Some people seem to be unwilling to let medical things dominate.
"I don't want to embarrass you," he said unhappily, "but I am asking whether the cause of death was the wound on the throat, or whether there were other possibilities. Could the deceased have been killed by other means, and then killed His throat was cut, creating the illusion of suicide by cutting his throat."
"Oh, I see. I can say this. There is no doubt that the cutting of the throat was the direct cause of death. The blood in the body was completely drained. To be honest, I have never seen any body with such complete blood loss. Yes. There is a little blood coagulation in the heart, but very little. It is normal for such a large wound. If the person had died before the wound was caused, there would not be so much blood loss, or even No blood loss.¡±
"That makes sense. It's important to make this clear. You said cutting the throat was the direct cause of death. What do you mean?"
"I mean, there is another possibility that the deceased may have taken poison in advance. But it is unusual to commit suicide by such a double insurance method. The fact also shows that his internal organs did not show any signs of having been poisoned. If you want, I can do an analysis of his internal organs."
"Thank you, maybe this possibility still exists. I wonder, is it possible that he was anesthetized by someone else first, and then his throat was cut?"
"Of course it's possible. Maybe the murderer made him take sleeping pills before the crime, which would make it easier to kill."
At this time, Detective Gu Pengfei stood up.
"Doctor, based on what Zhiqiu said, what do you think of the time of death?"
"I can judge that the time of death was a few minutes before the body was found. It would not be earlier than two o'clock."
"If everything goes as you said, will he die quickly after his throat is cut?"
"Death will occur immediately. Due to the spasm and contraction of the muscles, the heart and arteries may supply blood for a few seconds, but it should be said that the moment the large blood vessels are cut, the person dies."
"So we can judge that the wound was not caused earlier than two o'clock?"
"Exactly, two o'clock is already the limit. I myself tend to postpone the time of death a little longer."
"Thank you. Just one last question. As you've heard, a razor was found next to the body. Sheriff, can you show him the razor? Doctor, it's your turn. , does it look like the wound was caused by this instrument?"
¡°This, or a razor similar to this, would be an ideal tool for that kind of thing.¡±
"In your opinion, would it take a lot of effort to cut the throat with this razor or a similar instrument?"
"A certain amount of strength is required. As for very large strength, it is not needed. How much strength is required depends on the situation."
"Can you explain what this means?"
"If it is a committed suicide, an ordinary person, even a weak person, can cause such wounds. If it is a murder, the amount of effort it takes depends on whether the victim can defend himself."
¡°Did you find other signs of violence on the body?¡±
"No."
¡°There are no signs of strangulation or beating?¡±
"No. There is nothing noteworthy except for the marks of being washed away by the water and the complete loss of color of the body. I attributed the loss of color to the fact that there was very little blood in the body and it was not able to maintain the same posture all the time. Instead, he washed down from the rocks shortly after his death and kept rolling in the water."
"Judging from the condition of the body, do you think it was suicide or homicide?"
"Taking all the circumstances into consideration, it seems to me that suicide is more likely. The only thing that doesn't look like suicide is that there are no superficial cuts on the body. The throat was successfully cut on the first try. Cutting, which is very rare for suicide, but not completely impossible.¡±
"Thank you."
Next is Guo Jiaying. Regarding the password letter, she confirmed the landlord's statement. This naturally brings things to the relationship between Guo Jiaying and Link. From here, everyone can understand that the relationship between them has always been strict and appropriate; when Guo Jiaying ended this friendship, Link was very depressed; and Link was definitely not a suicidal person; in addition, Link On the one hand, if he did anything rash because of Guo Jiaying, she would be very sad; Guo Jiaying had never heard of Anina, but of course, in the sadness of the friendship dying, wouldn't Link do anything ridiculous? Things are unknownAlso, Guo Jiaying didn't pay much attention to Link afterwards, and she didn't know why someone would think that such a terrible thing had something to do with her. Regarding those letters, Guo Jiaying had previously believed that Link was being blackmailed, but there was no evidence to prove this.
