Chapter 102 Protecting the Site
A group of people drove into the crime scene, the "Hell Pavilion" of Mihua Art Museum.
In the exhibition hall, the deceased boss Zhenzhong still maintained the same appearance as when he was first discovered:
His body was suspended in the air, his feet were off the ground, and his whole body was pinned tightly to the wall by a sharp Western long sword.
The sword pierced his throat.
The blood spurting from the carotid artery stained the entire wall behind him.
This bloody, cruel, terrifying, bizarre, and "artistic" scene attracted a large number of citizens who originally came to visit the art museum to gather here.
Director Ochiai of the Miwa Art Museum and several staff members worked hard to maintain order, but the scene still seemed to be chaotic and noisy.
"This" Lin Xinyi couldn't help but frown.
Mao Lilan responded quickly and contacted the courses she had learned during the day. She understood Lin Xinyi's thoughts:
"Before the criminal investigators arrived, a large number of unrelated persons had entered the scene."
"There are many traces and doubtful physical evidence at this kind of scene. We should be more careful to confirm the identity of the traces and the authenticity of the physical evidence, right?"
"Yeah." Lin Xin nodded.
Mao Lilan has a good understanding, but so far, this understanding has only been expressed in endorsements.
If you want to truly become a master of criminal investigation, you must undergo practical training.
Thinking of this, he stopped procrastinating and directly arranged the division of labor for this "practical training":
"The on-site protection team is responsible for sealing off the scene and removing irrelevant personnel."
"The on-site interview team will find the reporter, witnesses and museum staff, and make on-site investigation records."
"Mobile supplementary team, there are cameras in this exhibition hall. You go and check the surveillance video of this exhibition hall."
"On-site investigation team, come to me, and I will divide the investigation areas for each of you."
Lin Xinyi arranged it in an orderly manner.
And he only looks skilled on the surface, but in fact he is a complete novice.
After all, he has never done this before as the on-site commander.
With his previous level and ability, to be honest, he was not quite qualified to be the commander-in-chief.
But in this world where the police level is extremely low, a small character like Lin Xinyi has become an expert.
Alas, although it feels good to direct people, it still feels like before. It feels more worry-free to have seniors leading the team and working with professionals.
Lin Xinyi sighed slightly in his heart.
He followed the example of an old-timer and arranged the division of labor, then calmed down his emotions and looked at his students:
"Miss Maori, please follow the on-site protection team first."
"Delimit the protection area, cordon off the scene, and invite all irrelevant personnel outside the cordon."
"After the on-site protection is completed, we will go in to investigate."
These tasks are not too difficult, but doing them again will help Mao Lilan master the overall criminal investigation process.
Although the job of a medical examiner is only to conduct autopsy - strictly speaking, the medical examiner is actually a tool that can provide autopsy reports, and does not need to participate in the entire investigation of the case.
However, in actual work, due to limited police resources, insufficient manpower, and the collective and democratic centralized approach to handling cases,
In fact, forensic scientists are often involved in all aspects of the case, even in the specific reasoning and investigation process.
Over time, Lin Xinyi also learned trace detection, reasoning, and criminal profiling, and became an all-round player.
Nowadays, it is rare to meet a good student with a proactive attitude and serious study. Lin Xinyi also wants to train her into such an all-round forensic doctor.
The more she knows, the less pressure Lin Xinyi will have at work in the future.
"By the way, let everyone put on shoe covers and hair masks as soon as possible."
"The scene that has been disturbed cannot be polluted by us anymore."
Lin Xinyi added specifically.
The criminal investigation equipment he requested for the Forensics Section to purchase has not yet arrived, but at least some of the most common equipment will be ready soon.
In the past, the police only wore gloves when inspecting the scene, but now that Lin Xinyi was ready to take the role of the management officer seriously, he simply made the rules stricter.
Before entering a crime scene, your mouth and nose must be covered with a mask, your hair must be wrapped in a hair mask, and your shoes must be covered with shoe covers.
If you are wearing trousers, the trouser legs must also be tucked into socks.
