Nineteenth Century Medical Guide

Chapter 36 35. Prom Aftermath

Three people died at the scene, and the police must file a case. Mick did not get involved too much, and Werther became the leader of the case investigation.Therefore, Carvey is not interested in all kinds of scattered news brought by 303. They are just trivial matters. What he is really interested in is Witte's investigation results.

Judging from the on-site investigation in the morning and Muzier's judgment after the autopsy after going to the hospital in the afternoon, the 102 couples were obviously poisoned to death. In typical mechanical asphyxia.

Werther is very experienced in homicide cases. At a glance, he can see that Xia Deng was strangled to death from behind. It is not an ordinary rope strangulation, but a pair of strong forearms.

Because of this, the suspects of 303 and Carvey can be basically ruled out.

303 is old and frail, and Carvey is also very thin. The two of them can't compete with Xia Deng, who is two times stronger than them.Even in a simple 1-on-2 fight, without the help of weapons, Shadden would not be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, if you strangle your neck with your upper limbs, you will definitely be counterattacked by the opponent. Even through the clothes, you can still leave some scratch marks on your arms.But let alone their arms, the two of them were extremely clean from top to bottom, and there was no sign of a fierce struggle at all.

In addition, from the motive, the two have no reason to kill.

Xia Deng came to Vienna to fight for the right of inheritance, but he was only a distant relative of Andre, and he didn't have a will in his hand.But here I heard that Kawei has a lawyer to prove that there should be a complete and legally compliant will, and the right of inheritance is not a problem.

Witt will definitely continue to check if he doesn’t see the will, and the reply to him at that time should be: After the appraisal, there is no problem with the will, and Carvey is the sole heir of Andre’s property after his death.

After 303 added fuel and vinegar to the whole matter, another process appeared before Werther's eyes.

When the couple in room 102 and Xia Deng were fighting for the right to inherit the inheritance, Kawei stepped in. The three of them held a grudge, and after the defeat, they huddled together to keep warm and thought about countermeasures.

But during the discussion, Xia Deng found that he would lose without a will. In order to get rid of his competitors, he secretly poisoned the husband and wife, and then blamed Carvey.The husband and wife also felt that Xia Deng's existence was in the way, and after realizing the abnormality, they planned to act first and jointly strangled Xia Deng to death.

From the beginning to the end, Werther missed the lawyer, and Carvey's transfer of the body also obscured the time of death to a certain extent.

In Werther's perception, the plot where the three kill each other is indeed a bit of a coincidence, but it can be regarded as a reasonable explanation in the absence of evidence.Even if I ask Kawei for questioning later, it is mainly to understand what happened, and it is difficult to suspect him.

As for exchanging news with Mick, it will be more troublesome.

Before Carvey, 303 was one of the few people in Building 73 who could read and write, so he was in charge of the "job" of sending and receiving emails for everyone.In addition, he is the only one in the building who stays in the building all day, so the burden of sending and receiving emails every day falls on him.

每天邮局的专用运输马车会在早上7:25分和下午16:22分经过贝辛格大街，303就会站在门口发送接收邮件。

"If there's nothing special there's no need to send an email, just put it on the record."

"What is a special thing?"

"The list of tenants has changed, the trajectory of life has changed, strangers have never seen before, and some activities that show signs of illegality have been discovered." 303 said, "That's about it in normal times, and sometimes drastic emotional changes also require report."

"Just leave the records and send the mail to the Archives Bureau?"

"Ah."

303 turned to today's record again: "For example, Ms. Milika in Room 202 usually leaves at [-]:[-] am and returns home at [-]:[-] pm. But today she didn't come home on time, which is considered a special case. I guess she found a new job. Working overtime to make up for the working hours of the day.

Mr. Gnard in Room 101 has not returned yet, but considering last night he complained that he was going to help a rich man's mansion today, it is considered normal. "

"So these can not be reported?"

"In principle, you don't need to report it." 303 hesitated for a moment, "But you have seen how ruthless Mr. Meek is. I personally prefer to report at least once every three days."

"Then report it."

"Row."

After speaking, 303 took out a cipher book [2]: "If it's an ordinary report, you only need to briefly state the content. If you encounter special circumstances, you need to use this."

"Not at all."

"No way, this is what Mr. Meek asked for."

"Can't you use Latin?"

"You think he knows Latin?"

The cipherbook is just a simple table of numbers, the principle is not difficult, but it takes a lot of energy when it comes to using it.In order to reduce the workload, Kawei can only reduce the content of the report and try to be as streamlined as possible.

But even so, after finishing the text of the day's briefing, he still felt dizzy.

After handing over to 303, Kawei rested for half an hour, and waited for his eyes to recover a little before starting to deal with those rabbit heads.The tools he had at hand were limited, only the pliers and scissors he used on a daily basis. Fortunately, he wasn't doing fine dissection, so it didn't matter if his movements were rough.

What Alphonse wanted was rabbit meat, and he was very casual when handling the rabbit head, and the cutting position was distributed between the 2nd and 5th cervical vertebrae.

