"And look at the autopsy report. In addition to a fatal stab wound on the waist and back, Mr. Oki also has 'multiple injuries' on the head and face, as well as 'hollow subcutaneous hemorrhage'."

Hollow subcutaneous hemorrhage is generally formed by blows with light sticks such as wooden sticks and bamboo, and often occurs in areas rich in soft tissues such as the buttocks and back.

Therefore, if anyone is lucky enough to meet a parent who has a hot temper and is good at using belts and sticks when he was young, he can intuitively understand what "hollow subcutaneous hemorrhage" is.

When the wooden stick falls on the victim at high speed, the center part of the skin in contact with the wooden stick quickly presses down vertically, and the pulling force generated will instantly tear the blood vessels on both sides of the center of the blow, that is, the two sides of the stick.

As a result, there will be peculiar strip-shaped injuries of "white blood loss in the middle" and "redness of bleeding on both sides".

This hollow subcutaneous hemorrhage is a typical characteristic of club wounds.

"The deceased had hollow subcutaneous hemorrhage on the head, plus multiple soft tissue injuries on the head and face."

"It is enough to prove that during the struggle after Councilor Oki was injured by a knife, the murderer used blunt instruments such as sticks to hit Councilor Oki on the head repeatedly, suppressing the other party's resistance."

"Soon, Senator Oki fell into a near-death state due to excessive blood loss, completely lost the power of resistance, and fell to the ground forever"

Lin Xinyi gave a firm conclusion.

But Jiang Gu Ling frowned quietly.

He thought about it for a while, and finally asked with some doubts:

"Mr. Lin, how are you sure:"

"This fight happened after the deceased was stabbed?"

"A man was stabbed in the chest from the back with a knife, and was seriously injured and still had the strength to fight the murderer."

"After fighting with the murderer, he was unfortunately stabbed..."

"Comparing these two statements, the latter is obviously more credible, right?"

Although Representative Oki is indeed physically strong, he is not Kyogoku Shinichi or Hayashi Shinichi after all, and he is not strong enough to be inhuman.

So from Jianggu Zero, from the perspective of normal people to analyze...

He should have fought with the murderer first, and then got the fatal knife.

"No." Lin Xinyi shook his head: "I have evidence to prove that Senator Damu was fatally stabbed first, and then reluctantly fought with the other party."

"First, Senator Oki's body is frontal, and there are almost no resistance injuries caused by stabbing."

"Officer Jianggu, think about it:"

"If you are a murderer, you go to kill with two weapons, a stick and a dagger."

"When the target fights with you, will you choose to use a stick or a short knife?"

"This..." Jiang Gu Ling quickly realized:

Indeed, if you want to fight people in close quarters, it must be easier to use a short knife.

On the other hand, Mr. Oki's body was not wounded with sticks or stabbed with a knife on the front of his body.

The only knife wound on his body was the fatal knife in the back.

This shows that the murderer didn't use a knife at all when he was struggling with Senator Oki.

Why did the murderer abandon the knife and choose to use a wooden stick?

"Because when he was fighting the dead, the knife was no longer in his hand."

"At that time, the knife was still stuck in Mr. Oki's body."

Lin Xinyi gave a surprising answer.

Before Jiang Gu Ling asked in surprise, he continued to explain:

"It may be because Councilor Oki struggled too much when the knife was stabbed into his body, which caught the murderer off guard and didn't hold the knife handle."

"It may also be because the murderer himself was a little flustered at the time, so he didn't hold the knife firmly."

"In short, after the knife was stabbed into Senator Oki's body, it has been stuck in him."

"It wasn't until he completely lost his ability to resist that he was pulled out by the murderer."

"And Mr. Oki still had the strength to fight back after being hit by the knife. A large part of the reason is that the knife remained in his body and did not pull it out, which did not make the amount of bleeding worse."

Lin Xinyi first made a methodical reasoning analysis.

