Chapter 9 Official Post-Mortem
It was only a few meters from the front yard to the backyard, and a group of several people came to the door of the backyard in the blink of an eye. Zhang Sanxing pushed the door open with a push.
"Crunch, squeak!"
The wooden door rattled as soon as it was pushed open. And this backyard is different from the front yard, at this moment in autumn, although the compound faces west, but the light is still insufficient. At the moment when the door was opened, a cold wind rushed in the face, and what fell into the eyes of everyone was the rows of coffins.
Everyone was blown by this cool breeze, and they felt uncomfortable for a while. Then he saw so many coffins placed in front of his eyes, and through the ice coffin, he could clearly see those stiff and cold corpses. Some of the corpses were even more wide-eyed, and they looked very horrified.
Seeing this, Gong Xian Ling frowned, his heart was very uneasy, and he asked in a trembling tone: "Sanxing, why do you have so many corpses here?" Why don't you bury them all? ”
"Gong County order, some of these corpses are not over the first seven years and cannot be buried. Some of the bodies were temporarily placed here in the neighboring village, waiting for them to choose a cemetery before they were transported for burial.
As you know, I don't have much ability on my own, so I can only earn some mortuary expenses to get by. Zhang Sanxing had long known that he would have this question, so he had prepared a set of rhetoric.
"I see, aren't you afraid that a young man lives here? You know, not to mention you, a young man, even those of us who are older adults feel uncomfortable. Gong Xian Ling shook his body and said with a frown.
"Hehe, what's there to be afraid of. It's just an ordinary dead man. ”
Zhang Sanxing smiled lightly and said, "Besides, in this radius of dozens of miles, I can put the corpse here." Am I just looking out for my own mind and leaving these corpses out of the door?
After all, they were human beings when they were alive, and I really can't bear to watch their corpses decompose before the first seven years have passed. This is also a very sad thing for them in their lifetime. ”
Hearing him say this, Gong Xianling paused, and then sighed slightly: "Hey, I really don't know what to say." Maybe you are ignorant and fearless, or maybe you are kind and tolerant of everything! But in any case, if you can have this idea, it also shows that you have a good heart! ”
After speaking, he said to the several coroners around him: "Xiao Wang, Xiao Li, Xiao Yang, you take a closer look, you must give me an accurate result." Determine whether they died of natural drowning or murder, after all, these are two homicides. ”
"Yes, Gong County Order!" The coroner nodded, and then went in with a toolbox on his back.
Seeing this, Zhang Sanxing hurriedly took the lead to guide them and led them to the two corpses.
When the three coroners came to the body, they pushed open the coffin board, put up the tools and examined it carefully.
Xiao Wang carried a special post-mortem flashlight and looked at the eyes and mouths of the two corpses, and then took out a paper and pen to record them in detail.
The other two people, on the other hand, each copied a small and delicate scalpel, examined the nails and hair roots of the corpse, and then took some nails and hair and put them in a special bag, and kept them back to the hospital for testing.
"Xiao Wang, this corpse is slightly swollen, the chest is slightly convex, and the soles of the feet are slightly concave....Basically, it can be concluded from the surface that they died of drowning. As for the more detailed details, I think it would be more appropriate to have an autopsy. Xiao Li looked at it for a while and said with a smile.
"Hehe, Brother Li, I don't think it's necessary, right? The eyes of the two corpses still glowed with the characteristic symptoms of drowning, and their mouths were full of dirt, and there was no other abnormality in their throats, and there was not the slightest suspicion in their bodies. If we dissect them now, some of them don't meet the procedural regulations, after all, their families haven't given permission.
I think we might as well take these nails and hair roots for a lab test first, and then make the next definitive conclusion! Xiao Wang replied with a smile.
"Yes, Dr. Wang is absolutely right. If the two doctors dissected them like this, then in case their family members had some power. Blame you for dissecting the corpse without their consent, so that you are not thankless and provoked a sheep's trouble? I think it's better not to move for the time being, so as not to get out of the way. ”
Zhang Sanxing naturally didn't want to see them dissect the two corpses, he had already judged clearly whether these two people died of drowning, and at this moment, the internal organs of the two corpses must have been eaten by corpse insects.
If it were to be dissected, wouldn't it be a waste of trouble? Maybe something bad will happen because of this, and he hurriedly dissuaded him at the moment.
Mayor Li and Gong County Commander, who were at the door, also heard their conversation, and that Gong County Commander also felt very reasonable when he heard this. It is more appropriate to find out their identity first, so as not to cause trouble.
"Ahem, cough, cough..."
At that moment, he pretended to cough twice, and said, "Since you have basically determined from the surface of the corpse that these two people died of drowning, then you should not dissect them for the time being, and take those things for testing first." When the test results came in, the families of the two bodies were found, and then decided whether to proceed with the next autopsy. ”
"The county magistrate, you are very right, it is said that people like this who have just drowned, they must have a lot of resentment when they drown, so it is really not appropriate to dissect at this moment. As the saying goes, it is better to believe in the things of ghosts and gods than to believe in them.
Wouldn't it be a problem if something bad happened? Mayor Li also hurriedly blew the wind in his ears, scaring him with some words like ghosts and gods, and cooperated with Zhang Sanxing's thoughts.
When the three coroners heard Gong County's order, they hurriedly packed up their tools and covered the coffin board. He muttered a word to the corpse and said something like not to be surprised, and then went out of the courtyard and came to the door.
"Mayor Li, you should keep the corpse alive. It is important that the deceased is well preserved until I investigate the identity of the deceased, so that it can be handed over to the family of the deceased for burial at the next day. ”
County Magistrate Gong was eager to leave this place earlier, so he hurriedly gave an order, and then strode away.
Looking at his expression, it is estimated that he will either go to the Taoist temple or go to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and ask the gods for protection, so as not to be entangled by some inexplicable things.
Seeing this, the three coroners also followed closely and hurriedly took these things to the county seat for testing.
Seeing that these people were gone, Mayor Li said to Zhang Sanxing: "Sanxing, have you disposed of all the unclean things in the corpse?" ”
"Mayor Mare, I've already disposed of the corpse, but this dirty thing is a bit bad this time. According to my preliminary judgment, they should have been eroded by the yellow corpse qi. Zhang Sanxing frowned, and said with some concern.
"Yellow corpse? How do you say that? Mayor Li didn't understand the division of corpses, and asked with some confusion.
