Someone has a crush on Forensic Gu

Chapter 38 The Man Who Lives in the Corner

The stomach was removed, so there was no way to judge the time of death by emptying the stomach. Gu Yuan could only roughly calculate the time of death between two and five in the afternoon based on the degree of food digestion in the small intestine.

The body was severely charred, and the face and fingerprints could not be confirmed. The identity of the deceased has become a mystery. Now the criminal police can only rely on the interrogation and questioning of the landlord and surrounding personnel to clarify the identity of the deceased.

"The deceased was a male, about 55 years old, 167 cm tall, weighing about 50 kg, with a clean airway. It can be confirmed that he died before the fire. The time of death was between [-]:[-] p.m. and [-]:[-] p.m. Judging from the shape of the damage, the murder weapon should be something similar to a hammer.

The deceased had undergone a total gastrectomy before his death. From the degree of healing, it is roughly estimated that the operation time should be between two months and half a year. "

Li Meng reported the information obtained from the autopsy to Xiao Ze. Until 11 o'clock in the evening, there was still no substantial progress at the scene. On the one hand, the fire almost swallowed all the physical evidence; Prove the identity of the deceased.

"You mean...you don't know who lives in the house?"

Wang Yue was skeptical about the landlord's answer. Even if his house was always vacant, he should visit it often. He didn't even know who lived in the house?

"This house is a clear water house. It has not been renovated, and the area is small. It is not easy to rent out. I am usually busy with work, so I put the information on the rental platform. No one asked for a long time. I am planning to sell the house. Go, I'm also surprised that something like this happened!"

The landlord seemed very regretful: "If I knew it was such a trouble, I would have sold it earlier!"

Wang Yue looked up at the room where the explosion occurred. The room was located on the far left of the fourth floor.

This building is a commercial building, which is built in a row and only reaches the height of the fourth floor.

The first floor is a shop selling commodities and snacks, with two small supermarkets in between. The second to fourth floors are all rooms of Ruyi Hotel. There are 10 rooms on the second and third floors respectively, and only 7 rooms on the fourth floor. You can stay, two of the rooms are used to store sundries, and the remaining one, which is the leftmost room where the explosion occurred, does not belong to the Ruyi Hotel.

There is an external closed staircase on the left and right sides of this row of houses. The staircase on the right has been renovated by the hotel and is now dedicated to the hotel. The staircase on the left is still in its original state, with most of the outer wall peeling off.

In order to prevent people from entering the hotel through the stairs on the left, the hotel has sealed off the passage connecting the second and third floors to the left stairs. The leftmost room on the fourth floor does not belong to the hotel, so it is sealed off from the edge of the second room on the left. Dead, abruptly excluded the first room on the left.

In other words, you can only enter the clean water room on the fourth floor through the dilapidated stairs on the left.

Xiao Ze stood at the door of the room at the end of the fourth floor. Before entering, he realized that something was wrong. The door of this room looked very dilapidated. The old wooden door had been broken by the explosion. , the incomplete door is even more precarious, as long as it is touched lightly, it will fall from the door frame. The lock on the door has long since disappeared, and the chain eye has not seen it.

The room on the fourth floor that fell on the tail looked particularly abrupt, and it gave people a gloomy feeling, but after the homicide, it had a more heavy atmosphere.

People from the trace inspection team are extracting as much evidence as possible, but according to Xiao Ze's experience, the possibility of extracting useful evidence is very small.

Everything that can be burned on the spot has been burned, and we can only roughly see the previous condition of the house.

The 40-square-meter house is divided into one bedroom and one living room. Although the walls have been burnt black, the original cement walls can still be seen. Large accumulations of sand.

There are no aluminum alloy window frames in this house, and the window openings look empty. When the fire started, the flames rushed out of the windows, and burned all the walls above the fourth floor to black. The situation at that time was like a burning stove. On the platform, oxygen kept pouring in, and the fire became more and more prosperous.

A pile of burnt black porcelain bowl fragments were scattered in the corner of the wall, which may have been shattered before, or may have been shattered during the explosion, in short, none survived.

There was still a blackened iron basin left at the scene. One side was deeply sunken and the mouth fell downward on the ashes. It should be the depression formed by the explosion and bounced to the wall.

There is a pit with a diameter of one meter on the ground one meter away from the iron basin, which was formed by the source of the explosion.

Looking down through this pit, you can see the devastated scene on the third floor. Below it should be a living room layout. The broken tea table is pressed by cement blocks, the glass on the surface has been broken into slag, and the burnt soot keeps falling down. , ignited the sofa on the third floor, and the fire gradually spread to the bedroom.

Fortunately, there was no occupant in room 301 when the explosion occurred, otherwise they would either die or be injured.

