Timing and Subtitles Brought To You By Dr. Qin Forensic Team @ Viki

2
00:00:11,771 --> 00:00:15,021
The victim's is Hu Qi. 37 years old. He's a props maker that works here in the film production base.

3
00:00:15,021 --> 00:00:18,451
Murdering someone in a closed environment like this, perhaps the murderer has planned this for a long time?

4
00:00:18,451 --> 00:00:19,841
This is a homemade shotgun.

5
00:00:19,841 --> 00:00:20,701
This is his own gun.

6
00:00:20,701 --> 00:00:22,741
Based on the marks on this muzzle, I can confirm

7
00:00:22,741 --> 00:00:25,521
that this is the gun that wounded the victim.

8
00:00:25,521 --> 00:00:28,591
A wound like this one on the victim was probably made at close range.

9
00:00:28,591 --> 00:00:33,011
Our preliminary opinion is that the victim left home in the middle of the night with his gun. The gun went off accidentally and shot himself.

10
00:00:33,011 --> 00:00:33,981
He died from too much blood loss.

11
00:00:33,981 --> 00:00:36,411
This isn't an accident. It was a homicide.

12
00:00:36,411 --> 00:00:38,551
Where's the proof?

13
00:02:12,711 --> 00:02:15,461
Indeed, there are other injuries.

14
00:02:15,461 --> 00:02:19,901
Besides the gun wound on his leg, I can feel a hematoma in his occipitalis muscle.

15
00:02:19,901 --> 00:02:23,201
There's a slight abrasion on the skin.

16
00:02:23,941 --> 00:02:27,231
There's no wound, but there's an abrasion and a hematoma.

17
00:02:27,231 --> 00:02:32,891
This could have been caused by a blunt object.

18
00:02:33,721 --> 00:02:37,931
A wide, heavy, flat, and slightly rough blunt object.

19
00:02:37,931 --> 00:02:41,201
It's possible that he fell down himself. It's also possible that it's from another object.

20
00:02:41,201 --> 00:02:47,901
If he was hit with something, there might be residue
from the object in the victim's hair.

21
00:02:48,681 --> 00:02:52,221
It seems that we have found the object. These look like particles from a brick.

22
00:02:52,221 --> 00:02:53,221
- Do we need to open up his skull now?
- Yes.

23
00:02:53,221 --> 00:02:57,911
We need to or else we won't be able to confirm whether the head injury or the gun wound is the fatal injury.

24
00:02:57,911 --> 00:02:59,411
Okay.

25
00:03:10,541 --> 00:03:13,601
Sergeant Lin. We've found new clues.

26
00:03:15,511 --> 00:03:17,591
There's something wrong with this brick.

27
00:03:18,401 --> 00:03:21,011
There's so many bricks, how did you confirm it was this one?

28
00:03:21,011 --> 00:03:24,711
But this is the only brick with trails of blood and hair.

29
00:03:30,661 --> 00:03:33,451
There's indeed a contusion in the occipital region of the brain.

30
00:03:33,451 --> 00:03:36,221
But there's nothing in the frontal part opposite it.

31
00:03:36,221 --> 00:03:40,341
No wounds there means that the victim was hit by the brick and did not fall by himself.

32
00:03:40,341 --> 00:03:44,481
There was a vital reaction, meaning he was hit by the brick before he was shot.

33
00:03:44,481 --> 00:03:49,281
So right now, we can't rule out multiple suspects or that one suspect attacked him multiple times?

34
00:03:49,281 --> 00:03:54,051
I just don't understand why the unsubs would hit the victim with a brick when they were holding a gun?

35
00:03:59,551 --> 00:04:04,411
The victim was shot in the leg by a gun. The artery in his femur ruptured and he died due to loss of too much blood.

36
00:04:04,411 --> 00:04:08,861
At the same time, he also has a blunt injury in the occipital part of his brain. This is a homicide case.

37
00:04:08,861 --> 00:04:12,691
Based on what we know so far, it's like this. Last night, around 9:30,

38
00:04:12,691 --> 00:04:15,491
the victim went home, got some money, and then left again.

39
00:04:15,491 --> 00:04:19,611
After 20 minutes later, he went home again and went to the storage to pick up this gun.

40
00:04:19,611 --> 00:04:23,241
Approximately around 10 pm, he died.

41
00:04:23,241 --> 00:04:28,131
In our preliminary examination, we found 460 RMB in the victim's pant pocket.

42
00:04:28,131 --> 00:04:34,741
We have deduced two possible scenarios. The first, the victim got in a fight with someone so he went home to get the gun.

43
00:04:34,741 --> 00:04:38,951
But during the process of the fight, the opponent took the gun and killed the victim.

44
00:04:38,951 --> 00:04:44,271
The other is that the victim was drunk and got into an argument at the mahjong table so he went home to get the gun.

45
00:04:44,271 --> 00:04:47,391
But he was killed on his way back to the mahjong table.

