Chapter 447 [Policewoman and Police Dog 29]
At the same time, Qin Ming was filled with worry and uneasiness when he learned that Jiahui went to Shaba area.
However, due to poor local signals, he sometimes could not even contact Jiahui and could only learn about the current situation in Shaba through news reports.
Originally, Qin Ming had already booked a train ticket and was ready to go there in person, but the sudden case disrupted his plans.
Faced with a choice, on the one hand there is his beloved girlfriend, and on the other hand there is a case that needs to be solved urgently. Qin Ming wishes he could choose the former.
However, the reality of his responsibilities prevented him from doing so.
In desperation, Qin Ming, with some resentment, arrived at the scene of the crime with Dabao.
The cordon here was very long, but the body was not at the crime scene.
It turned out that since the crime scene was located at the junction of two cities, relevant personnel from the neighboring city arrived first and took the body away.
The forensic doctor at the junction of the neighboring city explained in detail: "The young couple claimed that they were frightened by an extremely tall ghost, and then they immediately called the police. When the police arrived, they found a man lying on his back with his head on the shore, his face covered with blood, and his chest and below soaked in water. When we first found the body, it still had a pulse, so we immediately performed first aid and sent it to 120, but he eventually died in the hospital. We carefully examined the trauma to the victim's head and found intracranial hemorrhage, which was obviously caused by a blow. However, the most confusing thing is the star-shaped wound on the victim's head. It is very special because star-shaped wounds usually lead to the formation of cystic structures under the skin. This kind of rubbing displacement often leaves dirt such as mud on the face, especially on the wound. However, these things were not found in the victim's wound."
Qin Ming observed the crime scene intently. He noticed that the deceased was only 1.68 meters tall, which was far from the two-meter ghost image described by the couple.
At the same time, there are many reeds growing around the crime scene. The lowest one is about 1.7 meters high, while the tallest ones can even reach more than 2 meters.
Where the dead lay, there were a great number of pebbles scattered about.
If the victim had hit these pebbles, displacement might indeed have occurred, and this possibility was even greater because the wounds were not covered with mud.
While Lin Tao carefully searched every inch of land by the lake, he muttered to himself: "Old Qin, there are no pebbles with blood stains here! All the clues seem to contradict each other. This is very likely not the first crime scene."
Qin Ming frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Perhaps there is another possibility. During the rescue, perhaps a police officer accidentally kicked a pebble into the water."
After saying this, he continued to examine the body intently, hoping to find some key clues.
Dabao, who was standing by, was puzzled by the fact that the two-meter-tall ghost that the couple saw did not match his actual height.
Qin Ming stared at the star-shaped wound on the deceased's head, and saw that it was filled with criss-crossing tissue bridges.
The skin on the forehead was extremely thin, and one could even clearly see the skull.
Judging from these signs, the injury should have been caused by a blunt object with a flat surface, and the pebble just met the requirements.
However, the volume of pebbles required to form such a wound must be quite large.
Lin Tao searched non-stop for pebbles with blood stains by the lake, but found nothing.
After a detailed CT scan of the deceased's brain, it was finally confirmed that the deceased did suffer a sudden head impact during exercise, causing a skull fracture.
Judging from the current situation, the accident was most likely caused by an accidental fall, which led to his unfortunate death.
Dabao looked at the body in confusion. She frowned and asked Qin Ming, "Based on my experience, collision injuries usually don't cause star-shaped wounds. Generally speaking, only deceleration injuries can form such scars. In addition, judging from the severity of the wound, if he could get medical treatment in time, he wouldn't have lost his life."
Qin Ming nodded calmly and responded: "That's true, but the deceased was already in a coma when he was found by the lake, and there were obvious signs of bleeding in his brain, which ultimately led to his death."
Then, Qin Ming carefully examined the nail marks on the deceased's arm and said with certainty: "These scratches were definitely not made by the deceased himself. Their location and shape indicate that this is most likely evidence left behind during an argument or fight with others."
Just then, Dabao suddenly noticed a peculiar tattoo on the corpse - a crab.
She pointed at the tattoo curiously and asked, "What does this tattoo mean? Is it related to the case?"
Qin Ming shook his head slightly, a hint of confusion in his eyes, "Maybe it's just a personal preference or some kind of symbolic meaning. However, we can't ignore any details, and further investigation is needed to determine its true meaning."
