What's in the depths II

Chapter 35 The Sense of Ritual

At three o'clock in the morning in the research institute, there was only a bright light in the dissection room. Yunqian sat in the hall with two cups of coffee in front of him, one for himself and one for An Yan.

At this moment, even drugs can't save his drowsiness, I saw him propping his head with one hand, squinting at the moon outside the window, looking like he might fall asleep at any time.

The door of the research institute rang, and the sound of leather shoes sounded instantly.

A tall and slender woman walked in with her hands covering her mouth and yawning with a tired face.

Seeing the drowsy boy on the sofa, the woman was really startled and asked, "Why are you here?"

Yunqian woke up with a start, looked for her reputation, and saw that it was Lu Anqi, so she forced a smile:

"I just took over the case. Rather than accepting the case, it's better to say that I just witnessed a murder case and ran into your workaholic brother. I followed along by the way."

Lu Anqi smiled and shook her head: "You, just say what you have to say. You are evasive and annoying to watch, just like who doesn't know your little thoughts."

Yunqian waved his hand in distress: "Don't talk about me, why are you here?"

"Also, I was falling asleep when I was called by a call from the police station." As he spoke, he yawned again.

"It's the same people who have fallen in the end of the world." Yunqian couldn't help sighing.

Lu Anqi closed her eyes and said with a weary smile: "Who is the same person as you, you are voluntary, I was forced, okay?"

After all, she sighed and walked into the disinfection room with great reluctance.

In the past, Yunqian just thought that Miss Lu Anqi was pure and cold and arrogant. Who knew that after getting to know her well, she realized that not only was she not cold, but she also had a set of tricks when teasing others. Her mouth was like a machine gun. I can't stand it at all.

Yunqian yawned heavily, and began to doze off again looking at the cold light in the dissecting room.

The phone rang, and the dissatisfaction was awakened again. Yun Qian picked it up and scolded angrily: "If you make harassing calls again, I will call the police."

"You, aren't you a policeman?" The other party said to the point.

Yunqian thought, yes, and asked again: "Who are you?"

"Su Wenyu." The other party generously reported his family name.

"Oh, it turned out to be Comrade Xiao Su who was frightened into two hundred and five." Yunqian laughed, "Call me when you have time."

"Where are you now?" Su Wenyu automatically ignored Yunqian's ridicule.

"Forensic Medicine, what's wrong?"

"I will look for you."

"Don't tell me, it's as if we are very close, and it's so late, why don't you come to me when you don't sleep."

There was silence for a while at the other end of the sentence, and then he said in that forbearing tone with great reluctance: "I'm a little scared... I can't sleep by myself..."

The more you speak, the smaller your voice becomes.

Yun Qian wanted to punch the wall and laugh. A 26-year-old policeman who was about to enter middle age and graduated from the police academy was too scared to sleep alone because he saw a dead body.

"Don't you have any friends? Looking for me? Are you out of your mind?" Yun Qian laughed ruthlessly as he spoke.

There was another moment of silence over there, before slowly saying: "It's true... I don't have any friends, you know, too good looks often give people a sense of distance, so I don't have any friends either."

Yunqian smiled and shook his head: "Okay, okay, you are right, then come here."

"Wait for me, 10 minutes." Leaving behind such an ambiguous sentence, Su Wenyu hung up the phone first.

Su Wenyu is indeed a man of action. In just 8 minutes, he rushed from the apartment a few kilometers away to the research institute. He was still wearing a flamboyant bear pajamas. The most disgusting thing is that he even put his duck and duck pillows together brought it over.

"Wow, big brother, can you be more naughty." Yun Qian couldn't help sighing "tsk tsk".

It has been more than 20 years, and this is the first time he has seen this kind of man. Before, he had only seen his classmates from the police academy sleeping in a pile of socks that he had not washed for more than ten days. When he saw ducks and ducks hugging pillows today, he felt goosebumps all over his body due to the cold. pimple.

Su Wenyu also seemed to be very sleepy, hugged the duck duck pillow and hugged Yunqian, found a comfortable place to nest in and dreamed his big spring and autumn dream.

