How to work

"Of course the murderer wasn't me!" Guo Yang pointed his finger at the morgue, "If I want to kill her, why can't I kill her? Is it worth the effort to find a nail?"

Shen Wansha rolled his eyes, "So it's just that nails are troublesome."

"What do you mean!" Guo Yang looked fiercely.

"It means that you regard human life as worthless, and you don't think it's wrong to kill Shang Qiaoqiao," Shen Wansha folded his arms and stared at Guo Yang, "Perhaps you said that on purpose to alleviate your suspicions. Shang Qiaoqiao was the one who killed you. of!"

Guo Yang jumped angrily, "I told you I didn't kill it!"

"You killed it!"

"no!"

"Yes!"

C is very quarrelsome.

Zhao Zhu looked at the iron nail on the tray, "Folk iron wares often contain impurities and are dark in color."

Lu Li guessed that this question should be about the 'hot iron nail', and said: "No matter how dark the iron is, the surface should not be so rough. This is caused by the adhesion of the skin, flesh and brain tissue of the deceased."

He took a clean veil, wiped off the dirty and smelly mucus on the iron nail, then clamped the top of the iron nail with tweezers, and scraped with the scalpel diagonally——

Some black charred matter fell.

"These are probably the skin and flesh tissues that were burnt instantly when the red-hot iron nails were wedged into the human body."

Lu Li went around to the corpse again, and cut a slit on the tip of the deceased's nose with a scalpel, and carefully lifted the nasal cartilage to expose the nasal cavity. The burn marks on it are still there."

Zhao Zhu took a step forward to observe carefully, and sure enough, the marks in the left and right nostrils were different, and there were obvious burn marks on the left cartilage.

The officials sent by the government to record the conclusions of the autopsy with a pen and paper also came over to have a look, and after finishing the notes, they sighed, "Mr. Lu's skills are really good!"

Lu Li smiled and took a long breath.

How important is the human central nervous system, if the brain is deprived of oxygen for 6 minutes, irreversible damage will occur.However, compared with other organs, the resistance and tolerance of brain tissue to disease or injury are much lower, especially the brainstem part, which controls the heartbeat and breathing center of the human body. Even mild hemorrhage can cause rapid Death, let alone being pierced straight by such an iron nail.

There is no external injury in this method of killing, and there will be no special lesions in the internal organs that are visible to the naked eye. If it is not for the brain anatomy, it is almost impossible to find out. If he can come up with this method, the murderer is also smart.

The only consolation is that Shang Qiaoqiao didn't suffer too much pain when he died...

Lu Li asked the clerk who wrote the autopsy grid to carefully observe and confirm the signs of the corpse, and then he picked up the needle and thread and prepared to sew up the corpse.

The first step of suturing, of course, is to restore the brain hemisphere just cut off, then cover the skull, and pull the scalp...

Shen Wansha and Guo Yang couldn't stop arguing at the side, and unexpectedly saw Lu Li with bloody hands, holding half a human brain, and stuffing it into the dead man's skull... Guo Yang got stuck and couldn't stop. Dare to speak again.

Why did he forget again, this person surnamed Lu can't be messed with, and Young Master Shen is not the old Young Master Shen, what if he is in a hurry, someone will take him away while he sleeps and have him dissected!

Shen Wansha also grabbed the door frame again.

He has seen Lu Li's autopsy many times, and he has also seen the autopsy many times. He has even experienced life-saving. Normally, nothing can surprise him now, but!It was the first time he saw Lu Li cut off a human head!

Use a saw!

He had been curious about Lu Li's crafting boxes before, the rows of shiny tools, many of which he couldn't name.But he knew the saw, so he asked Lu Li what it was used for.Because although the saw is very sharp, it is not too big.

Lu Li just smiled slightly, saying that there are probably very few chances to use it, and you will know when it is used.

Shen Wansha was very curious, but the curiosity passed away immediately, and he didn't pay any more attention. Thinking about it now, it turned out that it was specially designed to open people's heads!No wonder Lu Li didn't say anything at the time, because he was afraid of scaring him...

But it's really scary!Human brain... It was the first time in his life that he saw what a neat human brain looked like!

……

Suturing a corpse is not easier than dissecting it, especially when the corpse is severely corrupted, it took Lu Li a long time to finish everything.

