It's not that I scared Lao Wang, but after I made up my mind, I said to Lao Wang: "Lao Wang, it's a case of throwing corpses, two things, first, I want to dissect the corpse immediately, and second, immediately call the brothers from the criminal police team to investigate the scene." ”

Lao Wang's expression obviously changed, but after all, he had done a big thing, and he quickly calmed down: "Okay, I'll do it right away, Doctor Su, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, you go to the institute to eat some first, and we will accompany you to the forensic research institute immediately." ”

Our forensic research institute is built on a small hill called Yejiawu in the suburbs, which looks like idyllic European-style country houses from a distance, and my office is located on the second floor of Building A, room 203. Looking out of my office, the hillside is full of greenery, especially in spring, when the mountains are full of wildflowers, and the view is far away from the urban wetlands, which are the green lungs of our city, and the high-quality ecology attracts countless migratory birds, while near my window is a large flower-decorated square around the downstairs, which can park at least dozens of cars, and it is said that it was designed to be used to park helicopters. If you hadn't noticed the swarthy black granite carved with the words "Forensic Research Institute" on the right side of the entrance, no one would have known that this mansion-like paradise was actually an important battlefield for all the murders in the city.

"Our institute is built so poetically, who is so talented?" When I had just graduated and went to work at the Forensic Research Institute, I asked Brother Murong who had been assigned to teach me.

"Old director, can you still be the Eastern Evil Yellow Medicine Master of Peach Blossom Island?" Brother Murong said a little mysteriously.

"Which old director is it? It's really talented. I looked at him quizzically.

"Which one else could it be? Of course it's your dad, you really don't know if it's false? This time it was Brother Murong's turn to look at me suspiciously.

Counting the construction time of the institute, it happened to be when my father was the director, but my father never talked to me about his work.

"Go, go, little girl, don't ask about this kind of thing." Whenever I asked him about forensics, he always dismissed me boringly.

"This kind of thing? That's what you do? "I was only in my first year of junior high school at that time, and I was very naughty and deliberately angry with him.

"What kind of this, you're still young, there are some things you don't understand, and you shouldn't know, anyway, it's better to stay away, it's good for you." Maybe he thinks that girls should be insulated from forensic medicine, he has never taken me to his unit, and if he knew that I applied for the forensic medicine department later, he would definitely be mad at me.

Lao Wang drove me back to the forensic research institute, my office didn't go around, just went straight to the dissection room, and called Murong Ge to report the situation to Brother Murong while walking, Brother Murong is now the director of our forensic field investigation room, he is attending an academic conference in the field, he listened to my report and said with a smile: "Xiao Su, the opening is good, the first time you look at the case independently, you can see the Tao, this case is good, you can be fully responsible, in addition, find a few small ones to help together, you can arrange it yourself." ”

Brother Murong has always trusted me very much, we have formed the so-called team tacit understanding, I just cut off the phone, he called back again: "However, Xiao Su, you have to worry about the corpse spots in the water, it is complex and changeable, it is difficult to grasp, you can't trust it all." ”

I made a few "oh oh oh" and cut off the phone. Of course, I know that because corpses in the water change their position with the current, the formation of corpse spots is often uncertain, or even does not form corpse spots at all, and when analyzing such on-site data, it should only be used as a reference basis, not a diagnostic basis. However, this ancient well is different, it can be said that the water surface is not moving, it is no different from the ground, and it is fully equipped with the conditions for the formation of corpse spots, and I believe that the corpse spots in this abnormal position can indicate that the corpse has just been thrown down.

In the autopsy room, the new forensic doctor Ling Fei and the others had already placed the corpses on the autopsy table and were ready. After the corpse was cleaned, it was still possible to find some subcutaneous bleeding on the wrist, the color was fresh and dark red, which was obviously an external force, indicating that Lily's wrist was twisted forcefully before her death, and my brain immediately showed a scene of Lily struggling to resist when she was violently attacked.

When I took a quick look at the corpse and turned my back over again to observe, I found that the corpse spots had disappeared at this time, and I was secretly glad that I had scooped up the corpse in the first place, otherwise this most important evidence at the moment would have been overlooked, and I broke out in a cold sweat at the thought of this.

I quickly examined some parts of the mouth and neck that are easy to cause suffocation, but found no damage, then I was a little worried, from the current situation, although the girl has suffered an external scuffle, but the possibility of death caused by external force has been basically ruled out, what will be the cause of death? I have a little nervousness in my heart, in order to get a definite basis, I can only talk about the autopsy, if the results of the autopsy can't explain anything, then the only thing left is to rely on the last hurdle of poison testing, will it be poisoning? Anyway, drowning death has been rejected in my theory of throwing corpses.

"Injury, suffocation, poisoning" the three causes of death can be called the "three axes" of forensic medicine, if a corpse excludes the above three causes of death, then for forensic doctors, this corpse is basically a difficult corpse, to clarify the cause of death, there are more problems that need to be collected and analyzed, anyway, Lily's corpse has given me a bit of a headache, it is really unfavorable, and the first time I looked at the case independently, I was drunk. The current corpse spots support the throwing of corpses, but no obvious cause of death can be found, and the three-plate axe has already used up two plates.

