Dossier concerning Guo Yi (郭毅), a 28-year-old man from Hebei who died in Shanghai on 7 April 1949 after shooting himself. A medical certificate of death issued by Lester Chinese Hospital (上海仁濟醫院) identifies the deceased as 郭毅, male, aged 28, and records a gunshot wound to the head (頭腦部槍傷) as the primary cause of death. The place of death is given as the Lester Chinese Hospital on Shantung Road. The dossier contains the police report on the non-natural death, statements concerning the circumstances leading to the shooting, the hospital death certificate, judicial correspondence, a prosecutorial inquest, and a detailed examination of the corpse. The final medico-legal examination concludes that Guo Yi died after using a handgun on himself, with the gunshot directed at the left temple.
