Because the space at the crime scene was limited, Chen Anxia began this time's investigation of the scene and autopsy under the watchful eyes of Memu Shisan, Takagi Wataru, Kudo Shinichi and Watson.
During the investigation of the scene and the autopsy, Chen Anxia simultaneously stated his findings and reasoning.
"The deceased's face was bruised, and his lips and fingernails were also bruised to varying degrees. There was also bleeding under the conjunctival membrane of the deceased's eyes. From this, it can be determined that the deceased died of suffocation."
"As for the cause of suffocation, it should be a small wound on the cervical cord. The murderer should have used some sharp object to pierce the deceased's essence, causing damage to the respiratory neurons of the deceased's medullary respiratory center, causing the deceased to be unable to breathe."
"The strange thing is that about 5 centimeters below and to the right of this small upper mouth, there is a scratch that seems to have been scratched by something."
"Based on the bleeding and blood coagulation of the scar, the time when this scar was formed should be similar to the time when the small wound that caused the death of the deceased was formed."
"It can be inferred from this that the murderer's murder weapon should be an object similar to a staple, with one end sharp and one end blunt."
"Judging from the rigor mortis of the deceased's body, the time of death should be about one to two hours..."
Chen Anxia's findings and reasoning so far are basically the same as those of Kudo Shinichi and Takagi Wataru who did the on-site investigation and autopsy.
It's just that Chen Anxia has a little more speculation than them, and that is the guess about the murder weapon.
To be honest, Kudo Shinichi had also discovered the strange scar discovered by Chen Anxia before.
But Kudo Shinichi did not notice that it was connected with the fatal injury of the deceased, so he naturally did not think of it as a murder weapon, but thought that it was probably injured by the deceased himself.
Now, after Chen Anxia's suggestion, Kudo Shinichi immediately thought of this possibility.
Immediately, Kudo Shinichi looked at Chen Anxia with a serious face, and said to himself, 'This guy's insight and reasoning power are still as terrifying as ever...'
Although Kudo Shinichi didn't want to admit it, he was indeed inferior to Chen Anxia in terms of insight and reasoning ability in this matter.
As for Mu Mu Shisan, Takagi Sheba and Watson who were present, after hearing Chen Anxia's description of the murder weapon, they couldn't help but start to guess the true identity of the murder weapon.
However, all they searched through their storage was that they could never find anything consistent with the murder weapon.
In this regard, Megure Thirteen and Takagi Wataru could only suppress their thoughts for the time being, and planned to wait and search the suspect's luggage to see if they could find anything.
Watson continued to think in his mind, "The security check on the plane is very strict. Under such circumstances, how could the suspect bring that strange-shaped murder weapon onto the plane?" '
Immediately, Watson began to reason, and once again murmured in his heart, "There seem to be only two possible answers to this question." '
'The first is that the murder weapon is not a prohibited item on the plane. Even if it is a metal product, it can be brought on the plane smoothly. '
'The second is that the murder weapon can be assembled or deformed. Before assembly or deformation, it is a standard item that can pass aircraft security inspection. '
'So, what was the murder weapon? '
While Watson was reasoning and thinking, Chen Anxia's on-site investigation and autopsy continued, and he continued to state his findings and reasoning.
"In the toilet trash can, there was a white transparent glass bottle and a soaked handkerchief."
"Judging from the condition of the deceased, it is very likely that the drug contained in it is the drug that stuns the deceased."
"The scene at that time should be that the murderer himself came to the toilet first and soaked the handkerchief with the intoxicating drugs in the glass bottle in advance."
"As soon as the deceased who was invited to the toilet by him arrived, he would use a handkerchief to stun the unsuspecting deceased, and then implement his own criminal plan to kill the deceased."
After hearing what Chen Anxia said, Gao Mushe couldn't help but ask, "Wait a minute, how did you know that the deceased was invited to the toilet by the murderer?"
In response, Chen Anxia did not answer, but continued to investigate the scene and conduct an autopsy, and just called Watson's name.
Watson knew what Chen Anxia meant. After thinking for a while, Watson answered for Chen Anxia, "Because there are many toilets here."
"If the murderer and the deceased went to the toilet at different times, if he wanted to ensure that the deceased could accurately go to the toilet where he had hidden himself in advance, he had to make an agreement with the deceased in advance."
"Not only that, because there were many people on the plane, the murderer would make an appointment with the deceased in advance to meet in the toilet in order to ensure that no one came to the toilet in advance."
"For example, I will go to a certain toilet and wait for you. Come here quickly. I have something important to tell you."
After saying that, Watson paused, glanced at Chen Anxia who did not express any objection, and then continued, "The deceased was tall, even if an adult man wanted to suddenly stun the deceased with a handkerchief, he couldn't do it 100%. success."
