Huang Qiangming was in charge of controlling the situation. When he heard what Jiang Yuan said, he immediately walked over and asked, "What's going on?"

"Judging by the shape, it's a female pubic hair." Jiang Yuan picked up the hair with a pair of tweezers, observed it under the light, and then put it into an evidence bag.

The deceased was male, so the sudden appearance of a female pubic hair was obviously an important clue and evidence.

Director Guan Xi walked over and asked, "Can you really determine it just by the shape?"

"Female pubic hair is generally shorter and rougher. Compared to the victim's, it's still relatively easy to distinguish." Jiang Yuan explained briefly.

Director Guan Xi smiled inexplicably and coughed twice. "That makes sense..."

A young technician who was doing on-site investigation next to them had a thirst for knowledge and casually said, "Armpit hair and beard are also curved."

Old Yan, who was dusting for fingerprints, burst out laughing and looked at the young man doing on-site investigation, saying with a heavy heart, "Xiao Yang, you lack experience."

Everyone in the room showed a mysterious smile.

Comrade Xiao Yang couldn't bear it and whispered, "This can't be determined just by experience. We need to talk about science."

Director Guan Xi readily agreed and curiously asked Jiang Yuan, "Tell us, what scientific basis is there?"

"** is more elastic, the cross-section of armpit hair is elliptical, and the cross-section of beard is triangular, which is harder..." Jiang Yuan answered casually.

Comrade Xiao Yang was stunned on the spot. "Has someone really studied this?"

Director Guan Xi smiled satisfied and then said to the captain Huang Qiangming next to him, "Send the evidence to the lab as soon as possible, and the chain of evidence must be solid."

Huang Qiangming immediately nodded. He was also worried about the evidence just now.

For the police, biological evidence is always a high-end product among physical evidence. Especially DNA and fingerprints, they have strong specificity and high recognition rate. In the litigation stage, physical evidence with DNA evidence will also have higher recognition.

Nowadays, the judicial department is required to focus more on physical evidence and less on confessions, which is also a disguised way of enhancing the importance of DNA evidence.

Jiang Yuan handed over the evidence bag and continued to work.

Director Guan Xi and others stayed for a while and then went out to speak in a low voice.

The on-site investigators, trace examiners, and forensic experts also left the scene one after another.

After sunset.

Jiang Yuan and another young police officer lifted the body onto an Iveco and pulled it back to the funeral home.

Wu Jun followed the car.

The funeral home at night was terrifyingly gloomy.

The dark pine tree looked sturdy during the day, but at night it was easy to evoke various associations...

The old man guarding the door rubbed his eyes and opened the door with a smirk, pointing the way. "Don't go to the left, there are many ghosts on the left."

The young police officer who came with them shuddered all over and couldn't help asking, "What's the reason for this?"

The old man guarding the door said listlessly, "If you don't believe me, go to the left. It doesn't matter to me."

"Let's go to the right." Wu Jun said seriously.

The young police officer released the brake, turned the steering wheel to the right, but still couldn't help saying, "He opened the door for us at night, maybe he just wanted to scare us."

"Maybe." Wu Jun replied.

"Is there any other possibility?"Wu Jun thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's the blessing of the Bodhisattva?"

The young police officer was stunned for a long time before he understood that Wu Jun was making a pun and couldn't say anything.

The three of them worked together to arrive at the autopsy room as quickly as possible.

When the bright white light flashed and the stainless steel autopsy table gleamed with silver light, it was particularly reassuring.

Wu Jun and Jiang Yuan were busy preparing for the autopsy.

In a busy urban district, there may still be a queue for body autopsies. But in a place like Ningtai County, there are almost no private autopsies, and cases of homicide and abnormal deaths are rare. They could work peacefully with just one body.

As for staying up late, when faced with a sudden homicide, everyone's nerves were stretched taut, and it wasn't just them who would be staying up late.

Similar to the previous autopsy, after the deceased's brother-in-law who came later signed the documents, Wu Jun still let Jiang Yuan do the operation.

He had the idea of letting Jiang Yuan practice, of course, it was also because he was tired from the on-site investigation.

Watching Jiang Yuan pick up the scalpel, Wu Jun said, "We, as forensic experts, cut the body and pay attention to making big incisions. You can pull it open with confidence, and it's okay to make big movements."

Jiang Yuan nodded and first observed the body.

When the body was still at the scene, although it was gradually cooling down, it still gave people the feeling of warmth.

Now, on the stainless steel autopsy table, the human attributes of the body were greatly lost.

Jiang Yuan also felt a slight discomfort.

This was the second body he had handled since he started working, and it was a completely unfamiliar body... Thinking back, Jiang Yuan felt that Seventeenth Uncle's body was more familiar.

Jiang Yuan tightened the scalpel and pulled it from the neck to the pubic bone in one breath.

The skin and flesh that surfaced were red, white, and yellow, and Jiang Yuan's emotions were instantly relieved.

The deceased's brother-in-law who came to witness couldn't handle it. He took a glance and his expression changed.

The young police officer who was still energetic when carrying the body lowered his head, frowning and unwilling to look closely.

Wu Jun handed a trash can to the deceased's brother-in-law to avoid sudden changes in his mood, and said, "Nowadays, people eat without exercising, so their body fat percentage is high, and they have more fat..."

There seemed to be an element of apology in his tone, and the deceased's brother-in-law's expression became even more distorted as he listened.

Wu Jun shook his head and returned to the autopsy table, saying to Jiang Yuan who was separated by a body, "I'm not good at comforting people either. It would be great if we had a female forensic expert."

