Someone has a crush on Forensic Gu

Chapter 37 The Man Who Lives in the Corner

"Why is Li Meng not in shape these days?"

On the rooftop, Xiao Ze stood beside Wang Yue with an unlit cigarette between his fingers. Remembering that Wang Yue and Li Meng had a relatively good relationship, he asked Li Meng about his recent situation while smoking a cigarette.

"Captain, you can also see that something happened at Li Meng's family. His father was found to have stomach cancer, and it was already in the middle and late stages when he was found out. I heard him call the hospital a few days ago. I heard that just yesterday Hospitalized, ready for surgery."

While listening, Xiao Ze lit the cigarette in his hand with a lighter, and took a deep puff: "I remember that Li Meng is the only child in the family, right?"

Wang Yue nodded: "Well, the five generations of the family are single."

"It costs a lot of money to treat this disease," Xiao Ze said. "People in our organization bureau donate money, and we can help a little."

Wang Yue sighed: "I have a classmate whose father also got cancer. In order to cure the disease, the family was poor and sold the house and brought the money. His father has passed away for two years, and he is still repaying the loan.. …”

Xiao Ze: "It's not easy..."

At lunch time, Gu Yuan turned on his mobile phone and found a message in the group calling for donations, with a link attached below. Gu Yuan went in to check, and found that it was a charity fundraising organized by a well-known organization.

After clicking in, the first thing I saw was a photo of a 50-year-old man lying on a hospital bed. The oxygen mask on the man's mouth and nose was pulled away, revealing a bloodless face.

Attached below is a long list of identifications and a narrative of the whole thing:

"Hello, everyone. My name is Li Meng. I am a criminal policeman from the Yanhai City Public Security Bureau. The person in the photo is my father, Li Jun. A few days ago, he was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer..."

There are many comments below.

Jianghu: [The police have worked hard to protect the people, I am willing to do my little bit...]

Yilian Youmeng: [It's a real person, Li Jun is my neighbor...]

The Golden Years: [Hope to overcome the disease...]

Gu Yuan clicked on the "donate" link with his fingers, and then entered a series of five-digit numbers. After making the donation, he put down his phone and continued to eat.

After a while, Li Meng sent a text message: [Actually, there is no need to donate so much, I can still last for a while after selling the house in my hometown. 】

Gu Yuan ignored him and put the phone in his pocket. After a while, he took out the phone again and replied two words: [Worry. 】

Li Meng: [I'm just really sorry...]

Gu Yuan didn't reply to him again.

When he was about to get off work, Li Meng sent another text message: [I want to invite you and Teacher Mo to dinner tonight, please come, otherwise I won't be able to sleep at night! 】

Gu Yuan suddenly remembered the year when Ms. Tang Yuan died. At that time, he had just entered junior high school and learned that his mother had suffered from liver cancer. .

But the medical expenses were too high, and the family's money was quickly spent. He braved the heavy rain and knocked on the door of his relatives from house to house. Everyone knew that the money was borrowed and basically never returned. Junior high school students have expectations.

Gu Yuan went home holding the drenched 500 yuan, seeing his mother lying on the bed with a yellowish complexion, he suddenly felt that he was so useless.

The next day, when he came back from the construction site, he opened the door and saw Tang Yuan's hanged body...

When Li Meng arrived at the barbecue restaurant he had made an appointment with, he ordered a three-person set meal first. If he didn't finish his meal, he could order more later. The store first served a few appetizers.

He took a photo and sent it to Gu Yuan.

Li Meng: [I'm already in the store. 】

The location address of a barbecue restaurant is attached on the back.

Li Meng started a group chat, in which there were only Gu Yuan, Mo Lin and him. He sent a voice message: "The dishes are not ready yet, you can take your time..."

Before he finished speaking, there was an explosion, the glass was shattered, and screams sounded, and then Li Meng felt overwhelming tinnitus...

All the pictures are played in slow motion, and a wave of heat is coming from the gate!

Li Meng's brain seemed to explode. Before he could react, the shattered glass had already slid across his face...

The phone hit the tiled floor, the screen cracked like a spider's web.

Li Meng moved slowly and bent down to pick up the phone.

At this moment, Mo Lin's phone suddenly lit up, and Li Meng picked it up in a daze.

"Li Meng, are you okay, are you injured?"

"I'm fine, but there seems to be an explosion just now..."

"Fire engines and police cars have arrived at the scene one after another. The number of casualties at the scene is being counted. The police have intervened in the investigation. Our reporters will continue to follow up and report for you..."

The emergency room was silently broadcasting the explosion an hour ago, and the people injured at the scene were transferred to the emergency department of a nearby hospital one after another.

A huge crater was blown out of the ground of a four-story building at No. 44 Yumi Lane.

The fire at the scene had been extinguished, the water on the fourth floor dripped down along the broken eaves and broken walls, and the air was filled with a scorched smell. Gu Yuan squatted in front of a charred corpse, using a rubber gloves Finger flipped through the only corpse at the scene.

