Chapter 160

Everyone recognizes every word Chen Fan says, but when put together, it doesn't sound like academic research; why does it sound like a criminal report?

Chen Fan says here: "Electric current, flames, low temperatures, etc. these methods are actually quite rare, but for example, beating someone to death with a club, there's a lot to be said about that."

"One strike down, the person is dead, right? The skull is cracked, right? But how much force was used—that's where it gets complicated."

Several forensic doctors nod in agreement; this topic is very interesting.

The student writing this down starts to feel socially withdrawn. Damn, how hateful, damn it, why does it feel like even though they are all forensic doctors, Chen Fan has all the traits of a criminal?

No, this guy definitely wants to commit a crime.

"For example, if I use this much force, and then I use this much force, isn't it different?"

Everyone watches and nods.

"Then, in this way, one can actually deduce the person's strength and then lock onto the perpetrator."

"And speaking of the way of cutting open a corpse, isn't it all cutting? Different tools cause different wounds. It's all written in the books, or you've done the experiments yourselves, right?"

Everyone continues to nod.

Chen Fan continues: "Then what if I write down, cutting open with a tool using great force?"

The student can't take it anymore and says: "Is there any meaning to that?"

The teacher responsible for this student directly slaps him on the head and says:

"You can determine the sharpness of the tool, and in this way, you can lock onto the perpetrator's identity or the type of tool."

This can also be done, damn it?

Chen Fan mentions dozens more things, each one based on: this person was killed, but how were they killed? What was the method, the means, the technique, etc.? It's a dazzling array.

The group of bigwigs present listens and is so happy; wow, truly awesome.

The police outside finish listening and think, well, we can arrest this person.

Chen Fan talks for a long time, and the student writes down a lot.

After finishing, a forensic doctor pulls Chen Fan to a blackboard and says: "Do you know about this?"

"I don't know. I don't have the habit of looking at old cases. What's wrong with this one?"

"This tool was found at the scene."

Chen Fan says: "The tool, right? Does the person's wound have it?"

He points to the photo.

Chen Fan compares them and says: "It won't work. This tool requires a lot of effort; this person must have spent a long time to cut the person open."

Li Tian is stunned and says: "Holy crap, that means there's a grudge, the mind is meticulous, the logic is clear. Damn, I know who it is. Damn it, this trash is an educated person."

Chen Fan says: "I'm not sure, anyway this person doesn't have much strength, cutting a person is very difficult. This tool, plus this wound, it must take time. This person really doesn't have much strength."

Not much strength means they are weak; if they are weak, the investigation will be much simpler.

Another bigwig pulls Chen Fan over here and says: "Then what about this one?"

"Electrocuted? The current seems to have been increased. This person's weapon seems to be able to adjust the current. This is quite impressive."

??????

Li Tian says: "Wait a minute, I'll go back and make a call to ask if the suspect over there knows anything about physics or mechanics."

The call is made, and a positive reply is received quickly.

"Then we can basically make an arrest."

Several bigwigs still want to pull Chen Fan, but he is blocked by someone, indicating that the time is long, so everyone shouldn't be in a hurry.

Chen Fan straightens his clothes and says: "By the way, I've said so much and shared so much experience, can I get a First-Class Merit?"

Several people look at Chen Fan one after another.

This kid really wants to earn merit.

Several foreigners listen to what Chen Fan says and mutter in their hearts: My God, Lord, take this devil away. This person is definitely not a good person; he is definitely a hidden criminal.

In the observation room, several people start packing up because it's very late and the live stream is about to be turned off.

Teacher He says: "Teacher Qin Ming, is what Chen Fan said useful?"

"Yes, useful, very useful. This stuff is actually something that requires deep study. Most people can't actually experiment on corpses with a calm heart, and these things aren't allowed. Chen Fan must have organized the data during every examination; otherwise, the workload alone is terrifying."

"Why do I feel like Chen Fan is researching a hundred ways to kill someone?"

After Brother Hu finishes speaking, everyone laughs. Qin Ming says: "Why are you telling such big truths? Chen Fan is a forensic doctor, he's part of our system, he's a good person."

After saying this, even Qin Ming doesn't want to believe it. Please, stop showing off.

When returning to where he is staying, Chen Fan lies flat in the hotel. The live stream is off, and Chen Fan stares at the ceiling in a daze.

