forensic hunter

Three years in the police station, one year in the serious crime team, four years in the police academy, and eight years in the police force, Luo Jianan heard for the first time that he needed a "spiritualist" to help in the investigation.

Isn't this engaging in feudal superstition?Do you want to lose the face of the serious crime team of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Public Security Bureau?

"Captain, you can send whoever you like to pick them up, anyway, I won't go." With long legs raised up on the desk, Luo Jianan rolled his big black and white eyes to look at the ceiling, "I can't afford to lose this person."

"Xiao Luo, take your feet off, and don't bring your hooliganism into the office." Captain Fade Chen threw a thick stack of files at him, "Mr. Pray that the schedule is very tight, so don't be late."

Putting away his legs and putting the file on the desk, Luo Jianan stood up and said with a gloomy face: "Captain, I am here to be a policeman, not a driver for Tiao Dashen. In addition, I have never liked people who practice feudal superstition. You arrange Am I going to do this to bully me because I'm a newcomer?"

"You can't be a newcomer if you can stay in the serious crime team for a year, Xiao Nan." Deputy captain Zhao Pingsheng patted him on the shoulder enthusiastically, "Did you forget the one that cried at the scene of the crime last month? It even vomited to the forensic doctor." You have to save him first."

"Cut, that kind of trash shouldn't be admitted to the police academy." Luo Jianan pouted, picked up the car key and pressed it against the window.The headlights of the off-road vehicle parked under the window flickered once, and the vehicle had completed starting. "Let's go, captain, where can I send it to the morgue when the servants pick it up?"

Fade Chen glared at him.

"Forensic Office."

————————————————————

Sitting in the driver's seat, Luo Jianan clicked on the navigation and entered the address of "Teacher Qi". When he saw the location sign, he immediately thought, "I'm fucking out of town".Follow the navigation all the way, and there is no way for cars to walk a few hundred meters away from the destination, only the stone steps embedded in the ramp.Luo Jianan got out of the car and looked at the surrounding scene, and the words "wilderness and wilderness" popped up in his mind.

Get out of the car and climb up the stone steps—there are at least five hundred steps—Luo Jianan was already out of breath when he reached the last step, he should have asked that "Teacher Qi" to wait for him by the side of the road!Looking up, his already depressed mood was even more clouded—this "Teacher Qi" is indeed a great dancer, and he actually lives in the temple!

The monk who was cleaning at the door watched Luo Jianan walking towards him with a dark face, and instinctively took a step back. "Benefactor, are you here to offer incense or—"

"Looking for someone!" Wiping off the sweat on Gao Ting's bridge of nose, Luo Jianan rested his hands on both sides of the belt, and after he recovered his breath, he raised his chin at the monk, "Where is Qiming?"

Prayer?who?

The monk blinked his eyes and shook his head.

Rubbing his hair irritably, Luo Jianan turned and walked towards the wide-open temple gate.It is said that Qi Ming doesn't use a mobile phone - he is a freak - so he can only use the most primitive way to find people.Standing still in the courtyard, he clasped his hands around his mouth and shouted out of breath, "Qi Ming! I'm Superintendent Luo Jianan of the Serious Crime Squad. Captain Chen Fei asked me to pick you up to the forensic office of the Municipal Public Security Bureau!"

When the voice fell to the ground, the crow on the tree yelled a few times in response.

No one cares.

Just when Luo Jianan was eager to search from room to room, a sissy man with glasses and wearing monk robes but with long hair came out from the main hall.He looked Luo Jianan up and down, and after a while, he put on an "uneducated" expression.

"Master Yun Jing." The monk following Luo Jianan put his palms together and bowed to the man with glasses, "This benefactor is looking for someone named Qi Ming. I'm not sure which master in our temple has this lay name."

"I'm Qi Ming." Qi Ming slightly turned his head towards the monk, and walked up to Luo Jianan, "You're late, which will delay my schedule."

How busy can you be as a monk?Luo Jianan felt that he was really well-bred, otherwise he would have to say that back. "You are Qi Ming? Well, follow me—"

"Wait for me for 10 minutes, I'm going to change clothes." Interrupting Luo Jianan, Qi Ming turned and walked towards the back of the main hall.

Luo Jianan originally thought that he would see Qi Ming change into a yellow robe and bring out a mahogany sword—isn't the dance master dressed like this?But Qi Ming, who reappeared in the field of vision, was wearing a neat and narrow small suit, and instead of a mahogany sword, he was carrying a computer bag and a travel bag.His long hair was tied neatly behind his head, exposing the square jawbone without looking sissy at all.It was not obvious that he was wearing a monk's robe just now, but Qi Ming's body was as strong and strong as an athlete's.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Luo Jianan really felt that it would be no problem for the other party to play the leading role in the eight o'clock stall.

