National Forensic Doctor

During the time when Liu Jinghui began applying for technical investigation intervention, Jiang Yuan started studying Corpse No. 3.

The mutilation level of Corpse No. 3 was even higher—missing the head, fingers, and toes. Although the remaining parts could be used to determine basics like age, height, and gender, obtaining more precise answers was far more challenging than it had been for Corpse No. 1.

And Jiang Yuan had already spent several days studying Corpse No. 1.

At his level of expertise in forensic anthropology, it was no longer as simple as using the pelvis to determine gender or the long bones to estimate height.

The sternum, vertebrae, and even clavicles could all be used to deduce information about age, height, and gender. Initially, these studies were aimed at solving dismemberment cases. But on a more advanced level, it was akin to solving one problem with six different methods. Although all six methods pointed to the same result, the level of detail naturally varied.

If the problem was big enough, akin to a question with three sub-parts, then it actually represented three distinct stages toward the same goal.

Employing multiple types of bones for analysis not only improved accuracy but also made it easier to uncover information about the deceased’s life.

In short, the deeper the understanding of a single bone, the more inferences could be drawn.

But on all fronts, Corpse No. 3 was less favorable. From a police perspective, it was an exceptionally difficult corpse to analyze.

The same was true for Jiang Yuan.
