In this way, it can be said that it is basically certain that the deceased is a jade girl who is good at playing the pipa.

However, after the identity of the deceased was determined, what puzzled her was the cause of death and what happened when the water pavilion was burning.

Xu Chu was silent for a moment, if she remembered correctly, they were called by a scream from the subordinate. When I arrived, I saw that in the water pavilion, the woman with her hair was stiff and weird, holding the pipa and playing with it, and she also showed a strange smile.

Immediately afterwards, the paper people hanging high in the water pavilion burned, and at the same time, the women in the pavilion were burned into a ball of fire.

Stiff posture...... Weird and strange laugh...... The zombie that still exists after being incinerated......

"Burned...... With hair dishevelled...... Could it be that the deceased was burned, not because the murderer was worried about what marks on her body, but because it was simply to cover her face? Xu Chu was silent, talking to himself and guessing. Suddenly, she saw the dissected muscles against the plain gloves. "Is it?"

In the flash of light, she seemed to have figured out something, and reached out with a post-mortem knife to re-cut the muscles that had just been peeled off.

"Bring another lamp!" Xu Chu said with a little excitement.

Xiao Qinglang couldn't leave at this time, and directly raised his head and motioned for Xiao Mingzhu and Wei Guang to take all the lights. These lamps were originally extremely bright glass lamps, but now they all gathered in front of the corpse, but they illuminated Xu Chu's eyes as bright as day.

"Sure enough." Xu Chu took a deep breath, kept moving in his hands, and directly turned the autopsy knife to the head of the corpse.

I saw that her knife quickly peeled off the charred flesh of her skull, and then looked up at Xiao Qinglang, her eyes were clear but obviously pressed excitedly, and said, "Childe, can I borrow your short sword?" ”

Xiao Qinglang's originally calm face relaxed, and he raised his eyebrows and glanced at her. His own weapons are rarely revealed in front of people, so they can be regarded as artifacts. If it weren't for the fact that his own affairs were too dangerous, I am afraid that my brother would not be willing to give him the fish intestine sword forged by Master Ou Yezi. Unexpectedly, the famous sword that everyone only heard of but did not see his body was now a convenient tool in Xu Chu's hands.

Before, it was to pick open the burnt purse, but now I don't know what she is going to do.

However, Xiao Qinglang saw her holding the smooth head with one hand, looking expectantly and hopefully, and subconsciously didn't want to hand over the short sword. This hunch is a bit bad......

Seeing that he was still not moving, Xu Chu couldn't help but tilt his head and call again: "Childe? ”

In the end, Xiao Qinglang still did not escape her swarthy and stubborn eyes, and reluctantly removed the short sword from the scabbard and put it in her hand. However, before he could ask what he was going to do, he saw that Xu Chu had already slashed the famous sword with a sharp blade like clay on the skull in his hand.

She moved very carefully, but it was aimed at the skull. As for the short sword in his hand, at the moment of the craniotomy, it was indiscriminately stuffed back into Xiao Qinglang's hand.

Not to mention how Wei Guang and the others often followed Xiao Qinglang, and those who were familiar with his temperament and the origin of the short sword gasped. Even Xiao Mingzhu and Hua are not sick, and they also chuckled in their hearts, even if they don't know it again, they also know that the origin of the weapons that can be carried by Xiao Qinglang is naturally extraordinary......

But before they came back to their senses, they saw that Xu Chu's furrowed brows had been stretched, and a burning smile appeared on his condensed face, "People are frozen to death!" ”

"Moreover, the time of death should have been two hours ago, that is, ...... We just left the Fairview Garden. ”

Xu Chu glanced at Xiao Mingzhu, who came over to learn from the teacher, and pressed the exposed muscles with tweezers and autopsy knives in a slightly better mood, and then went all the way to the heart and lungs, "The muscles are bright red, and the color of the left ventricle is brighter than the color of the right ventricle." In addition, brown or dark brown diffuse hemorrhagic spots can be seen along the blood vessels of the gastric mucosa, and celiac ganglion congestion are obvious features of freezing to death. ”

Under the candlelight, it was evident that the right ventricle was somewhat dark red. According to Xu Chu, this was because the deceased inhaled cold air before his death.

"What's more, the meninges are congested and edematous, and the skull bone sutures are fragile and show signs of being frozen." Xu Chu raised his eyebrows, and his eyes obviously burst out with a look that ordinary people couldn't understand. She quickly pointed the autopsy knife at the place she had just examined, and finally carefully lifted the open head, "This is it, normally speaking, when it is cold and snowy outside, these things in the head will become the largest form, and then they will crumble." Naturally, in this case, the person is also very likely to freeze to death. ”

And the reason why the murderer burned people is probably to confuse everyone. Then, the results of her examination led to the wrong place.