In order to remove the brain tissue, Carvey first needs to trim the short end properly, exposing the foramen magnum.Then the skin and most of the muscles of the head were peeled off, and ordinary pointed scissors were used to insert through the foramen magnum, and the blade was carefully cut close to the eye sockets near the bone. 【3】

After the incisions on both sides are made, the bone at the foramen magnum is clamped with hands, and the skull is gently lifted upwards to reveal the complete brain tissue. 【4】

Generally, it is not difficult to reach this step, and the next step is the troublesome place.

Rabbit brains are smaller than other animals, and the position of the pituitary gland is also very awkward, sandwiched between the bones of the skull base. When peeling off, you need to pay attention to the surrounding bone fragments.During the dissection, Carvey also tried several methods, and finally chose to remove all the brain tissue【5】, and then slowly deal with the rest.

The rabbit pituitary gland is very small, and the carefully cut posterior lobe needs to be dehydrated overnight on dry paper, and it needs to be dried all day before it can be used.

The dried pituitary gland needs to be ground for a long time to make a fine dry powder.Then put it into the test tube according to the ratio of 15ml of water per gram of dry powder, slowly leaching for 40 minutes, then manually centrifuge to wait for complete precipitation.

Collect the clear liquid, immerse the remaining residue in clean water according to the previous ratio, and then leaching and extracting.

The conventional method needs to be extracted four times repeatedly, and the equipment at hand is limited, and Kawei cannot guarantee the extraction rate, so he simply increased the number of times to six times, and finally the most basic pituitary posterior lobe extract can be obtained.

But these are later stories.

At five o'clock the next morning, Carvey got up and spread the dehydrated rabbit pituitary gland on the paper and let it dry naturally.

After leaving the house at 05:30, he was not in a hurry to go to the hospital. Instead, he took the opposite direction and went to the forestry bureau where he worked before, where he found several old friends.After explaining the current situation with them, I explained my purpose of coming, and finally after a while of haggling, I decided to buy voles at a price of 10 Heller each.

My friend was very interested in his recent experience, thinking that he had found some kind of business avenue, so he gave up the job of cutting trees.Carvey could only blame Alphonse, saying that an unknown French chef was in need of some voles to try, and escaped further questioning.

After making preparations, Carvey finally got on the stagecoach and returned to the hospital.

His original plan was to finish his work early so that he could go home early in the afternoon and continue to work on oxytocin.Unexpectedly, I ran into Ignatz as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the hospital. Apart from secretly marveling at the evening dress on the other party's body, Carvey still couldn't help asking: "Why is it so early, teacher."

"Early?" Ignatz looked very tired, turned over the pocket watch on his waist, and said, "It's really early."

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Carvey immediately thought of the quarrel between the husband and wife yesterday and the dance to be attended that night, and various possible situations kept jumping into his mind.His identity was far from enough to discuss private matters with the other party, so he didn't dare to ask further questions, so he had to walk quickly back to the third ward behind him.

Ignatz walked quickly, without his usual high-spiritedness, and he didn't seem to come to work, because he didn't go to the office to change clothes, but plunged into the dissecting room.After staying inside for about ten minutes, he opened the door abruptly, and hurried out with his surgical toolbox.

"Where's Hills?"

"Dr. Hills has an anatomy class in the medical school in the morning, so he probably won't come to the hospital in the morning."

"Where's Herm?"

Carvey briefly explained the work schedule of the two doctors this morning: "Dr. Herman has a liposarcoma resection in the morning, but the time is set at 9 o'clock. According to his usual time, it is estimated that he will arrive in about half an hour. Hospital."

Ignatz was very anxious. Looking around the surgical ward, he couldn't bear him to continue picking people: "Forget it, you come with me!"

"Go? Where are you going?" Carvey put down the medical records in his hand. Although he was still asking questions, his body followed.

"Central City, Whitegreen Street, you will know when you go there."

Maybe it was because Kavi's attention was focused on Ignatz when he entered the hospital just now, so he didn't take a closer look at the carriage he was riding in.

After leaving the gate of the courtyard, I realized that the carriage had been parked on the side of the street.It is also very different from ordinary rental carriages. The body is doubled in size, the number of horses has also increased from 2 to 4, and the decorations on the body and horses are also much more luxurious.

Very typical private carriage configuration of nobles, a symbol of personal status, the price of renting one alone is enough to rent a good suite apartment in the central city.

It did happen at the ball, but it had nothing to do with the quarrel between the Ignatzes.In a place full of nobles, they would not spoil the image of the two families by bragging about the little things they got along with.

Not long after getting in the car, Ignatz, who had been silent all this time, finally said, "Relax, and get ready for surgery anytime you get there."

Carvey knew that things were not simple, so he just nodded and still didn't say much.

"If I'm not wrong, the problem must be those French oysters at the dinner party!" Ignatz squeezed the suitcase tightly, "The whole body is red and swollen. I hope I don't need these!"
