Chapter 231 Discovering Ma Hui's Body (Part [-])
"Delivering diatoms requires inhalation of water," continued Qin Jinhui. "This delivery process works because diatoms can resist mucus in the respiratory system and can cause embolism from the circulatory system to internal organs."

Eve pondered for a moment, "You mean, the blood must flow in order for the diatoms to enter the bone marrow."

"Yes."

"So, the deceased may have stopped breathing when they touched the water."

"That's another possibility. After all, diatoms are found in only a third of all drowning cases."

"Why is the percentage so low?"

"There are many reasons. There are three basic points. First, it may be related to the method of collection. If there are not many diatoms present in the bone marrow cavity, they may be missed when sampling. Second, the victim was underwater. Hyperventilation and coma or spasm of the laryngeal muscles will lead to faster death, resulting in less water inhalation. Third, the blood flow into and through the bones and marrow is relatively low. For this floating corpse offshore, we only examine No samples of lungs, brain, kidneys, liver or spleen were tested."

Eve flipped through the report, and suddenly looked up at Qin Jinhui, "When did you start doing so much research on diatoms?"

Qin Jinhui scratched his head, "I have consulted experts in this area, and I have read a lot of books, so I know some theoretical knowledge."

He has learned so much in two or three days and can apply what he has learned. This man is really smart.

After putting down the report, she called Yan Yunying, but the other party didn't answer.

At first, Eve just had the idea of ​​giving it a try, but she didn't expect that the diatoms could really surprise her. The dead people found in the sea, whether they were drowned or not, were definitely not in the sea.

The body is thrown after death, so this is definitely a murder case!
She was either drowned in tap water and dumped, or killed and dumped.

Eve held the phone and wanted to make another call, but there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and the person she was looking for appeared in front of her eyes.

Yan Yunying frowned tightly, her expression was very bad.

"Another new victim?" Eve guessed subconsciously.

"There may be one more dead." Yan Yunying's words surprised Eve, before she could ask, she continued, "Ma Hui's father committed suicide last night."

"How is this going?"

"Ma Hui's father, Ma Zhongming, got drunk two nights ago and told one of his drinking buddies that he killed his daughter and buried her on the back mountain. The more the drinking buddy thought about it, the more inappropriate he felt. What Ma Zhongming said may be true, I went to Ma Zhongming this morning to persuade him to surrender, and found him in the living room with a shotgun between his feet, and his brains splashed on the ceiling."

Eve was a little surprised, "Shotgun? Can a shotgun within the self-holding range be so powerful?"

"Ma Zhongming was once arrested for possession of firearms. It is very likely that he got a shotgun and modified it after he was released from prison." Yan Yunying glanced at Qin Jinhui who was standing aside, and then turned to Eve, "No matter what , When the police dog went to check, it kept barking at the backyard of the house, and we thought there might be something hidden there."

Ma Zhongming and Ma Hui's family lived in Xiayu Village, Mapo County, Yancheng City. There was a large open space behind the house, so it was very convenient to bury things.

"Have you notified the forensic and trace inspection experts?" Eve asked.

Yan Yunying nodded, "They have already set off."

"Then let's go quickly."

Qin Jinhui ordered the staff to pack up the toolbox, and five minutes later, the two got into Yan Yunying's car and set off.

In the car, Yan Yunying briefly introduced the situation of Ma Hui and Ma Zhongming to the two.

"Ma Zhongming doesn't like crowded places, and he doesn't trust outsiders. He lives in the back hill of the village, and there are no people around. Because he often commits crimes and goes to jail, Ma Hui basically lives in that remote place alone. gone."

A girl who was mostly left to die has been missing for a year and her body may soon be exhumed.

"Where's Ma Hui's mother?" Qin Jinhui couldn't help asking after listening to Yan Yunying's description, "Dad is in jail, so mother should still be there, right?"

"Her mother divorced Ma Zhongming when she was six months old and left her daughter alone."

Eve frowned, "Then what does Ma Zhongming do for a living?"

"I do odd jobs on the construction site, but most of the time I spend stealing. The little girl is also pitiful. A few years ago, she was taken care of by her grandparents. Later, when the old man died, she was left alone."

"Where is her mother now?"

"Still searching."

"Isn't she native?"

"Dongjiang's, don't worry, we will find her soon."

It took more than two hours for the car to arrive at Xiayu Village. Along the way, Eve found that the population became less and less dense. Even after arriving at the village, there were not many villagers left to live in the village, and most of them were old people and children. .

"All the young people have gone out to work." Yan Yunying sighed, "Otherwise, farming alone would not be able to afford the rising prices."