46
00:04:47,391 --> 00:04:51,651
Right now, the four people that played mahjong with him are still suspects.

47
00:04:51,651 --> 00:04:54,341
It's very likely that these four people are covering for each other.

48
00:04:54,341 --> 00:04:59,871
We have yet to rule out multiple suspects or a single suspect who attacked multiple times.

49
00:05:00,991 --> 00:05:04,971
It's very likely that this Hu Qi had an economic conflict with them.

50
00:05:04,971 --> 00:05:09,621
Since they have conflict between them, bring the mahjong players back for questioning first.

51
00:05:09,621 --> 00:05:10,661
- Xiao Hei.
- Here.

52
00:05:10,661 --> 00:05:12,881
- Get it done.
- Yes.

53
00:05:13,541 --> 00:05:15,801
Let me report the results of the physical and chemical tests.

54
00:05:15,801 --> 00:05:20,441
The alcohol levels in the victim's blood reached 280 mg/ml.

55
00:05:20,441 --> 00:05:25,211
Reaching 80 mg/ml is already considered drunk. His level is already close to the lethal dose.

56
00:05:25,211 --> 00:05:28,951
Which means that the victim was severely intoxicated that time. At such high alcohol level,

57
00:05:28,951 --> 00:05:32,841
the victims's balance and coordination were very poor.

58
00:05:32,841 --> 00:05:35,381
If he got into a fight, his defense skill will also be very weak.

59
00:05:35,381 --> 00:05:40,991
Next, the minimal dust obtained from the victim's hair and the ones from the brick were found to be the same.

60
00:05:40,991 --> 00:05:46,321
Unfortunately, the surface of the brick is too rough. We've only found finger marks but not fingerprints.

61
00:05:46,321 --> 00:05:48,041
What about the result of the gun testing?

62
00:05:48,041 --> 00:05:53,001
We did a comparison with the gun parts and discovered that this gun was indeed personally made by the victim.

63
00:05:53,001 --> 00:05:57,361
And we also did a check on the gun's surface, but didn't find any useful fingerprint.

64
00:05:57,361 --> 00:05:58,811
Did you done any firing test?

65
00:05:58,811 --> 00:06:01,991
It's on-going. We will get the result later.

66
00:06:01,991 --> 00:06:07,381
Guys, cases involving guns are major cases. Since we don't have much evidence to support our case yet,

67
00:06:07,381 --> 00:06:11,791
we'll discuss further after interrogating the four mahjong players.

68
00:06:13,041 --> 00:06:14,481
Disperse.

69
00:06:18,451 --> 00:06:21,251
I'll go type the autopsy report first.

70
00:06:24,301 --> 00:06:27,951
Lao Qin, come with me to check the brick.

71
00:06:31,301 --> 00:06:36,471
These were the marks that appeared after we smoked this. There are very few finger marks, no fingerprints. At most, there are just some marks of knuckles.

72
00:06:36,471 --> 00:06:40,501
There is a finger mark here. It was left by the thumb, just half an knuckle.

73
00:06:40,501 --> 00:06:44,841
The other side has three finger marks, left namely by the index, middle, and ring finger, all are also not even half of an knuckle.

74
00:06:44,841 --> 00:06:46,871
That's right. I found that weird too.

75
00:06:46,871 --> 00:06:50,431
Wouldn't most people use one and a half to two knuckles when holding a brick?

76
00:06:50,431 --> 00:06:52,941
But the marks on this is so few and so small.

77
00:06:52,941 --> 00:06:56,071
Wouldn't most people use one and a half to two knuckles when holding a brick?

78
00:06:56,071 --> 00:06:58,651
Since there are no fingerprints, just give up.

79
00:07:00,701 --> 00:07:03,011
Hello. Qin Ming.

80
00:07:04,321 --> 00:07:05,861
It's from the Firearms Test Center.

81
00:07:05,861 --> 00:07:09,751
I got it. Okay. Thank you.

82
00:07:10,871 --> 00:07:14,441
The gun examination result has come out. The gun is just a normal self-made shotgun.

83
00:07:14,441 --> 00:07:17,771
But the gun maker didn't do a good job. There are some flaws with the gun.

84
00:07:17,771 --> 00:07:19,921
What do you mean?

85
00:07:19,921 --> 00:07:23,361
They said that there is a gap between the trigger bar and the gun bore.

86
00:07:23,361 --> 00:07:27,571
Every time he fires, there would be gunpowder leaking from the trigger bar.

87
00:07:28,491 --> 00:07:30,951
That's a great discovery.

88
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:33,981
I've checked the victim's skin and found no traces of gunpowder.

89
00:07:33,981 --> 00:07:39,211
- Didn't we already conclude that the victim didn't misfire and kill himself?
- But the killer's hand must have one.

90
00:07:39,211 --> 00:07:40,771
This is a clue and an evidence.

