Lu Jinping examined the deceased's mouth and found that blood was gushing out. Lu Jinping frowned, which means that there should be a fresh wound in his mouth.

How can there be a wound in the mouth? What's going on? Lu Jinping carefully stuck his cheek, opened his chin and looked in, and at this look, he couldn't help but gasp. Because a fragrant tongue in Dai Qiu's mouth has disappeared, only a small half of the root remains.

Because the person has died, the heart has lost its pulsation, and the blood is no longer flowing, so the amount of blood gushing out from the broken root of the tongue is not too much, which is enough for Lu Jinping to see the situation clearly.

Then Lu Jinping, with the help of Ye Qingqing, carefully took out all the clothes on the deceased's body, checked his body, and immediately found that there were obvious abrasion marks on the deceased's forearms and the back of the deceased's neck.

This kind of trace is all too familiar to a forensic doctor like Lu Jinping, who has investigated countless cases, and generally speaking, it is the trace left by the murderer when he grabbed the driver's neck from behind and pressed it to the ground, preparing to subdue the other party.

He took a look at the room, because the room was full of water, and the murderer couldn't keep the other party in the water, in that case, the other party would directly suffocate to death, so the most likely place should be the bed. That is, when the murderer said that Dai Qiu was sleeping in the bed, he suddenly came in and grabbed him by the neck to subdue him, so he left such a choke mark on the back of his neck. This kind of pinch mark can't be formed by itself, it should be an injury caused by someone else.

Lu Jinping took out his own special cotton swab and wiped it repeatedly, although the corpse had been soaked in water and washed by water, but because the time since the case happened was very short, if it was very hard at that time, it might have left some cells that fell off at the pinching marks. Once the cells are found, he has the means to extract the DNA and thus lock the killer.

After extracting the swab, Lu Jinping examined other parts of the body and found that the deceased's face was cyanotic and swollen, and there were needle-like bleeding spots on the eyelids. Cyanosis of the nails, these are typical signs of death by suffocation, could it be that Dai Qiu died because of suffocation? However, judging from the marks on the back of his neck, it was not enough to cause him to suffocate to death, and there must be another reason.

Examination of other parts of the body showed no specific signs. Her nakedness was examined, and no signs or evidence of sexual assault were found.

Now, the focus is on the mouth of the deceased.

He dissected her mouth, when the entire mouth was opened. He observed more clearly that most of the deceased's tongue had been cut off by sharp objects, and the severed end was still in the deceased's mouth, and there were multiple wounds in the mouth, and the remaining broken segment was a laceration.

Where is the tongue of the dead?

Although it was preliminarily concluded that the deceased died of suffocation, Lu Jinping still did not dare to make a conclusion about what caused the suffocation. He had to find further evidence, so he decided to dissect it.

Because the apparent condition of the deceased is related to suffocation. So Lu Jinping did not perform an autopsy step by step, but directly examined his respiratory tract, and when he opened it, he immediately found out how he died in the autumn - in the depths of the deceased's trachea, there was a small piece of tongue inserted, blocking the entire airway tightly!

Lu Jinping took out the small piece of tongue. Comparing the fracture with the broken tongue of the deceased's mouth, it was found that it could match, proving that this section was the deceased's own Dai Qiu.

How could this tongue enter the depths of her mouth and trachea?

Did she bite off her tongue herself, bite her tongue off in a madness, and choke on her trachea when she swallowed? But this speculation is not the same as a break in the tongue. For most of the tongue was clearly severed by a knife, not bitten.

Lu Jinping didn't have more time to think about this problem, he took the pinching marks on the back of the deceased's neck to extract swabs for testing, and at the same time he extracted the blood of the deceased as a comparison sample.

The results soon came out, and what was extracted from the neck of the deceased was a mixed fraction of the deceased and a stranger.

Lu Jinping immediately used the mixed sample separation method to isolate the DNA of strangers. Ended up getting DNA typing from strangers.

He immediately compared the results with the existing DNA database of Chunhualou that he had extracted earlier. The result flickered, prompting him to find a successful match, and after a careful look, Lu Jinping couldn't help but be shocked, because the results showed that the stranger's DNA was actually related to the DNA of the dead Drifting Snow Maiden who hanged herself, which means that they belong to direct blood relatives!

Because before this, he had taken some people's blood samples for analysis, so as to compare, especially the deceased, which is the basis for comparison, so he extracted and stored all the deceased's blood samples, and this time it was automatically compared with the DNA results of some suspects, and there was this unexpected result.

Lu Jinping's eyes immediately appeared as an image of a shriveled old lady who was slow to move and full of love for her granddaughter.

Mrs. Huang?

Could it be that Mrs. Huang was the murderer who killed Dai Qiu or caused his death?

Dai Qiu has gone crazy, and after she went crazy, the rich man Ma also emphasized that no murder weapon could be left in the house, so it should not be Dai Qiu himself who cut off his own tongue, judging from the current situation, it was Mrs. Huang.

