989,Death Note(1/2)
As he approached the plastic sheet, Gu Chen could vaguely smell a strange smell.
This professional sense of smell is often more accurate than ordinary people.
That's right.
Under that piece of plastic sheet, there was indeed a body.
Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei came to both sides of Gu Chen respectively. They put on gloves and masks and began to pinch both sides of the plastic sheet and gently peel it away.
At this moment, a young woman with a beautiful face was lying here quietly, as if she was asleep, but her expression was slightly painful.
Gu Chen began to examine the woman's physical condition and found that the woman's skin and mucous membranes were bright red.
After that, Gu Chen started investigating other physical characteristics of the woman, and he probably had the answer in his mind.
So Gu Chen looked around and started looking for other clues.
At the bottom of the big rock, Gu Chen found a lady's small red bag.
But strangely, the red bag was far away from the woman's body, so Gu Chen turned around and asked Xiao Hu: "Have you ever touched this bag?"
"Well……"
When Xiao Hu heard Gu Chen's words, he looked a little panicked.
"Yes or no?" Seeing that he didn't answer, Officer Wang reminded him again.
Xiao Hu and his two companions looked at each other, and then said hesitantly: "There was... it was moved. Because we found the body at that time, we found that she was dead, and we were a little scared."
"But we saw there was a small bag next to her. Out of curiosity, we opened the small bag and wanted to see what was inside, so..."
"So you just went through that bag?" Lu Weiwei asked.
Several people looked at each other again...
This time, everyone just nodded silently but did not dare to say anything.
Gu Chen stepped forward, took out the red leather bag from under the big stone, opened the zipper, and found a cup, a handwritten notebook, and some cosmetics inside.
Gu Chen carefully placed these items one by one, numbered them and took photos.
Then he took the water glass in his hand, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it.
With the blessing of a master's level of observation, Gu Chen quickly discovered something unusual in the cup and couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Junior Brother Gu." Gu Chen's expression made Lu Weiwei immediately notice something fishy.
"Poisonous." Gu Chen said.
"That means this woman died of poisoning?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"Well, this woman's skin and mucous membranes are bright red, and there are some abnormalities. The symptoms of poisoning in her body are particularly obvious."
When Officer Wang heard this, he glanced at the three people who reported the crime.
Perhaps frightened by Officer Wang's gaze, Xiao Hu, who called the police, quickly waved his hands and defended himself: "Comrade police, this matter has nothing to do with us at all. We just happened to pass by and found the plastic sheet here."
"What are you doing here so early in the morning?" Officer Wang asked.
Another young man replied: "We are going to participate in a marathon recently, so we formed a team to come here to exercise. We will climb a mountain every morning."
Seeing Gu Chen staring at the handbag, the man explained again: "We went to look through her bag to see if there was anything like a mobile phone and see if we could contact her family, but we found that there was no mobile phone."
"Don't be nervous." Seeing that the man was speaking with trepidation, Gu Chen asked him to relax and not put too much psychological pressure on him.
The man said "Oh" and stopped talking.
What worries Gu Chen most now is that he didn't find his ID card in his handbag, so he can't identify the woman for the time being.
And the water glass containing poison was obviously the key to the woman's death.
"Huh?" Lu Weiwei followed Gu Chen's example and checked the water glass twice: "It smells of bitter almonds, how could she not know it's poisonous?"
"Don't smell it." Seeing that Lu Weiwei was imitating him, Gu Chen quickly stopped him and said, "It's potassium cyanide. It can be poisonous if you inhale a trace amount. It may also cause poisoning if it comes into contact with the skin."
"Potassium cyanide?" After hearing Gu Chen's words, Xiao Hu and the other two companions were stunned.
I thought that this young policeman knew what was in this water glass just by smelling it? It’s quite impressive when you think about it.
One of the men stepped forward and asked Gu Chen weakly: "Comrade police, is this potassium cyanide very powerful?"
"Yeah." Gu Chen just nodded slightly and explained: "Potassium cyanide deliquesces in humid air and releases trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide gas."
"Hydrogen cyanide has the smell of bitter almonds, is easily diffused, and is easily soluble in water to form hydrocyanic acid."
"No wonder." When the man heard this, he said luckily: "No wonder it smelled just now. Fortunately, I didn't touch it."
Gu Chen glanced at the few remaining liquids in the cup and said, "Cyanide is generally a colorless crystal. It deliquesces easily in the air and has a faint odor of hydrogen cyanide, which can cause the water to smell like almonds."