Zhao Zhu personally brought him clean water to wash his hands, hugged him after washing, and kissed his face from an angle that no one else could see, "Are you tired?"

Lu Li pushed him hard, "I'm dirty——"

"I'm the same as you." Zhao Zhu didn't care at all.Except for the blouse on Lu Li's body, the clothes on his body were not dirty, but it was too close to the corpse, and the smell was a bit strong.During the autopsy, Zhao Zhu was in the room all the time, not far from Lu Li, and he also had the same smell.

……

After all this busy work, it's time to hold the lamps.Zhao Zhu and Lu Li were in charge. The two of them didn't take a break, so others naturally didn't dare to leave. As soon as Lu Li walked out of the room, he saw Guo Yang sitting on the stone pier in the yard.

Lu Li paused, turned his face to the side and winked quietly at Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu understood that Guo Yang was afraid of him, so it would be best for him to ask.He raised his chin slightly and pointed to the attendant beside Guo Yang, "Who is he?"

Guo Yang accompanied him with a smile, with a respectful expression, "His name is Wu Yong, and he is my father's attendant. I have a lot of things here today, and my father was worried, so he sent him here."

"You said just now that Shang Qiaoqiao was not killed by you, are you willing to cooperate with the investigation?" Zhao Zhu's voice was cold, and his eyes were sharp.

Guo Yang trembled unbelievably, "Yes, I am willing to cooperate with the investigation!"

"On the tenth day of the fourth lunar month, Shang Qiaoqiao took a rest, and returned to Shou'anbo Mansion at Shenshi that afternoon, but is that so?"

Guo Yang looked excited, "Yes!"

"My son—" Wu Yong, the attendant beside him, shouted eagerly, but did not stop him.

Guo Yang glanced at Wu Yong, his expression was a little nervous, but he still clenched his fist with a firm expression, "Shang Qiaoqiao was indeed in my house that day!"

"Very good," Zhao Zhu narrowed his eyes, "On April 20th, your servants brought Shang Qiaoqiao's body to Dengxin Alley, North Street, returned it to Shang Minmin, and left [-] taels of silver, but that's it?"

"Yes!"

"What happened in the middle, please enlighten me." Zhao Zhu's voice was low and oppressive.

"Shang Qiaoqiao wasn't killed by me!" Guo Yang opened his eyes wide, "I—"

"Your Majesty!" Wu Yong stared closely at Guo Yang's eyes, his eyes were solemn and cold, "Think clearly before speaking!" He said this with a bit of gnashing of teeth. Lu Li guessed that if the two people's identities were not too different Wu Yong probably wanted to beat Guo Yang straight up.

Seeing Wu Yong's lips open and close silently, worried that he would destroy Guo Yang's confession, Lu Li quickly pulled Zhao Zhu's sleeve.

Zhao Zhu moved his index finger and middle finger together, and the secret guard Xing Zuo Hong You jumped out, held Wu Yong down and pushed him down.

Seeing the scene before him, Guo Yang suddenly regretted it, maybe he shouldn't be so impulsive, maybe Wu Yong reminded him right...

Seeing the nails, he decided that he was not the murderer, but he was not in the right state that day, he was very excited and had a lot of fun, and he couldn't remember many things clearly after waking up.Maybe it's because he played too much, and he didn't even let go of the iron nails when he was so excited, did he really kill Shang Qiaoqiao by mistake?

"Guo Yang."

While thinking, Guo Yang heard Zhao Zhu call his name, and his body trembled again.

Now that there is no one around to remind him, he dare not speak freely, "Uh... I don't know how Shang Qiaoqiao died, but I didn't kill her!"

"What did you do that day?"

"It's the same as before..." Guo Yang's eyes rolled straight, "Eat, after eating, write and read in the book or study, and then go back to sleep. That Shang Qiaoqiao wants to climb on the bed! Yes, she wants to climb on me bed!"

Guo Yang spoke more and more fluently, "I'm sleeping to death, and I can't wake up even if I fall asleep. She will definitely not be able to get on the bed if she wants to. But I don't know that she is going to climb on the bed. Maybe I crushed her when I turned over... I Fat, with heavy hands and feet, she might not be able to escape after being pressed down, so when I woke up, I saw her on my bed...but I really don't know how she died!"

His expression was quite different now from before, his anxiety and agitation were all gone, and his eyes calmed down.

