The Tang Dynasty’s Female Forensic Doctor - Chapter 110

[Chapter 112 Powder in the Stomach]

,,,,,,,,,,,

The last corpse has many differences from the first two.

First, the first two corpses died on Banpo with multiple serious injuries on their bodies and heads. The cause of death is still uncertain.

Then a corpse died in a ruined temple, with bruises concentrated on the back. The cause of death may have been unknown substances in the stomach, or it may have died from excessive blood loss.

Second, the hosta flowers have always been placed in the ruined temple. When the first two corpses were found, the hosta bouquet was packed in a cloth bag used by monks, with two bundles of hair under it, while the latter corpse was holding the hosta in its arms. Flowers and hair are also in his arms.

First, the blood of the first two corpses was still there, while the last corpse had been drained of blood, and his clothes were neat and tidy, and although he took incense ash, there was no residue on his tongue and teeth. Obviously, he had been carefully cleaned.

Ran Yan has encountered a lot of serial murders and murderous cases in the past. For example, some perpetrators like women with certain fixed characteristics, or put the corpse in a certain shape, hurt a certain part, and so on.

This time, I am a little confused. In ordinary serial murder cases, the murderer has some kind of obsession, and he will definitely stick to this obsession to the end, and it will not be easily changed.

If it is said that the murderer has suffered emotional trauma, it is very likely that he will kill some features similar to those of the man who hurt him. According to this inference, then there is no reason for the murderer to give them different “treatment”?

Could it be the first man who looks particularly good?

Or most like his lover?

Furthermore, where did the blood that was drawn go?

A normal adult who weighs 60 kilograms has about 4.8 kilograms of blood in his body. A normal-sized bucket can hold two buckets. At least one-quarter of the blood from the deceased is drawn, that is, about half a kilogram. What is the use of such a large amount of blood?

Ran Yan told people about the situation, and then entered the meditation room again to start the autopsy of the other two corpses.

The two corpses are already high blood, the giant view gradually eased, the head and neck began to rot, the subcutaneous and muscle tissue liquefied, the one a month ago, the internal organs have begun to collapse, and some places have already exposed the bones.

Ran Yan has seen this kind of situation a lot, but she still couldn’t help sighing: “A month ago, that was a handsome young man!”

Ran Yan didn’t see the wonderful and varied expressions of the man behind him, so he squatted down and started to use the knife.

This time, it seemed to be more leisurely. While cutting open the chest and abdomen neatly, he asked, “Jingsi Yu, did you find the first corpse different from these two? Does it look more handsome?”

Yu Bohao I was stunned for a while, then recalled it carefully, and nodded affirmatively: “Jun,

it looks much better than the first two.”

Ran Yan just half-jokingly asked casually, but she didn’t expect it to be true, “I don’t know about these dead people. Has

your identity been found out?”

Yu Bohao replied, “After the notice was posted, a few families came to identify it, and the first body was claimed, and the provincial governor also sent people to investigate the missing persons in the city. , but the number of people who go missing every year in Suzhou City, such as refugees, escape from marriage, elopement, etc., is not more than a thousand or so, and the identities of the other two bodies are still being investigated one by one.”

“Escape from marriage?” Ran Yan’s hand stopped, “I A few

months ago, I heard from the maid that the most lively discussions in the city recently were a few elopements.”

Liu Rang pondered for a while and replied, “Yes, one of them still has a marriage contract with the second daughter of the Su family, the king of medicine, because of this, the Su family I have also searched for this official in private, do you think these corpses may all be people who eloped?”

Ran Yan noticed that he said “all”, and guessed that the person who was recognized had already eloped with someone. , so he stopped asking questions, took out the internal organs one by one, and placed them on the plain cloth.

Yu Bohao admired in his heart, these internal organs, especially the intestines and stomach, were already rotten, yet she was able to peel them off so completely!

In addition to the normal decay of various organs, it is difficult to find any abnormality.

“I’m afraid I’m going to dissect the brain…” Ran Yan muttered to herself, put down the heart in her hand, and took out a hammer, a giant nail the size of a thumb, and a sharp blade from the toolbox.

Xiao Song stared at Ran Yan, her dazzling eyes shone brightly, her lips hidden behind the mask lifted up unconsciously, she brought him a lot of freshness, and her serious appearance also attracted him tightly. His eyes, he had never seen this type of woman, serious and serious, as if fearless, and the ease with which she faced the corpse was really heartbreaking.

Ran Yan paid all her attention to the head of the deceased, and did not notice Xiao Song’s gaze. When she picked up the blade and was about to shave off the corpse’s hair, she suddenly paused. After placing the blade, she moved to the belly of the corpse. At the mouth, squat there and observe carefully.

Ran Yan did not give up and looked carefully over and over again, as if she wanted to smash the chest and abdomen of the corpse.

“Haha!” Ran Yan looked over and over for a while, and suddenly laughed.

Yu Bohao and Liu Rang only felt their scalps go numb. Thinking of a mother laughing at a rotting corpse that had been dissected into pieces, what a strange scene it was, they made them mistakenly think that Ran Yan was being overtaken by a ghost.

Ran Yan found that hemorrhage and congestion could be vaguely discerned on the internal organs of the corpse, so she temporarily gave up the brain autopsy of the corpse, and directly began to dissect the most rotten one.

