Lin Feng of the Criminal Investigation Brigade has been having a headache recently. First, the body of an unknown man was found in an alley, with bite marks on his body. Then there was a fight in a bar street, and the director of the Land Bureau was violently killed in a mansion. Today, another one was reported from the regional police station. The body of an unknown man was found dead. A wooden cross is inserted into the body.
"Could this way of death be any weirder?" Lin Feng complained to the team members around him as he set out to rush to the scene.
"Haha, yes, I heard that there was an arcade owner in the second group who was struck to death by lightning while sitting in the room." It seems that there are really weirder ways to die. Lin Feng had also heard about this case, and he could only shake his head helplessly when Huang Tao mentioned it.
A cordon has been set up outside Wang Ziqiang's house. A group of forensic doctors and on-site evidence collection personnel are busy in the house. Lin Feng puts on his ID and walks in. Because he is an old criminal investigator, many people are familiar with him. Everyone he saw nodded at him when he came in.
The forensic doctor squatting on the ground was no exception: "Captain Lin, we have met quite frequently in the past two days."
"Yes, if we continue like this, the city's population will be reduced by half in a few days." Lin Feng was wearing gloves while fighting the forensic doctor. "what's the situation?"
"The deceased was a male, aged between 25 and 27 years old. He did not have anything on his body to identify himself, but he was definitely not the homeowner. His body was penetrated by a cross-shaped wooden instrument. He had suffered a high-voltage electric shock before his death. We cannot be sure at this time. The cause of death requires further autopsy." The forensic doctor stood up straight and reported to Lin Fenghui.
"What about the time of death?" Lin Feng wondered why the forensic doctor ignored such important information this time.
¡°This, we can¡¯t judge at the moment,¡± the forensic doctor replied with some embarrassment.
"Can't judge? Did I hear you correctly? Isn't that what you do?" Lin Feng thought it was strange.
"There is something special about this corpse. In addition to being definitely dead, there is no rigor mortis, no body spots, and no liver temperature." This is the first time that I have encountered such a strange situation.
"That means the death time is too long?" Lin Feng was a little confused at first, and after thinking for a while, he added, "Or is it too short?"
Normally, rigor mortis usually begins to appear 1 to 3 hours after death. After 12 hours, rigor mortis reached the whole body. Rigor mortis lasts for about 6 hours and begins to ease, and the body becomes soft again. The appearance of corpse spots also has a certain time pattern. Blood circulation stops after death. After half an hour at the earliest, the blood falls and accumulates in the blood vessels at the bottom of the corpse due to its own gravity. The skin there shows purple-red spots, like red wine at the bottom of a bottle. This is the corpse stain. Corpse spots appear no later than 4 to 10 hours after death. Its color lasts very long. If a corpse does not show rigor mortis or spots, it is possible that it was discovered just after death. At this time, the time of death can be judged by liver temperature. The body stops producing heat after death, and the temperature of the corpse will drop approximately every hour. 1 degree. The approximate time of death can be determined based on the body temperature, but the strange thing is that this person does not have liver temperature yet. In short, this is a contradictory question.
¡°It¡¯s not certain yet, and it needs to be taken back for further autopsy.¡± Forensic medicine is a rigorous profession, and he cannot make any arbitrary inferences, otherwise it may mislead criminal investigators.
"Okay." After hearing what the forensic doctor said, Lin Feng had no choice but to "open it up and let me take a look." Because Lin Feng was the last to arrive, he never saw the whole body since he came in. The forensic doctor was already conducting preliminary inspections and taking photos. Then the body was covered. After hearing what Lin Feng said, the forensic doctor walked over and lifted the head.
"It's him!" When Lin Feng saw this man's face clearly, he still knew this person.
"Do you know him?" the forensic doctor asked after hearing this.
"Zhan Shaocheng, I have dealt with him before when I was doing anti-grabbing." Speaking of which, Lin Feng is not so disgusted with Zhan Shaocheng, because in a certain sense, Zhan Shaocheng is not a bad person.
"Hey, it looks like this is a burglary." After hearing the captain's words, Huang Tao came up. "No wonder the deceased was not the head of the household. It seems likely that the head of the household committed the murder in self-defense."
"Don't talk nonsense. I just asked the police handling the case. The head of the household is a missing person. There is no news yet." Linlin, who came with them, is the only woman among the three and is mainly responsible for recording.
