Chapter 3: The Prison Police Squadron

So that is the elemental data of the pinnacle of the family? inquired a chubbier cop.

Youre right, Captain Wang. An Jinzhong spoke up.

Captain Wang stroked his beard and rubbed An Jinzhong on the again: Its troublesome work, previous buddy, going to placate the lots whereas blocking the reporters. Earlier than the case is investigated, dont let these messy individuals come up.

I do know. An Jinzhong gave a nod.

An Jinzhong took one final have a look at the deceased earlier than heading downstairs with the police officer from the station. As a police officer, An Jinzhong has by no means thought of turning into a felony police officer who can purpose and probe, however An Jinzhong, an almost half-century-old police officer, understands that he won’t ever have the chance to grasp this want in his life.

He sighed and walked previous the residents who have been unlocking the fifth-floor lock. He felt that the years would move with out leaving a mark, and he couldnt assist however really feel desolation within the spring and fall, wishing he might sing a poetry on the spot. After watching An Jinzhong main the crew away, the resident on the fifth flooring peered down.

Jiang He was the man in query.

Jiang He hurried downstairs with Captain Wang. Captain Wang and his group have been approaching from a distance whereas Jiang He was considering easy methods to slip into the passageway beneath the nostril of this policeman. Jiang He thought of it, glanced left and proper, then took up a single shirt that others had put aside and positioned it on his physique.

Some detectives have been wearing plainclothes, and Jiang He kindly trailed behind them.

Because of this, nothing may be seen on the floor of the earth, and the floor is all the time the aspect that individuals need you to look at. As a consequence, Jiang Hes created a superb behavior. He’ll continually carry out an intensive investigation of what he sees along with his eyes, and choose the best resolution from the numerous alternate options in his ideas.

And Captain Wang in entrance of him clearly lacked this high quality.

Lao An informed me to come back up and have a look at it Jiang He exuded confidence.

Captain Wang nodded and sat down to look at the corpse on the entryway, Wu Guifengs corpse, with out paying an excessive amount of consideration to Jiang He.

Jiang He was presently standing behind Captain Wang and staring on the useless. His eyes have been like a high-speed scanner, scanning all of the details about the corpse into his mind, and virtually on the identical second, Jiang was occupied with one thing else. His thoughts processed the info.

Feminine corpse between the ages of fifty and sixty. The feminine physique stood between 1.5 and 1.6 metres tall and was wearing a inexperienced T-shirt and common black denims. The pants floor was clean, and there wasnt any blood on them. The feminine corpse was leaning towards the fifty-centimeter-high shoe cupboard. At this level, the feminine corpses head was on the peak of the shoe cupboard, and her head was mendacity on the shoe cupboards groove, stopping it from falling down.

Jiang He noticed the suitable hand of the feminine corpse. The hand of the feminine corpse was tough. Regardless of being coated in blood, it couldnt cease the tough and dry traces of time. The feminine corpses proper hand had a thimble on the center finger, and the dense pit on the thimble was crammed with blood.

A knife was positioned into the feminine corpses stomach on the time. In line with the knife deal with, the size of the knife is round 10 centimetres, and nearly all of the blades have penetrated the stomach of the feminine corpse. The size of the blade is unknown. In line with Jiang Hes knife analysis, Jiang He has an 80% likelihood of proving that the blade of a typical dwelling serrated knife is roughly 12 to 150% of the size of the deal with.Up to date from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Which means, the blade measures between twelve and fifteen centimetres in size.

The size of the blade revealed outdoors the corpse was round three centimetres, implying that at the least ten centimetres of the blade punctured the feminine corpses stomach. The path of the hilt is indirect, however it’s inward, that’s, nearer to the face of the feminine corpse.

Gloves, Jiang says. He stated to Captain Wang, who was standing subsequent to him.

Captain Wang gazed on the small police officer who had materialised out of nowhere. His coronary heart was already fried, even if his expression remained unchanged. Who the hell is that this lazy cop? How might he have made such a wise determination after just a few minutes of commentary, which shocked everybody within the room?

Captain Wang finally took a detailed have a look at the person.

An extended-unwashed head of hair, a single coat that’s clearly a lot bigger than his physique, two thick darkish circles round his eyes, a face with no variations, and eyes which are icy and harsh.

In a small police station, there’s such a formidable particular person. If there’s a likelihood, let this particular person come to the substation, Captain Wang reasoned, then I’ll save numerous vitality.

And, after all, Captain Wang is unaware of this. The person who seems to be highly effective in his sight is definitely a social loafer.

Gloves. Jiang turned involved when nobody responded. He spoke as soon as extra.

A policeman subsequent to Captain Wang handed Jiang He the glove.

Jiang He nodded, placed on his gloves, and crouched subsequent to the useless physique.

He stretched out and touched the corpses shirt and trousers, each of which have been product of tough fabric. The trousers and T-shirt are worn and seem to have been worn for a protracted interval. The T-shirt was plainly a mens t-shirt, and judging on how ill-fitting it was, it wasnt bought expressly for her.

After seeing this, Jiang Hes head conveyed a message to Jiang He: This previous woman is usually very frugal and belongs to the kind of one that can get monetary savings.

He held his breath and targeted on the serrated knife.

Such serrated knives are standard in houses, however Jiang He felt that they have been inappropriate on this household. This sort of serrated knife is designed for chopping difficult-to-cut meat, akin to frozen meat. An old style Wangmazi kitchen knife is an excellent various for an aged girl wanting to economize when chopping greens or meat. Glorious determination.

As a result of the knifes deal with had been flushed, only a small quantity of blood was splattered on it, and many of the areas have been nonetheless clear. Trying additional down, the blade was pointed down towards the stomach, which strengthened Jiang Hes view that this aged girl dedicated suicide.

Jiang He acquired to his toes and acknowledged, This particular person continues to be 90% more likely to have dedicated suicide. What concerning the forensic doctor? Why dont I see a forensic physician?

The prior detective was irritated by his statements. Although Jiang He thought he was solely explaining the scenario, it sounded a bit of domineering to the detectives ears. He couldnt cease himself from saying, Youre only a policeman. For those who dont have something to do, return to mediate disputes between your neighbors and your mother and father. Who do you suppose you might be? Is it your flip to command right here?

Enraged by this loopy transfer, Captain Wang gently waved his hand. The person in entrance of him was clearly out of the extraordinary. This was Captain Wangs intestine intuition.

There isn’t any felony investigation expertise unit within the sub-bureau, however the metropolis bureaus forensic medication is on its approach. Nonetheless, I’ve a query, Captain Wang acknowledged to Jiang He.
