The sun is scorching!
Several police cars were speeding on the highway from Dajing to Hengshi.
The people in the car were the task force led by Shen Ting.
The investigation department's cooperation documents have been issued, and the staff have contacted the Heng City Investigation Bureau.
Shen Ting sat in the back seat of the leading police car, silently summarizing the doubts about the case discussed by the group members.
"The Wanfo Cave corpse case appears to be an ordinary murder and corpse burial case, but there are many suspicious points."
Currently, there are four confirmed ones:
The first and most crucial point is naturally the uncertainty of the source of the corpse.
Also, why was the murderer able to dump the body in Wanfo Cave without being discovered?
Also, why did no one call the police when the victim disappeared for more than 20 years?
Also, the murderer's method of hiding the body, the reason why it was twice as effective but half as effective, and the whereabouts of the remaining one-third of the body...
Of course, having many doubts is a good thing from the perspective of determining the direction of the investigation.
Because the more doubts there are, the more directions there are for investigation!
"As for the first doubt, regarding the source of the corpse, I do have a solution.
Perhaps, through phrenology, the victim's shattered skull could be repaired and his face restored to its original appearance."
With the victim's face, it is useful for issuing a bounty or comparing with the facial recognition system.
It is much easier to confirm the source of the corpse.
certainly!
Cranioscopy is not an unpopular technology, and the Heng City Investigation Bureau naturally thought of it.
The reason they didn't do it was probably because they encountered difficulties.
“The skull I restored previously was from the female corpse case in the cave, the one with the face and skull shattered.
The skull in this case is even more difficult to restore than that case."
Because the skull of the victim in this case was not only broken, but also missing.
More than one-third of the entire skull is missing.
The broken pieces can be restored, although it is very difficult.
But there is no way to deal with the missing part.
Ordinary people may think that the human face is symmetrical and the missing parts can be repaired by mirror restoration.
But actually it doesn’t work.
Because the skull is not actually completely symmetrical.
Especially when surface tissue is added, the asymmetry becomes more obvious.
Therefore, if one only knows the technology of craniotomy reconstruction, even if Shen Ting's technology has reached the top level, there will still be relatively large errors.
But this can be improved through human body measurement.
Through the characteristics of the victim's torso bones, Shen Ting was able to calculate the approximate data of the missing part of the skull.
The combination of the two technologies can even perfectly reproduce the asymmetry of the craniofacial region.
"By then, it shouldn't be difficult to identify the source of the corpse."
"As for the second suspicious point, the corresponding investigation direction is a little simpler.
You can check the operators of the scenic area, the builders of the Buddha statues, the construction team of the Ten Thousand Buddha Caves, etc.
Even though Wanfo Mountain was not closed at that time, it was still under construction.
It is not easy to hide the body under the Buddha statue in Wanfo Cave without anyone noticing.
These people are all suspected of committing the crime.”
“The third question is why no one called the police, which is hard to explain.
There are so many possibilities!
The victim may be a homeless person, without parents, friends or colleagues.
Maybe he had family and reported the case to the police, but for some reason, DNA was not collected from the victim or his relatives.”
“The fourth suspicious point is similar.
The murderer's idea of disposing of the body was poor. It's hard to say whether he did it on purpose or was just stupid."
Many times, bystanders will subconsciously think that the murderer has a very high IQ and meticulous thinking.
Maybe it is true!
But it is also possible that the murderer did it simply because he didn't think too much about it.
Or after killing someone, his emotions fluctuate violently and his brain goes crazy.
“As for the disappearance of the remaining one-third of the bodies, there are too many possibilities.
It could be human error or other reasons.
In this situation, it is difficult to come up with a clear line of inquiry.”
"For the time being, let's focus on cranial reconstruction and investigating the personnel involved in the scenic area!"
Chen Ting shared the two ideas he had confirmed with the group members, and everyone agreed.
He shared the information of the relevant personnel of the scenic spot at that time for everyone to view.
…
Heng City and Dajing are adjacent to each other, and the drive between them is less than two hours.
After getting off the highway and entering Heng City, Shen Ting called Zhuo Yan directly.
Zhuo Yan is the director of the Heng City Investigation Bureau.
“Director Zhuo, I’m Chen Ting from the task force!
We have already arrived in Heng City..."
After a brief exchange between the two sides, Shen Ting decided to go to the scene of the crime, Wanfo Mountain Scenic Area, to take a brief look at the situation on the scene.
No matter what the case is, on-site investigation is of course crucial.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ting asked Xiong Beibei, who was driving, to navigate directly to Wanfo Mountain...
