Chapter 438 Panic (Asking for Monthly Votes)
"Captain Jiang, let me help you get the evidence bag."
Mu Zhiyang was originally a follower at the scene. When he saw Jiang Yuan had collected the key evidence, he immediately stepped forward and helped him collect it.
He had been a policeman in the police station. Looking at the appearance of Captain Hou Lejia, he always felt that he was the protagonist of some urban disputes, with the characteristics of snatching evidence and running away.
What Mu Zhiyang didn't know was that Director Huang charged Hou Lejia first. In terms of familiarity, life and work experience, Huang Qiangmin had also suffered losses and thickened his cerebral cortex.
Jiang Yuan handed the evidence bag to Mu Zhiyang, and then picked up hair around the drawer.
It is not certain that these hairs are from the criminal, but if the murderer is not wearing a hood like himself, and is not as clean as Wu Junhao's bald strike team, the probability of leaving hair is still very high.
Just like the adulterer, he can find other people's hair in his partner's car. A murderer, is he worthy of being more careful than a cheating man or woman? People can cheat every day, clean cars and bed sheets every day, how many murderers can kill people every day?
However, judging from the appearance alone, Jiang Yuan judged that the hair around the drawer should belong to several people. If they are all family members of the deceased, forget it for now. If they are not family members of the deceased, the probability that this person is the criminal is very high.
The possibility that this case was committed by a stranger is very high. If it was committed by an acquaintance, it would be difficult to find such a calm murderer in the social circle of the deceased. If there is one, he would not rummage through the boxes and cabinets for a rural family's trifles, thereby increasing the possibility of his exposure.
"These." Jiang Yuan sorted the hair and put it in different categories, and then handed it to Mu Zhiyang.
His placement method is very rigorous compared to many other trace inspections.
Mu Zhiyang put it away again, looked back and saw that Hou Le's family was no longer there, so he whispered: "Captain Jiang, has this case been solved?"
Jiang Yuan looked back at the chaos at the scene and said: "It would be easy if the sweat stain DNA could match. If the sweat stain doesn't match..."
"If the sweat stain doesn't match, there are still hairs." Mu Zhiyang was very optimistic.
Jiang Yuan shook his head: "The hairs could also be left by the master who installed the drawers, or by the cheating couple."
Some evidence has existed for too long, which has also become a problem. Especially the location of the horn, such as the hair evidence in the wardrobe, it is more difficult to prove its validity.
European and American forensic evidence has encountered great difficulties in this regard. In the past, criminal science and technology personnel often selectively tested when encountering similar situations. This is also because the cost of DNA testing in the initial stage is expensive.
However, with the broadcast of various legal dramas, the criminal science and technology concepts of countries that adopt the jury system, mainly Americans, suddenly surpassed the system. The requirements for completeness and integrity of evidence even exceeded the capabilities of normal American laboratories, so that technicians in many cases were even unwilling to collect evidence comprehensively.
In terms of the collection of evidence in homicide cases in China, especially the collection of evidence during the investigation, it is still as comprehensive as possible.
The investigation of the crime scene lasted for almost a day.
When Jiang Yuan and others left Changxin Village, the results of the first batch of evidence were almost all out.
Jiang Yuan didn't have to worry about these. He handed over the evidence, packed up, and went to sleep for two hours. When he woke up, the forensic doctor from Qinghe City had arrived.
Jiang Yuan then took forensic doctor Zhai and others to the autopsy room of the funeral home and met with forensic doctors Wang Lan and Ye from the Qinghe Municipal Bureau.
Although forensic doctor Zhai brought 8 new forensic doctors with him, in theory, the 8 new forensic doctors can work independently, but they are led by forensic doctors from the provincial department, and have their own plans and work content. It is impossible for them to work for nothing just to save money for Hou Le's family. If it weren't for Jiang Yuan, it wouldn't work even if he was invited.
