Forensics

Another early morning, in the northwest of Penang City, the Penang landfill.

The temperature is gradually rising, and the garbage trucks that come out at night have collected the garbage in half of the city.

Looking down from a height, here is a quite shocking scene.All kinds of colorful garbage piled up into high hills.

There is a huge pothole in the center of the garbage dump. The garbage brought from all over the west of the city is piled up here by carts and forklifts, and then buried, and a steady stream of garbage is thrown into the deep pit.

Every day, hundreds of tons of garbage are landfilled here.

The working garbage truck roared.

In the garbage dump, the smell of all kinds of garbage gathered together, exuding a strong smell.

In such a harsh working environment, some workers are finally landfilling the garbage.Wearing special shoes and thick gloves, they rummaged through the trash.

The workers will pick out harmful substances that are inconvenient to landfill, and also pick out some waste that should not be thrown here and can be recycled.

They've developed a skill to quickly tell the value of trash, and even judge what's inside from the outside.

Suddenly, a staff member stopped. He pointed to a packed suitcase and said, "What's in it?"

The suitcase seemed to be in good condition, but it was locked, tied up with tape, and wrapped several times.The case is heavy and a bit warped.At this time, a coffee-colored liquid seeped from the inside out, and it smelled of a strong and special odor.

The foreman shook his head: "It's a bit strange."

Several people looked at each other, and they had a vague premonition in their hearts.

"Just take it apart and have a look." A brave man took it over, cut the tape on the box, and picked the lock with a few strokes.

The box was opened, followed by a foul smell, the worker yelled, stepped back a few steps, and almost fell on the garbage mountain.

Another worker came forward to check, and the old man, who was used to seeing all kinds of garbage, almost vomited it out.

The box was full of body parts.

Workers at the dump rushed to call the police.

It has been more than a year since there was a vicious dismemberment case in Penang. As soon as the case was reported to the General Bureau, the D Bureau sent it to the Special Criminal Division to handle it.

Not long after Shen Junci arrived at the Municipal Bureau, he was called into the car. Lu Ying was still driving, and the whole team set off to the garbage dump.

Bai Meng introduced to them that what they found this time was a suitcase containing body parts.

Qi Yi'an was a little worried, and frowned and asked Shen Junci: "Teacher, there is no characteristic on this corpse, will it be difficult to determine the identity of the corpse?"

Shen Junci originally leaned aside and closed his eyes to rest, but now he opened his eyes and shook his head: "Dismembering corpses is a characteristic in itself."

Qi Yi'an asked: "Then... what kind of characteristic is it?"

Shen Junci asked him: "If there is a female corpse in front of you, which is cut from the navel, divided into two parts, the internal organs are neatly stacked, and the blood is drained, what will you think of?"

His voice was cold, but what he described was extremely cruel.

Qi Yi'an was still thinking hard at the side, and Gu Yanchen answered at the side: "Black dahlia."

This is an unsolved case that happened in California, country M. A young girl was brutally dismembered. Decades have passed, and the murderer has not been caught yet.

Shen Junci asked again: "If you cut a corpse into several pieces and heated it in a pressure cooker, what would you think of?"

"Cutting several pieces? 1.19 Normal University Corpse Dismemberment Case?" This time Bai Meng gave the answer first.

This is also an unsolved case many years ago, and the victim was a schoolgirl.

Shen Junci continued: "If you hide a human head in a doll..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Ying rushed to answer: "HELLOKETTY's hidden corpse case."

Qi Yi'an was stunned for a moment, as a forensic doctor, he didn't answer any of the three questions just now.

However, Forensic Doctor Qian seemed to have been opened up to Ren and Du's two veins, and had an epiphany: "The method of dismembering the body is like the murderer's signature!"

Different from death methods such as suffocation, drowning, stabbing, burning, and electrocution, dismemberment has its own characteristics.

Dividing a person into pieces is as cruel as a beast.

But it seems that from ancient times to the present, many murderers love to dismember the corpse, and many sensational cases also have the dismemberment step.This method of handling is mainly to cover up the crime and facilitate the disposal of the body, which also represents the ultimate brutality of the murderer.

Shen Junci concluded: "The case of dismembering the body can instead leave more clues."

For forensic doctors, different murderers dismember the corpse, the location and method of cutting the knife, the size of the body parts, and the way the internal organs are handled vary in thousands of ways.The code that can solve the case is hidden in it.

It was already 09:30 in the morning when the people from the Special Criminal Section arrived at the landfill.

Lu Ying parked the car around the garbage dump, and Gu Yanchen was about to lead everyone in.

