53. Flying Magic

John died in his room. When the embassy found out, his entire face was already purple from his neck to his forehead.

"this..."

Kondo Yuki, who arrived in the room, his pupils shrank, something bad happened.

If foreigners die in Japan, if this matter is a big deal, the shogunate will have a headache.

Qin Ming had already seen the murderer, a female monster with a beautiful appearance and a seven-point similar to Afu.

"Cough cough..." Qin Ming coughed lightly: "It should be an accident. Someone once fell on the pillow after getting drunk, but ended up suffocating himself to death."

"Ah?" The first question was Ryuma Sakamoto: "No, can you still suffocate yourself to death? And John didn't lie on the pillow!"

He looked at John's body carefully and analyzed: "The shin was injured, and he looked like he was deficient in energy, and had an affair with the widow... Could it be Feiyuan Demon?"

"The men who are entangled by Feiyuan Demon are usually stolen from their shins and their energy is deficient, which is obviously very similar to C."

"I remember that widow was born in Bingwu year. A woman born in Bingwu year will give birth to Feiyuan Demon, and even if she remarries, she will still have to be defeated, and there can be as many as five or six..."

"hiss...."

After Longma made a statement, everyone shuddered.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible. The widow had the meaning of being a husband, and there was also the legend of Feiyuan Demon. John was so strangely dead...

Qin Ming was speechless, how could you always guess the truth?

But Feiyuanmo was on the side, so he had to smile lightly, then pretend to check on John.

Then, nonsense: "John did die of suffocation. Most of the pillows in ordinary families were stuffed with thatch and other stuffed objects, and the space was large, but the embassy's pillows were full and soft, so they might be able to block their mouths and noses and suffocate them when drunk."

"Asphyxia is divided into pre-asphyxia, inhaled dyspnea period, exhaled dyspnea period, non-breathing period and breathing stop period."

"It can be guessed that yesterday everyone had a great time talking and drank a lot of wine. John was unconscious and his steps were sluggish. When he returned to the room, he lay down on the bed and went to bed."

"He has a problem with his posture. He faces the pillow and his whole face is covered. Because of the effect of alcohol, his body cannot turn over naturally and cause respiratory disorders. This is the early stage of suffocation."

"But no one found that after the body metabolizes, it consumes residual oxygen in the body, which aggravates the hypoxia in the body. Under the stimulation of carbon dioxide, breathing deepens and accelerates, and becomes panting. At this time, the heartbeat accelerates, blood pressure rises, and enters the inhaled dyspnea period."

"Then it is too late to the dyspnea period. During this period, the respiratory center changes from excitation to inhibition, and breathing becomes shallow, slow, or even temporarily stops. The heartbeat is weak, blood pressure drops, muscle spasms disappear, and it looks like a false death."

"Mr. John fell into the breathless period, his pupils were dilated and his muscles were loose. Finally, he entered the breathing period and died quietly without anyone noticing."

Everyone was stunned when they heard it. You have many words, listen to you.

But Longma still had questions: "But... Mr. John didn't lie on the pillow!"

"Can't someone turn the body after death?" Qin Ming spread his hands: "If you don't turn John over and see the situation on his face, you can't judge death?"

He looked at a group of seamen and asked, "Who discovered it first?"

A young seaman with freckles on his face timidly stretched out his hand: "It's me."

He is young, easy to fool and nervous, and probably won't remember anything that happened just now.

very good.

Qin Ming changed his face to a serious face: "You should have flipped John's body, right? Turn him from the back of the pillow to the front, so that you can judge whether you die."

"I..." The young seaman looked dazed, and everyone's eyes were focused on him, and the pressure was too great.

"If you think about it carefully, John must have his shin on the head of the bed, and his feet were unstable, so he lay on the pillow, suffocating to death. If you find him, he didn't stick to the pillow, we can only investigate again."

"If it's either an accident, it's just a killing, and the suspect... can only be between you."

No one saw through the naked threat and induce inquiry, but instead everyone became in danger.

The embassy has a tight escort, and it is unlikely that someone will break in and kill John. Moreover, John is just an envoy, not a consul. There are several ministers and embassies like him. Why do the Japanese really want to kill someone?

As for Qin Ming and others, there are also suspicions, but the suspicion is too small. When everyone was drinking last night, they heard John say that although they didn’t know what was going on, these people saved John’s life. Since they were going to kill him, why should they still save him?

Then we can only start with the grievances of our daily lives. Aren’t these seafarers the suspects?

"Mr. Darwin, if it were not accidents or artificial, there would be only monsters left to cause trouble, but monsters do not exist."

Seeing that Darwin was a little suspicious, Qin Ming immediately added.

"Hmm..." Darwin was also confused.

"So, when you found Mr. John, was his mouth and nose pressed against the pillow?" Qin Ming asked the young seaman again.

"yes..."

"Sure enough." Qin Ming nodded and unbuttoned John's clothes: "There are no external injuries on his face except for the bruised and swelling on his face and neck."

"There is no other damage to the chest except for the traces of cyanosis."

While checking, Qin Ming showed everyone his analysis.

Nonsense, Feiyuan Demon absorbs essence and damages the tibia. Apart from this, there are no other physical attacks, and the monster is quite principled.

Longma's face became more and more confused: "Isn't it really not Feiyuan Demon?"

Qin Ming was too lazy to pay attention. In fact, what he said just now had loopholes, such as John's mouth and nose were not heavy, and if he was really suffocated to death by the pillow, the mark would not be so light.

But no one could tell that the 19th century, when there was no means to criminal investigation, would not have such systematic knowledge, and the idiots who pursued it would not have to expect.

He continued to look carefully and fooled:

"There are no scars on the surface, gums, lip mucosa, and no damage or bleeding."

"If John is pressed to the pillow by man, causing suffocation, the teeth will be squeezed by external forces and lips, leaving some scars."

Qin Ming pushed away the hair on the back of John's head and touched it casually and pressed:

"The scalp is not damaged, and there is no subcutaneous bleeding."

As for whether he was injured or not, he didn't know, anyway, and no one else understood it.

However, at this step, he was more careful and secretly pulled out a bunch of hair.

After Qin Ming's "fine inspection", everyone analyzed one by one, and finally they could only draw conclusions:

"It seems...it's really an unfortunate accident."

Qin Ming is so confident and so organized, it is really hard to doubt it.

Then, Matsuhei Etsubashi and Harris, the consul of the embassy, ​​rushed over. The death of a foreign minister was enough to shock the major event of the shogunate.

After hearing the incident, Matsuhira Etsubashi was unquestionable and he was relieved. Fortunately, it was an accident. If it was related to the recent rise of the thieves, it would inevitably affect the relationship between the two countries and the shogunate situation would be even more difficult.

Harris seemed to have no doubts and brought Qin Ming and Matsuhei Rongbao into the embassy's office. After confirming that there was no one else, he asked: "Why did Mr. Abe lie?"

Qin Ming: "..."
