Chapter 1038 Five Fingers

Jiang Yuan took the fingerprints and began to mark them for comparison.

At the same time, Miao Ruixiang, who served as an assistant, looked at a pot of used oil and half a bucket of golden arowana left, and fell into deep thought.

The oil used to fry only one finger looked quite clean, with only a little white foam left on the edge of the pot. If it is washed off... it will be no problem to fry a hundred more fingers.

"Brother, have you poured out the remaining oil?" Miao Ruixiang asked uncertainly.

Jiang Yuan, who was comparing fingerprints, was stunned by the question: "What else? Do you want to take it back?"

"No, no, this is not a rabbit." Miao Ruixiang shook his head quickly: "I was thinking, in case you want to fry other fingers or toes later..."

"Pour it out, there are not so many fingers to fry. Toes are not needed." Jiang Yuan waved his hand.

Frying fingers is not a very unpopular fingerprint technique. If you count it, you can operate it as usual with a strong LV2 technique. If there are any restrictions, it is that there are requirements for the conditions of the fingers. Only fingers with intact dermis need to be fried, and only fingers with severe damage to the epidermis need to be fried.

Among the ten fingers of the corpse on the dissection table, only one finger just meets this condition. However, forensic doctors have invented different ways to deal with fingers in different time periods. For example, fingerprints with a lower degree of decay can be taken from the epidermis gloves, and those with a lower degree of decay can be injected, etc.

In short, facing the human corpse project, forensic doctors have spent a lot of effort for hundreds of years.

Miao Ruixiang spent a lot of effort to pour out the remaining oil in the pot, and then took a rag and detergent, and scrubbed the pot like resigned to his fate.

In theory, the oil pan that fried a finger does not need to be cleaned at all, but if it is not washed, Miao Ruixiang really can't stand the suspicious smell of this thing.

Jiang Yuan sat in front of the computer for a long time.

The fingerprint comparison never produced any results.

With Jiang Yuan's current level of fingerprint identification, this can be assumed that there is no fingerprint in the fingerprint database.

"Put this finger away and keep it intact." Jiang Yuan specifically told Miao Ruixiang, and then began further autopsy.

The body was severely decomposed and the head was gone. It was basically meaningless to examine the body surface. The key was to obtain some physical evidence or biological samples. For example, things like water plants, fishing lines, fish hooks, fish floats and hemp ropes wrapped around the body. In addition, the remaining parasites or metabolites should also be removed one by one.

These were all very detailed tasks. Not only did Jiang Yuan, Miao Ruixiang and Wu Jun, the three forensic doctors, work on their backs, but the criminal police who came to check the situation were also pulled over to help speed up the progress.

After being busy for almost an hour, Jiang Yuan said again: "Ruixiang, boil water in a pot."

"Ah? Oh, yes!" Miao Ruixiang didn't react for a moment, and only then did he realize that it was time to remove the bones.

The best way to remove bones from a corpse is to boil them in water. The bones removed in this way are white and clean, much better than those picked with a knife.

Ningtai County Criminal Police Detachment bought professional pressure cookers, water baths and other appliances a long time ago. The pressure cooker is to be disassembled, which is relatively time-saving. The water bath is a stainless steel pot similar to a wooden barrel bath, with a plug-in heating function, which can handle a whole body at a time, but it is labor-saving and time-consuming to heat a whole bucket of water.

Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry, so he asked Miao Ruixiang to prepare a water bath to put the body, and then said to Wu Jun: "Master, let's take a break first? Wait for time?"

It takes a long time to boil water and then remove bones. Take Haidilao's hot pot as an example. A normal pot is about 10 liters. If you want to cook one person, you need at least a dozen pots. The electric heating capacity of the water bath is not much stronger than that of the hot pot.

Wu Jun said "yes", and before leaving, he looked at the remaining golden dragon fish in front and said to Miao Ruixiang: "You can add some oil to the pot when you cook it, so that the pot will not overflow."

"Oh." Miao Ruixiang felt that he had learned something, but it felt that it was useless knowledge.

Wu Jun lit a stick of agarwood in the office.

Jiang Yuan studied fingerprints for a while, and after no results, he studied the video of the scene where the body was found.

Neither of them was too anxious. For this type of case, the core is to determine the identity of the body. If this cannot be done, it will take some luck to solve the case.

"Wang Lan is here." Wu Jun answered a call and put down the Guan Gong in his hand.

"Is it Wang the forensic doctor? Is he here to support?" Jiang Yuan was a little surprised. The forensic doctors of Ningtai County Bureau are strong, and they don't need the support of the Municipal Bureau. And Wang Lan and others are actually very busy in their daily work. With so many counties and districts in Qinghe City, they basically have to go on business trips every month.

"From her tone, it doesn't seem like it." Wu Jun said, and got up and went downstairs to greet him.

Wang Lan was wearing a uniform, and her thin body was light, like a head carrying a uniform.

Entering Building 9, Wang Lan first looked at him with envy, but there was no time to chat, so he said to Jiang Yuan and Wu Jun: "We found multiple fingers here."

"Fingerprints?" Wu Jun corrected.

Wang Lan shook his head and took out a large lunch box from his bag.

He opened the lunch box, took out the ice pack inside, and then took out a bag of fingers.

“Five fingers, no signs of life.” Wang Lan said, handing the fingers to Jiang Yuan, and said: “Found on the roadside in Qianjin District, seen by a dog walker.”

Life reaction refers to the reaction of living bodies, such as bleeding, infarction, edema, thrombosis and the like. No life reaction means that the fingers were cut off after death.

Therefore, five fingers without life reaction means that there is a body behind them, or at least a cut-off arm.

"The fingers are still fresh." Jiang Yuan quickly looked at the fingers, stood up and said, "Go to the autopsy room and take fingerprints."

The three of them returned to the autopsy room together.

Ding.

When the elevator door opened, a strong smell of cooking meat came out.

The three of them had cold faces and said nothing. In the territory of the forensic doctor, it is best not to be greedy.

When the door of the autopsy room was opened, Miao Ruixiang was seen wearing a white mask and a white hat, standing on a stool, holding a large iron spoon, stirring vigorously in the water bath.

The hot steam rushed directly to Miao Ruixiang's face, steaming his face red.

"Is it cooked?" Wu Jun asked when he entered the room.

"It's almost done. Almost done." Miao Ruixiang said hurriedly, "Do you want to take one first and have a look?"

"Don't bother. It's uncomfortable to rub the meat off the bones. Let's cook it until the bones fall off." Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry. He found another table and spread out the table, and began to study the five fingers that Wang Lan brought in the lunch box.