Looking at the endless mountain of garbage in front of him, Qi Yi'an couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Why is there so much garbage?"

Bai Meng squinted her eyes and looked at the magnificent garbage dump, pinched her nose and said something quite philosophical: "When people are alive, they are creating garbage."

The workers did not dare to move the site, but used a forklift to push away the nearby garbage and cleared a path.

Because they were afraid that they would scratch their feet, the leader of the garbage dump specially brought them a few pairs of special rubber shoes and protective work clothes.After putting on their clothes, everyone was fully armed.

Even so, that section of the road is still full of potholes and not easy to walk.

As time went on, the weather gradually became hotter.

The summer temperature here can reach a maximum of more than 40 degrees, which is an out-and-out big stove.

The high temperature, coupled with the exposed corpses, attracted flies throughout the dump, and all kinds of flies buzzed around the area.

Shen Junci first looked up at the high garbage mountain in front of him, then squatted down facing the corpse without changing his expression, and he and Qi Yi'an began to check.

The two first observed the box soaked in body fluids, and then listened to the workers talk about the whole process of discovering the body parts.

The lid of the box was fully opened, and there were two arms and two legs of a woman inside. The limbs were roughly bent from the joints, and the fractures were wrapped with plastic wrap. Those limbs were put together in a strange way in the box. , the top hand is also painted with pink nail polish...

Seeing this scene, Bai Meng couldn't bear to look directly at him, and hurriedly turned his head: "It's so cruel..."

Shen Junci waited for Qi Yian to take a good photo, and then began the examination of the corpse form.

He calmly said: "The deceased was a young woman. The body in this suitcase is not complete, so there may be other suitcases or scattered corpses."

Gu Yanchen communicated well with the person in charge of the garbage dump and told them not to fill up the garbage in the garbage dump for the time being, and continue to look for the rest of the body parts.

Shen Junci lowered his head and observed carefully: "The broken part is uneven, and there are multiple scratches. The wound was cut by an axe, and there is no living reaction. According to the current temperature, the degree of decay of the corpse and the state of rigor, the deceased died. The time was about a day ago, and it is estimated that the body was dismembered after the murder."

Then he carefully observed the traces on the corpse, and carefully observed the exposed bones: "The age of the deceased was about 20 years old."

Qi Yi'an was recording on the side.

Shen Junci's fingertips ran across the corpse: "The following are just analysis and speculation, and don't need to be recorded in the autopsy report. The person who dismembered the corpse may be a male."

Gu Yanchen asked: "What is the basis for the judgment?"

Shen Jun said: "It's mainly the cut marks on the corpse, which was very strong and hasty. The other party is a novice. From the perspective of strength, it is unlikely to be a female corpse divider."

Gu Yanchen nodded, agreeing with his conclusion.

Shen Junci took a closer look and said, "Also, based on the direction and marks of the knife, the person who dismembered the corpse may be left-handed."

Gu Yanchen also remembered this point.

Beside them, Lu Ying and Bai Meng had already inspected the scene.

This corpse throwing scene is different from the usual ones, the regular footprints and fingerprints are not visible.

Gu Yanchen asked the leader in charge: "Can you confirm where this garbage was delivered?"

If they can be sure, they can push back to find the monitoring near the trash can, so as to find the murderer.

The leader frowned: "Every day, half of the city's domestic waste is transported here, and the name of this waste is not written... We don't know where it is delivered."

Gu Yanchen asked again: "What kind of garbage is brought in by the same truck?"

The leader pointed to them and divided a general area: "After the garbage was transported, it has basically not been turned over. It's hard to say how far it is. At least the surrounding area should be together."

Gu Yanchen said: "Please help us shovel all the garbage around here, and bring it back to the Municipal Bureau for inspection."

The leader hurriedly called people and cars over.

This side has just checked here, and suddenly another good news came from another part of the garbage dump. A worker shouted from a distance: "We found another suitcase with a corpse here!"

Gu Yanchen and Shen Junci listened, and crossed half of the garbage dump again. This time, they found another box of corpses.

The boxes were exactly the same. When I opened it, I found that this box was the torso, and the internal organs were still in the corpse. The head of the corpse was wrapped in plastic wrap and stuffed in a corner.

Shen Junci looked at it and said: "The murderer probably wanted to throw the body in a suitcase at first, but the suitcase he bought was not big enough, so he bought another same suitcase, cut off the limbs of the deceased, separated the head from the torso, They were packed in two boxes respectively, so that the corpses could be thrown out smoothly."

