Chapter 293: Madder
Qin Yuan saw that I was leaving, and said, "That's good, you go first, if there is anything you need my help with, come back to me." My grandfather's eyes have not seemed to be getting better in the last few months, and if it is serious, he will have surgery, so I will always be here, if you need my help, I can help, absolutely obligation. ”
I knew that Qin Yuan was not joking, but serious, so I responded to him solemnly. After turning around and leaving, I thought about asking Xu Ling for help.
But as soon as I got downstairs, a child of seven or eight years old came over and handed me a piece of paper.
"Uncle, someone asked me to give you this paper, and he said that you will know if you read it." With that, he presented me with a piece of paper with both hands.
I opened the paper and saw a few words written on it: "He Yang, go quickly." ”
Who wants to remind me to hurry up?
I looked around, but there was no one. So I asked the child, "Little friend, who asked you to give me this letter?" ”
"It's an uncle, he's tall and thin, with big ...... eyes," I couldn't have guessed who he was.
So I finally gave up guessing, and secretly put the paper away, thinking that this was too strange and should be treated with caution.
I took this piece of paper with me and got home in the car. I saw that the two policemen had left, but Xu Ling was still here, helping me clean the house.
After pushing the door and walking in, as soon as she saw me, she immediately turned her head and asked me with a smile, "Are you back?" "Although this made me feel very warm, I still thought to myself: How nice would it be if this was Wang Qiuyue?
Xu Ling didn't know what I was thinking at this moment, so he came over and asked me, "When I woke up early in the morning, I was gone, where are you going?" ”
I came back to my senses and hurriedly explained to her: "It's not much, I just went to see Qin Yuan and them." Uncle Qin's eyes were injured because he helped me investigate this case. ”
"So you're going to see him, aren't you?" Xu Ling asked in surprise.
I nodded, walked over to the couch, and came a Ge You to lie down.
In fact, I still feel a little pain in my head, it must be because of the crash last night.
Xu Ling walked up to me, sat down consciously, and then said to me, "Don't be too tired. ”
"Do you think I want to? It's really hard to get around these days, and there's always something going wrong. ”
Hearing me say this, Xu Ling lowered his gaze and thought secretly.
Immediately afterward, she suggested for me, "Actually, there may be another way to help you investigate." ”
As soon as I heard that there was a way, my whole body suddenly seemed to come alive. I sat up, turned my head, looked at her expectantly, and asked, "Is there any way, you can tell me about it." ”
She let out a "hmm", even a prolonged sound.
I could see that she was thinking about it for a while, and then I heard her say: "As far as the current case is concerned, in fact, we can start from your cousin's side?" When you talked to the police last night, didn't you say that there were multiple murders involved, and you suspected that your cousin was one of them......"
When she said this, it dawned on me.
I hurriedly pulled her up and said, "Go, follow me to the hospital." ”
"What are you doing there?"
"I've been busy lately, my cousin's body hasn't been buried yet, and I'm still in the hospital."
Then we went to the morgue together.
Actually, I still don't believe that my cousin really died of sudden death.
After finding my cousin's body, sure enough, the corpse's nails were already blackened. I examined it carefully and found that my cousin had been coated with madder.
I immediately went to the nurse who was looking at the corpse and said that no one would be so bored to paint this kind of thing on my cousin.
Perhaps I need to talk about the peculiarity of this thing: madder is a traditional Chinese medicine unique to Yunnan, which was used to make up the dead in ancient times, and it could cover the wounds on the body of the deceased. There are also some good pharmacological effects.
But I'm not a non-doctor, I'm just a detective, so that's all I know.
After discovering Madder, I knew that my cousin's body must have been tampered with, and I was even more convinced that my cousin had been killed. After wiping off the madder grass that had been applied to it, I found that my cousin had died of poisoning.
However, as a professional pathological forensic doctor, how could Chen Yuxiu not even find out this? I was suddenly a little suspicious of him.
Coupled with his multiple inexplicable disappearances, it makes me even more suspicious.
So I stood next to my cousin and got into the thoughts.
At this moment, Xu Ling gently pushed me beside me. I came back to my senses and turned my head abruptly.
"Are you frozen stupid? How do you stand here motionless? Xu Ling asked.
I shook my head slowly, then pointed to the various pathologies I found and said, "You have been a forensic doctor, and you should be more professional than me in autopsy." I'm sure you know very well that this is a symptom of poisoning. But after his death, he was manipulated. ”
Xu Ling leaned his head over to take a look and said in surprise: "It's really true, but in such a situation, why didn't the forensic doctor who performed the autopsy find out?" ”
"Because it was coated with madder grass unique to Yunnan, and the person who performed the autopsy at that time was Chen Yuxiu, I trusted him very much, so I didn't re-examine it."
Xu Ling also realized a problem at once: "Chen Yuxiu has a problem. You think, he is a professional forensic doctor, and his autopsy skills are above you and me, how can he not know such a situation? And in the police station, how many people can access the body? ”
"So let's go to the police station first." I say.
When we arrived at the police station, we asked my cousin about his condition in detail. The policeman on guard said to the two of us: "On the day He Erlong died, I heard that it was okay, but I was quite happy and had a meal. And then I remember that several of our colleagues at that time had taken turns to see him, because he was probably a felon, involved in a murder. After that, I didn't know, but I heard someone say that something had happened to him, and it happened that Forensic Doctor Chen was going to take them away, so we asked Forensic Doctor Chen to do an autopsy. ”
As we spoke, he had already led us to the detention cell.
"Your cousin was detained here at the time, so take a good look." With that, he opened the door and left.
I walked in and examined the scene carefully. Whether it's a corner, or a wall, or a door, or a corridor, I pay close attention to every place.
Xu Ling was also helping me find it, and at the same time guessed: "He Yang, do you think someone did something to your cousin's meal at that time?" ”
I don't want to guess about things that have no basis. So I shook my head and continued to look for clues from the scene.