"Master Yunfeng, thank you for taking care of me these days, please tell the abbot for me, don't blame me for leaving in a hurry." Qi Ming saluted Monk Yunfeng.

Monk Yunfeng put his palms together and bowed his body: "Amitabha, Master Yunjing, I wish you a safe journey down the mountain this time."

Luo Jianan on the side almost rolled his eyes.

Is this a costume drama?

————————————————————

Sitting in the car, Qi Ming pressed down on the window, took out a cigarette, popped one in his mouth, opened the hood of the lighter, lit it, and exhaled out the window.But he only took a puff, and then crushed the cigarette.

"You are—" Luo Jianan originally wanted to ask the other party for one, but seeing him like this, he didn't have the nerve to open his mouth.

"I'm quitting smoking." Qi Ming turned his head and glanced at him, "Drive."

I am not your exclusive driver.Suppressing the resentment in his heart, Luo Jianan started the car and drove back to the city along the bumpy gravel road.

After driving for a while, Qi Ming asked, "What case?"

"The headless corpse was salvaged from the river during dredging a week ago." Luo Jianan didn't want to state the case to the other party.He really didn't know whether the captain's head was kicked by a donkey or what, so he asked a "spiritualist" to assist in handling the case.

"Gender, age, cause of death."

"Male, according to the wear and tear of the bones, the age is about 45 to [-], and the cause of death is—" Luo Jianan draws a long voice, "Wait until you find out from the corpse."

Qi Ming didn't speak, but took out his mobile phone from his computer bag—a mobile phone?After Luo Jianan glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, he immediately yelled, "Why don't you have a mobile phone!?"

"The monastery is a place of meditation." Qi Ming called out the email, glanced at it and put away the phone, "You just said, what's your name?"

"Luo Jianan."

"Oh, pumpkin."

If it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't lived enough, Luo Jianan would have driven the car down the cliff next to the mountain road and fell this rude guy to death.How can you give people nicknames as soon as you come up, I know you very well?

Return the fucking pumpkin, shit!

"I have trouble remembering people's names, and I can't remember nicknames." Seeing Luo Jianan's face darken, Qi Ming explained lightly.

"Don't bother you." Luo Jianan gritted his teeth and said while searching for nicknames for Qi Ming, "We just met each other once, and we won't see each other again in the future."

Pushing his glasses slightly, Qi Ming thought for a while and said, "Captain Chen said that the person who came to pick me up today will be sent by me in the future."

Give me a break!I am sent by you, a great dancer?Luo Jianan laughed angrily.

"Teacher Qi, you must have made a mistake. I'm from the serious crimes team, but you - you're not even from the police station."

"I am a special forensic consultant."

"Huh? Aren't you a 'spiritualist'?" Luo Jianan endured and endured so that he didn't say "jumping the great god".

"That's a nickname someone gave me."

Qi Ming raised his chin slightly and looked straight at the end of the road.

"Because I can make corpses 'talk.'"

————————————————————

Let the dead body speak?Bragging.

Standing by the autopsy table, Luo Jianan waited to see how Qi Ming could make a headless corpse "speak".Don't talk about the mouth, there is no head, how can I say, the belly button?

In order not to make himself look too stingy, when Luo Jianan smoked rubber gloves, he also smoked a pair for Qi Ming, but the other party didn't pick it up. "Do you think I missed the word 'please'?" Luo Jianan stared.

Qi Ming was looking through the autopsy report of Lao Han, the official forensic doctor in the bureau. Hearing Luo Jianan's words, he responded casually: "No need, I can't touch the corpse on the autopsy table, it's against the law."

"You are a forensic doctor, but you can't touch the corpse."

"I don't have a forensic license."

"..." Luo Jianan's forehead stretched a blood vessel, "Does Team Chen know about this?"

"I have told you the truth."

"That...you look at it slowly, I'll go out first to take a breath."

Luo Jianan exited the autopsy office with an expression of "my captain's head must have been kicked by a donkey".Fade Chen was on the phone, when Luo Jianan came in and pointed to the side, motioning him to sit on a chair and wait.After making the phone call, he asked Luo Jianan: "Did Teacher Qi answer it?"

"Already sent to the morgue—no, the medical examiner's office." Luo Jianan slapped his face pretending to slip his tongue, "Captain, are you okay? Qi Ming doesn't have a medical examiner's license."

"With the help of Lao Han, this is not a problem."

"Is he really that awesome?"

"Xiao Luo, pay attention to the words you use. This is the den of thieves where the Public Security Bureau is not your undercover agent." Fade Chen frowned slightly.At the beginning, Luo Jianan was transferred here because of his undercover experience. The young man dared to fight, he was flexible and good at dealing with all kinds of people. The serious crime team needed such talents.

