Gui Jia's Second Young Master

Chapter 626 Local Detective VS China's Top Detective?!

"Director He, I'm a police officer, can I have a word with you?" The sudden voice seemed to catch the people inside off guard.

A low cough came from the other side, followed by the sound of someone standing up and approaching the door.

The door opened, and Director He, with what seemed like politeness, said to me, "Oh, it's Officer. You've come at just the right time. Because of the previous incident, Mr. Oshima is still suspended, and the families have been constantly asking me how this scoundrel could be so wicked as to defile a corpse!"

"That's an issue with your employee. You can hand him over to us. This fellow should be under control, right?"

"Yes, he's still here. Two of your colleagues are keeping an eye on him."

I really didn't know about this. But since I was here, I could take over at any time.

I first asked Director He, "So, this Mr. Oshima you mentioned, is he from Japan?"

"That's right. This man has been here for some time. It's said he failed in business in Shanghai and is desperately in need of money, so he had no choice but to come here!"

"Is that so? So you never knew about his behavior of insulting corpses, Director?"

"Of course I didn't know. Even if they did such things, they'd do them very discreetly. Wouldn't anyone do the same?"

"So, what kind of person is this Mr. Oshima?"

"This fellow, very quiet. Anyway, anyone who can do this job, even if they were outgoing before, will gradually become numb and indifferent under the influence of the funeral home. You know, we burn quite a few bodies here every day. I was a bit scared at first, but after a while, I felt nothing. Let alone him, most other funeral home employees are probably the same."

I actually agreed with that. The nature of the work was similar to that of our criminal investigators and forensic examiners. I used to be full of passion when dissecting corpses, but later I felt nothing. Of course, when encountering some interesting corpses, it was another matter. But such corpses should be rare under normal circumstances, unless it was some bizarre case.

Seeing that Director He had nothing more to tell me, I turned to find Mr. Oshima. With Director He's help, I quickly found the cremation worker. However, the few police officers who saw me arrive seemed a bit unwelcoming.

I noticed that there was a senior officer among them, and quite a few forensic examiners were also present. It seemed that some officers from the sub-bureau were handling the case.

"Colleague, we've already taken over here. You shouldn't interfere!" the detective captain said, hands in his pockets, looking over.

"Oh? May I ask which sub-bureau you are from?" I maintained my politeness.

"I'm from that sub-bureau. Do I need to tell you? Little officer!" the other party replied arrogantly and coldly.

I was instantly stunned and coughed. "It seems to be from the nearby Fangdi Town, near Huangquan Road."

"That's right. The funeral home here is under our jurisdiction. What's wrong? I'd like to ask which sub-bureau you are from."

Perhaps because I was in plainclothes, or perhaps they hadn't watched TV, he didn't know I was...

I said, "Can you handle this case?"

"Of course. What do you mean, little officer? Let me tell you, I, Nanmen Jiashi, am the ace detective of Fangdi Town!"

"Ace detective of Fangdi Town? Heh, interesting. Actually, I am also... It's okay, I'll come and learn from you! Mr. Ace Detective!"

"Hmph, then don't blink. You two, what did you find out just now?" Nanmen Jiashi, like a Conan, looked arrogantly at his two colleagues beside him.

But I was internally complaining. Now we should be getting the forensic report on Oshima's body and also comparing it with Wu Bingqiu's internal sample. However, they should have already done that. If semen stains were found, Oshima could be taken down. But things didn't seem to be going smoothly.

"That guy refuses to admit he assaulted Ms. Wu!"

"How could that be? Forensic examiners, didn't you find anything?"

Nanmen Jiashi said, and the forensic examiners awkwardly replied, "Actually, we've done the tests, but strangely, there are no semen stains from the suspect in the victim's body..."

No semen stains? Could it be that the suspect used special methods to clean the corpse every time he defiled it? Wap.kanshuWu.net

As I was thinking, Nanmen Jiashi also said, "You're quite clever, aren't you? Used alcohol, perhaps?"

Hearing Nanmen Jiashi say this, I suddenly remembered something and asked to see the report. The guy didn't refuse and had a forensic examiner hand it to me.

When I took it and looked, the lower body appeared dry, and no suspect's DNA was detected in the vagina.

Dry? It definitely wasn't cleaned with alcohol. To achieve such a result, I thought of caustic soda. This was a method used by ancient Egyptians because caustic soda is a naturally occurring mineral salt with special drying and preservative properties. It could dry the skin and kill bacteria. However, it is also very effective for cleaning corpses in modern times, and after use, it's often not easy to detect its components. The report in my hand didn't mention it.

"Forensic examiner, you know caustic soda, right? Can't it be detected?"

"Of course I know. Actually, seeing that kind of dry reaction, I was also thinking if it was caustic soda, but no similar components were found in the analysis."

It seemed it wasn't caustic soda either. When cleaning corpses, one might come into contact with a certain amount of thiols, putrescine, and other substances. Therefore, one should wear a gas mask with activated carbon filtration to remove the foul odor. Hands that come into contact with the body should be gloved, and special care should be taken to prevent hand injuries to avoid infection from bacterial toxins and poisoning. After performing corpse cleaning operations and before meals, hands must be thoroughly washed. In addition, to prevent anaerobic wound infections (such as tetanus, gas gangrene, etc.), personnel performing corpse cleaning may be vaccinated with immune serum if necessary. These are basic common knowledge for funeral home staff.

They also often used lime water and black ash to absorb the odorous substances from the corpse, so that the corpse would not have too much peculiar smell. Otherwise, these people probably wouldn't dare to defile corpses.

At this moment, I approached Toshio Oshima (the suspect). As he was being restrained by the officers, I immediately recognized him. "You're the suspect?"

"That's right, but I really didn't do it, Officer. I've been wrongly accused by them."

"But Wu Bingqiu said so. How do you explain that?"

"That old hag must have slandered me. She was very cooperative at the time!"

"Cooperative? Are you saying she was cooperative while you were raping her?"
