National Forensic Doctor-Chapter 911 - 849: He Has a Part-Time Job

Clap clap...

A plump big sister, came trotting along the beach.

A photographer holding a camera, followed closely behind, wildly snapping photos of the big sister’s chest.

Two Doberman playing in the water were so stunned, they rushed out of the waves and barked loudly at the big sister.

"Ah, that scared me to death!" The big sister sat down on the sand, and the photographer, true to his initial intent, continued to frenziedly snap pictures of her chest and buttocks.

Uncle Qiang hurried over to put leashes on the two Dobermans’ collars, then apologized to the other party.

The photographer waved his hands, just asking him and the dogs to move a bit farther away. Miss Bear Big Sister was somewhat afraid of the dogs, she involuntarily shrank back, but that only made the photographer more excited.

There were very few guests on the beach, including the staff, no one disturbed them, just quietly watching.

"Let It Be..."

Jiang Yuan’s phone vibrated while starting to sing.

The photographer brother turned his head sharply to look over, feeling that his creation was being disturbed.

Jiang Yuan raised his glass to signal, and drank it all in one go, then answered the phone: "Hello..."

"Captain Jiang, it’s Old Kong. Thank you so much, we caught the suspect, I just wanted to let you know." The chief of the Pudong Airport police station, Kong Xueping is as happy as a kid. This serious injury case, for him as the chief of Su Island’s airport police station, means he can comfortably spend a year, no matter whether it’s being praised or evaluated for promotions, in terms of pursuing fugitives and unresolved cases, they’d have to give him full marks.

And for this case, what effort did Kong Xueping have to put? Recalling it, he could only say: none!

Is picking up someone at the airport strenuous? Kong Xueping drove from his office to a distant spot, even shorter than the walking distance for passengers at Pudong Airport. Arresting was not tricky at all, the perpetrator did not run away, he stayed locally and got married, when police came to arrest him, they just took him away, the brutality of the crime was nowhere to be seen.

"No problem, it’s best that you caught him." Jiang Yuan smiled, slowly feeling a buzz from the strong coffee he consumed.

Kong Xueping still couldn’t resist being polite for a bit longer: "We actually paid quite the attention to this case, didn’t expect the fingerprint that originally didn’t match, you matched it in no time!"

"Well, there are some different academic views in this field." Jiang Yuan didn’t need to elaborate, his fingerprint identification technology was multidimensional and collaborative, overlapping multiple Level 4 and even Level 5 techniques, compared to possibly only Level 1 technicians in Su Island, there was no comparison.

After all, Su Island is just an ordinary fishing and industrial island, the local crime rate is also not high, just one or two murder cases a year, similar to Ningtai County, there’s neither the need nor the resources to sustain a high-level fingerprint expert.

When they encounter a case, being able to consult a fingerprint expert is already considered good conditions.

Kong Xueping chattered a lot more, and finally said: "Captain Jiang, if you need anything, just call my phone anytime, I’m on standby 24 hours, always waiting for your summons."

"Hmm, you are too polite, if I come across suitable fingerprints, I will send them to you." Jiang Yuan knew what the other person wanted, and wasn’t bothered.

His reputation was already well-known, and the number of cases contacted by Huang Qiangmin was endless. On the other hand, helping with fingerprint comparisons and such was basic for a forensic expert, even if everyone is busy and can’t respond to everything, when encountered, they would still help, and Jiang Yuan was no exception.

Like now, Jiang Yuan still occasionally answers questions in groups like "Shan Nan Fingerprint Exchange Group", but his frequency has reduced significantly. Forensic police chiefs who truly run into issues would bring their files to consult with Jiang Yuan, just like they would consult other experts.

For a major case, making a special trip is not really a big deal.

Jiang Yuan staying on Su Island now, it’s quite normal for Kong Xueping to take advantage of that.

Kong Xueping repeatedly thanked him, cheerfully hung up the phone, thought for a moment, then called two people to get some seasonal fruits and local snacks to send to the hotel.

His status in Su Island is pretty good, but he also knows that for outsiders, he is just the chief of a police station, people like Jiang Yuan typically by-pass him, likely because he offered a business card at the beginning.

Two subordinates drove a Fit, and while walking they quickly arranged the various items.

Su Island is a small place, the so-called local snacks, seasonal fruits are just that few, just a bit of seasonal limitation. The visitors and friends who come and go generally receive similar things.

The most costly local expenses are still seafood feasts, but it’s best eaten at the restaurant itself, or else it’s just some dried fish and eel, which may not necessarily be appreciated by people from other places.

...

On the beach, two more young ladies joined the shooting team.

The photographer also got an assistant, who carried a reflector looking particularly energetic. The photographer held the camera with one hand and kept snapping photos, continuously saying something funny.

