Chapter 446 Skeleton Identification
While Lu Chuan and others were digging up bodies overnight, inside an office building in Haizhou City.

The office faces the most prosperous street scene in Haizhou City. The large floor-to-ceiling windows are like a canopy, covering three walls of the office.

On the only side facing away from the wall, on a solid wood desk, the scene of the Lion Rock Bridge and Lu Chuan and others lifting the skeleton was playing on the computer screen.

The picture is broadcast in real time, but the definition is not very high. It can be felt that the location of the candid shooting is relatively far away, so the picture definition is not very high.

The middle-aged man sitting in the boss's chair holds a burning cigar in his right hand, and standing next to him on the right is another man whose age cannot be discerned.

"Boss, what should we do next?"

The middle-aged man took a puff of a top-quality cigar from abroad and turned off the computer without caring.

"What should I do? Let Lao Mo just stop selling fish. What will happen if I find it? It's just a corpse with only bones left. What does it have to do with us?"

"Also, don't make your own decisions in the future and be so passive."

"Who asked you to attack that policeman? Didn't they just find some clues?"

"You can find the body as soon as you find it. What's the use?"

"A bunch of trash!"

……

Haizhou City Criminal Investigation Detachment.

This time the autopsy examination was conducted in the forensic autopsy room, but Wang Changjiang and Shen Yan were in charge, and Lu Chuan was the main force in the examination.

Logically speaking, corpse identification is the job of forensic doctors, but Lu Chuan's ability in skeletal identification and analysis was recognized by Zhang Yuanchao, the provincial department's first forensic doctor.

It was most appropriate for Lu Chuan to do this job.

"Master, this soil needs to be taken to us for analysis. The degree of compaction and color of the soil are somewhat different from the soil around the corpse. I suspect it must have been soaked in blood at that time."

Five years have passed, and many things can no longer be observed with the naked eye. We must rely on experiments to determine the situation at that time.

"Okay, I'll take the other physical evidence back with you for identification."

Liu Guodong was talking about the fragments of clothing found around the body.

Next, Lu Chuan began to continue the identification and analysis of the bones.

"Male, 1.7 meters tall, weighing 43 kilograms, between 45 and [-] years old."

Regardless of the police officer's certificate found at the scene, the information Lu Chuan obtained from the skeleton itself was consistent with Wang Mingshan, who was missing at the time.

"Cause of death...direct mechanical death."

The skeleton is in a curled-up state, and the skeleton must be grasped when found. This is a typical reaction of the body's natural struggle after being buried alive due to mechanical suffocation.

At the same time, there were slight traces of friction on the carpal bones of the wrists. The handcuffs probably abraded the skin and rubbed against the bones during the struggle, leaving traces.

"The head of the corpse suffered blunt force blows and there were slight cracks in the skull."

"The third, fifth, seventh and eighth ribs were broken, and there were signs of bone cracks in the left tibia."

"Judging from the injuries on the skeleton, the deceased had been tortured before his death and had serious physical injuries."

"...Left tibia...this mark..."

When checking the fracture scar on the tibia of his left leg, Lu Chuan discovered a strange mark.

"what?"

Wang Changjiang came over to observe the traces discovered by Lu Chuan.

"It's a little strange. This mass... seems to have been engraved by humans..." In fact, the so-called pattern is just a few long and short lines, somewhat similar to the marks left by a knife cutting through the bone wall.

"It should be a scratch with a sharp weapon, a mark left when the other party tortured...?"

This is possible. The other party obviously tortured Wang Mingshan physically before killing him.

The skull was shattered, the ribs were broken, and there were cracks and bruises on the leg bones, indicating that he had suffered a very severe blow during his lifetime.

The process of skeletal identification this time was relatively simple. The identity of the corpse had been identified by extracting DNA from the bone marrow, and it was confirmed that it was Wang Mingshan who disappeared that year.

At 12:30 noon, I had no time to eat, so the investigators and forensic doctors jointly made a work report.

"First, through DNA information identification, it was confirmed that the skeleton found under the Lion Rock Bridge was that of the criminal policeman Wang Mingshan who disappeared five years ago."

"Second, Wang Mingshan died because he was buried alive, but he suffered very severe torture during his lifetime."

Liu Guodong just made a simple report, because Qin Yong had been at the scene from the time he started searching for the bones last night until he exhumed the bodies this morning.

In order to save time, Liu Guodong did not report the entire previous process.

"That's the basic picture."

Qin Yong's face was ashen. In the disappearance case five years ago, when Wang Mingshan disappeared, there was suspicion that he was dead, but without seeing the body, there was no way to draw a conclusion.

Now that the bones have been found, all that's left is to solve the case and catch the murderer who killed Wang Mingshan.

Early this morning, when Lu Chuan and others were conducting identification and analysis on the bones, Qin Yong personally went to the Municipal Public Security Bureau and reported the situation to Song Jiangguo in person.

When Wang Mingshan disappeared five years ago, Song Jiangguo was the director of the Haizhou City Public Security Bureau. The disappearance of that year had a huge impact, and he was very aware of it.

Not only does he know the story of the case, but he also knows very well why the case was dropped in the end.

So this time, after listening to Qin Yong's report, Song Jiangguo went to the next level to report without stopping.

Wang Mingshan disappeared when he went privately to investigate the disappearance of the police, and the case involved Songbei Mining.

Let’s not mention that Songbei Mining is a star company in Haizhou City. Let’s talk about the case of the missing policeman investigated by Wang Mingshan. Now that Wang Mingshan is dead, where is the missing policeman?

The boss behind Songbei Mining is now in a high position and is not just a businessman.

Therefore, it is necessary for Song Jiangguo to report to a higher level.

Just an hour ago, Qin Yong received a call from Song Jiangguo.

"No matter who is involved, no matter how large the scope is, we will never tolerate it once it gets to the bottom of the investigation."

With this instruction or promise, Qin Yong naturally dared to investigate the case boldly.

In fact, Qin Yong had already made a decision before this. As long as he was not replaced, this case must be investigated to the end.

One of his subordinates died, and if he didn't give an explanation, why would he be wearing this police uniform?
Of course, there is no need for Qin Yong to tell Liu Guodong, Lu Chuan and others these details. Some of the pressure needs to be shouldered by Qin Yong, the leader of the criminal investigation detachment.

People outside only need to work, solve cases, and deal with technical issues.

"What are your views on this matter?"

Although Wang Mingshan's body was found, judging from the situation at the crime scene, there were no clues pointing to the murderer.

In fact, it can be seen from Ren Qiang's car accident that the other party is a very experienced veteran.

The case itself will not be easy to detect.
