Chapter Seventy-Four: Mistakes (Today's Update)
When I returned to the bureau in the afternoon, I found that the dissection room was empty, Chu Tianqi was not there, I laughed secretly in my heart, after all, people still can't bear it after staying up like this every day, so I must go back to rest, but the nameless female corpse on the autopsy table is almost finished.
I saw that there was not much left of the corpse next to him, if I followed Chu Tianqi's progress, I believe that it would not take a few days for this female corpse to be completed, and Chu Tianqi had been working hard for so long and had not helped, it seems that he is resting today, I will help him do some, even if I am not as familiar and fast as he is, but if I can piece together as much as I can, he can work hard for a few days, and Yun Duruo and the butcher have been waiting for this female corpse to be completely pieced together.
All the cases are drawn out by this nameless female corpse dismemberment case, this female corpse may be the key to this series of cases, but unfortunately the head of the female corpse has not been found so far, and the identity of the female corpse can only be pinned on after piecing it together, and compare the missing person according to the characteristics of the female corpse to see if it can be found.
I snuffed out the cigarette butt in my hand, changed my clothes and walked to the No. 3 dissection table, after the lesson of the last time, I didn't dare to put it together easily, it was like building blocks, and the wrong one would get more and more wrong.
It's just that these corpses are the same size, and the patchwork must be rigorously compared repeatedly, sometimes even a little luck, of course, the main thing is to be familiar with the human structure, but now the most important thing is patience.
I cleaned up a piece of corpse, put it under a magnifying glass and looked at the edges repeatedly, and made sure that the bones in my hand were part of the ribs, a total of twelve pairs of ribs, twenty-four, especially the middle ones were extremely similar in length and width, even if they were complete, it was difficult to visually determine which ones they were, let alone when they were so small that they were divided.
I observed the rib part of the female corpse that Chu Tianqi had pieced together, the corpse in my hand was straight and short, and the end was blunt and round, and after repeated comparison, it was confirmed that this should be a piece between the eleventh or twelfth ribs of the rib.
However, I can't be sure what the specific part is for a while, I have been observing it for a long time under the magnifying glass, Chu Tianqi has carried out a large part of the patchwork of the eleventh and twelfth ribs, as if the prototype of the puzzle has been roughly completed, and the corpse piece in my hand only needs to be placed in the right place, and there are not many empty spaces left for me, but I spent almost an hour on the corpse piece in my hand.
In the end, I finally determined that this should be the middle section on the left side of the twelve ribs, and after putting it up, it just coincided with the part that had been put together, and I breathed a long sigh of relief, looking at how much effort it would take to put this female corpse together to be as complete as it is now.
As soon as I thought of this, I saw Chu Tianqi coming in from outside, and when he saw me sitting on the dissection table, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes immediately looked at the female corpse on the dissection table.
"Don't worry, it won't disrupt your rhythm, I didn't mess with you this time." I guess he was worried that my misspelling would slow down the whole patchwork, laughing. "This time I was very careful, thinking that if I put together one more piece, you can work a little harder, but this job is really difficult for you, I was busy for more than an hour, so I put together a piece."
"It's okay, it's much easier to get used to it." Chu Tianqi walked over very calmly, he always wore gloves on his hands, and he really didn't know how he survived the choice of forensic medicine for people with cleanliness habits.
It was clear that his attention and concern had always been on the female corpse, and his dedication and focus reminded me of me when I had just graduated, but it had been so slippery over the years, and that enthusiasm had long since been consumed by a corpse that could never be disposed of.
I smiled as I pointed to the pieces I had just pieced together.
"That's it, if you're not at ease, check it."
"It's on the twelfth rib, and there's nothing wrong with it." Chu Tianqi looked at it for a moment and nodded quickly.
"I'll just say it won't be wrong, now you should rest assured." I smiled, his seriousness seemed to have reached a harsh level.
"But it's in the wrong place."
“……”
I was stunned for a moment, and saw Chu Tianqi looking at me very bluntly, never want to see an expression on his face, even if there was no slight change, I even sometimes suspected that he was facial paralysis, anyway, since I knew him, joy, anger, sorrow and joy have never appeared on his face.
It took me an hour to repeatedly check the corpse pieces that I put together, and in Chu Tianqi's eyes, it was denied in less than half a minute, even if I am casual, my professional and technical knowledge will not be bad, anyway, I am also the chief forensic doctor.
"Wrong location?" I asked in surprise after looking back blankly at the overlapping parts of the corpse. "What's wrong?"
"Not on the left, this piece is on the right side of the twelfth rib." Chu Tianqi replied blandly.
The ribs are symmetrical, and it is difficult to visually distinguish the left and right in the case of completeness, not to mention that when it is divided into such a small and the same size, Chu Tianqi did not use a magnifying glass to study the run-in of the edges and the splitting between the wounds and say that I am in the wrong position, I am somewhat disbelievable.
I picked up the magnifying glass again to look at the fractured surface on the right side of the twelfth rib, because the incision had been polished, so the obvious bite was impossible to find, I didn't have any exact findings, and looked up in amazement.
"This piece of corpse happens to be in the middle of the twelfth rib, even if I misplaced it, how can you be so sure it must be the right one?"
"This nameless female corpse had rib injuries before her death, which should have been caused by impact, but it was not serious, but there was obvious inflammation of the rib fascia, so it was concluded that the deceased had fasciitis, and the location happened to be on the right twelfth rib." Chu Tianqi didn't even think about blurting it out. "Although this body piece is completely divided, the bone groove is slightly swollen, which should be caused by long-term inflammation, and there are no symptoms of fasciitis on the left side of the twelfth rib, so this body piece should belong to the right side."
