Tiger Police

Chapter 572 Analysis
"I was so dizzy at the time that I couldn't even utter a word. I pointed to the door of my house and leaned against the wall to breathe. Lao Pang opened the door and went in. He screamed in fright. As soon as he yelled, the neighbors around came out and called an ambulance to take us to the hospital."

Tian Yongming encountered this kind of case for the first time, and he was in a hurry, so he asked directly without thinking: "What happened next?"

Cao Zhong closed his eyes tiredly: "Later... I passed out in the car, and I didn't know anything!"

Hu Pingtao reached out and pulled Tian Yongming's clothes, then stood up from the stool, motioning him to follow him out of the ward.

When he came outside, Hu Pingtao complained in a low voice: "It is impossible for Cao Zhong to know what happened next! With his current condition, food poisoning, gastric lavage, and rescue immediately, no one can survive it! He can Telling us these conditions is already very good, even if you want to know the situation, you can only go to the hospital for follow-up."

Having said that, Tian Yongming also came to his senses.He shook his head with a wry smile, and explained: "I'm flustered, so I didn't think about it deeply. I just thought that Cao Zhong should know most of the situation, and that's why..."

Hu Pingtao interrupted: "Let's do this! You stay on guard in the hospital. If Cao Zhong's wife and daughter wake up, ask them to see if the two sides can agree."

Tian Yongming nodded and asked, "Are you going to the wholesale market?"

Hu Pingtao said "Yes": "I'll go to the scene to see, maybe I can find some clues."

……

Human life is at stake, and no one dares to be careless.

The market was very cooperative and specifically closed the area where the incident occurred.When Tian Yongming brought people over, the cordon had already been pulled up.When Hu Pingtao arrived with Tang Yuan, dozens of people were already surrounded outside the cordon, all watching the excitement and expressing their opinions in a low voice.

"I heard that all five members of Lao Cao's family died."

"No way! Are they all dead?"

"I heard that too. It seems to be food poisoning."

"What did Lao Cao eat?"

"How do I know? Let's wait for the police to announce the news!"

When Hu Pingtao walked into the house, the first thing he saw was the floor, tables, chairs, and even large pieces of vomit on the wall.

Ding Jianjian came forward in a white coat.He pulled off his mask and said to Hu Pingtao, "I just finished sampling here. I'm going to leave later and go back to the office for analysis and testing."

Hu Pingtao nodded, raised his finger and pointed at the dried up vomit stain on the opposite wall, frowned and asked, "Why is there vomit everywhere? Even on the wall... is this normal?"

Ding Jian turned around, looked in the direction he pointed, and replied: "The amount of vomiting depends on the person, and the amount of food eaten before. This is more or less. If it is the discomfort caused by severe nerve stimulation , which can only be liquid in the fasted state."

Hu Pingtao understood this quite well, and asked, "Gastric juice?"

Ding Jian nodded: "As the saying goes, "vomit all the bile", it refers to gastric juice. It's sour and bitter, so only those who have experienced it say it's bile."

"There are still cases of spit on the wall. I have also handled several food poisoning cases before. Some people were forced to drink dichlorvos, and some people put medicine in their meals. Especially dichlorvos, let alone drinking it I felt uncomfortable even when I got closer to smell the smell. The blockage and resistance of the olfactory nerve felt very serious. At that time, the victim started to vomit after only taking a sip, and then..."

"Wait, wait a minute." Hu Pingtao asked inexplicably, "Since smelling it makes you want to throw up, why do you want to drink it?"

Ding Jian explained: "I have said that the victim was forced to drink. It was more than ten years ago, when I first came into the case and encountered a case. The two sides were fighting for family property, and both sides wanted to kill the other party, and there was a bad luck. The egg was caught, and two people twisted their necks and poured pesticides. As a result, the guy who was held down had a strong reaction and kept vomiting, but the dichlorvos couldn't get in at all. Later, the gang got anxious and simply tied the victim with wire strangled to death."

Hu Pingtao vaguely remembered seeing the materials of this case.His thoughts immediately returned to the food poisoning of the five members of the Cao family.

No matter the ground, table, chair or wall, minced meat, dark green leeks, and sticky off-white undigested dough can be seen in all the vomit.

Ding Jian pointed to the nearest puddle of vomit: "Look, it's all dumplings."

