"Although it's been 30 years, the preservation of the bones is better than we thought." Zhang Peipei pointed to the bones on the big screen and said, "The DNA extraction was very smooth, and except for the very small bones, most of the bones can basically be restored!
"Look …" She pointed to the charred bones on the big screen. "After piecing them together, we can clearly see that half of the right arm of the adult woman is missing!
"It's missing, not incomplete. Judging from the length of the broken arm bone, it also matches the arm in the safe …"
The special investigation group had seen too many corpses, so they were used to it.
However, after seeing the four charred bones of different sizes, everyone still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Oh my God!" Ran Tao said in surprise. "If Sun Yujiao's arm was chopped off before the fire, then … Then, this fire can't be an accident!"
"Not necessarily, right? Cui Lizhu gestured at her arm and said, "When was her hand cut off?"
"Gao Chaolin's brother said that he had never heard of Sun Yujiao's arm being cut off!" Zhao Yu said.
"If the arm was cut off a long time before the fire, then … Why didn't they call the police? If it was cut off, at least they should have gone to the hospital, right? "
"I …" Zeng Ke quickly said, "I'll go and check if there's a hospital on Wen An Road!"
"Their family …" Wu Xiumin said. "They were murdered at home! If Sun Yujiao's arm was cut off, how could she be at home? She should still be in the hospital, right? "
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu nodded slightly. "If that's the case, then the fire is really strange!
Maybe the real purpose of the murderer was to cut off Sun Yujiao's arm, and the fire was just a cover up! "
Everyone had goosebumps when they heard Zhao Yu's words.
"Your imagination …" Cui Lizhu bit her lip and said, "Do you think that the murderer set the whole family on fire to cover up the fact that he cut off the mistress's arm? What kind of logic is that? "
"That era was different from now," Zhao Yu insisted. "At that time, a fire could burn all the evidence!
"The facts have proven that he has succeeded!" Zhao Yu pointed to the big screen and said, "Although four people died, they treated it as an accident. One of the bodies was missing an arm, and they didn't even notice it!"
"Fire … fire …" Cui Lizhu still couldn't believe it. "Was it really an accident?"
"Tsk tsk …" Ran Tao smacked his lips. "The murderer first chopped off Sun Yujiao's arm and then burned her whole family? Isn't this … unnecessary?
"Since a big fire could burn them to death, why did they have to chop off their hands?
Ran Tao asked again, "If it's for a souvenir, why didn't you use your head as a souvenir like Li Fei did? Why didn't you use your arm instead?"
"Are you an idiot?" Cui Lizhu glanced at Ran Tao with disdain. "If there's a skull missing, it's obvious that the fire wasn't an accident."
"Oh …" Ran Tao quickly sat down dejectedly.
"If this case had happened now, it would have been too easy!" Zeng Ke said, holding a document in his hand. "Unfortunately, that was thirty years ago!
We only have such a simple fire report. I'm afraid it's impossible to determine whether the fire was man-made or an accident. "
"No, not necessarily!" Zhang Peipei suddenly said. She pulled out a photo from the report and said, "Before this, I've already seen the fire scene report!
I'm afraid that these photos alone can explain some things … Look … "
She took out the photos of the victims of the fire 30 years ago and put them on the projector. Then, a huge photo appeared on the big screen.
In the photo, there was a charred corpse.
Zhang Peipei said, "This is a photo of Gao Chaolin's daughter. At that time, his daughter was eleven years old. From the corpse, we can see that when the girl was killed, there were obvious signs of struggle!"
She then put another photo on the projector. "This is their son, who was only eight years old at the time. There were also obvious signs of struggle …"
Then, she put the last photo on the screen and said, "Look at the photos of Gao Chaolin and his wife's corpses …"
In the photo, there was a pair of charred corpses. Because of the severe burns, the two corpses were stacked together, making it impossible to tell who was who.
"This is …" Ran Tao looked at the photos carefully and murmured, "Is there a problem? Does Dr. Zhang mean that there were no signs of struggle between the two of them? "
Zhao Yu said. "It looks like there were some signs of struggle."
Zhao Yu then said, "I've also read the report carefully. The report shows that the fire was caused by an electrical short circuit, and the fire started in Gao Chaolin and his wife's room."
Zhao Yu then said, "The police believe that the couple was asleep at the time, and the fire was so fast that it was too late for them to escape.
They struggled to crawl to the door, but because they fainted from the smoke, they were burned to death on the bedroom floor. "
Zhao Yu then said, "Both of their heads were facing the door, and one of their arms was stretched out. Obviously, there were signs of struggle."
She then added, "The two bodies were stacked together, and the bones were glued together. Plus, the police believed that it was an accidental fire, so they didn't realize that Sun Yujiao was missing half an arm!"
"Dr. Zhang …" Zhao Yu looked at the big screen and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the bodies of Gao Chaolin and his wife?"
"The problem lies in the body below," Zhang Peipei said as she pointed at the photo. "The burnt body below is the hostess, Sun Yujiao!
Zhang Peipei then said, "The photo is a bit blurry, so we can't see if Sun Yujiao was struggling, but … We can see that Sun Yujiao's face is facing up!"
"Oh … Oh …"
Hearing Zhang Peipei's explanation, Ran Tao and the others suddenly realized what was going on and exclaimed.
Zhao Yu was also shocked, and his eyes suddenly widened.
Zhang Peipei then said, "If it was a sudden fire, then both of them should be facing down, as if they were trying to escape."
"Really?" Cui Lizhu asked. "It seems that Sun Yujiao saw that there was no hope of survival, so she hugged her husband.
Or, could it be that Gao Chaolin wanted to protect his wife with his own body? "
"No …" Zhang Peipei shook her head and said, "That's not my point. I've seen too many burned bodies before, and if they were burned to death by fire, the bodies of the deceased would be curled up! Just like their children … "
She then said, "But … The bodies of Gao Chaolin and his wife are straight, which is a very obvious suspicious point!"
