Chapter 54 Who catches whom?
“Could it be that there is an error because it is frozen?”

This was the first time that Du Yu doubted Xu Yiqing's judgment.

Not to mention him, even Xu Yiqing himself couldn't figure out what was going on. There was a serious divergence between professional knowledge and common sense.

How could Zou Yi have died two months ago?

And it’s almost the same time as He Yunke’s death!
He put all this aside and chose to trust his hard work and experience: "Send the body back to the forensic department. I will go back and perform an autopsy to confirm the exact time of death and the identity of the deceased."

Lin Sheng nodded, and immediately began to hand over the work to other police colleagues at the scene, and contacted the clerks of the Forensic Department to prepare the files.

Fingerprints may be forged, but DNA is definitely accurate. There are no lies under the scalpel.

If modern forensic medicine cannot even confirm a person's identity, how can it be worthy of the development of science and technology and the resentful souls on the dissecting table?

But the prerequisite is that this person is a dead person.

Xu Yiqing can only be 100% sure of the identity of the dead, but the living are most likely to be overlooked.

Come to think of it, it seemed that when everyone first saw Zou Yi at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, they all assumed that she was He Yunke's wife...

After all, He Yunke's colleagues knew her, there was nothing unusual with her child, and Du Yu had registered her ID card information around the time she reported her disappearance.

Think about it carefully, how can we determine a person’s true identity?

Isn’t that enough?
Unable to figure it out, Xu Yiqing felt a headache, so he simply stopped thinking about it and walked into the living room, "Let me take a look at the autopsy report."

The autopsy report was in Du Yu's hand. The two stood in front of the window, opened it a little, felt the chilly air outside, and read the autopsy report together.

"Dead: Female, bone age estimated to be 35 years old, had sexual intercourse before death, and died more than hours ago."

"There are a small amount of post-deposition livor mortis on the back, chest and right torso of the deceased, and these livor mortis have obvious hemorrhage spots. There is a large area of ​​dark purple livor mortis on the left side of the deceased. It is estimated that the deceased was lying on his back 30 minutes to 2 hours after death, and was then moved, causing the livor mortis to appear in a new lower part."

"The color of the corpse spots is purple-red, which does not match the color characteristics of death from freezing or poisoning. It is confirmed to be formed under normal temperature."

"The cornea was cloudy, the pupil was not transparent, no obvious green patches were found in the lower abdomen, and the autopsy confirmed that the large intestine was not rotten, and it was determined that the patient was frozen within 24 hours after death."

"There were obvious signs of compression on the victim's neck, and after the autopsy, there were contusions and blood clots on the tibia. The murderer used both hands to strangle the victim, with his thumbs pressing against the victim's throat and the other fingers pressing on both sides of the neck, pushing the larynx backwards and causing mechanical asphyxiation."

"The deceased's face was cyanotic and swollen, his eyeballs were protruding, his conjunctiva had ecchymotic hemorrhages, he had rose teeth, he had incontinence, and the autopsy revealed the presence of emphysema and pulmonary edema."

"In summary, the characteristics of the body are consistent with mechanical asphyxiation. It is determined that the deceased died of asphyxiation caused by neck compression, and the time of death was more than 60 hours."

"Note: This is irrelevant to the cause of death of the deceased. A large number of bruises were found on the deceased's body. After identification, it was found that they were caused by beatings over the years. It is suspected that the deceased suffered long-term domestic violence before his death."

Du Yu read quietly, his eyes having already swept to the signature at the bottom of the autopsy report.

"Reporting to: Medical Examiner."

There was no name, just the word "forensic doctor" signed.

It is common sense that even ordinary people understand that autopsy is the work of forensic doctors, and signing the autopsy document is simply unnecessary.

But Xu Yiqing and Du Yu both knew what this forensic doctor meant.

Xu Yiqing said: "It's the [forensic doctor]."

The person codenamed [Forensic Doctor] in the photo!
Du Yu looked at the report with a serious expression: "I have a strong sense of déjà vu. In addition to this report, there should be three more words."

After that he turned the report over.

Sure enough, on the back of the report there were three powerful words written in pen.

Come catch me.