Hu Pingtao nodded slightly: "I just came from the hospital, Cao Zhong...is the head of the family, he has woken up, and said that last night the whole family ate dumplings."

Ding Jian asked rather curiously: "There are five members of this family, two adults and three children. Compared with the vomit at the scene, there should be no problem in terms of quantity. According to the analysis of the situation, it is estimated that the flour or stuffing for making dumplings is not clean. , and that's the problem."

Hu Pingtao lowered his voice and sighed: "This family is still miserable. Speaking of which, the man, Cao Zhong, is also careless. He felt something was wrong when he had dinner last night, and his wife and children also said yes after eating dumplings." Uncomfortable. If Cao Zhong had been smarter at the time, he would have called an ambulance or called the police immediately, there would have been time for rescue, and his two children could have been rescued.”

When Ding Jian heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Two children? You mean, two children died?"

Hu Pingtao said sullenly: "A man and a woman, the younger one has just started kindergarten. This Cao Zhong is a patriarchal person. His eldest daughter is called Cao Zhaodi, and his second daughter is called Cao Pandi. Now his son is dead...just now in the hospital During the questioning, Tian Yongming and I did not dare to mention the matter of the child at all, for fear that he would not be able to accept it."

Ding Jian's expression suddenly became serious.He usually likes to joke, but this kind of thing deserves occasion.The dead are the most important, and the Cao family lost two people at once. It would be really outrageous to joke about this kind of tragedy.

"This case should be thoroughly investigated." Before he was married, Ding Jian didn't care about many things.Ever since he had Yin Li, his thinking has changed: "If it was intentional poisoning...the two children...the person who poisoned him should really be killed!"

He gritted his teeth for the last two sentences.

Hu Pingtao understands this quite well: "After collecting the samples, you should hurry back to the office and make the analysis report as soon as possible."

Ding Jian nodded, his expression suddenly became hesitant.

"Well... there is something I need to tell you in advance." Ding Jian pointed to the semi-solidified vomit on the ground, and lowered his voice: "I have been in the business of evidence detection for more than ten years. Some things don't need instruments. You can tell by looking at it with your eyes.”

"I took a closer look at the vomited things in the house. Regardless of the color of leeks or minced meat, it seems that there are no poisonous substances."

Hu Pingtao was stunned for a moment.

Ding Jian is usually jovial, but he has absolutely nothing to say about his work, and he definitely deserves the words "serious and responsible".

"Are you sure?" he asked doubtfully.

"It's just a visual inspection." Ding Jian replied seriously: "Of course, the specific situation depends on the inspection results after going back. Everything is subject to the report data. I just give you a vaccination in advance. After all, you are the captain, and this case belongs to the You are in charge. What I said should be helpful to you, as long as the direction of the investigation is not crooked."

Hu Pingtao nodded: "By the way, Cao Zhong said, I didn't finish the dumplings last night. Look at the leftovers, as well as the food in the refrigerator. It's best to do a sample test."

Ding Jian rolled his eyes at him: "You don't need to talk about this kind of thing? Do you think Fatty and I have been working as a forensic doctor for nothing for so many years?"

Hu Pingtao smiled and raised his leg and gave him a knee on his butt: "Okay, get out! I'm still waiting for your test report!"

……

Wearing gloves, Hu Pingtao carefully inspected the scene.

More than half an hour passed, and he looked inside and outside the room.

Tang Yuan walked to the side and lightly touched him with his shoulder: "Boss, I guess the cause of this case is Cao Zhong's wife."

Hu Pingtao understood what he meant: "Why, you also think it's food poisoning?"

Tang Yuan nodded and said, "It's not obvious! The doors and windows are intact, and the locks have not been tampered with. The things in the house are also neatly arranged and have not been tampered with."

"Furthermore, the initial inspection report from the hospital has come out: Cao Zhong and his family members were not injured, which ruled out the possibility of outsiders entering the house and robbing them."

Hu Pingtao let out a "huh" and said, "Go on."

Tang Yuan continued: "I asked people nearby. Cao Zhong usually stays in the store to do business. His wife does all the cooking, cleaning, and laundry at home. In other words, what do you eat every day? Cao Zhong's wife has the final say on what to eat."

Hu Pingtao smiled slightly: "I have also noticed what you said. My opinion is the same as yours: there is a high probability that outsiders can be ruled out as committing the crime, but we should not take it lightly. After all, this case is still a bit weird."