Jiang Yuan dozed off in a beach chair, the coffee’s effect fading, and the alcohol taking over.

Uncle Qiang had no choice but to keep the two Dobermans by his side, each on one side, as he and Jiang Fuzhen scrolled through their phones while holding the dogs.

While they were scrolling, the photographer’s assistant came running over, smiling broadly: "Guys, we would like to take some shots of the background here, could you please make some space for us?" ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Uncle Qiang stood up to look around and said, "There are so many open spaces; just shoot there."

"Ah, the girls are not comfortable with people in front of them. Guys, it’s a bit of trouble but could you move a bit further over there?" the assistant said cheerfully, handing over two bottles of mineral water: "Help us out, please."

Jiang Fuzhen coughed twice and said, "Alright, we’ll move over."

Uncle Qiang then called out to Jiang Yuan, and they moved some ten meters aside, while the hotel’s butler ran back and forth relocating various items.

Jiang Yuan, still in a daze, also moved to the side, turning his heartfelt exposure towards the direction where a few female internet celebrities were striking poses.

"Come on, look this way... you don’t need to look at anyone else... everyone is so beautiful, just think, once we post these photos, right, the Three Beauties of Su Island..." the photographer flattered casually, continuously pressing the shutter without letting go.

Jiang Yuan looked sideways at the three female internet celebrities, but gradually, his gaze fell on the photographer.

From a forensic doctor’s perspective, the photographer is a profession well-suited for entry-level Forensic Anthropology trainees.

Photographers suffer from quite severe occupational diseases as they need to carry cameras for long periods, bending forward and backward, straining the whole spine from the neck to the shoulders, to the waist, and down to the tailbone, and their knees from kneeling while taking pictures often have issues, and prolonged standing could also lead to varicose veins.

Therefore, for photographers with over ten years of experience, their bones could provide insightful learning for Forensic Anthropologists with less than three years of experience.

"Brother... could we look at some scenery instead?" The photographer noticed Jiang Yuan’s gaze, immediately interpreting it as lecherous stares towards the female internet celebrities, and came over unhappily saying, "We are rushing with our photography; your staring affects our work. Have some water, cool it down, and if you’re really interested, you can call me later."

After speaking, the photographer smiled, set down a bottle of soda water, and placed a business card underneath it.

The photographer walked away, and Jiang Yuan per his suggestion picked up the business card, turned around, and casually took out a can of fingerprint powder from his bag.

Sprinkled the powder, brushed it off, and then collected the fingerprint...

Since Jiang Yuan had been drinking, it wasn’t suitable for him to conduct serious fingerprint comparisons. Instead, he felt like the photographer’s way of talking and acting seemed a bit improper, as if he was struck by a hard punch. Especially, taking photos with internet celebrities and then leaving his phone number seemed easily associated with procuring prostitution.

Jiang Yuan directly photographed with a PAD, obtaining the fingerprint image of the photographer.

He swiped once... No matching fingerprints.

Jiang Yuan slightly adjusted the marking points on the fingerprint.

He swiped a second time... Still no matching fingerprints.

Jiang Yuan touched his chin, turning back to look at the photographer and honestly, it was quite surprising that this guy hadn’t left any records with the police.

Thinking it over, Jiang Yuan silently took the two mineral water bottles the assistant had given earlier and lifted all the fingerprints from them.

The assistant photographer had handled these two bottles of mineral water, so naturally, his fingerprints were preserved on them. Jiang Yuan wasn’t sure which were his, so he entered the multiple lifted fingerprints into the system for a search.

Before long, the identity information of the assistant photographer appeared, and upon closer inspection, indeed he had a criminal record, mainly involving harboring and introducing others to prostitution...

That’s more like it!

Jiang Yuan nodded in satisfaction, then took the photographer’s fingerprints again, studying them thoroughly and marking them carefully.

He swiped the third time... No matches in the first two pages of 40 fingerprints.

Generally speaking, with fingerprints compared to this extent, Jiang Yuan would no longer continue. After all, if the similarity of the first 40 fingerprints isn’t sufficient, the possibility of a match later is even lower.

But Jiang Yuan thought it over and opted to check only the incomplete fingerprints in the software.

This time, the swiped fingerprints were all above medium-level damage.

Jiang Yuan scanned through, stopping at the seventh fingerprint.

It was only one-third of a fingerprint, but the part that was captured was relatively clear, though there weren’t many points to mark.

However, from Jiang Yuan’s perspective, even though there were few marking points, the probability of a match was very high.

He flipped through the related case again—it was about the sale of new drugs, and the main criminal was practically at the level of facing execution.

Jiang Yuan nodded to himself, as this seemed about right. Those who are pimps have surely not escaped being targeted. Those overly cautious pimps should all be assumed to have side jobs!
