[Chapter 72, Speed Train 5-Li Zhemin’s Cause of Death]

Discovering that Li Zhemin was already dead, the other three elderly people in the same room immediately began to scream.

The harsh screams alarmed the other passengers in the same compartment, and eight other senior citizens also ran over.

The old lady who had dinner with Li Zhemin yesterday pushed his body nervously: "Old Li, wake up, wake up soon!" There were two other old ladies who got together and said, "What's the matter?" What's wrong with Lao Li?" "Oh my God, if I can't wake up for so long, maybe it's dead!"

Hearing the word "dead", the old people looked shocked and whispered to each other. Some even took a step forward and wanted to lift the quilt of the deceased to see the situation.

Yu Hanjiang sternly said: "Please go out, don't move the corpse!"

The flight attendant's face was extremely serious, and the voice frightened everyone like thunder. Yu Hanjiang's gaze swept across the crowd sharply, and everyone immediately took a step back with a pale face and consciously stepped back out of Room 2 and gave way to a passage.

Yu Hanjiang strode into Room 2 and quickly scanned the scene of the crime.

The red hats of the tour group and the coats of four people hung on the hangers on the upper and lower bunks. The three beds in 2, 2C and 2D are a little messy because the old man just woke up, but Li Zhemin's 2A bed is extraordinarily neat.

Yu Hanjiang lifted the quilt, Li Zhemin put on a set of plaid pajamas, and his clothes were neatly dressed. Obviously he hadn't fought with anyone before, and there was no sign of struggling—the one who was killed in his sleep or even died. For a moment, Li Zhemin was still dreaming, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, his face especially peaceful.

Most elderly people over the age of 60 sleep very lightly and are easily awakened. There are also some elderly people with insomnia who can't sleep in the middle of the night.

There are four elderly people in room 2 and once one of them happens to be awake, the risk of the murderer being discovered is very high. Obviously, the murderer knows the work and rest habits of these elderly people very well, and make sure that everyone is asleep. .

It is inferred from common sense that it will be easier for three people in the same room as Li Zhemin to commit crimes, because he can observe whether other people and Li Zhemin are asleep at any time to ensure that he will not be found.

However, the possibility of committing crimes by the elderly in rooms 1 and 3 cannot be completely ruled out. After all, these people are colleagues for many years. They know each other very well and often travel together. It may be clear who loves insomnia, who sleeps and snoring. .

The tour guide Qin Shiyue was washing, and after hearing the calls in the carriage, she hurriedly wiped her face with a towel, and ran back quickly with the wash bag.

Seeing a group of people around the door of room 2, Qin Shiyue caught a familiar old lady and asked nervously, "Aunt Zhang, what's the matter?" The old lady pointed to room 2 tremblingly. Said: "Old Li seems to be dead..."

Qin Shiyue's face changed, and she walked quickly over and found that the cabin attendant in Car No. 6 was checking the condition of the deceased.

When she came to the door, the other party just looked up.

His eyes were cold and sharp, almost piercing the bottom of people's heart. Qin Shiyue was startled by his cold eyes, took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, and asked in a trembling voice: "Are Uncle Li and Li really dead? What's the matter?"

People around shook their heads: "I don't know."

The bald old man suddenly said: "Could it be a heart attack? I remember that Old Li seems to have a heart attack all the time!"

An old man next to him echoed: "Yes, that's right, Lao Li has had high blood pressure and heart disease for many years. His bed was the upper bunk, and he was worried that he would sleep high and get sick in the middle of the night, so he deliberately changed to the lower bunk with me."

Another old man said: "He takes medicine on time every day. He has had heart surgery before and is said to have a stent installed!"

The three people who mentioned heart disease are the old men who live in the same room as Li Zhemin.

Yu Hanjiang ignored their wild guesses and said in a low voice, "Xiao Qin, please go to Car No. 4 and call the flight attendant over."

Qin Shiyue nodded with a pale face, and turned quickly to the No. 4 carriage.

When she came to Car No. 4, she happened to ran into Xiao Lou, who was rushing here. Qin Shiyue said hurriedly: "Hello, are you the flight attendant of car 4? The flight attendant of car 6 asked you to come over!"

Xiao Lou nodded politely, and rushed to Car 6 in a stride.

There was such a big movement early in the morning in the No. 6 car. Although there was a whole section of the dining car in between, Xiao Lou still heard the screams, and many passengers in the No. 4 car were also looking there curiously.

There must be something wrong with Team Yu’s carriage, Xiao Lou immediately turned around and walked there, just when Team Yu sent over to call his tour guide.

Xiao Lou asked as he walked, "What happened?"

Qin Shiyue's face was as pale as paper: "In our regiment, an old man passed away suddenly... God, after such a big accident, I will definitely be fired by the travel agency after I go back!"

Xiao Lou looked at the girl with a look of entanglement, and whispered comforting: "Don't worry, if it is a murder, the responsibility is not with you. The travel agency may reconsider it. I hope you can cooperate with our investigation."

