Department of Psychology Forensic

Chapter 107
"hiss……"

When Zhou Zheng saw the bloody head, he couldn't help but gasp. Even a student of forensic medicine like him couldn't resist the visual impact.

The head was broken from the neck, and the flesh and blood tissue could hardly be seen. What you saw was the cervical vertebrae stained with bright red blood. The broken ends of the bones were irregularly jagged. The appearance, especially the right half of the face, is full of signs of gnawing and biting, and the cheekbones have been exposed.

The parietal bone of the cranium was severely damaged, half of the interior was empty, and almost all brain tissue was gone.

That's horrible!
It's so miserable!

He had never seen such an injury case in textbooks, let alone witnessed such a scene with his own eyes.

Not only was he greatly shocked, but even Cui Jun who was holding the head fell silent.

"This head should have been destroyed by a Siberian tiger in the lion and tiger garden. It has lost the value of anatomical identification!"

A look of helplessness flashed in Cui Jun's eyes. The results of the anatomy of the brain were very helpful in identifying the cause of death. Without the results of the brain, it would be difficult to completely determine the cause of death in other parts.

What's more, judging from the current situation, the corpse cannot be complete.

"Well...you check it...I'll ask the monitor."

Xia Yan backed away with a pale face. He was the captain of the criminal police team and had seen many corpses, but such a miserable corpse was the only one he had ever seen in his life.

This caused his body to have an uncontrollable physiological reaction, and streams of acidic water kept pouring up from his stomach. If he stayed here for a while, he might spit it out.

You must know that in this place, it is not only the visual impact, but after the head is pulled out, the stench continues to overflow.

This is the smell of blood and corpses mixed together.

It smells terrible!

After Xia Yan found an excuse, he quickly left. Except for Cui Jun and Zhou Zheng, no one in the surrounding area was willing to approach the corpse.

"Wait."

At this moment, Cui Jun stopped Xia Yan directly, without turning his head, he asked directly, "How many Siberian tigers are there in the area where the victim is?"

"Three or four... I'm not sure, at least two, this kind of tiger doesn't seem to live in groups." Xia Yan's face became even uglier.

"It's okay." Cui Jun continued to dig into the sack, and then took out a long bone with broken ends.

Seeing such a scene, Xia Yan couldn't bear it any longer, and hurriedly ran away, leaving behind a sentence, saying: "Forensic Cui, I'll go and ask how many Siberian tigers there are."

"This is……"

Cui Jun frowned slightly, exhaled heavily, and said, "This bone is relatively slender, its two ends have been crushed, and it is in the shape of a triangular prism as a whole. It should be the ulna of the forearm. It seems that the deceased has been bitten and dismembered." gone."

Next, Cui Jun took out a few more bones from it, including broken ribs and fibula of the lower leg. Only these bones that were not meant to be eaten remained, such as tiny bones such as finger bones and toe bones. , for Siberian tigers, just chew it twice and it will be crushed.

"Now there is nothing of value left here. Let's take the bones back and examine them carefully to see if we can find any clues."

Cui Jun was full of helplessness. He did not put these bones back into the sack, but put them into a professional body bag. Since it was damaged once while bagging, it cannot be damaged again.

"Uh-huh."

Zhou Zheng followed suit and nodded. Looking at such a scene, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

In the face of such a corpse, what he could think of was the same as what Cui Jun had done. This already belonged to the category of mutilated corpses, and it was very difficult to obtain any substantive clues from the autopsy.

This is an unconventional boneless autopsy!

The phenomenon of ossification is a late-stage death change, and it is a difficult type to identify in the field of forensic identification. Of course, it is also a relatively rare type in forensic on-site inspections.

The phenomenon of ossification can be classified into two categories.

One is directly exposed to the external environment, and the other is buried deep underground.

Strictly speaking, the bones they saw from the sack belonged to the first type, that is, they were exposed to the outside environment, but the corpse was eaten by carnivorous animals, and the preservation of the corpse was very poor, even the condition of the clothes It is difficult to judge.

