Chapter 10: AIDS
It is imperative to confirm the identity of the deceased.
There will not be a corpse in the world out of thin air, and if a corpse appears, there will definitely be a report of missing people.
There are currently 18 cases of missing people in Jianglin City, but who stipulates that the bodies found in Jianglin City must be locals of Jianglin City?
Fortunately, the criminal investigation technology of the police is advanced enough, and there are still many ways to confirm the identity of the deceased.
This includes DNA testing and cranial restoration, which is the most common method used by the police.
The autopsy is still going on intensely, and it is still difficult to find out the cause and time of death from a corpse that has already shown the appearance of a giant.
The Serious Crime Team continues to investigate Zhang Yufei's disappearance, and according to the direction of the investigation after our discussion, we will now focus our investigation on Zhang Yufei's movements before her disappearance, and find out where she has been.
According to an investigation of Zhang Yufei's mother and Zhang Yufei's colleagues, Zhang Yufei's life is very simple, eating at home and in the company's restaurant, commuting to and from work by riding a shared bicycle, and usually shopping at a large supermarket near his home.
But all this is only what we know, and a person's lifestyle will definitely not be so simple.
Cinemas, cafes, amusement parks, restaurants, and small supermarkets are places that I have definitely been to although I have been to relatively few places.
At the same time, in the forensic autopsy room, the autopsy of the female corpse in the well is being carried out intensively.
This is a decomposing autopsy room, which is the forensic department's dedicated autopsy room for dissecting decomposing corpses.
Two forensic doctors from the Forensic Medicine Department are performing an autopsy on the corrupting woman's body.
The deceased was a woman, and the long hair of the original shawl had been contaminated with sewage and blood, and the dreadlocks were formed into "dirty braids", because the deceased's skin had decayed, and the blood and bacteria in the body that broke through the control of the human immune system multiplied, and the dirty green body fluids formed were mixed together, flowing out through the decay of the skin, and the white dress was tightly glued to the wound and became one.
The first thing the medical examiners needed to do was to separate the white dress on the female corpse from the corpse.
The two forensic doctors changed into protective clothing for the autopsy of the decomposing corpse and officially began the autopsy.
The two forensic doctors, one surnamed Di and the other surnamed Song, are definitely the most authoritative forensic doctors in the entire Jianglin City.
They have the nicknames of "Little Di Gong" and "Little Song Ci" respectively, which is also an affirmation of their professional ability and professionalism.
Two forensic doctors joined forces to cut the clothing on the woman's body with a sharp scalpel, slowly separating the clothing from the skin.
The first step is to observe the corpse surface to see if there are wounds and wounds on the corpse surface, the wounds often represent the cause of death of the deceased, and any slight scar on the corpse surface can restore the process of the deceased when he was killed, as well as the murderer's motive for killing.
In particular, obvious car accident drag injuries, as well as kidnapping restraint injuries, can often directly determine the nature of the case.
But the corpse in front of the two of them had no valuable wounds or scars on the surface of its body, and the decay of the skin was enough to erode all the wounds and scars.
But the observation of the corpse still has to be done, and the two forensic doctors endure the visual impact of the decomposing wound and make a careful observation.
The examination of the body proceeded very slowly and carefully, and the two medical examiners soon found some skin lesions near the few intact parts of the deceased's skin.
The so-called skin lesions are some herpes found on the surface of the deceased's body.
As the immune system collapses after death, the herpes ruptures and eventually leads to infection, but the scars of the herpes are still visible.
Herpes forms on the skin, which is a very common infectious skin disease, and the most common is herpes zoster, which is an acute infectious skin disease. Chickenpox occurs when children who are not immune to the virus are infected.
The two forensic doctors continued to observe, but the more they observed, the more they felt that something was wrong. Because this shingles was found on the body surface, eyelids, mouth, and lower body of the deceased.
Herpes is caused by a virus, and although the environment in the sewer is relatively harsh, it is only bacteria at best, because the virus cannot survive for a long time without a host.
This shows that the deceased carried a certain virus in his body before his death, such as herpes virus HSV, human rucephaloma virus HPV, etc.
But the deceased has been dead for so long, and the virus in the body has long been unable to survive, but it is not yet possible to determine the time of death, and the type of virus is not clear, and the survival time of different viruses after the death of the host is also very different, so the two forensic doctors are still very careful.
After the observation of the body surface, the most critical dissection work is next.
Di Forensic Doctor's main knife, the sharp scalpel slashed through the already rotten corpse surface, and it was easy to cut the corpse surface.
The first is the neck of the deceased, the human neck is very fragile, the carotid artery and central nervous system are here, and the respiratory tract that keeps the human body alive is also here.
Wherever something goes wrong, it leads to death.
The medical examiner soon discovered a problem in the neck of the deceased.
"The lymph nodes in the neck of the deceased were swollen."
Lymph is a colorless, clear fluid containing lymphocytes that circulate in the lymphatic vessels and eventually flow into the veins, through which part of the tissue fluid flows into the blood and circulates reciprocatingly. Lymph is found in all parts of the body and plays a vital role in the body's immune system.
Lymph nodes are mainly composed of lymphoid tissue and lymphatic sinuses, and are covered with dense connective tissue membrane, and communicate with lymphatic vessels, and the membrane extends into the lymph nodes, forming many septums or trabeculae, constituting a mesh scaffold of lymph nodes, whose main function is to filter lymph, remove bacteria and foreign bodies, etc.
Lymphadenopathy, on the other hand, refers to an enlarged lymph node or lymph nodes, which may arise from an increased number of lymphocytes or reticuloendothelial cells, or from infiltrating cells that are not normally present.
After hearing this, Forensic Doctor Song beside him immediately cheered up, and his brain was thinking rapidly, thinking about all possibilities. In the next second, he reached out to probe the deceased's armpits and groin, and found very obvious swollen lymph nodes, all of which were more than one centimeter in diameter.
Forensic Doctor Song turned his head and looked at Forensic Doctor Di.
It just so happened that the forensic doctor was also looking at him.
The two breathed through goggles and looked at each other with medical isolation masks.
They didn't communicate much, and with just one look, they immediately understood each other's thoughts.
Because this idea, at the same time, appeared in the mind of Forensic Di.
There is a high probability that the deceased had AIDS.
