Chapter 11: The Corpses Secret

Translator: Ca5 Editor: MadHatter

At four in the afternoon, a full autopsy report appeared in front of Jiang He and others.

The complete autopsy report has been released, Xu Yiman announced to everyone as she took the autopsy report. Previously, we gathered the corpses blood, liver and kidney cells, and the like. No psychedelic drugs were found in the blood of the two corpses, and the liver and kidney cells had no trace of poisoning.

Xu Yiman quickly flipped through the autopsy report and read the most essential part to everyone: The anatomy of the brain revealed that there was no suffocation prior to the two lives, implying

And this means that both of them died while being sober, and there is no killing after fainting, Jiang He explained.

But I thoroughly examined the two corpses surroundings while I was there. Before their deaths, Wu Guifeng and He Huijuan displayed no signs of struggle. Jiang He examined piece by piece: He Huijuans hands were flat on both sides of her body, and the covers on her bed were relatively flat. Even if she had received a direct shot in the heart, she should be able to react for a few seconds, let alone a shot in the stomach.

Then the only explanation is that someone cleaned up the aftermath of the scene.

Jiang Hes eyes were like a torch: I am 90% certain of this.

To make sure if this was the case, Jiang He asked: Is there only one persons fingerprint on the serrated knife?

Hearing Jiang Hes remarks, Wang Chao hurriedly flipped through the scene trace record sheet and nodded abruptly: You are right. After examining the serrated knife, it was discovered that it bore only one persons fingerprint. After a comparison, it was determined that it was Wu Guifengs own fingerprint.

Wang Chao added, Judging from the overall information we have obtained, it is basically clear now.

The door was locked, and even if a key existed, it was impractical to open it from the outside, and the residents were on the sixth floor. Had there been a murderer, this operation will be inconceivable. Besides, they could at least smash the glass and yell wildly since they were both awake and even if they couldnt stop the murderer.

Aside from that, theres another part we need to discuss. Wang Chao pointed to the information on the record sheet: There are only Wu Guifengs fingerprints on the knife.

Isnt all of this evidence of iron nails? Jiang He shook his head as if it were a rattle: No, the most critical point is omitted. What did Li Weiyi have to say about the mobile phone?

Wang Chao responded: Li Weiyi claimed to have left at seven in the morning and did not notice He Huijuans mobile phone. He Huijuan was a night owl, according to him. He Huijuan would frequently play with her phone on the quilt before she had fallen asleep. She often fell to the ground while playing with her phone, so she might have lost it or something. So Li Weiyi was unaware if He Huijuans phone had been stolen or what happened to it.

In summary, her mobile phone is the critical point.

Jiang He stated, It is unthinkable that a mobile phone would vanish. Should the phone be found, we will discover who is most likely to be the murderer.

Xu Yiman shook the report in her hand, producing a rubbing sound. Everyones attention was drawn back to Xu Yiman. Xu Yiman cleared her throat and spoke, This autopsy report is not over yet.

It was discovered during my autopsy that He Huijuan had sex before her death.

Xu Yimans voice was soft, but each word was clear in everyones ears.

While there was no such thing as a taboo when it came to solving cases, the truth was the truth.

However, when several big men heard this, hesitancy was still palpable. They all feigned to

look around as if Xu Yimans words escaped their attention. Jiang He was not afraid to ask, Is it possible to tell if she had sex before death? How long was the interval between death and the time when the female corpse was detected? Were there male sperm in her corpse?

Jiang Hes forthright questions gave the surrounding police officers the idea that Jiang He was sort of shameless. If you switch back to the prior forensic doctor, Lao Li, who is a male, there should be no problem in asking such questions. But standing in front of him was an attractive and sexy female forensic doctor aged 27 or 28, which was rather embarrassing.

For Xu Yiman, this was nothing new. After all, she had been dissecting bodies since she was in college. In contrast to these inexperienced cops who have just arrived, Xu Yiman can claim that she has dissected more corpses.

Xu Yiman responded to Jiang Hes questions one at a time: First of all, as long as their death transpired not long ago, whether the deceased had sexual intercourse before her death can be determined through anatomy. For instance, the contraction of the cervix, the secretion of estrogen, a series of comprehensive examinations such as an increase in body fluid secretion, etc., the issues you mentioned can be uncovered.

Its difficult for me to draw a specific time conclusion for your second question, but the interval this time must not be too long, Xu Yiman stated

.

If a time frame must be given, it should be within two hours.

