Forensic Medicine Qu Xiaoshui

Chapter 404 The Sloppy Ghost (19)

"One o'clock in the morning?" Bai Li looked at Ding Feng who had put the food in his hand on the table beside her.

Now Ding Feng's mood is very complicated, he can't eat at all, no matter how delicious the food is, it tastes like chewing wax.

"I remember, we have been using Ding Feng's inferred death time at [-]:[-] a.m. during the on-site autopsy, right?" Yan Yuanye glanced at Ding Feng, then at Qu Xiaoshui: "Then Ding Feng Did your initial check go wrong?"

Qu Xiaoshui shook his head.

Jiang Yue walked up to Ding Feng, stuffed the food he had put down back into his hands, and patted him on the shoulder: "Ding Feng did nothing wrong."

The estimated time of death given by Ding Feng was jointly approved by Qu Xiaoshui and Jiang Yue, so there was nothing wrong.

"During the on-site inspection, Ding Feng measured the body's rectal temperature to be 35.1 degrees." Qu Xiaoshui said: "The weight of the deceased was 48 kg, and the body surface was generally pale when found. There is no problem with these."

She looked at Yan Yuanye and Ke Weixing who wrote plainly and couldn't understand, and explained: "After a person dies, the temperature of the corpse usually drops by about one degree every hour. Pu Cixuan's body temperature is higher than the benchmark body temperature." 37 degrees, a drop of 2 degrees, so Ding Feng speculated that Pu Cixuan had died for about two hours at that time, so he concluded that the estimated time of death was around three o'clock in the morning, which is not wrong."

Qu Xiaoshui took the tablet and wrote while writing, "The time of death estimated from body temperature is around three o'clock in the morning."

"Based on the condition of the corpse spot, the time of death is estimated to be around one o'clock in the morning."

Ke Weixing's jaw dropped in shock. He couldn't imagine: "Can there be two different estimated times of death on one corpse?"

"It's really strange." Yan Yuanye nodded deeply.

The high self-esteem of the two technical nerds was ignored by everyone.

Ke Weixing thought of something, and quickly called up the chat between Pu Cixuan and Shen Junwei: "But it shouldn't be! The victim, Pu Cixuan, should have been alive around two o'clock in the morning."

He pointed to the time on the chat conversation and said, "At that time, she replied to Shen Junwei's message."

Mi Yu rolled his eyes, and really didn't know what to do with this innocent guy: "That is probably the murderer's disguise, just replying with a text and expression on the phone, anyone can do it."

"Pretending? That's how it is." Qu Xiaoshui took a sip of the soy milk that Jiang Yue handed over to her mouth. The warm soy milk made her feel much better. Because of the two words [camouflage], she had a new way of thinking.
Qu Xiaoshui's eyes became very bright, and her pupils were full of spirits. She said confidently: "I understand, there are two different reasons for the estimated time of death."

"What is it?" Bai Li was very curious and immediately asked.

"The murderer heated the victim's body in order to prevent the body's temperature from dropping." Qu Xiaoshui gave the answer.

She smiled and looked at Ding Feng who said nothing: "Because Pu Cixuan's body was heated, the time of death estimated from the body temperature was three o'clock in the morning, which is inconsistent with the time of death estimated from the corpse spots. "

Jiang Yue stopped feeding, frowned and said, "However, increasing the temperature will accelerate the post-mortem stiffness of the corpse. It should be easy to detect during the initial on-site inspection."

Qu Xiaoshui stretched his neck, and took a big sip of the soy milk in Jiang Yue's hand: "The murderer is very smart, and the place he chose to heat up is likely to be a place that is not prone to stiffness and has few muscles."

Mi Yu rolled up the empty soybean milk cup in his hand, and said clearly: "For example, the abdomen of the corpse was heated alone."

Qu Xiaoshui nodded repeatedly.

"However, even if it is really heated," Bai Li still did not loosen the frown between her eyebrows: "But we all know the situation at the crime scene. There was no furniture in that house, and the air conditioner couldn't work. How did the murderer do it?" Did you manage to heat the abdomen of the corpse alone?"

"Yes." Ke Weixing nodded in agreement.

He couldn't understand the situation of the house very well. There was nothing at all.

So, under such limited conditions, how did the murderer heat the corpse?

"Chixiaodou..." Mi Yu remembered the bean that had been denatured due to heat, and when it came to heating, judging from the physical evidence at the scene, this was the only thing that was related.

"That's right! It's Chixiaodou!" Qu Xiaoshui's eyes lit up, she threw the tablet in her hand to Jiang Yue, picked up her coat, and ran out without looking back.

Everyone held the food in their hands, looked at the half-way meeting and the big screen, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Shall we continue to eat?" Yan Yuanye asked reluctantly: "It won't taste good when it's cold."

Bai Li rolled her eyes: "Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat!"

Yan Yuanye... was wronged.

Jiang Yue laughed because of the two of them getting along: "Everyone, eat while it's hot, she must have thought of something, and she will be back soon."

Without Qu Xiaoshui, the meeting could not continue, and everyone began to concentrate on eating.

After some turmoil, Ding Feng very consciously packed up the trash on the table and said his farewell: "I'll go back to the team first."

He looked at all the members on the 13th floor: "I'm sorry, because I have caused so much trouble to everyone because of my overreaching."

Yan Yuanye was full of food and drink at this time, and seeing Ding Feng's serious expression, he quickly waved his hands: "It's not your problem after all. It's just that the murderer is too cunning, so don't think too much about it."

The others also hurriedly tried to comfort them.

Ding Feng's heart warmed up.

Because of his wrong speculation, these people worked for nothing all day, but they didn't even blame him.

This made this man who has been fighting on the front line all the year round feel unspeakably moved.

Qu Xiaoshui went to a nearby farmer's market and bought a lot of Chixiaodou.

When she returned to the 13th floor excitedly, Ding Feng had already left.

"What are you buying this for?" Ke Weixing looked at the bag in Qu Xiaoshui's hand and asked curiously.

Qu Xiaoshui ran to Jiang Yue's locker, took out one of his T-shirts, and looked at his companions: "Do you want to go to the scene of the crime together for an experiment?"

The few people looked at each other first, and excited expressions flashed in their eyes, and they all raised their hands happily: "Go! Go."

Qu Xiaoshui just waited with his things in his hands. Seeing that all the staff had put on their coats, the group went to the duplex building where the crime scene was located.

After crossing the blockade, Qu Xiaoshui and his party put on their shoe covers and walked in.

As seen before, the first floor of the house was empty, with almost nothing in it.

Qu Xiaoshui walked to the kitchen first.

She first checked the power supply, and when she saw that the power supply was normal, she nodded in satisfaction.
