Coroner Coroner

"In the end, no traces were found, nothing unusual."

Yuan Shan and Ye talked excitedly about her thoughts on solving the problem:

"But there is no difference, it is the biggest difference."

"Without any trace, it is the most suspicious trace!"

"because…"

She looked at the lush and tall weeds in front of the grave:

"Because it's only 9 p.m. now."

"And the time when Miss Shimabukuro 'disappeared' from the public before, the only time that could be used to kill Sumi Ebihara was from 7:8 to [-]:[-] in the evening."

"Since then, the longest time has been 2 hours."

"If Ms. Shimabukuro killed Ebihara Sumi first in that short hour, and then took the photo of his death to the mountain to set up a timed parabolic mechanism, and then came here to pay homage to her mother..."

"Then she will definitely step on the grass in front of the grave."

"And leave traces of 'grass blades upside down' on the grass!"

If Junhui Shimabukuro came here to pay homage to her mother and put all the fruits in front of the grave, it would be impossible not to step on the weeds in front of the grave.

But the weeds in front of the grave stood upright, as if no one had stepped on them.

And it's impossible for no one to step on it here.

Because those fresh fruits are placed in front of the grave, someone must have been here recently.

So, the truth is:

"Someone has indeed been here, and these weeds have been trampled on."

"But they're all 'self-healing.'"

When Lin Xinyi was in Osaka last time, he taught Ms. Ye about grassland tracking.

One of the most important points is:

Grass blades can repair themselves and "stand up" again after being trampled down.

But this fix will take time.

From being trampled down to returning to the original state, it usually takes about a day.

Even during the day with sufficient light and fast growth, the shortest time is five or six hours.

"But from the 'time of committing the crime' of Ms. Shimabukuro and the 'time of murder' of Ebihara Sumi to the present, the longest time is no more than 2 hours."

"Two hours, still at night with cold weather and lack of light."

"The blades of grass just don't have time to recover."

"so--"

"There can only be one truth!"

After careful consideration, Yuan Shan and Ye finally expressed their conjecture:

"The time when Shimabukuro Junhui came here to leave photos of her death and pay respects to her mother was not during the hour when she 'disappeared' from 7:8 to [-]:[-] p.m. two hours ago."

"It was during today's day, or even earlier yesterday!"

Before 7:[-] p.m., Ebihara Sumi was still active in everyone's field of vision.

But her "death photo" was brought here by Shimabukuro Junhui during the day, and it was set up as a timed parabolic mechanism.

That can only explain one thing:

"Those death photos are fake!"

"Ebihara Sumi may not have died at all."

Speaking of this, Yuan Shan and Ye's voices were excited and nervous.

There was basically no problem with her reasoning process, but she still lacked some confidence in the shocking conclusion she finally came to.

So, Ms. Ye couldn't help asking the famous detective in front of her:

"Pingji, what do you think?"

Hattori Heiji: "I..."

After confirming the relationship, the first thing my girlfriend talked about with me turned out to be a murder case.

What do I think?

I think it's better to talk about it later?

Let's talk about the confession just now...

Hattori Heiji faltered about what to say.

But his long-planned sincere speech was interrupted by a burst of laughter:

"Haha, with Miss Ye."

"Your reasoning is entirely correct: "

"Those photos of death are indeed fake!"

Lin Xinyi looked at the students who made progress with satisfaction, and praised:

"Careful verification, bold assumptions, and Miss Ye, you solved this problem well!"

"En." Yuan Shan and Ye Xin nodded happily.

She completely ignored the resentful and helpless look in her boyfriend's eyes.

She just continued to ask with awareness:

"Mr. Lin, you said my reasoning was 'perfectly correct'."

"'Completely' is a word with absolute certainty, but it is rare for you to use it."

"And Mr. Lin, you actually said that."

"That means..."

Yuan Shan and Ye asked with some expectation:

"Have you found any proof that those photos of the death are fake?"

"Huh?" Hattori Heiji was slightly taken aback.

He suddenly recalled the suspicious points in the photo of the death that Lin Xinyi mentioned but did not point out when he was at Kadowaki Saori's house in the afternoon.

"Could it be that the photo itself contains traces of forgery?"

"And it's not just Ebihara Sumi."

"Since Saori Kadowaki, the photos are fake?"

"Maybe Miss Kadowaki Saori is not dead?"

This is just great.

Hattori Heiji also forgot about falling in love.

He showed more curiosity than Miss Ye, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Lin Xinyi, expecting to get a definite answer from the other party.

And Lin Xin nodded, affirming:

"That's right, starting with that photo of Kadowaki Saori, all the death photos are fake."

As he spoke, he took out the death photo carefully wrapped in a transparent evidence bag from his arms.

Then put it under the flashlight and explained to everyone present:

"First of all, Kadowaki Sasa in the photo is in a sitting posture, with her mouth tightly closed, her body limp, and there is still uncoagulated blood under her body."

"We previously speculated that the photo was taken within 15 minutes of the deceased's death based on the pool of blood that showed no signs of coagulation."

"And if you look closely, you will find that the dotted blood on the leg of the chair does not show obvious signs of coagulation."

"The smaller the blood volume, the faster the blood coagulation. If you are bold, it is speculated that the death time can even be shortened to less than 5 minutes."

"Then, doubts come out..."

Lin Xinyi paused with some sighs:

"Some experiences cannot be seen just by reading a book."

"That lady witch may have taught herself some forensic knowledge."

"But she is only a witch after all, not a forensic doctor, and has no chance to touch the real corpse."

"As for Heiji, and Ms. Ye, you have all died before... Ahem, you have seen countless corpses."

He took this photo as an examination question again, and asked persuasively:

"Think about it carefully:"

"If a corpse that has just died a few minutes ago is placed in a sitting position, what should the posture of the corpse look like?"

"This…"

Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha fell into deep thought at the same time.

Using their extensive practical training experience, they quickly came up with the answer:

"After death, the nervous system stops functioning and dies naturally."

"Muscles all over the body will lose neural control and remain extremely relaxed for a period of time before rigor rigor occurs."

A person who has just passed away is like a cat paralyzed by sleep, limp like a puddle of liquid.

So when a fresh corpse is placed in a sitting position, the muscles all over its body will naturally stretch downward under the action of gravity.

"Hands and feet will hang down naturally."

"The lower jaw will also naturally droop, and the mouth will open slightly."

Hattori Heiji and Ms. Kazuba analyzed and analyzed, and they analyzed the problem:

"The problem is the mouth!"
