Chapter 146 Continuous spontaneous human combustion case
Yes.
On the intact 1.5-meter bed, lay a charred corpse.
This picture...
No matter how you look at it, it feels a little weird.
"Is it spontaneous combustion again?"
After seeing the corpse, Su Meng was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xu Bai: "Master, counting the five incidents yesterday, this should be the sixth incident, right?"
Xu Bai nodded.
This is not the first case where the bed sheets and even the quilt cover are all fine except for being burnt on the bed.
There were five similar cases yesterday.
but…
"Not six, but twelve."
"What?"
Listening to the voice, Su Meng looked at Lao Xu, the forensic doctor with his head down, who was doing the autopsy over there: "Forensic doctor Xu, twelve cases, it's impossible."
Xu Bai also looked at forensic doctor Xu.
Old Xu used tweezers to carefully hold the hair he had just collected from the dead man's fingers and put it away. After instructing the apprentices behind to pack the body, he took off his gloves, looked at Xu Bai and Su Meng and said, "It's twelve cases. We will bring out such weird cases and discuss and learn from each other."
Su Meng blinked.
"us?"
"The forensic doctors of our police station."
Xu Bai answered Su Meng's question, and then looked at the forensic doctor Xu: "Are there similar cases in other branches?"
Forensic doctor Lao Xu nodded: "It's the same as the current one, weird and natural, and the first corpse appeared yesterday, and the second branch, eighth branch, fifth and third branch all received similar corpses yesterday. "
Xu Bai frowned!
Second Division.
Fifth third inning.
Just for these two sub-bureaus, this can almost represent the straight-line distance of the entire Fengcheng.
so…
This case of human nature appeared in every corner of Fengcheng yesterday?
Su Meng frowned and said, "Strange, why didn't they report it."
Old forensic doctor Xu smiled, without speaking, he passed Xu Bai and Su Meng directly, took his packed guests and his apprentices, and left the bedroom with fresh air first.
Strange to say.
The deceased died of spontaneous combustion, but what is strange is not only that the sheets and quilts do not have any traces of burning, even the air does not have any burning smell.
Su Meng looked at Lao Xu, the forensic doctor who turned to leave, and then looked back at Xu Bai.
"Master?"
"We're all waiting."
"ah."
"Waiting to see which branch will report first, and then they can get rid of it."
Xu Bai explained to Su Meng with his expression unchanged, why according to the process, the murder case needs to be reported, but the other sub-bureaus did not report the fundamental reason.
Again.
Fengcheng Police Station has a large organization, and there are a total of fifty-three numbered branches. The fifty-three branches guarding Fengcheng Police Station are not just about cooperation or competition.
Similarly, sometimes, they blame each other.
For example, this case.
Not to mention other people, but if a similar case was reported by other sub-bureaus yesterday, Xu Bai would hand over the case without hesitation.
Anyway, this case did not trigger a system task.
Yes.
Very weird.
According to the past, when a homicide occurred, basically, the system tasks would be released immediately, but Xu Bai received the first spontaneous combustion case yesterday, until the end of yesterday, the system tasks did not sound.
This made Xu Bai a little suspicious, whether there was some unknown failure in this broken task module.
Of course.
This case also made Xu Bai a little suspicious.
Especially after Su Meng routinely asked the neighbors on the third floor and the neighbors on the second and fourth floors.
"No."
Su Meng found Xu Bai who was still in the bedroom, looked at the small notebook in her hand, shook her head and said, "Same as the five cases yesterday, the neighbors said that they didn't hear any movement or anything unusual."
Same as today's corpse.
The victims of the five spontaneous combustion cases yesterday all died of spontaneous combustion in their own bedrooms, and the time of death was all at night.
It can spontaneously ignite at night.
It doesn't matter that no one saw the burning flames from the window, and even the cries for help, these neighbors said they didn't hear them.
This time is no exception.
Xu Bai nodded and looked at Su Meng: "On the river of fate, can you see it?"
Su Meng shook her head: "Master, I tried it yesterday. In the long river of fate, I can't find these people at all."
Xu Bai frowned.
"Can't find it?"
"Maybe it's just like what my uncle said, it's because of the confusion of the heavenly secrets. After I went back last night, I asked my uncle, but he couldn't find it."
"All right."
Office siding.
Including today's corpse, the Thirty-eighth Branch, from yesterday to now, has received a total of reports, all of which are due to the spontaneous combustion of the deceased's files.
Xu Bai crossed his arms and stared at the information of the six deceased on the hanging board.
No matter in terms of age, family background, or interpersonal relationship, the six deceased had no connection at all.
