Chapter 458 Helping to Break the Case “Dr…Dr. Benson, you’re here too!”
He didn’t dare to call the little girl Skylar Benson, for fear of exposing her identity.
Lamont was a little surprised. Why was Captain Lee more excited to see his sister
than to see him?
“Dr. Benson, did you come out to play today?” After he finished speaking, he noticed
the man standing next to Skylar and was almost shocked. “Mr.
Stowe, you’re also here…”
“Mm.’’ Martin only nodded lightly and didn’t have many expressions.
“Paige, how do you know the time of death is about six months ago?” Lamont asked
curiously.
“When the corpse is soaked in water for more than three months, there will be a layer
of white wax-like substance on the surface of the corpse, also known as corpse wax.”
There was a calmness in Paige’s eyes as she continued, “It will take about half a year
for an adult’s corpse to form corpse wax. With the weather, we can roughly deduce
the time.”
However, the time of death was far from enough, because the police wanted to know
the height and age of this person to compare with the missing person database and
find clues.
“Paige, how tall do you think he is?” Lamont came to Paige and asked.
“Around 1.6 meters.” Paige analyzed as she looked at the body before her. “When
they’re of age, their height will decrease by 1.6mm every year, and every 20 years, it
will decrease by 0.1cm. When an adult man is between 40 and 60 years old, his
height will decrease by 1.6cm, and when they’re between 60 and 69 years old, their
height will be 1.5kg shorter than theirs.”
Paige looked at the long bones of the deceased, so she roughly deduced that the
height of the deceased was about 1.6 meters.
The people around her seemed to be looking at a myth, looking at this talking girl in
disbelief.
As for the age of the deceased…
Paige stepped forward and retrieved a pair of gloves from Captain Lee. After putting
them on, she picked up a pair of gloves in front of everyone.
The onlookers were stunned. Who on earth was this girl? She even dared to take a
copy…
The most important thing was that she looked very serious as if she was an expert.
Lamont also put on his gloves and came to his sister’s side. He took the cylinder and
examined it. “You want to find clues through the slits in the skull and arrow-shaped
ones?”
“Yes.” Paige looked at the report. “I think the deceased should be about 35 to 40
years old.”
This time, everyone was stunned. Even Captain Lee couldn’t help but ask, “How do
you know?”
“Look, the place on the skull is an arrow-shaped crack. The healing of the arrowshaped crack starts at 22 years old and ends at 35 years old. In addition, this place is
a pillow bone. The gap between the pillow bone and the roof bone is similar to a
human-shaped crack. The human-shaped crack starts at 26 years old and ends at 47
years old. According to his third grinding teeth, it can be inferred that the deceased is
between 35 and 40 years old.”
Captain Lee and his subordinates didn’t expect to find clues about the victim’s age,
height, and so on so quickly.
At this time, Lamont said, “The DNA can be extracted from the ribs of the deceased.
Compared with the DNA of the missing family members, I believe it will be found
soon.”
“Thank you, thank you so much, Mr. Lusk and Dr. Benson!” Captain Lee didn’t expect
the case to go so smoothly today. He was really lucky to meet two big shots at once.
Lamont nodded and added, “Besides, there is no sign of fighting on his body or limbs,
so we can deduce that it was done by an acquaintance. As for who it was, that soaked
phone will give you an answer.”
“Thank you so much for your reminder, Dr.Lusk.”
