Chapter 31: Residual Hair
The butcher submitted a report to the police inspection department about his dereliction of duty and obstruction of justice, and Yun Duruo and I found out three days later, and suddenly found that we didn't know anything about the butcher, and I always thought that his fiery temper covered all his personality characteristics, but I didn't expect that his delicate under the thick branches and leaves was beyond my imagination.
Yun Duruo was particularly admiring when he talked to me about the butcher, he asked us to look through Mu Hanzhi's case, and he expected that Xiao Bowen's body would be found, and even including me going to see Duan Hong must have been expected by him, as for that photo, he should have thought about handing it over, but the last maintenance of his deceased friend was just borrowing my mouth and so-called questioning.
Presumably, that photo should be a stain that the butcher's heart has never been able to erase, a person who values Rong more than life, looks directly at his own mistakes and is so frank.
I originally thought that I would not be involved in the investigation of the case, but the butcher still told me very clearly that I must find out the reason for Zhang Songlin's suicide during the period when I waited for the results of the disciplinary supervision department, so I almost forgot that I was still a forensic doctor, and I stayed with Yun Duruo every day.
From the nameless female corpse case at the beginning, to the Zhang Songlin suicide case that led to the later, followed by the corpse hidden under the bed and the nameless fetal bone fragmentation case in Huatai behind, there are a total of four clueless cases, each of which has an intricate connection, but no breakthrough can be found in the final analysis.
And now it is involved in the suicide case of Mu Hanzhi 20 years ago, and Mu Hanzhi appeared again in front of everyone's eyes, who has obviously been dead for 20 years, but has become the key to the breakthrough of all cases.
Yun Duruo took the people of the criminal police team and me to Room 21 on the fifth floor of No. 53 Changping Street, which was Mu Hanzhi's previous home, Yun Duruo planned to re-investigate the scene, since all the cases were focused on Mu Hanzhi's body, looking at Yun Duruo's current expression, she really planned to find Mu Hanzhi again, whether it was a person or a ghost.
The dilapidated residential building because of the lighting, even in the daytime there is very little sunlight can shine in, as soon as you go in there is a bit of a cold feeling, we stopped at the door of room 21, everyone put on gloves, I searched for a long time on the broken door, and saw a thin crack, which should be caused by the original scar on the wooden door due to age.
Zhou Baiman said that night from the crack in the door to the room, presumably she looked at the place here, I leaned my head over, from the crack can really see everything in the room, although it is dim but can vaguely see the dresser and mirror opposite, Zhou Baiman has not looked at the eyes for the time being, I am sure that she really stood here that night and looked in the room.
The colleague of the technical department opened the door, and a damp and mildew breath spread out of the room, after Mu Hanzhi jumped off the building with Mu Xiaoxuan to her death, because she had no family, so the aftermath was handled by the Peking Opera Troupe, and the room and relics were empty because no one received them, and the people in the residential building moved out one after another, and this room should have not been opened for more than 20 years.
I found the switch at the door, the light was still good, the room suddenly brightened, the room was not big, and the pattern of the old house was much the same, a bedroom plus a living room and toilet, this should be the best house in that era, perhaps because of Mu Hanzhi's fame.
The furnishings of the room are very neat, they are all in the style of twenty years ago, it can be seen that Han Muzhi is an extremely neat person, the room was well organized during her lifetime, but it has been closed by dust for a long time, and thick dust covers every corner of the room.
Yun Duruo was grabbed by me as soon as he walked in, and the ground I pointed to, there was a slender mark on the thick dust, which extended backwards, and the trace disappeared at the door, and there was a decaying gap under the door.
I crouched down and looked at the mark, the room had not been opened for more than twenty years, but the mark was obviously very light, but I didn't know what left it, I suddenly thought of something, took the glass bead from my trouser pocket, and carefully placed it on top of the mark.
My brows furrowed slightly, Yun Duruo was also a little shocked, the size of the marbles just coincided with the traces, I rolled the marbles towards the door next to me, and the sleek marbles rolled towards the door, leaving behind me a mark that was exactly the same as the mark next to me.
Zhou Baiman said that something rolled out of the room that night, and she later found out that it was marbles, it seems that she is not lying, but what Yun Duruo and I don't understand is who came in and how they got in.
Yun Duruo, who was in front of the marble traces, quickly found footprints, which were the key to solving the case, proving that someone had really appeared in this room recently, and the footprints were large and small, indicating that there were two people who came in, and I couldn't help but think of Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan.
Ling Guodong came with us, he was personally responsible for the extraction of the footprints, he first put the black electrostatic film smooth side down, the metal plate up, and then used the rolling electrode of the electrostatic adsorber to roll forward on the plastic sheet, turned off the power and discharged, gently uncovered the electrostatic film, and the size of the two footprints were clearly displayed on it.
