Chapter 585: PS: Today three updates, the third update will be after midnight!

PS: Today there will be three updates; the third update will be after midnight!

In the Old Karuizawa villa district, at the scene, Uesugi Muneyuki stood not far from the corpse; dozens of police officers had already rushed over, a large group of officers in patrol uniforms had set up a police cordon, guarding several key positions, refusing entry to anyone.

However, Japanese people actually also like to watch the excitement; the more seriously the police treat it, the more Japanese onlookers gather, especially after hearing that Uesugi Muneyuki was at the scene, the atmosphere in Karuizawa boiled over.

God's Hand at the scene? Hell yeah!

At this time Minami Ojou-sama had already called Ikeda Erena, Ishihara Mikoto, and Saito Asuka to hurry over and help; Erena is a professional bodyguard, Ishihara Mikoto is Uesugi Muneyuki's forensic assistant, as for Asuka, the girl was coming no matter what, she had long wanted to personally witness Uesugi-sensei's on-site investigation once!

Uesugi Muneyuki also sent a message to Mai Xuejie without changing expression, then turned his gaze to the corpse on the ground.

This is a homicide!

And the killer had absolutely no intention of concealing it; he simply wanted this woman named Yamashita Mizuki to be discovered, otherwise no matter what he would have thought of ways to cover it up — burying it, dismembering and boiling it, chemical treatment, there are plenty of methods.

Friends who frequently kill and hide corpses should know, corpse stench is an extremely, extremely, extremely awesome smell; besides being extremely intense and lingering for a long time without dissipating, it also has super strong penetrating power; many corpses even if filled with cement, the stench will still emanate.

Here I will use cement as an example to briefly explain why the stench escapes.

Ordinary cement before drying has fluidity; before final setting, evaporation of water from the corpse surface and escape of decomposition gases will form open pores from inside to outside.

These pores are very small, micron-level, but the quantity is very large.

Ten hours later, even if the cement hardens, the pores remain, becoming channels for corpse stench gas to escape.

So, if you friends happen to encounter the problem of being unable to dispose of a corpse, you can refer to the following approach:

After cement final setting, use epoxy resin to seal the cement block, brush 3—4 layers, remember to roughen the surface.

When pouring cement, remember to hollow out the corpse's internal organs first, let the cement completely fill and cover the opened abdominal cavity; silicate cement has very high alkalinity, bacteria inside the human body cannot survive under direct contact.

If there is enough reinforced concrete, you can use a large amount of reinforced concrete to backfill, sealed extremely tight.

If conditions really don't permit, you can repeatedly flip the cement; the lower cement's density is usually higher, pores fewer; of course you must vibrate and compact while continuously flipping.

Did you learn it? (laugh)

And just when Uesugi Muneyuki sent the notification, a huge storm also kicked up outside.

The person in charge of the villa district's property management company arrived at the scene almost scrambling; his forehead was covered in cold sweat, he kept wiping with a handkerchief.

"Th-this... how is this possible — we have patrols every day!" he explained to the first local officer to arrive, voice carrying a sob: "This villa is registered under Mr. Kimura's property, but he hasn't come for a long time — we, we really didn't know someone illegally broke in —"

His panic stemmed from dual pressure: one, being unable to answer to the owner; two, if this spreads, it will deal a devastating blow to the reputation of the entire high-end Karuizawa villa district, housing prices and rents could plummet.

Further out, ordinary tourists and vacationers blocked by the police cordon discussed animatedly, unease permeating the air.

"Heard it was charcoal-burning suicide?"

"Doesn't look like it? Look at all these police, even big shots from Tokyo were alarmed!"

"So scary, the villa we're staying in isn't far from here, won't there be danger at night?"

"The deceased seems to be a very young girl — why would she come to a place like this?"

"Uesugi came too, for the Metropolitan Police to dispatch him, it's definitely a major case!"

Rumors mutated and fermented rapidly in the crowd, from "suicide" to "crime of passion" to "serial killer infiltrates Karuizawa", panic spreading silently like a virus.

And Yamato Keibu at the scene also asked with considerable interest: "Doctor Uesugi, we respect you very much, but can you explain in detail why you could tell at a glance that the deceased was not suicide or accidental death, but homicide?"

Yamato Keibu's expression was quite serious: "Look, this Miss Yamashita Mizuki possesses all the elements of suicide — a suicide note, death by carbon monoxide from burning charcoal, lost hope in life, and had to commit illegal entry to survive; under these circumstances, a suicide conclusion is very reasonable, right?"

