Volume 3: The Case of the Hundred Ghosts Chapter 67: Xu Hansan's Body
Duan Ming did not go to find Xing Qianqiu, but took Xu Shizhong directly to the morgue.
As soon as Xing Qianqiu and them arrived, they had already sent someone to fetch Xu Hansan's body.
At this moment, the body of Xu Cripple was lying on the bed in the middle.
Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong came to Xu Cripple's corpse, Duan Ming looked at Xu Shizhong: "What do you think of this corpse?" ”
"I've seen the autopsy records before, saying that the head was cut off alive while he was still alive." Xu Shizhong said: "However, it is not a sharp blade that cuts off the head, and it is not clear what it is." ”
"I know, I mean, what do you think?" Duan Ming asked again, "Do you think this is a ghost killing?" ”
"This ...... Of course not! Xu Shizhong hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "If it is really a ghost and god killing, then all the people of our Spiegel Division will go home to farm and let the people of the Immortal Sect come to catch ghosts." ”
"Haha, that's right." Duan Ming nodded, and then suddenly his voice sank: "However, Lao Xu, there are really ghosts and gods in this world......
Hearing Duan Ming's words, Xu Shizhong shuddered: "Mr. Duan, don't make fun of me." I know I offended you last time, but I was ordered to do it. ”
"Oh, I see." Duan Ming nodded: "What do you mean, I should blame that torture Qianqiu, not you Xu Shizhong, right?" ”
"I ......" Xu Shizhong's face turned white suddenly, and he shook his head with a wry smile: "Mr. Duan, just say it, how do you want to turn over me?" ”
"It's like I'm a villain." Duan Ming smiled and shook his head: "It's just that I just came out of prison, and there is a lack of food and drink in this prison......"
"I see!" Xu Shizhong nodded hurriedly: "Starting tonight, Chunyu Building, I will be the east, and I will invite Mr. for three days!" ”
"How good is this, after all, I am from Linyang City, and I should have done my ...... as a landlord," Duan Ming replied with a smile.
"It's okay, it's okay! His subordinates have received many instructions from Mr. Duan, and now they can be in this position because of Mr. Duan's support. Xu Shizhong said: "So, I should invite Mr. ”
"Since you've said so, if I don't go, I won't give you face." Duan Ming nodded: "That's it, I'll go." ”
"Thank you, sir." Hearing this, Xu Shizhong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"But what I just said is not a joke." At this moment, Duan Ming suddenly said in a deep voice: "There are indeed ghosts in this world. ”
Duan Ming pointed to his heart: "It's in this person's heart!" ”
"Xu has been taught!" When Xu Shizhong heard this, he hurriedly clenched his fists and said.
"Alright, without further ado, let's start the autopsy." Duan Ming patted Xu Shizhong on the shoulder: "This time, you give me a hand!" ”
"Yes!" Xu Shizhong said in a deep voice.
Immediately after, Duan Ming gently lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, revealing the corpse inside.
Duan Ming gently turned the corpse, and then said: "The deceased is a man, about one hundred and seventy centimeters tall, and has an injury to his left leg, which should be after the fracture has healed, and the recovery is not good, ten centimeters shorter than his right leg." ”
"There is a scar on the back, twenty centimeters in length, which should be caused by a knife cut."
"Headless, the neck is broken from the fifth cervical vertebrae, the broken end is flat and smooth, and the skin gathers inward, which should be caused by life."
"Have you written it all?" Duan Ming looked at Xu Shizhong.
"Got it." Xu Shizhong nodded: "Mr. Duan, what is the fifth cervical vertebrae?" ”
"Referring to bones." Duan Ming explained: "There is a long bone in the back of a person called the spine. It is made up of 30 cones of different shapes. ”
"These vertebrae are called spines, and they are important components of the human body."
"The spine is divided into five parts from top to bottom: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and caudal, of which the cervical vertebrae are seven segments, the thoracic vertebrae are twelve segments, the lumbar vertebrae are five segments, the sacral vertebrae are five segments, and the tail vertebrae are one segment."
"The sacral vertebrae fused with the evolution of human beings to form a sacral ......"
The first and second segments of the cervical vertebra are called the atlas and the pivotal vertebrae, which constitute an atlantoaxial vertebrae. And the seventh cervical vertebra is the position of the back bulge of our neck. ”
"This bulge is the spinous process of the cervical vertebrae, and the location of the rupture can be judged based on this."
"I ......" Xu Shizhong scratched his head: "I should have understood." ”
"It's okay, I'll tell you later." Duan Ming said, "You just need to remember this first. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Duan, for your advice." Xu Shizhong said with his hands clenched into fists.
"Mr. Duan." At this moment, Xing Qianqiu walked in from outside: "So is this person Xu Hansan?" ”
"I've seen the cripple in the past, and his body is very similar to this corpse." Duan Ming thought for a while and said: "I once heard someone say that Xu Hansan once met a bandit in the process of fighting a shift. ”
"The bandits just stole a big household, and when they found Xu Hansan, they wanted to kill him."
"Although Xu Hansan escaped by luck, he was also stabbed in the back."
"Judging from these, the corpse in front of you is indeed Xu Hansan's corpse."
"Hmm." Xing Qianqiu nodded: "So, looking at the wound, could it be cut with a knife?" ”
"Probably not." Duan Ming shook his head: "There are a total of four curvatures in the human spine, which are in the neck, chest, waist, and sacrococcygeal. ”
Duan Ming said and gestured: "So in a normal state, the posture of the cervical spine should be bent forward, if in this case, someone holds a knife to decapitate it, then the blade will inevitably destroy multiple joints and cause damage." ”
"But the position of the body's vertebral body looks smooth and round, and it has not been injured in this way."
"Of course, if Xu Hansan was looking down to pick up something at that time, then his cervical spine would have been straightened."
"And if the murderer stabs him from the back and slashes him right in the back of the neck, then it may also cause this situation."
"But ......" Duan Ming's voice changed, and he pointed to the position of Xu Hansan's neck: "If this is the case, the knife should be slashed in from the back, and then the skin at the broken end should be curled forward with the blade." ”
"But this Xu Hansan's corpse is not like this, the severed skin is curled up to the back."
"This means that the attack started in front of him."
"And it is almost impossible to decapitate a person from front of him with a knife with his head bowed."
"Therefore, Xu Hansan should not have been killed by someone with a sword."
"If you say that......" Xing Qianqiu looked at Xu Hansan's broken neck carefully and said, "Then how did you kill him?" ”
