Chapter 169 The Possibility of Spontaneous Human Combustion
Zhang Yaoming, who was beside Chen Yan, leaned over: The expert case handler of the Dan City Criminal Police Team, Lan Feng.
Lan Feng is in charge of the inspection of the ashes after the death of the three people.
Lan Feng looked at Chen Yan: After the case happened, we immediately tested the leftover substances of the deceased.
Chen Yan nodded.
In this case, it cannot be called an autopsy.
Because it's all turned into ashes, so what corpses are there?
Click.
Three photos appear on the screen.
Team Chen, this is a picture of the ashes left behind by the three people after they spontaneously ignited.
Due to the erosion of the rain, especially the ashes of Li Wei's body, the first deceased, there is very little stock.
We collected more ashes from the second deceased, Chen Pingping, and the third deceased, Wu Jianguo.
The main component of the ashes is coke.'
According to the analysis, there are charred carbonized ashes of protein, carbonized ashes of bones, and coke after carbonization of some fibrous substances.'
There are three inspection reports for switching between projection screens.
By comparing and analyzing the surveillance video, we should be able to confirm that the fibrous carbides left at the death scene of the deceased should be the carbides of the clothes and umbrellas worn by the deceased.'
And this one, three sites, all with fine metal residue.
click.
The photo was switched again: After testing, it was confirmed that this is the debris formed by the condensation of water after the aluminum product melted. The specific components include iron and aluminum.
It should be impurities from the violent burning of the umbrella's skeleton.
Are there any other discoveries?
Although Chen Yan had already surveyed the scene, and opened the olfactory gene lock and visual gene lock.
However, since the crime took place outdoors and it was raining, many traces could no longer be detected by smell and eyes.
Lan Feng shook his head: In terms of ashes testing,
No other findings have been made at this time.
Ash residues, this kind of thing is actually not found to be normal.
No matter what it is, as long as it is a carbohydrate, after it is fully burned and finally carbonized, it will form something similar.
Just carbon, nothing else remains.
Chen Yan nodded and looked at the other members of the task force: If you have any clues or suggestions, please tell me.
Three strange and bizarre spontaneous combustion cases have surpassed our previous cognition.'
If you have any questions, ask them.
Team Echen, I have a question.
This is the backbone of the detective team, Liang Ying. Zhang Yaoming introduced to Chen Yan
Chen Yan nodded: Tell me, the case analysis meeting, everyone expresses their opinions.
Everyone, just because I was sent by the Provincial Criminal Police Brigade, don't let me let you go.
Chen Yan spread his hands: Everyone has also seen that when I came to Dan City, I was the commander-in-chief.
In the end, it is up to everyone to handle the case. We will work together to solve the case in the shortest possible time.
Liang Ying nodded: Yes, Team Chen.
The others looked at each other and nodded.
What they are most afraid of is that their superiors do not trust them or are not satisfied with the process of handling the case.
Chen Yan's arrival is actually to take over Zhang Yaoming's original commanding position.
But, fortunately, there is one thing, as Chen Yan himself said.
Chen Yan was the only one who came to Dan City this time.
In this case, it is definitely necessary to rely on the local detectives in Dan City to form a task force.
In this way, if the case is solved, they have the credit, and if the case is not solved, Chen Yan will stand up.
Therefore, everyone welcomes Chen Yan's arrival.
Furthermore, this Chen Yan had just obtained first-class personal merit.
In the past six months, they have learned about Chen Yan's notification and awards almost every month.
Captain Chen, my question is about the metal debris at the scene of the crime.
Liang Ying stood up and pointed to the inspection report on the projection screen: According to the inspection results, the debris is the metal residue of aluminum products. However, we know that the melting point of metal aluminum is more than 660 degrees Celsius. '
And what is the temperature at which the human body burns?
The main combustible substance in the human body should be fat. Is it possible for the umbrella stand to melt at the temperature of this kind of thing? Are there any other questions?
Liang Ying shook her head: Captain Chen, no more.
Anyone else, what's the problem?
Team Chen, I have a question. When the three spontaneous combustions happened, it was raining, but the rain did not extinguish the flames on the three of them:
Team Chen, I also have a question. Even if it is possible for the human body to burn, such as fat, of course it can be burned, but the bones are all carbonized into ashes, and it is possible in about ten minutes.
One after another, everyone present spoke, mainly with questions.
From now on, everyone's focus is on the burning of corpses.
For example, the burning temperature of corpses.
For example, how to turn a corpse into ashes after burning.
All in all, all the investigators considered these three natural events to be contrary to the existing scientific common sense.
In fact, Chen Yan also thought it was impossible.
This is not a scientific situation at all.
But is there anything that can do this?
Before getting the drug cognitive map, the answer given by Chen Yan must be no.
But, don't know, doesn't mean no.
For example, in the map obtained by Chen Yan, there is a plant called Golden Crow Grass.
This herb is very rare, and it grows in places where magma is tumbling.
This grass can extract a rare plant essence.
Once injected into the human body, when the amount reaches a certain concentration and the external conditions permit, it can cause the body to spontaneously ignite.
Of course, this situation does not apply to the current three-person spontaneous combustion case.
Because the external condition for the golden crow grass to cause spontaneous combustion is sufficient sunlight.
rainy day
is impossible.
Therefore, although the case is weird, it is not impossible.
Half an hour later, Chen Yan looked around: Do you have any other questions?
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
All the questions I could think of just now have been answered.
Okay. Chen Yan stood up and walked to the whiteboard in front of the projection screen: I'll talk about some of your questions here.
First, on the issue of spontaneous human combustion.
Is there such a possibility?
Chen Yan drew a check mark on the whiteboard: I tell everyone clearly that there is a possibility.
Last night, after receiving a call from Qin Chuan, Chen Yan did not rest, but stayed up all night
In the early hours of the morning, a vehicle was arranged and rushed to Dan City.
This evening, Chen Yan was not idle.
He consulted a large amount of information on spontaneous human combustion.
Abroad, there are many related reports.
Although the main component of the human body is water, this water does not exist alone.
The lower layer of the skin of the human body has a lot of fat, and under the fat are muscles, fascia and internal organs.
Not to mention, the skin and fat of the human body can be burned, as long as the temperature is around 300 degrees, it can be burned.
And as long as the fat is burned, the temperature of the flame produced is probably above 800 degrees Celsius.
At this temperature, it is theoretically possible to melt the aluminum skeleton in the umbrella.
That is to say, if the burning of corpses is established, then the theoretical possibility of causing the current scene exists. Next, there is the fundamental problem. '
Why is the human body natural?
Here, I only say one hypothesis is possible, ketosis!
Ketosis?
Lan Feng was slightly taken aback: Diabetes?
When Chen Yan heard Lan Feng's words, he looked at Lan Feng slightly surprised.
It is worthy of being a master of handling cases in Dan City.
I just said a noun, this Lan Feng not only knew, but also said most of the induced diseases of ketosis. Yes, it's diabetes.
Lan Feng, how do you know this?
If you know the specific situation, tell everyone.
Chen Yan felt that if Lan Feng knew the specific principles, then for him, the credibility of what he said would be greater. After all, he is a local of the Dan City Police Department.
As a result, Lan Feng shook his head: Captain Chen, I don't know the specific situation.'
It's my old mother-in-law who has severe diabetes and ketosis, so
Oh.
It's okay, let me tell you about the
