Conan: I'm Not a Ghost

"Mr. Sakaki Makoto!"

Hattori Heiji inspected the body and said:

"There are scratches on the neck of the body!"

Sakaki took two steps forward, put on his gloves, and squatted down.

As Hattori Heiji said, there was a purple scratch on the upper throat of the corpse. The color was a little shallow. Semi-circular finger indentations could be seen on both sides of the neck. The skin was slightly peeled off. Judging from the position of the thumb,

The prisoner should use his left hand.

After noticing this, Sakaki asked for a pair of scissors, cut a small opening in the clothes on the abdomen of the corpse, and rolled them up.

A 4.5cm long vertical hole with ruptured subcutaneous tissue appeared in front of him, like the letter D, and there was no doubt that he had been injured by a sharp instrument.

but

Sakaki found that the shape and depth of the two ends of the strip wound were different.

One end is sharp, and the other end is slightly blunt, and the organs and tissues where blood coagulates can be vaguely seen.

At this moment, it had been more than 12 hours since Tsumori Reiko's death. There were a few purple-red corpse spots on the lower part of the body. Rigor mortis had reached its peak. The whole body was like a stiff piece of wood, which was difficult to break.

"The iris is cloudy, the pupil disappears, there are traces of salivation, and the lips are discolored."

Wiping off the lipstick on the corpse's lips, the color was extremely light, leaving a pale look.

"The skin is gray and completely cold"

Sakaki was mumbling something, and Miss Miyano took a notebook and wrote down what he said one by one.

The police autopsy report contains many points that are not detailed enough and there are not many places for reference.

"He is 172cm tall with bare feet, the false nails on his hands have fallen off, and a small amount of skin and blood tissue remains in the nail seams."

"Obvious trampling marks can be seen on the grass beneath the feet. There are no blood stains 1m away from the body. No murder weapon was found."

After careful consideration, Sakaki covered the wound and stood up:

"Typically, when people commit crimes, they hold the weapon with their main hand and assist with the other hand."

"There were no signs of dragging or moving around Tsumori Reiko's body. She should have known the prisoner."

"So say"

Henggou Police Department asked:

"Did an acquaintance commit the crime?"

"As long as the police investigate the hotel or hotel where Tsumori Reiko is staying and find her companions, can they successfully catch the murderer?"

"wrong!"

Hattori Heiji shook his head decisively:

"Who says acquaintances must be travel companions?"

"Reiko Tsumori's companion is indeed suspected, but we can't be sure that he is the culprit!"

"But would she, a young woman, go into the woods with a stranger?"

The confused Henggou Police Department asked again:

"If the prisoner committed the crime elsewhere, there must be traces on the ground and on the body."

"unless."

"The criminal first strangled Reiko Tsusumori to death, then moved her to the woods and used sharp instruments to fake the scene."

"The Henggou Police Department has really rich imagination."

Sakaki Makoto, who has extremely high emotional intelligence, retorted tactfully:

"Look at the stamp marks on the soles of the corpse's feet. The size and length are consistent with the corpse's shoes, indicating that they were left by the other party himself."

"Besides, don't you know life reactions and supernatural reactions?"

"Um."

Henggou Police Department nodded:

"have no idea."

"."

For a moment, Sakaki was speechless, but he did not dislike the honesty of the Henggou Police Department.

"Life response refers to the defensive response that occurs locally and throughout the body when violence acts on the living organism, including physical, chemical, biological and necessary substances for the body, such as oxygen, water, nutrients and other factors."

"There are no bruises on Tsumori Reiko's body, indicating that she was not beaten. However, there are signs of struggle such as skin tissue in the nails and stepping on her feet, which are reactions to life."

After a pause, Sakaki pointed to the throat of the corpse and added:

"Superlife reaction refers to the reaction of surviving tissue cells to external stimuli for a period of time after death."

"For example, within 10 minutes of beheading, you can still see movements of the eyeballs, lips, and mandibles of the head that are separated from the body. The trunk is spasming and the heart is beating, just like a snake that can still squirm after death."

It is worth mentioning that during the period of death, the smooth muscles of the bladder and rectum can still contract, causing urination, defecation and other conditions.

What some people say about ‘while it’s hot’ has a scientific basis.

"I see."

Henggou Police Department nodded:

"So this is where Reiko Tsumori died, right?"

"That's right."

Sakaki nodded and said seriously:

"The traces of salivation at the corner of the mouth prove that the prisoner strangled the deceased's throat and rode on her when he committed the crime. Hakuba, Brother Hattori, please recreate the scene at that time."

Kidd and Hattori Heiji looked at each other.

"Please."

"No, please."

"Please first"

"No, no, no, please go first."

"I have trouble with my neck."

Hattori Heiji: "."

In order not to damage the mask, the helpless Osaka Black Chicken had no choice but to sigh, lay down on the ground in despair, and then...

The 'White Horse Detective' sat up, grabbed Hattori Heiji's neck with his left hand and raised his right hand high to recreate the scene at that time.

With his eyes bulging, Hattori Heiji immediately started struggling.

Damn it

This guy is serious!

I don’t know if he was intending to retaliate, but Kidd used a lot of force. Hattori Heiji rolled his eyes when he pinched him. During the struggle, his legs began to step on the grass, trying to use his strength to escape, but

Somewhat in vain.

"That's enough."

Sakaki glanced at them and said something to stop them:

"It's just a show for Inspector Yokomizo, don't take it seriously."

"Oh"

Kid let go of his hand and hid behind Makoto Sakaki in a flash, not giving him any chance.

Glazing at him fiercely, Hattori Heiji decided to settle the score later:

"Inspector Yokomizo, you saw it too."

"The criminal should be a man, strong and right-handed."

"Could it be a woman?"

Inspector Yokomizo asked in confusion:

"For example, a companion of Reiko Tsumori."

Your question

Makoto Sakaki's mouth twitched.

It's on par with Takagi Wataru.

This question is easy to answer.

"Reiko Tsumori's net height is 172cm, which is not considered short in the world."

Sakaki Makoto said lightly:

"When people are in a dangerous and tense situation, adrenaline surges, transporting a large amount of glucose to the muscles, promoting muscle activity to cope with stress and danger, and can instantly give people a strong functional improvement and explosive power."

"Have you read novels?"

"Those protagonists who are vigorous after taking drugs can be understood as them taking a highly effective concentrated version of adrenaline."

"Even if Reiko Tsumori is a girl, if you want to fix her firmly in place, the strength required is not something that ordinary girls can burst out."

At this time, Conan took over the conversation:

"You're right!"

"The criminal must be a strong man!"

"And he's handsome!"

"What does it have to do with being handsome?"

Inspector Yokomizo was stunned.

"If the criminal wasn't handsome, would Reiko Tsumori follow him into the woods!"

". Makes sense."
