Forensics

Early in the morning, Shen Junci and Qi Yi'an transported the man's body to the forensic office of the Penang City Bureau before ordinary colleagues went to work.

The man's clothes were taken off and he lay on his back on the smooth stainless steel dissecting table.

The skin of the corpse looked very pale from the loss of blood.

Shen Junci first asked Qi Yi'an to get the ink slate and fingerprints on the corpse.

Qi Yi'an quickly printed the fingerprints, scanned them and recorded them in the computer of the forensic laboratory.The fingerprints began to be quickly compared with Curry's known information, and they began to observe the corpse in front of them.

The forensic medical examination pays attention to the whole body from head to toe, from front to back. The corpse in front of you can be described as bruised and bruised, with few inches of good flesh left.

Shen Junci first observed the face of the corpse, he looked at it for a while and said: "The corpse should have been wearing a blindfold before, but the murderer took the blindfold away in the end."

The stick hit the face, leaving a trace on the edge of the blindfold, and the remaining blood was also blocked by the blindfold. Now that the blindfold is removed, the blood flow becomes less coherent.

Qi Yi'an hurried over and took pictures of these details.

Then Shen Junci opened the eyelids of the deceased with his fingers to observe the size and transparency of the pupils.

After measuring, he supported the dissecting table with both hands, looked down at the corpse and said, "The pupils are not equal in size. Considering the head injury, the victim may have died of left meningeal artery injury."

There were many wounds on the deceased's body, but most of them were superficial skin traumas that could cause pain and blood, but they were not fatal. Although the corpse bled profusely, it was not life-threatening.

The most serious injury was on the head of the deceased. His hair has not been shaved yet, but Shen Junci can judge from experience that the left temporal bone has a linear fracture, and there are two wounds. Such wounds will endanger the brain.Cause brain contusion, acute brain swelling, and even cerebral artery damage.

This basically determined the cause of death.

Afterwards, Shen Junci was not in a hurry to start the autopsy, but asked Qi Yi'an to take pictures of each wound first, and asked him to push a whiteboard from the office beside him.

He asked Qi Yi'an to write various wounds and injuries on the left side of the whiteboard, and paste the corresponding printed photos on the right side.

There are many and complicated injuries on a man's body.

It took nearly an hour just to record, and the whiteboard was densely written.

A total of seven kinds of murder weapons were found.

Qi Yi'an asked: "Master, what to do next, do you want to start the autopsy?"

Shen Junci shook his head: "The next step is to sort these injuries first, and find out the hit points according to the passage of time." Seeing Qi Yi'an's doubts, he explained again, "The autopsy may cause damage to these traumatic wounds. It will not be so easy to study it clearly.”

Hearing this, Qi Yi'an felt his brain explode: "There are so many injuries, how can we deal with them?"

In the past, Qi Yi'an's autopsy required a maximum of five or six injuries, and there are dozens of injuries in such a dense array, it's a headache to think about.

Shen Junci said calmly: "Pay slowly."

After the on-site investigation was completed in the morning, the criminal police team returned to the city bureau. The female driver was called Zhao Xiaohan, and she also arrived at the city bureau not long after.

Bai Meng directly brought him to the interrogation room and was in charge of the interrogation.

After asking a few questions, Bai Meng returned to the office and said to Gu Yanchen, "Captain Gu, this female driver also has problems."

Gu Yanchen asked, "What's the problem?"

Bai Meng opened the software on his laptop, called him to the computer, and pointed to the screen to show him: "GPS is installed in all taxis now, so I asked the taxi company to export the GPS on Zhao Xiaohan's car." , and the driving routes of the last three months are superimposed, and such a map is obtained."

Gu Yanchen saw that there were various intricate lines on it, and there was only one solitary line, which was the line from last night.

Each driver has his own fixed route and range, and this delivery location happens to be out of Zhao Xiaohan's comfort zone.

Gu Yanchen frowned.

Bai Meng analyzed carefully: "She said that she was driving on the road and stopped only when someone called her. But she usually receives orders through the taxi-hailing software. Yesterday's electronic records show that at ten o'clock, she stopped all the software and the car stopped. In a parking lot on the side of the road, at 10:30, she answered a call from a strange mobile phone. After that, she never took an order again, and passed by a few parking spots on the way, without stopping, and drove past with an empty car. .In the end she arrived at the place she mentioned, made an order, delivered the person, and then went home. The next morning, she came out to drive again after six o'clock."

After listening to her analyze the whole process, Gu Yanchen said: "It's as if she waited for a long time just for this one business, and after finishing it, she went home."

Bai Mengdao: "Also, according to the previous surveillance, she stayed at the entrance of the alley for about ten minutes, but she drove in normally and got out of the car. Even if she helped a customer, five minutes was enough."

Gu Yanchen said: "She may have helped the murderer and dragged that man all the way to the basement."