With so many skills accumulated, Chen Fan actually doesn't know what type of person he belongs to now, but every time he sees those corpses, Chen Fan feels that he has gone from the initial coldness to liking it.

Yes, that's right, liking it. For dissection, for investigating the scene, for torturing the criminal—there is a morbid liking.

Is this a crime?

Chen Fan doesn't know, looking at his skills.

Forget it, which of these damn skills isn't a crime?

As for the few forensic doctors chatting in the group.

"Chen Fan is a really good kid, bright-headed, energetic. This outstanding contribution can be given to Chen Fan."

"Chen is a genius. I have never seen a person who can be so obsessed with corpses."

"This has real, huge significance for the progress of our forensic medicine. I agree too."

"I think he is too young; giving him credit is inappropriate."

"But if we give him credit, it can allow more young people to join the forensic industry. Isn't that good?"

Everyone is arguing endlessly in the group. At this time, the group owner speaks: "Let's follow the old rules tomorrow. Find a few old cases and let everyone study them to see if there can be any progress. Whoever gives the most substantive suggestions will decide how to proceed, okay?"

"Seconded..."

Everyone responds one after another.

The next day, early in the morning, everyone anxiously opens the live stream and clicks into Chen Fan's live room.

They hold their phones in anticipation, waiting for Chen Fan's live stream.

Before it even started, hundreds of people were already waiting.

There is nothing more anticipated than Chen Fan showing off.

The previous cases were all too depressing, but this time Chen Fan is truly showing off in front of a group of bigwigs. In this way, we as fans are also happy.

Look at the idol I follow, how excellent he is.

For example, parents ask their daughter.

"Which celebrity is this handsome young man?"

"His name is Chen Fan."

"What does he do?"

"Forensic doctor."

"Awesome."

Meanwhile, the photographer next to Chen Fan turns on the live stream. At this time, Chen Fan is eating in the arranged cafeteria.

Students from the school pass by, see Chen Fan, and rush up to ask for an autograph.

The other forensic doctors look on with disdain. Damn, it's fine that their profession isn't as good as his, but most importantly, they aren't as handsome as this guy.

Several bigwigs look down at their leather shoes speechlessly. Their leather shoes are polished clean, so why hasn't any student come to ask for their autograph?

After breakfast, they arrive at the venue. The person in charge says: "The exchange meeting is actually for everyone to communicate and learn from each other. Of course, there are also some academic research and so on, but the old rules are indispensable. Let's put out a few old cases here for everyone to brainstorm and take a look."

Everyone nods.

Here, one case after another is listed.

Chen Fan finds a case, stands in front of it, and looks at the corpse and the autopsy report.

He says: "This thing is very interesting."

Holy crap, no way, isn't your speed a bit too fast?

The organizer in charge is a sixty-year-old white-haired man. The old man comes over and says: "Tell us."

"A burning case, right? The place of death was in the mountain forest, right? But there are graveyards and such nearby, right?"

Everyone nods.

Chen Fan says: "The graveyard here was obviously opened by someone and then covered up again. This was done by grave robbers. I know this very well."

Li Tian holds his handcuffs and swings them. Very good, Chen Fan admitted it, I can arrest someone.

"Get to the point."

Chen Fan says: "Soot and carbon dust deposits are visible on the surface of the respiratory tract mucosa, sometimes mixed with mucus to form black thread-like mucous sputum; the epiglottis, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and other mucosa are congested, edematous, necrotic, and hemorrhagic, sometimes forming blisters. In severe cases, the above parts form diphtheritic pseudomembranes, which are easy to peel off. The above changes are called thermal respiratory tract syndrome. Thermal respiratory tract syndrome indicates that the victim still had the ability to live when the fire occurred, which is the most certain evidence of being burned alive. The lungs are extensively congested, hemorrhagic, edematous, emphysematous, or collapsed, with a solid texture and a bright red cross-section. Under the microscope, fat can sometimes be seen in the small blood vessels of the lungs, which can be used as evidence of being burned alive."

Everyone listens to Chen Fan's explanation and nods.

"Then, if it's homicide, if this person was burned after death, you wouldn't be able to check for dust or infection in the respiratory tract, right?"

The audience knows this; many movies and TV shows use this plot.