When a woman has sex, the lower body will return to its original state within a period of time, and obviously, according to my anatomy, the deceaseds lower body died before it returned to normal, said Xu Yiman.

When a person dies, their muscle tissue is generally stereotyped in the state of their final death. Even if the corpse is not deliberately disposed of, it may still be discovered. Fortunately, the two corpses we discovered were rather recent. Many things could be uncovered.

As for your third question, I did not find a male body fluid in the secretions of He Huijuans lower body, Xu Yiman sighed. However, glycerin, propylene glycol, and other substances were discovered.

Lubricant? exclaimed Jiang He.

Xu Yimans eyes lit up after hearing Jiang Hes words. The fact that Jiang He in front of her recognized what these chemical ingredients were utilized for when most people wouldnt have guessed it gave Xu Yiman the sense that she had met her soul mate.

Xu Yiman concurred: Yes, this is the main component of moisturizer. However, it does not have to be a specially purchased moisturizer. Nowadays, most condoms include these substances.

Jiang He abruptly pounded the table and stated, The deceased had sex during that time, but there was no indication that she was struggling. If there had been a break-in, rape, and murder, the situation would not have been this way. The clock revealed that it was somewhere between 10 and eleven oclock at the moment. At this time, a lot of people were outside. According to my knowledge, criminals rarely choose to rape at noon. I am 80% positive that the murderer and He Huijuan are acquaintances based on the results of these thorough calculations.

What exactly do you mean? Wang Chao wanted to say something but hesitated after looking at Xu Yiman.

Just say whatever you want. Its not like I havent seen anything as a doctor, Xu Yiman said.

Do you mean He Huijuan cuckolded Li Weiyi? continued Wang Chao.

Based on the current situation, there is a 30% possibility for that, Jiang He said.

How come the likelihood is so low? What about the other 70%? asked Wang Chao

The remaining 70% is not another possibility. After discarding those probabilities that basically cant be relied upon, there are still several possibilities.

10%, Jiang He said. It doesnt necessarily have to be a man. Putting a condom on any object may create such an effect. It may be that He Huijuan was killed after her masturbation session. The other 20% is that He Huijuan was pressured into doing it. If she didnt agree, the murderer would kill her, so she didnt dare to struggle. She may have asked the other party to leave as soon as possible, but He Huijuan was killed in the end.

For the remaining 40% is that Li Weiyi returned at noon, Jiang He said after a brief pause.

Li Weiyi simply has to check in when he comes to work and check out when he departs, according to my research into his line of employment. Li Weiyi has more time to carry out crimes since the time of day may be changed at will.

What about the crimes motivation? Why would he kill his wife and mother? asked Xu Yiman.

Jiang He said while shaking his head, Wu Guifeng committed suicide based on my investigation of the on-site environment. When conducting the analysis, you must first separate Wu Guifeng.

Also, I never analyze what other people think since I dont grasp it and cant analyze it. This world is rational and emotional, Jiang He remarked as he looked around. I can only evaluate general traits using the knowledge about people. For instance, this individual is continuously at work and we will refer to him as a workaholic. Another example is that this individual constantly looks at the bottom of a girls skirt and we will call him a peeping lunatic.

But

Thats all I can analyze, Jiang He said. I cant tell why these people are always working, or why they are so fascinated by girls underwear. These are all stories from their inner world, which is often inconceivable to analyze.

What people are thinking in their hearts is something that can never be analyzed, and it is also the subject that will disorient us the most to solving the case, so we have to lay out the factors of peoples hearts, and what we will receive is the closest to truth, Jiang He slowly narrated, and he couldnt tell what kind of mood he was in at the time.

People can fabricate lies, but the evidence left behind will not, Jiang He explained.

Wang Chao listened to Jiang Hes words, but he disagreed with him: What you said this time is not comprehensive. I attended a professional session while I was a student. I dont recall what was that professionals name very well. However, he is the type of person who can see through your thoughts and is extremely influential. When he was younger, this professional was also a very powerful police officer. Im not aiming at you, but I believe there are many people who can see the traces of the scene, but few who can glimpse into peoples hearts.

Does such a person exist? Jiang He inquired.

Wang Chao nodded repeatedly: Of course there exists such a man, like you stated, the evidence is dead, but people are alive, and he can see through their secrets at a glance, he is a genuinely strong investigator.

Wang Chao then sighed once more: The issue is that someone like him is too distant from us. Ill never be able to do it, but youre more talented than the majority of the people
