Chapter 146: The Prison of the World
Dr. Dot was wearing pajamas, with hair as messy as a bird's nest. He looked at me and Chief Harris with bloodshot eyes, and his tone was filled with uncontrollable anger.
"Who is so cruel! You must tell me!"
Sheriff Harris shook his head helplessly and looked at Dr. Dot: "I'm sorry, there were no witnesses when Gotz met his misfortune. Only Marcus, who came later, knew about it. And in his description..."
Chief Harris turned his attention to me sitting on the edge and gestured to continue what he said.
"It's an invisible creature! An invisible creature attacked Gotz! It should be larger than a cat or dog, smaller than a leopard, and has extremely strong jumping ability. It may even be able to fly short distances!"
The details kept emerging in my mind. I closed my eyes and recalled the feeling at that time, "It has a pair of sharp claws and cannot walk on two legs. The tail may be a hard bone and not covered with feathers... maybe... it may have a
It has a layer of plastic-like tough skin, moves very quickly at night, and is good at biting prey with its canine teeth..."
This bizarre creature is beyond my knowledge. I can only use various inappropriate metaphors and vague descriptions to describe it. But in the eyes of outsiders, this behavior seems like I am trying my best to make it up.
It's a lie...
Dr. Dot interrupted me dissatisfied: "Marcus, your statement is simply not true! The creature you mentioned has invisibility and gliding capabilities, and combines the agility of a leopard, the hunting characteristics of a falcon, and the hunting characteristics of a mastiff.
There are even shadows of insect exoskeletons, such cross-species creatures cannot exist in nature at all!"
Just as I was about to defend myself, Dr. Dot interrupted me and asked a question that made both me and Sheriff Harris stunned.
"You can doubt my clinical medical level, but don't doubt my basic theoretical knowledge in medical school." Dr. Dot's eyes flashed with irritation, "Such a wound can never be caused by the creatures you made up!"
He stood up and said emotionally: "Getz had three comminuted fractures on his body, severe bone dislocations in his legs and hips, and even caused shock to internal organs, causing multiple internal bleeding!"
"What!" I looked at him in shock, "But the injuries on his body..."
"The bite marks all over the body surface were blocked near the muscle tissue, and the bleeding on the body surface was quickly locked by the muscles. Even if the injury was twice as severe, it would not kill him!"
Doctor Dot prepared my rhetorical question and said irritably: "It's unforgivable! I will never forgive someone for trampling on life like this! Can you imagine? In this seemingly peaceful town, Gotz received a kind of cat-and-mouse attack.
Such malicious torture!”
"Those wounds were left by Goetz when he tried to escape and struggled to resist again and again. The murderer broke his bones and beat his organs bit by bit, hoping to see him lose his life, courage, and life.
opportunity to go down, but don’t kill him directly.”
"As a doctor, I will never allow anyone to trample on life like this! Sheriff, Marcus, you must tell me which bastard did it!"
I didn’t expect that Dote, who was usually keen on using me for human experiments, would be so filled with righteous indignation. What was even more unexpected was that Gotz’s body, covered in water, grass and silt, was actually attacked so severely!
Fortunately, Gotz's body was very strong, so I carried him down the mountain without causing any internal injuries. Otherwise, the kidneys and liver would rupture and bleed, and a person's name could be taken away within ten minutes.
"Doctor, I really don't know what happened. When I got there, Gotz had already collapsed in the mud." I couldn't give the answer that Doctor Dot wanted, so I could only hold on as best I could.
Say it your own way.
Seeing that neither Chief Harris nor I could answer, Dr. Dot took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was too excited..."
"No, Dot, you are right, this kind of thing really shouldn't happen here." Chief Harris said in a deep voice.
Dr. Dot nodded gratefully: "As a doctor, I can also play a role as a forensic doctor. I want to tell you my thoughts. If the wounds on his body were animals, only the collision of a mad bull elephant and a galloping buffalo could
It can be done. But as a human being, as long as you hold a blunt weapon of sufficient weight, you can achieve similar effects."
"It can only be said that human beings have great talents in destruction. The mud and water plants on his body also prove that someone wanted to drown him! He must have died after attacking and beating Gotz, thinking that he was pretending to be dead.
, and prepared to throw him into the lake to hide his body. But unexpectedly, Gotz regained consciousness in the water, climbed to the shore, and was rescued by Marcus!"
Dr. Dot's analysis is very logical. He explains the crime method and the crime process just right, and connects Gotz's experiences in a reasonable way.
Normally, I would definitely choose this explanation as the truth.
But last night, I experienced the incident of fighting invisible creatures. Only I know the details that were abandoned by Doctor Dot. They are the only part of the matter that can be confirmed at present. The truth in his mouth is illusory!
It's a pity that only I could accept such a truth at that time. My defense was stern, but it was hard to tell whether it was true or not. Not to mention outsiders, even Gray, who met me on the way, wouldn't easily believe it, right?
But my memory, my reason, and the bite marks on my arm armor all remind me that this is not a dream. The victim is still lying unconscious in the hospital bed, and everyone needs the truth.
"Dr. Dot, thank you for your analysis. I will launch an investigation immediately and will definitely bring the murderer to justice! But for now, Gotz has to rely on you to take care of him. Is it possible for him to regain consciousness now?" Sheriff Harris
asked.
Doctor Dot shook his head: "Getz's injuries were both internal and external. When he came to the hospital last night, he was already in a state of shock. The so-called shock means that the human body gives up most of its functions to ensure that the whole body does not die. After rescue
Now the heartbeat and pulse are gradually stabilizing, but recovery of consciousness is still unknown."
"Will he remain unconscious?" I asked.
"It's hard to say. If the human body repairs itself to a certain limit, it will cancel this self-protection and regain consciousness. But how long it will take, whether it will be three days and five days, or a year and a half, is unpredictable."
At this point, Dr. Dot sighed: "Then I won't bother you. I want to go back and check on Gotz's condition. I'll leave the rest to you!"
After saying that, the doctor left the police station. Only Chief Harris and I were left looking at each other in the huge police station.
I made a lot of determination and asked the question I had buried for a long time: "Officer...can I ask a question?"
"What's up?"
Harris's big nose is particularly conspicuous.
