Forensics

The body was quickly transported to the forensic autopsy room of the Penang City Council.

The first step that Shen Junci took Qi Yian to do was to check clothes. Under the quiet and soft light of the forensic dissection room, it would be clearer than the scene. Qi Yian took pictures and recorded while observing.

Since the rigor had begun to form, it was a bit difficult to take off the clothes, Shen Junci didn't want to cut the clothes to destroy the evidence, and the two of them spent a while.

Taking off the clothes is the post-mortem inspection. This step is mainly about looking, smelling, and touching. Qi Yi'an is taking pictures while filling out the autopsy form.

It took about half an hour to complete these preparatory steps. After the second temperature measurement of the corpse, Qi Yi'an registered: "The temperature of the corpse drops relatively quickly."

"Because I was in seawater before, the body surface temperature was already low, plus a lot of blood loss." Shen Junci explained. After observing the eyes and nasal cavity of the deceased, he checked the face of the deceased, especially the lips.

Afterwards, Shen Junci let out a little surprise, and pointed to the inner wall of the corpse's mouth, "There are abrasions on the lips, and there are some small wounds on the side of the tongue and inside the mouth."

These wounds are very small and covered by blood stains, if you don't look carefully, you may be overlooked.

The diving respirator is bitten in the mouth. Normally, these scars will not be formed unless it is pulled vigorously.

Qi Yi'an hastily took the light and leaned over to look at the wounds on the inner wall of the mouth: "That means that her diving respirator may not have fallen naturally?!"

Shen Junci checked it carefully again: "Strictly speaking, this scar can only mean that the mouth was scratched when the respirator was dropped. The underwater situation is complicated, so it's hard to say whether it was pulled out by someone."

After checking the body surface, they took blood for testing.

Qi Yi'an finished filling out the corpse form and changed another form.

The work of a forensic doctor is not as simple as dissection. Every time a corpse is found, a site investigation is required, followed by an autopsy examination and autopsy records. A thick stack of information is left behind for each corpse.

Without Qi Yi'an, Shen Junci would be too busy to be alone.

All equipment is ready.

Shen Jun resigned: "Get ready to start the autopsy, this time you do it."

To get a better view, they hosed down the blood on the surface of the corpse.

Qi Yi'an cut open the woman's chest with a scalpel.

As soon as the skin was cut, blood overflowed from the body, and the dissection room was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Qi Yi'an rarely saw such a bloody corpse, fearing that he might make a mistake, he subconsciously raised his head to look at Shen Junci.

Shen Junci calmly said: "It's blood accumulation, and there is bleeding from injuries after death."

Then he explained: "After decompression, the bursting of those alveoli is a process, and it will even last for a period of time. The bleeding caused after death will not coagulate into the surrounding tissue, and there will be no blood clot formation."

After the incision was pulled away, the internal organs were exposed. Qi Yi'an stretched open the abdominal wall with his hands, and pried open the ribs with bone forceps. He probed to look at the woman's lungs.

The entire lung was filled with countless explosion points, and the tender organs were torn apart inch by inch.

Qi Yi'an, who never swears, rarely swears: "Damn, this is too miserable."

At this time, Gu Yanchen had already contacted Liao Yinghan's ex-wife. This woman was called Zhao Yushan, and she was an independent designer.

Since he was just an insider, Gu Yanchen didn't call her to the police station, but went directly to her office to inquire about the situation.The more relaxed the conversation, the easier it is for them to get more information.

Zhao Yushan has her own office on the second floor of an office building.She was wearing a white casual suit with black suspenders inside the top.The woman's hair is very long, and her lipstick is plum color, which makes her look full of aura.

Gu Yanchen looked at her and felt that she was a bit similar to Zhong Xiaoke's type, they were both financially independent and successful young women.

After Lu Ying explained the simple situation, Zhao Yushan brought them in and poured them two cups of coffee.