"Zhou Zheng, let's go back to the forensic center. I want to examine the corpse immediately." Cui Jun said with a serious face: "It's not too late."

"Understood!" Zhou Zheng quickly put away the inspection box, assisting Master to carry the body bag, and prepared to return.

The two of them had just walked out of the liger and tiger park. Looking at the empty zoo road outside, they suddenly realized that their car hadn't driven inside.

"Please contact the staff of the zoo and take us out." Cui Jun said to the police next to him.

"Okay." The police immediately picked up the phone to communicate.

A few minutes later, a tourist bus drove over to greet Cui Jun and Zhou Zheng. The staff driving the car was not the person they saw when they came, and they didn't speak a word along the way.

When Cui Jun and Zhou Zheng returned to the entrance of the zoo, they got off the sightseeing bus and could still see many tourists who wanted to enter the zoo. I had no choice but to leave.

Returning to the parking lot, Cui Jun put the body bag into the trunk of the car, and drove quickly towards the direction of the Municipal Bureau.

"Master, did you discover anything?" Zhou Zheng sat in the passenger seat, hesitated for a long time, and then spoke slowly, expressing his doubts.

During his postgraduate studies, he minored in criminal psychology, but this major does not only have such a subject, it also has psychology-related content, but it focuses more on studying the psychology of criminals.

When he was in the lion and tiger park just now, he noticed that Cui Jun's expression was not right. It was not because he saw the bloody scene, but more like he had discovered something.

Combined with Cui Jun's eagerness, Zhou Zhengfang came up with such a guess.

"A little bit, but I'm not sure." Cui Jun held the steering wheel, looked straight ahead, and drove much faster.

"Tell me about it." Zhou Zheng asked curiously. He had an attitude of trying. He was not sure if Cui Jun would say it. It is easy to mislead the judgment, and the correct way to open it is to make inferences based on evidence.

"Hmm... okay." Cui Jun hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and said, "There are two fibulae in the corpse, and they were damaged to the same degree. Both of them have been eaten. medullary cavity, but I found that the size of the medullary cavity of the two fibulae is different."

"Master, do you mean that this is something special about the victim, and can it be used to confirm the source of the corpse?" Zhou Zheng asked in a deep voice. He was asking a speculative question, because from what Cui Jun said , he failed to accurately comprehend what the master wanted to express.

"No..." Cui Jun shook his head, remained silent for a moment, and continued, "I suspect that these two fibulae do not belong to the same person."

"What?!" Zhou Zheng's eyes widened immediately after hearing such words, and memories of scenes in his mind echoed in front of his eyes.

That was the scene when Cui Jun opened the sack to look at every corpse just now. It was like a replay of a movie, which resurfaced in front of his eyes and played in slow speed.

At the very beginning, Cui Jun discovered a fibula. Although the joints at both ends were damaged, the body of the fibula could still be determined to be the fibula of the right leg.

Immediately afterwards, Cui Jun took out another fibula from the sack, which was similarly damaged and about the same size, and it was obviously the left fibula.

If one does not carefully observe the interosseous medullary cavity, it is difficult to judge whether the two bones belong to the same person, and a preconceived notion will instinctively arise in the human mind.

"If the two fibulae do not belong to the same person, then it means that this is not a case of one person's skeleton, but a case of several people's bones, and then it can prove that the body parts in the lion and tiger garden were dismembered and thrown away by the murderer. Whether you took the wrong body parts by accident or did it on purpose, further inspection is needed." Cui Jun said seriously: "The most important thing at the moment is to confirm whether these body parts belong to the same person."

"Details!" Zhou Zheng couldn't help but sighed with a thumbs up. Every time he came to such a moment, he felt that his career had a long way to go, and it would take time to transform the knowledge he learned in books into his own abilities. However, if you encounter this kind of case that is not very common in books, it is more calm and meticulous that needs years of experience to transform.

"I suspect that the skull of the deceased is not the same person as those two fibulas." Cui Jun said in a low voice.

