772: Chapter 715: Judging by Appearances 772: Chapter 715: Judging by Appearances “Captain Zhan is here.”
Just like any other day, Zhan Kan took the subway to the vicinity of his workplace, then walked over to the restaurant for breakfast, and encountered an unexpected situation.
Sobody actually made a point to greet him!
As a rookie among forensic doctors, Zhan Kan didn’t interact much with other departnts.
Although he wasn’t invisible, his usual routine was to arrive and leave the office quietly.
No one ever t him with a smile in their face.
“Is that…
Captain Wang?” Zhan Kan quickly recognized the person.
“We handled that serious injury case before, you were the one who did the forensic assessnt, right?” Captain Wang said cheerfully, “Haven’t had breakfast yet?”
Zhan Kan thought to himself, If I had already eaten, why would I be at the restaurant…
Fortunately, he was a little chubby guy with good emotional intelligence, and simply smiled, “Yes, just grabbing a bite before heading to the office.”
“You’ve been working hard, really hard.
Oh, let swipe mine too…
Don’t be shy, don’t be shy…
Let do it, let do it…” Captain Wang insisted while they exchanged pleasantries, finally settling with gifting each other a bottle of drink.
Zhan Kan “phew” sighed with relief, plopped down into his chair, picked up a piece of at with his chopsticks, and prepared to truly enjoy himself.
Starting the morning with a aty breakfast was the best reward for putting up with the tedious pleasantries!
“Captain Zhan!”
Another surprised call ca from behind him.
Zhan Kan stared intently at the piece of at 8 centiters in front of his lips, thought quickly for 0.8 seconds, and reluctantly let his chopsticks retreat from it.
“You can just call Little Zhan,” he replied with a smile, not recognizing who it was.
“That won’t do, if soone hears, they might think I’ve beco a branch chief.” Amidst hearty laughter, the person patted Zhan Kan on the shoulder, then added, “Captain Zhan, is it okay to add you on WeChat?
I am Zhao Qixing from the first division…”
Zhan Kan hurriedly pulled out his phone to add the contact.
After a few more words of small talk, Zhan Kan finally saw him off and sat back down with a long sigh, imdiately grabbing that piece of at again.
“Captain Zhan!”
Crack.
Zhan Kan cut through that piece of at with his chopsticks, and when he turned his head, his chubby face was already covered with a smile.
…
The office.
Delayed by more than ten minutes due to “social interaction” rather than at, Zhan Kan sneaked into his temporary workstation on tiptoes, set down his stuff, and started his day’s happy work.
Wiping the desks, sweeping, mopping the floor, watering the plants, boiling water…
Zhan Kan busied himself tirelessly.
Had it not been for the high-performance computers from three years ago being able to boot up instantly, Zhan Kan would have counted the ti and turned on everyone’s computers, too.
8:40 AM.
Pang Jidong and others gradually arrived at the office, chit-chatting and laughing, until Jiang Yuan walked into the office.
Zhan Kan carried a small stool over, obediently sitting next to Jiang Yuan.
For the past few days, his main activity had been sitting and watching beside Jiang Yuan.
The complexity of Skull Restoration Skill is extrely high, and it cannot be mastered overnight.
Since Zhan Kan has no superpowers to use, he could only mainly watch.
In the past, he could not even see everything fully, and even when he did see sothing, he might not understand what he was looking at.
Nowadays, when Jiang Yuan works, he at least introduces the functions of the tools he uses to Zhan Kan, and sotis even explains the thods of use.
Zhan Kan sowhat mastered so of this content, and after watching Jiang Yuan’s practice, he could go back and practice and study on his own.
As for not learning…he definitely wouldn’t master it imdiately, but as long as he worked hard day and night, there would eventually co a day when he would learn.
This is like the white cylindrical pegs used in Skull Restoration Skill: the curves of the face are undoubtedly complex, but if you divide them up, the finer the division, the simpler the individual situations beco, and the more accurate the final results.
Of course, the threshold for fine division is not low either.
Just like Jiang Yuan once explained about the problem with the upper and lower lips, if it were just a Skull Restoration Skill from level LV1 to LV2, they almost never discuss the thickness of the upper and lower lips, just assuming uniform thickness by default.
Because discussing thickness involves discussing ethnicity or race, and that alone makes the difficulty skyrocket.
And even if that issue were resolved, not all ethnicities or races have corresponding research.
Without data, making judgnts would be aningless.
However, for LV5 level Skull Restoration Skill, these are not problems.
“It should be about right now,” said Jiang Yuan as he checked and rechecked before hitting the save key.
Zhan Kan, who had been watching all morning, didn’t know when he had zoned out.
Only when Jiang Yuan spoke did he suddenly snap back to attention and looked up to see that Jiang Yuan’s computer had already started to buzz.
Shortly after, a photo appeared on the left side of Jiang Yuan’s screen.
On the right were a long row of photo thumbnails.
One benefit of using a computer for skull restoration is that many images can be produced at once—after all, most of the values are estimated, so there will invariably be errors.
Most forensic doctors, when assigning values to soft tissues, typically refer to tables to provide the most likely value.
This is the most standard and safest practice, but it certainly doesn’t yield the best result.
The software, through value fluctuation, offers more choices, allowing technicians more room to select.
Jiang Yuan selected the top 10 images and pulled them for facial recognition.
The results of the image comparisons ca out quickly.
Because the settings were relatively broad, out of 10 images, a total of 3 ID cards were produced.
Jiang Yuan briefly looked at them without going into detail himself, and first dialed Tao Lu’s number.
After simply saying a few words, and then silently chanting a mantra to “strive through the arduous Shu Road”, Tao Lu appeared, hopping and skipping joyfully like a little deer.
“Have you determined the identity of the body?” Tao Lu asked cheerfully.
“We need to send soone to verify it,” said Jiang Yuan as he printed out the information for the 3 ID cards and handed them to Tao Lu.
“Mmm-hmm, that’s simple,” Tao Lu replied as he pulled out his phone.
After a few words were spoken, he looked up at Jiang Yuan with a smile and said, “I was thinking this case might drag on for a while, didn’t expect it to be so quick…”
“We’re still confirming the identity, there’s still a distance to go before the case is solved.”
Tao Lu smiled without saying a word.
He was now more relaxed than Jiang Yuan, because the specifics of the case weren’t his responsibility.
And when it ca to Jiang Yuan working cases, efficiency was usually high enough.
“This body looks quite good-looking,” Liu Jinghui said, having heard the news and co over just in ti to see Jiang Yuan’s screen.
Jiang Yuan was taken aback for a mont before he realized what he ant and said, “The victim has mixed Miao Yao heritage, and Miao Yao won usually fit the modern aesthetic well.”
“Right, weren’t there any missing person reports?” Liu Jinghui inquired further.
Jiang Yuan looked again and shook his head, “No missing person reports.”
“She’s so attractive; she should be the focus of attention wherever she is.
To go missing for so long without anyone reporting…
this case is not simple,” Liu Jinghui stated without looking at the details, but his experience was enough to make this conclusion just by looking at the face.