Then she sat across from each other and listened to Gu Yanchen and the others explain the details of the case.

Zhao Yushan raised her eyes and asked, "This happened at noon today?"

Lu Yingdao: "Yes, it was around 11:30 noon. We asked Liao Yinghan at the first time and came to you."

Zhao Yushan put down the coffee and snorted: "What accident? This is a murder!"

Gu Yanchen asked, "How did you confirm it?"

Zhao Yushan said: "Because almost the same thing happened to me three years ago, if I hadn't been vigilant, I might have died."

Hearing that there seemed to be a lot of articles in it, Lu Ying adjusted the recording pen, and Gu Yanchen also said: "Can you tell me the whole process in detail, including the process of your acquaintance and love with Liao Yinghan."

Zhao Yushan brushed her hair with her hands: "I met this man in a high-end gym. Although I chose a female personal trainer, I became familiar with him. Then he took the initiative to pursue me and praised me." Good-looking, I like to travel, he also plays everywhere, we have a lot in common."

"Later, I went out by chance and saw him volunteering in my community. He greeted me, and I suddenly had a crush on him. Seeing that he has a good figure and appearance, we have been dating for a while. friend."

"When we were dating, he looked like a very obedient wolf dog. He cooked a rich breakfast every morning, drove me to work, and picked me up after work. He has all the gentleness and consideration of a man, and he is very romantic. He is very kneeling He licked me, and he was almost obedient to my request. I lost my temper at him, but he still treated me unchanged."

"I went to get drunk with a client, and he took care of me all night, and there was no offense at all. I thought I had met the right one."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yushan smiled bitterly: "In retrospect, he doesn't love me at all, he just tried his best to please me, and made his own personality according to the man I like."

Gu Yanchen asked, "Including being a volunteer?"

Zhao Yushan nodded: "I probably mentioned inadvertently that he would do that only if he likes a man with a heart for public welfare. After we got together, he never went there at all."

"Later, he suddenly proposed to me and gave me a grand proposal ceremony. Although I was not ready at the time, I still agreed after facing many mutual friends and family members. After we got married, he began to lobby continuously Me, let me hang out with him, including diving. He said that diving was his childhood dream, he showed me a lot of videos, and kept describing to me the beauty of the underwater world.”

Gu Yanchen listened quietly. Although Zhong Xiaoke was dead now, she had a hunch that what happened to Zhao Yushan must have happened to Zhong Xiaoke as well.

"I'm an independent woman who loves travel and sports. I'm also a good swimmer and have always been interested in diving, so it didn't take long for him to talk me into it. We agreed to go on our honeymoon and dive together After looking at the underwater scenery, I signed up for a diving class, learned various diving knowledge, and got a diving certificate."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yushan sneered: "The next step, you can probably guess what he did."

Gu Yanchen expected it: "Buy insurance."

Zhao Yushan nodded and said, "Buy the highest accident insurance."

Then she continued: "I was still in the honeymoon period at that time, and I didn't have that much defense against the men around me. He led me to a sea area where there were not many people. We went into the water together. The underwater scenery was really beautiful. I took a picture with the camera and followed him to dive into the deep water without knowing it. When I realized it, we were already about 20 meters underwater. I looked up to find Liao Yinghan, but I couldn’t find him. People. Then I turned around suddenly and found him quietly behind me, with his hand close to my oxygen tank."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yushan seemed to be lost in memory, and her speech slowed down.

"At that time, I suddenly realized a problem. We were underwater. Except for the two of us, there was no one around. The sea was basically silent, the sun was not so bright, and there was water all around. My feet were suspended, and I The air we live on comes from a small oxygen cylinder, can you feel that feeling? It’s not the sky, it’s the earth.”

"A thought flashed in my mind that I might be killed here by this man."