Ling Guodong handed the extracted footprints to Yun Duruo, and said in surprise after looking at them for a long time.
"These two footprints can clearly see the toes and outlines, which shows that the person who came in was barefoot, but the soles of the people's feet were textured, and the extracted footprints were not visible at all, but a large area of irregular undulations."
"The skin has been corroded, and the lines will be completely destroyed." I looked at it and said seriously. "Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan's autopsy report mentioned that both of them had different degrees of skin corrosion, and according to the test of the residues in the skin of the corpse, it was learned that they had been eroded by concentrated sulfuric acid, which has strong dehydration and oxidation, so the skin will be damaged, so the lines cannot be seen."
"You have read Mu Hanzhi's autopsy report, according to the records, how much sulfuric acid is needed to corrode the skin of her corpse?" Yun Duruo suddenly asked me very seriously.
"Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan's skin is not corroded to the same degree, Mu Hanzhi is much more serious than Mu Xiaoxuan, if you want to reach the level of skin corrosion of the corpse, you need to ......" I lowered my head and thought about it and replied affirmatively. 2000-3000 ml should be needed. ”
Yun Du thought thoughtfully, after taking pictures of the scene and collecting evidence, we entered the room, the clean and tidy room should still be the night before Mu Hanzhi committed suicide, my attention was always on the dresser opposite the door.
Very old-fashioned dresser, on which are placed rouge lipstick hair and smoke that have expired and dried up, are all essential cosmetics for Peking Opera, and there are also some common cosmetics for women twenty years ago, which can be seen that Mu Hanzhi is a very delicate woman.
The mirror on the dresser was covered by a thick layer of dust, and I looked back at the crack on the door, and according to Zhou Baiman, she saw someone sitting here combing her hair that night, and saw Mu Hanzhi's face in the mirror.
I gently slid my fingers over the stool in front of the dresser, and there was not a trace of dust on my fingers in front of me, the stool had really been sat on recently, and Yun Duruo and I looked at each other, both a little confused and puzzled.
There is also a wooden comb on the dresser, on which there are a few long black hairs, which are left by the woman at a glance, and a few are also found on the ground under the dresser, it is not difficult to see from the cleanliness of the room that Mu Hanzhi is a very neat woman, any items in the room are neatly placed, and the dresser is also tidy.
Only the position of this wooden comb is incompatible with other items, judging from the dust accumulated on the wooden comb, it has only recently appeared here, I remember that Zhou Baiman once said that Mu Hanzhi sat here that night to comb his hair.
Yun Duruo carefully picked up a hair and said solemnly.
"Pretending to be a ghost, I don't believe that ghosts still have hair, someone has come in, or they may have combed their hair here, but they just want to disturb the audio-visual, and this hair is the best proof of this."
Before Yun Duruo finished speaking, the long hair in her hand broke from the middle and fell to the ground, my brows immediately furrowed, and I asked Ling Guodong for a magnifying glass, carefully took the hair in Yun Duruo's hand, and looked at the broken surface of the hair under the magnifying glass.
By the time I looked up, Yun Duruo should have seen the look of surprise on my face.
"What's wrong?"
Instead of answering her, I gently rubbed my hair with my hands, and on my open fingers, my brow furrowed even deeper.
"This hair is severely fibrotic, judging from the degree of change in the collagen fibers in the hair, it has been at least twenty years, even if it is Mu Hanzhi's hair, it is also her twenty years ago!"
Everyone in the room looked at each other after hearing this, and I was undoubtedly telling the others in another way that Mu Hanzhi, who had been dead for twenty years, sat on the dresser and combed his hair-#~ Miaobi Pavilion?++
"There is another possibility, maybe it was left by Mu Hanzhi twenty years ago, since the person who wants to commit suicide, how can he have the heart to clean up the room again, maybe he took the child to close the door and went to the roof to commit suicide after tidying up." Ling Guodong tried to explain the reason for the broken hair.
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid this case is even more complicated." I took a deep breath and replied with a solemn expression. "This room has been sealed, judging from the mold in the corner, the room is hot and humid, in this environment, the hair from twenty years ago will not be retained until now, this hair has only recently appeared in the room!"
"What did you mean when you said that the case would be more complicated?" Yun Duruo asked seriously.
"A woman who didn't forget to dress up before committing suicide shows that she still cares about her appearance, how can she pour sulfuric acid on her face in full view of the disfigured ......"
After listening to me, Yun Duruo stood in the room completely blank, her expression was the same as everyone else, and the more she investigated, the more confusing Mu Hanzhi's suicide case became.
On New Year's Eve last year, the flower market was lit up like day. The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk.
Today's Lantern Festival, I wish all friends to seize the time to enjoy the last remaining time of the Spring Festival...... Time is running out, so make an appointment in the evening...... o(_)o
