Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 467 Strange corpse!

2 p.m.

The body was sent to the Longchuan City Funeral Home, and two policemen were using a roller bed to transport the body to the autopsy room.

In the workroom next to the autopsy room, Jin Jiahui and her assistant are wearing disposable surgical gowns.

A policeman from the police station was standing by the door, holding a document in his hand. He said, "The body was found at 6 a.m., and the person who called the police was a citizen who was jogging by the river in the morning.

The deceased is a young female, and the cause of death is believed to be drowning.”

"Really?" Jin Jiahui was bending over to wash her hands. When she heard this, she glanced at him and said, "Anyone who falls into the water will drown, right?"

“No…” The police officer curled his lips: “This is completely consistent with drowning! There is mushroom-shaped foam between the mouth and nose of the corpse, which is similar to the common drowning conditions.”

Jin Jiahui stood up and asked, "Is there any background information about the deceased's identity?"

“I haven’t found this yet.”

"The family members didn't come to claim the body?"

"Yes."

"Then we can't jump to conclusions. Everything should be based on the autopsy data."

The police officer frowned and said, "Forensic Doctor Jin, I suggest that we don't do an autopsy until the deceased's family arrives. This isn't a homicide case, and it would be bad if we get into trouble."

Jin Jiahui crossed her arms over her chest and looked at him coldly: "I say you guys working in the police station really like to smooth things over. Are you so afraid of trouble?

If you really think he drowned, why did you bring the body to me? Just take it to the morgue."

"No, you don't check? We can't get the documents, and we don't dare to do it."

"It's good that you know it!" Jin Jiahui snorted coldly.

After saying that, she ignored the other person, raised her hands, and walked out of the cubicle.

As soon as she arrived at the door of the autopsy room, she saw a familiar person standing outside.

"Senior Sister, I knew I could find you here." Guo Lexuan walked forward and said with a smile, wanting to hug Jin Jiahui.

Jin Jiahui stepped aside and smiled: "Don't make me wash my hands again."

Guo Lexuan stuck out her tongue and pointed to the autopsy room: "What? Is there a corpse?"

Jin Jiahui nodded: "It has just been delivered. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Guo Lexuan's face darkened: "Drowned again?"

"That's right." Jin Jiahui pushed the glass door open with her arm and walked in, saying, "The masks and disposable gloves are on the table next to you, take them yourself."

"Okay." Guo Lexuan responded.

The fresh air system in the autopsy room was humming, and the temperature was even lower than in the corridor, so it felt a bit chilly.

Guo Lexuan nodded to the assistant: "Turn on the light."

The assistant walked to the dissecting table and turned on the shadowless lamp hanging above the table.

The lights flickered, and a female corpse was illuminated by the cold white light.

Her face was purple and black, with a lot of mud and sand between her mouth and nose, and her black hair was tangled like seaweed, with a lot of water plants hanging in her hair.

Because it was only recently salvaged, the hair was still wet and not dry yet.

"Very young!" Guo Lexuan put on her mask and looked at the body carefully: "It looks no more than 22 years old."

Jin Jiahui nodded. She had already entered the working state and stopped chatting.

She and her assistant worked together to take off the deceased's coat.

The outer coat was a thin white down jacket, the lining of which was soaked with water.

Because the corpse had already taken on the appearance of a giant and was beginning to swell, it was difficult to take off the clothes.

Guo Lexuan said, "Do you need help?"

Jin Jiahui shook her head: "No, please help me get the scissors. The clothes inside can't be taken off, so I have to cut them off."

The deceased was wearing a purple long-sleeved underwear. Jin Jiahui took a pair of scissors and started cutting from the left cuff, all the way to the neck, then from the neck to the other sleeve, and finally cut off the cloth on both waists.

In this way, the underwear can be removed by simply lifting the upper body of the body.

Next came the evil veil inside the female victim.

The color was flesh-colored. Jin Jiahui used scissors to cut off the strap on the victim's back and asked her assistant to lift the victim's upper body.

Guo Lexuan took advantage of the situation to take away the evil mask and looked at it in his hand.

After a moment, she said, "This girl's financial situation is not very good."

"What do you mean?" Jin Jiahui asked casually while cutting the deceased's skirt.

"This bra has turned yellow. A girl's underwear has been used to this extent and she hasn't changed it yet. She doesn't look like someone with good financial conditions."

