The Underworld Detective

Chapter 100: The Great Unsolved Mystery

I broke the body's mouth, and according to the Prison Break, if it was burned, the mouth, nose and trachea would suck in a lot of dust, but the mouth of both victims was clean.

What the hell is going on?

There is also a suspicion, whether burned or burned after death, that corpses tend to appear in a fighting position because the proteins in the body are thermally coagulated: the small arms are raised and the fists are held tight, just like the boxer's defensive position.

But this feature doesn't exist on either body, which makes me wonder, are they really burnt to death?

I asked Zhou for a scalpel and cut a small piece of skin to examine it. The skin was found to be brittle and the blood in the blood vessels had been roasted dry, which was clearly a common characteristic of incineration and burning.

All I can say is, this body is full of contradictions from beginning to end!

The judgment of burning and burning of corpses is a major problem in forensic medicine. When Song's ancestors, Grand Song Ti Judge Song Chi, were alive, experiments were conducted with burning live pigs and dead pigs to observe the difference between the two.

But these two bodies, neither totally like burning, nor totally like burning bodies, made me wonder, while at the same time generating a slight excitement in my heart.

It's like someone who likes math encounters a problem, and I'm a little sick inside!

I smelled a little stinging on the deceased, but it wasn't like gasoline, kerosene, alcohol, which were common combustion aids. I wasn't sure what it was, so I gave Zhou that little piece of skin I had just cut and told him to take it back for two tests.

One is the composition of the combustion aid, and the other is the amount of carboxyhemoglobin in the blood.

Carboxyhemoglobin is a product of the combination of hemoglobin and oxygen in an extremely hypoxic environment, and in excess of a certain amount can be fatal, which is an important indicator of burning and incineration.

In fact, this can be judged solely by the naked eye, the body contains too much carboxyhemoglobin, and the corpse spots show a kind of red or cherry red, but neither body.

I let Zhou test it, but also for the sake of safety, after all, these two bodies are a little weird!

I also cut a small piece of clothing to show him if the clothing and the body surface had the same combustion aid.

Zhou put the sample in the plastic tube and said with a smile: "Song Dashen, have you forgotten something? ”

“What have I forgotten?” I wonder.

“DNA, something so important, don't test it.” Zhou Dao Xiao.

I laughed. Do I need you to remind me of these little things? I said, "We haven't identified the victim yet. There's no point in testing DNA. Save this kung fu and go to the dental hospital in Nanjiang City tomorrow. ”

As I broke the mouth of the older deceased, I asked Zhou to look at the two molars in the deceased's mouth, and he shone a flashlight: "A rich man, with golden teeth! ”

“What eye power, this is palladium roasted porcelain teeth.” I corrected.

Zhou took a closer look and suddenly realized: “Yes, I was wrong, it's not gold. ”

Palladium roasted porcelain teeth are a fairly high-end prosthetic teeth, even more valuable than gold teeth. I don't think there will be more than five hospitals in Nanjiang City that do this kind of teeth, so Zhou can make a tooth model by the way, so that the identity of the deceased can be determined.

As for the other person, let the detectives visit you slowly! Knowing the identity of one of them, you can sneak up on the identity of the other person and then use your DNA to finalize the identity.

Zhou stared at me. I asked him what happened. Did he fall in love with me at first sight?

Xiao Zhou said: "Song Yang, you work together with forensic doctors. I feel that if you go to the exam, you will definitely get a forensic certificate in minutes and kill a large group of senior forensic doctors. ”

I laughed, "What kind of credentials do I need? Is it different now? You better hurry. ”

“Is everything all right?” Zhou asked.

“No, I'll get the fingerprints and the hair. Leave me a UV light, and the tech team will go back.” I wave.

After the technical team left, Huang Xiaotao looked at me with a smile: “You look like you're giving orders, why don't you give them to me?" ”

“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.” I replied.

“Yo, you call me Heavenly, so I'm a fierce martial arts man in your mind?” Huang Xiaotao was angry.

“Martial arts is a great beauty!” I'll explain.

“Ha ha, I'll take your compliment.” Huang Xiaotao turned angry and smiled.

I put my ears on the corpse and started listening to bone defense, and I put a piece of paper on it for hygiene reasons. Generally, people burned to death have some changes in their guts, like congestion in their lungs, blisters, enlarged kidneys, etc.

But the two victims did not have that characteristic, and I judged the time of death from visceral changes to be about 10 days or so.

I asked Huang Xiaotao to hand me a pair of scissors, and when I cut the clothes off one of the victims, I discovered an astonishing thing, the underwear and burnt skin of the dead were completely adhered to, and it was difficult to uncover.

I have to conclude: "The victim was burned in his clothes! ”

Huang Xiaotao covered his mouth with surprise: “But their clothes are not damaged at all. Is this the legendary human body burning? ”

The spontaneous combustion of the human body is one of the ten unsolved mysteries of the world. Once an elderly man lay asleep in bed, his children smelled a burning smell of flesh and skin. At first glance, half the body of the elderly had been burned to ash, but the cotton was intact.

There have also been several reports of spontaneous combustion of the human body in foreign countries. The victim was shopping, suddenly on fire, the bear burned, the passers-by put out the fire with a water pipe, the victim did not move, and the autopsy revealed that all the inside of the body had been burned to dust.

Another woman, suddenly kneeling in prayer in the church, did not move, the surrounding people found nothing at first, later found her mouth and nose smoking, surprised to find that she had been burned, her guts all burned with coke, but her skin was intact.

When I think of this, I think of all the weirdness of the two bodies, and I sigh, “It's hard to say! ”

Huang Xiaotao laughed: “It was a surprise to see you getting stuck for the first time. ”

“It's not like I'm being scolded for not being able to solve a case.” I was sarcastic.

“By the way, where's your little follower?” Huang Xiaotao asked.

“I told him to go back to school to pick something up...” I explained.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, Wang Dali came up with a pack of things, rushed up, saw Huang Xiao Peach first a few words, then handed me the things.

I took out the hearing bones, listened carefully to the body again, nothing special.

After a while, I fixed the coroner's umbrella. I pushed it away and was going to check for trauma. I asked Wang Dali to palm the lamp for me.

The ultraviolet light passed through the red umbrella and a light red coat was plated on the body. I turned slowly, but I didn't find any trauma on the body after a spin. There are some fingerprints on the clothes, but it looks like they left them alone. I asked Huang Xiaotao to get a camera and film them all.

I put the coroner's umbrella away and complained, “When can I meet a killer with honest fingerprints? ”

Huang Xiao Peach said, “You must be bored again when you say that. ”

I laughed, "How do you know me so well? ”

“Cut, can't you eat out your little personality? ”

Wang Dali looked at us with shock and surprise. “Sure, you two don't split the scene now. As soon as you came up, you stuffed me with a sip of dog food. ”

Huang Xiao Xiao Xiao Apricot's eyes were wide open: “Bullshit, I'll cuff you, believe it or not! ”

“Sister Tao, forgive me!” Wang Dali hugged the mice.

Then we went to the other room and found some fingerprints and hair, one by one, near the two sleeping bags.

I turned the red umbrella and took pictures to the ground. The footprints on the ground were very messy. If I could still identify them, I would let Yellow Peach take them all and bring them back for comparison. Two pairs of footprints, which were supposed to have been left behind by the shoes worn by the deceased, could be concluded that the deceased seemed to have encountered something terrible at the time, so he fled from this room to another room in panic, and still failed to escape and was burned alive into coke.

That's when a sudden shout came from downstairs!