"So you are right not to touch it, but just to be on the safe side..." Gu Chen glanced at Yuan Shasha beside him and said, "Xiao Yuan, use your water cup to wash their hands with them, just in case."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Yuan Shasha took off her kettle and reminded her, "Come here, I don't have much water. You'd better be lucky that you don't touch potassium cyanide."
"Well."
Several men looked at each other.
Hearing what Gu Chen said just now, he was a little scared, so he quickly came to Yuan Shasha one by one, ready to wash his hands.
Xiao Hu curiously asked Gu Chen: "Comrade police, if your hands come into contact with potassium cyanide, can you just wash them with water?"
"How should I say it?" Gu Chen didn't want to mention it at first, but he considered that several people might have accidentally come into contact with the water cup containing potassium cyanide.
Improper precautions may cause harm to the body.
So he turned around and explained to several people solemnly: "Listen carefully, potassium cyanide should not be touched. You should avoid contact with it. If you touch it, it is recommended to rinse it with clean water immediately."
"After you go back, you can also add a little hand sanitizer and use a toothbrush to help clean it."
Several people nodded silently, mainly because there was a female corpse lying in front of them. The death state of the female corpse was the best proof.
Therefore, several people were afraid of death. When Gu Chen said this, of course everyone had to obey and do it.
Xiao Hu, who called the police, said tremblingly: "Is this thing really so scary? Then if you accidentally touch it, I mean accidentally, will it be okay to clean it like this?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Gu Chen glanced at him and said seriously: "If you have studied chemistry, you should know that potassium cyanide is a white spherical hard lump, or granular
and crystalline powder, which is highly toxic."
"In humid air, it deliquesces and releases trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide gas. It is easily soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol. The aqueous solution is strongly alkaline and hydrolyzes quickly."
"As long as it comes into contact with skin wounds or inhales trace amounts of powder, it can lead to poisoning and death."
"When it comes into contact with acid and decomposes, it can release highly toxic hydrogen cyanide gas. When mixed with chlorate or sodium nitrite, it can even explode. So you say it's scary?"
"Well……"
Seeing that Gu Chen said it so clearly, Xiao Hu could only nod his head.
It can be said that Gu Chen gave him a good supplement of chemical knowledge, so that he knew what he was doing.
Seeing that there was not enough boiling water in Yuan Shasha's water cup, in order to save his life, Xiao Hu asked again: "Do you have any water?"
Lu Weiwei paused for a moment and asked Gu Chen and Officer Wang: "Junior Brother Gu, Lao Wang, do you have water in the water cups you are wearing?"
"I only have half." Gu Chen said.
Officer Wang also said: "I have two-thirds."
"Give it all to Xiao Yuan." Lu Weiwei said.
Afterwards, Yuan Shasha took out the water cups directly from the belt accessories of the two people, called several people aside, and washed their hands again.
Several young people here who cherished their lives began to wash their hands desperately to save their lives after learning about the dangers of potassium cyanide.
On the other hand, Gu Chen took a photo of the woman and sent it to He Junchao in the office, asking him to help determine the woman's identity as soon as possible.
Then he took the hand-written notebook and sat cross-legged on one side to read it.
"The handwriting is pretty good." Seeing the woman's soft handwriting, Gu Chen couldn't help but look through it a few times.
I found that they were all poems and short prose sentences copied by women.
But what surprised Gu Chen was that the contents of these poems were all related to death.
In particular, there are many poems praising death.
In Gu Chen's opinion, this was very abnormal in itself.
"How could a normal person copy such a thing?" Gu Chen hesitated and glanced at the woman beside him.
Lu Weiwei also leaned next to Gu Chen and read the poems excerpted by the woman.
At first, Lu Weiwei was just admiring the woman's handwriting, but later on, Lu Weiwei also discovered a big problem.
The woman's poem is desolate, as if she has no longing or attachment for life.
As Lu Weiwei, who has a good reading comprehension, she only understood two words from these poems, and that was "disappointment".
"Isn't this too pessimistic?" Lu Weiwei shook her head and couldn't help but said: "Does she have a heart disease? Why are the poems she excerpted, all of them negative energy and extremely pessimistic? The sunshine is not good.
?"
"Maybe it has something to do with her own experience?" Officer Wang couldn't judge the woman's situation at the moment, so he could only give his own opinion based on excerpts from poems.