When they arrived at the back mountain of the village, Yan Yunying parked the car at the foot of the mountain, and the group walked up the mountain on foot.

Ma Zhongming's house is very dilapidated, and there are mottled marks on the walls of the house.The yard was littered with the usual litter, old tires, rusty buckets, plastic furniture and a broken cart.

The forensic and trace inspection experts were already busy. Eve and Qin Jinhui put on their overalls and gloves and joined in.

This excavation soon yielded results.

The sun was about to set when I took out a bag of things from the pit.Wisps of sunlight penetrated the leaves and shone on the shallow pit, the plywood, and the big black garbage bag, leaving mottled shadows.

The pit where the corpse was buried did not exceed everyone's expectations.

Forensic officers found a half-empty bag of quicklime in the utility room of the house, along with a long-handled shovel.

The search dogs were still barking.

When Eve cut open the plastic bag with a knife, a rotten but not unpleasant smell wafted out, like the smell of rotting plants, and everyone watching fell silent.

Inside the bag was the body of a child.

When the child was buried, he was wearing a pair of jeans, a pink hooded sweater, and a pair of white canvas shoes. Wu Hei’s hair, which had been scorched into double ponytails, was still clinging to the skull, covered with a layer of dust, and was very dark. Light.

Eve took a look at the teeth of the deceased, who was between ten and twelve years old.

She immediately thought of that photo, the photo of Ma Hui in the report Yan Yunying gave her earlier.

No one speaks, and there is no need to speak.

Everyone understood that Ma Hui had been found.

Eve and Qin Jinhui went back to the office directly, planning to work overtime to check the corpse.

My father is dead and my mother has not been found.

In fact, even if she finds it, it may be useless. After all, she has been away for ten years. She will not know what happened to Ma Zhongming or Ma Hui during this period.

She wouldn't care too much about a child who was abandoned under one year old.

Yan Yunying and Deputy Team Yao stayed in Xia Yu Village and continued to deal with Ma Zhongming's house, searching and sampling every inch.

On the way, Eve called Li Hao and told him to go back to the office to prepare for overtime.

When Eve and Qin Jinhui returned to the office, the girl's body had already been placed on the autopsy table in the autopsy room, and Li Hao was also waiting by the side.

"The X-rays of the corpse's bones have been taken." Seeing the two people coming in, Li Hao hurriedly went up to them and handed over two pairs of gloves.

Eve took the gloves and put them on, and gave Li Hao an appreciative glance, "Very good."

Walking to the autopsy table, Eve leaned over and started the preliminary examination.

Quicklime is believed to accelerate decomposition.No, the calcium oxide merely masks the smell of decay, and its presence does just the opposite to deter scavengers.

Time has its own laws when it comes to dealing with corpses.Although the body was not destroyed by animals, only a skeleton and some hair remained, and there was no soft tissue left.

Li Hao took pictures, and Eve carefully removed the rotten clothes and spread them flat on the workbench.

Hoodie, jeans, underwear.

Li Hao looked at these clothes, feeling a little heavy, "That scumbag is dead, it's better for him!"

People like this deserve to be cut to death!

Eve pursed her lips, did not speak, and focused on her bones.

The shape of the girl's skull and facial features suggested that the deceased was Asian, and the branches of the phalanx pelvis suggested an age of eight or more.The base of the thumb lacks a small round bone, the sesamoid, indicating a prepubertal stage.The development of long bones suggests her age was between nine and ten years old.

For children, gender discrimination is less precise.Although both the clothes and the ponytail pointed to women, Eve cautiously left the column of physical attributes blank.

While making records, Yan Yunying called, and the DNA in the deceased's dental pulp and Ma Zhongming's DNA confirmed the parent-child relationship, which is equivalent to confirming the identity of the deceased.

Eve wasn't surprised.

After confirming the identity, the overtime work is over, "The rest will continue tomorrow, and everyone will go back and have a good rest. They may be very busy in the near future."

Before, she was not sure if there was any connection between several disappearance cases, and whether they were committed by the same person.

But judging from Ma Hui's case, at least this case should exist independently.Just, is that really the case?

Maybe Ma Zhongming is related to some mysterious organization?

Eve didn't think about it until she went to bed.After falling asleep in a daze, she entered a fragmented dream.

boy.the sea.The raging flames.blood.lifeboat.

After waking up, Eve was still thinking about those incoherent dreams, and once again felt that the memory that was erased from her might soon be restored.

I looked at the time, it was only a little past five o'clock.

Eve got out of bed, walked to the dressing table, turned on the laptop, clicked to enter the an website, and entered the three words "seven deadly sins" in the search bar.
