However, before a few people in the vicinity were stunned by the appearance of the female corpse, their eyes took the lead in looking at Xu Chu.

And this time, everyone's surprise was no longer Xu Chu's superb autopsy skills. But the appearance of the female corpse lying in the gorgeous coffin is really a little similar to Lord Xu Chuxu.

Mo said that Xiao Qinglang and Tang Qiaozheng were waiting for others, it was Xu Chu himself, and at first glance, the face of the female corpse was slightly stunned. Although she didn't care much about her appearance, she could see that there were indeed many similarities between the two of them.

Xu Chu is a puppet, and even learned the method of one-hand bone examination, just looking at it is enough to imagine the appearance of the deceased before his death. And under the slightly dim texture, what kind of skeleton is it, naturally it is difficult for Xu Chu.

Therefore, there is no need for others to question it, she has a guess in her own heart, probably she and the woman in the coffin should be inextricably linked. Not to mention whether it will be such a bloody thing as a mother and daughter, at least the two of them should also be related.

Genetically speaking, there are many laws in the inheritance of people's five senses. For example, double eyelids, nose bridge and nose tip. There is also the so-called nephew like an uncle, which actually has some truth. Now, with similar appearances, how can Xu Chu not be suspicious?

What she could think of, Xiao Qinglang could naturally think of, but in the spirit of putting the case first, Xiao Qinglang did not expose the matter.

Knowing that she is like Xiao Qinglang, how could she not think that because it involves her life experience and the secret of Xu Yanzuo, she will never avoid it. Even if she gives up this autopsy, she will inevitably find a way to continue the investigation.

Instead of letting Xu Chu go to great lengths to investigate the case in the realm of the capital, it would be better to put her under his nose, at least under his care, which would also be more reassuring.

As for the rules, they are just set by people, and even if they are broken, it is not too difficult to do so.

At this time, Xiao Qinglang had not yet realized that his love and love for Xu Chu had already exceeded his initial tolerance. Now, he can be regarded as naked connivance.

"It may be found out why this woman died?" Xiao Qinglang walked to Xu Chu's side, and suddenly called back Xu Chu's somewhat fluctuating mood.

Xu Chu was taken aback by the coldness, and he came back to his senses. She took a deep breath, took the gloves and mask from the toolbox, and said as she put them on, "I'll talk about it a priori." ”

Xiao Qinglang nodded and said no more.

And Tang Qiaozheng and a group of guards were surprised that Xu Chu looked similar to the female corpse, but when he heard her say that he wanted to conduct an autopsy, he didn't have any inappropriate thoughts. At most, a few people sighed in their hearts, it is really the most strange in the world, and I don't know how Lord Xu will feel when he looks at a corpse that looks so similar to himself.

Xu Chu didn't know what everyone thought, and in fact, she didn't have the heart to think about it. Now, she was concentrating on the corpse, as if she were looking at some rare treasure.

This means that those present are already familiar with her temperament, otherwise they are afraid that they will be slandered in their hearts.

"The deceased, female, was about four feet six inches long, and was emaciated." Xu Chu said while checking the deceased's head and other acupuncture points, and after finding that there was nothing unusual, he said, "The time of death is at least more than half a year." ”

"How is this possible?" Before Inspector Cao and the others could speak, Tang Qiaozheng on the side was surprised, he looked at Xu Chu, and then at the female corpse, and said with a strange expression, "Lord Xu, are you wrong?" If you have been dead for more than half a year, how can you be like a living person? ”

Although he looked at the color of the female corpse was also a little terrifying, he had to admit that if it weren't for the wrong environment, he would definitely think that the female corpse was a seriously ill person and not a dead person.

Xu Chu glanced at Tang Qiaozheng, got up and tapped the skin of the female corpse, and explained, "There is a saying among the corpses that it is a preservation corpse, which includes peat tanned corpses, dried corpses and corpse wax. ”

She said as simply as she could: "Among them, the peat tanned corpse, I think people who have seen the case file between me and the prince in Lotus Villa in Yunzhou City should be no stranger. The bodies of the three killed family found in Lotus Villa have been well preserved in acidic soil and peat bogs for a long time. The dried corpse, like the female corpse in the coffin now, is a corpse that is preserved after death when the corpse loses moisture rapidly, the reproduction of microorganisms is hindered, the skin is black-brown leather-like, and the soft tissues are dry, atrophied and hardened. ”

"But dried corpses, which are usually formed in dry, coarse-grained soil and sand, or in tall buildings, should not be found here. So, I speculate that the corpse must have been moved here after it became a dried corpse. ”

"As for the time of death of the deceased at least six months, it is because it takes six months to a year for the adult dry corpse to be formed under the right environment. Otherwise, the corpse will decompose normally and even ossify"

Dried corpses are generally formed in a hot and dry environment, preferably in a place with excellent air circulation. Now, it is clear that there is no environment for the female corpse to dry up in the dark room. So, it's not hard to be sure that someone moved the body.

