"Do you know you're already popular online?"
"I don't know." Wu Feng answered calmly.
Wu Feng, 37, is one of the few female forensic doctors in Shanghai. Not long ago, her appearance in a Shanghai police documentary unexpectedly became popular on Weibo and Station B.
According to the documentary, after wu feng graduated from the forensic department of Sichuan University, because Shanghai only recruited one forensic doctor that year, she had no public security work experience and went to Shanghai Public Security College for two years, and then worked as a grassroots police officer at the police station for three years, and finally was transferred to the Yangpu Branch of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau to engage in forensic work.
"This female forensic doctor is really amazing! In order to dream of undergraduate and specialist have read" A netizen intercepted a documentary clip and posted it on Weibo, which has received 220,000 likes so far. "Women really blossom in suffering." Some netizens left such comments. In the eyes of some netizens, Wu Feng's experience is quite romantic.
Wu Feng felt that this was not relevant to her own experience. "In fact, there are really no deep ideas, just a little effort to get closer!" In her narrative, the choice of forensic medicine as a career ideal has a great accidental component, almost "a thought difference"; and the reason for "reading undergraduate and then going to a specialty" is different from what everyone imagines, which is a misunderstanding; the 5 years in between is not "suffering" for her, "life is an experience, these are your accumulation".
However, some facts are certain. Wu Feng is indeed an outstanding forensic doctor who has been affirmed by the industry, with an average annual inspection of more than 50 various scenes, a total of more than 500 cases involved in the detection, and is still active in the front line of investigation.
choose
Why do you want to become a forensic doctor? Regarding this question, in Wu Feng's recollection, there are many things that can be answered.
Maybe it was because of the pond in her family's yard when she was a child, where she raised many goldfish and tadpoles, and was fascinated by observing their habits, which planted an interest in biology; it may also be because she watched the TVB criminal investigation drama "Forensic Record" in middle school, forensic doctor Nie Baoyan was cold and professional, and she also wanted to become that kind of professional woman. After the college entrance examination, she filled in the forensic department of the West China Medical Center of Sichuan University, "no one told her." Wu Feng prefers those that look "cool and fun" unpopular majors, and she once thought about studying archaeology, but "I heard that only Tsinghua only recruits students", and the results are not enough. When she received the acceptance letter, Wu Feng's mother was frightened and "lay in bed for a week", and now that she thinks of the choice at that time, Wu Feng feels that it may be "the difference between one thought".
After five years of undergraduate study at Sichuan University, Wu Feng graduated in 2007. When she graduated, she planned to return to her hometown, because she had no public security work experience, and she did not realize her dream of becoming a forensic doctor for a while.
"The most important thing is to find a job", which was the most urgent idea in Wu Feng's heart at that time. She decided to work first and then choose a career, and applied for the Shanghai Public Security College, which is one of the channels for the Shanghai public security system to recruit and train on demand. "Everyone misunderstands that I went to college again, in fact, this is the second specialty, which is essentially a pre-service training course." After graduation, he directly entered the Public Security Bureau. ”
Wu Feng considers himself a "person with few motor cells", but the curriculum of the second specialty contains a lot of physical training. Soon after school started, she accidentally fractured her bones while crossing the obstacle, first her left foot, and a few weeks later, her right foot, "and the cast hit the bottom of her foot all the way to her thigh, and her entire foot was straight." In order to be able to graduate within the stipulated deadline, she took three weeks off and hurried back to school on crutches. The classroom was on the fourth floor, and it was very inconvenient to go up and down, and the male students in the class volunteered to take turns carrying Wu Feng to and from class, so they insisted.
After graduating from the second secondary school in 2009, Wu Feng was assigned to the Zhongyuan Police Station of yangpu public security substation as a grass-roots police officer, responsible for internal management. The content of grass-roots work is relatively trivial, "as small as a paper clip, as large as the police car arrangement, we must coordinate well." Wu Feng performed well, and in 2010 he was awarded the "Five Leading" Communist Party Member, and in 2011 he received the annual personal commendation. But the dream of becoming a forensic doctor has never been put down, "I think I was born to do this line of work", and when she is idle, she will flip through the reference books of her student days and review forensic knowledge.
For three years, she "tried a little harder to get closer." Fill in the file, she filled in the "forensic science" in the specialty column; the police station did a talent portrait, her willing post chose "forensic doctor"; internal career research, she immediately made it clear that she wanted to be a forensic doctor; if she met another forensic doctor at work, she quickly introduced herself, "Your unit lacks forensic doctors, hurry up and take me away." With such strength, soon the entire police station knew that she wanted to practice medicine.
In April 2012, just after returning from her honeymoon in Mauritius, Wu Received a telephone notification that she had been transferred to the Yangpu Branch's Institute of Forensic Science and Technology to work as a forensic doctor. The wait finally comes to an end. When she got the news, she went home and told her husband, "I'm going to do my old job!" ”
scene
According to the "naïve imagination" of Wu Feng's youth, forensic work should be similar to that played in the TV series: holding a scalpel, dissecting the body in a neat laboratory, stripping away the cocoon, and finding key traces.
She remembers the first time she went out to the scene to hold the body. Hanging an adult male hanging above the bed, she struggled to hold the corpse's leg in order to put the body down, while colleagues cooperated to cut the rope around the neck. The body felt particularly heavy when held, because the unconscious person could not match the lifter's strength. The moment the rope was cut, the stiff body fell towards her, "cool to the touch."
