On the dissecting bed, thick liquid kept flowing out.
At first, there was a lot of water, and some people used clean water to rinse it. Gradually, everyone pretended that they couldn't see it anymore.
The entire dissecting room seemed to be flooded with abalone juice. This scene was as rare as cooking four large pots of dried abalone in a Cantonese kitchen.
The pressure cooker "pop-pop-pop" started to work.
Another stainless steel cauldron was brought over.
Wang Lan said: "Just cook it normally in this pot, use this bag..."
The bodies in the four bags were stored for different years.
In the longest bag, the flesh inside has almost liquefied. In the nearest bag, there seems to be some muscle tissue hanging on it. However, as the bag is opened, its oxidation degree increases visibly to the naked eye, and it can be used.
Get some DNA or something.
The corpse that was cooked in the pressure cooker just now was the one with the middle level. Now, Wang Lan chose the oldest one.
Because if you use an ordinary pot to cook it, the process will be more complicated. Choose one that is older and easier to remove the bones.
Two unknown forensic doctors stood up, silently selected some bones and put them into a stainless steel cauldron.
The Qinghe Bureau bought a local stainless steel pot used for steaming steamed buns. If the pots are laid out layer by layer, it will not be a problem to steam fifty or sixty steamed buns.
Now if you add bones and meat, it won't be a problem if you put thirty to forty pounds.
Some of the meat that had not been completely removed was piled into stainless steel barrels with the bones attached.
The two forensic doctors deliberately put in less, selected the spine and pelvis and put it in, then started adding water, and then boiled it over the fire.
The forensic doctors in the room were all a little silent.
The main reason is that we are not familiar with each other, and the second reason is that the smell is too unpleasant.
Especially the boiled bones have a bit of fragrance, but also have the stench of spoilage, or the smell of corpses that fills the nasal cavity...
Jiang Yuan guessed that the reason why humans hate this kind of smell so much is because the body has solidified its dislike of this kind of smell in the DNA chain-it probably means something like "can't eat it, run away".
"Have you all eaten?" Niudong Niu Forensic Doctor felt that he should do his part as a landlord.
"You go ahead, I'll watch the cooking." Forensic doctor Wang Lan usually assists, but this time he also acted as host.
As he spoke, the water in the stainless steel pot boiled. Forensic doctor Wang Lan stepped forward and turned off the low heat, saying: "This pot needs to be simmered for three or four hours. You go eat something first and then come over and scrape the tendon."
The principle of boiling human bones until they are deboned is the same as boiling pork bones until they are deboned.
Similarly, when the meat is cooked until it falls off the bone, there will still be some tendons or fascia remaining on the bones. At this time, if it is cooked again, it will easily deform the bones, so use a knife to scrape them clean.
Jiang Yuan instinctively didn't want to eat, so he said, "I'm not going either. It's too troublesome to change clothes."
Several younger forensic doctors decided to stay.
There are not enough shower heads in the bathroom, so even if everyone wants to go out, it is impossible. As for the smell that was stained today, if you don't wash it off properly, you won't be able to go out.
Instead of taking off your clothes to show off your style, it’s better to wear clothes to show off your style.
Wang Lan probably has the same idea. She is a female forensic doctor and is not affected by it at ordinary times. At this time, it is inconvenient to use the bathroom and so on.
"Then let's go have a meal first and come back to pick you up." Niudong greeted and took the others, including Longli County's forensic doctor Lao Ye, to change first.
Wang Lan said "yes" without saying much. He went to get a spoon and flipped the bones in the stainless steel pot to prevent them from sticking to the pot and making it difficult to handle.
Wang Lan, who never cooks at home, who would have known that she is extremely good at cooking boneless meat.
Taking advantage of his free time, Jiang Yuan opened another plastic bag, turned out the pieces of meat inside, and roughly spliced them together.
The quality of the plastic bag is excellent, and there are weighted stones inside, so you can carefully scan for fingerprints and DNA. However, Jiang Yuan is not too optimistic about it.
Jiang Yuan rummaged through the corpses mainly to see if there were any features on the corpses that could help him find their origin.
Better things like tattoos may remain even if the body has decomposed. Another example is hair. If it still exists, it at least proves that the body is not bald or bald, etc.
Facts have proved that Jiang Yuan still thinks too much.
The four corpses all looked ordinary, at least they had not joined the Marine Corps of the United States or anything like that.
After Wang Lan stirred the stainless steel pot three times, the bones in the pressure cooker were ready.
With a sullen face, Wang Lan found a pair of chopsticks and lifted the air valve of the pressure cooker. Hearing the sound of deflation and the strong smell of meat coming out.
The few forensic doctors who stayed in the autopsy room were too lazy to speak.
To be honest, considering the time, everyone was a little hungry, but it was not appropriate to even sip at this time.
Regardless of whether others think it is appropriate or not, Jiang Yuan himself feels it is inappropriate.
Fortunately, all the abalone juice has been eaten up, otherwise it would have been wasted.
"It's open." Wang Lan waited for the gas in the pressure cooker to release, then opened the lid.
