Yang Qi suggested, "What if the drug only causes very brief paralysis and a minor metabolic disorder in the muscle fibers? The injection point would be minuscule, and the drug itself would metabolize so quickly that it would be nearly impossible to detect in a drowning victim during a standard autopsy. All that would be left is this incredibly subtle difference in texture?"
Upon hearing this, Forensic Doctor Liu froze for a moment. Then, all his knowledge of toxicology and pathology came flooding back.
His eyes widened, and his breathing grew ragged. "That's… that's possible! Especially with certain modified biotoxins or synthetic anesthetics. They're short-acting, highly targeted, and cause minimal tissue damage, but they're potent enough to cause a complete loss of function."
"If it was injected through an ultra-fine needle or even fangs, the puncture wound could be so tiny it would be impossible to identify after being submerged in water!"