Tang Yuan asked curiously: "What are you referring to?"

Hu Pingtao set his sights on the vomit all over the room, and said lightly: "Ding Jian and I discussed this thing before, and we both felt that the amount of vomit was too much."

"When I was in the hospital before, I don't know if you paid attention to what Cao Zhong said. He said that there are three children in the family, and they are all good enough to eat."

Tang Yuan recalled it for a while, then nodded: "That's right, these are his original words."

Hu Pingtao continued: "As the saying goes, half a child eats a poor old man. Cao Zhong has two daughters and a son. Although the son is young, he is still able to eat. It is not easy for Cao Zhong to do business. Zanthoxylum bungeanum is very seasonal, and Cao Zhong doesn’t make a lot of money throughout the year.”

As he said that, Hu Pingtao walked into the inner room, avoiding the vomit on the ground, and said as he walked, "It's just such a big place, with a total area of ​​about ten square meters. There is a bunk bed inside, and Cao Zhong is sleeping on it. Cao Zhong and his wife slept on the bed outside with a cloth curtain in between. They could hear each other if there was any movement. Wait until the night is quiet and the children are fast asleep."

"Although this is a wholesale market, there are several residential areas next to it, and they are not new buildings, but old houses and old houses from various previous units. The rent is also very cheap. A house with an area of ​​[-] to [-] square meters costs only a month. It looks like one thousand, three or four. For those who do business, renting a house near here is really cheap and affordable."

Tang Yuan understood it as soon as he heard it, and said in agreement: "Cao Zhong's store in the market is very small, and his goods are rented from public warehouses. According to what you said, boss, if you rent a house nearby, the place where they live now Only one room can be freed up for storage, which saves a lot of trouble, and you don’t need to run back and forth.”

Hu Pingtao said: "That's why I said that Cao Zhong's shop didn't make much money, at most it was supporting the family."

Tang Yuan seemed to have some understanding: "Boss, what do you mean..."

Hu Pingtao turned around, pointed to the bowl of dumplings on the dining table outside, and said seriously: "A lot of things Cao Zhong said in the hospital were actually quite interesting. Let's just talk about this dumpling! In fact, Cao Zhong and his wife usually The cooking is very simple, at most one meat and one vegetable, and they are southerners, so they have no special interest in dumplings. If Cao Zhong’s youngest son hadn’t clamored to eat them yesterday, his wife wouldn’t have gone to the vegetable market to buy meat and come back with him. noodle."

Tang Yuan nodded: "In other words, Cao Zhong's family rarely eats dumplings."

Hu Pingtao said with a smile: "Continue to think about it. Since you rarely eat it, you may not even be able to eat it once a year. If it were you, even if the child wanted to eat it, what would you do?"

"I'm going to buy it for convenience!" Tang Yuan opened his mouth and replied without thinking: "Buying meat and vegetables and wrapping it by myself... This is really too troublesome."

Hu Pingtao asked again: "Can you make dumplings?"

Tang Yuan replied: "Yes, yes, but I can't arrange it well."

"Why?" Hu Pingtao asked one after another.

"Because I usually eat less!" Tang Yuan replied: "As far as I have the skill of making dumplings, I still learned from my dad. By the way, don't mention it, my dad is from Hebei, and he is very good at making pasta. I can use a rolling pin to roll two sheets of dough at the same time. My dad often boasted that he could make dumplings for five people by rolling the dough by himself.”

Hu Pingtao smiled without saying a word, turned around and went outside with Tang Yuan, put on gloves, and pointed to the unfinished bowl of dumplings on the dining table: "Look carefully at this, what do you think is wrong?"

Tang Yuan moved closer and looked at it carefully.

There are two bowls of dumplings on the table.Ding Jian took away one bowl, and randomly took a few from the other bowl as samples, and brought them back to the bureau for testing.

The white porcelain bowl is very large, nearly twice as wide as the large noodle bowl in the snack bar.It is not so much a bowl as a smaller basin.

There are dozens of dumplings left in the bowl, and they have become cold and hard since last night.

Tang Yuan didn't reach out to touch it, but just watched it intently.

"The technique of making dumplings is so-so!" After a long time, he pointed at the dumplings and commented: "Let's just talk about the appearance, it's really bad, it doesn't look like dumplings at all, it's ugly to look at."
