Chapter 1761: The Real Cause of Death

The police station in Xiangjiang is called the Police Department.

At this moment, forensic doctors Zhao Yu and Zhang Peipei are examining the corpse in the autopsy room and listening to the report of the local police forensic personnel.

An old forensic doctor who looked a bit sloppy said in very blunt Mandarin: "It was indeed strangled! It was strangled very hard, and the strangle marks were very obvious...

"The face is bruised and swollen, with bleeding spots on the skin, bleeding spots on the conjunctiva of the eyes, and foamy fluid in the nose and mouth. These are the most common symptoms of strangulation..."

"Wait a minute, I just want to understand something," Zhao Yu said, "The murderer dragged the deceased from the bedroom to the living room and strangled him to death!

"But...the deceased is lying on the ground, how can he be strangled to death?" Zhao Yu put on a simple posture and asked, "If you want to strangle a lying person to death, do you have to kick his shoulders and then Tighten the rope?"

"That's not it..." The old forensic doctor also made a gesture, and said, "Pressing the person face down on the ground, and then stepping on his back, strangled him like this..."

"Is it like this?" Zhao Yu followed suit, "If that's the case, there are no footprints left on the back?"

"What? Footprints?" The old forensic doctor was taken aback for a moment, then scratched his head and said, "There seems to be no obvious footprints, right?"

"What is it like?" Zhao Yu smacked his lips.

"Well, absolutely not!" The old forensic doctor quickly changed his words, "The murderer may have taken off his shoes, or was wearing shoe covers..."

"Okay, okay..." Zhao Yu shook his head helplessly, and continued to ask, "Where's the murder weapon? Did you find anything?"

"It's made of metal," said the old forensic doctor. "It should be something like steel cables and wires. Judging from the strangle marks, it's as thick as half a finger!"

"Then... what about Gumanthong? Where is Gumanthong now?"

"It's in the forensics department," the old forensic doctor gestured to the next door, "the test should have been completed by now."

"Okay," Zhao Yu turned and said to Zhang Peipei, "Forensic Doctor Zhang, I will leave this to you. You can check the corpse and evidence carefully, and let me know if there is anything wrong."

"Hmm..." Zhang Peipei nodded.

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yu stepped forward to leave, but just as he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly turned around and asked the old forensic doctor:

"correct,

Is that Thai guy here? Zhao Yu stroked his long hair and glasses with his hand, "Is that the expert?" "

"Come, come!" The old forensic doctor nodded affirmatively, "I came over half an hour ago to look at the corpse, and left in a hurry!"

"What!? So simple?" Zhao Yu muttered in his heart, and hurriedly asked again, "Then did he say anything?"

The old forensic doctor shook his head.

"Then what was his expression at that time?" Zhao Yu asked again.

"Expression? Expression..." The old forensic doctor recalled it carefully, and said seriously, "I was busy with work, so I didn't look carefully!"

"I'll go..." Zhao Yu gave this person a dark look, but he couldn't react.

In desperation, he had no choice but to stride out of the autopsy room, and then walked towards the forensics department.

Originally, the local police had arranged for Zhao Yu to have a higher-level assistant, but Zhao Yu was holding his breath, so he sent him away.

However, Zhao Yu was well-known now, and the local police officers knew him well, so when he entered the forensics department and asked to check the evidence, he quickly saw Gumantong.

The so-called Gumantong is a child-like doll-shaped item made of some special materials, with different shapes and sizes.

The one found on the body of the deceased was a black Gumanthong the size of a goose egg.

Gumantong was in a sitting posture, with some incomprehensible mantras written on his body...

This kind of thing, at first glance, feels a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Zhao Yu briefly asked the staff of the forensic department, and the other party replied that only the fingerprints matching the deceased were found on Gumantong's body, and nothing else was found.

"Then..." Zhao Yu saw the mantra on Gumantong, and suddenly remembered the Thai expert, so he asked casually, "Has that Thai expert, Mia, visited this Gumantong?"

"No...no..." The witnesses looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

No way?

This time, Zhao Yu felt something was wrong even more.

If that Thai expert had just gone to the autopsy room to examine the body, why didn't he do the same as himself and drop by to have a look at Gumanthong?

Also, the old forensic doctor said that he came here just to take a look at the corpse, and then left in a hurry...

gone?

Why did you go?

no……

Zhao Yu felt more and more strange about the Thai expert's behavior, so he quickly put down Gumantong and left the forensics department.

As soon as he went out, he immediately called Ding Lan:

"Hello? Sister, didn't you say before that I can talk to you if I want to communicate? Can you help me find that Thai expert now, I want to have a good talk with him!"

"No problem," Ding Lan replied very simply, "Now go to the parking lot, and I'll take you to find him!"

Next, Zhao Yu did not return to the office to preside over the detection work, but got into Ding Lan's car and drove to the entrance of a western restaurant very close to the police station.

"Box No. 5," Ding Lan gestured to the restaurant, and said concisely, "There is only one person! You can talk about it yourself, I won't go in!"

sharp……

Zhao Yu secretly admired that the Secret Service was indeed the Secret Service, and everyone's traces were under their control.

So, Zhao Yu stepped into the western restaurant, and soon saw Dr. Mia from the No. 5 box.

To his surprise, the doctor was sipping coffee leisurely while reading an English newspaper.

However, this person's vigilance is relatively high, and Dr. Mia discovered Zhao Yu just after he appeared.

"Oh?" Mia looked at Zhao Yu carefully with her hands on the frame of her glasses, but said without being surprised, "Isn't this Mr. Detective? Why are you here?"

Zhao Yu smiled slightly, greeted the other party, and then sat opposite the doctor.

"Oh..." Mia put down the newspaper, nodded at Zhao Yu politely and said, "I think, do you want to talk to me about this case?"

"Gumantong is your strong point," Zhao Yu clasped his hands together, "I hope you can enlighten me, sir!"

"Oh, don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it!" Mia quickly waved her hands, and then said, "We are originally a joint investigation, and we should learn from each other!"

"Then..." Zhao Yu opened his palm and made a gesture, which meant that you don't have any ink marks, and get down to business!

"Hehehe..." Mia put her hands down her glasses habitually, and said, "This case is a crude imitation, and it is not the work of the real Gumanthong killer. You can rest assured about this. Already!"

really……

In fact, Zhao Yu had already guessed that this might be the result, otherwise, it would be impossible for Mia not to even take a look at that Gumantong.

"The altar of the deceased's house faces west, which is a taboo for making offerings to Gumantong!

"Also...the belt of the deceased was made of crocodile skin," Mia said, "It is taboo to use wild animal products, such as elephants and crocodiles, for offering to Gumantong.

"Also, the aroma and layout of the house are not like a person who raises a Gumantong.

"So, that Gumantong should not belong to the deceased!"

"Oh..." Zhao Yu had done his homework before, but after all, he had too little contact with this kind of thing.

"In addition, the position of the strangle marks on the deceased's neck is wrong," Mia said again, "When the Gumantong killer strangles people, it will be closer to the front, and the shape of the strangle marks on the neck is also wrong!

"So... this is a very crude imitation murder, the murderer doesn't know the details of the real Gumantong case at all... um..."

Who knows, at this point, Mia suddenly lost her mind slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, he finally lowered his voice and whispered to Zhao Yu: "I don't know, do you know that the real cause of death of the Gumantong case...was not strangulation! "

"Ah? What!?" As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yu was suddenly surprised...