Shen Wansha jumped over and whispered to Lu Li, "At that time, he was still clamoring to cooperate with us and let us avenge him, but the subordinate around him would retort whatever he said casually, there must be something tricky!"

Lu Li agreed with the young master's point of view very much, and asked Guo Yang: "You don't know when and why Shang Qiaoqiao appeared on your bed. You found her after you woke up. She had been dead for a long time?"

"Yes! My body is cold!"

"You thought you killed her."

"Yes..." Guo Yang pursed his lips, "I thought I crushed her to death."

"Oh?"

"What the doctor in the mansion said, and later Shang Minmin filed a complaint, and the office worker also said it was possible."

Shen Wansha was a little curious, tilted his head and pulled La Luli's sleeve, "A big living person, will he be crushed to death?"

"It's possible." Lu Li explained, "We breathe through the contraction and relaxation of the chest and abdomen respiratory muscles. When the external pressure on the chest and abdomen exceeds the contraction force of the respiratory muscles, the breathing movement cannot proceed normally. If a person cannot breathe normally... ..."

"The only thing left is death." Shen Wansha suddenly felt terrible, "I've heard of children playing and burying their companions in the soil, leaving only the head outside, but that companion is still dead, is it also the same? reason?"

Lu Li nodded, "It's possible."

However, individuals who died in this way belonged to suffocation, and there would be severe suffocation phenomena on the body, such as bruising and swelling of the face, conjunctival hyperemia, edema, hemorrhage, a large number of bleeding spots on the face, neck, chest, subcutaneous skin, pulmonary edema, visceral congestion, etc. .

Shang Qiaoqiao's body swells, which is a normal late-stage corpse phenomenon. It is caused by the increase of putrid gas in her body. Her face, neck, and chest are not asphyxiated, and some internal organs that are not seriously polluted can also be seen. There is no edema and congestion, so she It must not have been crushed to death by Guo Yang.

The method of killing people with iron nails is weird, and he can understand it if he can't test it, but the phenomenon of suffocation should not be difficult to see with some experience.Lu Li has some doubts, is it true that the office worker in the government office has no experience at all, he misunderstood, or... has a reason for doing this?

There is also Shang Qiaoqiao's corpse, the corruption speed is accelerating, and it suddenly appeared in the alley... Lu Li always felt that it was not a coincidence, but someone did it on purpose.Judging from Guo Yang's behavior, the body should have been stolen from the Shou'anbo Mansion, but it was stolen but not destroyed, and it was thrown out after it rotted too much. Is it to remove the suspicion for Guo Yang?

Who is the murderer in this case?Does the Shou'anbo Mansion know the cause of death of the deceased?

……

While Lu Li was thinking, Zhao Zhu asked Guo Yang a few more questions, but it was a pity that Guo Yang only said a few words back and forth, and did not explain more.Frozen for a while, Lu Li suggested to let Guo Yang go, and Zhaoshang Minmin came over to discuss the burial of the deceased.Anyway, Guo Yang couldn't escape to the capital, so it was convenient for him to ask questions at any time.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Hu found him one step earlier than Shang Minmin.The business in the store was not so good today, he finally left early, and found out the news along the way, seeing Guo Yang's eyes almost bleeding, he rushed over and grabbed his collar and punched him hard.

"Who are you! What are you doing!"

"Who am I, I'm your grandma!" Zhou Hu punched one after another, punching to the flesh, "You give me back my Qiaoqiao, give me back!"

The thing happened too fast, maybe Zhao Zhu was happy for this scene to happen, and no one stopped it, Guo Yang was beaten for life.

It wasn't until Guo Yang couldn't see his face that Zhao Zhu slowly let the guards go up to stop Zhou Hu.

Guo Yang was so wronged, "My lord!"

Zhao Zhu didn't pay attention to him, this fat black man was trembling all over his body, it was disgusting to see, and he even pretended to be wronged... It was even more disgusting.Zhao Zhu hurriedly looked at his daughter-in-law, washing his eyes.

Seeing no one was paying attention, Guo Yang stomped his feet angrily, pointed at Zhou Hu, "You wait for me!"

Zhou Hu was held up by the guards and couldn't move, so he simply raised his foot and kicked Guo Yang, "I will beat you once I see you!"

……

After Guo Yang left, Zhou Hu quickly calmed down.

Lu Li looked at him, "Are you Shang Qiaoqiao's childhood sweetheart?"