91
00:07:40,771 --> 00:07:47,611
I also thought about that problem. But the crime has happened last night. Even if there is gunpowder residues on his hand, he might have washed it off.

92
00:07:47,611 --> 00:07:50,971
There are guns who will leave gunpowder residues on the target's hand when they are fired.

93
00:07:50,971 --> 00:07:56,901
But I saw that gun used in the murder. It's too long. It's hard for a gun that long to leave any gunpowder residues on the victim.

94
00:07:56,901 --> 00:08:00,881
But I never thought there is a problem with the gun design, that gunpowder can leak out.

95
00:08:00,881 --> 00:08:04,281
You still haven't told me if gun powder residues can be washed off.

96
00:08:04,281 --> 00:08:08,911
When a gun is fired, the gunpowder is burned. Once it falls on your skin, it will burn it and make minute holes.

97
00:08:08,911 --> 00:08:16,011
These holes are enough to store the gunpowder inside it. Washing can wash off the superficial residues but not those inside these holes.

98
00:08:16,771 --> 00:08:17,971
Are they easy to find?

99
00:08:17,971 --> 00:08:23,421
We just need to use a magnifying glass to observe and an adhesive to absorb them. Prepare them. Let's return to the crime scene.

100
00:08:37,821 --> 00:08:41,141
Give me the brick.

101
00:08:41,141 --> 00:08:47,171
We already know that on top of this brick, there are fingertip impression on both sides, but no impression of the palm.

102
00:08:47,171 --> 00:08:50,641
A standard brick is 12 centimeters wide.

103
00:08:52,141 --> 00:08:54,971
An adult male can easily hold it.

104
00:08:54,971 --> 00:09:00,041
If you change to holding it with just your fingertips, not only will it require more effort, it is also illogical.

105
00:09:00,041 --> 00:09:04,851
This might means that the murderer's hand is very small. It might be a woman.

106
00:09:04,851 --> 00:09:09,251
But we can't remove the possibility that the murderer is a man with small hands.

107
00:09:11,031 --> 00:09:14,951
The murderer previously used a brick to hit the victim's occipital skull bone.

108
00:09:14,951 --> 00:09:19,911
But I checked the victim's head. Only the skin and subcutaneous areas have a hematoma.

109
00:09:19,911 --> 00:09:25,341
If there isn't any skull fracture, the injury on the brain is very mild. This means that the perpetrator only has  a very little strength.

110
00:09:25,341 --> 00:09:29,481
Adding these two points together, I still feel that the killer is a woman.

111
00:09:29,481 --> 00:09:36,591
But we've investigated and found Hu Qi to have no abnormal heterosexual relationship. Then which woman wanted to kill him?

112
00:09:36,591 --> 00:09:40,121
Let's talk about that later. Let's reconstruct the crime scene first.

113
00:10:01,421 --> 00:10:05,181
Hello. I am Li Dabao, a forensic investigator from Longfan Municipal Public Security Bureau.

114
00:10:05,181 --> 00:10:07,841
Hello, Officer Li. What's the matter?

115
00:10:07,841 --> 00:10:10,761
- Are you Hu Qi's wife?
- Yes.

116
00:10:10,761 --> 00:10:13,361
I want to talk to you to understand the situation.

117
00:10:13,361 --> 00:10:15,271
What situation do you want to understand?

118
00:10:15,271 --> 00:10:19,561
I want to know certain situations about you.

119
00:10:24,271 --> 00:10:27,631
The occipital side of the victim's head got hit by a brick.

120
00:10:27,631 --> 00:10:32,221
And then he fell on the ground and the gun also fell on his side.

121
00:10:32,221 --> 00:10:35,381
At this time, the murderer picked the gun,

122
00:10:35,381 --> 00:10:38,601
targeted his leg, and fired one shot.

123
00:10:38,601 --> 00:10:42,491
You're saying that the victim was shot while lying down?

124
00:10:43,171 --> 00:10:45,881
There is another possibility. The victim might also be standing.

125
00:10:45,881 --> 00:10:49,211
If that's the case the shooter is lying down. The bullet trajectory

126
00:10:49,211 --> 00:10:51,851
and the bones formed a specific angle.

127
00:10:51,851 --> 00:10:54,931
This gun is around 60 centimeters in length and the shot was fired in close range.

128
00:10:54,931 --> 00:10:58,851
If it was fired  upwards, you can also form the same angle.

129
00:11:01,011 --> 00:11:04,041
Hu Limiao said that he didn't hear shouting during the crime.

130
00:11:04,041 --> 00:11:08,101
This might mean that the victim isn't afraid of the killer and thought that she wouldn't dare shoot him.

131
00:11:08,101 --> 00:11:12,811
After getting shot, because of extreme shock, nonstop bleeding, and the effect of the alcohol,

132
00:11:12,811 --> 00:11:15,121
he wasn't able to shout.

133
00:11:15,121 --> 00:11:18,351
On the day of the crime, the front gates of this movie studio wasn't closed.

