Chapter 401: Fight the Skeleton
"No, what about the masked men just now?" looked at Chu Chengxiao as if nothing had happened.
"Knocked away." After speaking, Chu Chengxiao continued to dig up the bones.
"You knocked so many people away by yourself?" Xia Ye ran over and crouched down and asked.
Chu Chengxiao was stunned for a moment, a hint of strangeness flashed in his eyes, and then nodded: "Yes, I beat them away alone." ”
Oh my! Xia Ye looked at Chu Chengxiao with admiration: "You are simply amazing!" ”
"That's, and don't look at who I am." Chu Chengxiao finished speaking, then took a small shovel next to him and said, "Don't you want these bones, it's not early, let's dig them up quickly." ”
"Okay." Natsuba took the shovel and said.
After digging for a while, Chu Chengxiao looked at Xia Ye and asked, "Didn't I let you go?" Why did you just run back again? ”
"I'm worried about you." Xia Ye dug out a leg bone, put it aside, and said truthfully: "There were so many people surrounding you just now, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to beat you, so I ran back to help you, but when I arrived, I found that those masked people had been beaten away by you." ”
"Leaves worried about me?" Chu Chengxiao asked with a smile on his face.
"Needless to say, I asked you to come along, what if something happens to you." Xia Ye glanced at Chu Chengxiao, and then put the last bone in the baggage.
"Alright, let's go." Xia Ye separated the bones of the three members of the Yang family and put them in the baggage, one for each of Chu Chengxiao.
Chu Chengxiao took the burden in his hand, and then nodded: "Let's go." ”
The two of them walked towards the inn with a pile of loose bones, and as soon as they arrived at the inn, they found Wei Rong waiting anxiously at the door, and hurriedly greeted Xia Ye after seeing him.
"Li Lawyer, Master Chu, are you okay?"
Xia Ye shook his head, and then said, "Let's go back first." ”
Wei Rong nodded, and then entered the inn, Chu Chengxiao looked around the street uneasily, and then entered the inn.
Back in the room, Xia Ye hurriedly closed the door tightly, and then poured the bones in the baggage and the bones in Chu Chengxiao's baggage on the ground.
"Master Li, did you bring these bones back?" Wei Rong squatted down and looked at those scattered bones.
"These bones may give us proof, and we have to bring them back." Xia Ye didn't know when he dared to dig up the bones of the dead.
Looking at these scattered bones with some dirt now, Xia Ye suddenly shivered.
Wei Rong suddenly knelt on the ground, and then cried: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, father-in-law." ”
"The deceased is gone, Mrs. Wei should mourn." Xia Ye sighed, and then prepared to start splicing the bones.
"Master Li, don't you think these skulls are strange?" Chu Chengxiao squatted down and looked at those bones and asked.
Xia Ye looked at the skulls in the pile of scattered bones, then shook his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"The skulls and cervical vertebrae of these three are firmly together." After speaking, Chu Chengxiao picked up one of the skulls, and sure enough, the cervical vertebrae and the skull below were connected together.
"It stands to reason that after the human body decomposes, there is no connection between the bones and the bones, so the skeleton will be scattered, you see." Chu Chengxiao pointed to the pile of loose bones: "These bones are all one by one, but this skull and cervical vertebrae are connected together, isn't it strange?" ”
When Chu Chengxiao said this, Xia Ye noticed that something was wrong, then squatted down and looked at those bones, and then asked a little puzzled: "Then why is this?" ”
Chu Chengxiao took one of the skulls and looked at it repeatedly, and suddenly broke it with both hands, and the skull in his hand and the cervical vertebrae below were separated, but in the middle of the skull and cervical vertebrae, a steel nail inserted obliquely into the bone appeared in the bone crack.
"What is this?" Xia Ye looked at the steel nail in surprise, because the steel nail was rotting with the corpse, so there was a layer of white rust on it.
Wei Rong saw the steel nail and stopped crying, and also asked, "How can there be this thing in the bones?" ”
"It seems that the old lady of the Yang family, as well as the young master's cause of death, have another reason." Chu Chengxiao looked at the steel nail that was inserted diagonally into the skull and cervical vertebrae.
Xia Ye also felt that this was not simple, so he looked at the pile of bones and said, "Let's put these bones together first." ”
"How do you spell?" Wei Rong asked.
"Do you have any glue here?" Xia Ye suddenly asked with a nerve-wracked question.
"Glue?" Wei Rong shook his head and asked, "What is that?" ”
"It's a very sticky thing that can glue two things together." Natsuba explained.
Wei Rong thought for a moment and said, "There is no glue that Master Li said, but I know that there is a thing that is very sticky. ”
"What?"
"The slime that comes out of the resin, it's very sticky, and we usually use it to seal the window paper here, it's very sticky."
After hearing this, Xia Ye asked, "Is there one in this inn?" ”
"There should be, every family will have some of this kind of thing." After Wei Rong finished speaking, he said directly: "I'll ask the shopkeeper the main points." ”
"Hey..."Xia Ye stopped Wei Rong, who was about to go out, and said, "That... Multiple points. ”
Wei Rong was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "I know Master Li." ”
After all, there are so many bones, Xia Ye is afraid that a little resin glue will not be enough.
While Wei Rong went to get the resin glue, Xia Ye separated the bones of the three people of the Yang family, and then gave one of them to Chu Chengxiao, keeping one for himself and the rest for Wei Rong.
There are three of them, one by one, so that the speed is faster.
Waiting for Wei Rong to take the resin glue, Xia Ye, who had already put together the bones, began to put the bones together piece by piece.
The three of them worked hard for a long time, gluing each bone well, waiting for the resin glue to dry, and then lifting the skeleton up from the ground.
Since touching those bones, Xia Ye has always felt uncomfortable, and has gone downstairs to wash his hands again and again.
Finally, the resin glue dried up, and Xia Ye asked Chu Chengxiao to lift up the skeletons of the three members of the Yang family, and then put them against the wall.
The entire skeleton turned gray and white, Xia Ye looked at the three skeletons carefully, turned around and asked Wei Rong with red eyes: "Mrs. Wei, you said they all died of arsenic?" ”
Wei Rong nodded, then lowered his head again and sobbed softly.
"No, since the three people of the Yang family died of arsenic, why haven't the bones here in the pelvis turned black?" If these people were killed by arsenic, their bones would have been corroded by arsenic, but Xia Ye looked at the three skeletons, all of them were gray and white, and none of the bones were black.
"Why are the bones black?" Chu Chengxiao asked with a blank face.
"If all three people in the Yang family died of arsenic, then according to the corrosiveness of arsenic, the bones in their abdomen should be black."
"Then if Ye Zi said so, the people of the Yang family may not have been poisoned to death at all, but were directly twisted off their necks." Because this is the only way to explain why there is a steel nail that is inserted diagonally into their skull and cervical vertebrae.
