Chapter 447 The Body in the Trunk

Standing next to the two cars, Chen Yan observed carefully.

The sedan should be driving normally from east to west, and the SUV should be driving from west to east but it entered the opposite lane and drove in the opposite direction.

That's why the two cars collided head-on.

"Where are the drivers of the two cars?"

Liu Qingshan shook his head: "When our detectives arrived at the scene, the drivers of the two cars were gone."

No driver was found?

The driver of the sedan is easy to say, it should be the murderer himself.

A traffic accident occurred, and it is understandable to abandon the car and flee.

After all, this guy's trunk is still filled with dismembered bodies.

But the driver of the SUV was not at the scene, which is a problem.

Two possibilities.

First, the driver of the sedan was afraid that the other party would call the police, so he took action directly and killed the other party.

Of course, this possibility is relatively small.

After all, the time of the crime was too short, and the other party might have killed someone, but if the body was not left behind, it would not be logical.

After all, if the driver of the sedan had the time and ability to take away the other party's body, it would be unreasonable to leave the dismembered body in the trunk of the sedan.

Second, the driver of the SUV fled on his own.

Judging from the situation at the scene, the driver of the off-road vehicle should be the responsible party for the traffic accident.

The road where the accident occurred is called Linjiang Road.

It is a two-way single-lane road.

The black car involved in the accident was driving normally from east to west.

The off-road vehicle crossed the solid yellow line and invaded the opposite road, which obviously violated the traffic rules.

The off-road vehicle driver was likely to be driving under the influence of alcohol, as they could collide on such a road.

So they abandoned the car and fled after the traffic accident.

This is also a common way for many drivers who violate traffic rules and have traffic accidents to escape punishment.

As long as the car is left, it is not considered as driving away.

If it is drunk driving, wait until you sober up and deal with it, no trace will be left.

The scene of the traffic accident has been completely blocked.

Because Linjiang Road where the accident occurred is not a main road, there are not many vehicles coming and going.

Chen Yan put on gloves, walked around the scene of the accident, and then carefully checked the condition of the car.

The paint on the hood of the black car has peeled off, and it can be seen that the car should be quite old.

The front of the car was seriously damaged, but it did not invade the cockpit.

The door on the driver's side of the car was intact and open.

There was no airbag inside, but there was no blood.

Although the traffic accident caused damage to the vehicle, it was obvious that the driver was not injured.

There was no object in the back seat of the car, and there was no debris in the passenger seat.

Going around to the other side, Chen Yan gently pulled open the passenger door.

Although this car is old and the airbag did not pop out, it is of good quality.

After the car accident, the doors were not deformed or damaged.

Open the glove box of the passenger seat, it is still empty.

There is nothing in the armrest box in the middle of the gear lever.

This car...

In general private cars, whether it is the glove box or the armrest box, even if the person who loves cleanliness will put some debris in it.

However, this car is different. In addition to the glove box and the armrest box, the handles of the four doors are also empty.

It seems to have been specially cleaned.

"Have you checked the license plate?"

Liu Qingshan has always been by Chen Yan's side: "We have checked it."

"It is basically certain that it is a fake license plate car. We have sent the vehicle frame number back and are comparing whether it is a stolen vehicle."

Fake license plate car...

No wonder.

It seems that this car is very likely the vehicle used by the murderer to dump the body.

At the rear of the car, there are four black plastic bags in the trunk.

With just one glance, Chen Yan knew that the body inside is very likely to be the same victim as the head found in the self-built housing area.

Because the black plastic bags that wrap these body fragments are of the same material and size.

There are four plastic bags in total, and they were all opened when Chen Yan arrived.

Opening the olfactory gene lock, there is still a faint smell similar to disinfectant.

"The four bags contain both upper limbs, both lower limbs and torso."

"I took a preliminary look and found that there are many scars on the body, and they are superimposed on antemortem and postmortem injuries."

Premortem injuries and postmortem injuries are still relatively easy to distinguish during autopsy.

For example, scratches from sharp weapons.

If it is an injury before death, because the skin has an active reaction, there will be obvious ectropion.

However, if the same sharp weapon scratches the deceased after death, the skin will not have ectropion.

There is also a different state of blood coagulation.

If it is an injury before death, except for the rupture of the aorta, other wounds will basically have blood coagulation.

This has little to do with the size of the wound.

It is just that the blood coagulation phenomenon is more obvious in small wounds, and not so obvious in large wounds.

But it can also be observed at the edge of the wound.

However, if the blood on the hand loses its activity after death, the body function is gone, and the blood stops flowing, there will be no blood coagulation.

The judgment of antemortem and postmortem injuries can often help the autopsy personnel determine the cause of death of the deceased.

Some murderers, in order to cover up the real cause of death of the deceased, will stab the deceased after death to create a false death-causing injury.

Therefore, judging antemortem injuries or postmortem injuries is a compulsory course for detectives.

Chen Yan opened a plastic bag, and what was exposed was a section of his right arm.

As Liu Qingshan said, there are many wounds on the arm, crisscrossing.

There are scratches from rolled-up sharp weapons, burns from cigarette butts, whip marks, and some bite marks on the wrist.

Judging from the skin damage and muscle rupture, it should be the traces of dog bites.

Moreover, the wounds on the arm are both antemortem and mortal wounds.

This shows that the murderer not only abused the victim before the death, but also committed violent acts after death.

This situation...

is rare.

There must be a purpose for killing.

Either it is a love killing, a revenge killing, or killing for money.

But no matter why, the murderer must have a purpose for killing.

Moreover, generally speaking, the direct consequence of the murderer's killing is death.

Once dead, it's over.

Those who continue to treat the corpse violently after the death of the deceased either have a deep hatred or other special reasons.

Otherwise, who would whip the corpse for no reason?

Turning over the arm, there is an obvious rough cross-section at the fracture of the upper arm.

The murderer should have used a hacksaw to cut off the arm and dismembered the body.

The second black plastic bag next to it contained the right leg.

Like the right arm, the wounds were intertwined, and there were also injuries before and after death.

Liu Qingshan had arranged for people to mark the serial numbers of the four plastic bags.

The third bag contained the left arm.

It was still covered with scars, but Chen Yan found the difference at a glance.

The skin color of this arm was different from that of the right arm just now.

The skin color of the right arm and the right leg that Chen Yan just saw was the same, but the skin color of this left arm seemed to be lighter.

He stretched out his fingers and pressed it lightly, but the skin did not rebound and was a little cold.

Chen Yan took the arm out of the black plastic bag, and it was still slightly cold.

It was actually frozen!

Moreover, the size and color of the arm were obviously different from the right arm just now.

These bodies...

do not belong to the same person!

Liu Qingshan, who was following Chen Yan, was slightly stunned.

Although the four bags were opened, Liu Qingshan did not open them to look at them.

So he didn't notice this abnormality.

Seeing that Chen Yan's left arm was obviously different from the previous one, Liu Qingshan's face suddenly changed.

"Chen Yan, this... is not one person's?!"

Gah!