Qin Shiyue's eyes widened in disbelief: "Murder, murder? Didn't Uncle Li have a heart attack?"

Seeing the girl's stunned face, Xiao Lou couldn't help but sympathize. The newly graduated college students took the elderly group to travel carefully and conscientiously all the way. As a result, the group suddenly died. This was not a normal blow to her, and she might go back. You will be punished and lose your job.

Xiao Lou Wen said: "We can't draw a conclusion now, we can only confirm it after we have checked it. Xiao Qin, you first sort out the information of the entire tour group, including the form they filled out when they signed up for the travel agency, and we will ask you to get it later."

Qin Shiyue nodded complicatedly: "Good, good..."

Xiao Lou quickly came to Car No. 6 via the dining car, and he found a group of elderly people panicking around Room 2.

A family of four in room 4 poked out their heads when they heard the movement. Yesterday the 3-year-old child who sucked raisins by mistake asked her milkly, "Mom, what's the matter? Why are the grandparents around there? There is something fun. Yeah, I want to see it too!"

The woman heard the discussion around, as if it was a dead person, her face changed, and she immediately carried the child back: "It's okay, baby, let's not go out, can we watch cartoons in the room, okay?" She closed the door , Obviously don't want to scare the child.

In room 5, a passenger got off the bus yesterday, and Mo Jiaran switched over to sleep.

The noise outside awakened her. The eldest lady was very angry when she got up. She opened the door with a dark face and said loudly: "I made people sleep in the early morning. What is the noise! Can you keep it quiet?! "

An old lady next to him said: "Girl, there is a dead person in Room 2..."

Mo Jiaran's face turned white suddenly, and she immediately turned over and got out of bed, screaming like a frightened cat and ran to Car No. 4, Xiao Lou stopped her and said faintly, "No one is allowed to go."

Mo Jiaran shivered and pointed to Room 2: "My God, there are dead people over there! I don't want to stay in Car No. 6 anymore..."

Xiao Lou opened the door of No. 4 car, smiled and said, "Go in."

Mo Jiaran's face was pale and refused to cooperate.

Xiao Lou said warmly: "Don't be afraid, it's safer to stay in the room."

Hearing Xiao Lou's words, everyone's expressions were a little ugly, and Mo Jiaran reluctantly returned to Room 4.

Xiao Lou turned around, and conveniently locked the door at the junction of the carriages.

Hearing his voice, Yu Hanjiang came out of room 2 tacitly, and said in a low voice: "Car No. 6 is temporarily closed. Please go back to your room. We need to investigate every passenger. Thank you for your cooperation."

An old lady next to him said: "What are you investigating? Lao Li is suddenly gone. Obviously he died of a heart attack, right?"

Someone complained: "What can you find out, do you still have an autopsy?!"

Xiao Lou smiled slightly and looked at him and said, "Yes, we will do an autopsy."

The old man was stunned, his expression terrified.

Xiao Lou Wenyan said: "Don't panic, uncles and aunts, please go back to your room first. The three in Room 2, please wait in the corridor for a while."

He and Yu Hanjiang glanced at each other, nodded to each other, and then walked into Room 2 together, closing the door smoothly, blocking the outside view.

If there is no medical professional among the challengers and cannot judge the cause of Li Zhemin's death, what they should do at this time is to go to car No. 4 and bring the doctor "NC" Jing Weiguang over.

But Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang do not need the help of Doctor Jing-Xiao Lou's on-site post-mortem is more professional than Doctor Jing.

Yu Hanjiang consciously took a step back to make room for Xiao Lou.

Xiao Lou put on a pair of gloves, leaned over and opened the deceased's clothes, checking the corpse with his hands and feet quickly.

Yu Hanjiang reminded: "The people in the tour group just said that Li Zhemin had a bad heart and had undergone heart stent surgery."

Xiao Lou immediately took off the deceased’s pants and saw the traces of the operation on his thigh. He checked and explained: “Stent placement surgery is generally used for coronary artery stenosis in the heart.”

He pointed to the mark on the thigh and said: "You can see here, the deceased's right leg has a surgical scar on the femoral artery. The doctor opened the blood vessel through the femoral artery and pushed the stent into the heart blood vessel from here. This kind of operation is very common. , The success rate is high. When the stent is inserted to open the narrow blood vessel, the blood flow of the patient's heart will return to normal."

Xiao Lou inspected the deceased’s face, pupils, muscles, and skin conditions all over the body, and then concluded: “He did not die suddenly from a heart attack. The corpses of patients who died suddenly from a heart attack will be very obvious, and they are generally dark purple. Red, due to the congestion of a large number of organs and tissues in the body, the body stiffens too fast, and there will be significant scattered bleeding spots on the body. Li Zhemin’s situation does not match."

He carefully observed the location of the deceased’s nails, oral mucosa, and other details, and said: “The possibility of poisoning is not very high.”

It was not a heart attack, nor was it poisoned. There was no trace of stabbing or impact on his body. Li Zhemin's death was almost unknowing and unconscious, and it looked like the natural death of an elderly person in his sleep.

Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly: "Can you guess the cause of death?"

Xiao Lou was silent for a moment, carefully observed around the deceased's belly button and upper arm, and said: "Team Yu, there are many pinholes in his body."

Yu Hanjiang was startled slightly: "Is he taking drugs?"

Xiao Lou shook his head, "Maybe it was left by the injection." He opened the door and asked the three old men at the door: "Uncles, does Li Zhemin have any other medical history besides heart disease? For example... Diabetes?"

The three of them glanced at each other, and one of them suddenly said, "It seems there are! Three highs, high blood pressure, high blood lipids, and high blood sugar. As Lao Li mentioned before, he has three highs and he wants to eat vegetarian food or something."

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang: "Search for Li Zhemin's luggage."

Yu Hanjiang nodded, and took Li Zhemin's bag from the luggage rack-a few magazines and some medicine were in the bag.

This old Li is simply a medicine jar, there are more than a dozen bottles of medicine in the bag. Yu Hanjiang didn't know what these medicines were for, so they all fell on the bed and showed them to Xiao Lou.

Xiao Lou introduced to Team Yu as he watched: "This bottle is an antihypertensive medicine. These two bottles are used to soften and dilate blood vessels. This is a gastric mucosal protective agent; nitroglycerin is a common emergency medicine for coronary heart disease; this bottle is for acute treatment. Diarrhea, this bottle is cold and fever..."

As Xiaolou spoke out the function of the medicine bottle by bottle, the old people around were dumbfounded.

An old man said in shock: "Are the current flight attendants so good? Know all medicine?"

Xiao Lou did not explain. He looked at Yu Hanjiang and whispered in his ear: "There is no insulin."

Yu Hanjiang understood and closed the door of the room, shutting the curious old people outside.

Xiao Lou lowered his voice and said: "Patients with diabetes, when traveling for a long time, must carry insulin with them, and use insulin to control blood sugar on time every day."

He turned his head and glanced at the pile of medicines lying on the bed, and said, “In Li Zhemin’s bag, there are a mess of medicines, like antihypertensive drugs and vasodilators, which he must take every day; other cures for diarrhea, headaches and colds. Yes, it should be used for spares when traveling far away. However, the most important insulin is not in the bag, which is absolutely unreasonable."

Yu Hanjiang didn't know enough about medical knowledge. He couldn't help but ask: "Is it stolen by the murderer? Can insulin kill people?"

Xiao Lou nodded: "Come on, insulin is a medicine that saves people. It solves many diabetic patients' problems. It can lower blood sugar. But once insulin is injected too much, there will be problems with glucose metabolism in the body, and blood sugar will be exhausted and drop to a very low level. The brain tissue will be irreversibly damaged, leading to coma, fainting, and unconscious death in sleep."

Yu Hanjiang's pupils shrank suddenly.

From this point of view, Li Zhemin's death is obviously related to the overdose of insulin injection.

Fortunately, Xiao Lou was professional enough to quickly determine the cause of death—a few pinholes around the belly button and upper arm, indicating that Li Zhemin usually injects insulin for a long time to control blood sugar; however, the insulin in his backpack was gone; Li Zhemin died peacefully and died. I haven't had any struggle before, echoing the reasoning that I was injected with a large amount of insulin in my dream, and my blood sugar dropped to the limit, which led to syncope.

Yu Hanjiang couldn't help thinking that if he brought a forensic doctor through the barrier, the efficiency was high, and the cause of death was guessed in less than half an hour.

He looked at Xiao Lou appreciatively and said, "Since the murderer injected a lot of insulin into Li Zhemin, it is very likely that the insulin Li Zhemin carried has been used up. In order to avoid being noticed that something is wrong, the best way for the murderer is to Dispose of all the insulin vials and syringes."

The amount of insulin he carried was limited, and he had to inject it all at once to kill Li Zhemin. If his insulin bottle is suddenly emptied, the baggage search will surely lead to suspicion-Team Yu's speculation is reasonable, and the murderer must have disposed of the tools of the crime.

Xiao Lou said, "Shall we search the trash can?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded.

The two walked out the door together, went to the end of the carriage to open the trash can, and endured the strange smell of food and quickly searched.

The entire garbage bag was searched, but no traces of medicine bottles and syringes were found.

Xiao Lou asked in a low voice: "Did the murderer threw these things into other cars? But in this case, if you happen to run into other cars who go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, they will leave a handle instead."

Yu Hanjiang frowned and said: "The murderer is so cautious, he shouldn't rush to throw garbage in other cars he doesn't know."

Suddenly, he noticed that there was a lunch box next to it. The box was tightly closed. On the surface, the person who threw the garbage was more hygienic. The lunch box was tightly covered to prevent the uneaten soup from flowing out.

But as Yu Hanjiang opened the box, Xiao Lou was surprised to find—

There was a syringe in the lunch box, and several insulin vials that had been evacuated.

The two looked at each other-through an autopsy and a medical history, their reasoning about the homicide technique was all correct.

Next is the time to find the murderer!