After listening to Chu Tianqi's words, I re-examined, and the result was really the same as what he said, but I didn't expect to ignore this detail, and the chief forensic doctor didn't have any trainees who were careful and professional, and smiled bitterly with shame.
"Looks like you know about this corpse."
"No, but the more I've seen it, the more familiar it becomes." Chu Tianqi still didn't have much expression to answer. "It's coming to an end, so it's up to me, when I came back just now, Jiang Ju asked me to inform you to go to his office."
I was uncomfortable when I heard that the butcher was looking for me, and after handing over the work in my hand to Chu Tianqi, I changed my clothes and went to the butcher's office, and when I went in, I found that Yun Duruo was also there, and the butcher asked seriously when he saw me go in.
"How is the nameless female corpse pieced together, just wait for your autopsy report to check the identity, this may be the key to this series of cases."
"It's going well, I believe it will be completed in a few days, and the autopsy report will come out as soon as possible." I said that I found that it was not right, and I added. "The patchwork of the nameless female corpse has always been done by Chu Tianqi alone."
"Apocalypse, this young man is good, he is a good seedling, and he will be a pillar of talent in the future, and I will commend him well after the case is solved." The butcher nodded and gave me a sudden look. "You are very indifferent, and your indisputable personality is also commendable."
"He is called self-aware." Yun Duruo saw the butcher praising me, and pursed his lips beside him and raised the bar.
"Alright, I've called you here to get down to business." The butcher lit a cigarette and asked solemnly. "The two of you have been cooperating with the follow-up of this series of cases, until the discovery of Xiang Zhongyi's body, so far many people have died one after another, I want to hear your opinions, Yun Team, you are mainly responsible for the case, you talk about it first."
"Judging from the current situation, all the cases are related to the murder of Mu Hanzhi that has just been confirmed twenty years ago, and the victims of the murder are all related to Mu Hanzhi, and the motive for the crime should be vendetta, and the suspected murderer in several of these cases has medical knowledge, and it should be inferred from the time of the crime and the evidence at the scene that it should be male, but there are also women and children suspected of being like Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan in the case, so it cannot be ruled out that it was a conspiracy, but the specific relationship remains to be investigated."
"What do you think of the woman and the child who appeared?" The butcher asked, taking a puff of his cigarette.
Yun Duruo and I glanced at each other, she didn't know how to answer this question for a while, and I could see that her beliefs and cognition were more or less shaken, but in front of the butcher, she didn't dare to say her thoughts directly.
"What do you say directly, discuss right and wrong together, what are you doing?" The butcher raised his voice and asked.
"Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan have been dead for twenty years, and their bones have been cremated and buried, judging from the current situation, there are indeed people who look exactly like Mu Hanzhi and Mu Xiaoxuan." I saw that Yun Duruo couldn't answer, and whispered next to him. "Jiang Ju, you said that there must be people who look exactly the same, but the probability of being the same as Mu Hanzhi's mother and son is too small, is it possible that it is not like Mu Hanzhi's mother and son, in fact, it means ......"
"Ridiculous!" The butcher interrupted me before he could finish listening. "How many times have I told you before, you have to correct your attitude, your judgment directly affects the detection of the case, you all believe that ghosts can kill people, so how can this case be solved, do I want to catch a ghost to close the case, the more bizarre it is, the more the murderer is covering up, wanting to hide from the world and disturb the audio-visual, if you believe that it is not just the plan, the matter has come to this, talk about the future work you plan to do?"
"Find out the other two people who appeared in Mu Hanzhi's room as soon as possible......"
"How?" The butcher interrupted Yun Duruo again.
“……”
Yun Duruo couldn't answer again, it's not that she is incompetent In fact, after the death of Nian Weimin and Xiang Zhongyi, we have not found the place where these two people have in common, so we can't determine the intersection of the two, so the plan to find out the other two from the two of them has completely failed.
"Actually, you don't have to look for it." I buried my head and whispered. "It should be fast in terms of time."
"What's coming soon?" The butcher looked at me and asked.
"Xiang Zhongyi was killed less than a week after Nian Weimin's death, and judging from the time interval between the murderer's current revenge, there must be a murder soon." I replied in a low voice.
The butcher sighed heavily, got up and walked around the room with his hands on his back. |.
"Today, the leaders above talked to me, Xiang Zhongyi is a department-level cadre after all, and the murder case is very important, and has been ordered to solve the case within a time limit, I have been pressing it before, and now I am afraid that I can't suppress it, the military order is like a mountain, I didn't joke with you this time, a month! A month must be solved the case! ”
The butcher has never talked to us in this way, it seems that the situation is urgent and the butcher can not bear it on his shoulders, Yun Duruo and I glanced at each other, the deadline has been set, but the case is not to be solved, there is not even a breakthrough, I know that the murderer will commit the crime, but there is no way at all.
When we turned to leave, the butcher called us back.
"Tomorrow night after work to go to my house, your Aunt Tan said that I told you, I asked you to go to the house to sit on my birthday, at this juncture, she still remembers this, I can't do anything about her, you just come to have a light meal, don't tell the rest of the bureau, so as not to be alarmed, don't buy anything, otherwise I will throw it out."
I just remembered the last time Tan Aiping said about the butcher's birthday, presumably the butcher couldn't move her, so there was really no way to force her, Yun Duruo and I nodded, and the butcher stopped me again at the door.
"By the way, that lecturer Han has been bothering him many times, and I haven't thanked him in person, seeing that you have a good relationship with him, you brought it home for a meal together, as a thank you for his assistance in investigating the case."