134
00:11:18,351 --> 00:11:21,561
Which means, the killer might not really from this studio.

135
00:11:21,561 --> 00:11:26,211
If she isn't from here, after firing, she surely will run towards this direction.

136
00:11:26,211 --> 00:11:29,901
If she ran to this direction, the wall would have blocked her.

137
00:11:29,901 --> 00:11:32,521
Hu Limiao and the others were playing mahjong. They totally couldn't see her.

138
00:11:32,521 --> 00:11:34,511
This is a major finding.

139
00:11:34,511 --> 00:11:37,661
Let us continue our investigation based on this then.

140
00:11:45,091 --> 00:11:46,831
Where is Li Dabao?

141
00:11:51,511 --> 00:11:54,191
- Drink some water.
- Thanks.

142
00:12:13,791 --> 00:12:16,411
What question do you want to ask me?

143
00:12:25,761 --> 00:12:29,611
I want you to tell me your husband, Hu Qi.

144
00:12:31,671 --> 00:12:34,821
My husband was a good man.

145
00:12:34,821 --> 00:12:37,871
He was honest and humble.

146
00:12:37,871 --> 00:12:41,401
He got along well with our neighbors.

147
00:12:41,401 --> 00:12:45,521
I married him since I was 18.

148
00:12:45,521 --> 00:12:48,051
Our relationship was also very good.

149
00:12:50,391 --> 00:12:53,391
Where did you get the wound on your face?

150
00:12:59,601 --> 00:13:04,931
Your finger joints are turning pale, suggesting you are very nervous.

151
00:13:04,931 --> 00:13:07,561
Your posture is defensive.

152
00:13:08,871 --> 00:13:13,801
Your facial complexion is yellowish, suggesting you've been in a chronic anxiety state.

153
00:13:13,801 --> 00:13:18,191
The wounds on your face were caused by repeated beatings.

154
00:13:18,191 --> 00:13:22,631
And the soda cans by the door, that's your alarm.

155
00:13:23,481 --> 00:13:27,351
Your marital relationship wasn't as good as what you said.

156
00:13:27,351 --> 00:13:32,381
You were very afraid of him, especially when you were asleep.

157
00:13:36,501 --> 00:13:41,271
Hu Qi frequently beat you up. Am I right?

158
00:13:45,421 --> 00:13:47,511
Why did you lie?

159
00:13:52,491 --> 00:13:55,231
When he got drunk, he became a monster.

160
00:13:56,351 --> 00:13:58,941
He hit me when he came home.

161
00:13:59,921 --> 00:14:05,191
I was always in fear. I get frightened hearing the door sound.

162
00:14:05,191 --> 00:14:08,731
That's why, I placed a pile of cans by the door.

163
00:14:08,731 --> 00:14:13,101
So that when the door opens and they fall, I'd be warned.

164
00:14:13,771 --> 00:14:17,251
I was unable to sleep every night.

165
00:14:18,461 --> 00:14:20,561
Why didn't you just leave him?

166
00:14:20,561 --> 00:14:25,291
I thought about it. I wanted to divorce him.

167
00:14:25,291 --> 00:14:30,261
I even thought of doing suicide. But I can't.

168
00:14:32,321 --> 00:14:35,321
My son is still so little.

169
00:14:37,711 --> 00:14:40,641
He is very obedient and sensible.

170
00:14:41,941 --> 00:14:48,001
He frequently got beaten up by his father, but he didn't cry.

171
00:14:48,001 --> 00:14:51,361
He was afraid that I'd feel bad.

172
00:15:00,521 --> 00:15:04,121
Can you tell me in details what happened last night?

173
00:15:16,301 --> 00:15:20,161
You always make those cans to guard against me, am I right?

174
00:15:20,161 --> 00:15:23,441
How dare you guard against me?!

175
00:15:31,801 --> 00:15:34,301
I'll kill you all.

176
00:15:36,831 --> 00:15:39,311
I'll kill you all.

177
00:15:46,631 --> 00:15:48,151
Hu Qi! Hu Qi!

178
00:15:48,151 --> 00:15:50,041
Leave!

179
00:15:57,181 --> 00:16:01,031
- Hu Qi, don't go anymore. I beg you.
- Get lost!

180
00:16:04,071 --> 00:16:08,021
I'll kill you all... Get lost!

181
00:16:09,371 --> 00:16:13,241
I'll kill them...

182
00:16:16,371 --> 00:16:18,391
I'll kill them--

183
00:16:30,121 --> 00:16:32,141
You hit me?

184
00:16:45,731 --> 00:16:48,261
I'll kill you...

185
00:16:50,981 --> 00:16:55,821
Shoot. Shoot.

186
00:16:57,761 --> 00:16:59,831
Shoot!

187
00:17:25,981 --> 00:17:29,461
Because you considered his goodness when he was not drunk,

188
00:17:29,461 --> 00:17:34,811
you didn't choose to shoot his head and instead fired on the leg, am I right?

