The investigation of this case has entered a relatively long stagnation period.
Haizhou City has a large population, and the volume of orthopedic surgeries has actually been quite significant over the years.
Moreover, there are 13 hospitals in Haizhou City capable of performing relatively complex orthopedic surgeries.
Although the body found in the small park on Qianjin Street had unique fracture characteristics, surgeries involving arm plates aren't uncommon.
Especially since the information is quite outdated, many hospitals have already locked case files from over a decade ago in their archives.
The investigation requires not only tedious and lengthy procedures but also substantial time.
In fact, the hospital archivists have retired, and they know very little about old files.
This requires detectives to personally verify and match each one carefully.
