Chapter 62: As Thin As Paper!
....Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Wait a moment. I’ll be right there.”
Another two hours passed. A forensic team was transferred to the branch office closest to Burning Mountain.
The leader of the forensic team was called Qin Ming. He was a young man in his thirties. He studied under a famous master and was the chief forensic doctor of Hibiscus City.
The few forensic doctors behind him were either employees of the department or his disciples.
After Qin Ming arrived, he greeted Captain Chen and the others briefly before personally bringing people to dig up the corpses.
In order not to destroy the various clues on the corpse, the excavation process was more complicated. It took a full half an hour to complete.
When all the corpses were excavated, the appearance could already be seen clearly.
As there was no autopsy, it was impossible to determine his age by bone age. However, they could roughly tell that he was a man of about 35 years old. He was less than 1.65 meters tall and weighed about 60 kilograms.
After a simple autopsy, the chief forensic doctor, Qin Ming, slowly said, “Captain Chen, this corpse has been dead for more than 30 hours. Moreover, it has the characteristics of being soaked in rain when it was alive.”
Oh!
Captain Chen calculated in his heart and said, “So, this person died the day before yesterday on a rainy night?”
“That’s right.”
“What about the cause of death? Is it confirmed?”
Qin Ming stood up and replied, “After a simple preliminary check, we can basically confirm that the fatal wound is on the neck.”
Hearing this, Captain Chen and the others were surprised. Zhou Xiaoxiao asked, “Dr. Qin, are there no other wounds?”
Qin Ming used a tool to pick up the victim’s clothes and replied, “There are holes in the clothes. It’s suspected to have been cut by a sharp blade, but it hasn’t injured the body. At the moment, there are no other wounds on the surface of the corpse.
Oh, that’s not right.
There’s a wound on the back of the corpse’s hand that seems to have been cut by a sharp blade.”
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked down. Captain Chen also observed for a while and asked,
“Is there any explanation for the fatal wound on the neck?”
Qin Ming shook his head. “The cause of death is basically confirmed. He choked to death, which is a cut throat. As for the other details, I haven’t seen them yet.
I still need to check carefully later.”
“This is very likely the suspect, but why would they kill each other?” Captain Chen was puzzled and voiced his doubts.
“I can’t confirm if this corpse is a criminal who robbed tombs, but the time and cause of his death are definitely not wrong.”
Captain Chen fell into deep thought when he heard the forensic doctor’s words. Then, he called Professor Xie.
Professor Xie had fought with all kinds of tomb robbers for half his life and was especially sensitive to their identities. He could tell at a glance if they were tomb robbers.
Not long after, Professor Xie brought his two assistants to the corpse.
“Professor, it’s most likely a grave robber. Look at his temperament.”
The assistant muttered at the side. Professor Xie didn’t say anything, but he actually felt that something was wrong the moment he saw the corpse, so he checked the corpse’s palm again.
Finally, he said slowly, “Captain Chen, this person is definitely a grave robber. Although his corpse is a little bloated, his palm is rough. The calluses in certain places are very thick. Only people who use the Luoyang shovel all year round will be like this. Moreover, the soil under his nails is not the surface soil, but the compacted soil deep underground.”
“This person is definitely a tomb raider. From his figure, he should be a rat who specializes in burrowing!”
Seeing that Professor Xie was so certain, Captain Chen could not help but be very puzzled.
Because if this was a tomb raider, then this matter was not an open tomb raiding case.
Now that someone had died, the situation had escalated.
At the side, Zhou Xiaoxiao saw that Captain Chen’s expression was very serious, so she leaned closer and said, “Captain Chen, could this be related to the mercenaries that Commander Xu and the others mentioned ”
Captain Chen looked at Zhou Xiaoxiao meaningfully and nodded unconsciously.
One of the grave robbers had died, and according to the previous intelligence, the grave robbers and the mercenaries had mixed together.
Then, was there something going on with this dead tomb robber?
Therefore, Captain Chen did not delay and quickly called the bureau chief, Zhang Zhenghuai, to report the sudden situation.
Zhang Zhenghuai was shocked when he heard that. “What? Someone died among the tomb robbers? Seal the scene immediately. The situation has escalated. I’ll inform Commander Xu Kui and get his men to take a look.”
“Roger that!”
After Captain Chen hung up the phone, his expression was ugly and he did not say a word.
Everyone could tell the seriousness of the situation. They did not dare to say anything and lowered their heads to think about the case.
“That’s not right!”
Coincidentally, at this moment, someone exclaimed in the busy forensic team, immediately attracting everyone’s attention. “What happened?”
Captain Chen and Zhou Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked.
“Let me see.”
Qin Ming also put down his work and turned to his little disciple who cried out in surprise.
Without needing his little disciple to introduce him, Qin Ming only followed the other party’s finger and discovered something strange. He immediately frowned and examined it carefully.
The others did not dare to disturb him, so they watched anxiously.
After a moment, Qin Ming said without looking up, “Captain Chen, there’s indeed a new discovery!”
“What’s wrong, Old Qin? What did you find?”
Qin Ming flipped the corpse over and made him face the sky. Then, he pointed at the wound on his neck and said in a puzzled tone, “Captain Chen, what can you tell from the shape of the wound?”
Captain Chen thought to himself, The fire is already burning my ass, but you’re still keeping me in suspense!
However, he naturally did not dare to say this. Otherwise, offending the chief forensic doctor of Hibiscus City would not be good for his future work.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was smart enough to see through Captain Chen’s thoughts. She coughed and said, “Dr. Qin, forgive my poor eyesight, but I didn’t see anything.”
Qin Ming glanced at the two of them and asked, “Can’t you tell that the shape of this wound is very strange?”
“Well
Qin Ming shook his head helplessly and said to Captain Chen, “Give me a hundred yuan.”
Captain Chen:
Why did the forensic doctor have to collect money to answer the questions on the spot?
Although he thought so, Captain Chen still took out a hundred yuan bill.
Qin Ming took it and placed the banknotes on the corpse’s neck, as if he wanted to insert the banknotes into the wound. He looked up and said solemnly, “The murder weapon is only this thick!”
Everyone was stunned and suddenly understood!
It turned out that Dr. Qin wanted to compare the banknote.
What Dr. Qin meant was…
The thickness of the murder weapon was actually the same as banknotes??
