Chapter 167 In My Name 03 Accidental Death
Chapter 3
Lu Changfeng said: "It is definitely useless to investigate blindly. The truth will not float on the surface. We still have to investigate the people around the deceased and look for clues."
Yue Fanglin agreed and said, "Once the autopsy report comes out, we will go and conduct further investigations."
Ouyang Ji listened to their discussion and said, "Perhaps we can contact the relatives and friends of the deceased to come to the police station to take a statement."
Yue Fanglin shook his head and rejected Ouyang's idea: "Shi Minjie is a university professor, and his relatives and friends are not much worse than him. Their time is much more valuable than ours. If we ask them to come here for investigation, the time wasted in going back and forth is enough for them to do many things. It is better for us to go to the university to investigate ourselves. On-site investigation can give us a more comprehensive understanding."
Ouyang nodded immediately, "Then I'll go get the medical examiner's autopsy report."
Not long after, Ouyang returned with the autopsy report and handed it to the serious crime team: "The cause of death was cardiac arrest during swimming, and he was not treated in time."
Yue Fanglin was puzzled: "The deceased had heart disease and high blood pressure. Logically, he should try to avoid swimming, which is a relatively energy-intensive sport. Why did he go swimming?"
Zhou Yu said: "When I checked his personal information, I found that Shi Minjie is a person who loves sports. He is very good at swimming, long-distance running, cycling, basketball and badminton. There are many reports about him participating in these sports on the Internet. He also often participates in college marathon leagues."
"Logically speaking, a person who loves sports so much should have excellent physical fitness. Are you sure that the cause of his death was an accident and not caused by other reasons?" Lu Changfeng also found it incredible.
Ouyang Ji also seemed a little embarrassed: "The forensic doctor of our city bureau is also a remarkable figure, and he is ranked in the top ten forensic doctors in the country. I think there should be no problem with his autopsy report."
The autopsy report clearly stated that the cause of death was cardiac arrest caused by swimming, and there was no possibility of death caused by external force.
Yue Fanglin leaned against the corner of the table with his arms folded, looking at the autopsy report in Lu Changfeng's hand: "Our police force has not leaked the Judge's mark to the public, and there are not many eyewitnesses who have come into contact with Judge's cases. They may not be able to remember this mark. How do you explain the appearance of this mark in the swimming pool?"
Jing Jue: "Maybe the judge originally wanted to kill the other party, but found that the old man was already dead, so he threw Peugeot into the swimming pool. Although he did not succeed in killing him, he still hopes that our police will pay attention to this case and investigate the darkness behind the case."
Jing Jue looked at Lu Changfeng. Whether to continue investigating was up to Lu Changfeng and Yue Fanglin to decide.
Yue Fanglin said: "We still have to investigate. Now that the case is in our hands, we should investigate it thoroughly and give us an explanation. If the deceased really did nothing, and is a good person, and has no major problems, then we can all rest assured. If the deceased really did something shameful, we have found out the truth."
Seeing that the serious case team was determined to investigate, Ouyang asked them: "Do you want to apply to your superiors? After all, the deceased is a university professor, and the cause of death is currently an accident. If you rashly investigate university professors, it will easily cause a stir."
Yue Fanglin said: "We will investigate secretly, and it will not affect your public disclosure of the true cause of death. The death of a university professor cannot be concealed. Whatever we find out is what it is. We must seek truth from facts."
Although Yue Fanglin was determined to continue the investigation, he did not act rashly. Instead, he reported the matter to Director Yu and explained the reasons for continuing the investigation.
The case is now stuck at a stage where it cannot be moved forward. If there is no sign from the judge, according to the current process, the family of the deceased can go to the police station to collect the body and then proceed with the case closing process.
Lu Changfeng and Yue Fanglin both felt that this matter was not that simple. It was unlikely that the Judge's mark would appear in the swimming pool for no reason.
But I can also understand the hesitation of the superiors. If they investigate a university professor just for the mark of a judge, it will indeed damage the reputation of the school and the professor himself if he is caught and used by someone with ulterior motives.
About half an hour later, Lu Changfeng received a call back from Yu Chu, saying that he had to check as soon as possible and not in a high-profile manner.
Yue Fanglin conveyed the intention of his superiors, which was to get to the bottom of the matter as quickly as possible without causing too much noise, to prevent people with ulterior motives from using their investigation to create unfavorable public opinion before the truth was found out, and to pay attention to reducing the negative impact on the school.
After several people discussed, they decided to let the four judges investigate and not use the police force of the Municipal Bureau for the time being. This would reduce the targets of the operation to the greatest extent possible.
Ouyang Ji was in a difficult position to ask to join the investigation of the serious crime team. After all, his superiors had already asked him not to make too much noise.
Shi Minjie's wife Lan Qi is the person closest to him and should be the person who knows Shi Minjie best in the world. The serious crime team is waiting for Lan Qi's arrival at the police station.
Lan Qi arrived at the Municipal Bureau at around 11 o'clock in the evening and went straight to the forensic room to see her husband.
Upon learning of her husband's death, Lan Qi rushed back immediately and was in a bad mood all the way.
Lan Qi is surrounded by her students.