Immediately afterwards, he produced solid evidence:

"Officer Jianggu, look at this close-up of the stab wound on the back of the deceased:"

"'There are fishtail-like drag marks at the corner of the knife', do you see it?"

The fishtail-shaped dragging knife mark at the corner of the knife is the cutting wound caused by the friction between the knife edge and the side of the wound when the murderer pulled out the stabbing weapon.

Following Lin Xinyi's instructions, Jiang Gu Ling carefully observed the bloody photo...

Nothing could be seen.

"It's not my profession."

Officer Jianggu shrugged frankly:

"Mr. Lin, it's up to you to explain."

"Yeah." Lin Xinyi pointed to the knife marks on the photo, to be precise, it was the tiny flap of the wound section:

"The skin tissue of these flaps still had a hyperemia reaction, but it was extremely weak."

Congestive reaction is a kind of life reaction.

A live response means the victim was alive when the wound was formed.

Compared with normal living people, the hyperemia response of the dead man's knife-marked cross-section skin flap is extremely weak.

this means…

"This is a near-death injury."

"When this dragging knife mark was formed, that is, when the murderer drew the knife, the deceased was already on the verge of death."

"At this time, he lost too much blood in his body, his blood pressure dropped sharply, and the hyperemia reaction of the wound was naturally extremely weak."

Lin Xinyi paused slightly, emphatically emphasizing:

"Judging from the condition of Mr. Oki's injury, from the time he was stabbed in the back to his vital signs regressing, he entered a near-death period."

"It will take at least 1 or 2 minutes."

"That is to say, when the murderer drew the knife, the knife had already been inserted into Representative Oki's body for more than a minute."

"Combined with the murderer's strange behavior of using sticks but not knives in the fight, I can basically conclude:"

"Representative Oki was stabbed in the back first, and then started a fight with the murderer."

"I see…"

Jiang Gu Ling couldn't help admiring it:

The murderer first entered the scene peacefully as an acquaintance, and attacked Councilor Oki from behind with a knife, but accidentally let the handle of the knife drop and left the knife on Councilor Oki.

Councilor Oki struggled with the murderer with serious injuries, but was hit on the head several times by the murderer with a wooden stick, and finally lost all resistance and fell to the ground and died.

Lin Xinyi only took a few glances at the autopsy report before recreating the whole process of the case in such detail.

This…

This…

"This doesn't seem to be of much help to our investigation?"

Admiration is admiration, admiration is admiration, but Jiang Guling's mind is not distracted by Lin Xinyi's long speech at all.

He still remembers why he came to ask for help:

"Knowing this, can you help us determine that Mr. Yuan Jiaming's death has nothing to do with the murderer in the first case?"

"of course can."

Lin Xinyi smiled calmly:

"Because these clues can help us find the murderer of the first case."

"As long as you know who the murderer is, you can further understand whether Yuan Jiaming killed him."

Chapter 436 The Inconspicuous Weapon

"You want to use these clues to find the murderer?"

Jiang Guling frowned slightly, and soon realized what:

Lin Xinyi has always been cautious in speaking, and will not aim at nothing.

Since he speaks so confidently, that means...

"Mr. Lin, do you already know who the murderer is?"

"Well, among the guests staying in the hotel that day, one person is the most suspected."

Lin Xinyi is always cautious in his choice of words.

But when he said the murderer's name, his tone was still full of confidence:

"The number one suspect in killing Mr. Oki is that old ancient painter, Ru Yuefengshui."

"Oh?" Officer Jiang Gu was curious:

How did Lin Xinyi locate the suspect based on the previous clues?

"It's simple."

Lin Xinyi revealed the answer:

"Chairman Oki was seriously injured by the knife attack, but he was still able to wrestle with the murderer for several minutes."

"What does this mean?"

"It shows that Senator Oki is physically strong and tenacious in life."

"But from another perspective, it also shows that the murderer is weak and has low physical fitness."