"At that time, I panicked. Scenes of the past, experiences from childhood to adulthood, flashed in my mind like a revolving lantern, and I swam to the beach desperately. Fortunately, I remembered what the coach said before, although Flustered but no mistakes in various links. After I left him, I swam ashore and reached someone. I quarreled loudly with him and asked him to stay away from me. He said a little aggrieved, just checking my oxygen cylinder The oxygen content, but I don't believe a word."

"From that day on, I was afraid of him and didn't stay alone with him. I proposed to sleep in a separate room, but he didn't say anything. One month later, he filed for divorce. I signed and ended this marriage."

"That experience gave me deep-sea phobia, and I never want to go diving again." Speaking of this, Zhao Yushan sighed, "I am almost sure that the poor woman you mentioned may have met Same thing, but she doesn't have my vigilance, nor my luck."

Speaking of this, she lowered her eyes: "Those men will not only find women to climb mountains, but also trick you into diving."

Lu Ying followed the procedure and asked her to sign to ensure that what she said was true.

Gu Yanchen asked: "If needed in the future, are you willing to testify in court?"

Zhao Yushan said: "Yes, yes, but I don't think my words can prove anything. After that incident, I also searched for a case that happened in 2003 in country O. A 26-year-old woman died while diving with her husband. , the family all suspected that the woman was murdered by her husband, but the final verdict was that her husband failed to fulfill his duty of rescue and was sentenced to five years in prison. Not to mention that this is in China, it sounds like Liao Yinghan is still trying his best to help."

Gu Yanchen nodded: "I understand."

This is the simplest case, but it is also the most complicated case.

It's simple, they can almost confirm through various signs that Liao Yinghan may have something to do with the case.

Complicated means that it is difficult for them to find direct physical witnesses and a complete chain of evidence to allow Liao Yinghan to prove it.

After bidding farewell to Zhao Yushan, Gu Yanchen returned to the Municipal Bureau. He asked Bai Meng, "Is there any progress on your side?"

Bai Meng said: "We have met the parents of the deceased."

Gu Yanchen asked, "Do they have any clues?"

Bai Meng said: "Zhong Xiaoke's parents are both teachers, they are very well-mannered, and they didn't say anything excessive, but I can see that they are also suspecting that the husband killed his wife."

"Is there a specific reason?"

"It's nothing substantial. Zhong Xiaoke's parents said that this marriage was a flash marriage, and they strongly opposed it at the beginning. Liao Yinghan was younger than Zhong Xiaoke, had married once, and his family was not in a good situation. During the wedding, Liao Yinghan's family Only one of his uncles was present at the wedding, and almost no other relatives were present."

Gu Yanchen asked: "What about the others, did you ask any other relevant people?"

Bai Meng said: "There are some fragmentary clues. Zhong Xiaoke's diving instructor said that he couldn't understand why such a tragedy happened. According to his description, he said that Zhong Xiaoke was very spiritual in diving and was extremely careful every time."

She thought for a while and added: "There is another piece of information that was provided to us by the lifeguard who rescued Zhong Xiaoke at the scene. He said that when Zhong Xiaoke was rescued, he seemed to see a piece of plastic floating on the sea surface, about the size of a palm. It was so big. At that time, he was in a hurry to save people, so he didn't have time to pick it up to see what it was. But the lifeguard said that he didn't look carefully, maybe it was rubbish."

After talking about this, Gu Yanchen asked again: "What about the mobile phone and various accounts? Is there anything unusual?"

Bai Meng shook his head: "I've checked the recent ones and found nothing, but some problems can be seen in their pre-marriage records. After this Liao Yinghan divorced his ex-wife, he was like stepping on eight boats. Octopuses are not as good as him. Lively. He finally fished Zhong Xiaoke out of the pond, and gradually alienated the other women."

Bai Meng thought about it and added: "Zhong Xiaoke really likes to record VLOGs. A few days ago, their travels were recorded as VLOGs, and some of them were posted on the Internet. I downloaded them and sent them to you for viewing."
