Chapter 771 - Dried Corpse
Corpse woman, sailor suit, dark skirt, black high heels, exposed skin is almost completely desiccated, with no signs of damage except for sunken eye sockets.
"Anyway, the form of this dead man is a little too strange," Conan muttered to himself rather confused as he looked at the corpse.
"yes," Kogoro Mori nodded. "That's really ...... Something strange. β
"Did you notice anything wrong?" At this moment, Fei Yingli also walked over and looked at the two of them.
"Although this corpse can be explained by the reason that it has been dead for too long and has dried up, this dehydrated appearance is very strange, not like the ordinary appearance of a dried corpse." Mori Kogoro smacked his lips and added. "And what's even weirder is that I think her bra is too small."
Under the white shirt, the black bra on the chest of the corpse stands out.
"Too small?" Fei Yingli's brow twitched. "What do you mean by that? A woman's body has to be convex and backward to be a woman - wait a minute......"
"You get the idea," Kogoro Mori nodded after seeing that Fei Yingli was clearly aware of the problem. "Look at this bra ......"
Saying this, he twitched his brow a little, but finally believed that Mori Kogoro should not have any thoughts about the dry corpse - even if it was a **, and judging from the sailor suit and high heels, it should be a young girl who was in good shape before her death - Fei Yingli poked the female corpse's bra in the face. "It was a perfect fit, there was no space at all, and it was obviously something that was temporarily replaced after the corpse was dehydrated, and it was the size of the dehydration. If it's an original part, it probably looks loose, right? β
"So, did you find out about this too?" Concubine Yingli forcibly suppressed her emotions and looked at Conan with an unkind face. "I found out that this woman's bra was too small."
"No, I just think there's something strange about this corpse because...... You see, her body, although largely intact, has ...... skin"
As she spoke, she pointed to the skin of the corpse's neck, which was not covered by clothingβa crack in the skin that sideways around the deceased's entire neck was clearly visible.
"If such a line means that the deceased died from the decapitation of the murderer, why should the head of the corpse be deliberately connected back when the body is thrown away? And if it means that the murderer ripped off the face of the deceased and put it on, why did the murderer do it? β
"In addition, this corpse is very well preserved - the natural conditions here in Tokyo obviously do not meet the needs of forming a dried corpse, so it is likely that the murderer made this corpse into a dry corpse by hand - what is his purpose?"
"This cosmetics ......" Fei Yingli also made this judgment after carefully observing the lips of the corpse. I'm not sure if that's really the case...... But was this lipstick applied before the body was thrown? β
When Conan and Mori Kogoro looked at the deceased's lips, they realized that the problem that Fei Yingli pointed out was actually quite strange - the corpse's dry lips were quite distorted compared to normal people, but the lipstick was still applied to it with precision. There is no doubt that this was smeared by someone after the body had been completely dried.
It was only when these suspicions were brought up by the three of them that they felt the strangeness of this corpse.
Sure enough, this kind of corpse dumping behavior that has no traces of the scene to look for is more appropriate to be handed over to professional forensic personnel, and they, who are detectives or lawyers, should not claim to be professional in that kind of place.
β¦β¦
A few hours later, Rice Flower Central Hospital.
"You called us here to ......," Qianyu had a speechless expression on her face. No...... Aren't Brother Fujiwara and Sister Hotaru your assistants? Why don't you put them in charge? β
"This time the situation is more special, and the two of them will probably not be able to work properly." Gregory's answer surprised Chiha.
"Well, even if it's so...... What did you call Ashbara for? Qian Yu looked at the gray plain beside him. She doesn't have much knowledge in forensics, does she? Why ......"
"I'm actually quite basic," but at this moment, Gray Plains' words surprised Chiha. "The things I forgot have basically been recovered, and there is indeed a practical ability to anatomy among them - don't underestimate me."
"Hear me, she's got a lot more than you do," Grigory said, smug on his face. "Now she knows no less than you like this, don't underestimate it!"
"Okay......" With a look of unrelieved relief, Qian Yu nodded. In a word...... Can you give us an idea of why this is special? β
"The answer is simple, because the corpse this time is an acquaintance, and in fact the two of you may know each other as well."
"We know each other too?" Qian Yu was stunned. "That'...... Someone we all know, is it ......"
At that moment, he didn't actually think of anyone else, but Fujiwara and Hotaru's respective same-sex friends, Takeda and Yuma. [Won't you...... Obviously they are all such innocent guys, will they still be involved in murder cases and something like that? If that were the case, contemporary society would be shrouded in an atmosphere of terror. γ
Of course, the environment of the rice flower is indeed not so bad that the innocent children will die in an instant, so Qian Yu was sure at first glance that the dead were not those two. But in the next second, the auxiliary unit reconstructed the face of the corpse that had been unrecognizable due to dehydration, and the results of the restoration made Chiba realize that he did indeed know each other, and also made him realize why Mizuko Hotaru and Fujiwara were not called by Gregory to participate in the autopsy.
Because this time the person lying on the dissecting table, Chiba knew - Conan and they had actually seen this woman too, but the woman was still alive at the time, and a little dressing up could make a man swoon.
Nami, this girl had such a name when she was alive, and if Chiba remembered correctly, just a few days ago, Fujiwara and Hotaru seemed to have agreed to spend the night with this girl.
If they are allowed to continue to do this kind of work, only God knows how much reason they will be able to maintain. But in comparison, the relationship between Chiba and this girl has only met once, and because Gray Yuan has never even seen her in the hospital before, the two of them will not be affected by this incident at all.
"But why are you coming to us?" Gray Plains suddenly asked a new question. "Do you have other assistants, can't they do the work instead?"
"Them?" Grigory stared at the corpse. "They don't have a tight mouth, and when the time comes, the water department will definitely ask them, how can those young people not pour beans from bamboo tubes and say everything."
"Do you want to keep it a secret from Sister Hotaru?" Chiha, who was about to start the inspection, raised an eyebrow and looked at Gregory. "Can I ask...... Why? β
"You'll know when you've checked it," Grigory replied simply. "Maybe you'll know why I had to let you come."
