Chapter 80 Female Corpse in Red

March 10, 2011

Zhou Ning hung up the phone and Liu Yongxin came over.

"It's fast enough. The first phase of this software is basically completed, right?"

Zhou Ning exhaled. He suppressed his inner excitement and excitement, calmed himself down, and kept nodding towards Liu Yongxin.

When he got the level 4 face restoration technology, he was so reluctant at first, but now he realizes that the benefits of upgrading one aspect alone are unbelievable to him.

Because the current face restoration technology is no longer limited to whether it is a human face, but is an analysis technology for portraits in surveillance or various very vague image data.

Professionally speaking, it is called a facial image deblurring method based on adaptive grid deformation to improve the effect of facial image deblurring.

To put it bluntly, no matter how blurry the image is, as long as I find the position data of the facial features in the image, I can calculate the original shape of the facial features through these data.

During the phone call just now, Zhou Ning mentioned this idea and sent Dr. Lu detailed research steps and directions. Dr. Lu was so happy that he encouraged him to expand the development content of the software.

"Yes, the first phase of the design has been completed. After debugging for a week and testing many times, the effect is very good. Details such as skin color and iris color can be adjusted later. However, there are no suitable skulls or bone fragments for software simulation to restore.

And Dr. Lu means to let me follow him and experiment for a while."

Liu Yongxin was stunned.

"Go when you have to. It doesn't matter if I'm two days early or two days late. It's just a fragment of a bone. Do you have any requirements?"

Zhou Ning shook his head.

"There are no requirements, but it would be better if I know the skull fragments of my appearance, so that I can make corresponding comparisons. Of course, it would also be possible if the whole body's bones are broken. This part of the bone computer analysis and restoration system is in the debugging stage, which is the second phase.

Content."

Liu Yongxin blinked and moved closer to Zhou Ning.

"It's so fast. It seems that Qindao University attaches great importance to the development of this software and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources."

"That's natural. They contacted many experts and they all participated. However, there is a shortage of forensic professionals now, because although there are majors in forensics, these visiting professors will not participate in software research and are not suitable.

I have discussed with Dr. Lu and he wants to invite you over. After all, you will officially retire in a few days. How about giving you a letter of appointment?"

Liu Yongxin was stunned. This statement exceeded his expectations. He raised his finger and pointed at his face, shaking his head repeatedly.

"It's just me? I just went to college while working, but I've been through a lot of years. If I don't make it through this, I'll be a burden to you."

Zhou Ning shook his head.

"Master, don't be modest. I think you are the most suitable one. No one can compare with me in terms of experience. My tutor back then had a high degree of education, but that was all theoretical knowledge. What we need now is practical ability. You must know that I didn't have your persistence and ability at that time.

Even matchmaking and this software are impossible.”

Liu Yongxin blinked.

"Do you think I can do it?"

"There is no one more suitable than you. In fact, the R&D team was originally interested in looking for cooperation with the municipal bureau's forensic office. However, after contacting it, the municipal bureau's forensic office was investigating a case that has been in progress for many years. The only one they could send was a person who followed me.

For forensic doctors who are about the same age, Dr. Lu feels that you still need to find someone with comprehensive skills and experience, and he thinks you are the most suitable."

Liu Yongxin smiled, rubbed his chin and leaned on the chair.

"I didn't expect that I would be able to thrive as an apprentice at this old age. Since you and Dr. Lu both think I can do it, I won't hold back any longer and I will agree to it."

Zhou Ning dialed Dr. Lu's phone with a smile and told Liu Yongxin that he had agreed to the appointment. Dr. Lu was very happy and asked Liu Yongxin to wait patiently for their letter of appointment. As for the treatment, the final result will be given after the hospital reacts.

.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Ning saw Liu Yongxin leaning in front of the computer, wearing reading glasses and seemed to be looking at something.

Zhou Ning came over and found that it was an email, a co-investigation document sent by the Municipal Bureau's Forensic Medicine Office, followed by a DNA test report. At this time, Liu Yongxin had already read the last page. Seeing him take off his glasses, Zhou Ning quickly asked:

"Master, what notice did the city bureau issue?"

Liu Yongxin shook his head, sighed, took a sip of tea, and then said slowly:

"I guess you have been studying outside these years, so you don't know much about Qindao. There is a serial murder case in Qindao red. In more than five years, there have been eleven consecutive crimes.

In this case on February 25 this year, a piece of rice green liquid was extracted from the deceased, so this DNA was released and asked various districts and cities to help investigate."

Zhou Ning raised his eyes in surprise. Eleven serial murders occurred within five years. This man was quite cruel.

"In this latest case, rice green liquid was discovered? Wasn't there any other evidence left before?"