Now, it is obvious that Pan Xiaowen is next. Wearing a widow's mourning dress, she angrily protested that Link's suicide could not be because of Guo Jiaying, and even said that it was impossible for him to commit suicide for any reason. She knows better than anyone else that Link is loyal only to her. She admitted that she could not explain the portrait, signed "Annina," but passionately asserted that Link was happy until his last day. She last saw him on Wednesday night and planned to see him in the garden on Thursday morning. But he didn't go, and he must have been lured to death by someone at that time. He often said he was afraid of conspiracies, so she thought the police should go after Russian agents.
This volcanic eruption of words had a certain effect. Someone stood up and asked if the police had begun searching for any suspicious foreigners who lived or hung around nearby. As far as he knew, the hotel where Link worked employed a Frenchman as a professional dance partner, there were many foreigners in the garden symphony orchestra, and the deceased was also a foreigner.
The one who came up later was Lao Bai. He admitted that at about two o'clock on the day of the incident, he indeed drove his boat in the Modaojiao Forest area, but insisted that it was in deep water and he saw nothing before Zhiqiu arrived. He didn't look far away at that time, he was busy with his own things. When asked what it was, he kept silent, but always insisted that he knew nothing. His grandson (who has now returned from overseas) simply affirmed his testimony, but added a detail, saying that he took a telescope and looked in the direction of the beach at 1:45 and saw someone on the beach. On the flat iron, one is either sitting or lying down, but one does not know whether one is alive or dead.
The last one was Li Feng. He told the story about the razor, the wording was almost exactly the same as what he told Xia Xiang and the police. Everyone saw the note handed over by Gu Pengfei, waited for Li Feng to finish what he had to say, and then asked: "The incident you mentioned happened at midnight on Tuesday, June 16th?"
"It was just after midnight. I just heard the bell ringing shortly before the man came over."
"What was the tide like at that time?"
Li Feng hesitated for the first time. He stared at everyone, as if he suspected it was a trap, licked his lips nervously, and then replied: "I don't know anything about tides. I'm not from this area."
"But you said that you mentioned the sound of sea water lapping against the walls of the Brilliant Hotel. Does that mean that the tide should be full?"
"I think so."
"Would you be surprised if I told you that at midnight on June 16th, the tide was actually at its lowest point?"
¡°Maybe I sat there longer than I thought.¡±
"Did you sit there for six hours?"
no answer.
"If I tell you that except at the peak of the spring tide, the sea water will never reach the height of the wall of the Brilliant Hotel, and even on that special day, this scene will only happen at six o'clock in the evening. This will Does it surprise you?"
"I can only say that I must have made a mistake. It may be a morbid hallucination, but that's okay."
"You still insist that your meeting with Link took place at midnight?"
"Yes, I'm absolutely sure."
Everyone summarized the evidence and expressed their opinions without any pretense. Some people believed that the deceased ended his own life. (Pan Xiaowen sounded angry and could not protest coherently.) As for why he did this, this is not a question that everyone should think about. There are many possible motives. You must also remember that the deceased was Russian by blood, so he must be easily excited and easily controlled by sadness and despair. We already have clear evidence of how the razor got into Link's hands, and no one feels the need to put too much pressure on Li Feng for getting the tide wrong. Since Link doesn't shave, what does he need a razor for if not to commit suicide? However, in order to be fair, everyone also listed one or two suspicious aspects of the suicide inference. The fact that Link had a return ticket, the fact that he had a passport, and the fact that he had a bag full of gold bars. These make people think that the deceased had planned to leave China. Even so, isn't it possible that he lost his mind at the last minute and decided to use the most convenient way to leave the country and himself? The deceased apparently committed suicide wearing gloves, which is odd, but suicide is a phenomenon known for its weirdness. Of course, there is also Pan Xiaowen (for whom we feel(deep sympathy) Regarding the mood of the deceased, Li Feng and Pan Xiaowen's words were contradictory.
To put it simply, this man, who is a typical Russian in both his birth and personality, is troubled by emotional entanglements and mysterious letters, and his emotional state is very unstable.
