The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 672 Scene Investigation, Victim's Identity

Although Qin Chuan hadn't been to many crime scenes before, he was still very cautious and careful in this regard, thanks to the system's reward of crime scene investigation skills. While he didn't have much experience with the details, he wouldn't make any basic mistakes.

After putting on gloves and shoe covers, the new ship approached the crime scene.

Generally, criminal police officers conducting on-site investigations wear masks, but Qin Chuan did not.

The scene was quite bloody, but when Qin Chuan entered the lecture hall, he smelled another rather peculiar odor hidden beneath the blood.

But what exactly does this smell like?

Qin Chuan was a little unsure for a moment.

As you walk from the entrance of the lecture hall into the space, the closer you get to the location of the corpse and the surrounding area, the more intense the atmosphere seems to become.

Step into the blackboard of Qin Chuan and observe carefully.

After the entire human skin was peeled off, it underwent some cleaning. It seems that some scraps of the skin were cut off with knives and then made into something resembling a butterfly.

Carefully observe the position of the human skin fixed on the blackboard and the tools used; the other party used thumbtacks to press the human skin onto it.

People who frequently commit murder know that human skin is not actually that easy to peel off.

Compared to the skin of other animals, human skin is more delicate and its elasticity and toughness are not particularly good.

The perpetrator must have used some kind of knife during the skinning process, causing significant harm to the human body. Some of the skins on the blackboard are incomplete, pieced together from various parts.

Turning his head, Qin Chuan looked at the victim kneeling on the ground. Judging from his physical characteristics, he was a male.

The blood-red muscle was covered with numerous crisscrossing knife scars, likely left by the suspect when he broke the skin.

The fatal injury should have involved a ruptured carotid artery, and the large amount of blood gushing out should have started from the carotid artery.

The reason the corpse was able to kneel on the ground was mainly because a chair was tied to its back.

However, the chairs in the lecture hall are all fixed to the ground. This chair did not come from this classroom; it must have been brought from somewhere else.

Qin Chuan observed very carefully, not missing any details.

The skin on the deceased's hands and feet was still intact, indicating that the assailant must have made a loop around the wrists and ankles before cutting the skin.

Based on the observation of the skin and the signs of life on the wounds, the deceased was already dead when the skin was peeled off.

The wounds on a corpse can indicate whether the deceased was injured before death or insulted after death.

The victim's skin showed no signs of life, no signs of tightness after being cut, and no signs of blood clotting, indicating that the suspect performed the skin manipulation after the victim's death.

Has the victim's identity been confirmed?

Zhang Qiang quickly replied, "The identity of the deceased has not yet been confirmed. We have asked the fire department to start checking if any students have gone missing. We did not find any identification information about the victim at the scene. There was no ID card, no mobile phone, and not even any clothes."

Apart from the corpse and the human skin on the blackboard, there was nothing else at the crime scene; the surrounding area was covered in blood.

Qin Chuan has already sent people to collect footprints from the bloodstains to see if they can make any discoveries through footprint identification and analysis.

To some extent, having sex on the campus of Linzhou University is not a wise choice, because there are many surveillance cameras on campus, which could very well capture some specific information about the other person.

During the on-site investigation, Qin Chuan focused on figuring out exactly what the smell he had detected was.

The smell was somewhat familiar; Qin Chuan should have smelled it before, but for some reason, he couldn't quite place it.

As the deputy director of the Linzhou Public Security Bureau in charge of criminal investigation, the occurrence of such a murder case is, frankly, not a big deal for a young man.

In the cases he investigated involving organized crime, each criminal group was involved in more than one murder.

However, when a murder occurs, the current requirement is that all murder cases must be solved.

A moment later, the criminal investigation team and forensic doctors from the Criminal Investigation Brigade also arrived at the scene.

"First, we will investigate the scene and further determine the cause and time of death. After all the preparations are completed this afternoon, Zhang Qiang, please make the arrangements so we can organize a case analysis meeting."