Yunqian scratched his head wearily, but he didn't have the strength to push him down anymore, his head tilted, and the two of them snored head to cheek.

The sky is a little bit fish-belly, and the birds jumped on the branches early to comb their fluffy feathers with short beaks, and from time to time they uttered one or two satisfied calls.

Subtle noises seemed to linger in the ear, like the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground, or like the sound of deliberately suppressed conversation.

Yun Qian only felt a pain in his neck, then he rubbed his neck and slowly opened his eyes.

What came into my eyes was a very cute and delicate face. The man's eyes were closed, his brows were furrowed, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his ruddy mouth was still pouted stubbornly, as if he had encountered something unimaginable in a dream.

Yunqian looked at it for a while, and then slapped him:

"Wake up, wake up, it's not over for you after you wake up."

The man murmured dissatisfiedly, and gradually opened his eyes.

"What did you hit me for?" Su Wenyu rubbed his cheeks and sat up, looking like a resentful little daughter-in-law.

Yun Qian ignored him, put on his coat, looked around, and then found that An Yan was sitting on the desk opposite him typing on the keyboard of the computer.

Yun Qian limped over with his sore and numb legs, leaned close to An Yan and looked at the autopsy report on the computer screen in front of him, and immediately widened his eyes in disbelief:

"An forensic doctor, you really didn't sleep all night, did you?"

An Yan covered his mouth and yawned, put the last full stop, and drank the last sip of coffee in the cup: "It's almost there, I'm going to sleep first."

Seeing that An Yan was about to leave, how could Yun Qian follow him immediately, "Then did you find any clues?"

An Yan looked really tired, his face was pale, his lips were bloodless, and he looked like he might faint on the ground at any time.

He held onto the table, managed to stabilize himself, turned on the photocopier, and spat out several reports with temperature.

Yunqian picked up a copy casually and looked at it.

Su Wenyu also came over wrapped in a sheet, and snatched the autopsy report from Yun Qian:

"You said the deceased died of an internal organ infection?"

"Yes, she died from septic shock. After the autopsy, it was found that all the organs in her body were in a state of pathological changes and infection. It was because the human body lost skin protection, which led to the loss of protection of muscles and nerves, and the infection caused death by bacteria and viruses invading the body." An Yan pointed out. One of the lines in the report reads, "Moreover, the skin on her body is not her own."

When Su Wenyu heard it, goosebumps arose:

"What kind of saying is that?"

"Don't you understand? She was skinned and then someone else's skin was sewn onto the dead body. However, the outer skin and muscles were infected, so she died on the spot just like what we saw."

Yunqian rolled his eyes.

"It's not death on the spot. Muscle-induced infection generally has a cycle, but the specific time depends on the amount of bacteria in the environment and the storage method, but it will take at least two weeks."

"Then how did you tell that the skin wasn't from the deceased?"

"There is a little mucus on the outer skin, and the smell should be formalin, but the specific ingredients need to be further tested, and the murderer seems to be a layman. There are many damages when peeling off the delicate places such as fingers and toes, which is incomplete. , and the size does not match the deceased himself."

"What about the identity of the deceased?"

"Judging from the wear and tear of the pubic symphysis and the second molars, the deceased was between 28 and 30 years old, not too old, and had given birth before, and there was no trace of being violated before death. It should be a normal birth after marriage. .”

Yunqian nodded: "Okay, I understand. Between the ages of 28 and 30, there has been a history of marriage and childbirth. I will check to see if there are any women who meet this characteristic who have been reported missing recently."

"Are there any other questions?" An Yan turned around and asked.

Yun Qian shook his head blankly: "Not yet."

"Then I'll catch up on sleep." An Yan picked up the coffee cup on the table and was about to leave.

The crisp sound of leather shoes kicking sounded from the corridor, one after another, and before they could react, a tall figure in a suit stepped into the doorway, followed by several police officers.

"Isn't it working time now? I don't know who gave the forensic doctor the special order to catch up on sleep during this time." The visitor said coldly, pressing in with a pressing air.