But even the gangster spirit that comes out of the undercover can't be completely removed.

"Okay, captain, let me put it another way—is the teacher you invited, Teacher Qi, really that powerful?"

Fade Chen was about to open his mouth when the phone on the table rang.After answering the call, he stood up and greeted Luo Jianan to go to the forensic office with him.

Walking into the elevator, Chen Fei said to Luo Jianan: "Whether he is really that good or not, you can judge for yourself."

————————————————————

"Headless male corpse, whose identity is unknown. Judging from the blood erosion and blood loss of the incision bone, the head of the deceased was cut off after death, but the autopsy found no fatal disease or other limb trauma."

Qi Ming closed the autopsy report and turned to look at Lao Han.Lao Han nodded, confirming that what he said was all right.Luo Jianan turned his car keys with his hands behind his back, waiting to hear Qi Ming's advice.

"There are usually three situations in which the murderer will cut off the head: first, the fatal injury is on the head, and the absence will interfere with forensics; second, the deceased has unique facial features for identification, and the absence also interferes with forensics; third, the murderer hates the deceased. Humiliate the dead by beheading." Just as Qi Ming finished speaking, he heard Luo Jianan "cut".He looked at Luo Jianan and asked, "Do you have an opinion?"

"Can you tell me something we don't know?" Luo Jianan rolled his eyes disdainfully, "Anyone who is involved in criminal investigation knows these things."

Fade Chen coughed and reminded Luo Jianan to be patient.

"What I want to talk about is the fourth situation——" Qi Ming raised his hand and gestured at the wound on the neck of the deceased, "The fracture of the cervical spine is neat, but the fracture of the trachea, blood vessels and mastoid muscle is rough, that is, the bone is severed. , while other parts fell off due to rot. Based on this, I judge that the head of the deceased was broken by the propeller, which was not intentional by the murderer but an accident when throwing the body."

"Old Han, you didn't see this?" Luo Jianan complained in a low voice.Old Han shrugged his shoulders and said nothing.

"Old Han's autopsy report stated that it was caused by fish and shrimp gnawing. Generally speaking, this is correct. But I checked the geographical location of that water area, and the sewage outlet is 50 meters upstream. According to the reaction of the corpse's skin, it can be Judging that the pH value of the water body is less than 5, fish and shrimp cannot survive in large quantities, and the corpses are buried in mud, and the impact of biological damage other than microorganisms is very small." Qi Ming took the autopsy report on Luo Jianan, "This is not Lao Han's responsibility, on-site report The report didn’t mention the sewage outlet, how did you make him think about it?”

Luo Jianan rolled his eyes, well, now Qi Ming started to teach them how to be a policeman again.

"So the inference of the time of death has to be reconsidered." Qi Ming said to Lao Han.

Lao Han said: "The previous judgment was three to four weeks, but in an acidic environment, the time needs to be shortened."

"About two weeks." Qi Ming took down the X-ray film inserted on the light box, "The deceased's cervical spinal canal was narrowed, which would cause migraines or dizziness, and needed long-term treatment. Go to the orthopedics department of the hospital to check the medical records and see Whoever has been receiving treatment but hasn’t been to a follow-up visit for the past two weeks may be able to find out the identity of the deceased.”

"Mr. Qi, you used to be an orthopedic doctor?" Lao Han asked with a smile.

Qi Ming shook his head, then looked down at his watch, and said to Luo Jianan, "I want to meet a friend at the Holiday Inn, please?"

Luo Jianan just had such a small degree of recognition for Qi Ming - the size of a needle tip, but it disappeared as soon as he was ordered by the other party, and looked at Fade Chen with a displeased face. "Boss, I'll send him off, who will investigate the identity of the deceased?"

"Let Xiao Xu and Dawei do the identity check." Fade Chen said, "Xiao Luo, you will follow Teacher Qi during this time."

Luo Jianan yelled in a strange tone: "I still have to follow? Then when he goes to the toilet, do I have to wait outside and pass the paper?"

"Luo Jianan!" Fade Chen had big eyes, staring at people with a sense of oppression.Taking half a step back, Luo Jianan turned the corner of his mouth and said, "Captain, you are getting wrinkled when you are angry."

"Can I go? I don't like being late." Qi Ming asked.

Shaking his face, Luo Jianan strode out of the room.

————————————————————

Qi Ming and his friends had afternoon tea at a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant in the Holiday Inn.Luo Jianan glanced at the menu, the price was so expensive that he was speechless.A cup of milk tea costs 68!Drink gold!It's better to go to the Starbucks downstairs.