After a while, all the clothes of the deceased were taken off.

Jin Jiahui's assistant picked up the camera and took dozens of photos from multiple angles.

Then, Jin Jiahui pried open the victim's mouth and shone a small flashlight inside. Then, she used a long-tube instrument to poke into the victim's mouth and nasal cavity and examined them carefully.

"There is drowning fluid and mud deep in the trachea, and the lungs are enlarged, all of which are consistent with drowning." Jin Jiahui clapped her hands.

The policeman standing by the glass door had been silent before, but when he heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I'll tell you!"

“But…” Jin Jiahui sneered and raised the dead man’s left hand: “Come and see this?”

The police officer waved his hands quickly: "Forensic Doctor Jin, just tell me what you have to say."

"There are no signs of struggle on the deceased's hands!"

"What does it mean?"

“That is to say, if a normal person falls into water without any special grip, would they struggle and tumble?
But this corpse didn’t have this behavior when it was alive, and its palms were very clean, without even any dirt or sand! This is very strange.”

The police officer frowned: "What's so strange about this?"

Jin Jiahui rolled her eyes: "Where did this girl fall into the water? If she fell into the river from the shore, would she have struggled a few times and grabbed something before she died?
This is just like when an ordinary person faces a criminal, will she take a defensive stance, and some may even suffer defensive injuries!
I tell you the truth, the deceased did not do these things before he died!

It's exactly the same as the two bodies in May and November this year!"

"One more thing!" Jin Jiahui turned the dead man's head to one side and shone the flashlight into the dead man's left ear.

"The deceased's ear cavity is clean, exactly the same as the two bodies I checked before. This is the most suspicious thing!"

The police rolled his eyes and asked, "Doctor Jin, you don't think these three bodies were murdered, do you?"

Jin Jiahui narrowed her eyes and said, "Whether it was murder or not is not something that a mere forensic doctor like me can decide. Anyway, I wrote it clearly on the autopsy report. Whether it can attract the attention of you, or even the Criminal Police Brigade and the Municipal Bureau, is up to you to decide."

The policeman swallowed his saliva. He understood the meaning of the words: "Forensic Doctor Jin, please don't hurt me. I am just a small policeman."

Jin Jiahui ignored him and instructed her assistant, "Extract the trace elements between the mouth and nose."

"it is good."

Guo Leyun also came to help, and the three of them were busy until the afternoon.

Jin Jiahui changed into casual clothes and drove her back to the downstairs of her office.

After being hungry for a day, the two walked into a Sichuan restaurant and ordered three or four dishes. Then Jin Jiahui asked, "Le Xuan, have you told Mr. Luo what I told you?"

Guo Leyun sighed: "I said it, but they ignored me."

"How could it be?" Jin Jiahui asked in confusion, "Boss Luo is famous for solving big cases and fighting big battles. Three bodies that don't match the drowning condition have appeared in our Longchuan City. This could be a serial murder case!"

"How do you prove it?" Guo Leyun spread her hands. "You, the Longchuan Municipal Bureau, don't take it seriously. What is the reason for Mr. Luo to come here?"

Jin Jiahui bit her lip and said, "It's really hard to prove. Just based on these doubts, I can't ask the Municipal Bureau to investigate."

Guo Leyun leaned forward and whispered, "Senior Sister, I think you should take the three autopsy reports and go directly to the Municipal Bureau to find your detachment leader and see what he says."

"How can Li Pinghai care about me? With his bad temper, it would be strange if he didn't chase me away!"

"Then go find the director!" Guo Lexuan suggested, "Otherwise, even if Mr. Luo can come, the Municipal Bureau will know that you called him. How can you work in the unit in the future? You must make your attitude clear to those people in the Municipal Bureau and don't act like a villain."

Jin Jiahui narrowed her eyes: "Let me think about it..."

"What else are you thinking about?" Guo Lexuan encouraged her, "Sister, don't be afraid. These leaders are just empty shells. If you don't scold them, they will be complacent all day long. You have to scold them to wake up these people who never leave their offices.

Besides, if you don’t tell them, these leaders won’t know the seriousness of the matter. If they are kept in the dark and investigate later, they will blame you for not telling them in advance.”

Jin Jiahui rolled her eyes and said, "When have you ever seen me being scared? If I were scared, I would have been transferred to work in the provincial department long ago.

