Psychic assistant to the forensic doctor

Chapter 81

After dinner, Cheng Jin and Fang Rui quietly left the hotel, they were going to an appointment.

"Cheng Jin, do you think that old forensic doctor can really provide some information?" Fang Rui asked a little depressed after taking a puff of cigarette.They came all the way here just to find some clues from that case back then.

The autopsy of that year was not recorded in the files. According to the director's recollection, an old forensic doctor had performed an autopsy on the corpse in the fire.But for some reason, the case was classified as child trafficking, and the autopsy report was destroyed.

"At least give it a try." Cheng Jin also held the cigarette in his sharp fingers, with a cold expression on his face.He took a puff of the cigarette, and then slowly exhaled the smoke ring, spreading out in the night.

Fang Rui knew that Cheng Jin would only smoke when he was depressed.However, even when encountering a very complicated case, Cheng Jin never showed such an expression.

"How is your problem with that woman going?" Cheng Jin asked, shaking the ashes.

"What else can I do? I can't figure it out. I think I will be in her hands for the rest of my life." Fang Rui sighed and said helplessly, but there was a tinge of joy in his tone, "However, there is someone who likes you." It's better to be alone than to die alone."

"I seem to like someone too." Cheng Jin's voice was a little lonely.

Fang Rui was unprepared, he was choked by the smoke immediately, coughed a few times, and asked in disbelief: "What did you just say? Who do you like?"

Cheng Jin didn't give any explanation and walked straight forward.Although Fang Rui hated this kind of half-talking behavior, he could only keep up with Cheng Jin.

After all, they have more important things to do.As for the children's personal relationship, it can only be temporarily put aside.

They walked along the narrow path, turned around and came to a somewhat dilapidated one-story house.

Fang Rui knocked on the door, and when he got a response, he opened the door and went in.

In the living room, an old man in a blue cloth and reading glasses was sitting on a rattan chair, reading a book under the dim light.

Although the house is dilapidated, it is clean and tidy.Many human anatomy diagrams are pasted on the wall, and a bookshelf is placed in a corner of the living room, which is full of books and files.

Seeing Cheng Jin and the others come in, he raised his head, closed the book, and asked in a hoarse voice, "You are the two young people Xiao Zhang mentioned, right?"

"Yes, the director asked us to ask you for some information," Fang Rui nodded, and replied, "Medical Doctor Zhou, I'm sorry to bother you."

Although this forensic doctor Zhou has spent most of his life in this small town, his forensic skills are still not inferior to the forensic doctors in the city bureau.They heard a lot about his deeds from the chief, so both Fang Rui and Cheng Jin respected him from the bottom of their hearts.

Zhou Yaoyang asked them to sit down and poured them a cup of hot tea.

"Do you want to ask about the past?" Zhou Yaoyang took off his reading glasses and asked, "Oh, it's been so many years, Xiao Zhang hasn't given up yet!"

"I heard that you dissected the corpses in the fire, did you find anything?" Cheng Jin asked straight to the point.

"Of course." Zhou Yaoyang stood up tremblingly, took out a dusty file bag from the bottom of the bookshelf, and handed it to Cheng Jin, "Those people in the fire didn't burn to death at all, and their death The time is very far apart, and they did not die on the same day. Three children were still dug up from the ground, and they have already turned into white bones."

That means that the fire was to cover up a certain secret, and it was not a simple child abduction case as written in the closing report.

Cheng Jin brushed the dust from the file bag, and then opened it. Inside was the autopsy report at that time.

It said that six people died, including one adult woman, five children, three men and two women.

"Is there an adult woman at the scene of the fire?" Cheng Jin asked in surprise.There was no such record in the file given to him by the director.

"Yes, there was no clue to this case back then. In order to close the case, the institute classified it as a child abduction case, and deliberately concealed the existence of this woman's charred corpse." Zhou Yaoyang nodded and replied.

"Isn't this closing the case indiscriminately?" Fang Rui felt that they were too unprofessional in doing so. How could the case be muddled so casually?

