Chapter 1199

~10 min read 1,869 words

In front of Jiang Yuan was a complete male corpse.

But his abdominal cavity was empty, looking soft, and his cranial cavity was also empty; his brains had long been thrown out during the plane crash.

The corpse itself was also soft, spread flat on the autopsy table, expanding like a flow, while the lower body, which was severely burned, was still stiff and straight, like half a thick human skin mattress.

His bones had already broken during the plane crash, and they were shattered into pieces, together with the muscles that had also lost their support, softly wrapped together by the remaining skin tissue and the melted grease. It was a human skin bag in the true sense.

Therefore, before the moment of the plane crash, this pilot had actually already died. The death spiral or out-of-control dive before the crash wasn't just a nightmare that was hard to change. The centrifugal force generated by the plane's airframe exceeded the scope that the human body could bear, and the pilot's body couldn't either.

And for this deceased person today, his physical condition before his death might not have reached the pilot's standard. The flight license requirements for small planes aren't high. If one can pass the normal physical examination, one can fly solo after flying for dozens of hours. It's just that the requirements for passenger flight are slightly higher, but it's only examining flight time and has nothing to do with physical fitness.

"Have you done an autopsy on a plane crash corpse?" Zeng Zeng Lianrong stood closer and whispered a question.

Actually, he knew the answer. Domestic plane crash cases are rare, and there are only a few forensic experts who have participated in relevant autopsies.

Zeng Zeng Lianrong, as a forensic expert of the Beijing Bureau, had cooperated with Jiang Yuan many times and was quite recognized for his forensic level. But some experience, if you don't have it, you don't have it. Zeng Zeng Lianrong was also worried that Jiang Yuan would make mistakes.

In this kind of case that involves foreigners and needs to be carried out independently, if Jiang Yuan makes a mistake, no one will cover for him.

Jiang Yuan smiled. His LV4 forensic pathology was also LV4 when facing a plane crash corpse. This level of experience, in today's domestic... it should be said, in today's international, might also be the first one. Tracing back to history, if a forensic expert wants to reach this technical level, they might have to trace back to the World War II era. At the very least, they have to participate in more than three Middle East wars or something.

"Haven't done it, but no problem." Jiang Yuan gave a definite answer without the slightest ambiguity.

At times like this, modesty will only create more problems.

Zeng Zeng Lianrong really could only smack his lips: "Your confidence... and your talent, okay then. By the way, if we start, should we call the Italian forensic expert in?"

"Call him." Jiang Yuan wasn't in a hurry to move the corpse and turned his head: "We all took photos before, right? I looked at the photos of the scene records and collected personal items on the way. Are there any updates?"

For a plane crash corpse, dissecting the inside might not provide as much information as the outside.

Zeng Zeng Lianrong looked at the small forensic expert Zhan Kan beside him.

Zhan Kan was a forensic expert of the Zhengguang Branch of the Beijing Bureau. After the accident was reported, he was the first to arrive at the scene. At this time, he said hurriedly: "The scene is still being surveyed, mainly engineering investigation. The wreckage has basically been collected, and the black box has also been found. There is no voice information. The pilot should have panicked at the time, or passed out. Other flight data is not clear yet."

"Don't analyze randomly." Zeng Zeng Lianrong glared at Zhan Kan: "How do you know the pilot passed out? Can you make such a judgment without voice information?"

Zhan Kan opened his mouth and shook his head hurriedly.

"When the foreign forensic expert comes in later, be alert." Zeng Zeng Lianrong reminded him, then asked someone to make a call.

Jiang Yuan coughed twice and said: "Put the updated photos on the wall."

"Yes." Zhan Kan hurriedly operated at the computer and projected the photos of the latest scene survey onto the screen on the wall.

"Play it fast." Jiang Yuan looked up.

It was only a few minutes, and all the latest photos taken at the scene were finished looking at.

Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, turned his head to check the gloves he was wearing and the tools beside him.

Soon, Cui Cui Qishan brought in a middle-aged foreigner with yellow hair and a Chinese person in his early 20s.

"This is Mr. Alessio, an Italian forensic expert. This is Li Jiang Jianfeng, responsible for translating for Mr. Alessio." Cui Cui Qishan introduced briefly, then turned to the foreigner and said: "You can only watch, not record, not interfere with the autopsy, not touch our personnel, not talk to our personnel, not touch the corpse and everything in the room. If you have questions, you can react through relevant channels after the autopsy ends. Once you violate any of the above items, I will take you out of the room."

Cui Cui Qishan looked gentle, but his tone became strict like a teacher, then added: "The translator will translate what our personnel say to you. You can only talk to your translator in a low voice, the sound must be very low, and the frequency must be very low."

