"I tried my best to keep restraint, but she still couldn't control her hands on me."

"My arm was scratched by her at that time."

"After that, I left Ritsuko Usui's room and went back to my room to rest."

Fei Yingli calmly narrated her experience:

"It was about 10 o'clock at night."

"On the way back, I also met Mr. Saku and Shinichi-kun."

"That's right." Both Lin Xinyi and Saku Hoshi nodded in approval.

But the dignified atmosphere did not ease at all.

Because Fei Yingli's self-report couldn't clear her suspicion at all.

She said that she just had some small friction with Ritsuko Usui.

Ritsuko Usui was still alive and well when she left the room.

But who can prove it?

If it can't be proved, just relying on the dander in the fingernails of the deceased is enough to charge Fei Yingli with murder.

"hateful…"

Mori Kogoro clenched his fists tightly.

Although Fei Yingli has been deliberately acting indifferent to him, how could he not see it:

Fei Yingli was charged with this inexplicable crime entirely because of him as the chief culprit.

If it wasn't for his drunken debauchery and flirting with other women, she would never have talked to Ritsuko Usui, let alone talk to her about tearing up her face.

"Eri..."

Mori Kogoro's mood is very complicated.

Mao Lilan also looked at his mother pitifully: "Mom..."

A family that had been separated for many years came together unknowingly.

"What are you worried about..."

Fei Yingli shook her head helplessly.

"Indeed, I have a motive to kill."

"The dead man still has flakes of my skin in his nails."

"I was also witnessed going to the room of the deceased before the incident."

"These so-called strong evidences are enough to deal with ordinary suspects."

"But, do you want to prove that I am a murderer and convict me in court?"

The corners of Feiyingli's mouth twitched slightly.

Her smile is full of her confidence as a lawyer:

"Then the evidence is far from complete."

"After all, they can only prove that I had a conflict with the deceased before she was alive, but there is no way to prove that I am the murderer."

"This..." Everyone was slightly taken aback.

Several lawyer colleagues present were secretly approving and nodding:

That's right, there is no doubt about it.

For powerful lawyers like them, as long as there is no surveillance scene to film the crime process, they have a way to find incompleteness in the police evidence chain.

Even if the evidence chain is complete, they can still find loopholes in places where there may be procedural violations such as police evidence collection and evidence preservation, thereby overturning the entire guilty charge.

In short, based on the evidence found now, do you want to send the "undefeated queen" of the judiciary to prison?

That is obviously impossible.

So Fei Yingli's self-confidence did not come out of thin air.

Don't say she didn't kill someone, even if she did...

The police have nothing to do with her.

"You may find my dandruff, hair, fingerprints, smell at the scene."

Lin Xinyi didn't even speak.

Fei Yingli told all the clues that the police might find:

"It's normal to be able to find it."

"Because I did come to this room, and I had conflicts with Ritsuko Usui."

This reason alone is enough to invalidate all the evidence the police could find at the scene.

In this way, it would be unimaginably difficult to prove that Fei Yingli was the murderer again.

Having said that...

But Mao Lilan was still faintly worried about her mother:

Even if the police didn't have enough evidence to prove that her mother was the murderer, her mother was still a scapegoat for causing such a big suspicion.

This may have a certain impact on Fei Yingli's reputation, life, and even career prospects.

"No, it's not enough to just be exonerated."

"We must find out the real culprit and clear my mother of suspicion."

Mao Lilan was determined to prove her innocence for her mother.

But for a while, she didn't have any ideas to break the situation.

So, she could only turn her eyes to Lin Xinyi for help:

"Mr. Lin..."

"I understand." Lin Xinyi nodded tacitly.

He thought for a while, then slowly walked up to Fei Yingli, and asked her:

"Aunt Concubine, can I see the wound on your wrist?"

"Yes." Fei Yingli put her hand in front of Lin Xinyi frankly.

Lin Xinyi observed carefully:

"It's starting to scab over."

"The wound forms a scab and is at the same level as the tissue..."

"This wound has been formed for at least 10 hours."

According to the morphological changes of the damaged part when the skin is peeled off and healed within a certain period of time, the forensic doctor can roughly infer the elapsed time of the wound.

As a general rule:

After forming a wound for 12 to 24 hours, a scab will form on the wound surface, which is at the same level as the tissue.

But because people's constitutions cannot be generalized, some people heal quickly, while others heal slowly.

Therefore, caution must be exercised when using this rule to infer the time of wound formation.

To leave a sufficient amount of error, it must not be accurate to the hour.

This time, Lin Xinyi left a gap of two hours.

After leaving enough error, he confidently deduced that Fei Yingli's wound was formed at least 10 hours ago.

And now it's 9am.

The wound was formed at least 10 hours ago, which means that Eri was scratched by Ritsuko Usei before 11 o'clock last night.

"Next, measure the anal temperature of the deceased."

Lin Xinyi took out the rectal thermometer from the inspection box.

This is a necessary item for the body table inspection.

The time of death can also be roughly estimated from the signs of corpses such as corpse spots and rigor, but it is generally not as accurate as the temperature of the corpse.

In the early stage of death, if the room temperature environment is suitable, the body temperature can generally predict the time of death to the nearest hour.

"The air conditioner is always on in the room, and the room temperature is a constant 23 degrees, similar to spring and autumn."

"In spring and autumn, during the first 10 hours after death, body temperature decreased by an average of 1 degree per hour for lean, moderately sized cadavers."

"Now the rectal temperature of the deceased is 28 degrees."

"37-28, it can be roughly inferred that the time of death of the deceased was 9 hours ago."

After inspection, Lin Xinyi quickly came to a conclusion:

"It's nine o'clock in the morning."

"That is to say, the deceased was killed at about 0 o'clock in the middle of the night."

Ritsuko Usui died at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

However, the damage pattern on Fei Yingli's wrist can prove that she was scratched by Ubing Ritsuko before 11 o'clock at the latest.

This time is not right.

And this proves that:

"For a long time after Aunt Concubine was scratched, Ritsuko Usui has not been killed."

"The flakes of her fingernails were not from her struggle when she was killed."

"Thus, these skin flakes can only prove that she had a physical conflict with Aunt Concubine before she was alive, but cannot prove that Aunt Concubine is the murderer."

Lin Xinyi used solid evidence to help Fei Yingli get rid of a certain degree of suspicion.

"Great."

Mollyland breathed a sigh of relief.