"Missing? He probably absconded out of fear of crime. He was scared to see someone killed." Huang Tao continued his speculation.
"Stop guessing," Lin Feng said sternly, "investigate the case carefully, don't make preconceptions, I only need two words for everything - evidence!" After saying that, he dropped Huang Tao and walked towards the bedroom.
Huang Tao was scolded by Lin Feng, but he didn't care too much. He stuck out his tongue at the forensic doctor and immediately turned around to look for other clues.
Lin Feng¡¯s mood is actually a bit hard to describe now. I recall that the first time I met Mr. Zhan was when he first joined the criminal investigation detachment. Because he had just joined the team, he was assigned to the anti-pocketing team This somewhat made him feel a little angry. At that time, he was young and energetic, and he always thought that he should do something big and grand, instead of catching a few thieves who stole people's wallets.
"Lin Feng, report the case to the People's Hospital, please go over there as soon as possible." When the team leader entered the room and saw that Lin Feng was the only one there, he naturally assigned tasks.
"Hospital?" Lin Feng asked strangely. Now that the thief is no longer committing crimes in the downtown area, he has gone to the hospital?
"Hey, we caught a thief." The team leader's expression was smiling, as if it was a very interesting thing.
"If we catch them all, then it's over if we send them to the police station." Lin Feng was a little unhappy.
"This, it's a little different. I have to wait for you to come over and give it a qualitative answer. Go quickly and you will know after you go." The team leader also had a hot temper when he was young, but in recent years he has become a lot gentler. Lin Feng heard that He was emotional but didn't say anything. He still said it in a kind tone.
Lin Feng came to the hospital with a lot of questions and frustration. When he found the security room, he saw Mr. Zhan, who was only 21 years old at the time. He had a tall and thin figure, tight jeans, a black leather jacket, and bloodstains on his hands and body. .
"What's going on?" After looking at Mr. Zhan, Lin Feng turned around and asked the hospital security guard. Killed someone or something.
"Burglary." The security guard handed Lin Feng a cigarette with a smile on his face.
"I was brave enough to do what was right, okay?" Mr. Zhan, who was covered in blood, heard the security guard say this and immediately defended himself loudly.
After Zhan Shao's narration and what the security guard learned about the situation, Lin Feng gradually formed a mental picture of what happened. First of all, he was sure that the man named Zhan Shaocheng must be a thief. However, during the burglary, a pregnant woman at home happened to fall and bleed heavily, and she made a temporary guest appearance. For a moment, the brave young man took the pregnant woman in his arms and went straight to the hospital. Fortunately, he arrived in time. When he arrived at the hospital, the pregnant woman still had the strength to scream like a wolf, but it was unethical enough. Master Zhan put her on the On the bed, she grabbed Mr. Zhan with her backhand and shouted to catch the thief, and was controlled by the hospital security guards.
Mr. Zhan insisted that he first heard the pregnant woman yelling inside and then opened the door to take a look. At most, it was considered as trespassing. Lin Feng waited until the pregnant woman had finished the caesarean section and waited for more than an hour before waking up and asking I didn¡¯t know if it was because of my conscience. After I woke up, the pregnant woman said that she couldn¡¯t remember whether Mr. Zhan entered her house first or heard her shouting first. Later, I learned that the pregnant woman didn¡¯t leave anything at home. She took it back and asked casually. After questioning Lin Feng, he let him go, thinking that the two of them would never meet again. Unexpectedly, not long after, he received Mr. Zhan again. The case this time was also very interesting. The family traveled abroad and when they returned home, they caught Mr. Zhan sleeping soundly on their bed, so they went to the police station. , as soon as they found out that the criminal investigation detachment handled the case last time, they sent it over. The victim didn't lose anything at home, but there was some extra bread and milk in the refrigerator. What does this mean? In the end, he was sentenced to breaking into a private house. The circumstances were minor and he was detained for a few days. Although Mr. Zhan was never caught again after that, there were frequent similar calls to the police. It seemed that Mr. Zhan lived in this house for a few days and did not steal anything. He also worked part-time to clean the house, wash clothes and cook. Lin Feng was speechless, but if he didn't catch the current situation, he wouldn't be able to convict him. Unexpectedly, a few years later, when I see you today, it will be a cold corpse.
