Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room

The news spread quickly, but only within the police. After the police stations and sub-bureaus in each jurisdiction learned that a dismemberment case might have occurred in Yangcheng, they were frightened and quickly mobilized manpower to conduct a blanket search.

The key areas are the trash cans and garbage stations on various streets, as well as the corner garbage piles that have been formed for a long time and have not been rectified.

In addition, there are also the barren mountains and ridges in the suburbs, moats, reservoirs, etc. Every place that can be checked has not been spared.

The police will not search aimlessly. If they encounter old people scavenging or city sanitation personnel during the process, they will stop and ask questions.

The entire police force in the city was in action.

At this time, Zhang Jingang hung up the call from Fang Songping and called Chen Yi to the office.

"Zhang Ju." Chen Yi opened the door and walked in.

Zhang Jingang looked serious, nodded and said: "Yes, sit down."

Looking at Chen Yi who was sitting down, he continued: "Fang Ting called me just now and asked about this matter. You were at his house at the time, right?"

Chen Yi: "Yes, after I received the call at Fang Ting's home, I rushed to the scene with Shuyu."

Zhang Jingang asked: "How is the situation?"

Chen Yi: "It is indeed a case of dismemberment, but currently it is limited to dismemberment. We need to find other body parts to determine whether there are traces of homicide."

Dismemberment does not mean murder. Although the possibility is very high, the police need evidence to investigate the case.

Therefore, it is particularly important to find all the body parts and conduct a complete autopsy.

Killing and dismembering a body are two different concepts. The former is a heinous crime, while the latter is just a crime of destroying corpses.

Zhang Jingang nodded slightly and said: "The choice of the person who dumped the body in the downtown area should have attracted a lot of people's attention, especially with such a large-scale police search in the city. It is easy for people to connect the two."

"I estimate that over time, it may attract the attention of reporters, so the investigation of this case is urgent. I won't put pressure on you, let alone a deadline, but you have to put pressure on yourself, do you understand what I mean?"

Murder and dismemberment is no small matter. If the case cannot be solved, in the future, the attention of Dongzhou and even the whole country will be focused on the Yangcheng City Bureau Criminal Investigation Detachment.

As the criminal investigation captain in charge of the case, Chen Yi was the first to bear the brunt.

No matter how many cases Chen Yi solved in the past, as long as this case becomes an unsolved case, the prestige and reputation accumulated over the past two years will be destroyed in an instant.

This is what is said, doing a hundred good things is worse than doing one bad thing.

Everyone will only care about your mistakes and hold on to them instead of talking about your past achievements. This is human nature.

Chen Yi nodded: "Understood, Director Zhang, I will do my best to detect the case."

"We will discuss the follow-up matters after the identity of the deceased is confirmed. I will come to you again then."

Now that the body parts have just been discovered, everything is still unknown.

Zhang Jingang: "Okay, I will follow up the entire investigation of this case and stay in the bureau. You can come to me at any time."

"If you have any difficulties, just ask."

Chen Yi: "Yes, Zhang Ju."

…

At night, news came from the branch that two more bags containing body parts were found!

The location is in the garbage station at the back door of a hotel in Yangcheng, placed together with a lot of food waste.

At this moment, the bag has been delivered to the city bureau and went directly to the forensic room.

Fang Shuyu's master also arrived. Today, he was leisurely sunbathing at home when he suddenly received a call from Fang Shuyu. After learning about the dismemberment case, he was shocked and rushed to the city bureau without hesitation.

Even in his career, such cruel treatment of corpses was quite rare.

"Director Shang, how many more are there?" Chen Yi asked in the forensic room, watching Shang Dezhong carefully take out the body parts from the bag.

Shang Dezhong is the name of Master Fang Shuyu. He is the former chief forensic examiner of the Yangcheng City Bureau. He has rich experience and a very high level. It was he who led Fang Shuyu out of the hospital.

Shang Dezhong did not speak immediately. After determining the location of the body parts, he placed the body parts on the dissecting table and then raised his hand to push the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his wrist.

"At least six or seven more."

There was a hint of hoarseness in Shang Dezhong's voice. He stood in the forensic room again in his sixties, with a convincing aura on his whole body.

This is the same as Chinese medicine. The older the Chinese medicine doctor, the more trustworthy he is.

In comparison, Fang Shuyu, who was assisting beside him, seemed like a novice now.

"What a crime." Shang Dezhong continued and sighed, "Judging from the changes in the shape of the pubic symphysis, he is very young."

Hearing this, Chen Yi's face changed slightly, and he quickly stepped forward and bent closer to carefully observe some of the lower limbs taken out of the new bag.

The lower end of the hip bone is the pubic bone, and the joint surface of the bilateral pubic bones is the pubic symphysis.

