"Ahem, ahem."

George Carter lay on the ground with red eyes and coughed hoarsely like a broken bellows.

At that moment just now, he almost thought that he was going to die of lack of oxygen to his brain caused by suffocation.

He could even imagine his own cold corpse lying on its back on the same cold dissection table in the Forensic Research Room of the Frankfurt Police Station, staring at the ceiling with long-lost eyes, waiting for those familiar colleagues to perform the autopsy.

Fortunately, none of this happened, and the crazy and powerful old woman in front of him did not directly break his neck.

Instead, he was spared... Temporarily.

"Little brother, why is your face red?"

Li Ang pulled the forensic doctor by the collar and lifted him up, and asked warmly, "Are you the smallest and reddest 'wave' in the cosplay Teletubbies?" ”

"No, it's not!"

George Carter, who is 1.8 meters tall, was directly lifted into the air by Leon, and shook his head in horror: "I can cooperate with whatever you want!" ”

"yes, that's the attitude of cooperation."

Leon smiled, stuffed the forensic doctor into the sofa, grabbed the steel hollow baseball bat from the other party's hand, and easily twisted it into twist with both hands like hydraulic pliers.

It's not something that humans can do at all.

The forensic doctor's eyes almost popped out, he looked at Leon in disbelief, and stammered, "You... Are you one of them? ”

He paused for a moment, and took a good look at the appearance of Catherine Raphael's elderly woman that Leon was wearing at the moment, and his soul was almost frightened, "I recognize you, you are the other day..."

Suddenly, as if he realized something, he quickly closed his mouth.

"You know me?"

Li Ang raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Looking at your expression, the cause of Erin's death involves a big secret, so that you can even give up your own life, and you don't dare to say it."

But..."

He picked up the twist-shaped baseball bat that had fallen to the ground, pointed to the ceiling, and grinned silently.

A wave of despair welled up in George Carter's heart, and he understood what Leon was referring to - his family was still upstairs, and if he insisted on not saying it.... The consequences are unimaginable.

The medical examiner begged for mercy: "If I say it, they won't let me go..."

"If you don't say it, I won't let you go."

Leon smiled and said, "If you do, maybe there will be no concept of 'them' from now on." ”

“... All right. ”

George Carter slumped on the sofa as if he had been drained of all his strength, and said leisurely: "The woman in the photo is called Erin Raphael."

A week ago, she was found collapsed outside an abandoned and dilapidated factory, with a few empty compound reagents on her arm.

Frankfurt officials accepted the case and asked me to dissect her and give an autopsy report. ”

Erin Raphael... Have you been dead for a week?

There was no sadness or joy between Li Ang's eyebrows, but an inexplicable irritability surged in his heart.

"Go on."

He urged coldly.

"Okay."

George Carter took a deep breath and said, "I thought it was just an ordinary incident of an injection compound overdose – quite common in a big city like Frankfurt."

But during the autopsy, I found that Erin Rafael had died of internal bleeding long before the injection of the reagent. ”

"Internal bleeding?"

"Yes."

"As a medical examiner, I'd rather have her die of carotid hemorrhage — two round hole-like wounds in her carotid artery from where the blood went out," said George Carter with some difficulty.

In addition to this, she... There were wounds on the body, a lot of wounds, all kinds of new wounds. ”

To make an experienced old forensic doctor, accustomed to life and death, describe it in such vague sentences, and Leon could imagine what a terrifying scene it was.

The two round hole-like wounds on the neck, are they blood? The name of this mission is "Bloody Dawn".

Leon waved his hand, "Go on." ”

"Whew," George Carter licked his dry lips, "and after I handed in the autopsy report, I chatted with the other colleagues.

learned that the abandoned factory had held a mobile nightclub party called Rex Party before that,

Erin Raphael went to the mobile nightclub with her friends, and the next day she was found dead outside the factory, and her best friend disappeared and disappeared.

I thought this was some gang of people who came up with it -- some of the gangs that came from Mexico never knew what the bottom line was.

Unexpectedly, a few hours after I handed in my report, I was invited by my superiors to his office for an interview. ”

"Appointment?" Li Ang sneered: "Let me guess, is there something wrong with the autopsy report?" ”

"That's right." George Carter smiled wryly and nodded, "The superiors tactfully told me that there was something wrong with this report, and that I ignored the extent to which the compound had killed Erin Raphael, which was the main cause of her death.

Generally speaking, this is rarely the case in the medical examiner's office in Frankfurt – at least in the ten years I've been working, I've never seen such a tactful request from a superior. ”

Li Ang narrowed his eyes, looked at the other party's expression, and asked casually, "And then?" ”

The medical examiner bit the chapped skin on his lip and said, "I tried to argue with him at first, and I got into a big fight, and finally he angrily told me to get out.

As I walked back to my office, I heard a commotion in the bureau..."

He glanced at Leon and said hesitantly, "... You try to break in, wanting to see your daughter. ”

Li Ang raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Let me guess, my wish has not come true." ”

"Yes."

George Carter smiled wryly: "The superiors let the security personnel blow you out on the grounds of disturbing the order." On the way back to the office, he directly warned me that this incident was not a joke and that there was a secret behind Erin Raphael's body that I absolutely could not afford. ”

"Are you cowardly?"

“... Yes, I gave in. ”

George Carter struggled to say, "My friends in the bureau told me that the Rex Party was hosted by a bunch of... The children of the rich who really stand at the top of the city's food chain.

They can even make my world disappear as long as they move their fingers to the phone. ”

He paused for a moment, and said quietly: "I modified the autopsy record to make it a natural death, and my superiors praised me.

Apart from... The other day you were trying to storm the authorities and the medical examiner's office..."

After that, George Carter glanced at Leon's sad and unhappy face slightly, and said with difficulty: "According to the management, the corpses that have died of natural causes and have been sealed will be returned to the families of the deceased immediately.

But just yesterday, the corpse of Erin Raphael.... Inside the freezer in the office, missing. ”
