Legendary FBI Detective Chapter 579

Chapter 579 [Serial Murder Case] ​​x2

 Trace examination department, autopsy room.

This autopsy room is not big, and there are not many forensic doctors. On weekdays, up to 2-5 corpses can be processed at the same time.

Today's situation is very special. Not only are several people busy in the autopsy room, but there are also people going in and out of the morgue next to it. From time to time, you can hear a few greetings starting with "F".

Luo An took Mona, Michelle and Lacey into the trace examination department and soon met a tall, thin, white man with an ugly face, about 50 years old.

The other party is the old forensic doctor of the trace examination department, Coward.

Seeing the other person coming, Luo An quickly smiled and stretched out his hand:

 Hello, Mr. Coward, I am Roan Greenwood.

 “I heard about you, Captain Greenwood.”

Coward took off his gloves, put on a smile on his face and reached out to shake hands with Roan:

“I didn't expect you would give us such a big gift the first time we met.”

In addition to the nine newly discovered corpses that Roan and Mona dug up on the beach, Lacey and Michelle also brought back five still existing corpses from the Long Island police.

 “Good job, Mr. Coward.”

Because of this, although Coward Forensic Doctor and others were very unhappy, they had a good attitude towards Luo An and others. After a few simple greetings, they took the three of them to the morgue not far away.

 Luo An nodded and asked:

 Coupled with the two corpses that Winslow had just recovered from the seabed and just transported here, it means that the Trace Inspection Section needs to process a full 16 corpses in a short period of time.

Forensic doctor Kovard walked to the first metal car in the first row, lifted up the white cloth, revealing the slightly ferocious body inside, and explained calmly:

“The specific autopsy results of the corpses you sent cannot be obtained in a short time.

The girl that Coward's medical examiner mentioned was Chenelle standing behind her.

"I haven't asked for the identity information of these corpses. My students are handling them. You can go find him later."

“I have been working here for more than 20 years, and this is the first time I have seen someone like you, Team Leader Greenwood, where the corpses delivered at one time almost fill the morgue floor, and the metal carts are almost not enough.”

Considering the long time and some other reasons, 6 of the 11 corpses have been cremated by the Long Island police, leaving only photos and other physical evidence and other clues.

Luo An understood that the staff such as Coward's forensic doctor were under a lot of pressure, so he specially asked Lacey to give them some coffee beans and other small gifts.

Forensic doctor Kovard walked into the morgue first and complained:

 But during the autopsy, I found that there were some problems with their cause of death, so I asked the girl to call you over. "

Walked into the air-conditioned morgue and turned on the lights. There were two rows of metal cars parked in the huge room, with victims covered with white sheets.

  But this time the number of victims was 11+9+2, and the number was as high as 22.

 Luo An smiled bitterly and shook his head. He had encountered serial murder cases in the past, as well as cases with many victims and many corpses.

 “Can you introduce the problem you are talking about?”

There were 14 corpses sent to the Trace Inspection Department within one day.

“These people are the corpses you sent.”

 Trace Inspection Section: “…”

 “The causes of death are different.”

And the first victim died in 1992. This is the first time Luo An has encountered a case that has spanned more than ten years.

Forensic doctor Coward did not talk nonsense and introduced directly:

“The 12 corpses in the first row on the left all have injuries to their throat bones, indicating that they died from the same cause, that is, they all suffered from neck compression before death and eventually died of suffocation.”

"first row?"

Hearing the words spoken by the forensic doctor Kovad, Luo An's eyes moved slightly and he looked at the second row of metal cars on the right, frowning slightly:

 “Did the victims in the second row die from a different cause?”

"It's indeed different." Coward's forensic doctor nodded, covered the white cloth on the first row of corpses, walked to the second row of metal cars, lifted the white cloth on one of the corpses, and introduced expressionlessly:

“These eight people all had bullet holes in their skulls on the back of their heads, indicating that they were all shot from behind.

In addition, the corpses of three of the eight people were in good condition. Tests revealed that they had binding marks on their wrists, and their body movements showed kneeling when they died.

 So my students speculated that these eight people should have been kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs, and someone executed them from behind with a gun. "

After the introduction of Coward's forensic doctor, Mona, Lacey, and Michelle suddenly looked very ugly, and a not-so-good idea and guess came to their minds.

Luo An's expression remained unchanged, he pondered for a few seconds, and then asked:

“What about the last two people? What was their cause of death?”

“The cause of death of these two people is different from the previous ones.”

Forensic doctor Kovard chuckled, walked to the last two corpses in the second row, lifted up the white cloth and introduced:

“These two men have no problem with their throat bones and no bullets in their skulls.

But the skulls behind their heads all showed signs of damage caused by being hit with sticks. "

Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded and continued:

“You mean, a man took a stick and beat these two men to death in the back.”

“The autopsy results have not been completed yet. I don't know yet whether they were poisoned before their death.”

Coward's forensic doctor covered him with a white cloth and said very strictly:

“I can only say that based on the traces on the body, your conclusion is fine for the time being.”

 “OK, thank you very much for your help.”

Luo An stretched out his hand and shook hands with Coward's forensic doctor, exchanged a few words with him, and led them out of the trace examination department.

Stepping into the elevator and pressing the floor button, Luo An pondered for a few seconds and asked:

 “What do you think?”

Mona, Michelle, Lacey and Chenelle looked at each other and were silent for a long time. Lacey said first:

 “I have a bad guess.”

 “What guess?”

 Lacie swallowed and said:

 “We won't encounter two serial murder cases this time, right?”

  “…”xN

The elevator was very quiet. Lacey looked around at the expressions on the faces of Mona, Michelle and Chenelle, and asked:

 “Do you think the same as me?”

Mona, Michelle and Chenelle looked at each other and nodded. Chenelle crossed her arms over her chest and frowned:

“Most serial killers have their own unique killing methods, and over time, they develop a habit that is unique to them, and some serial killers are even proud of it.

Of the corpses in the morgue just now, some died of suffocation and some died of gunshot wounds to the back of the head. The guy who attacked them was obviously not the same person. "

 Before Lacey could speak, Luo An added:

“Besides, don't forget the two victims who were killed with sticks.”

 The elevator door opened, and several people filed out. Mona said with an ugly face:

“So, this time it was actually three serial murders?”

Everyone walked into the office area. When Luo An was thinking about the case, Lacey suddenly said with a strange expression:

“Winslow hasn't come back yet, how about letting him continue searching on the beach?

He just led people to search a small area and found two new corpses.

 The beach is so long. If you continue to search a little bit, you may find something new. "

  “…”xN

When several people heard this, they looked at Lacey speechlessly. Roan threw a bag of snacks to her and blocked her mouth. He looked at Chenille and asked:

"You said before that the murderer was found to be very arrogant. What exactly happened?"