For this dead body, without the help of scientific instruments, if the body has no obvious symptoms of the cause of death, Ran Yan really can’t guarantee that he will find anything.

After opening her chest and abdomen, Ran Yan couldn’t help laughing again, it seemed that the deceased also wanted to avenge her grievance!

The outside of the corpse was seriously rotten, and the internal organs began to shrink and collapse, but basically all of them still existed, and they had everything they should have.

Although it is not as good as a fresh corpse, it is better than nothing!

Ran Yan immediately began to check carefully. The stomach and intestines had been rotten and liquefied. She peeled off the internal organs one by one and checked them carefully under bright lights. No matter how much light was on at night, it was no better than the daytime, not to mention the need to observe this kind of high * *’s body, fortunately, it is not that she has not encountered such a situation, and it is not that she can’t see anything.

“Because the corpses are very old, I can only judge that the cause of their death may be poisoning based on some conditions.” There are no good testing conditions now, and once the best time for autopsy is missed, some things can’t be seen just by looking at them, Ran Yan He couldn’t help complaining about Liu Rang in his heart. If he had done the autopsy earlier, he would definitely be able to determine what kind of poison was in it, but now he can only guess, “The various internal organs of the corpse are bleeding in different ways, so it can basically be judged that it is poisoning, but what is the specific cause? I’m not sure about the poison.”

“Can you list some poisons?” Xiao Song asked.

Ran Yan sorted out the corpse and replied casually: “Aconitum, Ma Sang, Hook Kiss, Poppy, Horse Money, Tripterygium, Snake Venom, Mylabris, etc.”

After finishing the sorting, Ran Yan thought about it and continued: ” I have handled the first corpse, and there are no obvious symptoms such as bruising nails, black lips, cyanosis, etc., so we can rule out the horsesang, horse money, snake venom, and poppy. It will take two to two hours for the poison to erupt, and the hook kiss will be faster. These poisons will not cause obvious symptoms on the surface of the corpse. Personally, I am more inclined to suspect the hook kiss.”

Aconitum poisoning and death, generally can only be detected similar to suffocation The cause of death, sometimes if you are lucky, you can find medicinal residues in the stomach, and there may also be bleeding spots in the gastric mucosa and serosa. In addition, if you do not borrow modern experimental techniques, you can’t find any evidence at all.

Now the two corpses have been decomposed to such a degree, and the internal organs can also be faintly found with congestion and bleeding, which is obviously not aconite.

The effect of Tripterygium wilfordii is generally slow. If the murderer wants to kill with Tripterygium wilfordii, at least there has been contact with the victim two days before the death of the victim. Although it is not impossible, it is worse than a quick and convenient hooking.

“This is just my example, and it is very likely to be other poisons. The internal organs have been decomposed to such a degree that it is difficult to identify them in more detail.” Ran Yan said.

After cleaning up, several people walked out of the meditation room worriedly.

Now, only one of the deceased has been identified, and the others are still unknown. This alone has broken most of the lines. Every day, the yamen took the relics of the deceased door to door and asked. It will take five months to find out even in the city’s Fangshi.

Lanterns were lit on the porch, and a few people sat down in the courtyard. Xiao Song asked, “Who is this body that was claimed?”

Yu Bohao replied, “It’s a merchant in Bifengfang, listen to me.

It was said that she saw a pretty widow, and her family did not agree with the marriage, so she eloped with her. The family only had such a direct descendant, so as soon as they heard the appearance of the deceased, they hurried over to identify them. Clothes, I recognized that the deceased was the direct descendant of their family, surnamed Chen Mingyuan, styled Meng Xian.”

“Where’s the widow?” Xiao Song asked immediately.

“I don’t know the end so far.” Yu Bohao thought about it for a while, and felt that it was a big deal, but he still expressed his suspicions, “Could it be that this widow is different? Seduce the young man to have an affair in the suburbs, and then kill them. ?”

Liu Rang pondered for a moment and said, “The second wife of Su’s family is also in Bifengfang, and they are from a scholarly family. These people are serious, and they may not admit the elopement even if they have doubts in their hearts. In the evening, I personally took the relics of the deceased to make them identify.”

Although the Medicine King Su family has a big family, they have always been very low-key.

Liu Rang has always been used to being tactful. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com is sometimes a bit too sophisticated in doing things. Su and Chen are both respectable people. Since the notices have been posted and people have not come to identify them, Liu Rang will not. It’s good to take the relics to other people’s homes to add bad luck.

Moreover, he did not take the initiative to ask, and it was not all out of the world, but just waiting for the wind from the court to blow.

Xiao Song is the gust of wind, and now the time is ripe, if he doesn’t move, he will be beaten, and he will not worry about anything anymore.

Xiao Song heard Liu Rang say this, his eyes flickered slightly, and then there was a relaxed look on his brows. He turned to Ran Yan and asked, “Can’t you tell what the black powder in the last corpse is?”

Ran Yan asked.

Did you not see that Liu Rang and Xiao Song, the two old officials in the officialdom, had reached some kind of tacit understanding, and only seriously thought about Xiao Song’s question, saying: “It’s like the remnants of something burned. , could it be incense ash?”

The rest of the people were stunned. These things had already changed in their stomachs, and the amount of information they had just received was a bit large. They didn’t have time to think about it.
