There was still a small amount of cranial content in the remaining half of the cranial cavity, but it had been burned and carbonized.

What is shocking is that the dagger was inserted into the mouth of the head and the blade had already penetrated into the skull cavity. Lu Jinping's heart sank and he did not peel it further, because the relevant evidence of crime might be involved below, and any clue at that time might be the key to solving the entire case, and it must not cause the loss of clues.

He took off his coat and spread it on the ground, put half of his head and the stiff mud in front of his mouth in his clothes. At the same time, he picked up the back half of the skull he found and put it inside, and combined it together, and the ports could basically match, which initially proved that this was a person's skull.

After searching, Lu Jinping asked Captain Lei and his subordinates to help search through a net-style search. However, after the fire, almost all the traces had turned into ashes. Except for some bone fragments found in the semi-frozen mud, no other useful things were found.

Lu Jinping carried a pile of bones to the front of Governor Feng, unfolded it, and showed the dagger on the head of the deceased, and said, "Sir, I suspect this is a murder case, and there is a dagger on the deceased's mouth."

When he heard this, governor Feng felt even more heavy. If it was a fire in the mountains and forests, and people were burned to death when putting out the fire, it would be easier to deal with it. He could even promote his own moral education achievements, which shows that the people under his command were kind, simple and brave. However, what he discovered now may be a murder case, which will affect his political achievements once it cannot be solved. Although he is already very confident in Lu Jinping's ability to solve the case, he is afraid that if it cannot be solved, it will still have an impact.

Governor Feng was lucky and said, "Can it be the person who put out the fire accidentally injured it?"

Lu Jinping felt very sympathetic for the naive thoughts of governor Feng. Indeed, as a seal officer, he knew the impact of an unsolvable murder case on his official fortune, but he still broke the final fantasy of governor Feng: "From the current situation, the deceased should have died before the wildfire occurred, and was not accidentally injured when putting out the fire."

"How can I see it?"

"Because the corpse has been highly carbonized. Except for the face buried in the mud and partially survived, the others have been basically carbonized. It is as far as I know that the corpse must be burned into this shape. It will last at least a few hours of flames, and it must be concentratedly burned. The situation is that the corpse is at the foot of the mountain, and the flames are going upwards. Therefore, the place at the foot of the mountain cannot be burned by fire for several hours. The forest fire burned a place for a total of no more than an hour. Such a fire cannot completely carbonize a corpse, so I suspect that someone has transported the corpse here to burn the corpse. The wind caused the wildfire. You can send someone to investigate the earliest fire point. If I speculate well, it may be at the foot of the mountain where the corpse was found."

Governor Feng nodded frequently and said, "Your analysis makes sense. There are not many trees near this depression, so it is impossible to burn for so long. I immediately check the people nearby and found out where the fire started."

Lu Jinping wrapped all the wreckage found in cloth and took it back to the yamen to investigate it carefully.

At this time, the investigation results were also released, and many people did prove it. When the fire was discovered, it was in the area at the foot of the mountain, proving that the fire was indeed as Lu Jinping speculated, and it was ignited near the depression where the body was found. Then it burned upwards, igniting the entire mountain forest.

After the investigation and investigation, it was noon. The brigade of troops withdrew from Tongzhou. Lu Jinping took the remains found and went directly to his judicial military entrustment room in the Tongzhou Yamen.

There was a large desk in his signing room, which was used to investigate, screen and find evidence. He placed several large bones under the table and then began to clean up slowly.

He first put on plastic gloves to prevent his sweat stains from contaminating the bones and disrupting the direction of the investigation.

He first examined the entire bone fragment one by one. He found half of the pelvic bone. Judging from the shape and arc of the pelvic bone, he could be sure that this was a woman's pelvic bone. From this, it can be seen that this corpse should be a woman's.

Judging from the gaps in the skull, the person's age can be preliminarily determined to be younger, and may not be over thirty years old. Judging from the characteristics of the extracted cheek bones, it also shows that it is the skeleton of a woman, further confirming his speculation.

The next survey focused on the head, which is where the weapon was discovered.

He carefully peeled off a large piece of dry soil from the mouth of the corpse little by little, and found no useful clues, and went to the handle of the dagger. Although the corpse was buried in the depression toward the head and face, due to the continuous high temperature of the fire, the temperature of the entire soil was extremely high, which made the facial muscles carbonized. At the same time, the dagger had been burned out by the high temperature, and the rope wrapped in the surface was basically burned. Lu Jinping dared not touch it, for fear of touching it.

