Jiang Yuan took the fingerprints and started marking them for comparison.
At the same time, assistant Miao Ruixiang looked at a pot of used oil and half a barrel of arowana, and fell into deep thought.
I only fried one finger in oil, and it looked quite clean. There was only a little bit of white foam left on the edge of the pot. If it floated away... there would be no problem if I fried another hundred or ten fingers.
"Brother, have you poured out the remaining oil?" Miao Ruixiang asked a little uncertainly.
Jiang Yuan, who was comparing fingerprints, was stunned: "What else? Do you want to take it back?"
"No, no, this is not a rabbit." Miao Ruixiang shook his head quickly: "I was just thinking, in case you want to blow up other fingers or toes later..."
"Come on, there are so many fingers that can be fried. There is no need for toes." Jiang Yuan waved his hand.
Frying fingers is not a very popular fingerprint technique. If you think about it, with strong LV2 technology, you can operate it as usual. If there are any restrictions, it means that the conditions of the fingers are required, and the dermis layer must be intact.
Only fingers need to be fried, and only those with extremely damaged epidermis need to be fried.
Among the ten fingers of the corpse on the autopsy table, only one finger meets this condition. However, forensic doctors have invented different ways to deal with fingers at different times, such as making them less decomposed.
Fingerprints can be taken from epidermal gloves, and from a lower level, injections can be taken, etc.
All in all, when it comes to the project of human corpses, forensic scientists have spent hundreds of years working hard.
Miao Ruixiang spent a lot of effort to pour out the remaining oil in the pot, then took a rag and detergent, and scrubbed the pot as if resigned to his fate.
Logically speaking, there is no need to clean the frying pan that fried a finger, but if he didn't wash it, Miao Ruixiang would really be unable to bear the suspicious smell emitted by this thing.
Jiang Yuan sat in front of the computer for a long time.
The fingerprint comparison never produced results.
Based on Jiang Yuan's current level of fingerprint identification, it can be assumed that the fingerprint is not in the database.
"Take this finger and keep it intact." Jiang Yuan specifically told Miao Ruixiang, and then began further autopsy.
The corpse is highly decomposed and the head is missing. It is basically meaningless to examine the body surface. The key point is to obtain some physical evidence or biological examination materials. For example, aquatic plants, fishing lines, fish hooks, and fish floats wrapped around the corpse.
Things like hemp ropes, and any remaining parasites or metabolites must also be removed one by one.
These are very detailed tasks. Not only did the three forensic doctors Jiang Yuan, Miao Ruixiang and Wu Jun work on their stomachs, but the criminal police officers who came to see the situation were also pulled over to help to speed up the progress.
After being busy like this for almost an hour, Jiang Yuan said again: "Ruixiang, start the pot and boil the water."
"Ah? Oh, yes!" Miao Ruixiang didn't react at all. He turned around and realized that it was time to remove the bones.
The best way to remove bones from a corpse is to boil them in water. The bones taken out in this way are white and clean, which is much better than picking them with a knife.
The Ningtai County Criminal Police Detachment bought professional pressure cookers, water baths and other equipment very early. The pressure cooker needs to be disassembled, which is relatively time-saving. The water bath is a stainless steel pot similar to a wooden barrel bath, with its own plug-in heating function.
It can process a whole corpse at one time, but it requires heating a whole bucket of water, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming.
Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry, so he asked Miao Ruixiang to prepare a water bath to put the body in, and then said to Wu Jun: "Master, let's take a rest first? Wait for some time?"
It takes a long time to boil water and then remove the bones. Take Haidilao hot pot as an example. A normal pot is about 10 liters. If you want to cook one person, you will need at least a dozen pots. And the water bath pot
The electric heating capacity is not much better than that of a hot pot.
Wu Jun said "yes", and before leaving, he glanced at the remaining arowana in front of him and said to Miao Ruixiang: "You can add some oil to the pot when cooking, so that it doesn't overflow."
"Oh." Miao Ruixiang felt that he had learned something, but he also felt that it was useless knowledge.
Wu Jun lit a piece of agarwood in the office.
Jiang Yuan studied the fingerprints for a while, but after finding no results, he then studied the video of the scene where the body was found, etc.
Neither of them is too anxious. The core of this type of case is to determine the identity of the body. If this is not possible, solving the case will have to rely more or less on luck.
"Wang Lan is here." Wu Jun answered the phone and put down Guan Gong in his hand.
"Forensic doctor Wang? Are you here to provide support?" Jiang Yuan was a little surprised. The forensic medicine of the Ningtai County Bureau is strong, and it is said that there is no need for support from the city bureau. And Wang Lan and others are actually very busy with their daily work. Qinghe City
With so many counties and districts, they basically have to travel every month.
"It doesn't sound like her tone." Wu Jun said, got up and went downstairs to greet her.
Wang Lan was wearing a uniform, and her thin body was as light as a head carrying the uniform.
Entering Building 9, Wang Lan first looked at him with envy, but before he had time to chat, he said to Jiang Yuan and Wu Jun: "We found multiple fingers here."
"Fingerprints?" Wu Jun corrected.
Wang Lan shook his head and took out a large lunch box from his bag.
Open the lunch box, take out the ice pack inside, and what you take out is a bag of fingers.
"Five fingers, no response to life." Wang Lan said, handed the fingers to Jiang Yuan, and said: "I found it on the roadside in the forward area. It was seen by a dog walker."
Life reactions refer to reactions that only occur in living bodies, such as bleeding, infarction, edema, thrombosis, etc. If there are no life reactions, it means that the finger was chopped off after death.
Therefore, five unresponsive fingers means that there is a corpse behind, or at least a severed arm.
"The fingers are still fresh." Jiang Yuan quickly looked at the fingers, stood up and said, "Let's go to the autopsy room and take a fingerprint."
The three of them then returned to the anatomy room together.
Ding.
When the elevator opens, the strong smell of cooking meat comes out.
The three of them all had cold faces and said nothing. In the territory of forensic doctors, it is best not to be greedy.
Opening the door of the anatomy room, you can see Miao Ruixiang wearing a white mask and a white hat, standing on a stool, holding a large iron spoon, stirring vigorously in the water bath.
The hot steam hit Miao Ruixiang's face, making his face turn red.
"Is it cooked?" Wu Jun asked first as he entered the door.
"It's almost ready. It's almost done." Miao Ruixiang said hurriedly: "Would you like to take one out first and take a look?"
"Stop it. It's very uncomfortable to rub the meat from the bones. Let's cook it and remove the bones." Jiang Yuan was not so anxious. He found another table and spread it out, and began to study the five fingers that Wang Lan brought with him in a lunch box.
