The old farmer was already scared, but when he saw this string of copper coins, his eyes immediately lit up and his spirit came soon. He immediately took it over, nodded and agreed, picked up the feces spoon and continued to dig it in the feces pit.

Situ Ce asked him to scoop the urine first, then ask the feces to be taken out and rinsed with water to check. After struggling for more than an hour, the cesspool was exhausted and no other strange thing was found.

Helanbing asked with a golden folding fan in front of his mouth and nose: "Who is this head?"

Situ Ce looked back at the crowd watching. One of the investigation disciplines was that he could not discuss the case at the scene of the crime, otherwise it would be easy to leak the investigation secrets. There were many lessons like this. He said at the moment: "This is not a place to speak, let's go back to the yamen to talk about it."

Helanbing nodded.

After taking the skull, the group returned to the study room in the yamen.

Situ Ce cleaned the skull and the wrapped cloth with water again, then disinfected it with medicine, then put it on the table and said to Helanbing: "The deceased is a woman, about thirty years old, and her height is similar to yours."

He Lanbing was surprised and said, "A skull, can you tell the man and woman? Can you tell the age? And how tall is? It's so amazing!"

Of course, Helanbing didn't believe it, because it involved forensic anthropology issues. In ancient times, there was almost zero knowledge. Naturally, she didn't know that Situ Ce, as a forensic doctor, could be considered a sharp-eyed eye at this time.

To determine whether a head is a man or a woman, first look at the frontal bone, then look at the occipital bone, then look at the temporal bone and the jawbone. There are obvious differences between men and women. The frontal bone of a man is leaning backward, while the lower part of the frontal scale of a woman's frontal bone is steeper and the upper part is bent backward; as for the occipital bone, there are many differences: the occipital condyle of a man, the slenderness of a woman, the thickness of a occipital bone axillary bulge, the underdevelopment of a woman, the development of an outer occipital crest, the lack of women or only slightly visible, the larger of a occipital magnum, the smaller of a woman; as for the temporal bone, the larger of a man's bulge, the smaller of a woman; as for the temporal bone, the larger of a man's bulge, the smaller of a woman; as for the jawbone, there are many differences. Generally speaking, the larger, thicker, heavier, and the smaller of a woman's occipital ridge, and the smaller of a woman's magnum.

These differences are all relative between men and women, so you must see many entities of the skulls of men and women before you can have an intuitive impression.

When Situ Ce was studying anatomy, he compared these differences between men and women's skulls in real objects, so he understood it.

To calculate the age of the skull, first judge the approximate age from the mandible. The mandible of an adult is almost right angled, and the mandible canal is in the middle of the bone. From this, it is determined that this is an adult skull. Then judge the accurate age from the skull suture. The healing starts from the inner plate of the skull, and then the outer plate of the skull heals, and the healing process gradually completes with age. Situce basically heals from the basement suture, leaving traces, and judges that the deceased should be 25 to 30 years old. He also observed that the plate top suture of this skull begins to heal, and it is inferred that it is about 30 years old.

The height of the skull is mainly determined by the skull circumference and the vertical diameter of the skull. The height of the owner of the head can be calculated through a special calculation formula.

Although Helanbing and the others didn't know how Situ Ce came up with this result, the previous detection had already made them know that Situ Ce was not bragging. Perhaps when he was squatting there and thrusting with his head, he had already secretly used Taoism to find the gender, age and height of the deceased.

After hearing He Lanbing's words, Situ Ce smiled without explanation. He couldn't explain it clearly for a while. He continued: "The deceased was abandoned by someone, obviously he killed him. Moreover, I also found scratches caused by multiple sharp weapons on the skull. These are probably left by the murderer when he stripped the deceased's cortical muscles and hair."

"Why did the murderer peel off the deceased's skin and hair?" Helanbing frowned.

"This can only show that the murderer has a close relationship with the deceased. After the murderer is worried that the deceased's head will be discovered, he will follow the clues to find him. Peel off the skin on his head and face. Even if others find this head, they will not know who it is. Therefore, this case is likely to be acquaintances committing the crime!"

"That's right!" He Lanbing slapped his high-high and said, "As long as we determine who this head is, we can determine the range of the murderer! One by one, we can definitely find the real murderer! - This man's method is so cruel that he must not let him slip away!"

"Yes," said Situ Ce, "After the murderer killed the deceased, he broke the corpse and then threw away the corpse separately. The purpose of the corpse is to facilitate the throwing of the corpse and destroying the traces. On the other hand, it often explains the murderer's hatred towards the deceased. Therefore, the nature of the case is likely to be a vendetta. Because the deceased is a woman and an adult woman, it is more likely to be a love kill!"

"Yes, the murderer is an acquaintance of the deceased, and it may be a love killer. The murderer is likely to be the husband or lover of the deceased!"

"If it is a lover, of course the murderer may be his husband or lover, but if it is a vendetta, the murderer may not be just a man."

"That's right," Helanbing giggled, "The two cases we solved before were all done by women, one was killed by his wife and the other was killed by his lover, both of them were women. Could it be that they were women again this time?"

"I prefer the murderer to be a man."

"Why?"

Situ Ce knew from the relevant data on crime statistics that more than 90% of the cases of corpse dismemberment were done by men. But this is not easy to tell He Lanbing, and he said vaguely: "Because of corpse dismemberment, women are not willing to do it."

"Yes, women, no matter how cruel they are, their hearts are still softer than men. Moreover, women are not as strong as men. Splitting and throwing corpses is a job of hard work. Most women don't have the strength to do so."

"Yes!" Situ Ce touched the skull and continued: "The murderer scraped off the deceased's head, face, skin and hair, which means that the murderer was very calm in dismembering the corpse. It seems that the time it takes to dismember the corpse is relatively long. If it is in an open air or other public place, the murderer generally does not have so much time to dismember the corpse so calmly. In this way, the place where the corpse is dismembered should be indoors, and it is likely that the murderer's own residence!"

"Well, only in your own residence can you dismember yourself so calmly." He Lanbing thought for a while and said, "Where do you think the murderer's residence will be?"

"It's probably near this toilet!"

"Oh? Why?" He Lanbing asked in shock.

"The place where the head was found was a residential area, with many families and main streets passing through it. It was very lively. There was a night market at night, and people came and went. If the murderer's body was disbanded from it but was in other places, why didn't he choose to throw the body in a secluded place, but instead transport the body to the toilet in this lively place to throw it away? This is not in line with the thinking of normal people."
