Qin Shen sneered, "Yeah, special new consultant."
Xu Man felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head and smiled.
The female medical examiner glanced at him and said, "I'm asking you a serious question. If you don't tell the truth, I'll treat her as an irrelevant person and ask her to leave."
"You'll know after you see it. Who else could I bring to the scene at this time? It must be a newcomer." Qin Shen replied lazily, "Xu Man, a student from Xinjing Public Security University, here for internship."
Then he introduced her to Xu Man, "Guan Shuiyun. Deputy head of the forensic team."
Xu Man quickly smiled at Guan Shuiyun: "Hello, Forensic Doctor Guan."
Guan Shuiyun also smiled at her: "It's rare to have a new girl in the detachment. You are really unlucky to have such a scene as soon as you arrived. Do you feel okay?"
"Hmm... not bad."
"That's good. Were you brought here by Captain Qin?"
Xu Man nodded. She didn’t know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that forensic doctor Guan’s attitude towards her was a little subtle, but she couldn’t tell exactly where it was subtle.
Could it be that he doesn't like following Qin Shen? Looking at how intimately she and Qin Shen were chatting and laughing, could it be that they were a couple? Then she must be careful and keep a distance from Captain Qin so as not to cause misunderstanding.
At this time, Li Shijie walked by a few people carrying an evidence bag. Seeing them introducing each other, he stopped and gave Guan Shuiyun a funny smile: "Wow, forensic doctor Guan, are you feeling a sense of crisis? With such a beautiful and charming junior sister here, it seems that you can't keep the title of the flower of this team."
Guan Shuiyun sneered at him coldly: "If you can't talk, then shut up, otherwise I can't guarantee that you won't find yourself lying on my dissection bed when you wake up in the middle of the night."
After hearing this, Li Shijie immediately fled at the speed of light, leaving Xu Man standing there, smiling awkwardly at Guan Shuiyun.
Guan Shuiyun is indeed very beautiful, with fine facial features and fair skin. Her tall figure and white coat complement each other perfectly. She has a unique kind of coldness, and her appearance will be praised wherever she goes.
Of course Xu Man was not bad looking, but that was what made it awkward. Women naturally had a subtle hostility towards good-looking people of the same sex, not to mention being pointed out so bluntly. Even though it was said in a joking manner, it still felt weird.
Qin Shen's impatience saved her. He turned and walked towards the place where the new discovery was made, leaving only one sentence to urge her and Guan Shuiyun: "What are you doing here? Go to the scene, there are new discoveries."
Xu Man quickly agreed and was about to follow, but suddenly she remembered the look Guan Shuiyun gave her when she was talking to her just now, so she did not move. She waited until Guan Shuiyun had walked more than a meter with Qin Shen before she took two steps behind to catch up.
When you first arrive, it is better to be cautious before you have figured out the interpersonal relationships, so as not to offend someone accidentally without knowing it.
Following Qin Shen's instructions, the police officers dug out three pink plastic bags nearby. After opening them, they found that they were filled with the same body parts as in the first plastic bag. After preliminary arrangement, they were pieced together into a petite human figure.
"She's an underage girl." Guan Shuiyun said after just one look, "She hasn't developed her secondary sexual characteristics yet. She's between nine and twelve years old. Special circumstances cannot be ruled out."
"What are the details?" Qin Shen asked.
"There are multiple mechanical injuries on the body, several of which are near the joints. They should have been caused when the body was dismembered." She squatted down to examine the body. "The majority of the wounds are concentrated on the neck and shoulders. The preliminary cause of death is massive bleeding caused by a ruptured artery. More specific information will be known after the autopsy."
Qin Shen nodded, did not look at the body again, but walked to the place where the plastic bag was dug out and started to check.
Xu Man also followed and looked down at the ground in the same way.
"Have you found anything?" She observed for a while and suddenly a voice sounded beside her ear. She was startled. Then she realized that it was Qin Shen who was asking her. She hurriedly tried to observe the pit, sorting out the current information while racking her brains to think of the sentence.
"Uh... I think this pit isn't very deep, maybe less than a meter. It's easy for cats and dogs to dig it out, just like the tourist who reported the case today. It's a bit... abnormal?"
"Not deep?" Qin Shen smiled, as if lamenting her naivety, "Do you know how many meters deep a normal person can dig?"
Xu Man looked up at him guiltily, she really didn't know this.
"Five meters?"
"Two meters." Qin Shen answered her, "This is based on the premise that the person digging the ground is a strong man. If it is a woman, it is generally one meter. This pit is about half a meter deep. The person who buried the body may be a woman, or a thin man who is not strong enough to dig a deep pit. It is not ruled out that this is a first-time crime and has no experience. He was afraid of being discovered, so he buried the body when he dug enough to save time."
Xu Man nodded humbly to show that she would accept the advice.
"And the perpetrator is very familiar with this park, because the area he chose to dump the body is in the woods deep in the center of the park. Most people dump bodies in the wilderness or in familiar places. This is not only not in the suburbs, but also an open park with a large flow of people, which means the murderer is very familiar with this area. Maybe he lives nearby, or maybe he often passes by here."
"Maybe he has only been here a few times, but he has memorized the characteristics of this park? After all, this is a wetland park, which is easily associated with a forest." Xu Man said, "If he comes here to dump the body in the middle of the night, he won't be afraid of being seen."