"That is to say..." Zhou Zheng deduced according to Cui Jun's way of thinking, and said, "We still don't know how many people's body parts are in this dumping?"

"This is what I think, if it can be confirmed that the two fibulae do not belong to the same person, then this is not an accident, but a homicide, but I can't be sure whether the murderer threw all the body parts of these people into it, but I think This is more likely." Cui Jun took a deep breath again, and this is where he finds the case troublesome.

"I understand." Zhou Zheng immediately caught up with Cui Jun's thinking, and said, "I also heard what Team Xia said just now. When Lu Ming, the breeder in C12 area, was feeding the Siberian tigers in the morning, he felt that they were losing their appetite. , When it was noon, there was still no response to eating, which was obviously full."

"That's right, that's what I mean. I just asked Xia Yan to know how many Siberian tigers there are in the free-range garden of C12. Siberian tigers are solitary animals, but how many Siberian tigers are kept in zoos?" We are in the same environment and in a harmonious state, and the main reason for this is that each Siberian tiger has enough food, they will not go hungry, and naturally have no desire to attack their own kind." Cui Jun's tone paused. After a while, he said, "Assuming there are only two Siberian tigers inside, can the meat from one person keep them from being hungry until noon?"

"The Siberian tiger doesn't seem to eat that much..." Zhou Zheng thought quickly.

"Therefore, there is a contradiction here." After Cui Jun turned a car bend, the road ahead was smooth, and then he continued: "If the number of Siberian tigers is not enough, or their appetite is not large, then the victim should have the rest. There are more body tissues, or bones, but even the bones have obvious signs of gnawing. Three quarters of the victim's bones are gone. Judging from the extent of the damage, it seems that these Siberian tigers have been hungry for several times. sky."

"Master, what you mean is..." Zhou Zheng's pupils shrank slightly, thinking of many possibilities, but he still wanted to hear what Master had to say.

"Ring-ring--"

However, at this moment, Zhou Zheng's cell phone rang. He immediately took out his cell phone and saw the word "Xia Yan" written on the caller ID.

"Captain Xia, what instructions do you have?" Zhou Zheng answered the phone immediately.

"Forensic Cui is driving!" Xia Yan said clearly.

"Yes, he is driving, and I will play the call." Zhou Zheng held the phone in front of him, pressed the button of the speaker, and transmitted all the voice of the call.

"Forensic Cui, I have confirmed with the park that there are two Siberian tigers in the place where the victim fell." Xia Yan said: "Siberian tigers are solitary animals. These two belong to husband and wife and get along relatively harmoniously. There are so many independent partitions in the liger and tiger garden of the zoo, just to create a feeling of living alone."

"How much meat can a Siberian tiger eat per meal?" Cui Jun asked suddenly.

"How do I know..." There was some helplessness in Xia Yan's voice.

"Ask." Cui Jun said lightly.

"Okay, I'll ask right now, wait for my call." After finishing speaking, Xia Yan hung up the phone.

7 minute later.

Zhou Zheng's cell phone rang again, and he turned on the speakerphone directly.

"Forensic Cui, can you hear me?" Xia Yan's voice came from the loudspeaker.

"Yes, you can tell." Cui Jun stared ahead intently.

"I asked the breeder. Generally speaking, Siberian tigers only eat one meal a day. Each meal eats 12 kilograms of meat, mainly beef and pork. After six days of continuous feeding, they will starve for a day. Today is The next day, I ate yesterday." Xia Yan said.

"Sure enough!"

Cui Jun's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said: "Each Siberian tiger eats 12 kilograms of meat for a meal, and two Siberian tigers eat 24 kilograms of meat. The average weight of an adult is around 60 kilograms. There will be 40 kilograms, but judging from the number of carcasses and the degree of damage, it is obvious that it does not match the food intake of Siberian tigers."

"Forensic Cui, could it be..." Xia Yan's voice faltered and stopped.

"The murderer deliberately threw the body parts into the lion and tiger garden, not only to throw the body, but also to cover up the number of body parts, but he missed the food intake of the Siberian tiger!" Cui Jun said his speculation .
