Chapter Forty-Three: The Cloudy Institute
Institute for Unnatural Deaths
The director, Yasuo Kamikura, had just hung up the phone, and the police department put forward their opinion on the leak of the case, which coincided with his own thoughts.
There is a leaker in the research institute, and this case has already attracted the attention of the police department, and is preparing for a secret investigation, but it was ruined by Riichi Shishido.
Mikoto Mitsumi and Nakado are examining Miss Tachibana's body in the autopsy room, and the two have been unable to determine the true cause of her death.
The deceased was found in a suitcase with no signs of decomposition, so they initially judged the time of death to be within 48 hours.
Because the food in the deceased's stomach was abnormally rotten, they put the cause of death on poisoning, but so far, not only have they gained nothing, but they have also been surrounded by reporters outside.
Zhongtang Department has been sitting on the chair, the scene of his girlfriend being killed keeps coming to mind, as a forensic doctor, but he can't find out the reason why she was killed, and even because of his own relationship, the forensic examination has been invalidated, everything is like a sharp sword constantly piercing his scarred heart.
Who the hell is it?
Zhongtang's eyes were red, his breathing became heavy, an irritable mood rose from his heart, and the idea of killing kept appearing, and he must finish off this sinner with his own hands.
Mochizuki was following Officer Twilight and his party to the research institute at this time, and the forensic identification report had not been followed, and the police had no other clues, so they could only check here.
And because of the peculiarity of this incident, Twilight Thirteen brought Mochizuki with him before the mission.
The most knowledgeable about the case in the Unnatural Death Research Institute should be the Nakado Department, as the victim's family, and secretly tracking down the truth all year round, maybe there is information that no one else has noticed.
"No poison was found in the deceased's body, but there was a large amount of botulinum toxin in her stomach, and the cause of death is still under investigation."
Mikoto Mitsumi, as the inspector of this time, is reporting to Officer Twilight, while Mochizuki is staring at the Nakado Department.
I hadn't seen each other for a day, and I always felt that something was wrong with this person, as if it was a bit similar to a person she had seen before, but she really couldn't remember it for a while.
Miss Tachibana Celery's body has been sent to the body freezer, and Twilight Eleven secretly signals to Mochizuki to see if the dead man's soul is still there.
Mochizuki nodded and followed the police officer to the place where the body was stored.
"How can there be no smell?"
Mochizuki was a little surprised, two days had passed since the deceased was found, and several more days had passed since he was taken to the research institute, even if he was put in the body freezer, there should have been some slight decomposition, but this corpse looked like it had just died.
As a police officer who graduated from a medical major, Mochizuki still has this bit of common sense, and there is something wrong with this corpse, as if it has been embalmed.
The middle hall ran over from his seat, pushed away several people from the police station, and checked the body with Mikoto Mitsumi.
It is true that no decomposition occurred, and they have been investigating the cause of death of the deceased, ignoring the most obvious features on the corpse.
"How?"
Twilight Eleven asked in a low voice, he was really at a loss now, and there was a certain reason why the case had developed into the way it was.
Mochizuki shook his head regretfully, the corpse had no other useful information except for the decomposition phenomenon, and the ghost disappeared without a trace.
"Could it be formalin?"
After Mikoto Mitsumi examined the body roughly, she opened her mouth with some hesitation, formalin itself is highly poisonous, as long as the prisoner injects a low concentration of formalin into the deceased's body, they will not pay too much attention to the autopsy, so that the cause of death and the time of death of the deceased are hidden.
"The police once found a dead ant at the scene of Miss Orange Celery's death, and the cause of death was formic acid, so they didn't take it to heart, and now they think that it should be caused by formalin solution, and the deceased has been dead for at least several months."
Mikoto Mitsumi retrieves the results of the ant's death from a pile of test reports and hands them over to Twilight Eleven.
"So, botulinum toxin is not the cause of the death of the deceased, formalin is, and botulinum toxin multiplies after the death of the deceased."
Zhongtang was excited, the stomach of the deceased was a natural oxygen-free environment, which just gave birth to those bacteria.
Mochizuki took the appraisal report and flipped through it, if it was because of formalin, the time of the deceased's death was wrong, then she was thrown there because the murderer deliberately provoked them.
"Ahem"
Twilight Eleven really didn't want to interrupt their academic exchange, but he was pressed for time, and he just wanted to know about the killer now.
"Officer Twilight, what is the place where the deceased was found, and does anyone usually go there?"
Mochizuki asked in a low voice as he walked over to Twilight Thirteen.
"It used to be a tavern, but no one has run it for a long time."
"So it's an empty room, and anyone can get in."
Twilight Thirteen nodded, yes, if it hadn't been for the fire, I don't know when it would have been discovered.
"What is this?"
Miheko Sato picked up a few pictures on a table, all of which were manuscripts, but they didn't seem to match the people here.
Pink hippos?
"Where did you find these things?"
Nakado's face changed greatly, this is the work that Xixizi said on the phone before she died, after her death, the police did not find these things, these things are very likely to be taken by the murderer, and now appearing here means that the murderer has appeared.
"On the table, where else could it be?"
Miheko Sato pointed to the desk in the corner, she had been checking nearby, and inadvertently saw these things, originally thought they were the work of the staff of the institute, but looking at other things, it was obviously not like this.
"This is the seat of one of your staff, there seems to be something interesting on the table, don't you want to see it?"
Mochizuki walked over and opened the file bag on the table, which contained information about several deceased, including various ways to die, and the information was so complete that the person who prepared this information seemed to be watching next to the murderer.
"Rokuro Kube, how do you have these things?"
Nakado swooped over and grabbed Kube Rokuro by the collar, and Mochizuki handed over the information to Twilight Thirteen, who had no information about these deaths, and should have been treated as a suicide.
"This was given to me by Mr. Shishido, and he just wanted to know who the murderer in this case was, so he would investigate these things."
Kube Rokuro looked at the Nakado Department with some guilt, he also thought about telling the people at the institute, but his identity did not allow him to do so.
Mochizuki and Twilight Thirteen are not interested in the internal affairs of the institute, and they want to know who the murderer is.
Riichi Shishido has done so much, and even put the evidence in the hands of the police, so he must know who the murderer is, but what is the purpose of his doing this?