The female police officer from the Municipal Bureau helped to comfort her, and after Lanqi's emotions stabilized, the serious crime team intervened to talk to her.
Lan Qi was a little confused about this: "Didn't they say he died accidentally?"
"The autopsy results show that the death was indeed accidental, but there are other suspicious points in the case, and the family members need to cooperate with our police investigation."
Lan Qi wiped away her tears and tried to calm down. "It's my duty to cooperate with your police investigation. Just ask whatever you want to know."
Yue Fanglin first asked about something that puzzled her: "Does your husband Shi Minjie know that he suffers from heart disease and high blood pressure?"
Lan Qi nodded: "He knows. He had high blood pressure about ten years ago, and the heart disease was discovered in the past few years."
Lu Changfeng: "Can he still swim in this condition?"
"Of course." Lan Qi said, "Although he has high blood pressure and coronary heart disease, they are not particularly serious. He usually takes medicine to control his condition very well. In addition, he has been exercising well in recent years and his health is not bad. The doctor also said that he can do moderate exercise within a safe range, but he just needs to pay attention to the time and intensity of exercise."
Lu Changfeng carefully recalled the case materials he had read. There were indeed antihypertensive drugs and drugs for treating coronary heart disease in the room where Shi Minjie lived, but the autopsy report did not mention the presence of these two drug ingredients in the deceased's body.
Lu Changfeng asked Lan Qi: "Are you familiar with your husband's medicine?"
Lan Qi said familiar.
"Then what are the criteria for him to take medicine, such as before or after meals? How many times a day? Should he take medicine before exercising? Should he assess his physical condition?"
Lan Qi said: "Antihypertensive drugs are usually taken once in the morning or before going to bed. My husband usually takes it in the morning. His heart disease medicine is taken once before going to bed to avoid sudden death at night. Usually, no additional medication is needed before exercise. Doctors usually recommend that it is best to measure blood pressure before exercise and again after exercise. He also has a sports bracelet to monitor his heart rate frequently. Exercise is not recommended when the heart rate is abnormal or the body is obviously unwell."
"My husband can swim, which means she must have assessed his physical condition and found he meets the conditions for swimming."
Lu Changfeng made a new discovery and immediately sent a message to Zhou Yu, asking Zhou Yu to tell Ouyang Ji to conduct another monitoring.
The deceased died after lunch. According to Lan Qi, the deceased should have taken antihypertensive drugs after breakfast.
Even if the coronary heart disease drugs are taken before bedtime and have been metabolized, it is reasonable to take antihypertensive drugs after breakfast, and antihypertensive drugs generally want to be completely metabolized.
They are all around six to twenty-four hours, and some are even longer.
The antihypertensive drug used by Shi Minjie was also used by Lu Changfeng's former master, and it takes 24 hours to be completely metabolized.
However, there were antihypertensive drugs in the room, but none were found in Shi Minjie's body. Why is that?
Lu Changfeng asked Lan Qi: "Will Shi Minjie forget to take his blood pressure medication?"
Lan Qi said: "Normally no, because the watch he uses will remind him to take medicine regularly, and he will punch in. If he does not take medicine on that day, the sports watch will keep reminding him, and the app is also linked to my and my daughter's accounts. We can remotely monitor whether he takes medicine on time and play a supervisory role. If he does not take medicine within a certain period of time, we will receive a message notification, but I did not receive a message notification saying that he did not take medicine today."
"Then can I understand that he took medicine today?" Lu Changfeng asked.
Lan Qi said: "If you want to understand it this way, then it's not wrong."
"Would it be convenient for us to check today's medication records?" Lu Changfeng asked.
Lan Qi opened her mobile phone and entered the health management app to check the check-in and medication records.
At 9:17 in the morning, Shi Minjie recorded his medication records using the sports bracelet he wore.
Lu Changfeng asked: "How many people know that he needs to take medicine?"
"Many people know about it. After all, he has been with his colleagues and students for a longer time, so he should know it more or less."
Lu Changfeng was confused. When he opened the app, it showed that he had taken medicine today, but why were no antihypertensive drugs detected in his body?
Lu Changfeng asked Zhou Yu to count how much medicine was left in the bottle. Antihypertensive drugs are prescription drugs and are usually prescribed by a doctor.
The drug purchase record will definitely show the time, so we can judge based on the medication situation, how much medicine he has taken from the day the medicine was prescribed to today, so as to determine whether he has taken the medicine.
Punching in does not mean that you have taken the medicine. It is possible that you punched in but forgot to take the medicine.
But no matter what, no drug ingredients were found in the body, which means that the patient has not taken any medicine.
Lan Qi is a university professor, so she is naturally very smart. She asked back, "Is it because he didn't take his medicine that this happened?"
Lu Changfeng asked another question: "How is your husband's memory?"
"Very good, very good, I can even say I have a photographic memory."
Lu Changfeng: "Subjectively speaking, it is unlikely that he would forget to take his medicine, right?"
"Yes." Lan Qi said, "We use this to remind him to take medicine because we are afraid that he may forget the time due to work and fail to take medicine in time. Normally, if I am at home, I will prepare it and put it next to him, but when I am not there, he has to prepare it himself. He has a lot of students, and sometimes he starts to study and discuss topics with students after dinner, so it is easy to miss the time."