Wang Lan had to come. According to the policy of the Qinghe Municipal Bureau, for more serious murders, such as tragic homicides, dismemberment cases, corpse burning cases, etc., or such double corpse cases, you can ask for support from the municipal bureau forensic doctors, and sometimes you can't refuse support.
So, today, 12 forensic doctors were stuffed into the forensic autopsy room of Longli County at once.
12 people surrounded a corpse. If the corpse could speak, they would all shout "too boring".
The forensic doctors were also a little embarrassed. Everyone was used to quietness and independent living, and there were really few opportunities for such "gatherings".
Ye, who understood the ways of the world, had never had such an experience. Seeing that everyone was a little nervous, he thought for a moment and said, "It's rare that we meet, let's have a midnight snack together tonight."
"Two corpses, if we want to have a midnight snack, we have to do it now."
"It's OK." Ye looked up at Jiang Yuan and Zhai and asked, "Can you two give guidance?"
It's much easier to give guidance than to do it directly. High-end forensic doctors are all in charge of guidance. For example, Zhai rarely does a complete autopsy on a daily basis. It is likely that his subordinates do it.
Zhai nodded, but Jiang Yuan said directly, "I'll do this male corpse."
He didn't have much actual experience in autopsy. Since he started working, he has only dissected dozens of corpses, which is equivalent to the number of dissections performed by a mature forensic doctor who has been working for about three years. Therefore, even with the skills given by the system, Jiang Yuan still consciously accumulated some autopsy experience.
Moreover, it is also very good to encounter skills from time to time when dissecting corpses.
The reason for choosing the male corpse is that it is the first victim. In theory, more information can be seen. With the bloodstain analysis, it is easier to understand what happened on the first floor.
Forensic Doctor Ye did not expect Jiang Yuan to do this. He tutted twice and turned around and said, "Forensic Doctor Wang, how about we do this female corpse?"
He and Wang Lan often cooperate with each other, so there is no need to be polite.
Wang Lan responded and smiled, "Two more gentlemen, it's rare that there are so many people today, I won't move the body."
She is very thin, probably less than 100 pounds. When she first started working, she had to move the body even if it was difficult. Now that she has become a senior forensic doctor, she still has to grit her teeth and do it herself. This is also the reason why she likes to travel to various places. Each county has its own forensic doctor. She went to help, which increased the forensic strength. The local forensic doctor was embarrassed to let her move the body alone.
The two bodies were arranged on two parallel dissection tables. Everyone chose the body according to their preferences and started working.
Hiccup...
As soon as Jiang Yuan turned the male corpse over, it let out a long hiccup.
The hiccup lasted for three or four seconds, with great force and a bit of smell.
The forensic doctors in the autopsy room tried to be as serious as possible, but they still wanted to laugh.
There were too many people, and the horror atmosphere was not there at all.
"The waist is about to break, but the fart is quite long." Forensic Doctor Zhai curled his lips. The intestines of the dead still produce gas. It is not easy to discharge from the bottom, so it must be discharged from the top. Of course, there are many things that are not discharged from the existing openings, and it is still in time to disperse them after the forensic doctor cuts it in the middle.
"It's much better than a post-mortem birth." Wang Lan shook his head and said, "Let's talk about something happy, Old Ye, what did you say you were going to treat me to?"
"Fat intestines and pork tripe**, we have a lot of people, and it tastes good." Forensic Doctor Ye turned around and took the big casserole of fat intestines, pork tripe and chicken from the shelf, saying, "If you don't want to go, let them deliver the takeaway. Anyway, Captain Hou pays for it, and I can save a few more basins."
"Two of these basins are enough, why do you need so many." Forensic Doctor Wang said as he put the internal organs into the casserole, and said, "Has your Captain Hou suddenly become generous?"
"It's because of Forensic Doctor Jiang's face." Of course, Forensic Doctor Ye couldn't say that Director Huang had requirements for the meal standard, so he changed the subject and said, "It's a rare opportunity to use some public funds. I think this basin is very useful. I'm going to prepare two for my family, for making soup or pickling vegetables."
