Chapter 15: The Air of Death I

"Hey, boss, I have a funeral at home, please take a few days off from bereavement. Three days, just three days. ”

"Oh, okay. What's that, my signal is not very good, so I hung up first. What's that, Xiaomei, you're mourning. ”

After hanging up the phone, I went straight to the funeral home. It was my eldest uncle who died of illness, and frankly I didn't have anything to do with him, if it weren't for my aunt saying that my eldest uncle didn't have a son and a daughter and a boy who didn't have a boy to keep the spirit, I would never have gotten to go if I had to go to the vigil. In this way, even though I was reluctant to do so in my heart, I finally went to the funeral home, because although my father was still there after my mother died of illness when I was a child, my aunt brought me up with her own hands, so I treated my aunt like my own mother, and I could only listen to her to help keep the vigil......

In the funeral home, several of my elders chatted in the mourning hall: "Hey, how can this boss say that it's gone, we haven't even seen each other for the last time, so we just said that we will be sent to the funeral home, and we won't be there when the boss dies, I don't know if there is anything to say to us......"

"No, in the past, the eldest brother's phone call was answered by the eldest sister-in-law, and when I asked the eldest brother how the situation was, the sister-in-law said that it was very good, let us rest assured. We didn't go over to take a look, but today is good, let's watch it together. ”

"Oh, this person is fate, this boss sees that he has one year left to retire, and this whole time, he is only fifty-nine years old this year, and he didn't survive until retirement, no matter how strong he is."

"Did you say that the boss wanted to explain to us when he was dying, but the people on his daughter-in-law and mother-in-law were afraid that the boss would say something to us, so they didn't send them to the hospital, and when they were angry, they were sent directly to the funeral home."

"I'm going to work, I'm in a hurry, the day's work is gone, and I'm in vain today."

I watched a few elders talk with cold eyes, and from what they said, I could tell that they were actually complaining about their own little thoughts. And my aunt just sat silently in the crystal coffin with a stool at this time, quietly guarding the spirit, and there were always tears dripping from her eyes. I knew that it was useless to comfort me at this time, so I also took a stool and sat with my aunt by the coffin. When I sat at the coffin, I looked at my uncle's body, and there was nothing wrong with it, but I always felt that there was something wrong with my uncle's body......

Just as I wanted to take a closer look at my uncle's body, my aunt's mother, who was also my uncle's mother-in-law, came to the mourning hall to mourn. My uncle's mother-in-law is said to have been a pseudo-qigong master in her early years, and she has done something like a dancing god, in short, she is an old god who cheats and abducts. At this time, the old god, supported by her sister, came to the body of my great uncle, and cried out, "My aunt, why do you just say that you are leaving?" You make Mom feel so distressed. ”

The elder god's sister said to her, "All right, you have served him for two years in the hospital bed, and you are worthy of him." ”

If this scene was seen by others, they would definitely think that the mother-in-law was sad that she had lost her son-in-law, but I was next to the coffin and observed the expressions of the two up close, and there was not a single teardrop except for the dry howl. After the two finished speaking, they opened the coffin, saying that they had asked my eldest uncle for a consecrated robe, so that he could be blessed with early bliss. Seeing this, I hurried to help open the coffin, but my purpose was to get a closer look at the body, and I looked closely at my great uncle's body, and finally I was able to find something wrong......

After closing the coffin, I pulled my aunt aside and whispered, "How did my eldest uncle die?" ”

My aunt cried and said, "Your uncle was diagnosed with kidney failure two years ago. I have been suffering from chronic kidney failure for two years, and I am swollen and unable to work, so I have been lying at home for more than a year. Your aunt said that she was asleep that day, and she died of natural causes. ”

My aunt's answer was a natural death, which was obviously significantly different from a small detail I had observed, but it also convinced me that there was something strange about my uncle's death.

The refrigeration temperature in the crystal coffin of the funeral home will automatically shut down when the coffin reaches minus 20 degrees, and when the temperature in the coffin rises to minus 10 degrees, it will automatically turn on the machine to cool and keep circulating. Even if the makeup artist treats the face of the body well, such a 10-degree circulation temperature difference will restore the skin condition of the body before death a little bit over time. I have just observed the body of my uncle, and the flesh on the lower part of the Adam's apple on the neck is concave, which is clearly a phenomenon that can only occur in sudden death and suffocation, because the last consciousness of the deceased before death is to inhale air.

After sorting out my thoughts in my heart, I quietly said to my aunt, "My eldest uncle did not die of natural causes. "My aunt glared at me after hearing what I said, and I knew she was trying to blame me for talking nonsense. I hurriedly said to her: "The cause of death is definitely not a natural death, you believe me." ”

After I finished speaking, my aunt was silent for a long time and said to me: "What do you want to say, you can still ...... if you don't die naturally?"

I don't dare to say until the exact cause of death is determined. I hurriedly interrupted my aunt and said, "I don't know the exact cause of death, so I have to do an autopsy." However, on the surface, it is definitely not a natural death. ”

My aunt lowered her head and thought about it and said, "Then do you have to call the police for an autopsy, and you will take the body away?" ”

Yes, now I can only see that it is not a natural death, what if it is just a sudden death? Isn't it a fool's errand to call the police? I shook my head and said to my aunt, "Don't call the police, you can persuade my second uncle and my father to go back, I will stay here by myself at night, and I will call a forensic doctor to come and see when I arrive." ”

After talking to my aunt, I went out of the mourning hall to find a place where no one was, called Xiao Su, and asked her to bring a colleague from the forensic department to help me do a simple on-site autopsy later tonight......

At more than eleven o'clock in the evening, basically the relatives and elders of the family have left, and the remaining juniors are also staying up all night playing mahjong in the lounge outside the mourning hall. I saw that there was basically no problem, so I immediately called Xiao Su and asked her to bring someone over.

As soon as Xiao Su entered the mourning hall, he said, "I'll go, what are you tossing around in the middle of the night?" And came here for an autopsy. ”

"Alright, stop the ink. Let's go. ”

After I finished speaking, the forensic colleague who had been temporarily brought by Xiao Su put on gloves and motioned for me to open the coffin lid, and after opening the coffin lid, the forensic doctor first checked the appearance of the body, then took out a needle and pricked it in the throat and abdomen behind the body and looked at it. He said to me, "Go out and talk." ”

When the forensic doctor and I came to the funeral home, the forensic doctor said to me, "It's not poisoning. It is a myocardial infarction. But Xiaomei ......."

I didn't say anything about the doctor, and then asked, "But what?" Hurry up and say it, brother. ”

The medical examiner thought about it and said to me, "It's a myocardial infarction, but it's not an ordinary myocardial infarction, it's a sudden throbbing, and I don't know what the cause is." But autopsy theory is that this death was caused by external factors. ”

After listening to it, I thanked the forensic colleague and asked Xiao Su to send him home, I returned to the mourning hall and carefully recalled the forensic doctor's words, caused by external factors! What caused my uncle's death, man-made? Scare? Whatever the cause, at least now it has been determined that the cause of the death of the great uncle was by no means a natural death......
