Dongcheng District, by the Pujiang River.

July 26th

In the morning, 6:40.

After the storm, the sky suddenly cleared up, and ten thousand Ge competed for the flow on the running Pujiang River. At this time, the East China Sea city is prosperous. The sun is like fire on top of the head, burning the earth mercilessly. The edge of the Pujiang River is like a steamer, and the rolling heat wave comes to our face.

The scene of the Crime Center is a dampproof dike. In front of it is the turbulent Pujiang River, and behind it is the lush South Garden and tide viewing platform. Countless dampproof piers stand on the dike, crisscross and subject to the scouring of the wave, which is inaccessible.

In the crevice of the damp proof pier, there is a man's body with his face facing down. Due to the scouring of the wave, the long flannel pajamas printed with pink letters on the man's body are almost half naked, exposing half of his butt. The skin and flesh are swollen and white due to the immersion of the river, so it is difficult to recognize the original appearance.

Comrades from the local Binjiang police station and the serious case detachment of the Dongcheng District Public Security Branch set up a cordon around the body. Over their heads, the propellers of three unmanned survey aircraft hummed and vibrated, monitoring the scene.

The staff of the on-site investigation team are wearing a unified three piece suit and are carrying out an all-round investigation under the scorching sun. Xu Jiajun and his assistant Xiao Xiao are carrying out a preliminary autopsy of the man's body. Wang Tao and his assistant Xiao Meng are carrying out an on-site trace investigation, laying partitions, posting signs, mapping on-site sketches, and the ponies in the image room are respectively checking the location, overview and key parts of the site, Take photos and videos.

An investigation team led by Chen Qiang is asking director Zheng of Binjiang police station and deputy leader Hou Qingshan of Dongcheng District public security branch about the situation next to the warning line.

"Who reported the case?"

Director Zheng was thin and thin, but his voice was loud and powerful: "at 5:02 a.m., a cargo gravel ship from Jinling to Gusu Kunshan, with the ship number cn20001872690 'Jinqiu', passed through this river area. When the sailors at the helm found a body on the shore, they called the police to us."

Chen Qiang looked up and saw that the Pujiang River merged into the Yangtze River at the end of the northeast. Countless oil tankers and cargo ships were flowing between the Yangtze River and the Pujiang River.

Hui Junhao and Hu qiufei took out their notebooks and carefully took notes. Only wan Ziliang left in a hurry in the morning and forgot to bring his notebooks, which seemed at a loss.

Chen Qiang seemed to feel a little dissatisfied and gouged him out. Wan Ziliang felt pressure. He took out his mobile phone, clicked on a note, typed and recorded the main points.

Chen Qiang then asked, "do you know the identity of the deceased?"

Director Zheng shook his head: "there was no identity certificate on the dead except clothes."

Hou Qingshan, with a resolute face, said: "we have conducted preliminary investigation. This dampproof dike is very remote, and few people come here, but I can't guarantee whether it's killing and dumping the body. After all, there was a case of body shredding here three years ago. Inspector Chen, you should remember?"

Chen Qiang nodded slightly. The case of dismembering the body three years ago, which was later also the case of his cracked hand, was a 23-year-old woman. The scene at that time is still fresh in my memory, so I feel more difficult.

It is urgent to identify the dead as soon as possible.

After simply mastering the on-site information, Chen Qiang pondered for a moment, turned around and told Hui Junhao and Hu qiufei: "brother Pao, xiaofeifei, you go around and see if there were any abnormalities nearby last night."

"Get it!" Hui Junhao shouted and took Hu qiufei away.

Chen Qiang took Wan Ziliang to the man's body and asked Xu Jiajun, who was undergoing a preliminary autopsy, "director Xu, what did you find?"

"Xiao Xiao, please sort out the inspection records." Xu Jiajun got up and said to Chen Qiang, "according to the characteristics of the deceased's scars, body spots and swelling degree, it is preliminarily judged that the deceased was male, and the death time was not long, but he was soaked for at least 6 hours."

"Push forward. The time to enter the water is from 1 a.m. to 2 a.m.? At that time, the storm is really the best time to commit a crime." Chen Qiang was thoughtful.

"Wrong, time has to be pushed forward." Wang Tao came over and said seriously while mapping the site sketch, "I inquired about the hydrological information of this river area for nearly three years. It shows that the tide rises at about 0:50 a.m. on the evening of July 25 every year, and continues to subside after six hours, that is, about 6:50, that is, our current time. According to Director Xu's judgment, the deceased died and was soaked in the river water at least before 0:50, and was affected by the tide. The location is also different There will be an offset, about 10 to 15 meters. Therefore, I have expanded the scope of investigation. "

Chen Qiang subconsciously looks at Wang Tao's assistant Xiao Meng and Xiao Fu. He sees that they are searching forward on the dam and meticulously looking for suspicious traces.

Xu Jiajun put up a finger and shook it left and right. "We should also consider the factors of wind and rain. The actual soaking time may be less than 6 hours. However, you should believe that there is only one specific time of death forever. After I transport the body back for autopsy and detect the contents of the stomach, there will be an accurate result."

