The Forensic Doctor Better Than a Detective-Chapter 153 - 135: Leaving Nowhere for the Murderer to Hide
In the photo, Zhang Biao’s left upper canine is a protruding fang.
However, when examining the corpse last night, the deceased’s teeth were very flat.
Instantly, Jiang An found it somewhat incredible.
He hurriedly brought the photo closer.
After a minute, he looked up and asked, "Mr. Zhang, are you sure this is a picture of Zhang Biao while alive?"
A hint of doubt flashed across Mr. Zhang’s face.
"That’s right, it’s him!"
"At the start of our project, we specifically hired professional photographers for shooting."
After a brief pause, Jiang An asked, "I want to take this photo away; would that be convenient?"
"Absolutely!"
"Anyway, he’s no longer around, keeping the photo is useless."
Subsequently, Jiang An drew the photo from the album.
As he walked out of the office, Zhang Yean suddenly asked, "Jiang An, can this photo be of use?"
Jiang An nodded.
"It’s useful! I now suspect the deceased is not Zhang Biao."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yean was momentarily stunned.
"Not Zhang Biao?"
"Junior, how can you be sure the deceased isn’t Zhang Biao?"
Zhang An stopped walking, turned his head, and said, "Sis, look at this photo, the left upper canine of Zhang Biao is a fang."
"But, I clearly remember that the deceased’s maxillary teeth were very flat, not matching these teeth at all."
"Moreover, through analysis of the wear on the deceased’s teeth, I believe their age should be over 50."
"However, Zhang Biao’s actual age is only 35."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan was momentarily stunned.
Could it be that there’s really a problem with the deceased’s identity?
It shouldn’t be!
At that moment, Zhang Yean just felt her head swelling, unable to comprehend where the problem lied.
From the bloodstains on the liquor bottle in the cabinet and the gene comparison of the bones, to the discovery and extraction of fingerprints, these indirect proofs align with logical reasoning.
Why does a 180-degree reversal occur concerning personal identity?
While Zhang Yean was puzzled, Zhang An continued, "I suspect Zhang Biao is using a staged death to disrupt our investigation."
Zhang Yean was even more confused, as if her brain had short-circuited.
She simply couldn’t comprehend the logic sequence.
"Staged death?"
"What’s the motive?"
"Why would a perfectly fine person stage their death?"
After a moment, Jiang An said word by word, "Because Zhang Biao might actually be the murderer, so he uses this method to evade investigation."
Immediately, Jiang An quickly took out his mobile phone and dialed Li Jian’s number.
"Hello!"
"Mr. Li!"
Li Jian asked, "Is the scene investigation over?"
"Mr. Li, the scene investigation is over, but we’ve made a major discovery."
"Go on."
"We found the deceased is likely not Zhang Biao."
"What?"
"Not Zhang Biao?"
On the phone’s other side, Li Jian was sitting in his office drinking tea.
Suddenly, he was choked by the remark.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Immediately, Li Jian put down the teacup and asked seriously, "Jiang An, this isn’t something to joke about."
"Explain clearly what’s going on?"
"Just now, we found photos of Zhang Biao at work before his death, showing his left upper canine as a fang."
"But during our examination of the corpse, we found the deceased’s teeth very neat, not a fang."
"Moreover, I deduced the deceased’s age through the wear on his teeth, which is already over 50."
"Yet, Zhang Biao’s actual age is only 35, indicating a significant age discrepancy."
"All things considered, I believe the deceased isn’t Zhang Biao."
After Zhang An finished speaking, there was silence on the other end for a long time.
Finally, Captain Li Jian sighed deeply, "I trust your forensic judgment."
"If this is the case, it indicates Zhang Biao isn’t dead."
"Yet, why would a security guard resort to such a switch-and-substitute method of death?"
On the call, Jiang An responded word by word, "Because he might actually be the murderer."
"He’s the murderer?"
"Earlier, in the kitchen Zhang Biao used, we found a fruit knife missing, with the style and material similar to the murder weapon."
"Hence, I suspect Zhang Biao is highly likely the murderer."
Instantly, Li Jian stood motionless, shocked.
The information from the entire case surfaced in his mind.
After a long while, Li Jian asked, "Are you still at the construction site?"
"Yes!"
"I’ll be there shortly."
Twenty minutes later, Li Jian, Chen He, and Wan drove to Jiangtai Construction Site.
The originally 40-minute journey was halved.
Upon getting out of the car, Li Jian saw Jiang An and Zhang Yean standing at the construction site entrance.
Li Jian hurried over and asked again, "Are you sure this deceased isn’t Zhang Biao?"
Jiang An handed over Zhang Biao’s photo.
"Based on analysis of the teeth’s shape and wear, I’m sure internally."
Li Jian took the photo and carefully observed it.
Chen He and Wan also hastily approached.
After a moment, Chen He asked, "If the deceased isn’t Zhang Biao, then where did Zhang Biao go?"
Immediately afterward, the five of them went to the makeshift kitchen.
Li Jian carefully examined the knife holder; indeed, there was a fruit knife missing.
Then, he bent down and picked up the vegetables under the cutting board.
"The selling date is yesterday."
"If Zhang Biao used this way to stage a death, then something must have happened suddenly yesterday."
Wan’s face was filled with confusion. "Now, I’m getting a bit muddled."
"How is it possible for an ordinary fire case to relate to Liu Jun’s death case?"
"If the deceased is not Zhang Biao, then who is this deceased?"