"Judging from the traces at the scene, the explosion is likely to be a small gas tank, because we found parts of the gas stove in the room, which were of very low quality. When it exploded, it was blown up directly, and part of it fell in the corner of the room. , the other part should have flown out from the window sill...and the deceased did not seem to have lived here for a long time, because there are too few traces of life."

Yan Ji came to this conclusion after carefully inspecting the scene.

The criminal police checked the people living in the surrounding area, and was surprised to find that no one knew the people who lived in the corner of the fourth floor, and some even started talking about superstition...

"Ten years ago, when this house was still under construction, a decoration worker lived in it. Later, the worker was beaten to death by debt collectors, and he died in the room on the fourth floor. The single room was originally to be brought The guest house has been vacant since this incident.

People who do business pay attention to Feng Shui, and feel that this house has been dead, and the aura is wrong, so they are unwilling to rent this house, so it has been vacant and no one has rented it. The clean water room has not been renovated, and it has been empty for many years. No... About five years ago, a woman fell from the window of the room on the fourth floor for some reason. It was said that she committed suicide. Since then, no one has dared to approach her.

In order to prevent anyone from stepping into that area, the owner of Ruyi Hotel installed a wooden door and locked the door until the house was finally bought three years ago, but he didn’t know What to do after buying it, it has been empty there...No one usually goes to see it..."

"You should have seen people coming in and out from the stairs on the left!" Wang Yue asked the shop owner who lived opposite Ruyi Hotel.

"There is so much traffic here, and the stairway is behind that building, even if he passed by me, I don't know he lives in it... Besides, if you want to live in it secretly, you must wait I only come out when no one is around, why don't you ask someone else, I really don't know..."

The shop owner was in a hurry to close the stall, and didn't want to waste too much time.

Wang Yue thought for a while: "Who can see the location of the stairs?"

"It's hard to say... there will be a few cars parked behind the building, maybe people who parked there may have seen it."

Seeing that the boss was rushing to close the stall, Wang Yue took out his mobile phone and checked the time. It was already 11:[-] p.m.

Without proving the identity of the deceased, the next step of the investigation could not be carried out. Xiao Ze had to call Gu Yuan to ask if there was any news to provide.

"The deceased had undergone a total gastrectomy. The gastrointestinal surgery department of the hospital can definitely find the operation records, but the scope is too wide. There are five hospitals in Yanhai City alone that can perform such operations, and the hospital's patients are very mobile."

It is indeed not a good way to find medical records from the hospital. It may take a lot of time and manpower to get the answer.

Gu Yuan hung up the phone. His hair was still dripping water just after taking a shower. He wiped it casually with a white towel on his shoulders a few times. The mist fell on the eyelashes, adding a bit of aura to the gloomy eyes.

Mo Lin suddenly sent a text message: [Open the door. 】

Gu Yuan: [? 】

Mo Lin: [I'm at your door. 】

Gu Yuan unconsciously tightened his knuckles holding the phone: 【I fell asleep. 】

Mo Lin: [The identity of the deceased has not yet been determined, you should not be able to sleep, let's sit down and talk? 】

Before Gu Yuan opened the door, his heartbeat began to speed up unconsciously. He walked to the security door, looked out through the peephole, and found that Mo Lin had already changed into a suit of clothes.

He was wearing a black shallow sweater, his hair seemed to have just been washed, and it lay softly on his forehead, making him look a few years younger.

He took a deep breath and opened the door.

Mo Lin frowned helplessly as he looked at the "kid" who had just taken a shower and hadn't even dried his hair, his eyes were full of doting: "I remember telling you that you have to dry your hair before you can sleep .”

Gu Yuan lowered his head, took a step back, and made way for the other party to come in.

Mo Lin sat down on the sofa unceremoniously as if he had returned to his own home, and then looked up at Gu Yuan who was still standing at the door: "You stand so far... I won't eat you... "

Gu Yuan was deliberately keeping a distance from him, he always believed that this sudden heartbeat would disappear one day.

People always have a bit of curiosity when facing unknown things. After the curiosity passes, everything will eventually return to normal, so Gu Yuan doesn't think he should respond to this heartbeat.

On the contrary, he felt that he should keep a little distance from the other party.

Gu Yuan walked over, moved a small bench and sat opposite the sofa: "Aren't you going to talk about the case?"

Gu Yuan is looking forward to what new discoveries will be made from Mo Lin's perspective.

"Who said I'm here to talk about the case today... I'm here to talk to you about emotional issues..." Mo Lin fell down on the sofa, with his arms crossed behind his neck, his eyelids slightly closed, and his expression suddenly changed Become a little less bright.

"When you were disinfecting Li Meng today... you got too close... I'm not happy..."

When Mo Lin said this, his expression was obviously serious, but there was a rare childishness in his tone, which made Gu Yuan unable to get angry with him.
