Forensic pursuit

At the end of April, Binnan entered the rainy season ahead of schedule, with two consecutive days of heavy rain, and the 48-hour precipitation was as high as 300mm.Chu Wanning, Nie Fanxin and Chen Anyou put on a raincoat and ran to the outdoor parking lot.However, at a distance of 200 meters, the trousers are still inevitably soaked.

"Scary weather." Chen Anyou started the car, and muttered again, "Sister Xin's mouth is definitely open, don't talk nonsense next time."

Nie Fanxin's eyes fell on the heavy rain curtain outside the window, as if he suddenly thought of something, ignored Chen Anyou, and dialed Wanyi's number with his mobile phone.

The bell only rang twice before being picked up: "Hello." He was probably walking quickly, and the other party's breath was a little unsteady.

Nie Fan asked eagerly, "Are you going to Wangling Mountain?"

"Well, I received a call during the meeting." Wan Yi, as a special guest, participated in the Clinical Forensic Science Research Conference of Binnan University, and will make a speech during the third session of the conference.

Nie Fanxin didn't want her to go: "Where are the rest of the institute?"

"Only Lao Lin and I are in charge of your Nanyun, and Lao Lin is speaking on stage." While speaking, Wan Yi had already gotten into the car.

The driver reminded: "Wan Zhuyan, the road to Wangling Mountain is closed due to mudslides, so we can only detour from the back mountain."

Wan Yi hummed, and then said into the microphone: "Fanxin, do me a favor."

"Take the survey box, right?" Nie Fanxin patted Chen Anyou on the shoulder, signaling him to stop.

"And the flats, I hope the locker room door is unlocked."

Nie Fanxin vaguely remembered Wan Yi's attire today, so he was puzzled and asked, "Aren't you wearing flat shoes when you go out?"

"It was changed at noon, after all, it was a formal occasion."

Because of the heavy rain, Chen Anyou directly drove the car into the underground parking garage of the research institute. Nie Fanxin pushed the door to get out of the car, worried that something might happen to them, and said as he walked, "Wait for me at Anxiang Machinery Factory in the west section of Nanling."

The back room is on the first floor. Nie Fanxin went to the dressing room on the second floor first, found the shoe cabinet for Wan Yi and Wei Lan, and found that it was locked.She called Wan Yi again: "Where are the shoes?"

"Shoebox."

"It's locked, who has the key?"

Wan Yi looked at the helpless Wei Lan beside her, and sighed slightly: "Take the investigation box."

***

At about 10:[-], the two cars will meet.The criminal investigation vehicle led the way, followed by the institute's bus, but Nie Fan found an excuse to get on the institute's bus.

After less than 5 minutes of sitting still, she began to untie her shoelaces slowly.

Wan Yi was surprised by her actions: "What are you doing taking off your shoes?"

Nie Fanxin kept moving his hands: "I'll wear it for you, our shoes are the same size."

Wan Yi pushed one of the shoes back: "No, I usually only move around the bones, and your scope of investigation is wider."

Nie Fan ignored it, untied the lace of the other shoe, and continued to mutter: "Barefoot is convenient. Auntie counted down the benefits of walking barefoot last night. It can strengthen your body and correct your posture..."

"It's different at home. When you go out, especially in rainy days, you can't guard against stones and glass shards."

A pair of police shoes was placed at Wan Yi's feet, and Nie Fanxin said word by word, not being able to refuse, "Then return it to me after you go up the mountain, Wangling Mountain is not safe due to mudslides."

Nie Fanxin seldom talked to her like this, so Wan Yi stared at her firm eyes in a daze. She didn't know what to think, slowly lowered her head, raised her foot into her shoe, and said softly: "If you go up the mountain, you will change back." .”

"No problem." Nie Fanxin agreed superficially, but in fact he had already made up his mind.

The two cars detoured from Yangguang Road to the back mountain, with double flashing lights and fog lights on all the way, and the wipers were switched to the maximum gear, but the road was still difficult.

The driver stretched his neck, looked at the road ahead where no cars could be seen, and asked loudly, "Who is driving in the criminal investigation team? It's too fierce."

Nie Fanxin put a pair of shoe covers on his feet, and complained: "That guy Chen Anyou, usually timid, only drives hard."

Wan Yi told the driver for the third time: "Xiao Li, drive slowly and put safety first."

"Understood, don't worry Wan Zhuyan."

Therefore, the four of them finally arrived at the scene.In the vegetable garden of a farmer on the northern slope of Wangling Mountain, there was a lot of water, and a temporary shed was built in an area of ​​less than 15 square meters, which was surrounded by police and police.

Wan Yi and Wei Lan stepped into the cordon with the bamboo pole that Nie Fanxin chopped down.

"Fanxin." She was about to take off her shoes, but there was no one beside her.

"Wan Xiaoyu, what are you wearing?" Nie Fanxin had already slipped up to the head of the household and helped other colleagues take notes.

Wan Yi didn't have anything to do, and she didn't want to delay, so she didn't bother.She put on a mask and gloves, closed her umbrella and walked towards the location of the bones indicated by the trace inspection.

"what's the situation?"

The police from the police station replied to her: "Last night, there was a mudslide, and things on the mountain rushed down. The head of the household opened the woven bag out of curiosity, good guy, he just turned to bones."

Wan Yi didn't find any clothes, so she asked, "Where are the clothes of the deceased?"

The policeman shook his head: "Could it have rotted?"