After Xu Chu finished speaking, he continued to bend down and carefully inspect the subtleties such as the hair and ears of the female corpse, until he found that the fingertips of the deceased had been completely smoothed, and there were many small scars on the dry palms. After a moment, she frowned and said in a deep voice, "I suspect that the deceased was buried alive, and then by chance it became a dried corpse and was preserved." It's just that the specific cause of death and the time of death need to be examined in detail to be sure. ”

Although it was a dried corpse, because it had been dead for too long, it was difficult for her to determine more information under the current technical conditions in addition to the autopsy. For example, whether the deceased was really buried alive, or whether he had taken something or whether he died of sudden illness like the original princess, and whether he had eaten before he died, etc., these can only be answered by autopsy.

Inspector Cao and the others were a little stunned when they heard this, but they were more surprised by Xu Chu's understanding of the corpse. To be honest, when they first saw the female corpse in the coffin, they were also in a trance and frightened. After all, such a strange corpse was really the only one they had ever seen in their lives, and if it weren't for Xu Chu's words, I was afraid that they would only think that they had collided with some ghost.

Inspector Cao glanced at each other, and when they saw that Lord Xu, who was completely focused on the corpse, was still carefully examining the corpse, the respect in his heart came spontaneously. Of course, there is also the joy of many scholars in the respect.

These days of acting with Lord Xu, they really feel that they have gained a lot. Even they can think that their future will be smooth in the future. After all, many of the things they learned from Lord Xu about autopsy are things that others may not be able to understand in their lifetimes.

Although it is not strange that Lord Xu is young, how can he know so many things about autopsies, and the methods of autopsy are as sophisticated as those of them who have dealt with corpses for most of their lives. But no matter how incredible it may be, the facts are in front of them, and they cannot afford not to believe it.

What's more, instead of doubting Lord Xu's origin, or doubting the prince's choice. It's better to take advantage of the time when Lord Xu is not hiding his selfishness, so that he can learn some skills.

Xu Chu sighed and said with emotion, "It's a pity, it's a shame." ”

Such a woman must have been pampered by someone before her death, so that her black hair is still black and bright after such a long time, and there is no sense of frizz and dryness. Even the makeup on the face is clearly visible.

Suddenly, Xu Chu's eyes froze, and his gaze fell on the deceased's face again. It stands to reason that even if it is a completely preserved dried corpse, it will not be able to achieve such a clear makeup. It's not so much preserved as it looks like it's just been smeared.

Thinking of this, her eyes changed slightly, and finally she simply took off her gloves and rubbed her fingers against the face of the female corpse. Sure enough, the hands were smooth and dry, and when I looked at it again, I could clearly see the white powdery gouache and delicate rouge on the fingertips.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Qinglang saw that Xu Chu suddenly pondered, and couldn't help but take a step forward and follow her gaze, but saw that her fingers were covered with a layer of snow white. Although he had never studied the woman's gouache, he could also see that the gouache on the face of the dead body in front of him was different from ordinary inferior gouache.

Normally, it is not easy to put on makeup after death, let alone the well-preserved but somewhat dry corpse in front of you. If you use inferior rouge gouache, I'm afraid it is impossible to make such a fake makeup.

Xu Chu saw that he had an idea, so he didn't explain too much. She carefully took the blade and scraped it back and forth on the corpse's surface until the gouache applied to it onto the white cloth that had already been attached.

"This makeup doesn't look like it's common in the market, and the gouache is fine, the fragrance is unique, and even the extremely domineering nutmeg fragrance still has a light fragrance, so I guess it must be a good gouache. The prince might as well send someone to investigate from now on, and see where the shops selling rouge gouache in the capital and near the capital have launched such makeup and gouache. ”

Xu Chu was solemn in her heart, for her, just the clues revealed by these subtleties were enough for people to delve deeper. If you can find the person who put makeup on the deceased, you may be able to find the truth about the whole thing.

"I suspect that the man who applied makeup to the deceased was a good man, at least he was good at women's makeup."

So, even if it was a dried corpse, the man could dress it up like a living person rather than a horrible.

Xiao Qinglang looked at the female corpse in the coffin with heavy eyes, and said coldly after a while, "No need to investigate, this makeup is a unique palace makeup of the harem when the first emperor was born." Later, because Dong Guifei loved her, the people below flattered her, so she changed the color of the palace makeup slightly, and changed its name to concubine makeup. ”
