Chapter 191 Beauty and Ugliness
Bone number 5 has been cooked.
Bai Sensen's skeleton, without a head, was placed on the first dissecting table.
Jiang Yuan asked: "Is No. 1 put away?"
"Yes, because the dissecting table is not enough, No. 1 has finished again..." the forensic assistant explained quickly.
It is naturally impossible to finish it.
There is a lot of information that can be inferred from the corpse, and there are more ways to do it. However, some things are also random, just like the eight solutions to a problem, it is easy to fall into a fixed mindset.
The conditions in the autopsy room are like this. Four autopsy tables are already very large, and it is impossible for the police station to regard the conditions of a murder case with six corpses as a regular configuration.
Jiang Yuan asked: "How is the analysis on No. 5?"
"I just laid it out, there is no conclusion." The forensic assistant replied.
In fact, for ordinary forensic doctors, it would take a while to lay out the bones step by step. Everyone was so busy and tired that there was no time for further analysis.
Jiang Yuan nodded and looked at it for himself, adjusting the position of the bones to make them look better.
Beauty is still very important. People's strongest sense is vision, and the development of thinking is also centered on vision.
For example, the beginning of astronomy, the beginning of optics, and the beginning of the AV industry are all the same.
Those famous mathematical formulas, such as Archimedes' line, Descartes' line, and Jacob's line, are also famous for their beauty.
The key to solving some geometric problems is to draw auxiliary lines.
From this, it is also important to see whether a corpse is beautiful or not.
Moreover, don’t look at some people who were ugly in life, were extremely ugly in their actions, and were bad to the core, but if you take off their bones and make them more beautiful, they will be completely transformed.
As the saying goes, there are some special people, as long as you give them a chance, they will come out of their shells.
"Just remember it." Jiang Yuan played with the bones for a while, then measured them with a ruler, and then began to output the results.
The most basic judgment can still be made very quickly.
The forensic assistant took off his gloves, washed them again, then changed his gloves and got ready with a pen.
"female."
"Height 160cm."
"Age...about 18 years old."
Jiang Yuan stated the most important judgment points in a few words.
The forensic assistant was taking notes, and at the end he paused and said in surprise: "So young?"
"Well, the family should pay more attention to the disappearance of an 18-year-old girl." Jiang Yuan said, "Wait a moment, let me confirm the specific age."
According to the technology of forensic anthropology, many bones of the human body can be judged in various ways. But there are always some bones that are more advantageous in making certain types of judgments.
Long bones, for example, are particularly useful for judging height. The accuracy is high and the difficulty is low. Ordinary forensic doctors can produce accurate results.
The lumbar spine is different. You can also infer height, but the accuracy is lower, and the difficulty is beyond the level of a newcomer.
Jiang Yuan judged very quickly just now. He judged the gender based on the pelvis and the age based on the pubic symphysis.
The pelvis can be said to be the treasured bone of mankind.
Using the pelvis to determine gender has many characteristic points, ranging from the shape of the pelvis to the angle of the pubic arch, which can be used to distinguish between men and women.
Families with the conditions can take a male pelvis and a female pelvis for comparison. It is easy to see that the male pelvis is generally tall and narrow, with the upper part larger and the lower part smaller. The female pelvis is low and wide, and the pelvic cavity is short, wide, and cylindrical...
If that doesn't work, you can also take an x-ray of the male pelvis and an x-ray of the female pelvis for comparison. But as a result, it lacks a sense of three-dimensionality and depth.
The accuracy of determining age based on the pubic symphysis is also very high, and it is also the most important way to determine age.
The rougher the pubic symphysis surface, the younger the person is, and the smoother the surface, the older the person is.
However, as it is said that it is difficult to establish evidence alone, Jiang Yuan turned over the bones for a while, then turned around and said: "18 years old is no problem."
"Okay." The forensic assistant responded and drew another circle.
"The cause of death may be stabbing to death." Jiang Yuan said again, which was a bit unexpected.
The forensic assistant asked curiously: "How did you judge?"
"The scars on the ribs should be stab marks. The saw was used to dismember the body."
As Jiang Yuan spoke, the four forensic doctors outside also finished their meals and returned one after another.
Jiang Yuan took a look and found that the expressions of the four of them were not very good.
"Isn't it delicious?" Jiang Yuan asked with concern. No matter what, it was him who made the noodles.
Thinking about it now, the big bone soup noodles may not be as delicious as the big bone soup noodles. At that time, maybe I should...
"I tore off the outer tape." Forensic doctor Xiaozhuang honestly admitted his mistake.
Lao Ye walked in with a look of disgust on his face and said, "Just tear it up, and read it out after tearing it up. I ended up drinking half of the soup."
"Sorry, sorry. I just saw a plastic head there and wanted to pull it off." Xiaozhuang looked helpless. He didn't expect that, "Did you tell me about stabbing with a knife or something?" Lao Ye took the initiative to end the topic.
"Well, there are cut marks on the third and fourth ribs." Jiang Yuan picked up the bones and turned them over.
Because they were all severely putrefied corpses fished out of the reservoir, it was difficult to identify the corpses before they were cooked. After cooking, the surface condition of the bones was also very complicated.
The cut marks Jiang Yuan found were very small, measuring only millimeters. They were probably where the murderer accidentally touched the knife.
However, despite the small size of the cut marks, there is a lot that can be read from them.
For example, the murderer's knife skills will be downgraded, and his status may not be related to jobs such as doctor or butcher. Otherwise, you won't make such a mistake.
The mood of several forensic doctors immediately improved a lot, and they all came up to look at the ribs.
The two young forensic doctors were still making vague gestures on their chests.
"One more." Jiang Yuan continued to examine the bones and added: "Corpse No. 5 probably studied ballet for a long time during his lifetime."
Forensic doctor Ye was stunned for a moment, and quickly looked at the feet of the corpse before he was surprised: "So many bones are missing?"
"It may have been chopped off." Jiang Yuangang had already seen it and said, "The murderer should also have found the ballet feet, and he probably disposed of them together with the head."
After learning ballet to a deeper level, you start to wear ballet shoes, which can easily cause ballet feet and deform your feet.
According to Jiang Yuan's analysis, the ballet feet of corpse No. 5 may not have been serious enough to affect the bones, but the murderer could not see the bones, only the deformed feet of the corpse, making it easy to identify. It was probably chopped off in advance.
However, the traces left behind by practicing ballet are far more than just ballet feet.
The murderer chopped off his feet, which reminded Jiang Yuan.
18 years old, studied ballet, and with a missing person report, it was easy to determine the source of the body.