After all, the face and posture of a person who freezes to death are inherently different. First, because people who freeze to death often have anti-heat induction before death, and will feel hazy warmth when they are on the verge of death, they often smile and have bright red bodies, and even undress. Therefore, once the murderer has burned it, these phenomena will disappear completely, and the body can be curled up by the cold, and the cause of the fire can be pressed to the cause of the fire.

In fact, his abacus was not wrong, if she hadn't been bold enough to dissect and even open her skull to check it, and she didn't taboo how the charred corpse made people sick, I was afraid that she would really think that the deceased died in front of everyone.

Xiao Qinglang's eyes swirled on the corpse, and then fell on Xu Chu's face, and suddenly asked, "Can you find out if the deceased's hands and feet are bound or not?" ”

Xiao Mingzhu on the side didn't wait for Xu Chu to speak, his eyes widened in disbelief and said with some unevenness: "How is this possible, third uncle, you are deliberately embarrassing Sister Chu, I dare to say that even those inspectors in the capital may not be more detailed and accurate than Sister Chu's inspection." As for this charred charcoal-like corpse, how can you look at the scars of the binding......"

Xiao Qinglang raised his head calmly, his eyes were calm and looked at Xiao Mingzhu without any ups and downs. After a while, Xiao Mingzhu, who was still babbling just now, lowered her head silently, pouted and whispered, "Okay, I just don't talk much." ”

Xu Chu glanced at the wrist of the corpse, because it had been burned, so he couldn't see the original appearance at all. However, she is not embarrassed.

In fact, sometimes, it's not that the examiners who have done or seen countless corpses are incompetent, but that they have too many concerns. And this concern, in addition to the worry about the hidden circumstances behind the case and the room left for self-preservation, is more of a taboo about the autopsy.

It is undeniable that such a rotting corpse, such a charred corpse, many of them are unwilling to touch.

Moreover, autopsies are rarely performed on autopsies, after all, no one dares to bear the sin of injustice. Even if Xu Chu is like this, it is just that Xiao Qinglang gave her courage.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, if she wants to develop the autopsy into a forensic system like in her previous life, it is really a long way to go. She didn't have such a big ambition and ambition, after all, most of the corpses she looked at when she was in Cangyan County before were ordinary deaths of illness or fighting, and the body surface traces in those cases were enough to push the case.

But since following Xiao Qinglang's side, along the way, several cases she has come into contact with have been tragic and even very cover-up. She could even imagine how many clues they would have missed if it weren't for the dissection.

Xu Chu shook his head slightly, threw away the thoughts in his mind, and looked at the corpse intently again.

She frowned slightly, and looked at the corpse with a serious expression for a long time. Then, at the moment when everyone was caught off guard, he neatly peeled off the skin and flesh at the wrist of the corpse, but carefully avoided the blood vessels and other places when peeling off.

"There was no subcutaneous hemorrhage, and there was no subcutaneous blood on the wrist."

The implication is that the deceased was not bound during his lifetime.

"Based on the current autopsy, it can be concluded that the deceased did not struggle before his death and was not forced by violence."

Xu Chu sighed tiredly, took off her gloves and rubbed her eyes that were a little swollen, she always felt that something was wrong. It wasn't that she had seen something wrong, but that there was something she hadn't expected......

The good and decent people, facing the warm room not far away, did not go back, but were frozen to death. Moreover, the deceased was covered in the body without any injuries, neither subcutaneous bleeding, nor any resistance.

Moreover, she did not find any alcohol in her stomach, and she did not find any abnormal food or medicine for the time being. How did the murderer do it, you must know that since the death of Xie Niang in Lotus Villa, there have been subordinates who have been patrolling everywhere constantly to reassure everyone.

Xiao Qinglang saw that she couldn't hide her tiredness, so he simply put away the autopsy sheet in his hand and took off the mask and the shirt she was wearing for her.

"Get here today first, and talk about the rest tomorrow." He raised his hand to take a lamp from the ground, and in Xu Chu's stunned and dazed gaze, he pulled the person to his side and nodded her forehead. "Since you're tired, don't be strong, although things are a little tricky, but the investigation of the case is not in a hurry for this moment."

Xu Chu struggled slightly, but found that the person in front of him had never let go at all. She pursed her lips slightly, and sniffed lightly a little uncomfortably, and when she was just autopsied, she seemed to be stained with many strange smells......

She had never understood the mentality of women who were always delicate for men, so much so that she often thought that even if she fell in love with someone one day, she would never be so accidental. But they really have a heart-to-heart with each other, but she can't help but want to show the best side.

The mountain breeze sent cold, she lowered her eyes, her neat and dense eyelashes trembled slightly, and swept a small shadow under her eyes.

After a long time, she spoke softly, "I didn't burn the atractylodes soap horn in my autopsy today. ”
