Chapter 205: They were Overwrought for Days but Sister Mang Solved It In Under Ten Minutes
Everyone did not know how to explain and could only use ‘dismembering an ox as skillfully as a butcher’ as a descriptor but that pathologist’s understanding of the human body was so great that it made one’s hair stand on end.
She mimicked the way the injury was made and assisted the police in cracking the cases which dumbstruck the officers from the vice squad.
However, this person only worked with the police for a year. It was rumored that she became a pathologist because only a pathologist could dissect the corpses. She did so to better understand the structure of the human body in order to augment her medical skills.
Only the older employees in the vice squad team who had been working there for many years knew this legendary pathologist. The only senior officer on duty tonight was Wu Luo. Other vice squad officers were resting after investigating the case for several days straight.
Lü Xin imagined what Gu Mang looked like numerous times in the past but never expected her to be a young girl. She snapped out of her trance and opened the door to the autopsy room as she led Gu Mang in.
A corpse was lying in the middle of the operating table while a huge yellow lamp hung above his head. He seemed to have passed away peacefully. Lü Xin watched as Gu Mang took a pair of disposable scrubs from the side and put them on. She then walked up to the corpse and began looking it over. She was incredibly meticulous.
Several minutes later, she touched the back of the man’s neck and pulled out half a needle from his hair. Half of an acupuncture needle had been left in the head.
Lü Xin looked at the needle. It was as thin as a strand of hair. She was taken aback as she frowned. “We didn’t notice that there was a broken needle inside the corpse when we investigated it?”
Gu Mang nodded. “The person who used this needle is quite good at acupuncture. It’s a man. Not many will know that he is good at traditional chinese medicine. Follow this clue and investigate from there.”
She even knew where the acupuncture points were. She was swift and steady in inserting the needles, and the depth and pressure of insertion were just right. An average person would not be able to accomplish this.
“Why do you conclude that he is very good at acupuncture?” Lü Xin was baffled as she watched Gu Mang. “Can acupuncture kill?”
Acupuncture was only problematic when the patient felt uncomfortable during the acupuncture process which could cause some discomfort. She had never heard of using acupuncture to kill.
“Mhm. Humans have so many acupuncture points and some are lethal points. As long as the person is skillful and inserts the needle deep, it will only take one needle to kill.”
Gu Mang’s voice was deep and hoarse and her face was expressionless. She picked a zipper bag and placed the needle inside before sealing it. Out of habit, she then picked up a pen and began writing on the label of the zipper bag. After finishing, she placed the sealed bag on the medical tray. She then removed the gloves and threw them in the dustbin casually as she put her hands in her pocket and left emotionlessly.
Lü Xin was taken aback as she looked at the girl who had just revealed the murderer’s traits within a few minutes and could not return to her senses.
That was… it? They had been working on this case for several days…
When Gu Mang came out, Lu Chengzhou was making a call at the end of the corridor but he kept his eyes on the autopsy room door. When he saw Gu Mang exit, he said something to the caller on the other end. After hanging up he walked towards her.
Lu Shangjin and Department Chief Yan were speaking about the case with Gu Mang as Wu Luo listened to the side.
“A man and someone who is pretty good in traditional chinese medicine.” Wu Luo was pondering over it and it seemed like he had a suspect in mind. Almost immediately after he said, “Department chief, I’ll go investigate the case first.”
After saying that, he strode away and when he brushed past Lu Chengzhou, he nodded slightly.
Lu Shangjin looked at Department Chief Yan as he raised his chin at Gu Mang. “Although she didn’t stay in the forensic unit for long, she knows quite a lot of people. If everyone weren’t on vacation tonight would have been fun.”
Gu Mang used to be very popular in the forensic unit so everyone who was currently on leave would probably regret missing out on seeing Gu Mang again.
The Department Chief was deeply astonished on the inside. The girl was only 17-years-old and was still quite young. If she worked in the department a few years ago she would have been even younger. He could not accept this truth. Even Lu Yī, who was standing to one side, could not believe it either.