"Yes, it's quite solid and big." Wang Lan knocked on the casserole basin, and the sound was crisp.
The forensic doctors nodded one after another.
...
Early morning.
Jiang Yuan got up after sleeping for only four or five hours. When he arrived at the criminal police team, he saw that the building was so lively that it seemed as if no one slept.
Indeed, no one slept.
When the murder case was just discovered, it was normal for the criminal police team to stay up for 72 hours. Go to bed late and solve the case early, and go to bed early without the Spring Festival.
The forensic doctor's living condition was slightly better. After the body was dissected, he took time to sleep, and no one complained. Jiang Yuan didn't even eat pig intestines, pig stomach and chicken last night, and ran to rest.
Now I came over and saw that the criminal police team members of Longli County were indeed like chicken blood, and they looked busier than yesterday.
"Have you caught the person?" Jiang Yuan asked as soon as he entered the door.
"We caught him. He is a local. He has been in other places for a few years and has committed a crime. We are interrogating him." The police officer who was asked just replied, and saw a group of people running down from upstairs again.
"Captain Jiang!" Hou Xiaoyong was in the crowd. Seeing Jiang Yuan, he ran over and reported: "We are going to find the murder weapon."
"Did you tell me about the murder weapon? What was it?" Jiang Yuan also wanted to confirm his judgment.
"A hatchet. I brought it from home. They said that the handle was wrapped with cloth. When I left, I buried it in the soil on the nearby hillside." Hou Xiaoyong spoke in great detail and his tone was excited.
Jiang Yuan nodded. The hatchet is a commonly used tool in the local area, with a long handle and thick blade, which matches the traces seen at the crime scene.
Whether it is from the bloodstain analysis or the wounds on the body, the hatchet is also consistent.
Jiang Yuan asked again: "Was the motive robbery?"
"Yes, he came back from another place and heard that the victim was in the grain collection business and often lent money to grain farmers, so he wanted to rob some money. In the end, he robbed more than 20,000 yuan in cash. The jewelry had not been appraised yet. He planned to take it to another place to sell it, just in time for evidence."
"Just for a few tens of thousands of yuan, he took someone else's life and his own life. He was so young, for example, he could go out to work." Jiang Yuan shook his head. Even if you don't look at it from the perspective of Jiangcun people, this money is not worth killing. With this courage and force, it's better to... find some work with low punishment from the Criminal Law, such as... right.
Hou Xiaoyong smiled and said: "Young age is out of the question. This guy is 52 years old. It's hard to find a job outside. Unless he is willing to go to the construction site, he is definitely unwilling. These people, after all, are lazy and hate work..."
"Wait, 52?" Jiang Yuan interrupted Hou Xiaoyong.
"Yes."
"Did he reveal his accomplices?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"No, he claimed to be a lone criminal." Seeing Jiang Yuan's serious expression, Hou Xiaoyong whispered, "Are there any problems?"
"Yes." Jiang Yuan did not hide the truth, recalling what he saw when he dissected the body yesterday, and said, "The murderer's strength and muscle strength are a bit too much for a 52-year-old. How is the murderer's physical condition? Very strong?"
"Well... not very strong."
"Do you think he has enough strength to cut the spine of victim No. 1?"
Hou Xiaoyong looked at the photos of the scene and immediately recalled the male who died on the first floor, lying in front of the French window with his waist almost cut off. He shook his head and said, "I can't do it. He is just an ordinary man in his 50s. He has some strength, but not that much explosive power."
The lazy murderer doesn't sound like someone who would stick to fitness at the age of 50.
"I'll call Captain Hou." Jiang Yuan took out his cell phone.
Based on what we know now, there is no need to interrogate the suspects. The first thing to do is to expand the investigation. Starting from the existing suspects, check his contacts and interpersonal relationships, etc. Don't wait.
Hou Xiaoyong felt panic for some reason, remembering the suspects he saw crying and confessing in the interrogation room. If he missed a criminal, it would be a big deal.