Several forensic doctors had a clear division of labor, began to dissect, knives and scissors flew together, and after a while, important organs were exposed, no damage was found in the organs, and the muscles in the neck were not damaged at all, I began to get a little nervous, and at this point, death by external force has really been ruled out. I'm not afraid that I just told Lao Wang that it was a case of throwing corpses, but I am afraid that there are obviously important signs that it is a case, but in the end the cause of death is unknown, and even if the suspect is caught, there is no way to convict him. Now the injury to the wrist and the corpse spots in the abnormal position are clearly indicating that it is a homicide case, and if I can't find an important basis for the level of the cause of death, then my work will fall into passivity.

The last glimmer of hope is placed in the trachea and lungs, if the body is indeed dumped in the well, the trachea should be free of water that can only be inhaled during drowning, and the foam formed when breathing strongly, and the lungs should be free of drowning, and the weight will not increase significantly.

But when I cut the trachea with clean scissors, I was stunned, there was a lot of foam and fluid in the trachea, and the lungs were more than twice the normal weight.

"Is it drowning?" Ling Fei whispered there, I understand their surprise, if it is drowning, generally speaking, it is not supported to throw the body after death, and if it has never been picked up after drowning and thrown into the water, then my previous assumption of throwing the body according to the corpse spot structure will be completely overturned.

"And the stomach?" Ling Fei handed over the stomach in response, I grabbed the stomach that had been closed with hemostats at both ends, and carefully cut it open, it was full of liquid, and there was a lot of foam in the liquid, I smelled it, unexpectedly there was a strawberry fragrance, but there was no food in the stomach except for liquid, where did the orchid say about dinner? Where does this strawberry flavor come from? Could it be that this liquid is strawberry-flavored or something? I wondered if I drowned in a well, and the water was so clean, and the liquid in my stomach was clear and foamless, so where did it come from? It's even more impossible to have a strawberry flavor, so you can say that you have eaten something strawberry flavored in your stomach? Is this foam the result of this strawberry-flavored thing?

I was blinded all at once, no, but it was a fact, and the signs of severe drowning were clearly in front of me, and they seriously violated my prejudgment. Drown? Throwing corpses? My brain was like my own body dangling in a well.

Finally, to really determine, it is necessary to see whether there is a foreign body inhaled in the trachea, and if there is a foreign body inhaled, it is the most important basis for drowning. I carefully searched in the trachea to see if there was foreign body adsorption, not only to determine the cause of death, but also to help me judge the drowning environment, it was really worth the effort, I finally found a small piece of blue cloth fiber-like things, this ancient well has been abandoned for many years, and I just went down the well to find that the ancient well is very clean, this blue fiber is very valuable, it is likely to come from elsewhere, but this also has to be carefully salvaged at the scene to make a judgment. Now the problem is that regardless of whether there are similar fibers in the well, it can be clear that Lily did inhale when she drowned, since she had inhalation before her death, that is to say, Lily did drown, and since she drowned, it almost ruled out throwing the body, because the inference of throwing the body in the water after drowning is itself a contradiction, so this alone is enough to negate my prediction of throwing the body. If this contradiction is allowed to exist, it will be difficult for me to convince even myself, let alone the investigators who have always had doubts about technical work.

I was caught in a dilemma, drowning death was certain, but it formed a corpse spot in opposite positions. If we talk about corpse spots, it is obvious that there is a process of throwing corpses. If it is only drowning, and there is no basis for pushing into the water in the end, the result of the investigation may lead to a misfall into the water, which is a pure accident, and the nature of the case may change fundamentally.

Where to break through? I checked the data in my hand, Lily is barefoot, whether the shoes can be salvaged in the well has become the key, and if the blue fibers left in the trachea can be found in the well, it is also a statement.

Without taking off my gloves, I hurriedly told Wang of the difficulties I had encountered, and repeatedly stressed that the well must be drained and all that could be found was salvaged.

Lao Wang took out his mobile phone and said, "Okay, okay, I'll immediately tell the serious crime team." ”

After the autopsy, I went back to the office, brewed a cup of strong coffee, the rich aroma of coffee washed my sense of smell, my tired body suddenly refreshed, I opened the chapter of "Forensic Pathology" corpse spots, and before I knew it, I actually took a nap.

Suddenly, my phone rang, and I woke up suddenly, the coffee cup was no longer bubbling, and I didn't know how long I had been asleep, but I got an assumption in my sleep that I couldn't even convince myself, that it must be the subconscious mind at work, and that the questions that I often couldn't figure out would suddenly come to light at some point later. The new hypothesis is that I believe that it was drowning, but even more so that the place of drowning was not in the well, but somewhere else, and that after the girl drowned, the body stayed at the first scene for the night, and finally was transferred to the ancient well in the early hours of the morning, disguised as drowning.

I looked at my phone, and it was Gu Xiao, who was investigating at the scene, calling: "Su San, absolutely shocking!" Guess what we found when we drained the well? ”

"Shoes? Got it? I asked eagerly.

"What shoes, what's the matter, let me tell you, there's a pile of bones found in the well!"