"In addition, I found some information." Bai Meng said and opened a file, "I compared the address books of the landlady and the driver, and found a common WeChat number."

She found an account named Xiaobei, but there was no information in it.

However, two people who seem to have no intersection suddenly connect at a certain point, which in itself is a clue worthy of attention.

Gu Yanchen patted her on the shoulder: "Good job, you continue to interrogate and see what she has to say."

In the forensic room at this time, Shen Junci and Qi Yi'an began to analyze the wounds one by one according to the injury, bleeding, and intersection of the wounds.

Shen Junci was still a little bit affected by the hangover yesterday.

He seemed a little tired, leaning on a table in the dissecting room, his voice hoarse: "Generally speaking, wounds in the early stage bleed more, and wounds in the later stage bleed less. There will be changes, such as bleeding, infection, blood clotting, and scabs will form within a minimum of three hours. The phenomenon that the extension line of the wound and fracture is truncated also helps to judge the sequence of injury. These situations are our judgment basis .”

"The first murder weapon used by the murderer was a stick. The victim had a total of eight stick wounds on his body, that is, he was beaten eight times. The first stick wound hit the face of the deceased, causing nasal bleeding."

"The second murder weapon used was a screwdriver. Three cone-shaped wounds were stabbed on the chest and abdomen of the deceased..."

"..."

"The fourth murder weapon used was a wine bottle, which hit the head and shattered, causing a head injury. This wine bottle was also the only murder weapon that the murderer could not take away from the scene."

"..."

"The seventh and last hammer was used. There were six times in total. The first time was on the hand, the second time was on the leg, the third time was on the ankle... the fifth time was on the head, and this time it caused The victim died."

Shen Junci's speech was not fast, but it was clear.

Qi Yi'an was in charge of recording. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would almost doubt that Shen Junci had seen the video of the crime.Otherwise, how could the analysis be so meticulous and detailed.

The more he listened, the more he frowned: "These weapons are common in life. It's like picking something from a table or a cabinet to hit someone. But it's not common to put them together."

If he used a knife to kill, he would feel more normal and more reasonable.

Qi Yi'an remembered what Shen Junci said before: "If it's not torture, then what is it...revenge?"

Shen Junci looked at it for a while and said, "Let's dissect it first."

After analyzing the murderer's crime process clearly, Qi Yi'an's thinking became clearer when he performed the autopsy.

The corpse was quickly dissected, and the heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney were examined one by one.

When the stomach was dissected, a strong smell of alcohol could be smelled as soon as it was cut open.

As Shen Junci expected, although the trauma was serious and the ribs were broken, the internal organs were not seriously damaged.

Finally, the head was dealt with. As soon as the hair of the male corpse was shaved, the wound on the top of the skull was exposed, and the subcutaneous bleeding was serious.When the skin and flesh were lifted, it could be seen that the top part of the skull was comminuted and bone fragments entered the cranial cavity.

Shen Junci pointed to the cracks on those bones and said: "The extension line of the first fracture was not cut off, but the second fracture was cut off, so there are two fractures on the head."

One of these two fractures was caused by a broken wine bottle, and the other was caused by a hammer blow. The difference can also be seen in the wound surface.

The skull was sawn open, and a human brain emerged within the skull.In the pink and tender brain tissue, obvious deformation points and bleeding points can be seen.

Qi Yi'an carefully identified: "It really is the left meningeal artery injury."

As soon as the two of them said this, they heard a beep from the computer beside them.

Qi Yi'an hurried to look. He pressed the mouse button and said happily: "The identity of the deceased has been found! This man's name is Zuo Junming."

Shen Jun resigned: "You send a message to Captain Gu."

Qi Yi'an hurriedly took off his gloves, picked up his mobile phone, and sent the corresponding information to Gu Yanchen.

The case took place in a residential area, and people nearby were questioned by the police.

The news of the murder spread quickly, and some netizens began to urge the police to make an announcement.

After confirming the identity of the deceased, the Penang Public Security Police Notice was finally issued, in which it stated that a male body was found, which was "the deceased surnamed Zuo".

This surname is really rare. Someone replied under this message: "The deceased with the surname Zuo? Could it be that Zuo Junming?"

"How did he die?"

"Isn't it the wife's revenge?"

"Wow, if it's Zhang Kebei who killed him, then I'd agree with both hands and feet, this tyrannical man should be damned!"

Soon there were some popular science posts on the Internet, telling the before and after consequences.

Gu Yanchen was also inquiring, and as soon as he entered his name, Zuo Junming's information appeared on the computer screen.

Gu Yanchen saw that his name was familiar, and then scrolled down to see a case and the court's verdict.

He opened the file, checked it carefully, then printed it out, and walked to the Forensic Medicine Center.

When Gu Yanchen arrived at the door of the dissection room, Shen Junci had just finished disposing of the corpse, took off his gloves and mask and came out.

Gu Yanchen looked at the corpse lying on the dissection table: "Do you know about Zhang Kebei's case last year? He is Zhang Kebei's husband."