While taking notes, Wan Ziliang remembered Cai Kun's saying that environment and weather are always the natural barriers to crime.

"What is the cause of death?" Chen Qiang stared at the man's body and asked.

"No mechanical trauma has been found for the time being, but the body has multiple comminuted fractures, as well as multiple minor abrasions and blood stasis." Xu Jiajun pointed to the head of the corpse. "The real cause of death is the fragmentation of the skull, the displacement and rupture of the internal organs due to pressure, and the death of a large area of internal bleeding, which is consistent with the characteristics of high falling death."

"Killing and throwing bodies?" Chen Qiang looks at the body of the unknown man.

Wang Tao put away the sketch of the scene, wiped off the hot sweat on his head and said, "it's not sure, so now there are two problems, one is whether the body came from the river or the shore, and the other is whether the dead entered the water before he died or after he died."

"Unidentified, unidentified, very tricky." Chen Qiang looked at Xu Jiajun, "director Xu, do you have a way to confirm?"

Xu Jiajun threw his mouth and said, "there is no mystery in the world that cannot be solved. I can only save this problem. When I go back to do a diatom experiment and detect the accumulated water in my lungs, I can judge whether I entered the water before I was alive or after I died. As for where it came from, it's not easy for me to judge."

Chen Qiang glanced at Wan Ziliang, confirmed that he had made notes, and then asked, "are there any other discoveries?"

"It's worthy of being a detective. It's sharp enough to see here." Xu Jiajun pointed to the male corpse's feet. "The soles of the two feet of the corpse are fuzzy, but the scars on the right foot are obviously more severe than that on the left foot. I checked that it should be caused by sand and stone friction, which proves that the deceased should have the behavior of wearing shoes and running for his life before he died, but the right foot was lost first. After a long time, the left foot's shoes were also lost."

Chen Qiang was shocked: "is there a murderer chasing him?"

"Besides, I found these things on the body. Look." Xu Jiajun took a plastic evidence bag from Xiao's hand, which contained broken fallen leaves, cyan weeds, dried branches and small pieces of mud.

Wan Ziliang recognized at a glance: "this is the last environment the deceased came into contact with?"

"Bingo, you're right," said Xu Jiajun triumphantly. "If you don't mention the dead branches and leaves, the grass must not be in the river. In this way, you can roughly judge the origin, right, brother Tao?"

Cement is poured near the dam, and the only place with grass is the south garden behind the dam.

Wang Tao looked up, and the end of the horizon was the Nanyuan tidal Pavilion, which was more than 20 meters high above the slope. That position was not only in line with the high falling death, but also the dam directly below, which was just 10 meters away from the location where the man's body was found.

"If the body came down from the tidal platform, there must be traces." Wang Tao called his assistant Xiao Fu, "Xiao Fu, go to the tidal platform and see if there are any suspicious traces."

After Xiao Fu left, Wang Tao greeted Xiao Meng and said, "Xiao Meng, come with me and focus on the area under the tidal platform."

Just a guess, Wang Tao made a decisive investment and confirmed it, which made Chen Qiang praise: "deputy director Wang is really tireless in his work."

Wan Ziliang thought of his notebook. His face was hot and ashamed. He secretly warned himself that there could be no next time.

Wang Tao has a cool day on his head. He steps on the hot ground and squats on the ground to search inch by inch. His sweat drops on the ground and rises a burst of mist. In the twinkling of an eye, he is evaporated. However, he is like a sense of taste, as if facing the carcass of a beautiful woman, careful, serious and greedy.

"Found it!"

Suddenly, Wang Tao exclaimed with joy. A beige button was impressively embedded on the honeycomb shaped ground washed by the wave. He carefully took it out with tweezers and observed it in the sun. He saw that the beige button was obviously squeezed and scratched except for the printing pattern.

He put the button into the evidence bag, returned to the body, handed it to Xu Jiajun and said, "director Xu, please see if this button is on the body."

Xu Jiajun took the evidence bag and compared the printed pattern on the buttons of the men's corpse pajamas. He said very firmly, "no mistake."

Wang Tao looked at the tidal platform again: "what I speculated was true. The body probably came down from the observation platform."

Xu Jiajun reminded: "brother Tao, I need to remind you that although there are extrusion marks on the buttons, if they are washed up by the tide, they will also leave such marks. You can't be too arbitrary. You should treat the problems objectively."

Wang Tao believes that the downward force of the public security college is different from that of the Chinese Public Security College. I believe that the downward force of the public security college is caused by the downward force of the public security college. I am sure that it is the criminal police college that makes you fall forward

Xu Jiajun was immediately unconvinced: "look, the bull temper is coming up again. You can't always make subjective assumptions. We have to talk about evidence and science."

Chen Qiang and Wan Ziliang are used to it and have no plans to fight.

"Bold assumptions and careful verification are also the core of technicians." Wang Tao said clearly, "it's not too late to make a conclusion until Xiaofu has surveyed the tidal platform."

Xu Jiajun bet: "what if there is no trace?"