I mean, I want to verify a hypothesis of mine."

"What guess?"

Jin Jiahui pursed her lips and said, "Those three bodies were not drowned in the Longchuan River at all."

Guo Lexuan asked: "How do I check this?"

"Check the water system and trace elements." Jin Jiahui blinked: "Are you free these two days?"

"Yes, I took a week off."

"Okay, you and I will go out to investigate tomorrow."

Guo Lexuan frowned: "Just the two of us girls?"

"Why not?"

Guo Lexuan rolled her eyes and said, "How about we find a helper?"

"Is it reliable?" Jin Jiahui took a sip of tea and said, "Don't just look for someone randomly. This is not something that ordinary people can get involved in."

Guo Lexuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm absolutely reliable."

"Okay." Jin Jiahui stepped aside and asked the waiter to serve the food: "I've been hungry for most of the day, let's eat."

----------

That afternoon.

Yuncheng, Provincial Department.

Fang Yonghui knocked on the door of the deputy captain's office.

"Come in."

Hearing the voice coming from inside, Fang Yonghui pushed open the door and greeted with a smile: "Luo Da, are you busy?"

Luo Rui ignored him and was checking documents with a pen.

Fang Yonghui looked at Lin Chen who was sitting behind another table and said with a smile, "Hello, Secretary Lin."

Lin Chen rolled his eyes: "Get lost!"

Fang Yonghui laughed shamelessly: "Sorry, I called you the wrong name. I should call you Director Lin. Is that ok?"

"You came here without saying hello? You want to eat and drink for free after get off work?"

Lin Chen had been dealing with documents for the entire day and was feeling a headache when he saw Fang Yonghui come in. Although he didn't give him a good look, he was quite happy in his heart. Who wouldn't want to take the opportunity to slack off?

Fang Yonghui ignored him and walked to Luo Rui's desk, supporting himself with his hands on the edge of the desk and taking long steps.

As soon as Lin Chen saw his state, he knew that this kid must be hiding something unspeakable in his heart.

She said directly: "Boss Luo, look at his appearance, he must want to borrow money from you!"

Luo Rui flipped through the documents without even raising his eyelids: "How much do you want to borrow?" Lin Chen said: "One million."

Fang Yonghui turned his head and glared at her: "Get lost, who wants to borrow money? I still have tens of thousands of bonuses, and they haven't been paid yet."

Lin Chen propped his chin up with his palm and chuckled, "So what do you do? Are you in the same office with Sister Qiao and Yonghui, and you can't stand their flirting, so you want Mr. Luo to give you a new office?"

"Go, go, it's none of your business." Fang Yonghui said impatiently.

He turned his head and looked at Luo Rui: "Mr. Luo..."

His address of "Mr. Luo" made Luo Rui immediately look up and start paying attention to his expression: "What's the matter?"

"Aren't there any cases during this period? I want to take a leave."

Luo Rui lowered his head again: "I thought you were a big deal, I approved it."

Fang Yonghui said shyly, "It may take several days."

"Approval." Luo Rui didn't care at all, and then added: "If you go back to Haidong Province, please bring me some local specialties."

"No, not going home."

Lin Chen had already walked around her desk and asked in confusion, "So what are you going to do? Have you found a lover in Yuncheng?"

Fang Yonghui glared at her: "Why do you mind me? I have some personal matters to deal with. Is that not okay? Do I have to report to you, Director Lin?"

"Go, go." Luo Rui urged. He had a pile of case documents on his desk and was feeling depressed.

He glanced at Lin Chen and said, "What are you doing? Are you being lazy? If you don't hurry up, we'll have to work overtime again tonight!"

Lin Chen said angrily: "Well, it's better to go out and handle cases. I'm tired of dealing with case files every day. I also want to ask for leave."

"No way." Luo Rui directly denied it.

Fang Yonghui gave her a pitiful look with a gloating look and left the office in a cool manner.

Luo Rui yelled at his back: "Close the door, don't you know the rules?"

Fang Yonghui quickly closed the door with a smile on his face.

He walked back to his desk with a leisurely pace, swinging his arms.

At this time, Chu Yang and Qiao Xue, who were sitting on both sides of him, slid their office chairs under their buttocks at the same time and moved closer to him from the left and right.