Liu Yongxin shook his head.

"The deceased are usually dumped in garbage dumps, and the evidence is severely damaged. When they are found, the bodies are usually in a high state of decay, and some are even eaten by rats and wild dogs, leaving very little evidence.

Last year, both the provincial department and the Ministry of Public Security sent people to help with the investigation. Because the chain of evidence was missing, more favorable information could not be found. Moreover, these cases generally occurred in the urban-rural fringe area around Qindao City, which was perfectly avoided.

Monitoring of city settings.

As for the fingerprints, I found some, but after searching, it turned out that none of them were the murderer. Most of these fingerprints were from scavengers or sanitation workers."

"What about the deceased? Were the identity and fingerprints of the deceased not found? Are there any common features among these eleven cases?"

Liu Yongxin shook his head.

"The fingerprints of the deceased were all cut off. Among the eleven victims, five of them are still unknown. Four of the six female victims identified are high school students and day students. If you find that you have not returned home, please contact the school.

, the body was found within three to five days after the crime was reported.

The other two are night shift girls from nearby factories. What they have in common is that they are both very thin and disappeared at night, and they were wearing red clothes. Anyway, countless police and material resources have been invested in catching this murderer over the years.

, but there has been no news.

Moreover, the school requires parents to pick up and drop off students during self-study in the evening, and female students are not allowed to go home alone. From the end of 2009 to the present five cases, the murderers have become more secretive in committing crimes, and the places where they dumped the bodies have become more and more remote.

The victim's face was destroyed, and apart from being dressed in red, there was no identifying information, so the victim's identity could not be ascertained because it could not be found among the missing persons.

However, I suspect that these five victims may be street women. They all have shady professions, the population is highly mobile, and most of them are not locals. Furthermore, these victims are more difficult to detect, so this case is even more complicated and confusing.

"

Zhou Ning nodded. Liu Yongxin's suspicion was quite right. It is true that it is difficult to investigate such people during the census, and their native families rarely ask questions. If they really died or disappeared, their families might not know about it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Zhou Ning paused and raised his eyes to look at Liu Yongxin.

"Master, are the bodies of these people preserved?"

Liu Yongxin was stunned and nodded slowly.

"Cryopreservation of highly decayed corpses is of little significance, but the skeletons have been processed and preserved. Why do you ask? Wait, you mean, this software just needs a lot of experimental data, and you want to use the software to restore their appearance.

, and then conduct an investigation?”

Zhou Ning nodded excitedly, but Liu Yongxin kept waving his hands.

"Don't think about it. There are so many people handling this case, and it has alarmed the provincial department, the Ministry of Public Security, and the municipal bureau. They will not agree to participate in your software experiment."

Zhou Ning was stunned and couldn't react for a while. If the skull was restored, wouldn't it be beneficial to the investigation of the case? Why would he object? He should fully support it.

Liu Yongxin sighed and continued:

"I understand your good intentions, but you have to know that ours is the forensic office of the branch, and your last software cooperation directly bypassed the city bureau and cooperated with Qindao University, although everyone thought it was

It's a good thing, but many people have knots in their hearts, do you understand?"

Zhou Ning sighed. He didn't think so much, but when he thought of the two people in suits and ties he met at the signing ceremony, he instantly understood Liu Yongxin's words.

"Okay, let's forget about it. But after that, Dr. Lu and I will talk about it. If he thinks it's feasible, he will discuss it with the city bureau. We won't participate."

Liu Yongxin smiled.

"Well, this is fine, but don't look for it right away. OK, go and type on your keyboard. I see that you have written many pages. It seems to be a story. There are also cases we handled in it. Do you want to publish a novel?

"

Zhou Ning was a little embarrassed.

"I'm just looking for something to let myself vent my bad emotions. Didn't you say that I have to learn to express myself? I think this method is very suitable for me, but I haven't decided whether to publish it yet. Master, please don't talk to other people.

talk!"

"I know, I know, I'll keep it a secret for you! But what about the hush money?"

Zhou Ning scratched his head.

"Xu Da asked us to have a buffet last time, but he hasn't fulfilled it yet. I learned from him. When you receive the letter of appointment, I will treat you to a good meal at the head office, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the office door was pushed open and Xu Dayuan walked in quickly.

"As soon as I came in, I heard you talking about me behind my back. What bad things did Zhou Xiaozhou say about me?"

Zhou Ning was startled and quickly jumped down from the table.

"Xuda, why are you here?"

Xu Dayuan had a litigious look on his face, and his eyebrows almost knitted together.

"Bad news, here comes the female body in red. I wonder if it is the serial murder case in red. Let's go and have a look. Where are the people from Da Zhao?"