Zhou Hu frowned, his eyes were red, "Yes, we agreed that we will live a good life after she redeems herself..."

"you--"

"Can I go and see Qiaoqiao?" Zhou Hu had tears in his eyes, "I haven't seen her for quite a while since she lost her."

"It's all right, but I just had an autopsy—"

Lu Li wanted to remind Zhou Hu to be mentally prepared, but Zhou Hu had already lowered his head deeply, and said in a muffled voice, "I understand... I know that the autopsy of Mr. must be performed with a knife. Xiner told me that I would Know……"

"then you go."

……

Lu Li, Zhao Zhu and Shen Wansha sat down on the short pier in the courtyard, resting for a while, and soon heard the suppressed crying in the morgue.A man's cry is not as hoarse as a woman's, but the suppressed sobs in his throat are quite sad.

When Shang Minmin and Zhou Xin came over, the crying in the room became even louder, and the mournful wailing made this warm spring and April look miserable.

Shen Wansha flattened his mouth, "They are so pitiful..."

"Who says it's not?" Lu Li sighed slightly, looking up at the sky.

Every death is accompanied by the tears of relatives. We hope that relatives will be healthy, live a long life, enjoy all the emotions in the world, and finally leave with satisfaction and without pain.Even so, relatives will be reluctant to give up, let alone young innocent, brutally murdered?

Lu Li has seen many similar scenes, but he still can't get used to it. It is always difficult for him to face people's tears, this kind of real, painful emotion to vent.

He can't save people, he can only find the murderer, comfort the souls of the dead, and calm the minds of the living.

While sighing, his hands felt warm, it was Zhao Zhu holding his hand.

Lu Li turned his head to look, Zhao Zhu's eyes were filled with his reflection, and he was looking at him with a smile.

Slightly startled, Lu Li raised the corners of his lips and returned a bright smile.

It's nice to have someone with you...

……

After a long time, Shang Minmin, Zhou Hu and Zhou Xin came out, knelt down in front of Lu Li, and solemnly kowtowed their heads to express their thanks.

Lu Li wanted to say no, but Zhao Zhu held down his hand and made him accept the gift.He turned his head in surprise, and saw Zhao Zhu's eyes move slightly: You deserve it.

He couldn't resist Zhao Zhu's strength, so he had to sit quietly.

Shang Minmin begged Lu Li to do an autopsy on her sister's body, but she had never seen Lu Li's autopsy for her. Although she heard that he would sew up the body, she didn't have much expectation in her heart. Can have a good burial.

She knew that this decision was too disrespectful to her sister, and she was willing to accept her sister's harsh words and punishment after death, but she didn't expect that her sister's body was really well sewn.Not only the opened place, but also the broken belly was sewn up, and the stitches were neat and smooth.If those lines are ignored, the body of my sister...is intact, as if it has never been opened.

She had never heard of any work that had such respect for dead bodies and such good techniques.

Moreover, Lu Li also found out the cause of her sister's death. As of today, she finally knows how her sister died...

Shang Minmin's forehead was pressed against the ground, and tears rolled down like broken beads.To Lu Li, she couldn't thank her enough.

……

Lu Li woke her up, and when she calmed down, he said in a slow voice, "Although I sewed up your sister, she has been dead for a long time and is not suitable for preservation. It is better to arrange for burial earlier."

Of course Shang Minmin hoped that her sister could be buried as soon as possible, "But the case has not been solved, and my sister's body—"

"No problem," Lu Li said with a smile, "During my autopsy, there were quite a few witnesses, and the autopsy grid was written very carefully. It was stamped with the handprints of government officials, and the small seals of King Ping and I are sufficient evidence."

Shang Minmin became even more excited, her voice trembling, "Mr. Xie... Thank you, Mr...."

Afterwards, Lu Li asked Zhou Hu about Shang Qiaoqiao.

Zhou Hu is not a serious person, and he is too busy on weekdays. He rarely meets Shang Qiaoqiao who can't go home often, but because he likes and cares, he still notices something strange during the limited meeting time.

Before the accident happened, he didn't think deeply about it, but now that something happened, when Lu Li asked carefully, he remembered that Shang Qiaoqiao was indeed different from usual.

