, because there are too few cases of self-suicide by simply burning. After all, it was a long and painful way to die.

Guan Shan was also puzzled and said: "If that's the case, Xu Xiaoqing's testimony will become the biggest obstacle to solving the case." Because she can still be sure that the person she saw downstairs is Zhang Wen. Her testimony is completely contrary to the inference you just made. ”

"Guan Shan, can you tell if that woman's testimony is true or false?" Luo Chuan looked at Guan Shan, eagerly waiting for him to answer.

Guan Shan thought for a moment and said, "If you mean judging from her words and deeds when she talks to us, then I can conclude that her words are 95% credible. But judging from her nervousness and anxiety and great stimulation at the time, it is not easy to say. Again, what she said was true, but none of us can be sure if the memory in her mind is accurate or not. ”

"Perhaps...... Zhang Wen can be sure. With a hint of a smile in Luo Chuan's eyes, he pulled up Guan Shan and walked out.

Ke Xue didn't know what was going on, so she could only ask anxiously: "Team Luo, where are you going!" What should I do now? ”

Luo Chuan didn't look back, only turned his back to Ke Xue and replied: "Go back and continue to study the material of your ghost story, and find a way to figure out how those shoes went out by themselves." ”

Ke Xue looked at Luo Chuan's back as he walked farther and farther, so he had to take the information in his hand and go back to the laboratory again.

The place where Luo Chuan wanted to take Guan Shan was naturally the forensic office, and he felt that the person who knew the most about the entire scene was not them, nor Xu Xiaoqing, nor the firefighters, but Zhang Wen. Only the man who died in that fire knew best what was going on at the scene.

Walking in the corridor leading to the forensic office, Guan Shan listened attentively, but did not hear any movement. When I walked to the door, I was puzzled and wanted to ask Luo Chuan, why didn't Xing Lao play any music and opera today? But he faintly began to hear Old Man Xing reciting aloud in the forensic room with the demeanor of a storyteller: "In the past, King Wen was imprisoned, and King Xuan was trapped in Xihou without a way. Fei You once asked the number of innate numbers, and the flames and smoke locked the jade building. Hahaha, Tian Zhen, except for the death method of sitting firmly in the Star Picking Tower in myths and legends like King Xuan, ordinary people are really rare! ”

Luo Chuan held the door of the forensic office with one hand, and smiled at Guan Shan beside him: "Did you hear that?" Each corpse can make this old man have a different mood, and he seems to think of Zhang Wen's charred corpse as if he remembered the self-immolation of the King of the Emperor to pick up the Star Tower. After speaking, Luo Chuan pushed open the door of the forensic office as if he was going back to his office.

Xing Lao and Tian Zhen were in the outer office, and as soon as they saw Luo Chuan and Guan Shan, Tian Zhen immediately stood up and shouted, "Team Luo, Professor Guan, you are here!" The teacher just said that you will definitely not be able to wait for tomorrow, so you will come over early. ”

Luo Chuan smiled and said, "Did the old man have ulterior motives for reciting those few sentences of the Romance of the Gods just now?" You want to tell me that it's hard for ordinary people to have the courage to sit firmly in the star-picking tower and set themselves on fire, right? ”

Xing Lao pushed his glasses and smiled evilly: "You kid, it's as if you can figure out everything!" I was just giving a lesson to the girl, what are you doing outside the door! Come on, let me tell you about the one in today. I'll listen to it, and by the way, see how much we Tian Zhen has grown. Xing Lao said as he picked up his teapot and poured himself a glass of water, and then sat comfortably on the sofa, waiting for Tian Zhen's performance.

Tian Zhen seemed a little nervous, and she looked up at Guan Shan.

Luo Chuan was standing next to Guan Shan, and after seeing Tian Zhen's gaze, he tilted his head to block her vision and asked, "Is he your leader or am I your leader?" What's the use of you being nervous about looking at him? Give me some advice on achievements, don't embarrass Xing Lao. I don't want me to have an intern squad all the time, right? ”