"Impossible, the corpse is not completely ossified, look here." Wan Yi took the tweezers and gently fiddled with the dirty gray soft tissue on the tibia.

Even though the corpse was close to ossification and the stench was greatly reduced, the policemen still frowned instantly.

"Male or female?"

Wan Yi passed a careful inspection: "The pelvis is wide and shallow, and the included angle is close to a right angle, female."

"What about the age? The cause of death? What was the approximate time of death?"

Wan Yi looked up at him, but didn't answer.

The policeman asked: "Forensic doctor Wan?"

Wan Yi stood up and looked around: "Take me along the path around the mudslide."

"No, it's dangerous over there."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you don't take it to the valley." Wan Yi said, picked up the umbrella next to her, and walked out of the shed.

The policeman went out on his heels and shouted towards the crowd: "Come here, a lesbian, help me."

"No, they also have work at hand." Wan Yi held up an umbrella, and just raised her head, her gaze caught Nie Fanxin who was getting closer to her.

"The separation of your forensic doctors and trace inspections from our public security system is equivalent to losing a piece of heart. Of course, the heart needs to be protected."

Wan Yi only listens to flattery.She nodded slightly, and her eyes stayed on Nie Fanxin, who was walking vigorously from beginning to end, and the calf with rolled trouser legs, shining white.

Nie Fan stood firm, pursed her lips and gave Wan Yi a look, and then asked the policeman, "What's the matter?"

"Forensic Physician Wan followed us up the mountain. If we want to find someone to help, it is always inconvenient for gay men."

"Let's go."

"Your shoes?" Wearing high heels for work, the police expressed doubts about Nie Fanxin's work attitude.

Walking with shoe covers on bare feet was too slippery, Nie Fanxin almost stumbled, so he had to go back to the parking lot and put on Wan Yi's shoes.Fortunately, the heels are not too high, so I can barely handle them.

"It's a meeting, I didn't have time to change it. What are you talking about, Rory, hurry up." Nie Fanxin stretched out his hand vigorously, and naturally snatched the umbrella from Wan Yi's hand.

Wan Yi declined: "I'll come, it's not convenient for you to walk."

Nie Fanxin didn't give it to her: "I'm also surprised that I almost don't wear high heels, but it's still okay."

"It shows a strong sense of balance."

Nie Fanxin frowned: "So you're welcome, Doctor Wan, please."

The policeman behind him watched the two whispering intimately, thinking that they knew each other before, and suddenly felt sorry for the time of the introduction.He quickened his pace and walked away from the crowd. He said: "Last night, there was a mudslide in Wangling Mountain due to the heavy rain, and it stopped flowing at about 1:[-] in the morning. There is a lot of sediment along the way, which is between the sand-carrying water flow and the landslide. The water mixes and rushes down."

Wan Yi held Nie Fanxin's outstretched hand tightly, climbed up the mountain, adjusted her breath and said, "How long? How wide is the flow?"

The police pointed to the boulder 20 meters away: "Here, the highest point nearby, you can see the whole picture from a distance."

Nie Fan hurriedly asked, "Is it safe? Does anyone go up the boulder? Is there a lot of moss?"

"Mountain climbing enthusiasts must go, there are dozens if not hundreds of them every day."

Nie Fanxin stared at the height of the boulder, showing worry, turned his head and asked in a low voice: "Wan Xiaoyu, tell me what you want to know, Po is too trembling."

"Help you preliminarily determine the place to dump the body." During the recent academic seminar, Wan Yi didn't get enough rest for several days, and coupled with the sudden change in the weather, she coughed a bit last night.So she stopped trying to be brave, knowing Nie Fanxin's extraordinary memory, she gave it to her with confidence.

"How to be sure?"

"Is there a winding mountain road in the high part of the flow range?" Wan Yi used her finger as a pen to draw on her palm, "The mudslide flows from top to bottom, with hillsides on both sides and valleys in the middle. First determine the starting point, and then investigate along the road."

Nie Fanxin withdrew his hand with a hum, and his throat slipped unconsciously.Itching, she clasped the palm of the other hand subconsciously, and said thoughtfully: "Why is it a high place? The murderer can also drag a woven bag and abandon the body when climbing the mountain."

"There were multiple comminuted fractures on the body of the deceased, which could only be formed by throwing the body down from a high place."

The policeman held on to the suspicious point in his heart: "Forensic Doctor Wan, time of death?"

Only then did Wan Yi reply to him: "Based on the weather and changes in the bones, it is estimated that it will be between one and a half months to three months."

"cause of death?"

"Temporarily unknown, only the rose color on the surface of the neck of the deceased's teeth has been observed."

"Rose teeth? Suffocated to death?" Two years ago, Nie Fanxin investigated a vendetta case, and the deceased showed the same behavior.

"It does appear more often in death cases of suffocation, but it also appears in non-suffocation death cases such as electric shock death, craniocerebral injury death, hemorrhagic shock death, and poisoning death. Therefore, it can only be used as an auxiliary standard for judging the cause of death."

Nie Fanxin followed her words to analyze: "So, if we roughly determine the location of the body dumping, we can call up the monitoring and check for suspicious vehicles."

The policeman has already stepped forward: "What are you waiting for, let's go."

"Okay." Nie Fanxin handed the umbrella to Wan Yi, and put on the hat of the raincoat.As soon as she turned around, her right hand was gently held by a slightly cool palm, and her warm voice flowed into her cochlea, "Be obedient, change your shoes."

The author has something to say: rose tooth: a special term in forensic science.

The focus of this chapter: changing shoes.
