Chapter 227: Autopsy
Lao Bai heard Yang Sen's shouting, broke through the rain curtain from more than thirty meters away, and ran over.
"What's wrong?"
"Look at this!"
Yang Sen pointed to the black plastic bag under his feet, and what fell out was the handle of a sharp knife.
"Handle?"
How can there be a knife in a black plastic bag?
"The bag I just saw, kicked at random, and there was something in it."
The two squatted down and looked at the handle of the knife outside.
Yang Sen put another layer of gloves on himself and twisted them gently.
"This thing...... It can't have anything to do with carrion, right?"
Today, there was heavy rain in Haizhou City, and the body was washed ashore by the waves.
And a black plastic bag with a sharp knife in it?
"I don't know, let's take it back and test it first."
Yang Sen also had no answers to Lao Bai's questions.
However, from the perspective of on-site investigation, the suspicious items found around the scene naturally cannot be let go.
The sharp knife was removed from the water, and the scabbard was attached.
"No wonder the blade of the sharp knife didn't pierce the plastic bag, it turned out to be still with a scabbard."
Lu Chuan and Liu Guodong were not as lucky as Yang Sen.
The banks of the Bailan River have been washed away by the overflowing river repeatedly, and there is hardly anything left behind.
There are even branches and garbage in some rivers that wash up and are washed away the next moment.
Liu Guodong looked up at the gloomy sky.
"Let's get ready to close the team, go back and investigate the corpse, and the forensic doctor will have to dissect it."
"Yes!"
"Roger."
The echoes of Lu Chuan and others came from the walkie-talkie.
After searching for more than an hour, the surrounding situation has basically been surveyed.
Aside from the scabbarded knife found by Janssen, there were few clues.
Liu Guodong looked at the sharp knife that Yang Sen had put in the evidence collection bag and looked at it for a moment.
"Let's go back and do a bloodstain analysis to see if there is a possibility that it is the murder weapon."
Although this possibility is infinitely close to zero, it is the only clue found on the scene anyway.
Maybe there's a clue.
Half past four in the afternoon.
Forensic dissection room.
Liu Guodong took Lu Chuan to do an autopsy on the corpse.
Wang Changjiang and Shen Yan were also on the side.
This time, it was a joint investigation and forensic examination.
"I've already checked the body in the morning."
Wang Changjiang stood on the right hand side of the corpse: "But he didn't open his clothes."
Liu Guodong nodded, clothes are not an important examination target for forensic doctors.
However, the clothes of this nameless corpse are extremely important objects for investigation in the field investigation.
"Lu Chuan, this time you come to investigate, and I will make a record."
Lu Chuan nodded, he knew that this was Liu Guodong giving himself a chance.
Yang Sen and Lao Bai were arranged by Liu Guodong to do a bloodstain identification of the sharp knife.
Liu Guodong and Lu Chuan are responsible for the corpse investigation here.
Although Lu Chuan and Liu Guodong have also been to many scenes in the past, and even Lu Chuan has found many important clues, but in the past, Lu Chuan was still a record, and Liu Guodong was mainly responsible for the investigation.
It's not that Liu Guodong doesn't believe in Lu Chuan's ability.
After more than half a year of getting along, Lu Chuan has already proved his ability with practical actions.
It's just that there are rules for the current survey, and there is no problem with who makes the record.
However, on the current investigation record, it is not the person who records the record who signs and confirms the last, but the investigation criminal police.
If you sign it, you don't sign it casually, and you have to be responsible for anything that goes wrong.
Moreover, liability is now retroactive for life.
Liu Guodong took the initiative to take over the recording work this time and asked Lu Chuan to do the spot survey, then
It is said that Lu Chuan is in charge of the current investigation of this case. Look at the book
This is both a kind of trust and an experience.
"The sex of the carrion corpse, preliminarily judged to be female, age unknown."
The corpse was already in the terminal stage of active decay, and the skin of the whole body was ulcerated into holes, and the rain soaked made it impossible to distinguish the age from its appearance.
Even if it is gender, Lu Chuan has temporarily made a preliminary judgment through the characteristics of his hair and clothing.
"Next, examine the clothing attached to the corpse."
Unlike the doctor's rescue, Lu Chuan's inspection of clothes is not to use scissors to cut open the placket or the parts with obvious wounds.
He checks the condition of the clothes inch by inch.
Details such as the texture of the garment, the brand, the feel and even whether the color of each button is the same, etc., should be checked.
"White cotton long-sleeved shirt, pure brand, size S number, left sleeve cuff with signs of long-term wear and tear."
Lu Chuan's observation was very detailed.
There are different standards for the investigation of the clothing attached to the corpse in different situations.
Because the carrion has not been identified for the time being, it is not known where the scene of the first crime is, and it is not even known when the other party died.
Then it is very necessary to do the survey of the clothing very carefully.
This will help Lu Chuan analyze the nature of the deceased's work, economic conditions, and even find out where he lived.
If the deceased still has some special clothing on him, it may be possible to directly determine the identity of the deceased.
"Skinny denim trousers, also pure brand, have scratches on the right buttocks."
"The right shoe is missing, and the left shoe is a pull back brand canvas shoe, the size of which is thirty-six."
From long-sleeved shirts to jeans, shoes and socks, Lu Chuan made a very detailed investigation of the clothes attached to the corpse through observation.
Liu Guodong recorded them all one by one, and nodded secretly every time Lu Chuan said something.
Seriously, Lu Chuan's basic skills are really solid, and even he didn't notice some details of the investigation.
For example, the long-term wear marks on the cuff end of the left sleeve of the deceased's long-sleeved shirt.
This is an important trace that can judge the habits of the deceased during his lifetime.
For example, the deceased was left-handed, writing with his left hand, and all the right cuffs were not worn, but the left side was worn.
Another example is that the economic conditions of the deceased can be roughly judged, after all, the cuffs have been worn and slighted, but the clothes have still not been changed.
Of course, the specific situation needs to be analyzed specifically, for example, Lu Chuan knows that some young people now like to deliberately make old clothes.
Whether this shirt is this situation or not has to be analyzed in detail.
"Next, I'm going to remove the clothing attached to the corpse and inspect the underwear and the surface of the corpse."
This work is not something that Lu Chuan can do alone.
Not even one more.
Because of the high level of decay of the corpses, there are even quite a few maggots crawling around on the dissecting table now.
"Brother Wang, Master, help?"
Wang Changjiang is nothing, and he is used to it.
Although it was the first time for Shen Yan to come into contact with a corpse with such a high degree of corruption, as a professional forensic doctor, and had already been equipped with a gas mask and PU professional protective clothing, she had no objection to it.
However, Lu Chuan obviously didn't want Forensic Doctor Shen to do this, so he called Liu Guodong.
Record, you don't need to record all the time.
It's just that it's impossible to take off your clothes normally, so you can only use scissors to destroy them.
Wang Changjiang and Lu Chuan lifted the corpse, and Liu Guodong cut open his shirt and pants.
Wow!
Then there was a bunch of things that fell off one of them with a bang after losing the shackles of their clothes.