After a person enters puberty, the shape of the pubic symphysis will change, showing a strong regularity with age.

This is the most accurate way for forensic doctors to infer the age of the deceased.

After looking at it for a while, Chen Yi put on his gloves and opened the piece of meat, and his brows immediately wrinkled.

"I'm afraid he is no more than twenty-five years old."

"Huh?" Shang Dezhong looked at Chen Yi in surprise, "Vice Captain Chen, are you also accomplished in forensic medicine?"

It is not difficult to judge age from the pubic symphysis, but at least you have to understand forensic medicine and be very skilled. General case investigators rarely know this kind of thing.

After all, there is a forensic doctor. If the criminal police who handle the case understand, there will be no need for a forensic doctor.

There are specializations in the art industry, and people's energy is limited.

Chen Yi straightened up and said, "Understood, maybe a little bit."

Shang Dezhong praised: "It's amazing."

"Let me tell you, why did our Municipal Bureau's Criminal Investigation Detachment have such a young deputy detachment leader? He turned out to be a versatile genius."

"I heard Shuyu mention you, you are a terrible person."

Facing Shang Dezhong's praise, Chen Yi did not say anything modest. He just stood there frowning and staring at the incomplete corpse in front of him.

The dismemberment of the young woman's body was basically a murder, and the method was extremely cruel, which made him feel an unknown fire in his heart.

Hell is empty and the devil is in the world.

This piece of shit needs to be found out no matter what.

Shang Dezhong glanced at him and said nothing more. He knew what the other person was thinking at the moment.

As a criminal police officer, first of all, you must have justice in your heart, and you must also hate evil as much as possible. This is one of the sources of motivation for investigating crimes.

Only when you have motivation and pressure can you exert your 120% ability in investigating cases.

…

The search continued, and three days later, more bags containing body parts were found. They were scattered in every corner of Yangcheng city, and none was found in the suburbs or in the wild mountains.

The place where the body dumper throws the bag is very clear, that is, he chooses a downtown area.

I didn't think about throwing it far away or burying it in the ground. Instead, I threw it in the urban area where it could be easily found.

This result made Zhang Jingang extremely angry, and he could even feel the murderer's provocation to the police.

"Try your best to investigate for me! I want to find out which bastard did it! There are so many surveillance cameras in the city, I don't believe this grandson can avoid them all!"

Compared to Zhang Jingang's anger, Chen Yi was much calmer. At the same time, the case had already made significant progress even before a comprehensive autopsy was done!

He Xin and Jiang Xiaoxin found the suspected body dumper through surveillance!

In the case handling hall, Chen Yi stared at the surveillance screen.

It was a scene of a man passing by a garbage dump and throwing a black bag into it.

There was more than one surveillance picture. After calling other nearby surveillance cameras, Jiang Xiaoxin had captured the man from all angles, including... his face.

Chen Yi made a mistake in his judgment. This person didn't have any disguise at all. He was wearing short-sleeved pants and shorts, and he just dumped the body in the downtown area openly.

The most important thing is that it's still during the day, it's so crazy that people can't understand it.

Shi Xin said: "Although it's not very clear, the characteristics are very obvious. This guy is quite courageous."

Chen Yi stared at the surveillance camera for a long time and then said: "Male, about 50 years old, about 1.70 meters tall, a little weak."

"Continue to check the surveillance to see if we can find this person or get a clearer picture of his face."

When is new: "Okay."

Chen Yi turned around and shouted: "Lin Chen!"

Lin Chen, who was studying criminal investigation and forensic science, was shocked when he heard it, and he quickly got up and jogged all the way.

"Team Chen."

Chen Yi pointed to the surveillance screen and said, "Can you draw a picture?"

Lin Chen took a closer look and said, "It's not very clear, but you can try."

Chen Yi nodded: "Follow Captain He. If other surveillance cameras don't capture a clearer face, draw a portrait."

Lin Chen became excited when he heard that he could participate in the case investigation: "Yes! Team Chen!"

Chen Yi came to the forensic room.

The body has been pieced together, but it is still incomplete. The scene is extremely horrifying. The missing parts are the head and the fingers of the deceased.

Not a single finger of the deceased was found in any of the body bags.

The following points have been determined so far.

First, all the body parts came from the same person.

Second, the deceased was a woman.

Third, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five.

Fourth, he is 1.68 meters tall.

Fifth, there are no results in the DNA library.

Chen Yi: "Do you have any professional characteristics? Director Shang."

Shang Dezhong replied: "Nothing has been found yet."

Chen Yi was silent. Of the initial six steps of body dismemberment examination, only four steps had been completed.

Which six steps?

Determine whether the body parts come from the same person, the gender of the deceased, the age of the deceased, the height of the deceased, the occupation of the deceased, and the cause of death of the deceased.

Occupation and cause of death have not yet been determined.