"In the past, she always wanted to come out of the uncle's house, but every time she mentioned it, she looked forward to it. The last few times, her brows were dark, she seemed a little worried, a little anxious... I asked a question at that time, and she said it was nothing, it was just a matter Too much upset, and Dao Minmin is too young to let me talk nonsense." Zhou Hu slapped himself on the forehead regretfully, "I thought it was a woman who was melancholy and quick to change, so I didn't think about it, if I asked more... Qiaoqiao may not have to die!"

Hearing this, Shang Minmin choked up again, "Sister is always like this... I take care of any troubles by myself, lest we worry..."

Zhou Xin hugged Shang Minmin, his throat trembled, and his voice whimpered, "Sister Qiaoqiao is a good person, she hopes for your well-being, don't cry anymore, your body is broken, sister Qiaoqiao should be even more sad..."

It's a pity that the two spent so little time together, Zhou Hu didn't know what happened around Shang Qiaoqiao.

……

Finally straightened everything out, and went back to the garden to take a bath and eat, it was the last hour of Xu.

Lu Li squeezed his big white paw, playing with it while thinking about the case.He was so focused on his thoughts that he didn't even notice that Zhao Zhu came to kiss him and was slapped away by Dabai's paw.

Zhao Zhu shot a cold light in his eyes, he held Dabai by the back of his neck, and tried to throw it out, but Dabai groaned and rubbed against Lu Li, and Lu Li hugged him subconsciously...

"Wow woof woof! woof woof!" Dabai tilted his head proudly and flicked his tail at Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu stared at the trembling hair on his big white eyebrows, and slowly narrowed his eyes.

Dabai felt the murderous intent, and quickly hid in Lu Li's arms.

Lu Li's legs hurt from being caught by it, his consciousness returned, and he saw the people around him, "Zhao Zhu!"

Zhao Zhu sat over, hugged him on his lap very naturally, and 'by the way' drove away the big white dog in his arms.

His palm was gentle, and Dabai just followed this force and jumped to the ground without any injuries or any discomfort.Lu Li snuggled into Zhao Zhu's arms obediently, patted Dabai's head, "Be good, go and play with Sister Weiwei."

Dabai whined aggrievedly, and kept licking Lu Li's hand.

Lu Li scratched his neck for him, and finally waved goodbye to it.

Dabai looked back at his master three times a step at a time, barking angrily at Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu squinted at it arrogantly: Fighting with this king, hum!

……

"What are you thinking?" Zhao Zhu kissed the corner of Lu Li's lips.

"I'm thinking...Guo Yang's unfinished words." Lu Li pushed Zhao Zhu's face away, "He said he died in sleep, I didn't see how Shang Qiaoqiao got to his bed, I don't believe a word."

No matter how hard you sleep, will someone around you not know?Furthermore, Guo Yang is the eldest son, there are servants serving him twelve hours a day, he doesn't know, how can the servants not know?Will this be allowed to happen?

However, Guo Yang's attitude changed a lot. Lu Li didn't think he was lying. He just felt that he had a lot of things to say, and what he didn't say was very important.

Zhao Zhu held Lu Li's hand and kissed it delicately on his lips, "No matter what he is hiding, there are still suspicions on him."

This is.

Lu Li leaned on Zhao Zhu's shoulder, thinking seriously.

Shang Qiaoqiao had semen spots on her skirt, and she might have been raped before she died.No matter how bad the rules of the uncle's house are, they will not allow the servants to mess around too much. Even if a servant has the guts to do such a thing, he has no ability to blame the master. Guo Yang said that when he woke up in the morning and saw her on his bed, then The perpetrator is probably Guo Yang himself.

Being able to rape people, but not knowing how they died, especially in such a special and impressive way of death...Why?

Could it be that he is unconscious?Can't remember what you did?

drug?No, it was rare in ancient times, that is...drunk.

Lu Li's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he suddenly remembered that turmeric can soothe a hangover.

"Zhao Zhu, check something for me!" Lu Li leaned over and said a few words into Zhao Zhu's ear.

The corners of Zhao Zhu's lips curled up evilly, "Yes, as long as you let me—" He also leaned into Lu Li's ear and said a few words.

Lu Li's ears turned red instantly, "Shameless!"

"I'm only ashamed of my wife..."

Another hot night.

……

Zhao Zhu soon found out that Lu Li's guess was correct, Guo Yang was indeed drunk on the night of April [-]th.

But when they were about to follow up on this clue, the case changed.

A new corpse appeared with the same cause of death as Shang Qiaoqiao.