The age of the six deceased ranged from thirty to fifty years old.
Family backgrounds are even more diverse. Some are from rural areas, some are from urban slums, and some are from business families.
In terms of interpersonal relationships, there is no connection at all.
Su Meng also imitated Xu Bai's appearance, and stood beside Xu Bai with her arms folded.
"coincide?"
"Six spontaneous combustions in one day?"
Xu Bai glanced at Su Meng: "If this is a coincidence, I would rather believe that if I buy a lottery ticket today, I will win the first prize."
At the very least, his chances of winning the first prize are higher than six spontaneous combustion cases a day.
The medical examiner's office just called and confirmed that the sixth body just discovered died between one and two in the morning the day before yesterday, which was almost the same as the death time of the five bodies yesterday.
This is the only place where these six corpses can be contacted.
Apart from this, there is no other connection.
at this time.
Chen Shan pushed the door in from the outside, looked at the master and apprentice who were in front of the hanging board, bowed their heads in thought, walked over, looked at Xu Bai: "In three minutes, you will thank me."
Xu Bai looked at Chen Shan.
Three minutes later.
A surveillance video shot by a pinhole camera was played on the screen in front of the three of them.
"What's this?"
"The bedroom monitoring of the fourth deceased."
"Bedroom...surveillance?"
Su Meng blinked her eyes: "Why, I think it's weird to associate the bedroom with surveillance."
Chen Shan smiled and said: "It should be very strange. I checked the information and found that the fourth deceased was a pinhole monitor purchased last month. I deciphered his mobile phone. Guess what he bought it for." of."
Su Meng was stunned.
Xu Bai looked at Chen Shan expressionlessly, without speaking.
Chen Shan looked at Xu Bai's appearance, said something boring, and then directly smiled and said: "I also found his account on Tangwang. This guy has posted all the videos of him and his wife at night. .”
Xu Bai's face is not expressionless this time.
Su Meng opened her mouth wide: "What, this guy put things about him and his wife on Tangwang.com?"
Chen Shan nodded.
Next second.
Chen Shan was a little suspicious, and looked at Su Meng: "Mengmeng, do you also know Tangwang?"
Su Meng was slightly taken aback, then shook her head like a rattle: "No, I don't know, I haven't even heard of it."
Chen Shan obviously didn't believe it, so he laughed.
Xu Bai shook his head and interrupted directly: "Okay, let's play."
Chen Shan came back to his senses, pressed the play room, and started to play the monitoring: "This is the real-time monitoring of the night of the incident that I extracted from the USB flash drive of this guy's camera, don't blink."
The monitoring has been slightly extracted by Chen Shan.
So, without any boring prelude, just ten seconds after the progress bar passed, it directly entered the climax scene.
flame.
The dead man, who was lying on the bed and playing with his mobile phone in the surveillance screen one second, tilted his head the next second, as if showing some special ability to fall asleep in a second.
But the second after the deceased fell asleep, a pinch of flames, black flames suddenly appeared on the surveillance screen.
The black flame was like a black hole, spreading all over the body of the deceased in less than a second.
Among them, the dead who were swallowed by the black flames did not respond, as if they had fallen into a deep sleep, allowing the black flames to burn them alive into coke.
The mysterious black flame appeared strangely, and similarly, it also disappeared strangely. It took less than ten seconds from the time it appeared to the end.
After the black flame disappeared, the dead who was confirmed alive ten seconds ago had reappeared on the monitoring screen in the shape of coke.
Su Meng looked at the content played on the monitoring screen, and couldn't help but opened her mouth in surprise.
Xu Bai also watched this scene with a frown.
This flame...
Xuan Hei?
Extraordinary?
its not right.
At the scene, I didn't notice any extraordinary fluctuations.
When the second spontaneous combustion case happened yesterday, Xu Bai, who rushed to the scene, saw the corpse that was no different from the first corpse, and began to wonder if there was something extraordinary involved in this case.
but…
Xu Bai specially sensed it yesterday. At the scene of the crime, there was no unusual aura left, and there was no fluctuation of an extraordinary aura left at the scene.
But this black flame?
Also when the human body spontaneously combusts, the color of the flame does not match.
Because when the human body spontaneously combusts, the color of the burning flame is generally blue. Among the few real human spontaneous combustion videos, there has never been a black flame.
Chen Shan looked at Xu Bai who was bowing his head in thought, and blinked his eyes: "Well, do you want to thank me? This is proof that the fourth deceased should have died of spontaneous combustion."
Xu Bai didn't speak.
