Chapter 91: The Basis for Suicide
Lin Xinyi came up with this unbelievable conclusion.
And under his guidance, everyone can also imagine what happened in this room at that time:
The deceased set up the scene, stood on a chair, and in a desperate gesture, jumped down to the floor behind him, the tip of the knife held in place by ice.
The cold blade pierced into its body, and hot blood gushed out like a spring.
The massive loss of blood caused his body temperature to drop dramatically, and the shattered ice cubes clung to his body at this time, slowly releasing the chill.
In this way, under his own arrangement, he slowly died in unimaginable pain and cold.
"This guy is too himself, isn't he..."
Lin Xinyi restored the death process in too much detail, and everyone broke out in a cold sweat when they heard it.
A well-informed old criminal policeman like the Twilight Police Department is even more puzzled:
The average suicide person will pursue the kind of suicide method that is painless and quick to stop, and I can't wait to commit suicide like logging out of my online game account, pressing a button and disappearing directly.
But now, this suicide has deliberately designed such an execution ground for himself, so that he can go extremely uneasy at the last moment of his life.
What is he trying to do?
"Is that really the case?"
"Why did the deceased commit suicide in such a tragic way?"
Mao Lilan imagined the pain of the deceased before his death, and once again he couldn't help but express the doubts in his heart.
As she spoke, realizing that she had asked almost the same question as she had asked before, she bowed her head and apologized to Lin Xinyi with a little blush:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin Xinyi, I'm not questioning your reasoning."
"Your analysis of the restored suicide modus operandi is indeed very credible."
"It's just... I still can't understand why the deceased allowed himself to die so painfully. ”
Mao Lilan struggled and expressed his doubts to Lin Xinyi.
And Lin Xinyi was not angry at all because his conclusion was questioned.
On the contrary, he felt that Mao Lilan had the questioning spirit and professionalism of a criminal investigator, and it would be a pity not to become a forensic doctor in the future:
Because suicide cases have the particularity of "self-production and self-sale", no murderer, lack of witnesses, and no evidence of death.
Therefore, when dealing with such a suicide case where the facts are clearly disputed, the medical examiner must be extremely cautious and extremely careful before making a suicide decision.
"I decided to commit suicide, first of all, the most direct basis is:"
"No injuries were found on the body that restricted the deceased's personal freedom, such as bondage, nor restraint injuries or resistance injuries that occurred during the struggle."
"And with the strong physique of the deceased, if he kills him, it is impossible to completely have no resistance process."
"Unless, he's drugged and stunned—"
"In response to this, I will then ask the scientific research institute to conduct toxicological tests on the deceased's heart blood and stomach contents."
"Of course, a forensic autopsy of the deceased is also essential."
Just like the "suicide case of mutilation" that Lin Xinyi encountered when he first arrived, even if there was a conclusion in this kind of case, he would ask for a toxicology test and autopsy.
Because this kind of suicide case with special circumstances is itself unconvincing and suspicious.
Therefore, in order to eliminate suspicion as much as possible, dispel the doubts of family members and the public, and let the deceased die clearly-
Toxicology testing and autopsy are both necessary examination methods.
If this principle is not followed through...
There will be people like the mayor of Kimchi Country and the Neon Country Councillor....
I didn't even do an autopsy, and I "committed suicide" in a daze.
As for whether this kind of hasty suicide is a real suicide... Haha, people say yes, believe it or not.
"In short, the examination of the body will never relax just because a conclusion has been reached."
"In addition to the tests that will be done later, there are other clues that can corroborate that the deceased died by suicide."
Lin Xinyi pointed to the bloody corpse and continued to explain:
"You can see that the deceased is lying face down on the ground now, right?"
"Yes." Everyone nodded in unison.
"Think about it again, if it's the kind of suicide I just said, jumping backwards with a back..."
"After being stabbed, should the deceased lie on his stomach, or on his back or side?"
"It should be lying on your back and on your side!"
"Falling backwards to the ground, the first posture of the deceased after being stabbed should be lying on his back and lying on his side."
"Wait..."
Mao Lilan was slightly stunned, and her expression became very surprised:
"The deceased's current posture is lying on his stomach, doesn't that mean that he is not committing suicide?"
"No, that just means it's suicide."
Lin Xinyi shook his head and said with a smile:
"The grooves in the floor, the melted ice, the chairs standing next to the corpses, are all traces of the actual presence of the scene."
