National Forensic Doctor

on Monday.

heavy rain.

In order to go to work, Jiang Yuan specially drove his father's Land Cruiser and waded through the water all the way, which was very hard.

Entering the yard of the Criminal Police Brigade, I saw that most of the usually crowded parking spaces were empty. Not everyone would be embarrassed to borrow a car from their father.

I ran into the building despite the rain, and when I got to the office, I saw Wu Jun warming himself on an electric stove and drinking tea.

"You came so early." Jiang Yuan was a little surprised. He thought Wu Jun would be late.

Wu Jun said "yes" and asked, "Have you brought a raincoat?"

"No, I held an umbrella, it's only a short distance away..."

"Everything is unfavorable today. You have to prepare for an accident." Wu Jun interrupted Jiang Yuan, threw him a raincoat, and said, "Let it go, it's been the rainy season recently. If you don't do it right, there will be corpses."

"This..." Jiang Yuan was a little surprised: "Are you afraid that someone will slip and fall into the water?"

"Any situation can happen, and all people can happen. People can drown in culverts, people can drown in sewers, people can drown in flash floods, and sometimes people can drown when crossing the road." Wu Jun shook his head, and after a while Son, then said: "On rainy days, people are prone to depression. It's okay in our small place, like Changyang City, where people fall down all the time and don't know what they are thinking."

Jiang Yuan also sat by the electric stove to warm himself up, and began to mentally build himself up.

Outside the window, the patter of rain made the window rattle. Looking through the glass, the visibility is less than 20 meters.

It rained heavily all morning.

By noon, the rain had subsided a little, and no one wanted to go out.

Jiang Yuan simply closed the door, made fried rice and instant noodles on the electric stove, and then ate the fried rice and instant noodles together with Wu Jun.

After eating only half of it, the landline in the office rang.

"The corpses were washed down in Taihe." Wu Jun stood up, with no apparent expression.

"Really here?" Jiang Yuan was still a little surprised.

"It will happen sooner or later, and every summer is no exception." Wu Jun sighed, put on his raincoat directly in the office, and muttered a little naggingly: "If nothing happens in Ningtai County, there will always be bad luck in the cities upstream. . Everyone knows that when it rains heavily, everyone feels that it is not them who die."

Jiang Yuan quickly took a few mouthfuls of fried rice and drank two more mouthfuls of soup. It screamed when it was hot. He put down the bowl and chopsticks reluctantly and started to put on his raincoat.

Having to get rid of the body immediately is the most difficult part of forensic medicine, and it is more annoying than any unpleasant smell. Especially the older forensic doctors, they hate this and are helpless.

The raincoat Jiang Yuan got was a little too small and was awkward to put on. Fortunately, the effect was pretty good, at least it kept the clothes inside dry.

By the Taihe River.

Underneath the highway bridge.

There is a sharp bend here, and at the same time the river widens and the flow becomes slower.

The highway bridge was built here, covering a large area of ​​flat land. It’s windy but not rainy, so it’s a treasure trove between storms.

"The body is still soaking in the river, and we can't get it up for fear of being decoupled." There were only two policemen from the police station present, and they pointed to the river.

Wu Jun hurried over to take a look and saw a pale corpse half wrapped in unknown water plants. The lower body was half submerged in the water and hung in a cove by the river.

The river flow in the concave bay is slow, and there are reeds and other aquatic plants blocking it, so the stop is quite stable. The main reason why the body stayed here was because there was a fishing line hanging on it.

The other end of the fishing line leads to a fishing rod, which is now locked to the ground.

"Two fishermen found it. They called the police immediately." The policeman from the police station pointed to the SUV not far away, and saw two men holding their chests and hiding behind the car with unlucky expressions. Seeing the police waving, I reluctantly ran over.

"It's raining so hard, why are you out fishing?" Wu Jun looked at the two of them looking cold and stunned, and couldn't help but ask.

The man who ran over first wiped his face and said, "I agreed with my wife last month on my fishing time. Not to mention the wind and rain, I have to use a knife to do it."

"Can I catch fish?" Wu Jun asked.

"Occasionally."

"You have to catch it even if you can't catch it."

The two people's answers were quite firm.

Wu Jun sighed, took another look at the body in the river, and asked, "How was the body found? Was it fished out or something like that?"

"Things that floated down from the river got directly tangled in my fishing line." The fishing man who spoke was slightly fat and did not dare to glance at the corpse.

"You didn't see such a big corpse floating down in advance?" Wu Jun asked again.

"With such heavy rain and wind, I can't even keep an eye on the fish bobber, so I don't have time to look at anything else." The fishing man said confidently.

Wu Jun actually felt that what he said was very reasonable.

Such a heavy rain and such a strong wind would be in vain if you don’t keep an eye on the fish float.

"Fetch the hook with me and fish out the body first." Wu Jun called to Jiang Yuan, took out a telescopic rod from the trunk, fastened the screws, and then installed a large iron hook on the front, carrying them one after the other. , slowly hanging the body from the shore.

Wu Jun was in front. Seeing that the iron hook was firmly attached, he gently pulled it and shouted: "One, two, three..."

Jiang Yuan was pushing hard from behind, and Wu Jun was pushing hard from the front. They both pushed hard together, and after pulling hard, the body was halfway up.

There is only half a body!

Only half of the corpse's pants were left, and the gray-white calves and feet were wrinkled, showing they had been soaked in water for a long time.

As for the upper half, due to the disconnection, the remaining abdominal cavity has long been scrubbed clean.

A gust of wind blew, and the smell of corpses rushed directly into the nostrils of Jiang Yuan and others.

The eyes of the two fishermen stared as if they had caught a fish. After several seconds, they ran away with a "vomit" sound.

"I don't want the fishing rod anymore!" The fisherman pouted reluctantly.

The companion also frowned and confirmed: "Really don't want it anymore? Didn't you just say..."

"I didn't know it was half a corpse." The fisherman almost shouted.

The two policemen from the police station also fled away.

Jiang Yuan and Wu Jun had nowhere to go. They wore masks and gloves and silently moved the body to the shore, where there was a freshly prepared plastic sheet.

Wu Jun stepped forward and removed the iron hook from the body, and then straightened the body.

Jiang Yuan and Wu Jun immediately looked at the upper part of the body, where the body was broken.

The incisal edge is not very neat, but there are also some flat cutting marks.

Wu Jun and Jiang Yuan looked at each other, and their expressions suddenly became serious.

If there are cut marks, it could be a homicide.

"I'll notify Team Huang." Wu Jun took off his gloves, stood upwind, and then took out his mobile phone to make a call.

Jiang Yuan changed his gloves and began to take pictures of the body and the surrounding environment.

There is a big difference between an ordinary abnormal death and a murder case, and now it is a windy and rainy state. Even though the river bank is still one or two meters away from the water, who knows when it will be submerged.

Soon, Wu Jun finished the phone call, came over wearing gloves again, and said: "Team Huang and the others are setting off. It's been a tough few days."
