Chapter 520 It’s Not Tina

Tim was squatting beside the body, and he answered without looking up, “She jumped from a great height and landed headfirst. Her skull broke, and she died on the spot. And also…” He held her hand and pinched it from her fingertips to her shoulder. The bone doesn’t feel right. Tim had a weird look on his face, and he quickly tossed it away and held the other arm up, pinching up from her fingertips to her shoulders as well. When he was done, he squinted, his eyes gleaming darkly.

“What’s wrong?” Toby asked, curious about what Tim just did.

Tim stood up, but he didn’t answer Toby. Instead, he looked at Teddy. “Take the body to the morgue. I’ll have to perform an autopsy.”

Tim took his gloves off. “Then make it quick. This is important to the case.”

Teddy looked at him, then at the body on the ground. In the end, he went aside to call someone.

Toby gazed at Tim. “What did you find? I know something’s wrong. The look on your face tells me I’m right.”

Tim adjusted his glasses. “Yes. I suspect that this is not Tina’s body.”

Tim grunted. “I’m seventy percent sure. You know I worked part time as a forensic doctor overseas, so I know a lot about human skeletons. When I checked the arm, I realized that it doesn’t match Tina’s size. Sure, it is almost the same height as Tina, but its bones are bigger, so…”
