Chapter VII Identification of the Dead
After receiving a call from Yang Zi, Mo Zhifeng's wife Liu Xiaoling hurriedly ended her work and rushed back to the city.
She first sent the students back to school, asked her colleagues to help take care of them, and waited for the parents to pick them up, but she didn't have time to go home and put down her luggage, so she hurried to the hospital.
When she saw her daughter Mo Linglong calling the police station because she saw a notice on TV about finding the deceased's relatives, she accidentally tripped and hit her head on the corner of the coffee table and was hit hard, and now she was lying unconscious on the hospital bed wrapped in thick gauze, and heard Yang Zi tell her that her husband Mo Zhifeng might have been killed, and the poor woman fainted in front of her eyes.
The doctor on the side hurriedly pressed her Zhongzhong, and injected her with an intravenous bolus of glucose, and Liu Xiaoling opened her eyes.
When she woke up, she looked around, saw her father-in-law, saw Yang Zi, saw the comrades in the property management and the doctor were all looking at her with concern, after her brain cleared up, her eyes fell on Yang Zi's face, grabbed his hand, and the first thing she said was: "I'm going to identify the body." ”
Yang Zi asked the doctor and learned that Mo Linglong had no signs of waking up yet, as for Liu Xiaoling, who was just emaciated due to overwork and the stimulation of hearing the unfortunate news, which caused her body to be weak and faint, it was no big deal, so she agreed to her request and called Lin Shanshan to prepare in advance.
Old Man Mo heard that he was going to identify the corpse, and he repeatedly asked to follow, Yang Zi was afraid that the old man would not be able to withstand the stimulation and something would happen, so he asked Liu Xiaoling's opinion.
Liu Xiaoling lowered her head and thought about it, and begged the old man softly: "Dad, don't go." Ling'er is still in the hospital, I need you to help me watch her. Besides, in case you ...... again" Liu Xiaoling suddenly whimpered and was speechless.
The old man listened to his daughter-in-law's words, and then looked at the poor granddaughter who was lying on the bed with tubes all over her body and was being monitored by medical equipment, and once again burst into tears, endured her grief, and nodded silently.
Yang Zi's eyes were also moist, he gritted his teeth, asked the comrades in the property management to help take care of the old and the young, and walked out of the hospital with Liu Xiaoling.
Coming to the morgue of the funeral home, Lin Shanshan, who got the news, was already waiting there with Qiqi, and the door of the morgue was opened by them, and there was a cold and dead smell inside.
Seeing Yang Zi coming with Liu Xiaoling, they walked into the door of the morgue together.
Walking past the rows of tightly closed freezers, thinking of the corpses lying lonely in the cabinets, some will soon turn into a wisp of smoke and leave the world, and some will lie here because they are unclaimed and do not know when they will be reincarnated, and everyone has an indescribable feeling in their hearts.
Qiqi took a few quick steps forward, opened the door of the freezer where the corpse that needed to be identified was stored this time, and a cold corpse covered with a white cloth was slowly pulled out and presented in front of them, Qiqi solemnly reached out and pulled Bai off a little, revealing the face of the deceased.
This corpse, which had been sorted out by Lin Shanshan and Qiqi, although there were no traces of broken limbs, but because the deceased had been severely injured in the head, his face still looked miserable.
Liu Xiaoling closed her eyes tightly, gritted her teeth, walked from behind Yang Zi to the edge of the freezer, and then lowered her head and glanced at the terrifying face of the corpse.
She was like being struck by lightning, and she had been disillusioned that maybe the police had made a mistake, and she couldn't help but fall on the corpse all of a sudden, crying and screaming: "Zhifeng~~!" ”
Yang Zi and Lin Shanshan, who were guarding her side, glanced at each other, knowing that the identity of the deceased could be confirmed.
Although this kind of scene has been experienced by the police and doctors for a long time, they still can't help but feel pain in their hearts.
They cooperated with each other left and right tacitly reaching out and half-supporting and half-pulling to set Liu Xiaoling up, Qiqi covered the white cloth, pushed the body back into place, and then closed the door of the freezer.
Liu Xiaoling cried loudly, her body seemed to be unable to bear her weight, and she was paralyzed on the ground, Yang Zi and Lin Shanshan supported her, letting her cry, and after a while, Liu Xiaoling stopped her sadness and turned to a quiet sob.
Lin Shanshan comforted her softly, and finally sighed before asking her, "Do you need to confirm it again?" ”
Liu Xiaoling cried so much that she couldn't speak, but nodded heavily.
Lin Shanshan gestured to Qiqi, and Qiqi opened the door of the freezer again.
This time, Liu Xiaoling calmed down a lot, she gently broke away from Yang Zi and Lin Shanshan's support, walked to the corpse, reached out and stroked Mo Zhifeng's cold face, let out a sigh, and then said with difficulty in a hoarse voice: "He has a black birthmark on his buttocks that is five minutes in size." ”
Lin Shanshan stepped forward to hold her body, and took her away from the corpse at a certain distance, Qiqi turned the corpse over, because the autopsy had been conducted, the clothes on the body had not been put on, so everyone could easily see that there was indeed a black birthmark on the buttocks of the corpse.
Liu Xiaoling covered her mouth again and began to cry, this scarred corpse no longer had any doubts, it was sure that it was the person she knew and fell in love with and shared the bed with.
Yang Zi and they are all sad for her on the side, her husband was brutally killed, leaving behind an elderly father, a daughter who does not know what to do, the burden of life will be on her alone, the road ahead is long and difficult, but no one can accompany and support each other...... Thinking of this, they all sighed secretly.
Lin Shanshan knew that she could no longer stay here, although the reality was cruel, Liu Xiaoling had to face it strongly no matter what, if she was allowed to stay here to see the injuries of the corpse, I was afraid that it would be even worse for her.
So she didn't let go of the hand holding Liu Xiaoling, and gently moved her to the door to leave, and at the same time comforted her in a soft voice: "Come, let's leave first." Don't worry, with our police, we will definitely find out the murderer and administer justice for you and your husband. You have to mourn, and there are old people and children who need you. ”
Liu Xiaoling is a people's teacher, she is usually knowledgeable and reasonable, and she knows that what Lin Shanshan said is the truth, so she no longer insists on staying here, and follows her support, and walks out of the door of the morgue step by step.
Hearing the sound of Qiqi closing the door, Liu Xiaoling remembered that she and her husband were separated from heaven and man from now on, and from now on, there would be no solid arm to shield herself from the wind and rain, and once again she was sad and cried bitterly.
At this time, the night was dark, the lights of thousands of homes were shining, and in the car that sent Liu Xiaoling to the hospital, the four people were silent, only Liu Xiaoling's occasional sobbing sound.
While driving, Yang Zi secretly made up his mind in his heart that no matter what kind of resistance there was in the investigation work, no matter how slim the clues to solving the case were, as long as he lived in this world, as long as he was still a people's policeman, he would definitely be indomitable, do his best to investigate and deal with the case, return justice to the victims, defend the light of the police, and guard the people's well-being.
