Chapter 96: Inferring a Person from a Single Hand

(Requesting support, fourth update)

The hand still had flesh on it; that was the most absurd part.

Xiang Qinqin placed the hand inside the bag and preserved it carefully.

"We'll take this mess back with us."

The boss here said, "Take it, take it. I was already planning to close my restaurant. How could something like this appear?"

At that moment, a police officer came forward and asked, "Where did the meat come from?"

"The chef has always been buying it."

The chef sent the supplier's phone number and address, and the police team immediately went to arrest them.

Soon, they found the group. Good heavens, all that meat was from dead pigs, or from unclean animals, and so on.

Several people huddled together and said, "We just make gutter oil; we really didn't kill anyone."

Gutter oil?

Old Liu keenly spotted something wrong and said, "Let's find the person."

"Huh? Really find the person?"

"Yes, find the person. Go into the sewers. If we don't go in, this case can't be solved. Also, you go find the person first; I'll speed up the lab analysis here."

Back in the lab, Old Liu stared at the hand bone, lost in thought.

Bai Lu took a sip of water and said, "Sigh, catching a killer with just one hand... isn't that too difficult?"

Qin Ming said, "No matter how hard it is, we must catch him."

Gao Ye said, "It seems even forensic experts have their tough times."

"It's nothing. If you've read the accumulated case files, you'll feel that demons always exist in this world, and demons turn the human world into hell."

Old Liu looked at the bones and began the analysis with the trainees.

"Remove the basic fats and related substances; we must find every possible clue."

"You guys over there, compare it with the gene database. If there's a match, that's best; if not, it doesn't matter, but keep it preserved."

Qu Yiling nodded, and Cheng Ruofei took them to do it.

Old Liu cut off a piece of the bone and handed it to two male students, asking them to examine it.

He himself stared blankly at the hand.

Qin Ming and Chen Fan appeared beside Old Liu.

"Got any ideas?"

Old Liu said, "No leads at all, absolutely no leads. All we can do now is wait for them to go into the sewers. Moreover, I'm worried the culprit might flee; the freshness of this meat is a bit too high."

Qin Ming said, "Then you don't need to worry. If the person runs, it'll be even easier to catch. The nearby communities have already started taking action. Anyone who goes out must explain themselves; if they don't return later, that basically confirms it. When it comes to solving cases, community members are very helpful."

"That would be best, but we forensic experts are truly useless."
