When Gu Qiancheng received the news, he immediately rushed to the ten-mile slope outside the city. The King of Qin and the officials from Liumen had already arrived, and Sanju's body was dug out. There were three small bundles next to them, which were their children.
"Qiancheng." Seeing Gu Qiancheng from a distance, Qin Jiyan stepped forward.
Gu Qiancheng was fully armed, holding a medicine box in his hand, and asked: "Your Highness, what's going on?"
"Sanju's corpses have been dead for about half a month and have rotted. They were dug up accidentally by the villagers." Qin Jiyan told what he knew. The officials from the six gates shut up obediently and refused to talk to His Highness Qin.
Grab a living.
"Okay, I'll go take a look." Gu Qiancheng found a clean place, opened the medicine box, took out his robe and put it on, and handed Suhexiang Pills to Qin Jiyan, "Your Highness, do you need it?" Every time
When Gu Qiancheng performed the autopsy, His Highness Qin would also accompany him.
"Okay." Qin Jiyan took it and consciously took out the mask and gloves from Gu Qiancheng's medicine box and put them on.
The smell of rotting corpses can make people sick.
Gu Qiancheng was fully armed and asked someone to follow her with pen and paper to take notes.
No one had touched Sanju's body since it was dug out. It was only covered with a layer of white cloth. Gu Qiancheng asked people to uncover it. The smell of rotting corpses spread instantly. Many people turned their faces away. They couldn't stand the smell. It was serious.
Some had to hug a tree and vomit violently.
The smell was so strong that even through the mask, the rancid smell still hit his face. Gu Qiancheng took several deep breaths to prevent himself from being suffocated by the smell.
The deceased was completely naked, with no identifiable clothes on her body. The corpse was rotting and leaking corpse fluids. There was not a single piece of good flesh on her body. Her appearance was not visible. She only had an open belly and a child beside her, telling everyone that she was a pregnant woman.
.
Gu Qiancheng has encountered cases where a pregnant woman was killed and the fetus was removed, but this was the first time he had seen three cases in a row.
The flesh on the corpse rotted into mud and could not be touched. There was not enough equipment here to allow Gu Qiancheng to use the tissue of the deceased to determine her identity. Gu Qiancheng could only check it carefully, one by one, without fear.
Dirty, not afraid of the smell and touching the corpse in person.
"The deceased was a female, about four and a half feet tall, aged between 18 and 23 years old, with thick joints and suspected to have worked all year round. There was a half-inch long hole in the abdomen, which was suspected to have been cut before death, and the uterus was in the abdomen.
, the placenta was completely removed.”
Not much could be seen from the female body, so Gu Qiancheng checked the fetus on the side. "Baby girl, eight months old, with clear vision, complete limbs, and sound development. She died of suffocation after birth. The body has not rotted.
It smells of medicine residue and medicine, and it is suspected that it was soaked in medicine after birth."
The three corpses of women and three infants all died in the same way, and they were all healthy pregnant women and baby girls. The youngest baby girl was eight months old, and the oldest baby girl was about to give birth, but she was still alive.
Cut it open and take it out.
Just listening to Gu Qiancheng's judgment, Qin Jiyan had some guesses, but this case could not be decided based on guesses.
"Can you picture what they looked like? I'll have someone come pick up the bodies." After the inspection, the existence of the bodies was of little significance, and the bodies were so rotten that they needed to be buried as soon as possible.
"Okay, I'll get a pen and paper." Gu Qiancheng took off his gloves and put them on the ground. He took a new pair of gloves from his pocket, then returned to where he was, took out his sketchpad and started drawing the face of the deceased.
Soon, the charcoal pen drew lines on the white paper, and the appearance of an ordinary woman appeared on the paper.
The appearance of the three deceased persons was not outstanding, and coupled with their working hands and feet, it was easy to guess their identities.
The family background of an ordinary pregnant woman from a farm family is not too bad. Although she needs to work after pregnancy, she does not have to worry about food and is well-fed.
Qin Jiyan gave the portrait to the official at Liumen, "We will find the deceased's family within three days."
With the portrait in hand, three days was not a short period of time. The official took over the job without saying a word and stayed to deal with the aftermath.
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng returned to the six doors after inspecting the scene. His Highness Qin had already told him that as soon as Gu Qiancheng arrived, there would be hot water for bathing and clean clothes were ready.
Two-quarters of an hour later, Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng cleaned up separately, and the two of them came to Qin Jiyan's office room to meet in tacit agreement.
Qin Jiyan arrived first and saw that Gu Qiancheng's hair was not dry yet, so he asked someone to bring a towel. He stood behind Gu Qiancheng and wiped her hair. At the same time, he did not forget to ask about the business: "This case,
What do you think?"
Gu Qiancheng leaned in Qin Jiyan's arms, closed his eyes and said, "Do you know about Zihe Che?" Gu Qiancheng did have something to say about this case.
"I know. Ziheche is the human afterbirth, the placenta, which is the placenta delivered by a healthy mother. It is red when the mother is delivered, and turns purple after being left for a while, so it is called Ziheche. Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" records:
, the navel is tied to the mother, the fetus is tied to the mother's spine, it is formed by the mother's shade, the father's sperm and the mother's blood. Although it is an acquired shape, it actually has innate Qi, which is obviously not comparable to other metals, stones, grass and trees. Its nourishing effect
It is extremely heavy. If you take it for a long time, your ears and eyes will be brightened, your beard and hair will be black, and your life will be prolonged." Some people in the royal family also consumed Zihe Cha, and Qin Jiyan knew about it to some extent.
Gu Qiancheng said with a serious look: "It is said that Zihe Che has the effect of delaying aging and rejuvenating people. The normal method of making Zihe Che is to wait for the pregnant woman to give birth naturally and then take the placenta for medicine. From today's three
Judging from the deaths, it seems that someone specifically killed healthy pregnant women who were about to give birth, just to take the placenta for medicine."
"So, the pregnant women who disappeared one after another in the past were all kidnapped just to get the placenta?" Qin Jiyan paused while wiping his hair, and his mind quickly flashed back to the case files he had seen before, "In the past ten years,
There have been more than 200 missing pregnant women reported to local governments, and this is the first time a body has been found."
"I just saw the place where the body was buried. The place was chosen very interestingly. The terrain is very high, and the body was buried so shallow. The soil pressure was not tight. If the rain was a little heavier, it would be exposed. It doesn't look like anything at all.
It was to bury the body, but it was deliberately exposed to us." Gu Qiancheng knows more than just autopsy, there are many things that can be seen at the scene...
"Before, the missing pregnant women were all in remote towns, and only one or two disappeared a year. Local officials did not pay attention to it. However, in the past two years, they have gradually come to the capital, and the number has increased very quickly. Now there are three corpses. Look.
It looks like someone is deliberately drawing our attention to this matter." Qin Jiyan frowned slightly, thoughtfully.
Gu Qiancheng agreed with Qin Jiyan's point of view: "According to what you said, it was not an accident that the other party killed the pregnant woman to take the placenta, but it was planned and premeditated. The other party has not exposed any traces for more than ten years, making the government suspicious. It can be seen that
There must be a powerful organization behind it. Now that clues have emerged again and again, there should be an internal struggle, and someone deliberately caused trouble for us to find some clues."
This is the tragedy of law enforcement officers. Crimes are committed in the dark, and the places they can see are really limited. It is easy for criminals to escape justice...