At this moment, after carefully examining the neck of the deceased, Fang Shuyu suddenly said: "Master, come and take a look!"

Hearing this, Shang Dezhong quickly came over and inspected the area pointed by Fang Shuyu.

The color there is somewhat different from the surrounding skin.

Shang Dezhong's cloudy eyes fluctuated for a moment, and he continued to check the surrounding area along the different colored parts.

After a while, he said: "The marks left before dismembering the body should be pinch marks. We need to find the deceased's head and piece it together for further confirmation."

"Pinch mark?" Chen Yi also walked over, "Are you basically sure he killed you?"

As he spoke, he bent closer, and the pungent smell hit his face.

"It is indeed a pinch mark." He gave the same judgment.

The deceased was most likely strangled to death and then dismembered.

Chen Yi shifted his gaze and looked below the corpse.

Shang Dezhong said at this time: "Captain Chen, you should investigate other directions first. The most important thing is to find all the parts."

"The detailed autopsy report on the current body will be given to you this evening, including whether there are any signs of rape."

Chen Yi nodded, stopped disturbing, and left the forensic room.

As soon as he arrived at the case handling hall, he saw Qin Fei walking in quickly from the outside, followed by a middle-aged man and woman and colleagues from the branch.

This middle-aged man and woman should be husband and wife, with anxiety and a hint of fear on their faces.

After seeing Chen Yi, Qin Fei hurriedly stepped forward: "Team Chen, colleagues from the branch said that these two people went to the branch to report a crime today, saying that their daughters were missing and could not be found no matter how hard they searched."

Hearing this, Chen Yi's eyes narrowed slightly and he immediately said: "Bring him to the inquiry room."

Qin Fei: "Okay."

In the inquiry room, several people sat down. The middle-aged men and women were very nervous and restless, and kept looking at Chen Yi.

After pouring a glass of water for the two of them, Chen Yi said: "You two, what is your daughter's name?"

The middle-aged woman quickly said: "Wu Qianqian."

Chen Yi: "How high?"

The middle-aged woman thought for a while and said: "Probably... more than 1.65 meters, less than 1.7 meters."

Chen Yi: "What's your age?"

Middle-aged woman: "Nineteen years old."

Chen Yi: "Still in school?"

The middle-aged woman nodded: "Yes, I am still in school, at your Yangcheng University. I am a freshman and will be a sophomore in the second half of the year."

Chen Yi glanced at the two of them and continued to ask: "Aren't you locals?"

At this time, the middle-aged man said: "We are from out of town, and my daughter is attending college in Yangcheng. I couldn't contact her, so I hurried over to have a look."

Chen Yi rubbed his fingers out of habit and said, "What exactly happened? When did you lose contact?"

The middle-aged man said: "If you can't contact me in the past two days, I can't get through on the phone."

"These two days?"

Chen Yi was slightly stunned.

If the deceased was Wu Qianqian, there is no way she had lost contact with her in the past two days.

"Are you sure?" Chen Yi asked.

Middle-aged man: "Okay, very sure. During this period, we have been in contact with Qianqian on WeChat. Later, I felt that something was not right when she spoke. She was different from before, so I wanted to call and ask, but she didn't catch."

"After that, she stopped talking on WeChat, didn't answer her phone calls, and turned off her phone when she called again. We were worried about something happening to her and came to Yangcheng to look for her, but classmates and teachers at school said she had asked for leave a long time ago and didn't know where she was going. ”

Chen Yi was slightly silent and said, "Did you make a video call when you contacted me on WeChat?"

Middle-aged man: "No."

Chen Yi: "The school said when did Wu Qianqian ask for leave?"

Middle-aged man: "When school started during the holidays at the beginning of the month, her classmates asked for leave with her help."

Chen Yi probably understood the situation, but needed confirmation.

"I would like to ask, Wu Qianqian is her biological child, right?"

Middle-aged man: "Of course."

After receiving confirmation, Chen Yi turned around and said, "Call a forensic assistant over."

Qin Fei: "Okay."

Soon, the forensic assistant came to the interview room, extracted the man's oral mucosa on the spot, and left immediately.

This operation gave the middle-aged couple an unknown premonition.

DNA identification can be completed in as little as two hours.

After a long wait, the results came out. The forensic assistant knocked on the door and handed in the test report.

Chen Yi turned to the last page of the report and determined that the man was the biological father of the deceased.

He closed the report, looked up at the middle-aged couple in front of him who looked expectant and worried, and fell into a brief silence.

Five minutes later, heartbreaking cries came from the interrogation room, making the entire criminal investigation team sigh and feel indignant.

Determining the identity of the deceased is good news for the criminal investigation team, but it is an unacceptable bolt from the blue for the relatives of the deceased.

It's not that case, please don't take it personally!
