Chapter Eighty-Four: Scene Transfer
After Conan called Suzuki's butler, Ogata looked him squarely and asked him something he needed to know. And the Suzuki butler also answered honestly what he knew, allowing the transparency of the case to surface.
He took out his notebook, which Ogata had bought on his first day back in Japan, and had used most of it now, and it was densely packed with words, records and inferences made in previous cases, as well as structural diagrams about the logic of thinking.
Forensic scattered thinking is often reflected in the fact that when some evidence containing memory points and exploitability is concentrated on the visual, it can penetrate the context, find the general structure of a case, and then find the heart.
The pen stopped and went on the notes, and Ogata's seriousness made Mori Kogoro on the side a little embarrassed, no matter how he looked at the younger generations now, this forensic sense of mission was convincing enough.
Returning to the corpse again, Ogata stared at Ichiro, who was lying on the ground lifeless, his eyes flashing again, and finally found the evidence that the deceased wanted to tell him the most
The whole autopsy process was very long, and the members of the Qiben family outside the door were very impatient. Especially the pair of Qimoto Qiujiang and Long Nan, yawning and urging vigorously.
And Shiji Kimoto leaned against the wall, not knowing whether to close his eyes and recuperate, or if he had fallen asleep. Xia Jiang and her newlywed husband Xiao Wu stood outside the door and waited patiently, the two of them held hands, and after all they went through, they looked sweet and happy.
As for Ichiro's mother, Mariko, and his father, they waited for the final autopsy results with a lonely expression. Mariko's tears had dried up, and she looked at her son who had worked so hard to cultivate, and ended her life like this, and the pain of losing her son was hard to imagine.
"When? Are we going to be at the mercy of this damn medical examiner? Long Nan shouted, a little impatient, like his wife Qiujiang, very dissatisfied with the status quo of waiting here in the middle of the night.
Xiaolan hurriedly stood up: "Trouble wait patiently, cousin, he will soon be able to get the result and find out the murderer." She believes that as long as she can buy time for her cousin, the wonderful inferences like before will soon be repeated.
"Nonsense, it's simply suicide in fear of sin, so there can't be a so-called murderer!" Qimoto Qiujiang's words were very harsh, and even a little sarcastic.
Shiji Qimoto opened his eyes at this time: "Akie, be quiet." Just wait. ”
Qiu Jiang snorted coldly, and wanted to dismiss the elder's words, Mariko on the side said angrily with excitement: "Ichiro will not commit suicide, he will definitely not choose to end himself in that way." You don't know him, he didn't swim when he was a kid because he was afraid of the feeling of not being able to breathe. ”
At this time, a long-lost voice seemed to penetrate every centimeter of air outside the warehouse and the door: "Indeed, the cause of Ichiro's death is not the hanging that everyone sees. Faced with the suffocating way of death, he was terrified and tried to struggle"
Qimoto Qiujiang's face changed, and his eyes looked at the warehouse unpleasantly, the guy who was not surprised, the forensic doctor who seemed to be able to see through everything at a glance.
Ogata was a little tired, and two consecutive autopsies in one day took up his brainpower, not to mention, and the time was after the wee hours of the morning, which was the time for sleep and rest.
Chewing gum in his mouth, slowly letting the mint flavor stimulate his mental state, Ogata's gaze met everyone who looked at him, and said calmly, "Everyone has been waiting for a long time, the autopsy report has come out." ”
"Mr. Forensic Doctor, sue me, who killed Ichiro!" Mariko perked up and hurriedly asked.
Ogata chewed the tasteless gum, spit it out gently, put it away in outer wrapper, and threw it into the trash bin in the warehouse.
"Madame, before I tell the truth, I want to ask you one more thing."
"What is it?"
Ogata looked at her calmly and said something that surprised everyone present: "Has Ichiro ever left the warehouse?" ”
What the! Everyone's eyes widened, and they didn't know what kind of evidence Ogata had found to prove that Ichiro had left the warehouse.
Mariko hesitated at first, and then said directly: "It was I who quietly opened the lock of the warehouse door when no one was there." Ichiro is my biological son after all, and I won't watch him get caught and jailed by the police before the boat docks. I was going to let him go, in the back compartment of the pleasure boat, there was a yacht for escape, I thought he would escape without it, but"
"So that's why you firmly believe that Ichiro has no reason to commit suicide." Ogata said slowly.
Looking at Ichiro's corpse in pain, Mariko clenched her palms: "I don't know if I should say it or not, because"
Ogata used his hand to stop her urge to continue, and after the loss of her son, she should leave some room for the mother. What she wanted to say, she could fully understand.
After the death of Izumizo, the patriarch of the Hatamoto family, the Hatamoto family will face the fact that they will fight for the inheritance after returning to Tokyo. And Mariko, as the eldest daughter of Izumizo, is also qualified to fight, but once the crime of letting go of the murderer without permission is implemented, she will lose the opportunity to fight with others.
This is the reality, after the death of his son has become an irreparable situation, it is undoubtedly a smart choice to be able to keep the opportunity to fight for the inheritance, and it is also a condemnation that violates maternal love.
"Why do you know?" Akie Akimoto asked directly.
Ogata pointed to the old warehouse and said in a very affirmative tone, "This is not the scene of the first crime, the place where Ichiro really died was in another room. ”
Although it was his own relative, Mori Kogoro still asked suspiciously, "You mean that the murderer transferred the body of the deceased?" Make the illusion of hanging to confuse everyone? ”
"That's right." Ogata nodded slightly: "People have a mentality, that is, once Ichiro who committed a crime dies, the first thought that comes to mind is that he chooses to commit suicide because he is afraid of going to prison. But I just asked Mrs. Mariko, and Ichiro did walk out of this warehouse, and the most direct evidence is that the lower limbs of the corpse have a stiff body that is clearly different from other places. ”
"Generally speaking, after the strength of the lower limbs of a person is concentrated, it will form the so-called muscle strength, which appears in the living person, which should be a reaction of soreness or tension. But when used on a corpse, it is relied on to lock on, a favorable basis for the deceased's walking range. ”
Ogata walked to the corpse, and the figure was in Xiaolan's eyes, light again!
Although it is constantly staged, although she has adapted to such a scene, the little girl still has an urgent idea in her heart
My cousin is amazing.