Tian Zhen is different from some girls' twisting and pretentiousness, after listening to Luo Chuan at this time, he glanced at Luo Chuan and said, "Team Luo, then you can listen well." Let's start with the teacher's words. Most simple burns are accidents and disasters, and suicide or homicide is rare! If you kill yourself, you think, even if you set off a fire big enough to burn down your house, it will take you a certain amount of time to burn yourself to death. In this process, the toxic gases produced by high temperatures, thick smoke, and incompletely burned substances will make life worse than death. In this case, as the teacher said, except for the legendary King of the Ring, there may really be very few people who sit or lie down so calmly and wait for the long process of death. As for his killing, if you think about it, murder is a very dangerous thing, unless there are a few criminals who commit a perfect crime, most murderers are as seamless as possible and finally get caught. Therefore, the attention to killing is that people are unaware of ghosts or skillfully arranged and carefully arranged, anyway, the purpose is to hide people's eyes and ears and not be discovered. It would be stupid to set fire to him and kill him, first of all, the movement is too big, and it can't be noticed. It is impossible for a person to be killed without running away or calling the police, and the time to burn a person is not as neat as a gun or a sharp weapon, and it is not even as convenient as a roadside brick. You say, how much patience and courage does a murderer have to be to guard the crime scene and wait for the victim to die? ”

Looking at Tian Zhen, who was so professional in front of Xing Lao, Luo Chuan's heart was very satisfied. But he still asked quietly on the surface: "What do you mean by Forensic Doctor Natian...... Is it the greatest possibility to use fire to burn corpses to cover up the facts of the crime? ”

"Yes!" Tian Zhen tilted his head and looked at Luo Chuan with some smugness. It can be seen that she is also very satisfied with her performance.

It's just that Luo Chuan shook his head and said: "But the reporter said that he saw the deceased walking around the window before self-immolation, and he also sent a text message to the reporter, and it seemed that he had been wandering for a while." This proves that the man was alive before the fire started. Tian Forensics, how to explain this? ”

"Uh......" Tian Zhen was suddenly asked a question about reasoning other than the autopsy, and looked at his teacher with some indecisiveness.

Xing Lao kept smiling and looking at Tian Zhen, and when he saw Tian Zhen being asked by Luo Chuan, he laughed and said: "Luo Chuan, Tian Zhen will be a forensic doctor in the future, not a criminal police captain." You should solve the reasoning matter yourself! However, your question is not completely difficult...... Let me tell you. According to you, the deceased died by self-immolation, right? However, self-immolators usually pour combustible liquids such as gasoline and kerosene from the head down to their bodies, and then use ignition items such as lighters to set themselves on fire. Let me ask you first, did you find a lighter at the scene? If not, then what did he use to set himself on fire? Second, more than 90 percent of the self-immolators choose open public places, because the purpose of self-immolation is mostly due to evil, superstition, or some extreme righteousness. Because the self-immolation site is open, the Hbco in the deceased's heart and blood is generally not high, and it will be less than 30%. I can tell you, this dead man of yours, is not. Also, the typical feature of a self-immolated corpse is that the degree of burns varies, because he has to pour gasoline from head to toe or light the fire himself, right? Therefore, it should be that the degree of burn of the upper body is definitely heavier than the degree of burn of the lower body. I can tell you that this victim of yours still doesn't qualify. After Xing Lao finished speaking, he pushed his glasses again with a wicked smile, as if he was waiting to see Luo Chuan's anxious look.

"That's... That is the phenomenon of someone deliberately destroying corpses and destroying traces to create self-immolation? That...... The person Xu Xiaoqing saw was a murderer?! Luo Chuan was also a little stunned by this old urchin, but this was similar to his initial expectations. From the moment he first entered the scene, he had a feeling that Zhang Wen was not the kind of extreme self-immolator. Even if you commit suicide, you can't use such a tragic way.

Xing Lao seemed to be deliberate, and he sighed: "Hey, Luo Chuan." You kid has solved countless cases, I admire you very much! However, in some cases, all the evidence is presented to you, which will affect your judgment. Because it seems that all the evidence has overturned all your assumptions, as if nothing is right. I can only say that if you really happen to encounter the very few criminals who use simple fire to commit homicide, then you have to be prepared, because it is impossible to identify it by the examination of the body alone, and it must be judged by the comprehensive results of the case investigation, on-site investigation, laboratory examination, etc. ”

The forensic room was quiet, and after a while, Guan Shan politely asked: "May I ask Elder Xing, is there any possibility that the victim can be honestly burned alive?" ”

It sounded like a fantastical question, but Xing Lao smiled at Guan Shan and said, "Don't say it, there really is." ”