Lu Jinping tried to clean up all the soil at his head and mouth, and crushed the soil one by one to search. After finding no clues, Lu Jinping carefully pulled out the dagger in his head.

The dagger is a bit weird in shape. There is a saw tooth on the back, separated from left to right, just like a small sentence on the tail. The saw opening has been opened and is very sharp, so it can be used as a saw.

This kind of dagger with serrated back is quite common in modern society, especially after the knife appeared in the American movie Stallone's "The First Drop of Snow", it became popular. In fact, this knife is mainly used by special forces. However, this knife is different from the knives used by special forces that Lu Jinping saw in modern social films and TV series. The back of this knife is really a saw, which can be used to saw wood.

This shape was very strange in the Tang Dynasty. Lu Jinping has been in the Tang Dynasty for more than half a year and has seen many knives, but he has never seen such a knife with a saw on his back.

The blade of the knife was burned black. After Lu Jinping finished checking, he felt that it was just a dream to extract useful traces from it for identification.

Lu Jinping carefully removed the mandible mandible. After removing the mandible, he slowly took out the dried and hard mud stuffed with his mouth.

The reason why he was so cautious was that he hoped to find DNA substances from his mouth for detection of the source of the corpse. But when he saw the dried soil, he was disappointed that the DNA substances should have been completely destroyed by the high temperature.

But he still carefully examined the deceased's mouth. Because half of the face was buried in the mud, the entire mouth was filled with mud. Although the remaining brain objects in the head had been carbonized, they were piled up on the cheeks, playing a protective role.

He crushed the entire soil one by one to inspect, but found nothing.

He was disappointed, and the last thing that needed to be examined was the deceased's teeth.

When his eyes focused on the pointed tiger teeth of the mandible that had been removed, his eyes lit up. In the gap between the tiger teeth and the adjacent incisors, he found a small tuft of black hair!

Could it be that the deceased fought with the murderer and bit off a small chunk of the murderer's hair?

Lu Jinping was excited about this discovery. He immediately observed the small thighs and found that several of them seemed to have hair follicles, which meant that the DNA that might be able to detect hair! This is the key to whether the high temperature gives face and whether it will leave this final evidence for himself.

He tested these hairs with follicles, but the result surprised him. The results showed that it was not a human DNA, but a canine family. He immediately retrieved the relevant database stored on the microcomputer and checked, and it turned out to be a large Mongolian shepherd dog!

What exactly happened when the shepherd dog's hair was found in the mouth of this female deceased?

The hair was stuck between the teeth of the deceased's mouth, and the deceased was lying face down in the depression, and the entire face was buried in the mud. The deceased's mouth was filled with mud, wrapping the small twig of hair, forming a thick protective layer. At the same time, the fire burned and melted the surrounding snow and gathered in the depression. Although it was quickly dried by the fire, the continuous flow of water flowed, which significantly reduced the time and extent of the deceased's face being burned by the fire, which allowed several of the small twigs of hair to survive most of the high temperature.

After Lu Jinping soaked and separated the entire teeth and the soil inside the oral cavity of the deceased in solution, he conducted DNA testing, hoping to find the DNA of the deceased and the source of the corpse could be determined.

Unfortunately, the test results disappointed him again, and the DNA of the person was not found, and the effort to determine the source of the corpse failed.

Lu Jinping called Captain Xiong and two deputy captains to prepare for investigation and deployment of the case.

The three of them came to the boardroom of the signing room. After sitting down, Lu Jinping said: "The deceased found at the fire scene is likely to die of murder, because the deceased's mouth was stabbed into the brain by a serrated dagger, which is a fatal injury. Other parts of the deceased's body have been highly carbonized and cannot be determined whether there are other causes of death, so at present, this is a known cause of death. It is rare to commit suicide in this way, especially for a woman, so it is almost impossible to preliminarily infer that it is a murder case."

The three heads of the captain looked at each other and asked, "Is it a woman who died?"

"Yes, and relatively young. The murderer stabbed her mouth with a dagger and her brain to die. His methods were cruel, which meant that it was likely to be a vendetta. Next, I will talk about the direction of the case. Captain Bear, you are responsible for investigating the source of the dagger. Judging from the shape of the dagger, it is very strange. I believe that this should not be an ordinary dagger. There may be a specific owner. If anyone can find someone holding this dagger, the case will take a big step forward. Therefore, your work is very critical and you must investigate it carefully."
