novice forensic medicine

Nov. 2013, 1

Early in the morning, Zhou Ning came to the office. He didn't wear the navy blue down jacket that Xia Momo bought for him today. After all, he wore it on the first day yesterday, and he happened to be on a field survey site. He thought about it and changed into a police uniform coat.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Liu Yongxin who was about to come out.

"Master, are you going out?"

"Well, I want to go see the guy downstairs taking a bath. I don't know if I have enough time."

Zhou Ning smiled, hung his coat on the coat rack, grabbed his mobile phone and followed Liu Yongxin's pace.

"Let's go together, I think Da Zhao and the others will go down too?"

Liu Yongxin nodded.

"Come here early in the morning, Da Zhao couldn't bear the nagging of those boys, so he went down to watch it. After all, I've seen it before taking a bath, and this is the first time for a mummified corpse to take a bath."

Talking while walking, the two came to the second dissecting room. As soon as the door opened, several people squatting in front of the stainless steel pool in the dissecting room jumped up at the same time and looked at Zhou Ning and Liu Yongxin in horror. His face was a little pale.

From this expression, it is not difficult to see that these boys must be Liu Xiangrui, the No. [-] deceased who was doing SPA in the research pool.

Seeing Da Zhao like this, Zhou Ning almost couldn't control the expression on his face, coughed, and then turned his head to support Liu Yongxin and walked towards several people.

"How, how is the recovery?"

Da Zhao seemed to want to bark his teeth hard, showing that he didn't care, but the corners of his lips twitched a few times, but he still couldn't force out the smile.

"I was scared to death. The timing of your opening the door was too accurate. We took the courage to remove the cloth on the pool. Zou Jialong wanted to reach out and touch the skin of the deceased to see if it had recovered its elasticity. After all It seems that the effect is not bad, it opened before touching the door, it is all the fault of Xiao Pang, this kid advocates metaphysics, and asked us if we have amulets."

Seeing what Zhao said, Pang Tianhang quickly waved his hands.

"I'm not engaging in some feudal superstition, but my mother is afraid that I will encounter unclean things when I go out, so she hangs an amulet for me, which I have been wearing since I was a child. I think it is quite effective."

Zhou Ning patted Xiao Pang on the shoulder. The kid was so anxious that his lips were trembling. He was taken aback and hurried to explain that his nerves and muscles could not cooperate for a while, but he still pulled the faded red rope around his neck. When I got down, I was about to throw it away, but Zhou Ning stopped me. The faded red string was a mother's blessing to her child.

They can not care about it at all, and even get used to receiving such blessings and care every day, but this is what Zhou Ning desires most.

That dream has not reappeared for a long time, but the knot is still there, and the envy is always there.

"It's okay, I understand. I don't always say that the end of Western medicine is Chinese medicine, and the end of Chinese medicine is metaphysics. In fact, we are the same. There are many things. Sometimes I really can't explain clearly. This is your mother's expectation and blessing for you. Don't throw it away. .”

Da Zhao glanced at Zhou Ning. He understood what Zhou Ning was feeling. He broke Xiao Pang's fingers holding the amulet, wrapped the red string around it, and stuffed it directly into his pocket.

"Do whatever you are asked to do, don't force yourself, get the dissecting table ready quickly, push the trolley over, wear three layers of gloves, don't ask me to change your clothes, how long have you been here, these Do you still need to be reminded?"

With such a yell, everyone was still afraid. It seemed that some switch was pressed in an instant, and everyone quickly put away their expressions. Those who should change clothes changed clothes, and those who should prepare the flat car were ready. Zou Jialong was fast and had already left. To the stainless steel sink, ready to wait for handling.

Zhou Ning did not speak, and stretched out his hand towards his side. Da Zhao had already handed over the LED magnifying glass light. Liu Xiangrui's body was completely submerged in the bottom of the stainless steel pool. The body is 80% water.

The abrasion on the little finger of the deceased Liu Xiangrui caught Zhou Ning's attention, and burr-like skin lesions could be seen on the abrasion, Zhou Ning was surprised this time.

At that time, I heard Professor Li Chengbin talk about it. He wrote down this Lufeier solution. At first, he was curious. It's a blunder.

"The effect is good. Take out the corpse and put it on the dissecting table."

Da Zhao sighed.

"Before you came in, we were studying this problem. How to fish? One person on each side? Or can we use tools, such as a fence or something like that? The pool is ok, but it's too deep. If you reach in, you can't reach the bottom. Department, you can’t jump in, can you?”

Needless to say, Zhou Ning was stumped by this question. Liu Yongxin came over, pointed to a corner of the pool and said:
"There is a hole here, and there is a valve on the outside. Just point it at the sewage tank and pour the water out. I remember that there are no special chemicals in it?"

Zhou Ning shook his head. They followed Liu Yongxin's instructions, walked to the edge of the sewage pool, opened the valve at the bottom, and the soaked Lufeier solution gushed out instantly. They waited for a while at the bottom of the pool.