189
00:17:38,111 --> 00:17:43,311
- But--
- But you didn't know that the femoral artery is one of the most important arteries in a human body.

190
00:18:55,901 --> 00:18:57,901
Hu Qi...

191
00:18:58,991 --> 00:19:03,351
Hu Qi...

192
00:19:23,851 --> 00:19:25,571
What happened?

193
00:19:37,891 --> 00:19:43,131
What happened?! What happened?

194
00:19:44,551 --> 00:19:49,711
Yueyue! Yueyue! What happened?

195
00:19:49,711 --> 00:19:52,951
- Mom... I...
- Hurry and say it.

196
00:19:52,951 --> 00:19:56,131
- Hu Qi is dead.
- Dead?

197
00:19:56,131 --> 00:20:00,021
I... I killed him.

198
00:20:00,101 --> 00:20:02,651
I killed him...

199
00:20:02,651 --> 00:20:06,451
Mom... I didn't mean to do it...

200
00:20:06,451 --> 00:20:08,531
Mom, I didn't mean to do it...

201
00:20:08,531 --> 00:20:13,031
Be quiet. Yueyue, come home with me.

202
00:20:13,031 --> 00:20:17,731
Get up. Get up. I don't want this son anymore. From today,

203
00:20:17,731 --> 00:20:23,171
you are my daughter. Let's go. Let's go home.

204
00:20:35,151 --> 00:20:40,751
Although you've admitted to the crime, we won't handcuffed you until we've verified that you're the perpetrator.

205
00:20:42,141 --> 00:20:46,671
But our medical examiner will still check the gunpowder residues on your hands.

206
00:20:56,971 --> 00:21:01,401
With such rough hand, no wonder we didn't find any fingerprint before.

207
00:21:17,601 --> 00:21:22,081
Officer, I beg you. Don't arrest Xiaoyue.

208
00:21:22,081 --> 00:21:27,021
She didn't do anything wrong. It was all my son's fault. I beg you.

209
00:21:27,671 --> 00:21:29,931
Xiaoyue...

210
00:22:23,361 --> 00:22:25,641
Died from injuries?

211
00:22:25,641 --> 00:22:27,831
This doesn't fit a murder case.

212
00:22:27,831 --> 00:22:32,351
First, before Zhang Yue shot him, she suffered domestic violence from the victim.

213
00:22:32,351 --> 00:22:37,201
Also, when she fired, she aimed for his leg. She didn't have the intent to kill him.

214
00:22:38,801 --> 00:22:40,431
I understand.

215
00:23:15,661 --> 00:23:18,131
Both are crazy.

216
00:23:23,281 --> 00:23:24,921
Qin Ming!

217
00:23:26,151 --> 00:23:29,271
Dabao is treating us to a meal. Why are you not going?

218
00:23:29,271 --> 00:23:31,781
Meal? Why?

219
00:23:31,781 --> 00:23:36,051
She said that we've closed the case, everyone was exhausted from it, so let's go out and have a meal together.

220
00:23:36,051 --> 00:23:39,681
- Where?
- She's waiting for you at the back of the building.

221
00:23:42,211 --> 00:23:44,251
How about you?

222
00:23:44,251 --> 00:23:49,011
Once I'm done writing the case closure report, I'll go look for you two.

223
00:23:57,741 --> 00:24:01,461
Thank you Lao Qin for treating us to a meal today.

224
00:24:02,481 --> 00:24:04,701
Aren't you the one treating?

225
00:24:06,611 --> 00:24:10,881
Why are you such a miser? How is it possible for me to treat you guys with my measly salary?

226
00:24:15,331 --> 00:24:18,671
Was Dabao very surprised?

227
00:24:23,051 --> 00:24:27,091
What kind of person are you? You want me to pay the meal...

228
00:24:31,701 --> 00:24:35,161
Was Dabao very surprised?

229
00:24:35,161 --> 00:24:37,441
You want me to pay the meal...

230
00:24:50,331 --> 00:24:51,851
Lin Tao...

231
00:24:51,851 --> 00:24:57,141
Right. He told me he'll be right here in a jiffy, but he's still not here. Could he have stood us up?

232
00:24:57,141 --> 00:24:59,521
Excuse me, sorry to bother you two. Your flowers.

233
00:24:59,521 --> 00:25:01,221
Give them to me.

234
00:25:03,351 --> 00:25:06,101
Do you want to order anything else?

235
00:25:06,101 --> 00:25:09,381
- No need.
- Okay.

236
00:25:09,971 --> 00:25:12,911
I just knew that no one will give me flowers.

237
00:25:29,311 --> 00:25:33,961
Did you receive the flowers? Do the dishes suit your taste?

238
00:25:33,961 --> 00:25:36,621
Was it very romantic?

239
00:25:42,061 --> 00:25:44,601
Is today your birthday?