From the corner of the eye, he caught sight of Luo Jianan's raised eyebrows, and Qi Ming said in a flat tone, "Don't worry, I invite you."

Nonsense, of course you please, I will be your driver for nothing?Luo Jianan snorted in his heart.At this time, a young man in a light gray suit appeared at the door of the restaurant, looked inside and walked towards their table. "Brother Ming, I'm sorry, I have some business in the office just now, so I'm late." The young man sat on the chair opposite and waved to the waiter, "Order."

The waiter had just stood at the table, before Qi Ming could speak to the young man, Luo Jianan raised his hand and asked, "Are there any lobsters? The big ones—"

"It's in the next door, sir." The waiter held back his eyes and said, "Would you like to order one for you?"

"Don't worry about him, this man is sick." Qi Ming kicked Luo Jianan's shoe under the table, "One mango smoothie, one cup of original milk tea, one cup of salted lemon seven, and three more marble cakes."

"Eating too much sweet can cause diabetes." Luo Jianan snorted.Qi Ming gave him a sideways look, and changed his words, "He doesn't want two cakes."

Luo Jianan gave Qi Ming a hard look.

When the waiter turned and walked away, the young man asked, "Brother Ming, who is this?"

"The serious crime team—" Qi Ming thought for a while, "Just call him Pumpkin."

"Luo Jianan!" After gritting his teeth, Luo Jianan reached out and shook his hand.

"Shao Chen, I am the manager of the business department of this hotel. If you need accommodation, you can find me and I will give you a discount." Shao Chen got up and handed Luo Jianan a business card.Taking the business card, Luo Jianan stuffed it into his pocket, and squeezed out a polite "thank you" smiling face.

When the drinks were served, Qi Ming pushed a can of Hedy and a cup of salted lemon in front of Luo Jianan: "I've been listening to you clear your throat since we met, drink this to reduce phlegm."

Luo Jianan was stunned.He smoked a lot, and his throat was not clear every day, and it has become a habit to cough lightly from time to time.Unexpectedly, Qi Ming noticed this, and specially ordered him a phlegm-reducing drink.Well, it turns out that this person is not as mean as he imagined.

Just when Luo Jianan was slightly moved, he heard Qi Ming say again: "It's like a toad is placed around me, it's annoying."

Your uncle's.

Luo Jianan's eyes almost rolled to the ceiling.

————————————————————

Qi Ming and Shao Chen were chatting there, while Luo Jianan flipped through his phone boredly.Suddenly there was a sentence that made him prick up his ears——

"Brother Ming, how is your sister?" Shao Chen asked.

"No news, it's been too long." Qi Ming shook his head, "As soon as I came back, I went to the orphanage to check. The records said that she was adopted when she was seven years old, and the contact information left by the adopter has expired."

"address?"

"I also went to see it. It was demolished and rebuilt. It's long gone."

"That's really difficult." Shao Chen clicked his tongue, "Where's your uncle? Didn't you ask?"

Luo Jianan sneaked a glimpse of Qi Ming's expression froze when he heard "Uncle".

"I didn't look for him. If he hadn't kicked my sister and me out of the house, we wouldn't have been separated." Qi Ming said in a cold tone, "Forget it, don't mention this, I told you that day How are things going?"

"It's already been fixed. Here's the key to the neighborhood across the road." Shao Chen took out two keys and put them on the table, "But the furniture you ordered hasn't arrived yet, so you have to stay in a hotel for a few days first."

After taking the keys, Qi Ming handed one of them to Luo Jianan. "You take this."

"What is this?" Luo Jianan frowned.

"The key to my apartment."

"Why give me this?"

"If I work overtime in the bureau, it's convenient for you to help me change and wash my clothes."

Superintendent of the Serious Crime Squad, I am a majestic, you bitch really treat me like a bully! ?Luo Jianan's neck was stiff, and he had no intention of picking up the key at all.Qi Ming didn't talk nonsense with him, just stuffed the key into his pocket, and raised his hand to beckon the waiter to come over and pay the bill.In fact, he didn't give any money, he just signed a room number on the bill.

"You live here?" Luo Jianan raised an eyebrow.

Qi Ming nodded. "yes."

"how much per day?"

"Brother Ming booked a room with a front price of 3680." Shao Chen answered.

Luo Jianan stared in astonishment: "Hey, isn't the money reimbursed by the bureau?"

"No need." Qi Ming glanced at him, "I am a shareholder of this hotel."

Fuck, you local tyrant!But wait.Luo Jianan suddenly realized a problem. "You are so rich, why do you still take the car from the bureau?"

"It costs nothing to hire you as a driver."

Qi Ming's eyes shone with the shrewdness of a businessman.
