Chapter 44: Post-mortem
"Ning Xiang, you and Shuangshuang are waiting outside."
Lin Mumu noticed that when the corpse was carried in, Ning Xiang and Shuangshuang's faces changed, and when it came to Ning Yuan, there was no change on their faces.
Captain Lin glanced at Lin Mumu who was standing next to the corpse with some surprise, and saw that even if she was not a very wealthy person, it was not an ordinary small family, not to mention that the lady of this kind of door was looking at the dead, she could be scared half to death when she saw blood on weekdays, was this lady sure she wanted to stand here and watch the autopsy?
Lin Mumu didn't notice Captain Lin's gaze, and after the corpse was carried in, she took out a pair of gloves made of sheepskin from her body and put them on her hand, and before she could do anything, she immediately lifted the mat on the corpse.
Before Captain Lin could speak, he was choked in his throat in an instant, and he couldn't swallow or spit it out, which was really uncomfortable!
Lin Mumu's actions made everyone present stunned, and even Ning Yuan's calm eyes had a touch of surprise.
At the moment when she saw the appearance of the corpse, Lin Mumu was stunned for a moment, and she glanced back at Wang De.
Wang Dezheng was stunned, and suddenly felt Lin Mumu's gaze, and subconsciously shuddered.
He began an autopsy to check the pupils, mouth and nose of the deceased.
After the deceased's clothes were removed, Captain Lin and the servants both showed a look of surprise.
I saw that the deceased's body was covered with many light or serious scars, and his body was even more skinny.
"My lord, although there are many wounds on the deceased's body, none of these external injuries can cause death." After a quiet inspection, he said to Captain Lin.
Captain Lin's thick eyebrows furrowed. "Let's take a look at it." After all, if you die of taking the wrong medicine, you can only check what is in your stomach.
"No, you are already humiliating my mother, how can you still disembowel my mother, you are the protection of officials and officials, you just want to destroy my mother's body, I don't agree, I will never agree!" Wang De jumped up excitedly as soon as he saw that he was going to knife the corpse.
"If you don't find out, how can you tell how your mother died, if you make trouble, I'll let people take you back to the mansion now!" Captain Lin's face was very ugly, not because of Wang De's attitude, after all, the current people are still very old-fashioned, and there are very few people who can accept it, he is injured on the corpse of Qi, and those injuries are beaten out by someone at a glance, and he is very suspicious now, the person who beat people is Wang De!
In addition, Wang De has not said anything from just now to now, and his eyes are not even red, looking at the slightest sadness for his deceased mother.
Hearing Captain Lin say this, Wang De had to calm down even if he didn't want to, staring at the corpse on the wooden board with a pair of eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
It is not an idle person to be able to mix in the Jingzhao Yin Mansion, but I saw him raise and fall with a knife, and his hand cut the belly of the deceased neatly.
Lin Mumu didn't make a move, but just said lightly when he pretended to take out the stomach of the deceased. "The stomach should be empty."
She glanced up at her and cut her stomach with a knife, and she could clearly see that the stomach wall had been ground down thinly, and the inside was indeed empty.
Wang De's face turned white with fright the moment the body was cut open, and he turned around and didn't dare to look again.
"When did you get this medicine back from the drugstore?" Captain Lin said.
"Before, the day before yesterday, bought it the day before yesterday."
"And when did your mother die?"
"Early this morning, when I got up to serve my mother, I found that my mother was out of breath." Wang De replied quickly in a trembling voice, obviously not relieving himself from the picture he had just seen.
"In other words, from the day before yesterday when you bought the medicine back, until this morning you found out that your mother was out of breath, you have given your mother medicine during this period?"
"Yes, yes, I drank it all the time." Wang De replied without thinking.
"Impossible!" Lin Mumu said coldly. "Judging from the condition of the deceased's stomach, she has not dripped, according to what you said, you fed your mother medicine last night, and it is impossible for her stomach to be free of any residual medicine!"
"My mother hasn't eaten for a long time since she got sick, and the medicine is gone, where can it stay in my stomach." Wang Deqiang quibbled with himself.
The current autopsy technology is not so advanced, even if it is known that the stomach of the deceased is empty, but it cannot completely wash away the suspicion of the pharmacy, just like Wang De said, medicine is water, and it may be pulled out when you drink it, and it is normal if there is no residue.
He continued to look at other organs, and there was no more to gain.
"How?"
Seeing that he was about to stop, Captain Lin asked out loud.
"No anomalies were found other than an empty stomach." He shook his head.
"Why don't you let me see."
Just when Captain Lin was about to bring everyone back to the mansion, Lin Mumu suddenly spoke.
"You?!" Captain Lin looked surprised and disagreed. "You will perform an autopsy?!"
"Yes."
"My lord, my mother is already like this, how much humiliation do you have to make her suffer, you are making my mother die!" Wang De patted his thighs and cried.
Although the people who were stopped outside the door to watch the heat could not really see what was going on inside, they could hear the conversation inside.
A woman in the back house actually wants an autopsy!
In the face of everyone's doubts, Lin Mumu seemed very calm, as a person who has been a doctor since childhood, autopsy is a discipline, she has also practiced, not as good as a seasoned forensic doctor, but it is not bad.
