Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 117, Can a corpse kill people?
Late at night, the area outside Tokyo Medical and Dental University was filled with police cars.

The dense sound of sirens disturbed the peaceful night sky of Tokyo Medical and Dental University. Groups of police surrounded the medical building and alarmed the entire Tokyo Medical and Dental University Hospital. The inpatient department and the emergency department also realized that something was happening in the medical building.

But the Otsuka police who arrived at the scene had already blocked off the floor where Uesugi Sosetsu was.

The tragic scene at the scene was shocking to many detectives led by Tanaka Rodo.

The guard was killed and beheaded with a single blow, blood all over the ground.

The corpse of a middle-aged man in his forties was lying in the corridor in a disfigured state. His skin was rotten due to long time of death and was burned by the fire extinguisher. His left hand was chopped off in half, his skull was shattered, and his spine seemed to be shattered by some huge force from behind.

Tanaka Laodeng and Kuwahara Mako, who were present at the scene, racked their brains but could not figure out what had happened.

This, what is going on?
The subsequent on-site investigation left the detectives at Otsuka Police Station even more confused.

Tanaka Laodeng was the first to enter the forensic pathology department. He saw that the entire department was in a mess. Under the light, the tragic scene was even more horrific than they had imagined. The glassware, computers, testing machines, samples and water purifiers in the pathology department were all smashed to pieces. Then the curtains, white coats, stacked documents and CT photos were all cut into pieces by the sharp blade.

This is simply not something a human could do.

Tanaka Laodeng almost immediately judged that it was because Uesugi Sosetsu had offended many people in many cases, so someone came to seek revenge while he was in the hospital.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain the other party's insane destructive behavior. Generally speaking, even if there is a deep hatred, they would not spend time and effort to destroy the entire department.

Later, the dead security guard was also found. The traces of beheading with a single knife reminded Tanaka Laodeng of the previous serial murder case in Chiba Prefecture, with the same beheading with a single knife, and the same cruelty.

"So what is going on?" Tanaka Laodeng found that he could no longer understand.

"How should I know?" Asako Kuwahara also looked confused.

"There's no other way. Let's report to the headquarters." Tanaka Laodeng summarized the situation at the scene and decided to report to the police headquarters.

Besides, when it comes to murder cases like this, the local police station should report it to the police station.

"Now we may have to wait until little brother Uesugi wakes up to find out what happened."

An hour later, all the top leaders of Tokyo Medical and Dental University rushed over. Headed by Dean Ukai, they were all amazed at what was happening here.

Following the top brass of Tokyo Medical and Dental University were Inspector Kosaka of the First Division, Investigation Division 1, and Inspector Kashiwagi of the Third Division, Investigation Division 1, of the Metropolitan Police Department.

After the Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters arrived at the scene, they immediately received a piece of confusing news from the Tokyo Medical and Dental University.

"The two deceased at the scene were the security guard of the medical building, Tsukada Manosuke, 58 years old, and an employee of Asano Corporation, Nakano Hisato, 47 years old."

"Among them..." Inspector Kosaka said in confusion in the temporary command post: "Mr. Tsukada's expression is very distorted. It should be due to extreme shock, but this is not the point."

"The point is, Hisato Nakano's identity."

Inspector Kosaka pointed at the photo and the documents presented by the Tokyo Medical and Dental University with a confused look on his face: "Toshito Nakano was found dead in a love hotel this morning. After rescue efforts, he was pronounced dead by the Tokyo Medical and Dental University at noon today. The family thought it was very strange that Toshito Nakano, who was originally in very good health, would suddenly die, so they requested that the Tokyo Medical and Dental University perform an autopsy."

"Huh?!" Everyone in the temporary command post, including those from the Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters and Otsuka Police Station, was stunned.

Hisato Nakano? Dead man in the middle!
"Wait, if he stopped breathing in the morning and was confirmed dead at noon, then how did this guy appear at the scene?" Asako Kuwahara couldn't help but ask.

"We don't know either." Inspector Kosaka shook his head in confusion. "Besides... the autopsy this afternoon was..."

"It was Uesugi Munesetsu who performed the autopsy himself." Inspector Kosaka placed a photo of Uesugi Munesetsu next to Nakano Hisahito. "In the afternoon, Uesugi Munesetsu performed an autopsy on the body and confirmed that the cause of death was ischemic cardiomyopathy."

“???” The police at the scene were even more confused.

"Wait, wait! Kosaka-san, and everyone in the hospital, I'm not questioning you, but..." Tanaka Laodeng raised his hand: "But... what you mean is."

"A dead person suddenly came back to life in the middle of the night, and then attacked the security guard who was patrolling in the medical building and Uesugi who was working overtime on his graduation thesis with a knife?" Tanaka Laodeng was amused by this conclusion: "It is understandable that the patrolling security guard was suddenly killed, but according to the situation at the scene, Uesugi and Nakano Hisahito obviously had a fierce fight, and Uesugi also used a fire extinguisher..."

“That’s why we can’t understand what’s going on.”

The elites at the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters were helpless.

The Tokyo Medical and Dental University attached great importance to this matter. Dean Ukai found the ledger on the spot. The file contents proved that Nakano Hisahito had no vital signs when he arrived at the hospital. After rescue, he was officially declared dead at noon.

"........."

The entire temporary front-line command center was silent.

"It seems that we can only wait for the results of the autopsy from the Forensic Department's Dongshan, and for Advisor Uesugi to wake up before we can say anything."

The elites of the headquarters and the Otsuka Police Department were at a loss as to what to do with the current situation and could only continue the on-site inspection, investigate the interpersonal relationships and wait for the autopsy.

