Chapter 375 Talking Corpse
The conditions for corpses to become moldy are not harsh. As long as the climate and temperature are suitable and there is no influence from sunlight, wind, etc., moldy phenomena on corpses will easily occur.
Of course, most corpses become moldy only in certain parts of the body, and rarely throughout the body.
It is not that there is no mildew all over the body, but it is very rare. Moreover, under particularly suitable external environment conditions, the degree of mildew occurrence is very high, and the mycelium can even grow to a length of about two centimeters.
In ancient literature, the hairy zombies recorded are actually corpses that have become highly moldy in the dark underground. When they accidentally appear in front of the world, they become hairy zombies.
In addition, refrigerated corpses may also become moldy. If the temperature of the freezer in which the corpse is refrigerated is not particularly low and mold grows, the corpse will become moldy.
Wang Changjiang just said that the mildew on the corpse changes in layers, which is relatively rare.
Because mildew will gradually grow over time, but there will be no layered changes.
The occurrence of this change means that two different molds may have grown on the corpse.
That’s why Wang Changjiang proposed the idea of considering freezing.
"The dismemberment of the leg bones and arms... was done with knives."
Liu Guodong opened the connection between the broken arm and the leg bones in the box, and checked it again, frowning and looking a little unsightly.
“Are you sure it’s a knife?”
Wang Changjiang also opened it and took a look. After confirming, his expression didn’t look good either.
To dismember the body, in most cases, the murderer uses an ax or a saw.
The dismemberment cases that the two of them had handled were not two at the same time. Most of the murderers dismembered the corpses in this way, which is commonly known as violent dismantling.
But dismemberment with a knife...
This shows that the other party has a certain understanding of the human bone structure or muscle structure.
In this case, there are generally two possibilities. The first is that the murderer's profession is suitable for understanding the skeletal structure or muscle structure of the human body, such as a doctor.
Another reason is that the other party may have killed many people and dismembered them many times. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
And either way it's not good news.
While the two watched, Lu Chuan turned on the ultraviolet light and scanned the appearance of the box and the body inside.
"There is one."
The weather was gloomy and there was no sunlight to interfere. Lu Chuan increased the power of the ultraviolet lamp, so he could still find some biological traces.
A fingerprint was found on the side of the box, where the handle was.
Let Lao Yang hold an ultraviolet lamp, and Lu Chuan collected fingerprints by taking photos.
The suitcase is made of plastic, and using other methods to collect fingerprints on the handle will cause great interference, so I don’t know how to take pictures directly.
"Old Wang, look here."
Liu Guodong turned the body over and the back part of the torso flowed out.
"This is..."
On the back of the corpse, apart from a small part of the moldy part, there were also large and fine lines, just like the marks on the bamboo mat.
“It seems to be the texture of the bamboo mat?”
“Well, it should be that after being killed, the body was placed directly on the bamboo mat, which left such traces.”
Lu Chuan stepped forward and continued to take pictures.
The reason why corpses can leave such traces is that after death, the muscles of the body will relax.
It is the nervous system that controls muscles. After the human body dies, the nervous system stops working, and the muscles throughout the body will fall into a state of automatic relaxation.
And it shows a relatively regular external shape of the corpse.
For example, the sphincter is relaxed, feces and urine flow together, and then the hands are naturally bent, the thumb is slightly turned in, and the other four fingers are naturally bent to cover the thumb, showing a virtual fist state.
People in this state can also conduct experiments while they are alive. If they actively relax the control of their hand muscles, this natural curling up situation will occur.
It is precisely because of muscle relaxation and lack of support for the skin that the skin will lose elasticity and cannot rebound when encountering external pressure. Therefore, during the muscle relaxation stage after the death of the corpse, what should the corpse be placed on? It will form the imprint of something.
This mark will not be removed unless the body decays. The body in the box was not wearing clothes and was naked.
There were obvious stab wounds on the torso and chest area, and the sharp weapon penetrated the heart, killing him with one blow.
Wang Changjiang and the two continued to examine: "The cause of death was a puncture wound to the chest, a stab to the heart, and excessive blood loss leading to death."
"No other injuries have been found on the body yet."
The surface of the body was clean and there were no other injuries, basically ruling out any violent abuse before death.
"Female, about thirty years old, with corneal turbidity and lens adhesion, obvious signs of convexity, and death time of more than one month."
This is Wang Changjiang's explanation of the cause and time of death of the corpse preliminary judgment made.
"Xiao Lu, come here and take a photo of this."
Liu Guodong pointed to the right hand of the corpse: "There are traces of ring oppression here."
There were obvious signs of ring pressure on the little finger of the corpse's right hand.
“There’s also a neck, it’s here too.”
After Lu Chuan took the photo, he compared it carefully.
Although they are all traces, they are different.
The marks on the little finger of the right hand are covered by the marks of oppression and there are also sun marks on the lighter skin caused by wearing a ring for a long time.
The indentation on the neck should be the trace of pressure from the necklace.
"Master, is there something wrong with this trace?"
Of course Liu Guodong also saw it: "Record it first, and talk about it later."
Lu Chuan nodded, and the others continued Perform spot inspection and superficial examination of the body.
After checking the legs, arms and torso one by one, more than an hour passed.
"This is not the first crime scene. Move the body out first, then detect the trace evidence in the box, and then do the autopsy."
No one objected to Liu Guodong's proposal. This place is really inconvenient to grow. treat.
Soon, the four of them, Lu Chuan and Wang Changjiang, carried the box out of the garbage dump and put it on the car pulling the body by the roadside.
"What have you found?"
Qin Yong asked about the situation immediately.
"Cause and time of death..."
Wang Changjiang gave a general report on the condition of the body: "Go back and do a detailed autopsy, because there may be traces of refrigeration. We will try to get the report out at night for the specific situation."
"Where is Lao Liu?"
"The murderer's method of dismembering the body was very professional."
"If the murderer did not have a professional background such as a surgeon, he was probably a Repeat offender, so I have a suggestion.”
"You said."
Liu Guodong turned back and looked at the huge garbage dump: "The garbage dump is very big. If the other party doesn't just kill this person, I wonder if... in this garbage dump... Is there a corpse?”
There is a corpse?
Qin Yong's face suddenly became more serious.
Liu Guodong continued: "I just talked with the Lihong Police Station. The garbage dump here was cleaned up yesterday and burned."
"After all, the number of scavengers in Cangfanggou Village is small, and the area they can search is limited."
"So, I think, just in case, should..."
These few There are readers who have corrected the text of previous chapters. Thank you very much. However, because it was too early and the chapter was locked, I need to submit the edit for revision instead of not seeing it. Thank you again for the readers.