"Once it fails, the movement it creates will definitely cause a commotion, which will cause the murderer's criminal plan to fail."
"Since the murderer dared to commit the murder in a place with too many limitations and surprises like an airplane toilet, it means that the murderer had 100% confidence in his crime plan, which included the step of stunning the deceased."
"If you want the success rate of stunning the deceased to reach 100%, there must be a prerequisite, that is, the murderer and the deceased will know each other, and they are acquaintances who can make the deceased defenseless."
After hearing Watson's reasoning, a look of surprise flashed across the faces of Memu Shisan and Takagi Wataru.
As for Kudo Shinichi, he once again felt strong pressure from Watson's reasoning.
Although Kudo Shinichi didn't want to admit it, there was a voice in his heart telling him that Watson's reasoning ability now was enough to rival his own.
After Watson's reasoning ended, Chen Anxia continued to state his findings and reasoning.
"A few drops of blood were sprayed on the wall against which the deceased was leaning, but it was not stained at all on his clothes."
"This shows that the deceased leaned his back against the wall after the blood on the wall had coagulated."
"The room temperature of an airplane is about 22 to 24 degrees Celsius. In this case, the natural coagulation time of human blood outside the body is 5 to 12 minutes."
"If the deceased really died of suffocation caused by damage to the medulla oblongata, it would have been impossible for him to hold his back against the wall for five minutes."
"This also means that after the death of the deceased, someone else came to the crime scene and placed the body of the deceased against the wall."
"As for the purpose, it should be that the deceased's posture with his back against the wall would make it easier for him to find something from the deceased's body."
"Secondly, the left pocket of the deceased's trousers was completely soaked. Even if the deceased put his completely wet hands into the pocket after washing his hands without wiping them, it would not be possible for the pocket to be completely wet."
"If you simply consider this anomaly, you won't be able to get an answer, but if you combine it with some reasoning, you can come up with a perfect explanation."
"That is someone who wanted to find something from the deceased. After searching the deceased's pants, he found evidence on them that he had been there."
"That's why the deceased's pocket was completely wet to cover up something."
"However, perhaps because time was full, the man did not completely clean the evidence. If you smell it carefully, you can still smell a little cologne from the wet pocket."
After hearing Chen Anxia's reasoning, the people present immediately turned their attention to the only person present who was sprayed with rich cologne.
This person is Edward Crowe, a freelance journalist from the United States.
Seeing this, Edward Crowe closed his eyes slightly, then opened his eyes and admitted helplessly, "It is indeed Chen Anxia who is called the modern Sherlock Holmes."
"Your reasoning is as accurate as if you witnessed my every move at that time."
"Yes, I did contact the deceased after his death in order to find the negatives on him about a certain American senator."
"However, I originally followed the deceased to the toilet in order to make a deal with the deceased, but I didn't expect that when I arrived at the toilet, the deceased had already been killed."
As he said that, Edward Crowe looked at Chen Anxia and asked with confusion, "There is something I can't understand. When I cleaned the deceased's pocket, I had carefully confirmed that there was no smell on it."
"How can you smell cologne?"
Not only Edward Crowe, but Kudo Shinichi and Takagi Wataru who had searched before were also confused. They also smelled it, and like Edward Crowe, they didn't smell anything.
In response, Chen Anxia stood up and walked out of the crime scene while replying, "I have locked the suspicion on you and another person from the beginning."
"And what makes me focus on you is your facial reaction when you hear the death of the deceased."
"Although you tried your best to disguise your expressions and reactions and tried your best to make your expressions and reactions look like normal reactions."
"But no matter how hard you pretend, there are still flaws in my eyes."
"This flaw tells me that you must have known the fact of the deceased's death for a long time."
"After inspecting the scene and conducting an autopsy on the body, I determined that someone had contact with the deceased after his death."
"Then if you are not the murderer, you are the only one who comes into contact with the murderer after the death of the deceased."
"And why you want to clean the deceased's pockets can be understood by the smell of the strong cologne on your body."
"I also used this to deceive you."
"It doesn't matter even if you don't admit it. As long as you send the deceased's pocket for examination afterwards, you will definitely be able to detect the cologne component in it."
If Watson's previous reasoning was shocking, then Chen Anxia's reasoning caused the cognitive perspective of everyone present to collapse.
Even Kudo Shinichi is the same.
Although they expected that Chen Anxia's reasoning ability would be very strong, they never imagined that Chen Anxia's reasoning ability would be so strong that he could identify the suspect based only on the expression on his face for a few seconds.
And when they were shocked, they saw Chen Anxia coming in front of the real murderer, looking at the murderer with his deep eyes, and saying, "Do you want me to speak, or do you want to explain yourself?"
"The real murderer, Miss Amano Tsumi!"