"If judging purely from the surface, that is indeed true." Uesugi Muneyuki nodded lightly: "But the moment I saw her, I knew she wasn't a suicide."

"The deceased is a young female, but obvious urinary incontinence can be seen on the corpse." Uesugi Muneyuki first pointed at the urine stains on the corpse's crotch.

Yamato Keibu was stunned for a moment, revealing a "so what" expression; as mentioned earlier, the female urethra is originally short, urine-holding ability is poor, during death or asphyxiation muscles relax, urinary incontinence easily occurs; could urinary incontinence still be related to suicide vs homicide?

As if seeing through his thoughts, Uesugi Muneyuki nodded calmly: "It is indeed related."

"Hah?!" The surrounding police all gasped in surprise.

"Because compared to males, females, especially Japanese females, pay great attention to their own appearance and — their appearance after death, so before suicide they would definitely urinate; therefore in this kind of acute carbon monoxide poisoning suicide situation, incontinence is very unlikely to occur." Uesugi Muneyuki said calmly.

"I see, there's actually this layer of reason inside." Yamato Keibu nodded blankly, originally wanted to say you understand women quite well, but thinking of Uesugi Muneyuki's nickname being Pervert of the Metropolitan Police, and this being a serious homicide scene right now, he said nothing.

"Severe urinary incontinence has the following two possibilities: one, the deceased took alcohol and sleeping pills before suicide; two, she didn't have time to urinate before suicide or was killed by someone; the former makes no sense, because a person in a stupor or drunken state cannot commit suicide."

Uesugi Muneyuki turned his gaze to the alcohol on the table, gave a meaningful look at the scene: "The latter suicide also makes no sense."

"Besides that, there is another reason: if a Japanese female truly decides to commit suicide, then no matter her age, she will almost certainly put on exquisite makeup for herself." Uesugi Muneyuki said softly: "This is my experience from seeing countless suicide corpses over these years."

It was also about this time that Erena, Mikoto, and Asuka arrived; Erena still held a cup of California sunshine orange juice sun-dried for 180 days; the moment she saw there was a case and a corpse she quickly entered state, eyes shining as she stepped forward briskly, habitually standing beside Uesugi Muneyuki.

And Ishihara Mikoto was extremely speechless, wearing a mournful face.

Muneyuki, you bastard! Why is there a murder case wherever you go? I still wanted to have a nice vacation! These two shares of salary for being your assistant are really too hard to earn! Can I resign?

Uesugi Muneyuki understood Mikoto-nee's meaning, looked at her with amusement, signaling it was merely coincidence.

Only run into two or three a year, and that's called many?

There's a place called Mita-cho in Tokyo, over 600 murder cases a year, over 1000 dead, and life still goes on as normal?

As for Asuka, the girl ran in cutely and excitedly, smelled the corpse stench and couldn't help pinching her nose, hid behind her Minami-nee showing only a tiny bird head, watching the corpse curiously and excitedly, thinking she could finally see it for real!

Uesugi-sensei! I'll cheer for you right here! The girl waved her little fist, then quietly concealed herself.

At the same time.

"Young female corpse discovered in Karuizawa villa, suspected homicide."

This news, like a slippery venomous snake, at astonishing speed silently drilled into Karuizawa's most core forbidden zone — the vicinity of the Imperial estate where the Imperial Family's vacation residence is located.

Inside the Imperial Household Agency Karuizawa Temporary Office, the atmosphere was heavy enough to wring water from; attendants hurried, yet strove to make not a sound.

Director of the Imperial Household Agency Maeda Toshisuke sat upright in the Japanese-style office; wisps of incense smoke curled before him, but what he smelled now was only a faint, barely perceptible scent of crisis in the Karuizawa air outside the window.

"His Majesty — has already heard." His voice was low, speaking to the Vice Minister beside him, yet his sharp gaze swept over the figures of Imperial Police on strengthened alert outside the window. "Right at our doorstep, such an ominous event occurs. Absolutely cannot let any filthy sound disturb the Imperial heart."

"Yes!"

——————————————————————

"Call the Nagano Prefecture Police Headquarters Chief." His command was clear, brooking no doubt, "Express the Imperial Household Agency's high concern. This case must be resolved swiftly, thoroughly, and quietly. Karuizawa's tranquility must not be destroyed. The Imperial Family's peace, even more, cannot tolerate the slightest disturbance."

The order was swiftly executed.

This call will not be recorded in any public document, but its weight is enough to make every nerve in the Nagano Prefecture Police Headquarters tense to the limit.