The entire report was typed, only these three words were handwritten.

And the handwriting is the same as the photo No. 1 found in Liu Qing’s home in Baxia Village…

Xu Yiqing sighed: "It's very similar to my handwriting again." Without any explanation, Du Yu knew that Xu Yiqing must be unaware of it.

He would not even consider mental illnesses such as schizophrenia. Zhou Shi, a psychologist, is right next to Xu Yiqing. If Xu Yiqing really has any mental illness, wouldn't Zhou Shi be able to discover it?

Oh, right, Zhou Shi.

Since the code names and people in the photos are involved, it becomes the work of the [Accomplice] task force and is no longer a simple criminal case.

So Du Yu also called Zhou Shi, and Zhou Shi arrived at the scene shortly afterwards.

She stood by the window, looking at the report with a suspicious expression. Her pretty profile, illuminated by the morning sun, showed less laziness and more seriousness.

After a moment, she turned and looked at the two of them.

Xu Yiqing asked: "Did you find anything?"

Zhou Shi said, "You can be sure that the notes left by the [accomplice] were all typed, right?"

Xu Yiqing nodded: "Yes."

Du Yu continued: "The handwriting on Photo No. 1 and this autopsy report are both handwritten."

Suddenly Du Yu was stunned, and then he showed a suspicious expression: "You don't mean to say that these were left by two different people?"

Zhou Shi said: "It is very possible. The first two notes from the accomplice were printed in similar specifications. I think it was because of her cautious personality and her desire to show this personality. As for the handwriting later..."

She glanced at Xu Yiqing and continued, "Putting aside the fact that his handwriting is very similar to Yiqing's, let's just talk about the logic behind it. The person who left his handwriting must have a sense of ease and confidence... Boss Du, under what circumstances would you deliberately write your name stroke by stroke with a fountain pen?"

Du Yu thought for a moment and answered, "When signing."

“Can you write your name beautifully?”

"Of course," Du Yu nodded, "The purpose of practicing calligraphy is to show it to others!"

Zhou Shi nodded: "That's what I mean. Words are written for people to see. And as the saying goes, one can tell a person's true character by his handwriting. Judging from the handwriting of the codename [Forensic Doctor], he has full confidence in himself. He is calm and not afraid at all."

Du Yu frowned and pounded the table with his fist, making a barely audible sound. "Too arrogant! One accomplice is fine, but now there's another forensic doctor who doesn't take the police seriously!"

"I actually have other ideas about this." At this point, Xu Yiqing said, "Logically, the forensic doctor is on the side of the police, right? Dissecting the body is a disguised way of tracking down the murderer. So this autopsy report must not have been written by the [accomplice]."

"Based on the premise of order, I think the [forensic doctor] and [accomplice] may be on the opposite side."

After hearing this, Du Yu and Zhou Shi fell into deep thought.

The more Du Yu thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.

At the same time, Zhou Shi also put forward a bold hypothesis: "Is it possible that this report is not only intended for us to see?"

"Including the photo at Liu Qing's home, we all thought that the person whose face was crossed out was her... In fact, this idea was correct, but we ignored the possibility that the person left in the photo might not be her, so when we got photo No. 2, we wondered why the person whose face was crossed out was a man."

Du Yu suddenly realized: "Photo No. 1 was taken by the [Forensic Doctor], so he crossed out his own face! And Photo No. 2 was given to us by the fake Zou Yi, so the [Forensic Doctor]'s appearance and code name can be seen in the photo, and only his own code name [Cleaner] was erased!"

The fake Zou Yi didn't want to destroy the photo and wanted to leave clues about the [forensic doctor] for the police!

Zhou Shi said: "The [forensic doctor] knew about her conspiracy with Liu Zhuhua and knew that she would definitely go to Liu Qing's house, so he left photo No. 1..."

He and Du Yu looked at each other, and both could see a sense of sudden enlightenment in each other's eyes.

"The words 'Come and catch me' written in pen on the back of Photo No. 1 and the autopsy report are actually a provocation from the [forensic doctor] to the [accomplice], not something the [accomplice] wrote to us!"

She was hunting him, and he left his signature and provocation with ease.

Come catch me.