"Are female forensic experts more gentle?" When Jiang Yuan was in school, half of his classmates were female, but when they looked for jobs, most of them chose to take the civil service exam or interview for the forensic appraisal institute. The rest often chose the forensic department of the procuratorate as their first choice.

Wu Jun looked down at the incision on the deceased and helped Jiang Yuan pull it open, saying, "They are definitely better at talking than me. It's just that they may not be as strong when carrying the body."

Jiang Yuan didn't have time to speak and began to cut along the ribs with the scalpel, then lifted the sternum and began to cut along the back of the sternum, one cut at a time.Unlike a cautious doctor, the forensic's movements were less refined, with more force, causing the sound of cutting flesh to echo through the silent autopsy room. The victim's brother-in-law dared not even lift his head and wished to cover his ears.

"If you can't take it, go wait outside the autopsy room." Wu Jun couldn't force anyone to watch an autopsy and was disgusted by the smell of vomit from the family members.

The victim's brother-in-law took two steps, then hesitated. "There's no one outside, and I...I'm too scared..."

"You decide for yourself." Wu Jun's attention was focused on Jiang Yuan.

They worked together with great coordination, with Jiang Yuan performing the autopsy and Wu Jun assisting.

"One stab to the chest. There are scratches on the ribs, indicating a lot of force." Jiang Yuan opened the chest cavity and observed the situation inside, making a judgment.

Wu Jun nodded in agreement. "One fatal blow. If it's slightly off, it could hit the ribs..."

Jiang Yuan determined the fatal wound. After Wu Jun took photos, he flipped over the exposed chest muscle and found the skin wound on the other end, then continued taking pictures.

Then, Wu Jun handed Jiang Yuan a soup spoon and said, "Scoop out the blood in the chest cavity and weigh it."

Jiang Yuan took an ordinary ceramic soup spoon and scooped out the accumulated blood in the chest cavity bit by bit into a stainless steel basin. After scooping it out, he put the stainless steel basin on an electronic scale. The electronic scale was also non-specialized, in other words, it was an ordinary electronic scale that Wu Jun bought from the market. The entire process, if one didn't consider the corpse, was a scene that an ordinary person could completely accept.

"About 850 milliliters. Plus the blood left in the room...how much blood was in the room?" Jiang Yuan made a judgment while turning to ask Wu Jun.

"At least that much." Wu Jun spoke from experience.

Jiang Yuan said, "That adds up to about 1700 milliliters, enough to cause death. The cause of death was a sharp object piercing the aorta, leading to fatal blood loss."

"Mm." Wu Jun watched as Jiang Yuan figured out the chest cavity and then pointed to the black spots on the body, saying, "Estimate the time of death?"

"Probably 8 to 10 hours ago? So, the death occurred around four or five in the afternoon?" Jiang Yuan pressed the spots, which faded but could be restored, indicating that the spots had progressed to the second stage of diffusion. When combined with the body's temperature and other factors, he made a time judgment.

Determining the time of death could be difficult or easy. For example, with today's body, in a room at room temperature, the time of death was short, and it wouldn't be too difficult to determine using various methods. But if the time of death was longer, and the environmental temperature was more complex, determining the time of death would become a science.

The police officer who came with them was a young man sent by the second squadron. He listened to Wu Jun's words and quickly sent a message to the squadron leader.

"Remember to make it clear what the cause of death was." Wu Jun reminded, then turned to Jiang Yuan and said, "Continue."

Jiang Yuan made a "Mm" sound and silently continued to open the abdominal cavity and weigh the organs. As he was dissecting, a shiny lump fell out of the kidney.

Jiang Yuan had already touched this shiny lump once before.Last time, he received Seventeenth Uncle's legacy, a level 3 special egg fried rice.

To be honest, Jiang Yuan felt it was quite practical. Even in his generation, they wouldn't need to set up night stalls to earn money. Occasionally cooking for oneself was also a good skill.

And this time...

Jiang Yuan lightly touched the shiny ball and a prompt from the system flashed before his eyes:

Xue Ming's legacy: camping (LV2) - this is Xue Ming's favorite hobby and his best activity. Whenever he drives to a strange place, the thing Xue Ming wants to do most is to set up a tent and make a pot of ordinary tea. However, in most cases, driving is Xue Ming's job, and he can only imagine the pleasure of camping in his mind. After changing positions, Xue Ming's opportunities for camping have become even less. Xue Ming's best jobs are as follows: using various tools to ignite, using various tools to judge wind direction, using sanitary pads to stop bleeding, using various tools to fetch water, and using various tools to set up a tent...

Jiang Yuan smoothed Xue Ming's abdominal cavity with his hand as a way of expressing gratitude.

Turning his head, Jiang Yuan began to open the skull cavity of the deceased.

In theory, for a body with a clear cause of death, a forensic expert does not need to perform a full-body autopsy. Just like today's body, the cause of death is basically determined to be a ruptured aorta caused by a sharp weapon, resulting in fatal bleeding. Opening the chest and abdomen should be enough to complete the task.

However, Jiang Yuan was still a new forensic expert and followed the rules in his work.

Wu Jun also wanted him to exercise more, even if it meant spending a few more hours.

After opening the skull cavity and confirming that there was no cerebral hemorrhage or skull base injury, there was no need to slice the brain like foie gras.

Even so, the two of them spent a lot of time. When they came out of the autopsy room, it was already bright outside.

In a hurry, several squadrons also reported back with no progress, including the special hair found by Jiang Yuan in a special location, which could not be matched.

The atmosphere within the Criminal Investigation Brigade suddenly became tense.