Surveying highly corrupt scenes is the most test of willpower. Wu Feng remembers a "large-scale" scene he had been exposed to shortly after working: the man died suddenly at home due to illness, and the body was left on hold for a few days before being found. As soon as the door was opened, the irritating gas gushed out instantly, and all the staff could not hold back, "tear brush down". After several shocks, Wu Feng's ability to withstand is getting higher and higher, and even the harsh scene can be calm and self-assured.
In the height of summer, when temperatures exceed 35 degrees Celsius, she visits up to 6 sites in a day. She has been in the homes of the elderly who live alone several times in the summer, often living in narrow old public houses and having a serious hoarding habit. Wu Feng carried a five- or six-pound toolbox and rummaged through a mountain of items to reach the decaying corpse.
At the scene, forensic doctors not only have to deal with corpses, but also communicate with emotionally agitated family members. Once, after a father hanged himself in his son's home, the older brother insisted that the body spots on the father's lower body were bruises caused by the younger brother's abuse. The elder brother was tall and big, and he brought a group of people to the police station to find Wu Feng to "ask for explanations." Wu Feng took out the photos taken at the scene at the time, methodically explained the relationship between the deposited site of the corpse spot and the cause of death, and finally persuaded the other party.
Forensic doctors must be on call 24 hours a day, and cases often occur late at night and are discovered early in the morning. No matter what he was doing at the time, as soon as he received the call, he immediately went to the scene to investigate, as short as two or three hours, as long as five or six hours, and it was common to carry the body up and down.
As early as when applying for this major, Wu Feng anticipated the hardships that forensic work needed to endure, "If I choose a path, even if I touch the dark, I will go."
If a girl now stands in front of her and says that she also wants to become a forensic doctor, Wu Feng said that she will urge the other party to consider carefully, "The work of forensic doctors is very intense, and I hope not to make a hasty decision based on blood alone."
"So what if someone persuades you like that?"
"I won't listen."
death
As of 2020, Wu Feng has inspected more than 50 scenes of various types every year, and has participated in more than 500 cases. But every time on the way to the scene, Wu Feng still felt nervous, worried about an unpredictable bad situation.
What requires Wu To appear on the scene are all "unnatural deaths" – even if they are not criminal cases, the lives experienced by these deceased people are always stifling. For forensic doctors, to clarify the truth of death, in addition to the anatomy and analysis of pathology, we must also look back at their lives and face highly concentrated pain and suffering, this process allows no matter how much professional training and practical accumulation, it is inevitable to have compassion and issue a few sighs.
Once, two women came with the body of a six- or seven-year-old girl to report the crime, saying that they had died in a car accident. Wu Feng was suspicious when she saw the corpse: the girl's body was not only not hit or crushed by the vehicle, but also covered with bruises and purple whipping marks. Surveillance footage from the site showed that no traffic accidents had occurred within the time claimed by the reporters.
As a mother's intuition, Wu Feng felt that things were not so simple. She asked two women and girls to do a paternity test, which showed that they were not related by blood to the girl. Under the "ironclad evidence", the two finally confessed that the child was "rented" from their parents. Through the dissection, Wu Feng restored the truth of the girl's death - she died of abuse scarred and overwhelmed.
The truth of life is not only cruel, but also shining in the darkness. An elderly person living alone in the community felt that her health was deteriorating, so she asked her neighbors to visit her every day. Sure enough, when she passed away, she was quickly discovered by neighbors. When Wu Feng received the report and rushed to see the neighbors who were familiar with the deceased before he died, standing guard at the door, while folding the paper treasure, he was chatting about his aunt's life. The old man was not alone.
When telling these stories, Wu Feng always had a smile and a faint tone. When asked about the details of the case, Wu Feng often "can't remember", she believes that "forgetting is an important professional skill of forensic medicine", helping her to withdraw from complex emotions and remain calm and rational.
She tried her best to separate work from life. The face of death is always heavy, and sometimes the emotions arising from the case, she will not pour out to her family, trying to digest it in the workplace. Although Wu Feng has never been frightened or withdrawn in the real scene, he usually does not dare to watch suspense dramas and horror movies, because those fragments are "scenes that are not in life for others, and they have really happened to me."
In 2017, Wu Feng's daughter was born. Having seen too many accidents, Wu Feng was extremely sensitive and set many rules for her 4-year-old daughter: no climbing chairs, no standing up on the bed, no near the window, and no touching the family cat without adult supervision. Every time she went out, she held her daughter's hand tightly and did not dare to let go for a moment. Her husband criticized her for being overprotective, but she couldn't stop.
"No one knows which will come first tomorrow or the accident." Engaged in forensic work for 9 years, Wu Feng knows more about the preciousness of life, and has always held the principle of "no regrets" in life. Outside of work, she prefers to spend her time with her daughter. She rarely goes online and doesn't care about hot discussions or misunderstandings. Recently, she also signed a body donation agreement, "fulfilling a small wish that I have been thinking about for a long time."
At the beginning of this year, Wu Feng and his colleagues spent several months investigating a backlog of cases, and finally found the suspect who had been hiding for a long time. The night the investigators went to arrest the target, she did not sleep all night, "both excited and worried." The next morning, she went to work with black circles under her eyes, looking at the pedestrians on the road in a hurry, she was a little surprised: "Suddenly there is a kind of (atmosphere) in literary films, and the years are quiet." You don't know what happened last night, it's fine. ”