240
00:25:47,771 --> 00:25:51,281
No. It's Lin Tao's death anniversary.

241
00:26:08,501 --> 00:26:13,511
Don't put it there. Those are evidences. If they get contaminated with flower pollen, the Trace Evidence Section will get mad at me.

242
00:26:17,621 --> 00:26:22,601
Since you are so interested with the corpse of these flowers, then please just take them home and give them to your baby.

243
00:26:22,601 --> 00:26:24,931
Or else, I will also dissect you.

244
00:26:44,031 --> 00:26:45,901
No, we--

245
00:26:56,301 --> 00:26:57,981
Wonderful.

246
00:27:02,111 --> 00:27:03,761
I wish you happiness.

247
00:27:50,881 --> 00:27:53,571
Oh, my! Something's on fire! Hurry and come out!

248
00:27:53,571 --> 00:27:56,411
Isn't there no one around? Who lit that up?

249
00:27:56,411 --> 00:28:00,351
Oh, my! Who lit that up?!

250
00:28:09,321 --> 00:28:11,061
- Somethings' not right.
- What's wrong?

251
00:28:11,061 --> 00:28:13,131
What's not right?

252
00:28:13,131 --> 00:28:15,501
Don't you think it looks like a human form?

253
00:28:15,501 --> 00:28:18,501
You must be drunk.

254
00:28:18,501 --> 00:28:20,411
Did we offend some ghost or deity?

255
00:28:20,411 --> 00:28:22,851
That's impossible! At most, Mercury is in Retrograde.

256
00:28:22,851 --> 00:28:24,461
Or, you're having visual hallucinations.

257
00:28:24,461 --> 00:28:25,791
If you don't believe me, look at it closely.

258
00:28:25,791 --> 00:28:30,911
Fine, we'll look at it. If it's not, you must treat as two to a meal.

259
00:28:30,911 --> 00:28:35,121
Sure. If you two are wrong, not only must you treat me to a meal, each must buy me a a game equipment.

260
00:28:35,121 --> 00:28:37,331
Fine. Fine. It's a deal.

261
00:28:51,681 --> 00:28:54,311
Damn it! It's a human!

262
00:29:11,311 --> 00:29:13,031
Sergeant Lin.

263
00:29:13,031 --> 00:29:17,061
I've long heard that there is an abandoned transistor station here. I just never came here before.

264
00:29:17,061 --> 00:29:19,841
Never thought there is such a huge drill ground here.

265
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:24,001
This drill ground has been abandoned for a long time. They initially planned to demolished it and build an amusement park.

266
00:29:24,001 --> 00:29:26,361
But for unknown reasons, they temporarily halted the plans.

267
00:29:26,361 --> 00:29:30,001
The road to here isn't easy to find, hence, not many people come here.

268
00:29:30,001 --> 00:29:31,951
How did the people who reported the crime discover this place?

269
00:29:31,951 --> 00:29:35,611
Those men that reported the crime just lived nearby.

270
00:29:35,611 --> 00:29:40,741
They knew that nobody lived in these dormitories, so they connected it with electricity and made this their hangout base.

271
00:29:40,741 --> 00:29:45,791
It was from here that they saw fire over there. They thought that someone got in, so they went over to look.

272
00:29:45,791 --> 00:29:50,261
There are no street lamps here, so the light from the fire then surely was very obvious.

273
00:29:50,261 --> 00:29:53,441
Because there are no streetlamps, there are also a few people who comes here.

274
00:29:53,441 --> 00:29:57,901
Right. In the morning, there are only a few who comes here to do exercises. At night, not much people come.

275
00:29:57,901 --> 00:30:00,021
This place  is surrounded on all sides.

276
00:30:00,051 --> 00:30:04,911
Around it are abandoned factories and residential buildings. The entrance is hard to find. This is a very remote place.

277
00:30:04,911 --> 00:30:10,401
The killer must know this place very well. He knew that there are usually no people around so he chose this place to dump the corpse.

278
00:30:10,401 --> 00:30:14,511
If the moon wasn't very bright tonight, you won't be able to see anything here.

279
00:30:14,511 --> 00:30:17,531
- Let's go to the main crime scene.
- This way, Sergeant Lin.

280
00:30:30,331 --> 00:30:33,981
They must have used these sacks to put out the fire.

281
00:30:35,501 --> 00:30:37,691
This position of the corpse is called pugilistic stance.

282
00:30:37,691 --> 00:30:40,681
This is because a human muscle contracts at extreme temperature.

283
00:30:40,681 --> 00:30:43,801
The limbs and body pull back following the direction of the joints.

284
00:30:43,801 --> 00:30:46,131
They look like playing boxing.

285
00:30:46,131 --> 00:30:48,521
That's why, it's called a pugilistic stance.

286
00:30:55,861 --> 00:30:58,501
How about it? Is it a male or a female?

