Chapter 57: The Truth That Is Not the Truth
"Hachijo died, and so far he has died of cardiac arrest caused by hyperkalemia."
"But in addition to the identity certificate, there was a small bottle of ether in the deceased's pocket, and I asked the hospital to check if there was any missing ether."
At the same time, they were also going to call the family of Dr. Hachijo to report the incident.
Someone died at this juncture, and it had something to do with Kashima Akira, so they couldn't help but think about it.
Takasaki Sugi was here to communicate with the hospital about related matters, and Hasegawa came to Kashima Akira's hospital room.
It's half past six in the morning, and it's not yet time for the reporters to arrive, so they're going to have to figure things out as much as they can before then.
Walk into the ward.
"Kashima-san, are you feeling better lately?" Hasegawa asked.
"Much better, did I hear that Dr. Hachijo died suddenly?" Kashima Akira had some coldness on his face, after all, with Yanagiyama Taiichi in front of him, he would definitely not have a very good face, but due to the curiosity of the young man, Kashima Akira should have asked more.
"yes, it was found this morning." Hasegawa nodded: "But did you know so quickly?" ”
"Sister Nurse told me." Kashima said lightly.
The little nurse on the side also hurriedly said, "That's right, I just told Kashima-san, after all, Doctor Hachijo is now in charge of Kashima's condition, so I told him." ”
"I see." Hasegawa nodded thoughtfully, "The time of death detected should be around ten o'clock last night, so where was Kashima-san at that time last night?" ”
"I was in the ward because Dr. Hachijo had made an appointment with me to come for a check-up at 10 o'clock."
"Was anyone with you at the time?"
"No, the nurse sister should have been resting at the time, and I didn't feel uncomfortable, so I didn't call her." Akira Kashima explained very programmatically.
After all, it was last night, and there was nothing to think about.
"Hmm......" Just as Hasegawa was thinking about Akira Kashima's suspicions, a police department suddenly came over, and it seemed that there was something to say, but he looked at Akira Kashima and the nurse.
"It's okay, if only Dr. Hachijo said it directly, he's a doctor in Kashima, even if there is anything, he has the right to know." Hasegawa said there was nothing wrong with it, and he also wanted to see how Akira Kashima reacted.
"That's right, just now Section Chief Takasaki found that there were traces of makeup on the back of the other party's hands, and after cleaning it, he found traces of burns, and then Section Chief Takasaki cleaned up the other party's face as well, and found that the other party was the cleaner in the school."
!
Hasegawa was shocked on the spot, the marks of burns!
Among the clues left by Taiyi Yanagiyama before, there were related burns and burns, and they also guessed that this was caused by smoke bombs before, after all, under the car, smoke bombs were so close.
The combustion of white phosphorus in the smoke bomb can release a large amount of heat energy.
When I went back to ask the staff and the driver afterwards, they also seemed to see burn marks on the back of each other's hands.
That is to say, the Hachijo doctor who died suddenly in the hospital is the robber of the 3 billion yen robbery, and the person who set the fire before!
Could it be that Akira Kashima and him are really not in the same group?
Their target should be Aimi Yotsutani, if it is a gang, then it is impossible not to know that Aimi Yotsutani was discharged from the hospital.
But if you push forward, it is also very inconsistent for Akira Kashima to rescue Aimi Yotsutani.
Then he didn't think about the possible reason for the infighting, because this series of clues were connected, and it was impossible to prove that they were in a gang.
So, who is that person targeting this time?
Could it be someone in the VIP ward?
Akira Kashima's suspicion has been subconsciously ruled out.
Although he was skeptical, Kashima still stumbled when he walked, and it was very difficult to walk just to the office.
Not to mention how to stimulate the other person to cardiac arrest?
It can be done with current medical and pharmaceutical means, but it is difficult to do it without a trace.
But speaking of traces......
Hasegawa suddenly thought of a way!
"Kashima-san, then you can recuperate with peace of mind, and I also apologize on behalf of myself for doubting your behavior during this time."
I didn't expect Hasegawa to apologize.
However, looking at the other party's expression and the micro-expressions on his face, Kashima Akira also heard that the other party was sincere in saying this.
"It's okay, anyone will be angry if this kind of thing is changed, now that you have investigated clearly, don't doubt me anymore, after all, I'm just a high school student." Akira Kashima also expressed his forgiveness.
Then Hasegawa left the ward.
Having walked out of the ward, he walked towards the operating room where the scavenger's body was kept!
Go faster and faster!
He now had something in his mind that he wanted to verify.
If you use drugs, you can cause this situation, and if you use ether, this chance will increase infinitely!
"I have an important clue! Look at his armpits! Hasegawa rushed in and immediately shouted.
"Armpits?"
"That's right! If you take a drug bolus, the armpit is the easiest place to reach the heart! ”
Hearing this, the medical examiner immediately began to examine the armpit of the deceased, and now the application has not yet come down, and they cannot perform an autopsy.
"There are no pinholes in the armpits." The medical examiner looked at it twice and found no traces.
"Not under the armpits, is it somewhere else? Where else can a bolus be made that is not easily spotted? ”
"Behind the ears, nasal cavity." The medical examiner, based on his own experience, quickly came up with two answers.
"Look at these two places!" Hasegawa continued, "If some organic compounds are injected into the bolus, it will be difficult to detect cardiac arrest at the same time, but once we find the pinhole, we can get closer to the truth!" ”
The forensic doctor starts to move his hands when he speaks, and he can see it behind his ears, but he needs a special instrument in his nostrils.
The doctor next to him as an assistant went to get the instrument.
But they checked it around and still didn't find where the pinhole was.
It's head-scratching.
The murderer pretended to be a doctor and was about to come to the hospital to kill someone, but before he could do it, he died of illness first.
In any case, it reveals the bizarre.
But the facts are clearly laid out, and they can only believe that sentence again.
One case excludes all impossibilities, and the remaining one, even if it is incredible, is the truth.
Takasaki Sugi watched Hasegawa busy for a long time, but in the end he still didn't find the pinhole, so he walked over and patted Hasegawa on the shoulder.
"Forget it, Brother Hasegawa, this should be a coincidental incident, wait until you go back and let the forensic doctor perform the autopsy, and then issue a report to close the case."
Hasegawa sighed.
That's all there is to it.
From the very beginning to the present, not a single murderer has been caught.
The place where the homeless man died was a construction site in the fifteenth block, and then they asked many people at the time, and others said that they saw a middle-aged, slightly chubby, Mediterranean man walking with the homeless man.
Then the homeless man should have been killed by the teacher.
The teller's death should have been an accident, otherwise no one would have been able to explain the probability.
There are also teachers and tellers, and the deceased should be accomplices, perhaps because of the death of the teller, they began to be suspicious of each other, and then the cleaner used Kashima Akira's students to arrange the kite string and disguise the case of Ueno Okade as an accidental death.
Maybe the other party's plan is not finished yet.
After the robbery, they were not satisfied with the money, so they targeted Aimi Yotsutani.
Kidnapping or killing to extort money from the Yotsuya Foundation.
For the first time, he was saved by Akira Kashima.
The second time he came one step late, and when he knew that Aimi Yotsutani was not in the hospital, he chose to kill Akira Kashima to vent his anger.
The truth should be like this.