With a wave of Liu Yongxin's hand, several people pushed the stainless steel pool directly to the dissection table as required. When they arrived here, without Liu Yongxin's orders, Sun Gaotie, Xiao Pang, Xiao Zou, and Wang Henjian jumped into the pool and held the corpse Lift and place gently on the dissecting table.

For a moment, everyone let out a long breath.

Zhou Ning had finished dressing at this time, and carefully checked the body surface with a magnifying glass with LED lights. The scratches on the deceased's fingers were obvious, reaching deep into the dermis, but there was no blood scab. It seemed that this was a post-mortem injury.

As for the deceased's head, neck, torso, and limbs, all of them were inspected, and no problems were found, even in the mouth and rectum. This discovery made Zhou Ning a little puzzled, and Liu Yongxin also came over.

"Why, apart from the head injury, no other trauma was found?"

Zhou Ning nodded.

"It stands to reason that if the head injury is so serious, at least the forehead and the body will have injuries caused by the fall after the beating, but except for a postmortem scratch on the little finger of the deceased, nothing was found on the deceased's body. When you hit the head, did you sit or stand obediently?"

Da Zhao shook his head.

"Why do I have a feeling that when this person was hit on the head, he had lost consciousness, or was completely unable to move. Otherwise, who would honestly wait to be beaten?"

Zhou Ning did not speak, and checked the mouth of the deceased again. There were no scars in the mouth of the deceased, and there was no sign of prying it open. He glanced at the skeleton photo on the big screen. Although the injury to the head of the deceased caused the skull to collapse, the state of the mummy It is hard to say whether there will be found in the brain.

But thinking of the bone grinding piece he took earlier, he quickly looked at Zhu Xingxing.

"Yesterday, you were asked to submit the skull fragments for examination and make bone grinding slices. Has the result come out?"

Zhu Xingxing stuck out his tongue, and hurried to Xia Momo. Xia Momo had already helped her log in to the mailbox, and then the big screen displayed two reports of bone grinding pieces, four bone grinding pieces, and only the top of the skull. Blood cells were found on the bone grinding slides, but none of the others.

Seeing this, Zhou Ning frowned, but didn't say anything else, and directly signaled Zhu Xingxing to start preparing for the video.

Zhu Xingxing cleared her throat, clicked on the video button, and introduced it at a slow pace. These were already familiar to her, and both Zou Jialong and Pang Tianhang looked envious.

After all, it is really admirable to remember so many details in my mind.

After receiving the scalpel, Zhou Ning began to dissect, opened the chest and abdomen, and took out the digestive tract. This tissue's "hydration" is not particularly sufficient, but this replenishment state is already considered the limit. If it is soaked again, it may accelerate corruption. See Less than the details you want to discover.

Putting it on the tray, Zhou Ning didn't rush to deal with the internal organs, but directly cut open the stomach, the shriveled stomach was empty and there was no food at all.

The stomach wall is still damaged, and the inner wall is full of erosion and ulcers. Zhou Ning carefully observes that these injuries are not caused by simple gastritis or physical diseases.

It was a bit shocking to find that the deceased was very thin and could not achieve the feeling of anorexia, because the muscle lines of his arms and legs were very good, which was formed by years of exercise.

With such a state in the stomach, the deceased was starved for at least five days before death, or even longer.

Zhou Ning paused, cut open the dead man's intestines, checked around, and found a thumb-sized tan substance in the dead man's duodenal bulb. It was hard and curled, and it was impossible to tell what it was. .

Putting this piece of material in the curved plate, Zhou Ning raised his chin directly towards Zhu Xingxing. Zhu Xingxing took it, numbered it and handed it to Sun Gaotie.

"Send it for inspection, let's see what substance this is?"

Sun Gaotie lifted it up to take a closer look, pulled off the mask in doubt, looked at Zhou Ning and said:

"Boss, I think this looks like a belt. You can see the embossed bumps on it. Could it be that a piece of the belt was torn off and eaten? Is this an anti-Japanese drama? How could such a thing happen in this day and age?"

In a word, Zhou Ning was reminded. He glanced at Sun Gaotie. This kid was already a blockbuster if he didn't make a sound. Not to mention such an analysis, it was really possible. Zhou Ning held up the material again and sent it to the magnifying glass. Sure enough, indentations can be seen on it, but I am not sure if it is a tooth mark, and there are torn fibers on the edge.

It seems that Sun Gaotie's analysis is good, it looks like a piece of leather, but how hungry is Liu Xiangrui, the second deceased, that he needs to eat this thing to satisfy his hunger?

Thinking about it, the movement of his hands didn't stop. Zhou Ning held this thing, put it on the teeth of the deceased, and compared several directions, only to find that the deceased was biting with the right fangs. I checked the upper right canine, and it was indeed a little loose.

"The analysis is very good, but it still needs to be sent for inspection, and everything must be confirmed by the inspection results."

Sun Gaotie ran away grinning, unable to hide the joy of being praised.