At this moment, a confidential secretary entered lightly on foot and softly added a piece of information just verified: "Director, it has been confirmed. The first to arrive at the scene and conduct the preliminary investigation were Chief Medical Examiner Uesugi Muneyuki of the Metropolitan Police Department and Superintendent Watanabe Minami."

Maeda Toshisuke's usually calm face twitched almost imperceptibly.

A hint of relief, almost imperceptible, passed over his furrowed brows.

"Doctor Uesugi — and Superintendent Watanabe?" he murmured: "Yeah, they're right next door — this is truly — a blessing in misfortune."

"Superintendent Watanabe Eiji, Your Excellency." Maeda Toshisuke picked up the phone again.

Tokyo, Metropolitan Police Commissioner's Office.

Watanabe Eiji was still on the personnel list; the personnel shake-up from the bulletproof vest corruption case at the beginning of the year had only just ended, and he was still pondering how to adjust personnel when the phone rang.

Upon hearing it was a call from the Imperial Household Agency, he thought it was about an award! But it turned out to be a murder case!

How could my prospective son-in-law encounter a murder case even while on vacation?

However, hearing that Uesugi had already made a judgment, Watanabe Eiji thought this was another opportunity to show off, ah, ah ha!

How come everything in the Metropolitan Police Department is always so awesome?

After hanging up, he almost paused, then directly pressed the internal communications key: "Immediately, in my name, issue an official document to the Nagano Prefecture Police Headquarters, stating that the Metropolitan Police Department, at the request of the Imperial Household Agency and the National Police Agency, will dispatch the Special Mission Unit and relevant experts (specifying Chief Medical Examiner Uesugi Muneyuki) to assist the investigation, and requesting the Nagano Prefecture Police to provide full cooperation and support for permission rights."

Almost simultaneously, the director's office of the National Police Agency was also brightly lit.

As the central organ commanding the national police, they received pressure from multiple directions.

Director Tamaru personally called Watanabe Eiji, his tone "suggestive" rather than commanding, but the weight was greater: "Eiji-kun, please leave the Karuizawa matter to the Metropolitan Police Department. Doctor Uesugi is a national treasure; with him, we can rest assured. The National Police Agency will coordinate all necessary resources; this case must be solved at the highest standard and fastest speed, must not cause a social incident, especially must not affect — the tranquility over there."

In the entire Japanese state machinery related to public security, the highest power nodes were all activated at this moment; pressure traveled along the invisible power chain, layer by layer, finally focusing on the villa in Karuizawa where the corpse was found, and focusing on that young forensic genius.

Meanwhile, Maeda Toshisuke here also faced immense pressure.

Because soon, the Chief Steward of the Imperial Palace brought a piece of news that made one's scalp Stopped: "His Majesty summons.

A murder case has occurred near the Imperial Palace, and the other party, in a casual, gentle tone, expressed the wish to 'know the specific situation at the scene,' even an Imperial Princess wanted to go to the scene to see.

For the Director of the Imperial Household Agency, Maeda Toshisuke, this demand was no less than hearing a thunderclap.

He immediately bowed deeply: "Your subject understands, will handle it properly."

Going to the scene was of course completely impossible, but the desire to 'know' about the strange case happening nearby is entirely reasonable.

After leaving the imperial presence, Maeda Toshisuke's expression instantly became extremely solemn.

Oh no, this matter has already reached the ears of heaven!

It must be dealt with as soon as possible; otherwise, not only will it alarm the imperial carriage, but the duty will be considered botched, and worse, it will affect the dignity of the state!

"Everyone, come over!"

"His Majesty's benevolence naturally concerns the people's affairs. This intention arises from concern for the impact of the incident on Karuizawa's tranquility and regret over the loss of young life. We must comprehend the sacred will, but absolutely must not allow the imperial will to have any direct connection with the specific criminal case."

"We now need a dedicated special liaison officer to go to the scene to confirm the situation and observe Doctor Uesugi's investigative process — who among you — " Maeda Toshisuke's words were cut off as the scene immediately boiled over, everyone eager to try, wanting to go to the scene to observe.

Maeda Toshisuke's expression changed slightly, helplessly lowering his eyes, both annoyed and amused; he of course knew that observing the investigation at the scene was enjoyable, and for these monotonous, boring high-level officials of the Imperial Household Agency, of course they all wanted to go.

Even he wanted to go.

This is truly — an unprecedented Uesugi craze!

Risuke, Grandpa can only help you this far!
