Chapter Seventy-Seven: Investigation
Sweeping his gaze over everyone, Ogata said in a clear voice to the relatives of the Banner family who were surprised by their expressions, "This is my mission, and the forensic doctor's job is to make the truth about the old man's death come to the surface further. ”
"So please don't cross this room without my permission. Because this is no longer a living room, but a murder scene told by the deceased in another language! ”
Mori Kogoro nodded and echoed in a deep voice, "That's right, Ogata is a very powerful forensic doctor, and all the autopsy work will be handled by him before this cruise ship docks." And the rest of the reasoning and judgment will be handed over to me, the famous detective Kogoro Maori! ”
Ogata couldn't help but smile wryly, he was finally able to understand why Conan rolled his eyes so often. This uncle is really confident!
However, I also have to thank Maori Kogoro, because he began to swear in front of everyone that he would be able to find out the murderer, which attracted everyone's attention and created a good autopsy environment for him.
Squatting down, Ogata didn't move the patriarch's body, he first looked at it with his eyes, because the intuitive impression of human beings stayed on the visual first, so from the moment he entered the door, his eyes were locked on every detail of the crime scene.
And now he was the closest person to the corpse of the deceased, and he could clearly see that the patriarch was on the verge of death, his face frozen, his eyes widened, and his face was terrifying and hideous.
The corpse could not speak, but the eyes could reveal information that the medical examiner could read. Generally speaking, euthanized people do not widen their eyes, and their pupils are dilated after contraction, which is obviously caused by extreme pain at the time of death, coupled with the extreme instability of the emotion.
Ogata's hands began to be tested on the corpse's arm, where the biceps brachii was, and began to test the vocal response. In the process of pinching and pressing with a special technique, the arm of the patriarch of Qiben maintained a certain contraction response.
He used his notebook to record the muscle reaction within two hours of the case.
Because the biceps brachii of a cadaver is a rough test of the time of death. The deceased had a muscle contraction reaction within two hours after the incident, and after two hours, it was likely to cause only muscle contraction at the site of the blow. As for death after five hours, there is generally no significant muscle contraction.
Now that the big picture has been confirmed, the next step is to make detailed inferences.
Glancing at Mori Kogoro, he was calming everyone's feelings and trying to reason about the process of the case, but most of it was empty talk without evidence to support it.
Since he did not bring the intraocular pressure test flashlight from the forensic tool, Ogata was able to rely on his professional experience to gently spread the deceased's eyelids with his fingers and then use his mouth to approach the deceased's eyeballs.
"Whew." Ogata gently blew into the deceased's eyeball, then gently touched the eyeball with the tips of his two index fingers above the upper edge of the tarsal plate, and placed the other fingers on the patient's forehead for support, alternating between the tips of the two index fingers to estimate the level of pressure on the eyeballs according to the fluctuating sensation transmitted to the fingertips.
This technique is very old and belongs to the Chinese style, because in later generations there were basically intraocular pressure testing equipment, so there are few opportunities to use it, and in the absence of instruments and intraocular pressure test flashlights today, it can only be confirmed with both hands.
Since the deceased could not cooperate with the intraocular pressure measurement like a living person, the blow blowing just now only stimulated the aqueous humor of the eyes. The eye pressure of a normal person is between fourteen and twenty-one, which can be reduced to ten ten minutes after death and seven in twenty minutes.
In the case of open head injury, the intraocular pressure drops faster and the eyeball softens. So through the tonal test, Ogata came to two conclusions.
The deceased died at around 8:12, within a minute, and the main cause of death was not a brain blow. As I observed with my own eyes, it should have been in the abdomen, where the bleeding area was most severe.
The time of death has been confirmed, and the next step is to further determine the cause of death.
Ogata used two fingers to open the mouth of the deceased, that is, the mouth, and now the tongue is naturally stiff, and there are no bite marks or unnatural bending, which is usually poisoned or suffocated to death, which can be accurately judged by the shape of the mouth and tongue.
There is no excessive color reaction in the walls of the mouth, and there should be no inhalation of toxic substances at the time of the case, which also excludes the possibility of poisoning.
Ogata took a look at the mucosal bleeding of the upper and lower lip of the deceased, which was normal, and there was no punctate epidermal peeling off of the neck, and there were patchy hemorrhages on the skin, and the conjunctival hemorrhage of the eye proved that there was a strangulation process, and the second cause of death was ruled out.
Professional forensic doctors will not be preconceived like normal people at first sight. Heavy bleeding in the abdomen, also known as superficial wounds caused by sharp objects, hides the three major truths of death.
Death by suffocation, death by poisoning, and finally death by electric shock! Excluding the first two possibilities, only the last one remains.
Ogata stood up, came to the side, and gently lifted the deceased's palm with his hand, observing the tips of his five fingers. In the case of death by electric shock, the scald caused by the electric current flowing from the tip of the finger into the body will cause the finger to turn grayish-white
And the deceased's nails are kept neat and tidy, there are no broken parts, and the color is normal is a normal corpse, which also eliminates the third possibility.
Finally, the epifacial trauma test of the abdomen is also the most important part of the autopsy work.
Ogata's sense of smell was very keen, and he touched the wound on the deceased's abdomen with his white gloves, and there was no serious tearing around the bloody chest cavity, which meant that the murderer had stabbed him directly into the chest with a sharp object, rather than a faint blunt object that had just been cut in with force.
Because the wound was deep, I saw the intestines and internal organs in the chest at a glance
In addition to the smell of blood, Ogata also smelled the unique smell of the internal organs after they were broken, a bit like the smell of pork liver and duck blood sausage that we often eat before they were cooked.
"It's a deep thorn." Ogata's gloves gently tested the wounds, and the sound of the intestines squeezing in the wriggling made it easy to guess the distance caused by the sharp blade slicing into the body.
The dead are men! Ogata confirms this, because the power and angle are not deceiving, and it is even more unlikely to be suicidal.
Also, the murderer's modus operandi.
"Navel." Ogata looked at the abdomen that had been pierced by the blade, and the wound was just at the original navel.
According to the normal calculation method, the murderer's attack angle will be less than one meter six.
But in terms of strength and piercing, it is counterintuitive.
Obviously, the murderer deliberately lowered the height of the blade stabbed, because he was worried that this identity part would not be able to directly solve the life of the deceased, so he deliberately increased the force.
Ogata stood up, his eyes revealing a hint of confusion, and he quietly looked at the body of the deceased, if he deliberately chose to pierce it in a place like the navel
“o.618:1!”
(The blood flower is back, and the more exciting inferences are yet to come, so you guys vote a few more.) has been off the new book list, and now I can only fight the sci-fi sub-list, so everyone can help me go up. I wish you all a happy 11th Day, and have fun eating. )
