Chapter 178: Is She True or False?

The news that Qu Qiluo had come back from the dead and returned to Qufu soon spread throughout the streets and alleys of Xiangling Town.

Everyone was surprised, and they all watched around Qufu, wanting to see if it was a gimmick made by Qufu, or if it was really resurrected.

After all, this has never happened.

Some people even said that this was the blessing of the gods, so Qu Qiluo would come back safe and sound.

For a while, the entire Xiangling Town was talking about this matter, and all kinds of rumors spread among the people.

In fact, not only them, but even Qu Youying was very surprised, which can be said to be incomprehensible.

Because she believed that Mu Jingzhu and Shui Linze would not casually find a corpse and come back to pretend to be Qu Qiluo, and Aunt Sun had also seen the corpse at that time, although it was scorched, the characteristics that should be on the body were the same.

"Jing Candle, where did you find Kira's body at that time?"

Because of Qu Qiluo's return, all the things in Qu Mansion were withdrawn, and the people who came to worship also dispersed after Qu Qiluo left the mourning hall.

Only Mu Jingzhu followed Qu Youying back to her courtyard, and Yun Shu made tea for the two, took snacks, and put them on the stone table in the courtyard.

Mu Jingzhu recalled the situation at that time and said, "It was after the forest outside Shuiwu City that we found the place that Aunt Sun said at that time, where there were many horseshoe prints and wheels, facing all directions, and then it was Shui Linze who thought that on the eastern mountain, there were indeed people who said that there were a few outsiders occupying a mountain, but as for what kind of business, he didn't know. So we went east, but before we could reach our destination, we found a charred corpse in a dilapidated courtyard. I identified that the charred corpse had only been dead for a long time, and the features of the body were similar to those of Qu Qiluo, so I brought it back, intending to let Aunt Sun confirm it. ”

"Later, Aunt Sun decided that it was Qu Qiluo?"

Mu Jingzhu nodded, "Originally, I wanted you to conduct an autopsy to further confirm." But Aunt Sun refused to let you touch it. ”

"She'll be weird." Qu Youying's mouth was full of ridicule, she held the warm teacup in both hands, and said, "At that time, I did intend to go to the autopsy, but who knew that something like that would happen, so it was delayed." You say, could it be that Qu Qiluo didn't die at all, but acted in a scene with Aunt Sun? Or is it true that Qu Qiluo died, but someone pretended to be her and returned to Qu Mansion? ”

Because at present, only these two speculations are the most likely, and Qu Youying will not believe that a person like Qu Qiluo will be blessed by the gods!

"Yes or no, just check it out."

"Okay." Qu Youying suddenly leaned closer to him, blinked her big black eyes, and said, "Although I don't have a good relationship with this sister, after all, we are sisters, and there are still many things that can confirm our relationship." ”

Mu Jingzhu frowned slightly and asked, "Do you want to use a drop bone?" ”

Qu Youying grinned, shook her head and said, "You know, this method doesn't actually identify anything, as long as it's blood, dripping in some parts of the bone, it will penetrate into it." ”

Mu Jingzhu nodded, although they had used this method to solve a case, but it was purely for those who didn't know.

Those who really study medicine and know how to perform an autopsy will know that in fact, this method does not identify anything.

"And what do you think of?"

"Anyway, I'll know when I go to see it at night."

Because of Qu Qiluo's return, the corpse was placed somewhere in the backyard, and because it was a corpse, no one wanted to guard it.

When night came, there was no one there.

Qu Youying, dressed in black plain clothes, went there with Mu Jingzhu.

It was pitch black all around, and there was no point of light except for the light of the moonlight.

Mu Jingzhu held her hand and walked all the way forward, pushing open the room where the corpse was placed.

Qu Youying walked in, and after closing the door, she took out a fire fold and a candle from her arms and lit them on the side of the corpse.

Mu Jingzhu stood aside and guarded her.

"Come to think of it, I haven't looked at her body since I knew she was dead."

She was telling the truth, and for various reasons, she really hadn't seen it. At this moment, the white cloth on the corpse was lifted, and what caught my eye was an unrecognizable face and a charred black body.

Qu Youying glanced at it, pointed to the corpse and asked, "This is what you brought back?" ”

Mu Jingzhu didn't answer immediately, but carefully confirmed it, and then nodded, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's all burned like this, how did Aunt Sun decide that this person is Qu Qiluo?"

The corpse in front of him can be said to have been burned very thoroughly, just like the fire in Shuifu at the beginning.

Qu Youying couldn't tell Qu Qiluo from the surface, but at that time, she did hear from the scholar's mouth that it was Aunt Sun who confirmed the identity of the deceased.

"Here."