Just before noon, Gu Yanchen and the garbage dump borrowed a garbage truck and moved all the garbage next to the two boxes of body parts to it.

Shen Junci and Qi Yi'an also collected the body parts and sent them to a corpse truck.

When they arrived at the city bureau, the garbage truck was parked downstairs, and Gu Yanchen asked Bai Meng and the others to seek help from the criminal police team.

Team Shao's entire team came down from upstairs. After sorting the garbage, they discarded the useless ones, and moved the useful ones to the meeting room upstairs for further screening.

Lu Ying moved up and down the building several times, and said depressedly: "I know the importance of sorting garbage this time..."

Bai Meng was so choked that tears flowed out, and she held her breath and kept searching.

Gu Yanchen put the objects they found with clues in one place.

Those rubbish seem to be disorganized, but they are very rewarding when they are searched carefully.

In the past tense, Lu Ying never thought that there would be so much information hidden in the trash.

The shelf life of milk cartons can be delineated within the time range, and the delivery list can be known about the area.Taxi tickets, supermarket receipts, takeaway orders... soon these things were collected in one place.

The areas where the two corpses were thrown out became more and more certain, and the approximate time range was drawn.

Bai Meng saw that there was progress, so he took the whiteboard, sorted out all the information, and wrote it down one by one.

The conference room was in full swing.

Bureau D blocked his nostrils with two rolls of toilet paper, and came to inspect the work: "The nature of this case is too bad, you must search hard, and don't miss any clues."

Just as the old bureau chief was about to go out, he turned back suddenly and said in a low voice, "Also, you must pack it up when you're done. Don't close the windows tonight and let the wind blow all night, or this house won't be able to treat people."

At noon, in the forensic room of the Penang City Council, the autopsy was also being carried out simultaneously.

Since the body had been placed for a day after being dismembered, the body had begun to decompose, and some corpse fluid had leaked out in some places.

Shen Junci opened the plastic wrap covering the head layer by layer, and laid the head flat on the dissecting table. The deceased was a young girl with shoulder-length hair, naked.

Qi Yi'an helped him put the body back together, and put the limbs in their proper positions. Due to the broken arms and legs, the whole corpse looked like a barbie doll whose limbs had been twisted and dismembered.

If he had just left the campus and saw such a mutilated corpse, Qi Yi'an would probably be a little dazed, even a little scared.

But now that he has worked in the forensic center for several months and has seen a lot of corpses, he has calmed down a lot and is responsible for recording.

Shen Junci made further observations on the corpse: "The victim's body was divided into six pieces, and the junctions were cut with an ax from the bone seam. The murderer broke the deceased's elbows and feet in order to put the body in the suitcase. the wrist joint."

Then he said to Qi Yi'an, "Take your fingerprints first."

Qi Yi'an suppressed the female corpse's fingerprint, and scanned it into the computer system on the side for inspection.

Shen Junci focused on dissecting the torso of the female corpse,

Forensic doctor Shen skillfully cut open the abdominal cavity with a scalpel and separated the sternum: "The deceased's weight is estimated to be about 110 catties. Congestion and edema in the lungs, edema in the throat, intact stomach wall, no bleeding, and about 120 milliliters of undigested food in the stomach. "

While speaking, he took out the stomach of the deceased, and Qi Yi'an handed him a beaker and funnel, and the two of them cooperated to release the contents of the stomach.

The chyme was put into the cup, and immediately there was a sour smell of vomiting in the dissection room.

Shen Jun resigned: "There are not many contents in the stomach, most of them are drinks. According to the digestion situation, the estimated time of death is about an hour after eating. Wait for you to send the contents of the stomach and the blood for testing."

Qi Yi'an: "Okay, I'll fill out a form later."

Shen Jun resigned: "I also want to do a staining test on spleen slices."

"There are about 200ml of urine in the bladder, there are traces of invasion, and there are sperm spots in the body..."

With DNA left, the police can also find the murderer more easily.

The autopsy was completed quickly, and Shen Junci sewed up the corpse so that the family members could claim the corpse.In the end, he wiped off the stains on the woman's face and helped her tidy up her remains.

Now that the deceased is deceased, they can only solve the case as soon as possible and comfort the souls of the dead.

Qi Yi'an sorted out all the equipment and sent the corpse to storage.

After working for several hours, Shen Junci was free. He felt that his body was tainted with the smell of a lot of garbage and corpses, so he went to the shower room next door to take a shower.

After changing clothes and returning, Shen Jun took 1% pagoda red aqueous solution and prepared to do staining test on spleen slices.

When Gu Yanchen heard that the autopsy was completed, he also rushed over from the criminal investigation building.

