"What's the specific situation?"
Lin Can put on the gloves that Ma Guozhen handed over and crossed the cordon to the scene.
"Yesterday evening, the nearby police station received a call from a citizen named Liu Guanghui, claiming that a bag of broken bones was found in this trash can. It looked like human bones.”
"The comrades from the police station immediately came to the scene and also saw this bag of broken bones."”
"Although their experience told them that this was definitely not an animal skeleton, in order to ensure the rigor of their work, they took away the garbage bag containing the broken bones and handed it to the appraisal center for identification. They also sealed off the market as soon as possible.”
"After a few hours of DNA testing, the bag of broken bones was indeed human bones and had been fried and cooked. This is an extremely serious murder case.”
" There weren't many bones in that bag," Ma Guozhen said." I think the murderer might have divided the bones into many bags and thrown them in different places. To make sure that we didn't miss any clues, I led my team here before dawn and have been investigating this group of trash cans.”
Hearing this, Lin Can looked at the dozen or so trash cans beside him. They were all filled with trash.
The police officers took out all the garbage bags one by one and opened them. All kinds of domestic garbage and rotten dishes and meat emitted a pungent smell.
"Where is that bag of broken bones?"
Lin Can asked.
"He's still in the appraisal center."
"I'll get someone to show it to you when we get back to the police station later," Ma Guozhen said.”
Lin Can nodded and continued asking,""Did you find anything else at the scene?"
"We found the same bag of broken bones in the leftmost trash can.”
Ma Guozhen called out to the police officer beside him. The police officer immediately brought an evidence bag to the two of them.
"However, we can't be sure if these are human bones or if they are the bones of the same victim.”
Ma Guozhen opened the evidence bag and spread the broken bones on the mat." We're going to send these things to the forensic doctor later. The specific results will have to wait for the DNA test results."”
"A DNA test will take at least half a day. It's a waste of time just to confirm if these things are human bones.”
Lin Can glanced at the broken bones on the ground. These broken bones were evenly cut into pieces, and the surface of each piece was charred black. This was indeed the mark of being fried.
He directly picked up a piece of bone on the ground and carefully observed it.
A few seconds later, Lin Can slowly said,"These bones are indeed human bones, and this bag of bones is basically a human skull and chest bone.”
"How do you judge?"
Ma Guozhen said in surprise.
"There is a clear difference between a human skull and an animal skull.”
Lin Can picked up the other broken bones on the ground and said,""Look at the cross-sections of these skulls. The internal and external bone plates are thin, which is a typical diploide-type structure. The internal and external bone plates of the animal's skull are thicker, and the diploide-type structure is not developed.”
"In addition, there are concave strip-like impressions on the inner plates of these skulls, which are usually very smooth and dense in animals.”
Lin Can pointed at the other bones and said,""And these few pieces of the humerus can also explain the problem. The handle of the human humerus is relatively more developed, while the body and xiphoid process of the humerus are not developed. These are the differences between the humerus of humans and the humerus of animals.”
"Therefore, we can now completely determine that this bag of broken bones belongs to human bones.”
"Of course, we still have to do a DNA test, but if we confirm that these are human bones in advance, it will be easier for us to carry out our work in a more timely manner."”
Hearing this, Ma Guozhen looked at Lin Can in a daze." You know forensic knowledge too?”
"As a detective, other than the most basic reasoning and analysis skills, you must be very proficient in forensic science, psychology, and so on.”
"Of course, this knowledge will be compulsory when you are in the police academy, but the police force is more particular about specialization, and I am used to learning every knowledge to the extreme."”
"Professor Lin, at your age, you're already so accomplished in criminal investigation. It's really amazing.”
Ma Guozhen couldn't help but sigh,"With you here to assist our police force in handling the case, I feel much more at ease."”
"Captain Ma, you flatter me."
Lin Can waved his hand." This isn't considered an accomplishment. Any qualified forensic doctor can give such a conclusion."”
"But there's no one else in our bureau who's as proficient in everything as Professor Lin.”
Ma Guozhen praised, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Lin Can.
At the same time, a police officer came to Ma Guozhen and saluted him. He reported,"Ma Zi, we have already conducted a detailed search of all the trash cans in this area. For the time being, we have not found any other human bones.”
"Alright, I got it."
Ma Guozhen waved at the police officer and pointed at the scene that had been turned upside down."Let the brothers tidy up the trash cans at the scene. Don't move the trash away for the time being. We might need to investigate again later.”
"Understood!"
the police officer replied.
"Professor Lin, we haven't found any other broken bones yet.”
"I'm going to pack up later. Come back to the police station with me to take a look at the pile of bones we found yesterday." Ma Guozhen said to Lin Can.”
Lin Can didn't directly respond to Ma Guozhen. He narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then asked,"Do you have a photo of that pile of bones?”
"Yes."
Ma Guozhen hesitated for two seconds and asked curiously,"But isn't it better to go back to the police station and see the broken bones?”
Lin Can directly ignored Ma Guozhen's question and said,"Give me the photo."