The translator accompanying him wore a mask and looked at the corpse with a frown, then turned his head away hurriedly. Clearly, he wasn't a forensic professional.

"Is it so fast to fly from Italy to Beijing?" Zeng Zeng Lianrong looked at the two of them sensitively.

"It's also a private jet. It should have flown over after the crash." Cui Cui Qishan curled his lips.

Jiang Yuan said at this time: "Let's officially start. Others stand on the side. Um... the pilot's upper body clothing has burn marks, only a few strips left, stuck to his body... The lower limbs and legs have high-temperature melting marks, shoe soles... partially carbonized."

While Jiang Yuan was speaking, he began to undress the pilot with Zeng Zeng Lianrong.

Then, Jiang Yuan looked at his body roughly, then returned to the head and checked from top to bottom:

"Mouth and nose have no obvious burns, but the mucosa is congested."

"Auricle has no burns, no smoke dust deposition in the ear canal."

"No ligature marks or sharp weapon injuries."

Jiang Yuan checked down:

"Slight burns on the inner side of the forearm, no burns on the palms. Comminuted fractures of the upper limbs."

"Chest has burns, has safety belt ligature marks. Chest clothing is burned."

"Thighs are carbonized, dry, no liquid exudation."

"Lower leg skin is carbonized, muscles are partially exposed."

"Shoe soles are completely carbonized, skin on the back of the feet has dry burns."

"No electric shock spots on the whole body, no electric shock injuries. No metal fragments left. No fuel burning residues."

Zeng Zeng Lianrong couldn't help but look at Jiang Yuan. He had actually done an autopsy on a plane crash corpse once, but that was when he was young, assisting the big shots of the previous generation.

However, although a plane crash has certain characteristics, in essence, it is similar to the corpses of other means of transport, or rather, it has considerable commonality.

Forensic experts always focus on the corpse, and as a senior forensic expert today, Zeng Zeng Lianrong only needs to listen to the key points reported by Jiang Yuan to know what he is analyzing.

Especially the parts he reported as not having, which itself means he is doing the elimination method.

Electric shock spots and electric shock injuries point to short circuits in electrical appliances, metal fragments point to explosions and firewalls failing, fuel burning residues point to, meaning it's very likely there are no short circuits in electrical appliances, fuel burning residues point to fuel system leaks or arson...

Although there is no evidence of these, it doesn't prove that these reasons don't exist. But in Zeng Zeng Lianrong's view, this shows that Jiang Yuan clearly knows what he is doing.

Autopsy is actually solving a puzzle. Forensic experts are constantly arguing about the cause of death by discovering evidence and discovering "no evidence". No forensic expert really lists all the haves and have-nots on the corpse first, and then makes inferences.

This is like doing math problems. You don't really infer the answer through the knowns. You have to have an expected judgment in your heart first, know which formulas and solutions it roughly applies to, and then infer and exclude, and then apply the appropriate formula to solve the problem.

Autopsy is about the same. You look at the corpse first, through the known information, guess roughly what the cause of death is, and then prove the cause of death or exclude the cause of death according to the discovered evidence.

For example, no ligature marks and sharp weapon injuries can rule out with high probability that there is a 007 sitting in the back row of the plane in the instructor's seat who killed the pilot and then jumped with a parachute and ran away.

And carefully observing whether there are electric shock spots and electric shock injuries is because electrical circuit problems are very common failures on light aircraft and are also the cause of crashes.

Similarly, Alessio from Italy was also listening carefully to what Jiang Yuan said. His position wasn't good for seeing every place on the autopsy table clearly, but he could judge Jiang Yuan's basic level from Jiang Yuan's technique and examination conclusions. In just a few minutes, Alessio became well-behaved.

Zeng Zeng Lianrong silently assisted Jiang Yuan. As long as Jiang Yuan knows what he is doing, Zeng Zeng Lianrong doesn't need to worry about his own strength.

Jiang Yuan's body surface examination was carried out back and forth for a while, then he asked for a knife and began to dissect.

Zhan Kan also stepped forward to assist, and another forensic expert was on the side to record, which belonged to an extremely luxurious configuration.

The three cavities of the corpse were already empty, and after dissecting, they were clean, as if they had been removed as a whole.

In this way, heart blood, stomach solution, etc., were all gone. The prepared organ buckets were empty, brain slices didn't need to be done, and even the blood in the corpse was pitifully little.

Jiang Yuan then took a small amount of residual blood, took more muscles, fat, and skin, then took nails and bones, and then said to Zhan Kan beside him: "Try to do the toxicology test as completely as possible, and prepare a few more specimens."

After speaking, Jiang Yuan looked around.

Everyone was stable and didn't say a word, including Alessio.