Why did Mrs. Huang cut Dai Qiu's tongue? And later, why was Dai Qiu's tongue stuck in his trachea and suffocated him to death?

How did Mrs. Huang get into this courtyard? There are no stairs or places to step on around this wall, although the water rises to the base of the thigh, but it is still high from the wall, there is no way to turn over, how did this faltering old lady enter this courtyard? And how can you cut out the tongue of a mad young woman? I'm afraid this is not something that an ordinary old lady can do.

Lu Jinping immediately called Xiong Zhutou in, instructed him to take someone to control Mrs. Huang, waited for him to rush over to ask, and then hurriedly packed up the forensic investigation box. He wasn't going to continue the dissection of Dai Qiu's remaining body parts, it was not necessary now, and it was too late.

The rich man Ma and Niu **, the Burning Lamp Heavenly Master and others outside the door had heard that Xiong Zhutou was going to arrest Mrs. Huang, and they were all a little surprised, did Mrs. Huang have anything to do with this case? It's impossible, this old lady can't take care of herself, it's difficult to kill a chicken, how can she have a connection with the murderer, is it possible that she is an accomplice?

Seeing that Lu Jinping didn't speak, the rich man Ma and the others also hurriedly followed.

When I arrived at the snowy yard, I happened to bump into the bear catcher who came out of it, and said urgently: "Sir, that old lady Huang just went out, and the people inside said that they didn't know where they went, and she didn't say anything." ”

Lu Jinping said in a deep voice: "Search and arrest immediately, arrest if you find it, be careful, she is very dangerous." ”

Xiong Zhutou smiled: "What is the dangerous ...... of a shriveled old lady?" As soon as he said this, he saw Lu Jinping looking at him with a gloomy face, so he quickly swallowed the words behind him, hugged his fists and agreed, and ordered to arrest Mrs. Huang quickly, and once he found it, arrest him immediately.

The brigade quickly scattered around to look for Mrs. Huang, Lu Jinping thought about it, and then went into the main hall.

The main hall was originally a snowy bedroom, but now it has become a mourning hall, with white prayer flags hanging everywhere, and a coffin resting on a long wooden bench in the middle of the lobby. The lid of the coffin was still standing aside, and the coffin was covered with a white cloth.

Lu Jinping saw that there was a table in front of the coffin, and there was an incense burner and a copper basin for burning paper money on the table, so he lit three incense sticks, and after respectfully arching it, he inserted it into the incense burner without saying a word, and then turned around and asked the women: "Did Grandma Piaoxue go out just now?" I mean before that. ”

The two old women glanced at each other, winked at each other, and motioned to each other, and in the end, an older old woman accompanied her and said with a smile: "Yes, sir, Grandma Huang has been in and out for the past two days, and I don't know what I'm busy with. Just before, he had gone out before he went out, and when he came back, he covered his heart and looked very uncomfortable with his waist hunched. We asked her what was wrong? She waved her hand and said it was all right, and then went into the house, and came over for a while before coming out, and when she came out, she looked at ease and told us that she was going to go out, and let the good student look at the girl's mourning hall, and then she left. In a little while you will come. ”

Lu Jinping couldn't help but move in his heart and asked, "When he came back before, he covered his heart with his hands, and his expression was very painful, right?" ”

"Yes, I don't know if it's touching my heart or covering my stomach, anyway, it's my chest and abdomen, and it's very difficult to walk, and I almost fell into the water, or we went over to help her, and asked her and didn't say what's going on, and didn't let me call Langzhong, just said that it was good to sleep for a while, and went into the house."

Now Lu Jinping said: "You said earlier that she is always in and out these days, and I don't know what she is busy with, - what do you think she can be busy with?" ”

Several maids and the old woman shook their heads together.

Lu Jinping nodded, and was about to turn around to leave, when he suddenly sniffed, feeling that something was wrong, so he looked around, sniffed again, and then said, "The corpse of the Drifting Snow Girl is already broken, why don't you bury it yet." ”

The maid shook her head and said, "Grandma Huang won't let me, and she will only be buried after 7749 days of rituals." ”

"What about the monks and Taoists who do things?"

"It rained last night, and they all hid in the house."

"Why don't you nail the coffin to death, the stench is all in the air, can't you smell it?"

Several old women said to Lu Jinping with a wry smile: "It's not that we don't want to cover the coffin, it's that grandma won't let it, she said that it will be open like this, it won't be bad, so we can only do this, we also persuaded her, go into the ground for peace, even if you want to do things, you can do it after nailing the coffin, the body is going to be broken, isn't it blaspheming the dead." But Mrs. Huang didn't agree. ”

A trace of doubt flashed in Lu Jinping's eyes, and suddenly, his eyes gradually brightened, as if he had found a glimmer of light from the fog. (To be continued.) )
