Chapter 193 Two toxins
A female corpse lay lying in front of the door, with a half-digested dinner that had been vomited next to it. Her pale profile, and a woman's wallet fell on the ground not far away.
Annick assisted the forensic doctor in examining Eva's body. Annick noticed that the lady seemed to have put on her clothes in a hurry, which revealed a lot of her scenery.
"The smell is really strong. Are there any toxins that can make people sick to their stomachs?" Annick asked.
"Usually it's a toxin that needs to be swallowed. It hurts the stomach and causes people to vomit it out. But this corpse is a bit strange. Look at her right hand. There is a hole in the index finger."
The forensic doctor raised Eva's right hand, and there was indeed a puncture wound on the index finger.
"Then it looks like Eva died after toxin was injected into her blood."
"I think so. The wallet over there has been checked, and there is a simple mechanism made of cork inside. I think this is how Eva was poisoned."
Annick picked up the wallet and opened it carefully. In addition to some cosmetics, there was a small mirror and some change. As well as a small device that looked quite dangerous.
"Give me a pair of gloves, Mr. Forensic, I'm afraid I'll prick myself."
"Give."
Torre helped hand over a pair of gloves.
After putting on gloves, Annick gently took out a cork from his wallet. Several steel needles were passed through the cork, and it was covered with pitch-black oily toxin.
I got closer and smelled it, but there was no smell.
"Oil, odorless, highly toxic. And it shouldn't be difficult to get." Annick's mind was searching for the remaining knowledge.
Cyanide? There is no bitter almond smell.
Arsenic? But it's not that poisonous.
Neurotoxins? Annick thought for a while, this world should not have such advanced technology. It was probably nicotine.
"Guys, I think Eva died of nicotine poisoning."
"Nicotine? You mean this?"
Captain Parker took out the cigarette in his pocket and gestured.
"That's it. It can be purified from common tobacco, and the method is not complicated." Annick affirmed. "Of course, in order to ensure that my guess is correct, I suggest that the cork be tested for residual toxins.
Enough for an experiment."
"You don't have to look to see if the death was caused by extraordinary abilities?" Torre reminded.
"The death is very similar to poison poisoning, but as you said, Mr. Torre, let's do it again."
Annick thought that I wouldn't pay for the correction, so he just waited for you to open his mouth.
Unexpectedly, there was no reaction on Eva's hands, but two large handprints appeared on her chest.
"Well, I wonder if this Ms. Eva and Mr. Cornell have a super-friendship relationship. And then it happens that this Mr. Cornell is also a believer of the Mother Goddess. Finally, it happens that this Mr. Cornell
Sir is still an extraordinary person.”
After listening to Annick's brief narration, Captain Torre didn't react. It was Captain Parker who understood what he meant.
"You mean the gunman Jeffrey was killed by Cornell, and then Eva had a super friendly behavior with Cornell last night? Cornell also wanted to kill Eva and set up a delayed death for her.
Skill."
"That's pretty much what it means. But it's strange that Eva died of poisoning. How about Mr. Cornell?"
From Annick's perspective, he could only see Connell lying on a sofa with his back to him, leaving only half of his head exposed above the back of the sofa.
Captain Parker walked over, took a look and replied.
"I don't know about anything else, but at least you guessed it right about super-friendship behavior."
Annick was very happy when he heard this. Is there such a bloody plot? He hurriedly walked in and saw that this gentleman had a few red lip marks on his neck and was sitting on the sofa naked from the waist down.
His expression was a bit strange, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was enjoying something. His eyes were closed tightly again, and the wrinkles on his forehead were prominent again.
Cornell's hand was on the heart of his upper body, and his shirt was torn.
"This, I'm afraid it won't be so fun." This was the first thought that came to Annick's mind when he saw this situation.
"It's so good?" Captain Torre seemed to understand this time. "You want to say that Cornell was too high when he had a super friendly act with Eva, and then suffered a heart attack?"
The captain is quite experienced in this area.
"No, it's just a possibility. I remember these two bottles of wine were here last night when I came to call Professor Deidara. If it is not used to deal with Cornell but to deal with Deidara, it makes sense.
Already."
"Who is Professor Deidara? I feel more and more confused." Sheriff Torre took off his hat and asked, rubbing his head.
"A professor who attended the banquet here last night seems to have been pestered by Ms. Eva recently. At last Professor Deidara asked me to help him rescue him from Ms. Eva's gentle land. If I didn't help last night
If so, the person sitting here today may be Professor Deidara."
After Annick finished explaining, Captain Torre understood. He asked in reply: "You mean that Ms. Eva's target was Professor Deidara at the beginning, and Cornell was just a substitute?"
"Maybe it was an accidental injury. There should be no residue at the scene other than the poisonous needle. Cornell's death pretending was not like nicotine poisoning. He had a heart attack. Either the wine he drank was poisonous, or he chose extraordinary power.
Committed suicide."
Combined with the hotel owner's death disguise, this is somewhat similar.
"Then take these two bottles for testing?" Captain Torre asked.
Annick looked around and then said:
"Normally, it would be enough to just test the wine, because the champagne has not been touched. But I feel like something is wrong, so let's get them all tested. By the way, if it was Eva who poisoned her, then the poison is not in this room or her body.
, you think that’s a good place to dispose of the poison.”
"Thrown on the street." Captain Torre replied in a very thoughtless manner.
"In the women's bathroom, if it's in a paper bag, it's probably been flushed into the sewer. I can only pray that it's in a bottle." Captain Parker gave a reliable answer.
"Captain Torre, I would like to trouble you to arrange for someone to check the ladies' bathroom again. I want to continue to look at the body of Mr. Cornell, maybe I can find something."
"No problem. If we solve the case before the little black man intervenes, I think the credit will be at least half of yours."
Torre left happily. The smile that raised the corners of his mouth was a concealment of his true happiness.
"Captain, please ask the maids if they saw any suspicious persons approaching this house last night."
"no problem."
The forensic doctor and himself were left, and the forensic doctor was picking up Eva's body. After all, the dead also need dignity.
Annick was carefully examining Connell's whole body. His clothes were still the same as the ones he saw last night, and his pants were down to his knees.