287
00:30:59,091 --> 00:31:01,601
We're not in a labor room.

288
00:31:08,581 --> 00:31:10,251
Male.

289
00:31:10,891 --> 00:31:14,871
Can you determine if he was set on fire while alive or after death?

290
00:31:15,371 --> 00:31:19,921
We can't be sure of that yet. We must wait to examine his airways during the autopsy

291
00:31:19,921 --> 00:31:23,201
and the levels of carboxyhemoglobin in his blood.

292
00:31:23,201 --> 00:31:25,341
- Help me turn him over.
- Okay.

293
00:31:27,681 --> 00:31:31,311
Try to determine the category of this case as soon as possible. We can then start our operation.

294
00:31:36,281 --> 00:31:39,461
Strictly speaking, this is not anymore a pugilistic stance,

295
00:31:39,461 --> 00:31:42,911
but a rolled-up stance. Before he got burned into a pugilistic attitude,

296
00:31:42,911 --> 00:31:46,151
he already showed a more contracted rolled-up stance.

297
00:31:46,151 --> 00:31:49,901
His knees are almost flexed up to his chest. Burning won't be able to cause that.

298
00:31:49,901 --> 00:31:52,131
A high temperature can indeed cause muscular contracture.

299
00:31:52,131 --> 00:31:56,001
But it won't cause flexion of limbs to its greatest possible degree.

300
00:31:56,001 --> 00:32:00,331
That's why, the victim most likely was restrained before he was burned.

301
00:32:20,441 --> 00:32:22,161
Wait a minute.

302
00:32:28,341 --> 00:32:29,871
Okay.

303
00:32:32,311 --> 00:32:37,471
Sergeant Lin, I think we should do a physical and chemical test. They might have used a combustion accelerator.

304
00:32:37,471 --> 00:32:41,291
No problem. I'll have it done overnight. Look at these.

305
00:32:43,031 --> 00:32:45,451
A metal object. Very light.

306
00:32:45,451 --> 00:32:51,121
Black. Long. Has edges.

307
00:33:08,821 --> 00:33:10,951
The pull rods of a luggage?

308
00:33:10,951 --> 00:33:15,241
The cloth of the luggage has already been burned but the rods were preserved.

309
00:33:15,241 --> 00:33:20,041
After the murderer killed the victim, he transported him here via a luggage.

310
00:33:20,681 --> 00:33:23,791
Looks like this place is not the primary crime scene.

311
00:33:29,501 --> 00:33:33,251
The killer burned the corpse either to destroy the evidence

312
00:33:33,251 --> 00:33:36,781
or to cover up his crime. Although the corpse has already been burned like this,

313
00:33:36,781 --> 00:33:41,181
we still have to determine the identity of the victim fast.

314
00:33:41,181 --> 00:33:44,141
Sometimes, a corpse that's been meticulously handled by a perpetrator

315
00:33:44,141 --> 00:33:46,491
will look as if its identity has been covered up more,

316
00:33:46,491 --> 00:33:49,601
but there is a possibility that it will expose more information about the killer.

317
00:33:49,601 --> 00:33:51,981
A corpse is a very elastic and strong object.

318
00:33:51,981 --> 00:33:54,791
Its fire endurance ability far exceeds our imagination.

319
00:33:54,791 --> 00:33:57,511
Common acts to destroy a corpse like high temperature, acid corrosion,

320
00:33:57,511 --> 00:34:02,381
and explosion usually will not work unless it's a baby.

321
00:34:02,381 --> 00:34:05,091
Or else, only the extreme hit in a crematorium or a steel melting factory

322
00:34:05,091 --> 00:34:07,761
can totally convert a corpse into ashes.

323
00:34:07,761 --> 00:34:12,741
Also, burning a corpse within a narrow space is more effective than in an open space.

324
00:34:12,741 --> 00:34:15,711
A corpse with clothes will burn faster than a nude one.

325
00:34:15,711 --> 00:34:18,451
A fat person will burn faster than a thin one.

326
00:34:18,451 --> 00:34:22,181
The presence of a combustion acceleration will make it burn faster.

327
00:34:22,181 --> 00:34:26,671
Indeed. Being able to burn a luggage with a corpse into this degree,

328
00:34:26,671 --> 00:34:28,451
I'm reckon that a combustion accelerator must have been used.

329
00:34:28,451 --> 00:34:31,071
We must exert a great effort later.

330
00:34:31,071 --> 00:34:34,501
Our Forensic Pathologist Master Qin would also have a difficult time in doing  an autopsy.

331
00:34:34,501 --> 00:34:38,501
That's not what he meant. What he means is the dismemberment of the corpse will be a strenuous task.

332
00:34:38,501 --> 00:34:41,591
We must make the corpse...

333
00:34:42,711 --> 00:34:44,831
straighten.

334
00:34:49,011 --> 00:34:52,371
But going back to it, the corpse has an injury on his chest to begin with.

