Chapter 2232: The Case of the Remnant Arm of the Safe
Modu police station, autopsy room.
Here, Zhao Yu finally saw the half arm that had been locked in the safe for decades.
The arm has turned into a black skeleton, and it looks a little uncomfortable.
"Team leader, a little clothing fiber was found on the arm," forensic doctor Zhang Peipei said, "but the amount of those fibers is very small, which means that when the arm was put in, someone took off the sleeve on the arm!"
"However," Zhao Yu thought clearly, "When the arm was cut off, it was wearing clothes, right?"
"Yes!" Zhang Peipei nodded.
"It seems," Zhao Yu said, "when the arm is cut off, the owner of the arm must have been unprepared! Then... Can you tell whether the arm was cut off from a dead person or a living person? ?”
"This is very difficult," Zhang Peipei said, "One is that it took too long, and the other is that the safe was not the first scene where the arm was chopped off. We checked the blood residue and found that there was very little blood residue.
"It is possible that someone treated the arm before putting it in the safe, such as controlling the residual blood in the arm, or wiping it..."
"Oh..." Zhao Yu pondered for a while, then asked again, "Didn't you say... there is a watch on your arm?"
"Yes," Zhang Peipei immediately opened an evidence box, handed the watch inside to Zhao Yu, and explained at the same time, "When the arm was found, the watch was still on the arm!"
Zhao Yu looked down, but saw that it was a rather old-fashioned mechanical watch. Although the watch was already in a state of rust, judging from the style and shape of the watch, it should not be an ordinary watch.
"It's diamond-encrusted!" Sure enough, Zhang Peipei said, "We checked, and this model is no longer available. Its name is Santa Norway, and it is produced in Switzerland. The sales volume is very small. It has been discontinued in the 1990s." , the factory was also acquired by Richard Miller!"
"Diamond-encrusted?" Zhao Yu clicked his tongue secretly, "This watch... should be very valuable, right?"
While speaking, Zhao Yu took a closer look, and found that the hands of the clock had stopped beating, and the time seemed to be a little over three.
"We haven't checked the specific value, because this kind of watch is relatively rare, and we haven't found a market price yet!" Zhang Peipei said, "However, since it is inlaid with diamonds, it must be worth a lot!"
"Interesting..." Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes, "With such a valuable watch, the person who put his arm in the safe never thought of selling it?
"It seems that this must be a master who is not short of money!"
"At present," Zhang Peipei said, "we have only detected the DNA of the arm from the safe, and nothing else has been found."
"Then..." Zhao Yu asked again, "Is there any news from the data comparison?"
"No," Zhang Peipei shook his head. "It's not in the missing persons list, nor in the database. I'm afraid, if we want to find the owner of the arm, we have to ask geneticists to go out and see if we can lock the target in the genetic map!"
"What about similar DNA?" Zhao Yu asked, "Didn't we do it during the Ghost King case? If we can find a close relative with the owner of the arm, wouldn't we be able to find out the identity?"
"I've checked," Zhang Peipei said helplessly, "I didn't find any close relatives of the owner of the arm, and the ones I could find were all from the fifth server. Since the number of people is too large, I'm afraid it will be difficult to start!"
"Hey,
This is interesting..." Zhao Yu touched his forehead, "It seems that this case is really a bit difficult! "
"Team leader," Zhang Peipei said, "when we tested the arm bone, it was put in the safe about 30 years ago. It must not be easy to investigate this case. Tell me...will we accept this case?"
Zhao Yu understood Zhang Peipei's meaning. The special investigation team was usually assigned by the Criminal Department to deal with serious and important cases. Personal matters such as the arm of the safe were not in the scope of their work.
If Zeng Ke hadn't sent someone to investigate the Tianqin Group this time, they wouldn't have found the safe and the arm.
"Didn't Modu discuss it with you?" Zhang Peipei said, "Although this case is old, I'm afraid even the murder case can't be determined now!"
"At present, no one has talked to me," Zhao Yu said, "However, regarding Zhu Yundi's case, we have to stay in Shanghai for ten and a half months anyway, so this case should be adjusted!
"What if it's a murder?"
"Okay, you are the team leader, listen to you!" Zhang Peipei said, "In this case, I will contact my teacher, and then give him the DNA, let them analyze the map!"
"Okay, but," Zhao Yu said, "although this case is old, but now we have three directions to explore besides the DNA and gene map!
"First," Zhao Yu turned to Zeng Ke and said, "Investigate the origin of the safe, the safe will not be created out of nothing, and it is unique, as long as you find out who owns the safe, you will be able to find important clues!
"Second," Zhao Yu stretched out two fingers, "A 30-year-old diamond-encrusted watch is not affordable for ordinary people! Besides, the watch has been discontinued. Perhaps, we can check the origin of the watch!"
After speaking, Zhao Yu began to pack his things and prepared to leave.
"Hmm..." Zhang Peipei was curious, "Didn't you say there are three directions?"
"Ahem...ahem..." Zhao Yu coughed dryly, "When I think of a third direction, I will tell you first!"
"..." Zhang Peipei and Zeng Ke were speechless.
...
Ten minutes later, the Metropolitan Police Department vacated an office with advanced equipment for Zhao Yu.
This was Zhao Yu's first visit to Shanghai, and it felt quite fresh.
Due to the follow-up matters of the last black pupil case, Wu Xiumin stayed in Jinghai, and it would take a few days later to come over.
And Miao Ying returned to the headquarters of the Secret Service to participate in the follow-up processing of Xi Wei's treasure.
Through the continuous operations of the agents, they finally took out the waterproof cabin hanging under the cruise ship. After opening it, they saw a lot of rare treasures, gold and silver, and currency cash of various countries.
Of course, they also discovered a large amount of top-secret information stored in the hard disk of the computer, but all the information used advanced encryption methods, and it would take a certain amount of time to decipher the information.
In addition, Zhu Yundi and Xi Mengna were also brought back to the headquarters for a secret interrogation because of the wide range of involvement. These two people are aware of the illegal activities of the Xiwei Group and must be handled with caution.
Also, regarding the murder of Zhu Xicheng by Sun Jinjian and his wife, it was also handed over to the local police, and there was basically no special investigation team involved.
From this point of view, Zhao Yu's work in Shanghai was just a formality, so he took the case of the safe after he had nothing to do.
At this moment, sitting in the office, Zhao Yu was sipping coffee while crossing his legs.
Opposite him, there is a whiteboard, on which there are only a few words written: "The case of the broken arm of the safe".
This feeling is what Zhao Yu is most comfortable with.
Before, everything that happened on the cruise ship was out of his old habit of handling cases, which made him a little uncomfortable. And because of the illness, I feel particularly strenuous.
It's all right now, finally returning to the rhythm I'm familiar with.
Um……
Looking at the empty whiteboard, Zhao Yu wondered to himself, what is the story behind this half arm?
