Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

"Hello."

Gao Cheng lightly shook hands with the indifferent woman in bewilderment.

Prisoner friend? Sympathetic prisoners making errors of judgment?

How come he has no impression at all? The only case where he made a mistake seems to be the one before he crossed over, right?

"She is Dr. Sancheng, an assistant professor at the Medical University, and now she is the chief surgeon in the anatomy class," Yingzi Jouchi said with a smile, "If that's the case, let Dr. Sancheng show you around... Are you free?"

The last sentence was a question to the indifferent woman. Although this Dr. Sancheng looked indifferent, he seemed easy to get along with and had a sweet smile. He might have shown more of a confident and rational independent woman.

It is indeed not easy to be an assistant professor at this age.

"Visit?" Dr. Sancheng looked at Gao Cheng after hearing the words, "There will be an autopsy soon, but Detective Kido can just watch on the spot."

"On-site observation? Actually, I..."

"Hurry up, the seniors from the anatomy class should have arrived."

Before Gao Chengduo could say anything, Dr. Sancheng made a decision to leave the laboratory in a hurry, and Yingzi Cheng Nei smiled wryly as he looked at her impatiently.

"She is like this. She has only been here for a few days, but she is really powerful. She has dissected more than 1,000 corpses and is an expert in the study of forced suicide cases."

"Compulsive suicide?"

"I heard that this time it was a group suicide by burning charcoal." Dr. Sancheng turned around, "Mr. Police is also here, maybe it's your favorite homicide case."

"It's not a matter of liking or disliking, is it?"

Gao Cheng feels uncomfortable in his stomach when he thinks about the dissection and observation, but Xiao Ai has already followed Sancheng.

If I had known earlier, I would not have brought Xiao Ai here...

Having said that, unnatural death must be reported to the Supervision Hospital. It is not surprising that the police come over, but the Supervision Hospital usually only conducts administrative autopsies, that is, it mainly focuses on autopsies of abnormal deaths that have nothing to do with criminal offenses.

There are two kinds of forensic anatomy in Japan, forensic anatomy and administrative anatomy. If there is a suspicion of homicide, the forensic anatomy will be performed by the forensic science department of the university. Dr. Sancheng used to be in charge of the judicial anatomy in the university.

In other cases, administrative autopsies are carried out, and the supervisory doctors are responsible.

Therefore, the corpses sent to the Supervision Hospital are usually not related to criminal crimes or no crimes were suspected during the prosecution. After all, some causes of death can only be determined after an autopsy.

"Since it was suicide by burning charcoal, is there still a need for an autopsy?" Gao Cheng asked curiously.

"I think so too," a skinny police officer said helplessly, "Don't make trouble for such an obvious suicide..."

"Of course an autopsy is required," Dr. Sancheng replied while changing clothes, "Even if there is only a slight suspicion of homicide, you can't give up casually. case, which is why I came to monitor the hospital."

"In the past? Was there such a case in the past?" The police officer looked bitter, "Doctor Sancheng, did you listen to me?"

"Your name is Xiao Ai, right?" Sancheng looked at Xiao Ai and said, "I don't consider the children's audience here, so why don't you watch it outside?"

"Can……"

Gao Cheng has also changed his clothes, a transparent gown and a mask.

He also wanted to look outside through the glass, but other people didn't seem to have such plans. The staff in the anatomy class were doing their own preparations, and they all looked very relaxed.

"Won't the doctor in the city come?"

"Doctors in the city are mainly in charge of inspection and identification," the police officer stood by as if he was an idler, and no one even paid attention to him, so he could only find Gao Chengdao with a smile. I am..."

"Officer Maoli," Sancheng re-entered the autopsy room after talking with Xiao Ai, "If you have time, can you tell Detective Kido about the situation?"

"Uh," the police officer was rather embarrassed, "My humble Maori, who happens to have the same surname as the famous detective Mori Kogoro, haha...I'm afraid a famous detective won't be needed in this case,

That is, the delivery man who delivered the newspaper in the morning found a letter outside the mailbox of Sato’s home. The letter was written by Masaichi Sato. On the ground, they are all dead..."

"Suicide by burning charcoal?" Gao Cheng looked at the four corpses on the dissection table in transparent bags.

"Yes, the skins of all four people have turned orange-pink, which is characteristic of carbon monoxide poisoning," Police Officer Maori said with a headache, "The suicide note was also found at the scene, but Dr. I found it..."

"Because a girl has bruises on her wrist from being tied up," Sancheng interrupted, "and the four of them are completely unrelated, aren't they?"

"That's right," Police Officer Mao Li met Gao Cheng's gaze and coughed lightly. "Their identity documents were indeed found at the scene. The first one is Saeki Hatsuko, an 88-year-old woman who decided to commit suicide because of unbearable pain. A suicide note was left, and the hospital confirmed it...

"Then the owner of the house, Masaichi Sato, 56 years old, male, his wife filed for divorce two and a half years ago, and was asked to retire early by the company, but he didn't find another job..."

Police officer Maori introduced the corpse in the autopsy room and took out documents to explain: "The investigation found that Sato Masaichi once logged on to a forum website for suicide volunteers, looked for suicide partners on it, and summoned the remaining three people, and he was the one who planned to commit suicide. coals and seven-wheel oven..."

"Called 3 people?"

Gao Cheng walked up to the dead body of the young girl with bruises on her wrists. Her orange-pink skin looked as if she was still alive, and she might open her eyes at any time.

"Is this girl too? Much younger than the others, who are at least 51 years old."

"It's common to be hopeless about life at a young age," Police Officer Maori shook his head and said, "But only her identity has not been confirmed, so she left a suicide note..."

"Unidentified?"

Gao Cheng took the girl's suicide note, and there was a line of delicate words written on a piece of white paper.

"Yeah," Maori police officer sighed, "there is no home, and the suicide note is very bleak."

"Life is not something that can be given up casually," Gao Cheng examined the girl carefully, "is the suicide note really hers?"

"Otherwise?" Sergeant Maori shrugged.

"this is?"

Gao Cheng's gaze stopped at the tip of the girl's hair, on which there were some white crystals.

"This one," Police Officer Maori poked his head over, "I've asked the Appraisal Division to examine it, but..."

"This is salt," Gao Cheng said softly, "When the hair is wetted with salt water, this kind of crystallization will finally appear."

"what?"

"Salt?" Sancheng, who took the dissection tools, paused, turned his head and looked straight at Gao Cheng, "Are you sure?"

"I've seen similar cases before, but it's hard to say until the test results come out."

Gao Cheng let go of the girl's hair, raised his head and faced everyone in the anatomy class.

"It's possible that he killed..."