335
00:34:52,371 --> 00:34:56,731
Can you guys differentiate new and old wounds when you dismember the corpse?

336
00:34:58,021 --> 00:35:00,381
You're belittling us forensic pathologists then.

337
00:35:00,381 --> 00:35:04,141
It's actually very easy to differentiate an old from a new injury.

338
00:35:04,141 --> 00:35:08,341
Pre-mortem wounds turn red because of the bleeding in the skin and muscles.

339
00:35:08,341 --> 00:35:11,811
Postmortem wounds are yellow because of the skin and fats.

340
00:35:11,811 --> 00:35:14,611
That is assessing based on if the wound showed any vital reaction.

341
00:35:14,611 --> 00:35:18,831
Other than that, for both pre-mortem or postmortem wounds obatined before getting burned,

342
00:35:18,831 --> 00:35:22,101
the borders will curl up because of the heat and the skin quality will harden,

343
00:35:22,101 --> 00:35:27,121
while the edges of the wounds left by doing the autopsy won't curl up. That's easy to differentiate.

344
00:35:34,871 --> 00:35:36,891
Hey, Lao Qin.

345
00:35:37,481 --> 00:35:43,101
Don't you find someone's breathing disturbing?

346
00:35:49,081 --> 00:35:54,501
I suddenly remember that there are still tire tracks and shoe prints on the crime scene that must be compared.

347
00:35:54,501 --> 00:35:56,631
I'll go look at it now.

348
00:36:48,361 --> 00:36:53,401
Sometimes, a severely burnt corpse, may show a well-preserved axillary skin.

349
00:36:53,401 --> 00:36:57,581
That's why, we might be able to find traces of clothes on the armpit.

350
00:36:58,561 --> 00:37:00,411
I'll take a look.

351
00:37:23,071 --> 00:37:27,941
Most of victim's skin is completely burned. We won't be able to determine the specific damage situation.

352
00:37:27,941 --> 00:37:33,681
But based on the several attack wounds on the victim's chest, he seemed to have been stabbed several times into the chest cavity by a sharp object while he was still alive.

353
00:37:45,641 --> 00:37:48,781
Because of the high heat, the ribs have become very weak.

354
00:37:50,881 --> 00:37:53,671
Fortunately, the internal organs didn't get burned.

355
00:38:18,011 --> 00:38:22,601
There are no blood or ashes within the trachea. He probably didn't suffer any inhalational thermal injury.

356
00:38:22,601 --> 00:38:26,281
The high heat evaporated the blood. There are not much blood in the chest cavity.

357
00:38:27,751 --> 00:38:32,001
A ruptured aorta, we found the cause of death. Dying from one stab.

358
00:38:46,451 --> 00:38:48,431
What is this?

359
00:38:50,261 --> 00:38:53,501
This zipper...

360
00:38:53,501 --> 00:38:56,471
The one written on it is most likely a brand.

361
00:39:09,201 --> 00:39:14,411
There is a card here. Only this side can be read. What's written is...

362
00:39:14,411 --> 00:39:17,881
Feng Shang P...

363
00:39:23,591 --> 00:39:31,771
Timing and Subtitles Brought To You By Dr. Qin Forensic Team @ Viki

364
00:41:53,931 --> 00:41:57,391
The blood stains are concentrated on the chair, table, and the floor around them.

365
00:41:57,391 --> 00:42:00,801
The victim might have been sitting on his own chair when he suddenly got stabbed on the chest.

366
00:42:00,801 --> 00:42:05,031
The direction of the blood spurt is very disordered. This means that before he died, he might have fiercely struggled.

367
00:42:05,031 --> 00:42:08,781
There is an area here devoid of dust. A previously rectangular object here got taken away.

368
00:42:08,781 --> 00:42:11,331
Could it be that luggage?

369
00:42:13,071 --> 00:42:14,161
A gym card?

370
00:42:14,161 --> 00:42:18,361
The floor mat was below the chair. When he was attacked, he kicked the floor mat up to this level.

371
00:42:18,361 --> 00:42:21,881
If the shoes of the killer rubbed on it, there might be trace evidences left on it.

372
00:42:21,881 --> 00:42:25,081
There seems to be some objects on the floor mat, yellow and black objects.

373
00:42:25,081 --> 00:42:28,211
There is just one gauze inside the trash bin. The lid wasn't closed.

374
00:42:28,211 --> 00:42:31,981
Could this mean that he had just threw the gauze inside the waste bin when he got attacked?

375
00:42:31,981 --> 00:42:35,221
The site where the corpse was dumped, DNA, has injuries, transport vehicle.

376
00:42:35,221 --> 00:42:36,371
We don't have any relationship.

377
00:42:36,371 --> 00:42:38,121
We had it wrong.

378
00:42:38,121 --> 00:42:40,531
- Prepare to move.
- Yes!

379
00:42:40,531 --> 00:42:43,371
We probably are not far away from the killer.