I saw a thick layer of oil floating on top of the dark soup.
Wang Lan sighed and said, "People are a little too fat now."
"The fat must have gone rancid." Another forensic doctor from the city bureau said, and then looked over and said, "Maybe he was a fat man before he died. This is fatter than my boiled elbow."
"The body fat rate of pigs is only 15%, which is not much different from my body fat rate." Wang Lan is lean and lean. It's just that women are born with higher body fat rates than men.
Several forensic doctors present couldn't help but look at Wang Lan and nodded.
Wang Lan rolled his eyes, went to get another large bottle of alcohol, and poured it into the basin.
Rinse the outer layer of the boiled bones with water, and then soak them in alcohol to remove the final lipids.
The bones turned white and clean. When the light shined, they were slightly yellowish, and the visual impact was very weak - after all, the autopsy bed next to them was full of dirty and smelly corpses.
"Let's line it up." Wang Lan called Jiang Yuan over to identify the characteristic bones together.
Among the several forensic doctors present, Jiang Yuan was the one she trusted the most.
Although the other young forensic doctors are several years older than Jiang Yuan, in terms of ability, they are still orders of magnitude behind Jiang Yuan.
Wang Lan had carefully seen Jiang Yuan's autopsy, which was originally part of her job. Jiang Yuan was obviously very talented in forensic anthropology.
Among all the tasks on site, identifying bones is the easiest.
Jiang Yuan and Wang Lan cleaned up an anatomy table together, and then arranged the bones on it piece by piece, using a skeleton lying on it as a model.
Others helped wash the bones into alcohol, then poured out the water in which the body had been boiled, put in other body parts again, added water, and continued cooking.
At the same time, several young forensic doctors were also observing the work of Jiang Yuan and Wang Lan.
Dismemberment cases are still very rare.
For forensic scientists, this is also a rare learning opportunity.
In fact, in a normal dismemberment case, the body parts would not be cut into such small pieces.
Most murderers, even those who committed dismemberment cases, may have initially killed with passion. When they decided to dismember the body in order to cover up the crime, most of them did not think clearly about the difficult situation they would face.
Human bones are actually very hard and heavy.
Nowadays, women weigh less than 100 kilograms, men weigh at least thirty kilograms more, and there are many men weighing 150 kilograms. In other words, if a man is cut into five pieces, each piece will weigh
It weighs 30 kilograms, and just the process of moving it is tiring.
Imagine a butcher cutting up pork. Common pigs weighing more than 100 kilograms or 200 kilograms are hung in mid-air to be cut. This is because this position saves the most effort.
Ordinary people, who have no experience in dismembering corpses, would not know the importance of attaching iron hooks and hanging ropes.
In addition, the cutting itself is also very difficult. The skill difficulty of Cutting Ox must be at least level 6.
The kind of person who can't even figure out which piece of meat the tenderloin is and knows how to cut it in the waist and the neck is considered very good. If you want to dissect the body more carefully, you must know how the greater trochanter and the lesser trochanter are formed.
Otherwise, you need to use powerful cutting equipment, such as a chain saw or the like.
But still, there will be many difficulties in dividing it, and it will be very tiring.
Therefore, in most temporary dismemberment cases, the bodies are relatively large.
Many of the corpses in this case weighed less than 10 kilograms, which at least shows that the murderer was strong and physically strong and knew how to operate powerful instruments.
Jiang Yuan took a piece of bone, took a look at it, put it on the dissecting bed, and then took out another piece.
Wang Lan also did similar work, but she first rummaged through the pile of bones to find the bone she wanted, and then took it out and put it on the dissecting bed.
All those present were forensic doctors, and everyone quickly saw the difference.
Wang Lan stopped silently.
Although she was familiar enough with bones, she could just pick up a random bone and put it in a fixed position on the dissecting bed with certainty - she could do it, but the efficiency would be much lower.
The most important thing is that this method cannot allow Wang Lan to develop a sufficient understanding of the bones and affect her judgment of the bones.
Therefore, Wang Lan simply stopped and prepared to wait for Jiang Yuan to finish laying out the bones before starting from the beginning again.
Jiang Yuan quickly moved his pelvis out.
When the young forensic doctor next to him saw this, he had already made a judgment and said:
"She is a woman. She has given birth."
"About 40 years old."
…
"Height is 170 centimeters."
Jiang Yuan said something at this time, which was shocking.
Wang Lan couldn't help but ask: "How to judge."
The most common thing used to judge age is the long bones of the limbs, but because the space in the pressure cooker is limited, the long bones have not been cooked yet.
Jiang Yuandao: "I used the lumbar spine to judge first, and I can verify it later."
"Then write it down first." Wang Lan was dubious.
Although it is said that using one bone to judge everything is the goal pursued by forensic anthropology, the difficulty is also very high. Wang Lan's research in this area is not deep.
The few young forensic doctors next to him suddenly became well-behaved.
Everyone knows something about the limits of forensic anthropology, but when can such things as limits be used in work?