Before he could speak, he was stopped by Shen Junci.

Gu Yanchen saw two words in Shen Junci's eyes - dislike.

Gu Dui sniffed his sleeve: "Is the smell very strong?"

He stayed in the garbage dump for most of the day, and now he can't smell anything.

Shen Junci said euphemistically: "You should also go to the shower here to take a bath. When you come out, the test results on my side are probably about the same."

03:30 p.m., Forensic Examination Center.

Gu Yanchen came out of the bathroom in the forensic building, wiping his hair.

Shen Junci was still concentrating on dyeing the slices.

Gu Yanchen took out his mobile phone: "You haven't had much lunch, have you? Would you like some afternoon tea? I'll treat you and order a takeaway."

Qi Yi'an was not polite and ordered a meal.

Gu Yanchen asked Shen Junci: "What about you? Do you want duck blood vermicelli soup?"

Some time ago, Shen Junci was fed by Gu Yanchen to eat all kinds of blood. He even ordered fresh duck blood for the hot pot. If he didn't have blood, he ordered all kinds of livers, foie gras, pork liver, chicken liver...

In the end, Shen Junci was completely tired of eating, and felt sick to his stomach when he saw red things.

He tactfully refused: "Just have something light."

Gu Yanchen said, "Then I'll get you some wanton noodles?"

Shen Junci's hands didn't stop: "Wantun wants fresh shrimp."

Gu Yanchen: "Understood, I won't add coriander to you."

While waiting for the takeaway, Qi Yi'an asked from the side: "Captain Gu, do you gain a lot from digging through those garbage?"

Gu Yanchen said: "It's okay. Based on various information, we have located two garbage spots and the time when the garbage was put in. We are restoring the murderer's movement line at that time. As long as we find the monitoring, we can confirm the person who threw the corpse."

The current urban monitoring installations are everywhere. As long as the time and place are determined, it is difficult to not be discovered when throwing garbage in the city, and it is such a large suitcase.

Qi Yi'an felt very strange: "Is it true that you can find so many clues through the trash?"

Gu Yanchen said: "Dr. Li Changyu once said in the past that every time he went home, he would check what garbage his wife threw away, so that he would know exactly what his wife did in a day. He once cracked a famous In unsolved cases, the important evidence was dug out from the garbage many years ago. According to the DNA on a few chicken bones and a ticket, the murderer was locked. Therefore, finding the time and location from the garbage is only the most basic, and sometimes It can help the police solve the case.”

They were chatting, while Shen Junci was still busy with his head down.

Hearing this, Forensic Shen's fingers snapped.

"...People always leave clues inadvertently." Gu Yanchen said, kicking the trash can beside him, and gave Qi Yi'an an example, "It's like now, the yogurt in this trash can should be your drink Yes, there is your DNA on the straw and lid. If you are involved in the case, you are already locked."

Qi Yi'an hurriedly took a look at it, because he had been away from work today, the trash can in the forensic room was empty, only a few tissues and a small yogurt box.The yogurt box is the kind with a paper lid, which is also very common.

It was indeed what he drank in the morning, licked the lid of the yogurt, and threw it in the trash can. Now he doesn't quite remember the specific situation at that time.

Qi Yi'an couldn't figure it out: "Gu Dui, why do you judge that this yogurt is for me and not for my master? Also, Song Qiancheng will come over at any time."

Gu Yanchen explained: "Your master is used to scraping the packaging with a straw. After drinking, he will wrap the straw with wrapping paper, and finally put it together before throwing it away. Most of the yogurt Song Qiancheng drinks is bottled. Yes, and he always brings some snacks when he comes here, why would he bring a box of yogurt to throw out the trash by himself?"

He paused at this point, "And the most important point..."

Shen Junci turned his head from the side with a tacit understanding, and looked at the little apprentice who didn't ask himself: "And the most important point, even if he didn't confirm it just now, after listening to your words, he can confirm it now."

Qi Yi'an: "..."

He suddenly realized that he had been tricked again.

Gu Yanchen stopped teasing him, and looked at the table: "The result came out?"

Shen Junci took off his mask, looked up from the microscope and said, "It has been confirmed. After staining, mast cells and eosinophils can be seen in the spleen section."

Both Qi Yi'an and Gu Yanchen came over and leaned over to his desk.Qi Yi'an looked at the staining results through the microscope.

Gu Yanchen was confused by this professional term: "What does this mean?"

"Combined with lung and throat edema..." Shen Junci explained, "The cause of death of the deceased was anaphylactic shock."

