"How did you initially classify these fractures?"
Mr. Qin recalled briefly and answered, "At the time, we invited forensic experts from several neighboring districts and counties, along with veteran experts from the city bureau, for a consultation."
"Everyone generally leaned towards injuries caused by falling—such as falling from a height and the body impacting some hard object, causing multiple fractures simultaneously."
"Some speculated it might have been struck by some object, but what specific object and where the impact point was, we never determined."
Jiang An did not respond immediately; he simply stared silently at the fractured bones.
After a while, he spoke, "This fracture pattern is indeed peculiar."
After speaking, he turned his gaze to the tree branch samples, his tone calm yet firm, "Next, focus on examining these tree branches."
