National Forensic Doctor

The body had already been autopsied, with a long surgical suture running through the chest and abdomen, splitting the person in half before stitching them back together.

On the head, a white towel was wrapped around, because the head had truly been cut into two halves, now bound with the towel.

Jiang Yuan looked over the autopsy report and had decided not to perform a third autopsy.

Coroner Jacob had just performed the second autopsy and found nothing, which was why he called Jiang Yuan over. And there wasn’t much left to autopsy for a third time.

As of now, the victim’s three body cavities had already been emptied, with the heart, liver, spleen, stomach, kidneys, brain, and so on already removed, and the necessary specimens had all been sliced. Reopening would be meaningless, as all that would be seen were bones and flesh.

And important organs like the brain were processed in a highly standardized way by Jacob and others, first preserved with paraffin before being finely sliced into dozens of pieces to make specimens. Through this process, whether the brain had petechial hemorrhages or thromboses became immediately obvious.

It was also through this process that forensic doctors ruled out the possibility of the victim having a cerebral infarction.

Therefore, the focus of the examination was actually on the surface of the body.

Jiang Yuan thoroughly examined the body from head to toe. The muscles were already in a relaxed state, and there were minor abrasions on the neck, but like the injuries to the heart and lungs, they could only serve as evidence and could not explain the cause of death.

While Jiang Yuan conducted his examination, Coroner Jacob and others also looked closely.