Qi Yi'an frowned: "Anaphylactic shock, was that an accident? Why didn't you call the police, and even brutally dismembered the dead body?"

Shen Jun said: "I judge, it's because the allergens are special."

He printed out a test sheet and handed it over: "According to the test results, the deceased may have taken gamma-hydroxybutyric acid before his death."

Gu Yanchen has also heard of this drug: "Is it the legendary 'obedient water'?"

Shen Junci nodded: "This drug is colorless and odorless. It can suppress the central nervous system and cause people to temporarily lose memory. It is a commonly used anesthetic and a new type of drug. Many men will use this drug to rape girls, but in fact this drug The medicine is extremely dangerous, it can cause vomiting and suffocation, and there is a certain chance of causing allergies, and even respiratory and cardiac arrest.”

Qi Yi'an sorted out his thoughts: "That is to say, the deceased may have been drugged, but was allergic to the drug, leading to shock and death?"

Shen Jun resigned: "The deceased was caused by taking drugs. Naturally, the murderer wanted to destroy the body and wipe out any traces, in order to escape punishment."

The few people had just talked here, when the computer on the side made a beeping sound, indicating that the fingerprint search had results, and the identity of the deceased had also been confirmed.

Qi Yi'an looked at the information on the computer: "This girl is only 22 years old this year, her name is Lu Yingying, and she is a college student at Penang University."

Gu Yanchen said: "You send a copy to Bai Meng and ask her to contact her family as soon as possible."

They just picked up the takeaway and started eating, and good news came from the group.

Bai Meng: "Team Gu, I found a video of the person throwing the corpse according to the surveillance near the trash can."

A surveillance video was quickly sent over.

In the middle of the night, a man in black, wearing a mask and hat, and pulling a suitcase tightly came into the picture. The man looked around, acting suspiciously. He threw the suitcase in the trash can and flipped it over. Covered the suitcase with other rubbish.That box was exactly the body throwing tool that the police found.

Afterwards, the man wandered around for a long time to confirm that no one had noticed anything unusual, and then he returned to a car and drove away.

The Skynet system quickly found the owner's name based on the license plate number.

After identifying the suspect, the Special Criminal Division quickly sorted out the evidence in hand, issued a police notice, and launched a wanted arrest for the murderer.

That night, a 32-year-old man was arrested and arrested.

His name was Wang Shaohui, and he dated Lu Yingying, who was still in school, on the grounds of recruitment etiquette and a part-time job. Wang Shaohui took advantage of Lu Yingying's unpreparedness, drugged her drink, and took her back to his home where he lived alone. As a result, Lu Yingying died.

Instead of calling the police, Wang Shaohui decided to throw the body away. He wanted to put Lu Yingying's body in a suitcase, but the suitcase was not big enough, so he had to buy another one.

Fearing that the matter would be revealed, Wang Shaohui brutally dismembered Lu Yingying's body and deliberately threw it in two different locations a few kilometers apart.The police quickly found the woman's body, determined the cause of death, and arrested him.

The surveillance video of the abandoned corpse, the semen spots in the female corpse, the purchase records of the suitcase, the chat records before and after, all kinds of irrefutable evidence point to Wang Shaohui as the murderer.

And this Wang Shaohui is really left-handed, as Shen Junci said.

Wang Shaohui confessed that he became lustful, seduced and raped the girl, murdered and dismembered the whole process, and then he also explained the channel for buying obedient water.

On the second day, the Penang police quickly dispatched to arrest them, seized a large amount of water, and brought several people involved to justice.

The police announcement was subsequently released, which was very gratifying.

The next morning, the weather was fine.

Gu Yanchen went downstairs to walk the dog. Just as he was about to go home, he saw Shen Junci going downstairs with a bag of garbage.

Gu Yanchen greeted him from a long distance: "Forensic doctor Shen, good morning."

Excitement flashed in Wuliang's eyes, he stuck out his tongue and gasped, ready to abandon Gu Yanchen at any moment, and ran towards Shen Junci.

Shen Junci seemed to have seen them, but he didn't seem to.

Forensic doctor Shen's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Then he turned around 180 degrees, carried the trash, and went back upstairs again.

Wuliang put away his tongue and straightened his head, feeling a little confused.

It looked at Shen Junci's back suspiciously, and then at Gu Yanchen.

Gu Yanchen looked sideways at the trash can ten meters away from him, thoughtfully.

The author has something to say:

Gu Yanchen: I get up early to walk the dog, but you walk the garbage?I won't go crazy enough to dig through the trash can.

Shen Junci: Please don't pick horses, safety first.
