Chapter 41: Investigating the Scene (1)

Li Hong waved his hand, and the investigator who had just reported the scene to him jogged over.
This person obviously knew Chen Yan.
“Hello.” Chen Yan saluted back.
“Wang Xu, reintroduce the situation of the site investigation just now.”
“Yes, Captain!” Wang Xu nodded.
” The victim is a female, about 20 years old. The time of death was around midnight last night.”
“At six o’clock this morning, the construction team started work. The workers found the body and called the police.”
“The deceased was suspected of being sexually assaulted when she was alive…”
“Cause of death…The preliminary judgment is that he died of mechanical suffocation.”
“At the same time, the victim was severely abused by the murderer before and after his death…”
In about three minutes, Wang Xu reported the general situation.
It seemed to be a relatively ordinary criminal case. There was a high probability that the victim was raped and then killed.
“Inspector Li, what do you think of our two teams working together on this case?”
Li Hong nodded. Of course, there was no problem.
Although the crime scene was located at the junction of the two teams, if the case could not be solved in the end, no one could escape.
As for fighting for fame and fortune, hehe, that was only seen on television and written in novels.
The truth was that Li Hong could not wait for Chen Yan to participate or even lead the case.
As long as he could solve the case, Li Hong didn’t care if he contributed or not.
” Captain Chen, 1 agree with your suggestion. We’ll collaborate on the case. You’ll lead the team, and we’ll cooperate!”
As soon as Li Hong finished speaking, a system notification sounded in Chen Yan’s ears.
[Ding! [The Strongest Police Training System mission has been released.]
” Solve the Field Murder Case. The deadline is ten days. If you complete the mission, you will be rewarded with Fighting Mastery. If you fail or exceed the deadline, the mission reward will be canceled.”
Chen Yan did not decline. At this time, the most important thing was to solve the case, not to be polite. Moreover, the system had issued a mission.
Fighting Specialization…
This skill should be pretty good!
“Let’s go to the scene and take a look.”
At the crime scene.
On the field of the eastern campus of Liancheng Institute of the Arts.
The police cordon had been set up, and some detectives were taking photos.
A half-naked female corpse was facing the sky.
Chen Yan immediately activated his sight and smell gene locks.
Then, Chen Yan knew why Wang Xu had said that the corpse had been severely abused.
The victim was slender, about 1.7 meters tall.
Her body was well-proportioned and her proportions were very good. From the shape of her face, she should have been a beautiful woman when she was alive.
However, his original appearance could no longer be seen.
The victim’s face was covered in blood and flesh, and the blade was cut into pieces like a pile of rags.
One of his eyeballs had been cut open by a sharp weapon, while the other was protruding. It was the only part of his face that was intact.
The murderer must have deliberately avoided the eye.
The deceased was half-naked, and from the neck down, there were also many cuts and wounds.
However, the murderer’s weapon should be a knife. The cut was not deep and did not touch the internal organs. Although the knife marks were terrifying, they were not fatal.
The lower part of his body was also cut like a honeycomb, and it had even been smashed.
His legs were slightly better. Although there were many knife marks, they were not completely shattered.
Only his arms were intact. There were no knife marks, only some scratches.
The two younger police officers were already squatting at the side and retching.
The visual gene lock was unlocked.
Every detail of the corpse was magnified in Chen Yan’s mind.
“There are some open wounds. It’s obvious that they were cut by sharp weapons when they were alive…”
“There are even more knife marks that are smooth and neat. They didn’t turn outwards. It’s obvious that they were cut after the victim died…”
The wounds on the corpses could actually speak.
The knife wounds on a living person’s body were all exposed because of the high activity of the muscles.
However, after a person died, their body’s vitality would disappear. The wounds left behind in this situation would not show signs of turning outwards.
Other than the arm, the neck of the deceased was also intact.
Faint scratches could already be seen.
However, in Chen Yan’s line of sight, it seemed that the two traces overlapped.
One mark was bigger, and the other was smaller.
The smell at the scene was chaotic, and there were about dozens of human auras.
Obviously, it was impossible to determine the murderer based on this.
But apart from that, there were also three more special flavors.
One of them made Chen Yan frown slightly.
“Glycerol?”
How could there be the smell of nitrogen at the scene?
Although the smell was very faint, it made Chen Yan very vigilant.
One had to know that the biggest use of the nitrogen was to make explosives.
Chen Yan only knew so much about this chemical after the system rewarded him with the Firearms Specialization skill.
“Captain Li, the school’s playground is under construction…Do we need to use explosives?”
Explosives?
Li Hong shook his head.” The Liancheng Institute of Art is a complete renovation. There’s no need for explosives. Naturally, there won’t be any explosives.”
The crime scene was a fenced construction site.
It included a school building that was being renovated and more than half of the field.
The body of the deceased was found on the playground under the renovated teaching building.
As for the other two smells, Chen Yan did not pay much attention to them. They should be two kinds of perfume.
One was from the deceased, and the other was…
There were quite a number of female detectives present. It might be the smell on their bodies.
” Inspector Li,” Chen Yan walked to Li Hong’s side after he finished his investigation.”Since it’s a joint case, shall we arrange the direction of the case?”
Li Hong quickly nodded. He trusted Chen Yan’s ability to solve cases.”Vice-Captain Chen, please arrange it. We’ll all be your subordinates!”
” Alright.* Chen Yan nodded.” Then 1 won’t stand on ceremony…”
” Inspector Lee, arrange for a group of people to contact the school and see if there are any missing students. Then, extract the blood and fingerprints of the deceased and compare them with the identity database. Try to confirm the identity of the deceased as soon as possible.”
Judging from the victim’s clothing and age, there was a high chance that he was a student at Liancheng Art College.
“Send another group of people to make a statement for the person who called the police.”
“Zhao Bing, complete the site investigation immediately and organize an autopsy to determine the final cause of death.”
It was the beginning of March in Liancheng. Although it was still a little cold, winter had passed and the weather was getting warmer.
Last night, the city had its first spring rain.
After deploying the work, Chen Yan walked back to the scene.
The crime scene was a construction site. The workers were working in the morning. Although they did not touch the body, many traces around the scene had been destroyed.
However, from the details, Chen Yan could still find some unusual things.
The deceased had crawled on the ground for some distance before he died. There were traces of crawling on the field.
Although it was a little unclear due to the rain, the blood mixed in the soil could still be found.
Chen Yan turned around and found the starting point where the deceased had started crawling.
It was about ten meters away.
Since he was crawling, he naturally had his chest facing down.
However, there wasn’t much dirt on the wounds on the victim’s body. It could be concluded that the victim had crawled to the last position before being tortured and killed by the murderer.
There were also traces of rape.
There were obvious signs of rape on the victim.
“Wang Gang, bring a group of people and check all the surveillance cameras in the vicinity. See if you can find anything.”
Invasion… Murder…
It seemed like a very simple case.
However, after the assault, why did the murderer torture the victim?
Not only did he torture the dead, he even tortured the corpse after the death of the dead.
Chen Yan frowned. This didn’t fit the characteristics of the typical Jiansha case….