"Assuming that this case is really homicide—it has been argued earlier that the deceased was incapable of resisting at the time of the crime, and was seriously injured and fatally injured by a knife, and there is no chance to leave these traces."
"The only one who leaves these traces is the murderer."
"Then why did the murderer leave such traces that could not be left when killing people, but could only point to the suicide of the deceased?"
"The only possibility is that the murderer wants to kill him and disguise it as suicide."
"Then it's strange - if the murderer wants to disguise the scene as a suicide, he even has a groove, ice, chairs, and other false clues to mislead the police..."
"Then why did he let the deceased lie on the ground like this, so that the scene looked like he had killed?"
"This—" Maolilan fell into deep thought.
She thought about it carefully, and finally figured it out:
"I see!"
"He wanted to pretend to be suicide, but it was impossible for the deceased to lie on his stomach like this."
"So... The deceased actually committed suicide. ”
"It's just that he still remains conscious after falling backwards and being stabbed in the back, and even has a little mobility - it was he who changed his posture and rolled over and fell to the ground."
Maolilan told the truth of what he had guessed.
"That's right." Lin Xin nodded.
And he deliberately squatted down and used the traces on the corpse to provide a basis for this conclusion:
"See?"
"There was blood on the clothes on the left side of the deceased's waist and abdomen, but there was no blood on the clothes on the left side of the lower back."
"If he was lying on his stomach when he was stabbed, blood gushing out of his back, he would not only spray to the left side of his waist and abdomen, but not to the left side of his lower back."
"In this case, it can only mean that the deceased was in a lateral position when he was stabbed."
"At that time, he was stabbed in the back, and the handle of the knife was still exposed and could not be forced."
"So he instinctively landed on his left side and let the handle hang in the air."
"Blood flowed from the wound to the ground, where it quickly accumulated, and soon the left side of the deceased's waist and abdomen, where the deceased was in contact with the ground, became red."
Lin Xin explained one by one, and everyone could imagine the terrible picture of the deceased jumping backwards and being stabbed in the back, supporting the seriously injured body and lying on the ground on his side:
"This side position only lasted for a moment, otherwise with the amount of blood he was bleeding, the blood spots on his clothes on the left side of his waist and abdomen would have been larger."
"After the deceased was stabbed, he just lay on his side and rested for a while, and then he turned over and changed his side lying to lying on his stomach."
"It's probably instinctive – lying on your stomach makes the pain a little less."
"Or maybe it's deliberate – lying on your stomach makes the scene look more like he's killed."
"But in any case, this proves that the deceased's posture after being stabbed was once lying on his side."
"This can support the speculation that the deceased fell backwards and was stabbed in the back, further consolidating the possibility of suicide."
Lin Xinyi restored the details of the deceased's death process in more detail.
And after hearing these details, Mao Lilan couldn't help but feel a tingling in his scalp:
"The truth turned out to be like this..."
"The deceased endured this unimaginable pain just to make his death look more like he killed."
"How much does he hate that person to be so mad?"
She subconsciously spoke her mind.
And at this moment, after experiencing the strong hatred of the deceased with that tragic death...
Everyone present couldn't help but look at Yoko Okino, whose face was already as pale as paper.
Yoko Okino is the owner of this room.
The deceased deliberately committed suicide here, who else could he want to blame?
Even with the average IQ of the identification class, the answer can be thought of immediately:
"Yoko-sama."
"I guess you've noticed it yourself, right?"
"The deceased still clutched a golden hair in his hand."
"If I'm not mistaken, this hair should be yours, right?"
Lin Xinyi's gaze at Yoko Okino was extremely sharp.
When the big star was questioned by the police before, he said that he didn't know the deceased at all.
"You are the one who will blame the dead!"
"Are you sure you really have nothing to do with this deceased?"
"I..." Yoko Okino's eyes flickered, and her delicate facial features were full of complexity.
The agent, Eiichi Yamagishi, gave her a frantic look, but she finally sighed helplessly and was ready to stand up and say everything.
And before Yoko Okino could speak, Lin Xinyi asked in a calm tone:
"He's your ex-boyfriend, right?"
"Huh?" Yoko Okino was slightly stunned: "You, how do you know?" ”
"Because of hatred."
"Because of that cruel, crazy, desperate hatred."
Lin Xinyi sighed for a long time, recalling the shocking cases he had studied and handled:
"It's ridiculous to say, but in my experience:"
"Men and women of the same age who can have such hatred are either lovers or husband and wife."
