032. Time of Death - Confirmation

"If so, then her death should be no more than an hour after eating the burger."

Qiao Feng nodded, and after thinking about it, he said, "So, after being seen by Tao Lexi and He Yingxiong last night, Ms. He Xianya should have been killed around 9:30 pm."

“This is not necessarily.”

Bell continued to dissect the food residues, and soon she pulled out some sandy objects mixed with liquid.

"There is sand in her stomach. Although it has not been carefully tested, I think she shouldn't take the initiative to chew mud, right? Well, to confirm this..."

She put her hand into He Xianya's chest again and hugged the lungs. Then, she cut it a little...

Hulalala-

A lot of liquid flowed out of the swollen lungs.

"There is a lot of water in the lungs of the corpse. It should be sea water. Then, according to the fact that there is no fatal injury on the body, it is right. She did not die of organ damage after falling, but of drowning and suffocation. Simply put, she was drowned."

Hearing this, Qiao Feng also began to draw an image in his mind. After a simple sorting, he said-

"Well...Bell, according to what you said, He Xianya should have fallen off the cliff first, but she did not fall to death, but fell into a coma or unable to move. Then, the sea water rises, gradually flooding her mouth and nose, and then drowning her?"

Bell laughed, inserted the scalpel in his hand very easily into the cut lung, nodding, "That's right. That's it. So, the digestion of food in her stomach cannot be determined as the time when she fell off the cliff. Then, depending on the degree of decay of the body, her death should be 24 to 28 hours ago. That is to say...well, between 6:30 last night and 10:30 last night."

"In addition, because of bruises on the surface of her body, the bruises are bright red when they first formed. This is because the blood seeps out of the capillaries when they rupture. The red blood cells in the blood contain heme. It has a bright red color. However, a little blue-purple color is found in the middle of these bruises. This is because the dead red blood cells in the ecchymosis are swallowed by macrophages, the heme is broken down, and bile purin is generated under the action of microsomal enzymes. This is why bruises appear blue-purple color."

"So, she should have been seriously injured after falling off the cliff, unable to move or fell into a coma. She had bruises on her body and formed bruises. But almost two or three hours after the bruises formed, her mouth and nose began to be blocked by sea water, and she suffocated and died."

Qiao Feng calculated and continued, "Since that's the case...that's the case. After 7 o'clock last night, He Xianya fell from that curve. Then she fell paralyzed on the gravel beach below, but she never died. Then, the tide started at 7:45. Generally speaking, it took about 3 hours from the beginning of the tide to the completion of the tide, and the tide was completed at around 10:45. Among them, the time when the gravel beach completely submerged and the gravel beach was unable to breathe should be at 9:45."

"Pushing forward from 9:45 for three hours...it's 6:45 pm, pushing forward for two hours, it's 7:45. In other words, He Xianya should have fallen off the cliff within one hour between 6:45 and 7:45."

Listening to the conclusion that Qiao Feng came to, Bell shrugged and smiled.

After knowing He Xianya's specific death time and falling off the cliff, Qiao Feng was not very relaxed.

He and Bell wrapped He Xianya's body with plastic cloth, which was broken, walked out of the room and came into the hall.

At this time, everyone had not come back. But after taking out Qiao Feng's mobile phone and pressing the busy voice from the receiver, I'm afraid... I'm really trapped on this island.

"Ok, what are we going to do next? Mr. Detective."

Bell washed his hands and looked at Qiao Feng with a smile.

Qiao Feng looked at the woman, tilted his head and thought for a while, and couldn't help but smile and said, "If you don't mind, Miss Bell, I want to know where you were during the period from 6:45 to 7:45 last night?"

Bell was stunned, and a very surprised look appeared on his face: "Why? My whereabouts? She fell off the cliff by herself."

"Haha, actually I want to confirm this. But it's a pity that although he was not able to judge the signs of killing from the autopsy. But... since we found that someone died, we could not contact the outside world to judge..."

The dark sky outside the window couldn't help but flash a pale lightning flashed through.

This lightning reflected Qiao Feng's face, illuminating his face so pale...

"I should be able to confirm. The two girls Xia Yu and Qiao Xue were removed from the island... Among the remaining 17 people, one should have killed Ms. He Xianya for some reason. And the reason for his severance of communication is probably to kill more people."

"In this case... don't you think that as one of the successors, you... are very suspicious?"

Bell, didn't speak.

She just sat opposite Qiao Feng very quietly.

She lowered her head, and the color at the corner of her mouth made Qiao Feng unable to understand what she was thinking.

After being silent for nearly a minute with each other... the girl finally spoke again and said slowly-

"I'm having a meal in the restaurant. I think you should have seen me."

Qiao Feng nodded and said, "It takes less than two minutes to get from the restaurant to the lobby. The only problem is the main road leading to the fall point in front of the gate. Even if this road is run, the round trip time may take half an hour. What's more, it's already very dark at around 6 o'clock in the evening, so it's hard to walk quickly without a flashlight."

Bell smiled slightly: "Will that be fine?"

In response, Qiao Feng shook his head slowly: "No. He Xianya's fall time is inferred as 6:45 minutes. You only appeared in the restaurant at 7:02. So, you have 17 minutes of time in a vacuum period. These 17 minutes are enough for you to run back to the villa from the fall and enter the restaurant. What I want to ask is, what are you doing in these 17 minutes?"

Speaking of this, Bell finally raised his hands and surrendered: "Okok, I admit defeat. Is Holmes from China? I'm really careless at all. Well, I took a bath in the room for the 17 minutes before this. There was no witness proof. If anyone had peeked at me taking a bath, I think I should be able to prove my innocence. Then, have you peeked at me?"

Qiao Feng seemed a little silent, lowered his head and said nothing.

At this point, Bell took a milk candy from the coffee table next to him very readily, peeled off the candy paper and threw it into his mouth, and said with a smile: "If you really want to say suspicious words, Mr. Detective, you are also a suspect. Can you prove that between 6:45 and 7:45, do you have a perfect absent proof?"

“……………………………………Yu and Xiaoxue can prove… No, their proof, you can not believe it. What’s worse is…”

Qiao Feng's hands were tightly squeezed together.

He lowered his head, his body curled up involuntarily, and his head was heavily pressed against his fists, and his whole body seemed very anxious.

"What's worse is... where are you now? Please...you...you must...you don't have any trouble..."

"Rain...Little Snow..."

Place:???

time:???

Xia Yu was sleeping sounded in his ears.

The sound became louder and louder, and the movements that drove her also seemed louder and louder.

Slowly, the girl opened her eyes.

The blurry sound in her ears was now like thunder, and it blasted into her ears.

"Mom...Mom? Old...! Mom--! Wake up, wake up, wake up, mom!!!"