"The most important thing now is to find out the real cause of death of the deceased, otherwise this case will not be resolved." After Lin Mumu finished speaking, he didn't care what they thought, and directly squatted down to check the corpse.
"This ......" Captain Lin wanted to say something, but seeing that Lin Mumu was directly on his side, he could only swallow the words back!
She had seen the condition of the corpse clearly when she was examined just now, and she wanted to focus on the head now.
With a solemn expression, she brushed the hair from the corpse away, her fingertips gently pressing on her scalp.
Her movements are meticulous, so meticulous that she doesn't miss any place.
The deceased's hair had almost fallen out and looked thin, and her hand paused slightly as she pressed to the deceased's temple.
In order to make her perception more accurate, she took off all the gloves on her hands.
Captain Lin's eyelids jumped when he saw this, and his expression was a little complicated when he looked at Lin Mumu.
"Borrow a knife." Lin Mumu stretched out his hand.
The ghost sent the god and handed her the knife in his hand.
Lin Mumu carefully shaved off the hair on the temple, then lightly drew a cross on it, and then pressed it gently, and soon a needle stained red by blood was revealed.
She reached out and pulled the needle out of her temple.
This scene shocked everyone who watched!
The pin that had been pulled out was as long as their middle finger!
Wang De didn't dare to look at the autopsy picture, he kept standing with his back to him, and he didn't know what the situation was now, but he obviously felt that the atmosphere had changed a little, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, and he turned around boldly, and saw Lin Mumu holding a blood needle in his hand and looking at him with half-squinted eyes.
Wang De was so frightened that he staggered back two steps and almost fell down the stone steps in the pharmacy.
Just now, that look in his eyes just now looked like a demon who was asking for his life!
Lin Mumu concocted another silver needle on the other side of the corpse's temple, and that's it, even the back of the head and the Heavenly Spirit Cover were inserted with silver needles!
This is to hate the dead to see Hades quickly, and to stick four silver needles into her head without a single mistake!
"Say, what the hell is the silver needle in your mother's head!" Captain Lin grabbed Wang De's shirt and screamed angrily.
"I, I don't know, I don't know you, you framed me, I don't know what needles are ......" Wang De panicked when he heard it, and he was frightened by Lin Mumu's eyes just now, his head was blank for a while, and he turned around and wanted to run.
"Arrest me this brute who murdered my mother!" Captain Lin grew up in a poor family, his father died early, and when he was ten years old, his mother had to sell his body in order to earn money for him to buy food, but he was killed by a butcher for the first time.
Captain Lin didn't think that her mother was shameless, but pity his mother for being dragged to death by himself at a young age, and it was precisely because of this that he hated unfilial people.
What Wang De did was obviously stepping on his bottom line.
Lin Mumu put the bloody needle on the white silk cloth on his hand and stood up, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on his fingertips.
That free look is like wiping your mouth after a full meal.
"I, I didn't, I didn't harm my mother, my mother just died after taking the medicine from the pharmacy, it was their pharmacy that sold fake medicines, you, you colluded to frame me, I knew, I knew ......" Wang De was a little sober, he shouted in a panic.
"Official, the matter of this fake medicine really needs to be investigated." Lin Mumu suddenly spoke.
Captain Lin frowned, and subconsciously felt that Lin Mumu had an idea in his heart.
"I do have to check."
Shopkeeper Zhao listened behind the counter, and his heart was raised.
"Madam, how can there be fake medicines in our pharmacy, this is obviously someone is framing us!"
"Shopkeeper Zhao, don't worry, since it is a frame-up, then I have to find out more clearly and take out all the medicines in the pharmacy."
The servant had already wrapped the body and carried it to the cart with the two officials, and the entire medicine hall was vacated.
Captain Lin asked people to go to the medical hall on the next street to find three doctors to discern the medicine.
Everyone watched the excitement wave after wave and was reluctant to leave, so they had to see the end.
Lin Mumu picked up a stool in the medicine hall and sat down, and Ning Xiang didn't know where to get her a cup of hot tea.
"Why doesn't this ginseng look right? The taste of this ginseng is also too light. ”
"This angelica looks a little strange."
The three doctors smelled, tasted and watched, and it took almost an hour or so to see them all.
The official sent out all the medicinal herbs that they looked at as problematic.
Every time they chose the same, Shopkeeper Zhao's face turned a little whiter, until the last old doctor took out a large meat lingzhi, and he sat down on the ground.
Lin Mumu drank tea for a long time, looking at the selected medicinal herbs with a faint expression.
"Madam, what's wrong with those medicinal herbs?" Both looked strange from the sidelines, and those pills looked no different from others.
Lin Mumu put down the teacup, picked up a ginseng that was put aside and smelled it. "Of course, a layman can't see anything wrong, but an insider can smell it as soon as he smells it, this is ginseng, it's not fake, it's just that this is ginseng that has been used."
"What? Used, used? ”
Zhao's shopkeeper is like ashes!
Why, why can the three princesses even see this!
How the hell did she know that he did it so seamlessly?!