This is to prevent the survey personnel's own spit, hair, footprints and sweat from contaminating the site, and to minimize the risk of site damage as much as possible.
"Okay, Mr. Lin, I understand."
Mao Lilan nodded and quickly took action together with the police officers of the on-site protection team.
They put on their equipment, confirmed the scope of the survey together, set up a blockade, and invited the irrelevant personnel out one by one.
Some people liked to watch the excitement and stayed away. After Mao Lilan smiled and performed a special function of beating out the strong wind with bare hands, they left obediently.
As expected of Miss Mao Lilan.
She has always been so efficient and professional in sealing off the scene.
Lin Xinyi was sighing in his heart.
Mao Lilan, on the other hand, worked very seriously and meticulously to protect the site to the last step:
"Conan, you have to get out too."
"Hey, hey?" Conan's expression froze.
Yes, this primary school student also came.
He is now like Xiaolan's follower. Wherever Xiaolan goes, he will follow her closely.
Lin Xinyi actually didn't agree with him coming.
After all, Conan's identity is sensitive. If possible, it would be best not to appear at the scene of a murder that does not match his "age".
But it's okay if Lin Xinyi doesn't object.
Conan seemed to have heard that the tiger was asking his sheep to go for a walk, and he became even more uneasy and insisted on following him.
And when he followed him to the scene and saw the mysterious death of the body, he instinctively entered the state of concentration like a famous detective.
However, this time, Conan's "Detective Mode" was interrupted just after he started.
It was his sister Xiaolan who interrupted him:
"How could a child wander around such an important crime scene?"
"Conan, you should go somewhere else to play first!"
"I don't want it!" Conan was stunned for a moment, then winked and started coquettishly: "I also want to be with Sister Xiaolan, look at Lin Xinyi, Brother Xinyi is investigating the case!"
"No!" Mao Lilan refused decisively.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with Conan running around the crime scene before. Anyway, as long as the kid wasn't afraid of corpses.
But now, after learning the basic knowledge of site survey, Mao Lilan has attached great importance to the protection of the site.
Every trace in the scene may be an important clue to solving the case. How can this be done by letting a naughty kid wander around in it?
"Investigating crimes is a matter for adults, children should not get involved."
Saying that, Conan couldn't help but act coquettishly again.
Mao Lilan picked him up and sent him out directly.
"No!" Conan was dancing and struggling in the air.
"Be obedient, Conan!"
"Sister Xiaolan, I have serious things to do, so I can't stay with you all the time."
"If you always disobey, you will make the adults angry."
Thinking of Conan's "bad boy" behavior that he had been clinging to since she went to the training in the morning, she slightly emphasized her tone.
"I" Conan was speechless.
Mao Lilan placed Conan outside the blockade and showed a warm smile:
"It'll be nice if your brother Shinichi and I are here. You can play by yourself first."
"Be good I will take you home after the case is solved."
She bent down and touched Conan's big head, then left him behind and turned towards the center of the scene.
""Conan's expression was extremely subtle.
The scene just now always felt inexplicably familiar to him.
Of course he was familiar with it - because every time he encountered a murder case, this was how he left Xiaolan behind.
Now Xiaolan at least comforted him a few words, but in the past, Detective Kudo often just walked away without looking back.
So this is how Xiaolan usually feels?
Conan felt an inexplicable feeling of deep guilt in his heart.
It seems that he really took the case too seriously before, so serious that he even ignored the people he cherished most.
To change, I have to make changes.
Conan lowered his head and reflected on his past mistakes with a heavy heart.
It was extremely rare that at the scene of the murder, he didn't even think about the murder.
He thought about it for a long time, and then
"Report, Forest Management Officer!"
After carefully dividing their respective investigation areas according to the scientific division of labor, the police officers of the on-site investigation team finally stopped missing:
“We found ballpoint pens at the scene!”
"We found a note here that is suspected to be written by the deceased!"
"What?!" Conan reacted faster than all the police present.
Just like a smoker smelling smoke or an alcoholic smelling wine, Conan couldn't help but raise his head:
"Ballpoint pen? Note?"
"What's written on the note?!"
