Chapter 10: Don't lie in front of me

"Some time ago, what big case happened in Bianhe City, and I asked my father to come for an autopsy?" Twilight looked at the hunchbacked, thin old man and changed her question.

He is just a gatekeeper of Yizhuang, and if you ask him who the murderer is, he may not know. But there was something going on in the city, and he couldn't possibly not know.

"How do I know?" Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head, "I'm just a gatekeeper, which round of the case of assassinating Shi Fuya got my old bones to ask?" ”

Twilight's gaze cooled a little, and the white lantern on the ground shone on the side of her face, reflecting the dull and yellow complexion as if it was not warmer than the corpse on the ground.

The old man's eyes flashed, he stepped back, and said with a straight face: "You kid, why don't you believe in people? If you can run an errand for the Assassin's Mansion, you still need to watch the corpse and guard the door in this righteous village? Who is not poor and destitute in this business? ”

Twilight didn't answer, the blade in her hand was snow-white, and suddenly the wind broke through the snow in the darkness, and the snow pierced people's eyes.

The knife is approaching, an inch!

She didn't believe it, she only believed in one of the aphorisms of this line - the body of the dead does not lie, the expression of the living does not lie.

In her previous life, there was a discipline that was still very new in the scientific community, but was valued by the security bureaus and criminal investigation agencies of various countries, called micro-expression psychology.

The so-called micro-expressions, that is, the subtle expressions of people, are so subtle that they are fleeting, and it is often difficult for people without professional training to capture them. But it's these expressions that are difficult to capture that often reveal what people really think inside.

Experts who can recognize these expressions and see through people's true thoughts are called micro-expression psychologists, and there is also a more apt name - mind reading experts.

In Twilight's previous life, the security bureaus and criminal investigation departments of various countries hired micro-expression experts to distinguish between spies and criminals who were good at lying. Internationally, there are not many micro-expression psychologists, and Twilight is one of them. It is precisely because of the rarity of interdisciplinary scientists that she was specially hired to the national security system as soon as she returned to China.

In this world, people who have the ability to lie in front of her have not yet been born!

She was sure that the old man was lying, and his expression was too strict. Of course, there are people in this world who are not afraid of death, but no one will not be nervous in the face of death threats, and no matter how good at concealing them, they will have subtle expressions. The old man's expression was too strict, and even his nervousness was suppressed under Yan SΓΉ's appearance.

People only reduce their facial expressions and body movements when they are resistant, so people who lie tend to be stricter than usual.

If it is inferred from common sense, the leisure life of the people in these years is quite boring, and once a case occurs, it will definitely spread everywhere after tea and dinner. Although it was not the old man's turn to inquire about the case of the Assassin's Mansion, it was impossible for him not to hear anything, and he was guarding the door in Yizhuang and contacting the officials of the state government, and the news would definitely be known faster and more reliable than the people outside.

"In this case, the Assassin's Mansion is extremely strict, and the official who came to Yizhuang had a tight mouth as if he was about to lose his head if he revealed a word! If you don't believe it, you go to the street and inquire, there is no news in the city, this case is ...... Treacherous! The old man stared at the knife in Twilight's hand, as if it was being shaken by the light of the knife, and the pupils in his cloudy eyes shrank and blinked.

The sword light suddenly stabbed forward again!

Closer, an inch!

His pupils are constricted, his blinking frequency increases, and he's still lying!

The old man was startled, looked at the young man's hand with a knife, his voice suddenly raised, and he said angrily: "Good, good! Then you killed my old bones with one sword! ”

When the words fell, the sword light rose, and the night wind blew through the hall, the wind was a little cold, and the front of the throat was a little cold.

The old man's eyes straightened, and his angry face instantly stiffened, this kid ...... Really?!

Twilight didn't want to hurt the old man, but he knew the inside story of his father's death, but he deliberately concealed it, and she didn't dare to guarantee how long she could maintain her calm in the face of him.

Dad died, she examined the body, determined the cause of death, locked the scope of the murderer, and used up all the calmness in this life. She just wanted to know what was going on, and then, to do what a daughter should do for her father.

The summer night was fine, and the lights and candles were rolled up in the leaky hall, swaying and shining on the young man's face. The face was not good-looking, with thick eyebrows and thin eyes, not like a face with courage and momentum, but the momentum was forced on the tip of the knife, and the tip of the knife was cold, against the warm skin, ready to taste the taste of blood at any time.

The old man sighed, "If I don't say it, it's for your good, even if you know, you can't avenge this revenge." ”

"It's my business whether I can report it or not."

"You!" The old man choked, his eyes widened, and suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed to the sky, "This matter has something to do with that person!" Have you avenged this revenge? ”

Twilight looked at the sky, her eyes changed, and her tone was cold, "Make it clear!" ”

"No matter how clear I am, I don't know that this Yizhuang is a place where I often go in and out, and I also listened to a guy in the Yamen of the Assassin Shi when I was drinking at night. Do you know that today's ......" the old man's voice trembled low in the wind through the hall, "Today's saint is quite a good man, and there are three thousand male concubines in this Bianhe Palace, but there is no serious lady who can continue to have children." The Holy Driver came to the palace in June every year, not to mention ten years, and never brought a woman! But this time, I actually brought a lady here, which shows how much this lady is favored. But this lady somehow came to Bianhe...... It's dead! The saint was furious and ordered the assassination of Shi Fuya to find out the cause of death and arrest the murderer. ”

"When a person dies, the cause of death must be investigated, but is it necessary to conduct an autopsy first? But how noble is the identity of the mother, and she is a woman, which one dares to look at her body? If you look at this, you can't gouge out your eyes and cut off your hands? Even if someone dares to test and verify the cause of death, this is a secret of heaven! Wouldn't it be a disaster to know such secrets? The Assassin Mansion was slippery, and when he got the news, he said that he was sick at home, and he played slippery and avoided it. The Emperor's order to assassinate the Shifu was difficult to disobey, and the old man had a long reputation for his work in the Jiangnan area, and this errand fell on him. Alas! ”

The old man sighed, "When Old Twilight was carried here, I smelled the smell of wine on his body, probably from drinking poisoned wine. ”

He raised his eyes to look at Twilight, shook his head and sighed, "Now that you know, you say, can you take revenge on this revenge?" ”

Twilight didn't answer, only turned around, and walked out as she had walked into the hall, her thin back in the night breeze.

The old man was stunned for a while before he reacted, stretched his neck and shouted, "You stunned boy!" Do you really want to get revenge? Oops hey! That's a great sin for the Nine Clans! ”

Twilight didn't look back, and the people had already walked to the gate of the courtyard.

The old man was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "You're going to stab the wrath of the sky, but don't say that you're listening to it from me!" Ouch, I knew I couldn't say it! I'm going to be killed by you! I'm going to be killed by you......"

He was so anxious that he turned around and caught a glimpse of the corpse on the ground, he was stunned, hurriedly ran out, and shouted from afar: "What about the corpse?" You won't take it back? ”

Twilight had turned out the door, her voice scattered in the wind, "Stay overnight, I'll pick it up early tomorrow morning." ”――

Off topic -

Regarding micro-expressions, I didn't explain it too professionally, for fear that it would be too academic, and girls who have not been exposed to this term can't understand it.

Is there anything you don't understand about this explanation?

The two identities of the young girl, a forensic doctor and a psychologist, the story is gradual and will slowly unfold in front of everyone. At present, there are ten chapters, 20,000 words, and the story is limited.

During the public period, the number of words in the chapters is small, and it is not easy to chase the text, thanks to Kaiwen for following the story every day for ten days.