Qiao Xue asked, "Did Mr. Luo approve it?"

Fang Yonghui raised his head and said, "Who am I? Luo Da will definitely approve of me."

"Come on." Qiao Xue sneered, "I saw you looked terrified when you went to see Mr. Luo just now."

Fang Yonghui shrugged: "This is the minimum respect for the leader."

Chu Yang said: "I'm really envious, but, Yonghui, why did you ask for leave?"

"It's a secret." Fang Yonghui pretended to be mysterious, and then joked: "By the way, since you don't have much to do now, you can also ask for leave."

Chu Yang said frustratedly: "Can the team leader approve it?"

Qiao Xue sighed: "I've been out for half a year, and I haven't been home once."

Fang Yonghui patted his knees and said, "I'll give you an idea. Mr. Luo will definitely approve your leave."

"What's the idea?" Chu Yang's eyes sparkled.

Fang Yonghui tried to stay as far away from Qiao Xue as possible and replied, "Just say that you want to take Sister Qiao home to see your parents. If you say so, Luo Da will definitely approve your leave."

Chu Yang's eyes lit up, Qiao Xue blushed, and she kicked Fang Yonghui's office chair.

"roll!"

Fang Yonghui and Chu Yang were dragged by two office chairs and slid to the potted plants next to them.

----------

The next day.

Longchuan City, downstairs of the Municipal Bureau.

Jin Jiahui went downstairs carrying her equipment and wearing a windbreaker.

She did not go to the parking lot, but walked directly out of the city bureau gate and came to the roadside on the left.

A red Buick was already waiting.

Guo Lexuan brought a man out of the car and introduced him to her: "Senior sister, let me introduce him to you. His name is Fang Yonghui, and he is a criminal police officer under Mr. Luo."

"From the provincial department?" Jin Jiahui's eyes widened: "Mr. Luo's men?"

Hearing her tone, Fang Yonghui was very pleased and extended his hand: "Hello, Forensic Doctor Jin."

"Hello." Jin Jiahui shook hands with him, but her eyes were always on Guo Lexuan.

The look in his eyes said it all: Your boyfriend? How did you hook up with him?

Guo Lexuan gave a speechless look.

Fang Yonghui was very positive: "Forensic Doctor Jin, give me the backpack. I'll put it in the trunk."

"No, I'll do it myself."

Fang Yonghui helped her open the trunk and stuffed the heavy backpack in.

The three of them were about to get in the car, and Fang Yonghui said attentively, "Give me the car keys, I'll drive."

Guo Lexuan nodded, and she and Jin Jiahui sat in the back seat.

Seeing this, Fang Yonghui was very hurt and felt very disappointed.

As he started the car, he secretly complained: What the hell am I doing? What is the phrase that Luo Da often says, being a bootlicker?

A pug really appeared in Fang Yonghui's mind, barking with a fawning look on its face.

No, I can't lose face. If I can't learn from Luo Da, I'll have to learn from Chu Yang. I have to be reserved and pretend to be noble.

As the car started moving, Fang Yonghui asked, "Where are we going first?"

Jin Jiahui leaned forward and asked, "Are you familiar with Longchuan City? How about I drive it?"

Fang Yonghui glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "You tell me the place."

"There is a bridge in the third section of the upper reaches of the Longchuan River. Let's start from there."

Fang Yonghui nodded: "What are you doing there? And you are carrying so many bags."

Jin Jiahui looked at Guo Lexuan and asked, "You didn't tell him?"

Guo Lexuan spread her hands and said, "Did you tell me not to yell? I just told Officer Fang that I needed his help. I didn't say anything specific."

Jin Jiahui ignored her and said to Fang Yonghui: "Officer Fang, the situation is like this. We need to extract the water quality of Longchuan River."

"Ah?" Fang Yonghui blinked: "Isn't this the job of the Hydrological Bureau?"

Jin Jiahui shook her head and told him the whole thing in detail.

Fang Yonghui became more and more frightened as he listened: "You mean, these three bodies may have died unnatural deaths?"

Jin Jiahui gave a thumbs up and said, "He is indeed a capable person in the provincial department. Yes, I just suspect that these three people died unnatural deaths. That's the right word."

Fang Yonghui pondered: "If this is the case, then this is a serious matter. You have to tell the Municipal Bureau."

