240: Chapter 240 Analyzing Clues
"What? Haha~!"
Hearing this, Old Master Hu suddenly burst into laughter.
"Kid, you dare to jump to conclusions without even looking? Those wounds are jagged and uneven, clearly the clumsy handiwork of an ordinary person. Moreover, they likely damaged other organs due to nervousness. Would a professional doctor be like this?"
"Kid, everything needs evidence. Old Master Hu's analysis is perfectly logical, yet you just spout nonsense?"
Zhang Wenye said disdainfully, "You don't even have a shred of criminal investigation experience, yet you dare to boast? A professional doctor? This is an insult to a doctor's skills!"
"Exactly!"
Zhao Feiyu nodded and continued his analysis, "His wounds are indeed jagged, and severe damage was caused to other organs. But is it possible that the murderer did this intentionally to mislead you?"
"Kid, stop talking nonsense. If he were a professional, he wouldn't waste time doing such useless work under such tense circumstances when someone else could walk into the ward at any moment. Why would he waste time?"
Zhang Wenye analyzed his own view, refuting Zhao Feiyu's point.
"Then can you tell what sharp tool he used for the dissection?" Zhao Feiyu asked directly.
"This is clearly a sharp Craft Knife. Otherwise, the cuts wouldn't be this clean!"
Zhang Wenye blurted out.
"Wrong!"
Zhao Feiyu said loudly, "This is clearly a Scalpel! The incisions are clean. Although it looks like a mess of random hacking, the layers are distinct!"
As Zhao Feiyu spoke, he walked up to the victim.
"You can go find a doctor right now to verify it. Although the murderer caused severe damage to other organs—suggesting an amateur rummaging around because they couldn't find the kidney—his cutting of the kidney itself was extremely precise and sharp. He did it in a single stroke!"
Hearing this, Yu Youxin's eyes immediately lit up.
Without waiting for Zhang Wenye to retort, she immediately ordered, "Go find a professional doctor!"
Soon, a doctor was brought in, and he began to examine the wound.
A moment later.
The doctor slowly looked up and said, "The kidney was excised extremely smoothly. Even I don't have such precise experience!"
Hearing this, Yu Youxin was overjoyed.
Meanwhile, Zhang Wenye and the so-called Old Master Hu looked embarrassed, feeling quite humiliated.
"Furthermore, looking at the cross-section of the wound, it should have been cut with a Scalpel, though an ordinary person wouldn't be able to recognize it!" the doctor added.
No one had mentioned this point since the doctor entered.
The doctor had identified it entirely on his own.
Now, Zhao Feiyu's analysis was proven completely correct.
"Just a blind cat bumping into a dead rat!"
Zhang Wenye said, somewhat unconvinced.
"Do you have the ability to analyze and find the murderer?"
"Zhang Wenye, I invited Mr. Zhao here to help us solve the case, not to bicker with you. You should also be mindful of your status. You are a Criminal Investigator. Our common goal is to solve the case, not to argue!"
Yu Youxin rebuked.
Zhang Wenye didn't take Yu Youxin's words to heart at all.
Instead, he turned to Old Master Hu behind him and asked, "Old Master Hu, being able to see dissection techniques is nothing. A pig slaughterer can also cut out a kidney; it's not surprising. I wonder if you've seen anything else?"
"I've looked at the files of several other murder cases. Although there seems to be no connection between these six people, if you observe closely, you'll find similarities in their ages!"
Old Master Hu said, feigning depth, "Bring me this person's Medical Records as well!"
A Criminal Investigator immediately went out and brought the person's Medical Records.
Old Master Hu flipped through them, then snapped the records shut and said excitedly, "That's it! I've discovered another key clue!"
"What clue!" Zhang Wenye asked excitedly.
"These people include men and women of different ages. At first glance, it seems like nothing, but according to their zodiac signs, they all belong to the Year of the Dragon!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
If they hadn't noticed such an important clue, it would have been quite embarrassing.
Soon, another investigator brought the information of the other victims.
After a comparison, everyone was surprised to find that it was exactly as the old man had said.
These people really were all born in the Year of the Dragon.
"Great! Old Master Hu is truly amazing. This clue seemed so casual and unnoticed, yet it has given us immense help!"
Zhang Wenye said excitedly.
"This way, we can infer that the next victim will definitely be born in the Year of the Dragon as well!"
"While it's somewhat helpful, it's better than nothing but not by much, because the scope is too broad. If it's just based on being born in the Year of the Dragon, there should be at least two or more people among us here who were born in the Year of the Dragon!"
Zhao Feiyu shook his head and said disdainfully.
"That's true. I'm also a Dragon!"
"Me too!"
"I'm a Dragon too!"
...
Immediately, three investigators stood up and exclaimed.
"And besides this similarity, without other regional clues, it's not of much use!"
"Who can't talk big? Didn't the clue about the Scalpel you mentioned also fail to provide much help?" Zhang Wenye snorted.
Then he continued to ask Old Master Hu, "Old Master Hu, are there any other clues?"
"Not for now, but what I'm best at is finding clues through the dead!" Old Master Hu said proudly.
"Finding clues through the dead?"
Everyone suddenly felt it was unbelievable.
"How can you find clues from a dead person?"
"Could it be that dead people can speak?"
"For a Forensic Doctor, some physical clues might be the 'words' of the dead, but as for what Old Master Hu said, I really don't know!"
...
Saying this, Old Master Hu walked straight to the corpse.
"This world is very large, so large that you cannot see things beyond your cognition."
"For example, souls..."
At this point, Zhao Feiyu also became interested.
"A person's spirit possesses energy. After a person dies, their spirit will not dissipate temporarily. At this time, it forms what we call a Ghost!"
"Hiss!"
Hearing this, everyone gasped.
Instantly, they felt the temperature of the entire room drop.
Zhao Feiyu raised an eyebrow and listened with interest.
Because what this fellow was saying was similar to how Lin Jiuying had described the spirit before.
"Once a person dies, especially someone who died a wrongful death, they will inevitably have an obsession, and this obsession will affect their own spirit!"
Old Master Hu continued.
"Especially for someone who died such an unnatural death, a part of their spirit will be attached to the murderer. Through this, I can find the killer!"
"That's simply nonsense!" Yu Youxin said disdainfully.
"Little girl, you don't believe me?"
Old Master Hu looked at Yu Youxin sinisterly.
Just then, Zhao Feiyu suddenly felt a burst of energy erupt from the old man.
