Title: Cause of Death?
Post by cheesepuff on Jun 14th, 2008, 7:52pm
Bill is walking across the bridge as he sees someone walking in front of him. He calls out "Susan!!!" and she waves back. Then she sets herself on fire and stuggles around. She collapses off the side of the bridge, but she ends up dying anyways. However, after her body is recovered,  it is discovered that she died by head trauma. Why?

Two acceptable answers

Not a highway but your getting there (to one of the answers the other is in the other direction)

The bridge was definitely over a river

She fell on a boat.

Or the river was frozen.

You're getting there but there was nothing on the river

Was the river of any significance or was it just any old river?

The river was frozen on the surface only, she fell through, hitting her head and then falling in the water <b>or</b> the river was really shallow and she hit her head on a ock at the bottom.

Yeah, the really shallow river is one of the answers

There was the bridge, wasn't there?  She bumped on the base of the pillars or midway on the lower deck or something.

Or the bridge was so high that she reached such a speed that she could get a head injury just hitting the water.

A fast moving motor boat hit her. Or she was wearing a fireproof jacket and only her head was burnt(that's still called head trauma, I guess). Or her head was bitten by a shark. Or she fell on an island in the river.

Do you mean the last two in my post or Towr/Grimbal's?

Title: Re: Cause of Death?

Yours and Grimbals. towr is trying to get the answer to the second riddle: How did she struggle if she was already dead?

Oh and by the way for the second riddle the river is deep

Title: Re: Cause of Death?
Post by Grimbal on Jun 21st, 2008, 10:12am
First she struggled then she died.  Or do you mean she died first?

when the bridge collapsed...she hit her head on a falling rock...then fell into the river below...?

Title: Re: Cause of Death?
Post by cheesepuff on Jun 21st, 2008, 6:17pm
She was dead before she was on fire, so how did she struggle?

If you check the riddles wording (No play on words, don't worry) You'll see a hole, and that's how the murderer did it. He tried to make it look like suicide to stop a murder investigation. Turns out he wasn't very smart, leaving that blow to the head....

But how did she struggle?

The bridge didn't collapse. she jumped off

She was Siamese twin?

No... interesting idea though

[link=http://www.onemanga.com/Detective_Conan/317/]This one[/link] is kind of long.  The relevant murder is in chapter 319, but the trick isn't revealed until chapter 321.  (In the anime this was part of a two-hour special, episode 263.)

I'm at the 300's but the manga is at the 600's... wonder if he'll evergrow back permanently.... It's pretty good but to but stuck like that for 12-13 years (assuming that 1 is released a week) means he would have grown back naturally anyways... :/

But don't spoil it for me

my favorite one is the moonlight sonata.... except for the crossdresser
