In the autopsy room of the Public Security Bureau, Xiao Cong took out all the bones found in the Donglangshan courtyard, and carefully placed them on the autopsy table.

This pile of corpses was buried by the cesspool, and the sewage from the cesspool polluted the surrounding land with a foul stench, and the bones also had a strong sour smell.

Although Qiu Lan and Xiao Cong were wearing masks and other protective equipment, the smell still penetrated their nostrils, and there was a wave of upheaval in their stomachs, and their hearts couldn't help but feel hairy.

"Doctor Qiu." Xiao Cong held his breath, breathing with slightly parted lips, "A total of two hundred and seven bones are here."

After finishing his sentence, he coughed softly twice, choking tears in his eyes.

"Well, two hundred and seven bones, one more than normal adult bones." Qiu Lan raised her eyebrows, put on gloves, and picked up the skull on the stage, "Let's put the bones together first, let's see What the hell is going on with that much?"

Qiu Lan carefully examined the skull in her hand, and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so she placed it on the end of the autopsy table.

In the next hour, she carefully inspected each bone, noted the details above, and then placed each bone in its original position according to the body structure of the human body.

The corpse was quickly and completely presented on the corpse table.

"Judging from the length of the humerus, this is a female corpse." Qiu Lan supported the edge of the corpse table with her hands, leaned over to stare at the skeleton, and muttered in a low voice, while Xiao Cong next to her was recording her life with a notebook. test result.

"Because this corpse was excavated from the side of the septic tank, the situation of the septic tank is very complicated, and there are many factors that affect the corruption of the corpse, so we can't judge the time of death for the time being. We have to wait for the bone to be tested in the laboratory to analyze the bone tissue. Only by knowing the ingredients can we be sure." She frowned and spoke calmly.

After the analysis, Qiu Lan stood up slowly, with a trace of surprise in her eyes, "No obvious fatal injuries were found on the bones, and there was a fracture in the left upper arm, but it has healed and there is nothing suspicious. The cause of death cannot be speculated for the time being."

"However, after putting the corpses together, I found that there was an extra bone among all the bones found in the yard." Qiu Lan picked up a small piece of bone next to the skeleton and stared at it indifferently.

"It has been determined that this severed bone is a human phalanx with a length of about two centimeters. It is preliminarily estimated to be the first amputated finger of an adult's little finger." She glanced at the complete skeleton on the corpse table, lowered her eyes, and fixed her gaze on palm.

"However, the palms of the deceased's corpse are assembled completely, and there is no sign of polydactyly. It should not belong to the deceased."

Suddenly, Qiu Lan remembered that the suspect Zeng Qipeng had broken off the first segment of his little finger, so it was probably his severed finger.

"Xiao Cong, try to extract bone marrow from the bone, and then submit the bone marrow sample to the forensics department. The bone sample will be compared with the girl's DNA to determine the identity, and the severed finger will be compared with Zeng Qipeng's. I guess it belongs to him."

After checking the remains of the cesspool, it was already dark outside, and the pointer on the watch pointed to eight o'clock, and the city's neon lights illuminated the whole city.

In the dissection room, Qiu Lan cleaned and disinfected the entire room and the corpse dissection table, but the sour smell of the bones was still in the room and did not dissipate. The smell gradually faded away.

The case has progressed to this point, and all the truths are slowly surfacing. As long as the autopsy results are out tonight, many questions will be answered.

But how did the deceased die?
Because only a wreck remains of the female corpse, all the epidermis, fat, and internal organs have been decomposed, and the skeleton has no obvious lethal injuries, so there is no way to determine the cause of death of the deceased.

Qiu Lan, who was leaning on the back of the chair, gently closed her eyes, and her brows moved involuntarily.

Suddenly, she remembered the situation in the hospital today. Zeng Qipeng's first reaction after seeing the damaged puppet was to pinch the female nurse.

Then if the female corpse was killed by him, the biggest cause of death was suffocation.Death by suffocation will not leave any traces on the bones, and naturally it will not be discovered by anyone.

At this moment, there was a clear knock on the door of the anatomy room.

"Please come in." Qiu Lan dragged her tired body to stand up, her eyes swept towards the direction of the door.

After finishing the words, the person outside gently opened the door, and a pungent and disgusting smell mixed with the faint fragrance of shea nuts entered his nose.

This complex and unpleasant smell caused his heart to constrict suddenly, and his brows were wrinkled.

"Qiu, Doctor Qiu." Xu Chengyan covered his mouth and nose and coughed twice, with an embarrassed expression on his face, "I guessed that you hadn't left yet, so I came here to ask you if you want to have dinner together, Expert Cao, Henry Mo and others My colleagues in the serious crime team, we will go together."

"There's a lot of work today, and everyone hasn't left so late." Qiu Lan walked to the door with small steps, and gently closed the door of the dissection room to stop the smell.

"Yes, we found the boyfriend of the female victim in the rape and murder case. He is really suspicious. We have been interrogating him until now." Xu Chengyan frowned and pursed his thin lips. There are few evidences, and the forensics department is also working overtime, we just met downstairs in the police station, and we made an appointment to have dinner together."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Chengyan lowered his eyes, a little embarrassed, "The forensic department and the serious crime team are all ready, and the forensic department is missing, so everyone asked me to come up and ask you."

In fact, it wasn't everyone, but the little clever Peipei saw that the light in the planing room was still on, so he specially suggested that everyone have a meal together, and then called Qiu Lan.

She was creating opportunities for her boss.

"Since everyone is already here, I will naturally not miss everyone's interest." Qiu Lan raised her hand and looked at the exquisite watch in her hand, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "But now, it's not for dinner, it's for dinner." Night snack."

"Okay, Officer Xu, please wait for me for a few minutes, and I'll go change my clothes." She raised the corners of her mouth and showed a faint smile.

Five minutes later, in the parking lot of the police station, Qiu Lan and Xu Chengyan walked out of the elevator under everyone's attention.

Peipei, who was leaning in front of the car, looked at the two people in front of him, and lightly pressed his elbow on the top of the small strip, "Look, our boss and Dr. Qiu are both talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven."

Listening to her words, Xiao Tiao also looked at them with interest, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "It's true, Peipei, why don't you usually see that you have such a good vision."

"Our boss is handsome and extremely brave, and Dr. Qiu is beautiful, generous, gentle and considerate. He is really good." He propped his chin with one hand, and stared at the two people who were walking towards him, not knowing With the look in his eyes, he might even think that he is Qiu Lan's little fanboy.

"What are you looking at?" Xu Chengyan patted Xiaotiao's shoulder lightly, full of doubts.

Xiao Tiao was too patronizing and nympho just now, and didn't see the two people walking in at all, so he shivered in fright, "No, it's nothing."

"Stinky boy." Xu Chengyan frowned, looking at his sneaky appearance, with a smile on his lips.

Two minutes later, the three major departments of the police station left the parking lot in a mighty car and headed for the city center.