The clothes on the corpse had been burned clean, and the skin had been burnt into a carbonized color. The carbonized palm was in the shape of a fist. Because the fire was strong enough after the explosion, the soft tissue in the palm would be heated and contracted, finally showing a fist shape. .

However, based on this information, it cannot be judged that people were burned to death, because a large amount of evidence shows that this kind of fist-like shape will also appear in cremated corpses after death.

Gu Yuan moved the carbonized lips of the deceased, and a piece of carbonized skin fell from it. The sound was very similar to the sound heard when removing a roasted sweet potato.

"The mouth looks very clean. This person was dead before the explosion." Gu Yuan stood up: "The body has to be carried back for autopsy."

Another criminal case keeps the police busy...

Li Meng's right cheek near the cheekbone was scratched by shards of glass, the bleeding had stopped, the wound was not very deep, Gu Yuan took Li Meng to the street to buy disinfectant and gauze, and treated the wound briefly: "The wound is very shallow and will not leave a scar."

Li Meng covered his face with a frustrated expression: "I'm sorry, I was going to invite you out for dinner, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing...the meal didn't go well..."

Gu Yuan: "It's just a meal."

Li Mengxin said: This is not a matter of a meal......

"What are you doing here?"

Mo Lin walked into the pharmacy and stared at Li Meng for a second: "Are you injured? Who bandaged you?"

"Small injury, it doesn't matter, Gu Yuan has already helped me treat the wound!"

Mo Lin glanced at Gu Yuan with complicated eyes: "It's really ingenious..." After speaking, he took out the car keys: "Let's go, I'm here to pick you up."

Gu Yuan: "Is there no one in the bureau?"

"Everyone is busy now, and I'm the only one idle, so you have no choice."

"I just dissected the body..."

Just as Gu Yuan was about to say, before he even took a shower, he saw a police car parked outside the pharmacy.

Mo Lin stood in front of the police car, smiling extremely proudly: "I drove the police car over, let's get in the car!"

The three of them returned to the police station. Gu Yuan, who had put on his autopsy suit, only showed a pair of eyes, while Mo Lin sat on a round stool not far from the dissecting table, with his arms crossed, looking at the person who was meticulously dissecting the corpse.

The air was filled with the smell of barbecue. Standing beside him, Li Meng's expression was not very good. He remembered the barbecue that he saw in Yumi Lane today.

He doesn't think he'll have another roast for at least three months.

After Gu Yuan used tweezers to pinch away the scorched scalp bit by bit, he found the shattered skull.

It is said in the book that people who are burned to death are often accompanied by the phenomenon of skull cracking, the embrittlement of the skull after being burned, and the expansion of brain tissue. These two reasons jointly cause this phenomenon.

The fracture line where the skull cracks, very much like the cracks in the shell of an egg when it cracks when you boil it.

Therefore, the fracture line at this time should be linear, and the skull of this corpse showed a comminuted fracture, and there was an obvious indentation, which should have been caused by a blunt instrument blow.

"There was a blunt trauma to the head, a comminuted fracture of the occipital bone, and severe bleeding under the skin. It should have been a blow in front of him. If he suffered such a blow, he would be unconscious immediately even if he didn't die on the spot."

Gu Yuan moved the mandible to observe the condition of the deceased's mouth. He shook the flashlight: "There is no foreign matter inside the soot in the mouth. Judging from the degree of wear of the deceased's teeth, the age should be around 55 years old, and the deceased There is a habit of grinding teeth for a long time, and there may be mental pressure."

In order to clarify the cause of death of the deceased, Gu Yuan decided to "pull out the tongue" (that is, take out the tongue from the neck of the deceased, together with the trachea and lungs), so that the entire airway of the deceased can be completely freed, which is very helpful for determining the cause of death. very important.

Cut the skin along the jawline and cut off the neck muscles, make an incision from the neck to reach in, and pull out the deceased's tongue together with the posterior pharyngeal wall through the incision in the neck.

The tongue, the back wall of the pharynx, the trachea, and the lungs connected to the trachea were freed from the chest by Gu Yuan. He put this string of body structures emitting a special smell on a tray, and then carefully observed that it looked like a large Food scene!

"The entire airway is clean, without traces of soot and smoke."

Mo Lin stood beside him, rubbed his nose, then coughed twice, without speaking.

Li Meng's face was pale, and he took the photo with trembling fingers.

Gu Yuan searched for a long time in the abdomen of the deceased, and found that the body seemed to be missing a part.

After repeated confirmation, Gu Yuan said with great certainty: "The deceased has no stomach."

"No stomach? Then how does he eat?" Li Meng asked in surprise.

"There are traces of surgery at the junction of the esophagus and the small intestine. The deceased had undergone a total gastrectomy before his death."

Li Meng is no stranger to this term, because the doctor only communicated with him yesterday that his father may need a total gastrectomy in this situation.

"Gastric cancer, or serious stomach diseases, may require gastric resection." Gu Yuan said.
