NOVEL NEXT Chapter 151: Rare! Where Is the Head?
After a long while, Zhang Hu asked in surprise, "But, isn't there only one head in this room?"
Zhang Yean, standing by the side, spoke up, "Mr. Zhang, we are indeed only seeing one head at the moment."
"However, there are two human pubic bones at the scene, which clearly indicates two victims."
"Two victims?"
In an instant, Zhang Hu's face was full of horror.
Two victims? Why is there only one head?
Although he is not a frontline detective, he often deals with detectives at work.
Where is the head of the other victim?
Could it have been disposed of elsewhere?
Before the criminal investigation team arrived, Mr. Zhang initially thought this was just an ordinary fire incident.
When the fire was extinguished and a body was found, he still believed it was likely an accidental death by burning.
But!
Now there are two bodies, and one even without a head!
Zhang Hu's mind quickly raced, and suddenly a terrifying thought occurred to him.
That is, the head of the other victim was dismembered and discarded elsewhere.
After a long while, Zhang Hu took a step to the left and quietly asked, "Mr. Li! This Mr. Jiang seems quite young; is his expertise reliable?"
At this moment.
Li Jian's brow was tightly furrowed, the pressure on him continually growing.
From initially reporting an accidental fire, discovering one body, to finding two bodies, and then one without a head.
In just 20 minutes, his understanding of this case had elevated step by step.
Now it seems, this case is very complicated.
Where is the head?
At the scene? Or discarded elsewhere?
After thinking for a long time, Li Jian turned his head and said seriously, "Jiang An is young, but his expertise is very high!"
Obviously, he fully approved Jiang An's earlier judgment.
From previous cases, Jiang An's forensic skills have become authoritative in the criminal investigation team.
Everyone in the criminal investigation team deeply trusted his judgments, fully able to withstand the test of the case.
Upon hearing Li Jian's reply, Zhang Hu's eyes widened instantly, his face turning pale.
Even the last thread of possibility in his heart had shattered.
Yesterday, Zhang Hu gave an important speech at the Jiangcheng Industrial Park's business environment exchange meeting.
He proposed many solutions to the safety issues of the Jiangcheng Industrial Park and promised that each solution had been implemented.
However, just 24 hours later, such a heinous crime happened in the district.
Isn't this clearly a slap in the face?
If it were merely an accidental factory fire, the responsibility for security might not be significant.
However, if a murder occurred and one person's head was cut off, it becomes a serious issue.
At the moment when Zhang Hu was extremely frightened, Wan squatted beside Jiang An, holding an evidence bag.
"Junior, is the conclusion that there are two victims solid?"
Jiang An nodded.
"Absolutely no problem."
"Human body autopsy is the most basic course in forensic medicine."
"In the human anatomy exam that year, I was only one point away from a perfect score."
"Really! What was that one point lost on?"
Jiang An replied, "Missed one word in a short answer question."
Wan instantly gave a thumbs-up, "Awesome! Awesome!"
Then, Jiang An continued, "I just saw the pubic bones of two victims; the gender can be completely confirmed, it's one male and one female here."
Wan glanced over at where the bodies lay.
He curiously said, "These two bodies' bones are mainly distributed under the iron frame; does this mean that when the fire broke out, both bodies were on the bed?"
Jiang An nodded.
"From the current distribution of the bones, we can basically reach that conclusion."
Zhang Yean put away her DSLR camera and crouched down as well.
She looked around, "Is it possible that the skeletal transfer happened because firefighters used high-pressure water hoses during the fire extinguishing process?"
Jiang An turned his head and said, "Senior, the situation you mentioned does exist during firefighting."
"However, the premise is that firefighters used high-pressure water hoses during the process."
"But there isn't a lot of water on the floor in this room, fully indicating there are no traces of using high-pressure water hoses to extinguish the fire."
After hearing this, Zhang Yean looked around and gently nodded.
"It seems that firefighters indeed did not use high-pressure water hoses."
At this time, Li Jian's brows furrowed into the shape of a '川'.
In his detective career, Li Jian has handled many fire-related cases and often dealt with bodies accidentally burned to death.
However,
It's his first time encountering a death scene like today!
At the same time.
In the Jiangcheng City Public Security Bureau's integrated media briefing room.
Mr. Ma was attending the murder case press conference, the venue filled with media personnel from over 50 organizations in Jiangcheng.
Among them were media representatives who had paid particular attention to this case since the last women's federation meeting.
After a brief opening statement, Mr. Ma said, "Dear media friends, welcome to the Jiangcheng City Bureau for this case briefing."
"Regarding the female body found in the Yongming River, there was considerable attention from online public opinion, with many media units rushing to report."
"Now, I announce that with the efforts of the entire criminal investigation team, the case has been successfully solved within three days."
"This is a very important milestone in our history of solving cases."
"There are many modern criminal investigation methods today, including video surveillance and base station signal tracking."
"However, traditional forensic examination remains extremely important."
"When technological means fail to take effect, the most primitive scene investigation and logical analysis are precisely a good breakthrough, able to lay a solid foundation for finding the perpetrator."
