Attending ex-girlfriend's wedding, arresting the groom's officer on the spot

Chapter 369 The Big Case

The floor is not high, only seven floors, but it is enough to kill you if you jump from the building.

"This school...hey, students are now under a lot of pressure to study. There was a student who jumped off the building the year before last, and another one this year..."

Jiuchang Street Vocational University is a well-known vocational and technical school in Haizhou City. It has many special majors, such as excavator, barber, and chef, which are all strong majors.

The policeman leading Liu Guodong and Lu Chuan was an old man from Jiuchang Street Police Station named Wang Miao, who also knew Liu Guodong.

The three of them climbed the seventh floor for more than ten minutes.

Mainly because Wang Miao climbed a bit slowly, Liu Guodong and Lu Chuan were not in a hurry and followed Wang Miao slowly.

"I'm so old that I can't even climb the stairs."

Wang Miao is actually not as old as Lao Bai, but it seems that his physical condition is not as optimistic as Lao Bai.

At the end of the stairs on the sixth floor, there is an iron ladder.

"You can go up to the top floor through this ladder."

"Has anyone here been here?"

"No."

Lu Chuan nodded, took out the fingerprint brush and fingerprint collection tools, and started swiping on the handrail of the iron ladder.

Although the deceased was basically a suicide, and surveillance could prove this, Lu Chuan decided to collect fingerprints just in case.

No one usually goes up to the roof of the building, so the recent fingerprints should only be those of the deceased.

Soon, Lu Chuan completed collecting fingerprints: "Master, let's go up."

Wang Miao did not climb up this time.

Going up to the roof, Lu Chuan and Liu Guodong put on shoe covers, and Lu Chuan even took out a portable spectrometer.

It's morning now, and the sun isn't particularly bright. When the spectrometer shines on the ground, three sets of footprints are clearly visible.

"Why are there three sets of footprints?"

The footprints extended straight from where the two climbed up towards the edge of the building.

"Master, let me record the footprints first."

Lu Chuan's expression was already serious.

If the deceased committed suicide by jumping off the building, there should be only one set of footprints upstairs.

But the current situation is that there are three strings of footprints, two of which are obviously left by the same person, with the same pattern of footprints, and the other string should be that of the deceased.

So, when the deceased died, were there other people present?
Liu Guodong walked around and reached the edge of the roof. Looking down from here, he saw the corpse downstairs.

"I'll report the situation to Team Qin first."

Now it seems that the possibility of suicide is somewhat high.

For the technical task of taking pictures of footprints, Lu Chuan used chalk to draw a trace line from the iron ladder to the edge of the roof.

"The footprints are not messy, there are no signs of running, and there are no signs of dragging."

Lu Chuan pointed to the footprints and communicated with Liu Guodong: "The deceased and the other person walked towards the edge of the roof together."

"The two know each other?"

"You should know him, and you should be very familiar with him."

"I just took a look at the body. The time of death was around three in the morning. At this time... the students had already gone to bed."

"Master, I'll go back and analyze the fingerprints first to see if I can find anything."

"Okay, here I will ask Team Qin to organize all teachers and students in the school to collect everyone's fingerprints and footprints."

Liu Guodong's view is very straightforward, and the case does not seem to be particularly complicated.

"He died at three o'clock in the morning. The person who was with the deceased at that time must also be someone from the school."

The area has been delineated, and there are fingerprints and footprints. It is not easy for the other party to hide his identity.

Speaking of which, Lu Chuan's work of wiping fingerprints on the iron ladder just now seemed very necessary.

Fortunately, the people from the police station here didn't go to the roof to investigate first.

As for the death characteristics of the corpse, death from a high fall is obvious.Lu Chuan just took a look and saw that he had fallen on his side and there was a large pool of blood. He must have suffered a severe head injury when he died.

There is no pain in this way of death. The person will lose consciousness the moment he lands. Even when he lands at a high altitude, he may lose consciousness due to fear and difficulty breathing.

Wang Changjiang has arrived at the scene and is doing a basic physical examination of the body.

When Lu Chuan came down from the roof, Wang Changjiang happened to report to Qin Yong again.

"The cause of death is consistent with the characteristics of falling from a high height, and there are no other signs of being violated, but..."

Wang Changjiang paused, and Qin Yong frowned. He knew that Wang Changjiang must have made an unusual discovery.

"What's wrong? Go on."

Wang Changjiang took a deep breath and continued: "There is an abnormal bulge in the deceased's abdomen. I suspect...well, probably. The deceased should be pregnant, but the specific pregnancy time is not sure. It should not be more than four months. It depends on the details. Autopsy results.”

Pregnant?
This time...

Combined with what Liu Guodong had just reported to him, Qin Yong knew that this case was... big.

"Block the news, and...Ren Qiang, Li Suo."

"Please ask people to maintain order. No one can get close. Inform the surrounding school windows that viewing is not allowed."

"Have the family members of the deceased... come?"

Just as he was talking, a middle-aged couple came in outside the school gate.

"My daughter!"

The woman suddenly broke through the cordon, threw herself on the body and cried loudly.

The man also knelt and sat in front of the corpse, his pale face was filled with tears and there was no trace of life in him.

The identity of the deceased had long been determined, and he was a student at Jiuchang Street Vocational University.

"How did my daughter die?"

Although the man was emotionally excited, he was the first to react.

The police officer at the police station explained: "The preliminary investigation is that he died from falling from the building."

"Why did she jump off the building!"

"How could she jump off the building!"

"Did someone hurt her?"

"What do you police do for food?"

The excited mother kept talking, but no one cared.

No one can bear the death of their daughter.

Lu Chuan came out of the building from a distance and watched this scene.

Hey.

But he could only sigh.

How to do?
What he can do is to find the truth behind the death of the deceased. If it was a homicide, then bring the murderer to justice.

Because of Lu Chuan's discovery and that of forensic doctor Wang Changjiang, the interest in the case has changed from committing suicide by jumping off a building to other directions.

"From early yesterday morning to now, everyone entering and exiting the campus must have their fingerprints and footprints collected."

Zhang Hui is organizing the school to collect fingerprints and footprints from all teachers and students.

Fortunately, the university is on summer vacation, and only intern students live in the school. There are not many teachers and students in the school. The criminal investigation detachment organized ten groups of people to collect information from teachers and students one by one.

In the current investigation laboratory, Lu Chuan is doing fingerprint identification analysis.

The cross-arm on the iron ladder is made of cylindrical steel. In addition, the force of climbing to serve food is very high, and the collected fingerprints are highly fragmented, making identification and analysis difficult.

There will definitely be no results for a while.

At the school, Ren Qiang and others were understanding the situation with the deceased's classmates and teachers.