Mu Jingzhu stepped forward and lifted the corpse's left arm, and on the inside of her arm, although the skin was burned, it was not burned, and a layer of ash was exposed.

On it, there is a very clear trace.

"At that time, she said that it was Qu Qiluo's birthmark, and she insisted that it was her, so we didn't suspect it. But—" Mu Jingzhu's expression became serious as he said this, "But, as a mother who saw her daughter die, when she saw the so-called corpse, she almost couldn't come forward to confirm that it was complete. But I remember that although Aunt Sun was crying at that time, she looked at the whole body of the corpse little by little, and finally saw this birthmark on the inside of her arm to confirm her identity. ”

"Indeed." Qu Youying agreed with this very much, "When we were at Lao Taijun's place at that time, she was so anxious that she went crazy just because Qu Qiluo was taken away, how could she be so rational to look at a body that might be her daughter." There's a problem here. ”

Qu Youying took out a piece of cloth from her arms, spread it out on the side of the corpse, and took out a knife from it.

She carefully cut off the unburned piece of skin with the birthmark, and then began to perform an autopsy on the body.

Mu Jingzhu was accompanying her on the side, and in the place where she couldn't see clearly, she brought the candle closer, and neither of them spoke, but they still cooperated so tacitly.

After about half an hour, Qu Youying stopped what she was doing, frowned, looked at the corpse, and didn't say a word.

"What did you find?"

Mu Jingzhu knew her too well, so whenever she showed such a puzzled expression, he knew that she had found something contradictory or strange.

"Although we look at Aunt Sun's behavior, we feel that this may not be Qu Qiluo. After all, it is a coincidence that the whole corpse was so charred, but the birthmark was not burned. ”

Qu Youying's voice was very slow, and when she spoke, her eyes were always staring at the corpse, and her expression was extremely serious.

"But the result of your autopsy is that she matches Qu Qiluo's characteristics?"

When Mu Jingzhu said this, he guessed from her expression, but he was not completely sure.

But when he saw Qu Youying's eyes nodding at him, his heart couldn't help but be stained with a thick layer of fog.

"Is it really Qu Qiluo?"

He believed Qu Youying's judgment, just as Qu Youying believed in his case.

It's just that in this way, Aunt Sun's behavior at that time was incomprehensible.

"I don't think so, but Qu Qiluo once fractured the bone of his hand when he was a child, and although he was connected later, his fingers were not very flexible. Also, she has lost one toe than others since she was born, and Aunt Sun hid this from everyone, and I found out by chance. I just checked, and both of them, this corpse, are in line. ”

Mu Jingzhu went to see Qu Qiluo's foot, and the little toe of his left foot was indeed absent.

Although the corpse was charred, he could tell that it was not cut off, but born mutilated.

"So, now this Qu Qiluo is fake."

"But what do you say about Aunt Sun's behavior of seeing Qu Qiluo's corpse at that time?" Qu Youying said puzzledly, "Do you think there is such a possibility, that is, Aunt Sun and Qu Qiluo co-starred in a scene, she knew that Qu Qiluo was not dead, and what you found was only a corpse to replace her, but in order to let you determine the identity of the deceased, you deliberately left that birthmark?" ”

Mu Jingzhu glanced at her, but shook his head, not agreeing.

He said, "If you guess, then why is this Qu Qiluo coming back now?" Why did she come back when she left with a fake death? This is one of them. Second, although Aunt Sun and Qu Qiluo don't like you, and they didn't get anything when they went to Shuifu this time, although they are unwilling, but the two of them are by no means people who forbear and have a long-term vision, they only care about their immediate interests, and they are eager for quick success, how can it be possible to operate such a meticulous drama in a short period of time. ”

Mu Jingzhu's words made Qu Youying speechless, she didn't expect so much, so fine, but every word Mu Jingzhu said was very reasonable.

She pursed her lips, took off her gloves, and asked more and more puzzled, "So what's going on here?" She looked at the body again and said, "I just touched her cheekbone." Her facial bones had been filled, and there were so many fewer bones in it that she couldn't draw her skin at all. The other party felt that even if we knew that the identity of this person was suspicious, we would not be able to draw the skin and make the final determination. ”

"Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, and there will always be a time when flaws are exposed."

Just when the two of them were staring at each other and thinking about this, Mu Jingzhu suddenly noticed that someone was approaching, blew out the candle in his hand with one hand, turned around and went to Qu Youying's side, protected her in his arms, and hid in the corner of the cabinet in the corner.

"What's wrong? Is someone coming? ”

Before Qu Youying could speak, she smelled the smell of diesel.

She was a little puzzled, "This is not a firewood house, how can there be the smell of diesel?" ”

"Not good!"

Mu Jing's eyes were shocked, and before the words fell, a raging fire ignited outside, and the sultry breath rushed towards him.