Qin Shen shook his head. "This park does not charge tourists. It is open 24/7. There are also lake lights at night, so there will be no shortage of tourists. We cannot ensure that all people have left in the middle of the night, and there are security guards patrolling at night."
"Oh." Xu Man replied hesitantly, "I'm not a local, so I'm not familiar with this..."
"It's enough to know now." Qin Shen looked at the pit again, turned around and walked away, "Let's go somewhere else to have a look."
Xu Man hurried to follow.
After checking all four pits, they found that the depth of each pit was about 0.4 to 0.6 meters. The technicians speculated that the murderer had probably dumped all the bodies within an hour. The inspection of the body parts on the other side was also completed. Guan Shuiyun confirmed that there were no missing parts. The body parts in the four bags could be pieced together to form a complete body of a young female, which should be all.
After hearing this, Qin Shen did not tell his men to stop working. Instead, he asked the members of Group 2 to bring the police dogs over and continue searching the woods. "We can't be sure that this is the only female corpse. The murderer may have committed crimes before. Check the entire forest just in case."
Then he asked Li Shijie: "Where are the three people who found the body and reported the case?"
"This way." Li Shijie led them in a direction. "Brother Zhang has already asked them once, and it's almost the same as what he said on the phone. There's no special information."
"Bring the interrogation record here and let me see it."
Li Shijie quickly walked to the side, asked a middle-aged policeman for a notebook, then trotted back and handed it to Qin Shen. "Brother Qin, here you go."
Qin Shen opened the notebook, scanned it, then closed it and asked Li Shijie to return it to its owner.
Xu Man was watching from the side and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What does it say?"
She originally thought that Qin Shen would not answer such a troublesome question, but he did not expect her to answer it. "It was a normal question. The guy who brought the dog in illegally was brought into the woods by his dog at about one o'clock. The dog was seen digging the ground for more than ten minutes, and then found the plastic bag. The security guard was called by him before one thirty, and he called the police immediately after he found something wrong. The testimony is clear and consistent with the call to the police."
"Don't you need to ask the first person to discover it?" Xu Man followed him on the grass, stepping deep and shallow. "Doesn't the book say that the first person to discover it is very important?"
"Of course, we will take him back to the bureau for questioning, but we can leave him alone for now. Do you have paper and pen?"
The sudden change of topic made Xu Man unable to react for a moment, and she nodded subconsciously and replied, "I brought it."
"Then follow me to the monitoring room. I'll ask the questions and you take notes."
Qin Shen asked a security guard to lead the way to the monitoring room and checked the surveillance videos around the woods between nine o'clock last night and three o'clock in the morning. Since this is a park open to the public free of charge, the government has put all its funds into maintaining the park's ecological environment. There are few surveillance cameras in the park, which barely cover the entire area, but there are still certain blind spots. Unfortunately, there are two of them around the woods.
After fast forwarding through the video, Qin Shen didn't find any suspicious characters for the time being, so he made some inquiries to the security guard in the monitoring room, such as whether there were any abnormalities in the past two days, what the specific security devices in the park were like, how many exits there were, and whether there were guards on duty all day. Xu Man listened and took notes nearby.
The security guard answered the questions one by one, and according to Qin Shen's request, he pulled up the surveillance cameras of several exits and played the video footage from 9 pm last night to 3 am this morning.
Seeing that there was still no discovery after fast-forwarding the video, Qin Shen asked them to adjust the time forward, but he stopped after only watching for a while: before nine o'clock in the evening, the park has a large flow of people, especially at places like entrances and exits, where people come and go, making it difficult to observe anything in a limited time.
Nothing was found in the monitoring room for the time being, so Qin Shen asked the security guard to copy a video, took it and left. When he came out, he happened to meet Li Shijie contacting him on the intercom: Team 2 had completed the search of the woods and found nothing.
This is good news, indicating that this is just an isolated case. Cases involving minors being victims are always better than serial killings.
At around 3:30 in the afternoon, reporters from the local TV station also rushed over. They had heard from somewhere that body parts had been found in the park, and came to the scene to film and interview the news.
Qin Shen had the reporters blocked outside the woods and not allowed them to come in to film. Fortunately, the reporters knew that this was the early stage of the case and many things could not be disclosed to the public, so they cooperated and did not come in. They just interviewed the people outside and that was it.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the police officers completed the investigation of the scene and had almost finished questioning the security guards and passers-by nearby. Qin Shen ordered the team to withdraw and seal the body and related evidence and take them back to the detachment.
Sitting in the car on the way back, Xu Man quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The first on-site investigation was unexpectedly easy. Although it was a bit difficult at the beginning, she later followed Qin Shen to other places to question and watch surveillance. She didn't come into contact with many corpses, so she finally didn't vomit.
However, when she returned to the detachment and got out of the police car, she discovered a problem.
She was originally planning to report to the Municipal Bureau today, but was inexplicably dragged to a scene of crime. Now that the scene of crime is over, what should she do? Her internship was not in the Criminal Investigation Brigade.
I brought up the topic again with Qin Shen and asked him when he would be free to take me to the Municipal Bureau to report? But now they are obviously busy with the dismemberment case. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for her to bring it up at this time?
Then where should she go? What to do?
Standing in the parking yard of the detachment, Xu Man was a little dazed.
The author has something to say:
Although the Kaiwen Big Rewards event has ended, according to the Meteorological Bureau, there will be a period of red envelope rain recently, but I don’t know who will get the red envelope~……
