Chapter 121 Entomological Case Solving

"In order to cover up the difference between her complexion and normal people, the murderer probably used some cosmetics on Chikako Ikeda's face as a cover. I found some traces of makeup on the pores of her mouth and jaw."

Hearing Ogata's words, Suzuki Ayako recalled the Chikako Ikeda she saw in the morning, always felt something strange, and finally remembered that she seemed to have a layer of foundation on her face, and it was uneven.As women, she and Chikako Ikeda both know one thing. If you don't remove your makeup at night, it's easy to clog your pores and affect your skin's metabolism.

"And this method is to mislead Ms. Ayako to create a time difference in committing the crime, so that everyone mistakenly thinks that Chikako Ikeda's death time was delayed after 05:30."

"Going back to what I said at the beginning, if humans are nervous and excited, the pores of the scalp will shrink and expand. It will also reflect a phenomenon, that is, the eyes..."

"Eyes?" Everyone followed Ogata's voice and looked over, only to find that the head's eyes were tightly closed.

"We can see that the eyes of the dead are closed, but it violates a constant physiological law. When the eyes of human beings are closed, the tension and excitement will be reduced to the lowest point. So in contrast, the scalp The degree of pore shrinkage is obviously deviated, even contradictory."

"In the eyelids and eyelids, there is an obvious and strange rigor, which is caused by external force squeezing the skin. So the closed eyes are deliberately done by the murderer after killing Chikako Ikeda. The purpose is to implement the just now. The trick is to make her appear in a peaceful sleep state, so that no one will find out."

While Ogata was speaking, he placed the paper on which the maggots were riding on where everyone could see clearly.Everyone couldn't help avoiding their eyes, their faces were a little ugly, and their stomachs couldn't help but roll.Because during the entire dissection process, the most disgusting scene was when Ogata used tweezers to take out these wriggling creatures from the yellow-white liquid.

Sighing, it seems that it is very difficult for them to see in, so they can only talk.

"In the absence of the main body part, the only evidence that can prove the exact time of death is the maggots on my hand." Ogata deliberately increased the volume of his speech, because people are deliberately avoiding certain things. Sometimes, part of the hearing will be blocked.

"Don't underestimate them, because it involves a subject I will talk about next, forensic entomology! Perhaps in the Japanese forensic circle, this is an unfamiliar term, but during my study abroad, the United States has listed it as a It is a compulsory course for forensic medicine, although it is very unpopular, but it is especially practical when substantive evidence is scarce."

Hearing Ogata's words, some people looked back at those maggots and still felt disgusted, especially girls who resisted such things.So most of the forensic jobs are men.

Ogata sorted out his thoughts, and everyone's reactions would not affect his inference: "In simple terms, forensic entomology is the application of theories and techniques of insects and other natural sciences. We all know that whether it is a corpse or During the process of cooking meat, there will be some uninvited guests. And these uninvited guests will choose to eat, or stay in the food that is very fresh to them."

"Ordinary people think that maggots and flies can only grow on corpses, but in fact they are wrong. In forensic medical examination, the microorganisms that can be born on corpses include mosquitoes, midges, horseflies, flies, etc., and even we think it is very beautiful. Butterflies...."

Hearing this, some people listened in astonishment, thinking it was exaggerated and outrageous, but listening to Ogata's sequential words, they sounded resounding.

"The maggots in my hand were found in the periosteum layer of the brain of the deceased, Chikako Ikeda. They not only ate the brain tissue, but also kept moving in the corpse, and continued to reproduce, accelerating its collapse. So there is nothing Things that know better than they do, the changes formed inside this corpse."

"Therefore, the forensic doctor will examine the color, spots, and growth shape of these maggots based on forensic entomology, and analyze and judge the death time, place of death, cause of death, and other facts of the corpse. No matter what method the murderer uses to deceive The truth, the beings that inhabit the dead will tell the truth."

There is only one meaning for Ogata to tell everyone about forensic entomology, that is, what he said is not aimless, he fully respects science, and can stand scrutiny.Pave the way for persuasiveness and credibility, and indirectly attract their attention, so that the logical structure of the inference will not be affected by the nausea of ​​maggots.

Holding up the paper in his hand, a few maggots, either curled up or writhing, were restlessly lying on it. Ogata glanced at everyone, and found that everyone followed him.

"These maggots are invertebrates, the larvae of Diptera, or the young of flies. Their growth environment is very special. We can see a few I took out from the dead man's skull. The color is milky white, the body About two centimeters long."

Kadotani Hiroki has been recording, and following Ogata's words, he zoomed in on the camera lens, and after seeing the details of these maggots clearly, he felt disgusted and admired Ogata even more.

"The growth stages of maggots are divided into several types. Let's look at the color first. As the maggots evolve and grow, the protein in their bodies will gradually turn into spotted yellow, and this kind of maggots that remain crystal clear belong to the new stage. .”

"Their growth time stays at two to five hours. Excluding the time when the maggots appeared on the corpse is calculated, the time of this murder happened at night, not after 05:30 as Miss Ayako said... ...."

Ogata used maggots to make judgments, which made everyone feel fresh and surprised, and almost subverted the cognition of worms in their hearts.

Conan initially rejected the academic performance of forensic medicine, but gradually, after listening more, he realized that what Ogata said was all-encompassing, not just as simple as forensic medicine.

For a moment, Conan looked at his figure, and recalled a sentence that Ogata casually said while flipping through his textbook when he was free.

"Learning is useful regardless of whether it is good or bad."
