Life in North America, you call this an autopsy officer?!

Chapter 150: Chapter 129: Identity of the Deceased, Strange Sixth Sense_2

The first method was to extract the fingerprints or DNA of the deceased and check if the police database had any records of the individual.

This actually had a slim chance of success.

Due to the protection of citizens’ personal privacy, only those who had committed crimes, been imprisoned, or had been involved in certain cases had their fingerprints and DNA retained in the police database; ordinary citizens did not have such information on file.

The second method was to use facial recognition technology.

Thanks to the development of technology.

The well-funded Los Angeles Police Department already had the necessary technical support.

The female corpse’s appearance was relatively intact; as long as the individual was a local from Los Angeles County, similar citizen records could be found through facial recognition technology, and then the victim’s identity could be confirmed.

This method was the most reliable but required the assistance of the technical department at the Los Angeles Police Headquarters — Parker Center. It wasn’t possible to do that today.

The third method was to issue a public notice, to have someone claim the body.

This method was seldom used as it could easily spook the criminal elements.

...

The B6 group’s laboratory was somewhat basic, but used for fundamental fingerprint extraction and upload, it was very simple, featuring specialized equipment for quick extraction and upload without the need to painstakingly perform comparisons.

Tidying up the messy autopsy room.

It was now nine o’clock at night.

At this hour, finding something to eat was impossible.

As Brian’s body grew stronger, so did his appetite; with no other options, he had to send Green out with a weapon to run an errand to the 24-hour convenience store to buy some high-energy food to bring back.

Half an hour later.

Green hadn’t returned yet, but Brian had already completed the fingerprint comparison test.

The result was unexpected.

The police database not only had records of the deceased, but the individual was also a habitual offender!

...

Brian clicked on the deceased’s information page: Soraya Raton, female, 23 years old...

According to the file records.

The female victim, full name Soraya Raton, came from a single-parent family and grew up living with her mother.

Soraya was a habitual offender.

At the age of fifteen, she had been imprisoned multiple times for crimes such as illegal drug sales, theft, assault, among others.

After her release.

She continued to be incarcerated several times for similar crimes, until there were no more records after she turned 22.

When he saw the charge of illegal drug sales, Brian shook his head.

Where there was illegal, there was also legal; the difference was whether the establishment had a business license, and whether the prostitutes had health certificates.

If you had connections and paid protection money, it was considered legal.

But those charges were high.

So most people preferred to patronize the illegal kind.

As for the vehicles that Brian partook in part-time, similar to freelancing, they were high-end private businesses, a different model altogether, essentially under the guise of a ’brokerage company’ operated by the Kamor family; they took on business and organized events.

Returning to the present.

Brian continued reading.

The information on the victim, Soraya, ended here.

There wasn’t even a permanent address for her.

However, the database had a comparatively complete record of Soraya’s mother.

Soraya’s mother, only 38 years old this year, must have been about fourteen when she became pregnant with Soraya and then gave birth, and when Soraya was around four, the mother found a man to marry, which lasted until now.

Below the information, there was an address and telephone number for her.

...

All these records were printed out.

Brian was a bit puzzled; Green had been gone for quite a while.

He took out his phone, ready to call Green and tell him to head straight home, then he would also leave work.

Just then, Green ran into the office out of breath, carrying a large box.

He looked somewhat panicked.

Seeing this, Brian raised his nose slightly, "Green, why do you seem so flustered?"

Green set down the box with a helpless expression, "When I went to the convenience store, I encountered a young man robbing the place, and I..."

"You opened fire?"

Brian interrupted Green’s words and asked directly.

Green fell silent for a moment, then nodded, "I don’t know why I reacted so strongly. When I saw him pointing a gun at me, I drew my weapon and shot. It wasn’t until he fell that I realized what I had done."

Brian nodded, "Is it that after you killed him, you realized the robber’s safety was still on?"

Normally, this wouldn’t have been Green’s reaction.

Brian began to understand why his uncle Billy’s ’Mind Reading Technique’ had been so formidable.

Strong observation skills meant one could discern a lot from the microexpressions of an unguarded person and, if one understood that person, the effect was indeed not much different from mind reading.

Green looked at Brian with a hint of surprise and nodded again, "Yes, it was only after I shot that I processed it. These kinds of robberies are usually just for show; it is rare for shopkeepers to fight back, and even rarer for the robbers to actually shoot. When I saw how young the robber was, barely a teenager, and that I had killed him, I felt an indescribable sensation in my heart."

Brian patted Green on the shoulder, "Buddy, you did nothing wrong. If it had been the other way around, it would be your mother crying over your corpse."

It must have been the aftereffects of seeing blood before.

After killing someone and seeing blood, one’s first response to danger is to kill directly until time soothes that stress response.

That’s why after police kill criminals, they are required to see a psychologist and take some time off.

NW had more power, didn’t have such requirements, and correspondingly, the self-recovery pace was a bit slower.

...

After some comforting words from Brian.

Green’s complexion looked a lot better.

He pushed the food he bought in front of Brian, "I’m much better now, boss Brian, but I need to go to the police station to make a statement. I’ll be leaving for today."

NW had a lot of power; as long as it wasn’t a reckless killing, a report filed afterward would suffice.

Green’s case was an accident, so he still had to go through the police procedures, but it wouldn’t impact his work tomorrow.

"Forget it, I’ll come with you."

Brian simply grabbed the food and called on Shi San to accompany Green to the precinct to complete his statement before returning to his apartment.

After eating and taking a shower,

Brian was lying on the couch, about to make an international call to Susan to bother her, when a warm flow suddenly surged through his body.

Under Supercomputer Perception, the feedback of ’Gift Energy +10’ also emerged in his mind.

Brian was taken aback.

What was this all about?

After a moment’s thought, he realized: this was from the previous case of the annihilated family, where the multiple personality disorder murderer’s second personality had collapsed and self-destructed due to his actions.

"This method really works."

Brian felt somewhat pleased.

He now had a total of 45 units of Gift Energy stored, and he still had a Beastman obsession mission that wasn’t too difficult to complete. After completing that obsession, he would receive a substantial amount of Gift Energy.

He wondered if he would be able to break through the current bottleneck and advance to the next stage after the Enhancement!

Suddenly,

A question interrupted Brian’s anticipation, popping into his mind: who was the person that reported the annihilated family case in the first place?

The case of the annihilated family initially came to light when an unknown man used a street-side payphone to dial 911. The case was then transferred to the precinct, and after feedback from the precinct, it was redirected to the B6 team.

Originally, once the case was solved, the identity of the person reporting the crime wasn’t important.

Brian wasn’t the kind of person to pry into others’ affairs.

But this thought, uncontrollably, had surfaced in his mind just now, as if his Sixth Sense was telling him that there was something more to this matter...
