Chapter 31 The truth in the hot pot restaurant
Although all the guests in the hot pot restaurant have been cleared out, there are still many people watching near the cordon outside the door.
There is no shortage of people who love to watch the excitement everywhere.
Just like men in ancient times liked to listen to music and watch dances.
It’s just that times have changed, and now everyone likes to listen to cross talk.
But considering the possible impact of this case, Qin Yong called Ren Qiang over: "Remove all the people watching outside."
"No one is allowed to take pictures or video."
Qin Yong was actually doing it for their own good. You know, many of these people had just eaten in a hot pot restaurant.
Unlike Lu Chuan and Shen Yan, who haven't used their chopsticks yet, these people are almost full.
"Seal down the scene," Qin Yong has already begun directing the on-site work: "Lao Liu, Lao Wang, your field investigators and forensic scientists will enter first."
At this moment, Lu Chuan and Shen Yan had also put on gloves and masks and began to inspect all the soup pots in the hot pot restaurant.
Although this is not the scene of a murder, when it comes to identifying human bones, the investigators and forensic scientists are obviously more experienced.
On the forensic side are Wang Changjiang and Shen Yan. Now that Yang Sen is not here, Liu Guodong is taking Lu Chuan and Lao Bai.
The next scene made all the detectives present frown.
The sound of retching seemed to come one after another.
"Half tibia."
"A rib and a vertebra."
"This...should be the sacrum, right?"
Everyone was silent except Lu Chuan The voices of the five others were reporting the discovery of large bones that appeared to be human bones.
Every report is like a heavy hammer that hits everyone’s heart.
Two detectives had already gone out and vomited.
The two of them are not novices, they are the backbone of the second operation team. One of them is still very familiar to Lu Chuan, that is Zhang Hui.
The two of them had been to this hot pot restaurant for dinner just the day before yesterday.
The result is now...
There are a total of thirty-six tables in the lobby, and twenty-five of them are already in use.
Lu Chuan and others checked all the soup pots and found bones suspected of being human bones in twelve soup pots.
As the investigation deepened, the faces of Lu Chuan and others became uglier.
Especially the inspection of the kitchen.
"Team Qin," Liu Guodong reported to Qin Yong after completing the entire survey: "We found eighteen human bones in the soup pot in the lobby."
"In the back kitchen A bag of bones was also found in the storage room, which contained pig bones, cow bones, and human bones.”
"The specific number is sixty-two, but whether they all belong to one person...it's hard to tell now."
The bones were all cut into small pieces that can be put into the soup pot for cooking. The specific positions of some bones It's hard to tell the difference.
Qin Yong's face was ashen: "Seal down the hot pot restaurant immediately and take all personnel back!"
Human bones were found making soup in the hot pot restaurant.
This is destined to be another sleepless night.
Thirty-one people, including restaurant owners, are now being questioned.
This time, the forensic doctors and investigators are very busy.
And it’s mutual cooperation.
In the anatomy room, Lu Chuan and Shen Yan were sorting out all the bone fragments.
"This should be a fragment of the scapula...this is the radius..."
"And this...is the clavicle..."
Lu Chuan was specially asked by Wang Changjiang from Liu Guodong to help him.
While at the hot pot restaurant, Wang Changjiang discovered that Lu Chuan had a very good understanding of the human skeleton.
Because the bones have been cut into small pieces, many times, as a senior forensic scientist, he is not sure where the bones are.
Lu Chuan could see it at a glance.
"I did some research when I was in college. Although these bones have been cut, the specific parts can still be determined based on the curvature and lines of the bones." When Wang Changjiang asked about the reason, Lu Chuan answered like this.
“Lu Chuan, thank you, otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to put this pile of bones together.”
“By the way, how do you study human bones? You know better than me who graduated with a major in forensic medicine?"
Shen Yan stretched her waist and felt something in Lu Chuan's eyes.
No one dislikes a man who can work.
Shen Yan and Lu Chuan had many exchanges.
Lu Chuan also felt quite comfortable, and the human bones didn't seem so scary when he was being fucked with a beauty like Shen Yan.
"Read more books. As you know, we sometimes have to analyze the skeletons during the excavation. I learned it at that time..."
"Ahem!"
Wang Changjiang, who coughed twice, interrupted the two of them.
We still have to handle the case.
“Well, Xiao Lu, how is Lao Liu’s side?”
Lu Chuan looked at the quartz clock on the wall: “They should have just completed the preprocessing of the inspection materials. It will take about two hours for the DNA results to be available.”
In fact, there is not much information that can be found about these skeletons.
First, DNA information is extracted from all the skeletons to determine whether these skeletons belong to the same person.
At the same time, attempts are made to determine the identity of the skeleton through DNA information comparison.
Actually, Lu Chuan has already made some judgments on this aspect.
The skeletons found in the kitchen had not been cooked at high temperatures. From their color, shape and size, Lu Chuan could basically judge that these skeletons were formed at the same time and under the same external conditions. They most likely belonged to the same person. human.
Second, it is to test the bones to determine the age of the bones, and to test the age of the bones to determine the age of the deceased.
This is very important. The determination of bone age is an important factor in determining the nature of the case.
For example, if the final bone age is two hundred years, it has nothing to do with the murder case.
People die too early, and those who eat hot pot can only consider themselves unlucky.
Food safety and tomb robbing are more likely.
In short, the pressure on the criminal investigation detachment will be much less.
Wang Changjiang nodded and looked at Lu Chuan: "Now that the sorting of bones has been completed, I am left to apply to Team Qin to take some samples and send them to the provincial department for testing."
The provincial department does it. Test?
Lu Chuan was slightly startled: "Forensic Doctor Wang, we seem to have bone testing equipment here. Can't we do the testing ourselves?"
"Send it to the provincial department... in a minute and a half Yes, the information can’t be returned.”
“Ding!”
"Basic task: complete a qualified skeleton identification analysis and issue an identification report."
Speaking of this, Wang Changjiang looked a little helpless: "The instrument does exist. In the past few years, the provincial department gave it to the city below. The criminal investigation detachment is equipped with a full set of bone quality testing equipment."
"We can also use it, but the analysis is far behind."
Shen Yan on the side nodded: "These instruments. The operation is not difficult, I have been exposed to it when I was in school.”
“But the identification and analysis of skeletons is more difficult. The provincial department stipulates that all identification information reports must be reviewed by experts from the provincial department. As judicial evidence.”
"But the requirements there are very strict. We have done it several times but failed, and we have been tested several times."
"It's not just us, but also several surrounding detachments equipped with instruments. "
"Later we didn't bother with this and sent it directly to the provincial department for testing. They said that our instrument was broken..."
Lu Chuan: "..."
< br>Lu Chuan, who has received the intermediate skeleton identification and analysis skill, certainly knows that it is easy to identify skeletons but difficult to analyze.
However, he didn't expect that it would be so difficult.
However, since this is the case, it is naturally impossible for Lu Chuan to say, I will do it.
You don’t need to ask the provincial department.
This kind of thing should be prepared with both hands.