"But there's nothing we can do about it," Zhou Yaoyang sighed. "This case is so weird that we have no way of investigating it. Do you know what those corpses look like? Those children's heads are all It was cut open, and the brain tissue inside mysteriously disappeared. In order not to cause panic among the public, the case had to be closed in a hurry.”

In this peaceful town, this can be regarded as a particularly serious murder.In addition, most of the dead were children, and the building that caught fire was a haunted house, so it caused a sensation in the whole town.

At this moment, Fang Rui and Cheng Jin looked at each other, the brain tissue mysteriously disappeared?
This reminded them of the case they handled a year ago. At that time, homicides occurred frequently in a well-known mental hospital in the city. The deceased had a characteristic—the head was cut open, and the brain tissue inside disappeared.Later, after a series of investigations, they found out that the murderer was a schizophrenic patient with delusions of persecution.And it was a psychiatrist who planned all this.

But when he wanted to bring the doctor to justice, he committed suicide by taking poison in front of them.So his real motive for the crime was never known, and the missing brain tissue was never found.

At that time, experts in criminology analyzed the doctor's motives and finally came to a conclusion that the doctor had been in contact with mental patients for a long time, leading to psychopathy, so he continued to plan murders in order to take revenge on the society.

But both Cheng Jin and Fang Rui felt that this reason was too far-fetched. If it was for revenge against the society, why did they take away the patient's brain tissue?

However, for the police, solving the case is the most important thing. As long as the murderer is caught, the motive of the crime is a matter for experts.

Fang Rui and Cheng Jin also investigated in private, but they didn't get any useful information, so they just let it go.

"The body of this adult woman is complete, isn't it?" Cheng Jin asked, pointing to the autopsy report.

"That's right, I also thought it was strange," Zhou Yaoyang replied, "The cause of her death was excessive blood loss. The cause of death of the other children was poisoning."

Cheng Jin was startled, maybe those children were the real target.And Su Ye was supposed to be one of them, but luckily she escaped.

So what is the purpose of the people behind planning all this?Is it to catch Su Ye back, or is he using her to achieve some purpose?
"Are there any clues in that case?" Cheng Jin asked, "For example, is there anything special left at the scene of the fire?"

"Yes," Zhou Yaoyang nodded, then picked up a piece of white paper, and drew a symbol Ψ on it with a pen, "We saw this symbol on the unburned arm of a boy."

Ψ, the Greek letter, pronounced sai (plug), meaning mysterious, unknown.

A trace of surprise flashed in Cheng Jin's eyes, because he had seen similar tattoos on Su Ye's arm before.At that time, he also thought it was a religious symbol, but it was not connected with the case.

"You should know the meaning of this symbol, right?" Zhou Yaoyang asked, "At first I thought it was related to some religious activities, but after thinking about it carefully, I found it wrong. Because the cut marks on the skull are neat and professional The dissection tools should be made by people who have learned dissection. So the murderer should be someone with a medical background."

"Did you have no one to suspect at the time?" Fang Rui asked puzzled.Now that the investigation was carried out and the murderer was found to be a person with a medical background, the case should have progressed.

"The building that caught fire was called a ghost building by the people, and at the foot of the mountain, few people would approach it, so we couldn't find out who lived there. As for the dead, they were burned beyond recognition. Unrecognizable face."

"Have those people with medical background checked it?" Cheng Jin asked.

"Hey, how can there be any professional medical personnel in our poor place. Except for me, there are only a few barefoot doctors who know a little about human anatomy, but they all have alibi." Zhou Yaoyang said with a sigh.

After this conversation, everyone present suspected that the murderer might not be from this small town.

"Forensic Zhou, do you remember this girl?" Cheng Jin asked, putting Su Ye's photo in front of Forensic Zhou.

　From this chapter on, I'm going to show my brain hole. (Covering face) The story in the mental hospital was originally intended to be written, but later on (I want to write a free article), I shortened the outline, but the integrity of the story will not be destroyed.