However, after waiting for a while, the Metropolitan Police Department did not wait for any major discovery, but...

Another female corpse was found in the medical building!
And it looked like he had died not long ago.

It's wicked!
The Metropolitan Police Department had to send more personnel to investigate the case.

During the investigation of the female corpse, the Metropolitan Police Department made some special discoveries.

Inspector Kashiwagi Hitoshi of the third department combined all the evidence and suddenly his eyes lit up. Perhaps, after eliminating all the wrong answers, the conclusion that seemed the most unlikely was the truth!
"Send someone to Musashino University immediately!"

…………

At around three in the morning, in the inpatient department, Uesugi Sosetsu woke up.

He found that Ikeda Erena was lying next to him, her hair was messy, she was breathing steadily, and she was sleeping soundly.

Uesugi Sosetsu was not seriously injured, but he immediately closed his eyes to relax his tense nerves.

What happened tonight was really weird.

Listening to the breathing of Erena beside him, Uesugi Sosetsu suddenly felt a little regretful. He regretted that he had not learned martial arts from Erena Ikeda before.

Yes, Uesugi Sosetsu took Erina as his teacher and took many lessons from her.

He learned martial arts, and studied them seriously, but he didn't study very hard. His karate and judo classes with Reina only maintained a level of one or two practices a week, and they didn't have many classes.

There are reasons for this. For example, the dojo of Otsuka Police Station can only be borrowed on weekends. For example, Uesugi Sosetsu is very busy at work. For example, since he obtained the power of the other world, he does not understand the supernatural elements and naturally lacks a stronger sense of vigilance. After a long time, he is busy with work and life and naturally relaxes a little in this regard.

Today really sounded a wake-up call for me!

Uesugi Sosetsu felt the shining light of the azurite in his right hand. The second statue, Vajra Yaksha, devoured filth and evil, eliminated disasters and difficulties, and crushed evil. The halo behind him was burning brightly. Saijo Yasue's curse and endless malice were being completely absorbed by Uesugi Sosetsu as Vajra Yaksha Mingwang chewed his food.

Where there is loss, there is gain. This attack activated the second Ming Wang.

Thinking of this, Uesugi Sosetsu frowned again. He now had two urgent problems that needed to be solved.

First, the inner world is so dangerous, so the strong prey on the weak, so why would that arrow that suddenly appeared in the air help me instead of just killing me as well? Wouldn't that be the maximum benefit?
At that time, I was on guard against possible follow-up attacks, but now it seems that there were none.

Second, Nishijo Yasue should be almost dead, right? But how should I explain this whole incident?
If he guessed correctly, according to the nature of the Japanese police, if they had no clue at this moment, they should...

Uesugi Sosetsu thought about it carefully and decided to wake up Erina.

"Uesugi? That's great, are you okay?" Erina was pushed awake by Uesugi Sosetsu, and immediately hugged him with her broad chest, not daring to use too much force: "I was really worried about you, I..."

"Wait, Master Erina, I have a very important favor to ask of you." Uesugi Sosetsu endured the headache and pain in his body and whispered something in Erina's ear: "...Go find Watanabe Minami now and ask her to do this, this, this, and that..."

"Okay, I understand." Ikeda Erena had almost unconditional trust in Uesugi Sosetsu. She immediately stood up, pushed open the door and went out.

Uesugi Sosetsu closed his eyes and counted down in his mind.

Erina's going out must mean that the police know he is awake.

Sure enough, he had just counted to thirteen when the door of the room was pushed open.

Inspector Kashiwagi Hitoshi of the Metropolitan Police Department's First Investigation Division Third Division appeared in front of Uesugi Sosetsu, with several policemen behind him. "Counselor Uesugi, are you all right?"

"It should be basically fine." Uesugi Sosetsu knew what the other party was here for.

"Well, we have a few questions for you, okay?" Inspector Kashiwagi Hitoshi signaled his men to guard the door, and he came to Uesugi Sosetsu alone: "Excuse me, what exactly happened to you tonight?"

Uesugi Munesetsu nodded and told him what happened tonight. He did not mention anything supernatural. The general description was that he was staying in the medical building because he was writing his graduation thesis. He heard some noise upstairs and called the guard, but the call was suddenly disconnected. He thought it was a bit strange, so he went out to check and was attacked. The two sides fought, and because the other party was holding a knife, Uesugi Munesetsu decided to use a fire extinguisher to defend himself at the critical moment of life and death.

This was the excuse he had thought of.

In fact, this explanation was not easy to justify, but he could not explain it further. If the police could not find evidence, they could not prosecute him.

However, after hearing his words, Inspector Kashiwagi Jin of the Third Department looked at his men and revealed a meaningful expression.

"Counselor Uesugi, did you miss something?"

"Hmm?" Uesugi Sosetsu frowned. He went over the entire statement in his mind again. He felt that although he couldn't make it completely consistent, he had nothing missing.

Kashiwagi Ren took out a photo and placed it in front of Uesugi Sosetsu: "Do you recognize her?"

Uesugi Sosetsu looked at the body in the photo, and his pupils shrank suddenly: "Saito?"

"It seems you know her." Kashiwagi Ren said coldly: "Yes, she is dead, and her body was found in the corridor."

"Advisor Uesugi, are you going to continue to quibble?"

"She, she is dead?" Uesugi Sosetsu opened his mouth wide.

"Stop pretending, Advisor Uesugi!" Seeing the expression on Uesugi Sosetsu's face, Kashiwagi Hitoshi became more certain.

"It was you who killed the guard, killed the lover, and framed the murder on the corpse!"

"Tokyo Medical and Dental University's forensic pathologist, Uesugi Muneyuki!!!"