As soon as this sentence was said, not only Shen Junci was stunned, but even Qi Yi'an was dumbfounded on the spot: "Is that... the controversial domestic violence case?"

Gu Yanchen nodded, and handed them a stack of case files.

This was a case a year ago that shocked Penang.

The first thing that attracted public attention was a video. In the video, a woman was beaten and screamed, blood flowed all over the floor, her body could not move, and she curled up in the corner of the wall like a frightened animal.

But a man beat her with a belt and shouted loudly: "If you dare to call the police and run away, I will kill you and your whole family!"

Watching such a video makes people shudder, and many people began to pay attention to this case.

It was later known that the woman in the video was Zhang Kebei, a 33-year-old housewife.In August of that year, she was hospitalized with a skull injury.

Zhang Kebei took her husband Zuo Junming to court for intentional injury.

When the court was held, Zhang Kebei appeared on the scene, and everyone could see that she was a tortured woman.

In the court, Zhang Kebei presented a lot of evidence. She had been subjected to domestic violence many times, but she was not held accountable because Zuo Junming wanted to repent.

But a few months later, everything got worse.

Every time Zhang Kebei was subjected to domestic violence, he was beaten to the point of bleeding, and was threatened with death by her husband.Based on the chat records between herself and her relatives and friends, as well as the medical records, the woman summarized the specific time, implementation method, picture records and medical treatment information of several severe domestic violence.

Even so, the lawsuit was lost in the end.

The previous injuries have all healed. She was not examined by the forensic doctor at that time. Some records in the hospital are unknown and cannot be used as legal evidence.

In addition, the forensic doctor proved that Zhang Kebei's skull injury was caused by falling from stairs.Not a direct hit.

The traces of the scene were removed, and Zhang Kebei had no direct evidence to prove that Zuo Junming pushed her downstairs.

Zuo Junming hired a well-known lawyer, and the lawyer defended based on these points, saying that Zhang Kebei's previous injuries were just some friction between husband and wife, not that serious, and some medical records were false. Doubt is forgery.The video posted on the Internet has been edited, and the subsequent skull injury was caused by Zhang Kebei's natural fall.

In the end, due to insufficient evidence, Zuo Junming was acquitted.

Even Zhang Kebei's divorce request was rejected.

For a while, Zhang Kebei was even said to have deliberately set a trap for Zuo Junming, falsifying evidence, just to get Zuo Junming's property for divorce, and some people called her a viper.

Some people even found out that Zhang Kebei has been transferring property in private and having promiscuous sex with other men, and he is not a delicate appearance at all.

Many people exclaimed that the case was reversed, saying that they should not stand in line early.

Zhang Kebei refused to accept the judgment and chose to appeal.

She wrote an article, the name of the article is: "Seven Weapons of Murder".

The article talked about her seven experiences of domestic violence when she narrowly escaped death, and finally asked, if these evidences cannot prove that he hurt me, does it have to be my death to end the matter?

The bloody and tearful article immediately resonated with many people, and even became popular.

Later, someone came out, and the reason why Zhang Kebei lost the lawsuit was because Zuo Junming spent money on bribery.

Even those who exclaimed the reversal on the Internet were mixed with a large number of bought trolls.

The forensic doctor conducted a systematic injury test on Zhang Kebei and determined that she had suffered domestic violence for a long time.

When the trial was held again, Zhang Kebei finally won the case. She received compensation and finally got a divorce, escaping from the clutches of that terrifying man.

All this happened a year ago, and the whole process lasted for several months, like a series. Now the turmoil has subsided, and Zhang Kebei has also started a new life.

But at this moment, Zuo Junming died.

Qi Yi'an looked at the detailed records: "These tools of domestic violence can correspond to the murder weapon one by one."

He finally understood now why the murderer had to change the murder weapon frequently.The stick corresponds to the broom at home, and other tools are within reach at home.

Injuries accumulated one after another, and Zuo Junming finally died of a severe blow to the head, corresponding to Zhang Kebei's injury when he fell down the stairs.

"This man is simply a beast. It looks like revenge..." Qi Yi'an's voice was trembling.

Gu Yanchen crossed his arms: "Those netizens think the same way."

Qi Yian's statement is exactly the same as the mainstream statement on the Internet.

And now there are various analyzes on the Internet, some directly assign the murderer to Zhang Kebei, and some argue for Zhang Kebei, one by one as if they were at the scene.

After Shen Junci browsed the information, he looked back at the man's body lying on the dissection table: "Then the murderer may be Zhang Kebei?"

Gu Yanchen said: "At present, it seems that the suspicion is very serious." All the clues point to that woman, and in connection with Bai Meng's discovery before, the "Xiaobei" that the landlady and the female driver added on WeChat is very likely to be Zhang. Can be north.

He said in a deep voice: "We have to find this Ms. Zhang and investigate."