"The Municipal Bureau will only believe me if I have real evidence. If I go there rashly, they will ignore me."

Fang Yonghui nodded: "What you need to do now is to investigate the microorganisms in the mouths and lungs of the three deceased. If it is confirmed that they did not drown in the Longchuan River, the Municipal Bureau will file a case?"

"Yes." Jin Jiahui nodded: "This is the only solution I can think of."

Guo Lexuan interrupted and said, "Officer Fang, why don't you give your CEO Luo a call? He's at the provincial department anyway, so he has nothing to do. If you ask him to come, this matter will be easier to handle."

Fang Yonghui shrugged: "Boss Luo is busy. He is the deputy captain, and it's not an idle job."

Jin Jiahui: "We can only rely on ourselves. Officer Fang, thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay." Although Fang Yonghui said this, he was complaining in his heart.

He received a call from Guo Lexuan yesterday and thought he would have a romantic date in Longchuan City, but he didn't expect that he would be here to do hard labor.

After exchanging a few polite words with him, Jin Jiahui and Guo Lexuan unfolded the map of Longchuan River and marked the locations where water needed to be extracted.

If we had the exact location where the three bodies fell into the water, there would be no need to bother at all.

But the police station treated it as a normal death and did not investigate the matter at all.

This will not rise to the level of concern of the Criminal Police Brigade or Detachment.

Not only that, the police station didn't even look for any witnesses, it was so negligent.

They had no choice but to search section by section from the upper reaches of the Longchuan River.

This sounds simple, but it is very responsible to do.

After the samples are extracted, trace elements need to be identified, which costs money, and a lot of it.

It doesn't mean that you take your stuff to the Municipal Bureau's Physical Evidence Center and they will help you test it. Do you pay for it at public expense or at your own expense?

You also need proof if you pay for your own expenses, and you have to notify your superiors.

Fang Yonghui and two other people were busy on this matter for three whole days and were exhausted.

Jin Jiahui was familiar with the director of the Physical Evidence Center. Although she had the connections, she did not have that much money. So Fang Yonghui and Guo Lexuan paid out of their own pockets and raised the money before the Physical Evidence Center was willing to help.

A week later, they were waiting in the lobby of the Evidence Center.

Fang Yonghui said with a toothache: "Forensic Doctor Jin, we have been busy for a week. If we can really prove that these three people died unnatural deaths, you have to ask your city bureau to reimburse the expenses."

Guo Lexuan also said, "It's a must! I've lost most of my salary for half a year. I can't let these people from the Municipal Bureau get away with it. I have to pay for the investigation out of my own pocket. It's ridiculous just to think about it."

Jin Jiahui comforted them, "Don't worry, I will return the money to you two regardless of whether there is any progress or not. This is originally my business, and I dragged you to help me.

By the way, Officer Fang, you haven't been back to the provincial department this week. Didn't your General Manager Luo call you to ask about you?"

"Am I afraid he will ask?" Fang Yonghui puffed out his chest.

Guo Lexuan sneered: "Really?"

"Of course." Fang Yonghui said timidly, and he touched his nose.

To hide his embarrassment, he continued, "Forensic Doctor Jin, to be honest, your spirit is worthy of my admiration. If you really find out something, our Luo University will look at you differently. You remind me of someone."

"Who?"

"Director Zhao Ming, Mr. Luo's former partner and the most famous physical evidence director of the Haidong Provincial Department, you and his personality are very similar."

"I'm not that great." Jin Jiahui waved her hands.

"Really, your nose for criminal cases is no weaker than our Luo Da. He used to handle cases in the same way, and he would check for any clues. But now he is the deputy captain, and he rarely comes into contact with frontline criminal police homicide cases."

Guo Lexuan felt a little jealous after hearing this. This week, she clearly felt that Fang Yonghui and her senior sister were chatting very well and she seemed a little redundant.

She was just about to say something to show her presence when the director of the evidence center opened the door and walked in.

Seeing this, three people immediately stepped forward and stared at each other nervously.

The director pushed up the frame of his glasses, looked at the forensic report, and handed it to Jin Jiahui: "Xiaohui, the report shows that the microorganisms in the mouths and lungs of the three deceased are indeed from Longchuanjiang, there is no doubt about it."

Jin Jiahui held the report in her hand, frowned, and remained silent for a long time...
