Chapter 472: Record Broken? Autopsy Takes Only Six and a Half Minutes?

"According to a nurse who works at the same hospital, this doctor was seen coming to work this morning."

"After lunch, the doctor returned to his office for a nap."

"Just during the nap, a patient requiring immediate surgery was brought in, so the nurse entered the office to wake the doctor for the operation."

"Unexpectedly, as soon as she pushed the door open, she found the doctor dead."

After listening to Li Tian's account.

Chen Fan spoke first: "Did you check the surveillance footage?"

Li Tian nodded and said: "Of course we checked, but as you know, too many people come and go at the hospital every day."

"Reviewing the footage will still take some time."

"And according to the doctor in the same office, this doctor did not encounter any strange people that day."

In the observation room, Sister Yuanyuan asked in confusion: "Does checking surveillance really take that long?"

"I've seen many TV dramas where they finish reviewing all the footage very quickly."

Qin Ming said: "You said it yourself, that's a TV drama. Actually reviewing surveillance footage consumes a huge amount of police resources."

"Especially in places with extremely high foot traffic; if the killer deliberately disguised themselves, it becomes even harder to find them."

"This is also why some cases occurring in the city center or places with massive foot traffic are difficult to solve."

Teacher He nodded and said: "Indeed, with high foot traffic, it is very hard to distinguish clues."

The audience learned of such a thing for the first time.

"I often watch crime dramas; they review surveillance so quickly, I thought checking footage only took a few short minutes."

"TV dramas really mislead people. We should watch more variety shows like 'First Step into the Workplace,' otherwise everyone thinks catching criminals is simple."

"Actually, everyone needn't say that. After all, TV dramas must consider plot pacing. If they spent a huge amount of time showing surveillance review, the drama would surely flop!"

"Exactly, exactly. You could say TV dramas and this show each have their own merits; let's not step on one to praise the other."

Half an hour later.

Chen Fan and the others arrived at the hospital.

Because a murder had occurred, Li Tian had already ordered certain passages to be cordoned off.

After all, it is a hospital.

Of course, it was impossible to seal off the entire hospital.

Otherwise, patients needing surgery or medical treatment would have their conditions delayed, which would be a very serious consequence.

Everyone proceeded to the first crime scene.

That is, the doctor's office.

At this time, the police had only detained several doctors and nurses who had contact with the deceased for questioning.

Chen Fan, Old Song, and the others put on their gear and entered the crime scene.

Inside the office, there were only two seats.

One belonged to the deceased, the other to a colleague.

The deceased lay on the ground with no visible external injuries, face down.

It looked as if he had died from suffocation.

Chen Fan instructed: "Liu Mengyan, today you are responsible for examining the scene to see if there are any important clues."

"Remember, we need clues, not your guesses!"

Although Liu Mengyan was a genius girl, Chen Fan still hoped to prevent her from going down the wrong path as much as possible.

Liu Mengyan immediately followed Chen Fan's instructions.

The scene was actually very clean.

Besides traces left by the deceased and the doctor in the same office, there were only traces from some nurses and from patients who came for treatment.

But these traces were too chaotic; it was impossible to analyze them clearly at once.

So Liu Mengyan needed to pack up all relevant fingerprints and clues to take back.

To conduct further testing using science.

Chen Fan and Old Song would first perform a simple external autopsy on the deceased's body.

Old Song said: "There are no external injuries on the deceased's body; it is clear he was not struck."

Chen Fan noticed the deceased's mouth. Upon opening it, a pungent smell wafted out.

It was described as pungent.

But in reality, only Chen Fan could smell it.

Chen Fan said: "The deceased's mouth has an unusual odor. It seems we need to take the body back for an autopsy."

"Did the deceased have any illnesses?"

This question was clearly directed at Li Tian.

After all, the police had already questioned everyone related to the deceased just now.

Li Tian shook his head and said: "No. Moreover, the deceased often exercised in his spare time, his body was in good shape, and he underwent regular checkups every year."

Chen Fan said: "Then we can only go back and perform an autopsy."

Thinking he could perform an autopsy again, Chen Fan couldn't help feeling a bit excited...

Actually, for most people, repeating the same task would surely lead to feelings of boredom.

"Did you notice? As soon as 'autopsy' is mentioned, Chen Fan is obviously very excited."

"I am excited too. I used to be very afraid of corpses, but after watching so many episodes of this show, I actually look forward to autopsies?"

"Me too. I have decided that after my college entrance exam, I will apply for the forensic program! I hope I can become Chen Fan's disciple then!"

"Upstairs, are you dreaming? Chen Fan is now a national-level talent. If he's taking disciples, he'd definitely take a genius like Liu Mengyan."

……

Meanwhile, Liu Mengyan also left behind every clue she could find.

She planned to take them back for testing.

Chen Fan and Old Song and the others walked out of the first homicide scene.

Li Tian asked, "How was it? Did you find anything?"

Chen Fan replied, "Based on the strange smell in the victim's mouth, I suspect poisoning, but it's only a suspicion."
