Chapter 146: Fist-like stance

After getting the secret order of the flying knife, Ye Feng left the small courtyard of the South Hall and went straight to the Su Yang of the West Hall.

Su Yang had just changed into clean clothes, and was sitting on a chair drinking tea and resting, looking very tired.

Ye Feng walked into the house, came straight to Su Yang, saluted first and then soldiers, and said with a smile: "Hall Master Su, this fire is very strange, and it should be investigated carefully. ”

Su Yang was physically and mentally exhausted, and now he didn't want to think about these things at all, he looked at Ye Feng and said casually: "Didn't the virtuous nephew just say that it was the fire caused by the fire candle, how can he say that it is strange and wants to investigate?" ”

Ye Feng slowly put away the smile on his face and said solemnly: "After returning to Nantang, I thought about it carefully and found some suspicious points. ”

"Suspicious?" Su Yang got up slightly and asked very vigilantly, "What suspicion?!" ”

Ye Feng said: "I can't say it for the time being, I can only know after the autopsy." ”

"What?!"

Su Yang looked shocked, and after a while, he glared and said, "You want to disembowel the deceased?!" ”

Ye Feng expected Su Yang's expression to be after hearing the autopsy, and immediately said: "Only by autopsy of the deceased can the real cause of death be determined." It is likely that they were killed before the fire broke out. ”

Su Yang only felt that Ye Feng was talking nonsense, a life case should be performed by the corpse, even if some cases are bizarre, the corpse only needs to be observed. Although there have been occasional cases of cutting open the flesh and skin of the deceased with a knife to observe the inside of the wound, disembowelment has never been heard of.

"No! The dead are big, how can they be disemboweled like cattle and sheep?! Su Yang angrily reprimanded Ye Feng and sternly refused, absolutely not allowing Ye Feng to do this.

It was already difficult for the student to be burned to death in the Purple Cloud Sword Sect to explain to his family, and now he had to be disemboweled, which was even more unacceptable.

But Ye Feng didn't eat this set at all, but instead raised his head and raised his voice: "Hall Master Su, I came this time to inform, not to solicit opinions. ”

Sure enough, with the support of Song's father's Nine Star Division, it is hard.

"Ye Feng!"

Hearing his words, Su Yang got up suddenly, pointed at Ye Feng and shouted: "You are the master of the South Hall, I am the master of the West Hall, this time it is the fire of the West Hall, you don't need the help of the South Hall." Although you are all hall masters, the Purple Cloud Sword Sect has already entrusted all affairs to me......"

Ye Feng didn't have the heart to listen to Su Yang say these nonsense, raised his hand, and interrupted: "No wonder the Purple Cloud Sword Sect has come to talk to Hall Master Su for several days, and every time he returns in anger. ”

"You...... What do you mean?! Su Yang's face was a little unbearable, and he shouted.

Ye Feng showed the jade pendant of Song Gong: "The emperor has a holy decree to issue the Nine Star Division, ordering me to investigate the affairs of the demon clan with full authority, the Song Gong has a jade pendant here, seeing this thing is like seeing Song Gong, the Nine Star Division is investigating the case, and the three provinces and six departments must obey the order!" I suspect that the fire in the West Hall has something to do with the demon clan, and I have decided to investigate this matter thoroughly! ”

The Nine Stars Division has the imperial power to inspect and arrest, and is directly responsible to the emperor, and can arrest anyone and conduct a closed trial.

Jiuxing Division came forward, Su Yang had no reason to refuse, and he did not have the ability to refuse.

Seeing that Su Yang's attitude immediately eased, Ye Feng showed an arrogant smile: "I now announce that the Nine Star Division has officially taken over this case, from now on, we will have our own opinions, you call me Lord Qincha, and I will call you Hall Master Su." ”

With a few loud laughs of the villain, Ye Feng turned around and left the West Hall, leaving only Su Yang with a dark face in the room.

With Song Gong's flying knife secret order, Ye Feng held Song Gong's jade pendant, which was regarded as officially taking over the investigation of the case.

Although the Nine Star Division did not intervene in the Purple Cloud Sword Sect on a large scale, there were already signs of a transfer of power.

The Purple Cloud Sword Sect has risen again and again.

This fire was very strange, after the on-site investigation, Ye Feng found many suspicious points, he decided to put the gunpowder matter on hold for the time being, and instead started from the autopsy.

The bodies of the victims of this fire were all parked in a vacant room, and there were a total of 10 corpses, all of which were charred by the fire and were completely unrecognizable.

Before Ye Feng crossed over, as a criminal psychology consultant, he helped the police handle cases many times, and he also participated in the autopsy process many times. Although he is not a professional forensic doctor, let alone a professional dissection, it is relatively simple to distinguish whether he was burned to death by fire or incinerated after death.

In "The Collection of Grievances", Song Ci once encountered a fire case, in order to determine whether it was burned to death by fire or burned after death, Song Ci sent someone to find two pigs, killed one of them, and locked it in a shed with the live pig. The hut was then set on fire until the live pigs were burned to death.

The two pigs look almost identical in appearance, and the burnt surface of the body is highly identical. However, Song Ci found that there was no smoke and dust in the mouths of dead pigs, while there was a large amount of smoke and dust in the mouth, nose and respiratory tract of live pigs.

Therefore, Ye Feng only needed to check whether there was smoke and dust in the respiratory tracts of the ten deceased people to determine whether they died from the fire.

Ye Feng lifted the white cloth and carefully examined the tragic condition of each corpse.

Under the action of the high-temperature flame, the water in the human tissues is rapidly lost, the skin and muscle tissue become hard, coagulative necrosis occurs, the muscles are highly carbonized, the flexor muscles are severely contracted, and each corpse presents a fist-like posture.

The fist-like posture is typical of the deceased in forensic science, but the fist-like posture of these corpses is not severe and seems somewhat bizarre.

"You're going to do an autopsy?"

Lin Xiyao followed Ye Feng's side, and seeing that his expression was getting more and more serious, she couldn't help but ask.

"The corpse is the most telling story." Ye Feng pretended to be deep and said sternly.

"Did you find anything?" Lin Xiyao continued to ask.

Regarding this question, Ye Feng was silent.

After conducting unprofessional dissections on the respiratory tracts of the corpses, everything was as Ye Feng expected, there was no large amount of smoke and dust in the respiratory tracts of these ten corpses, and it could basically be judged that they would be cremated after death.

This was originally a major discovery, but it made Ye Feng feel completely confused.

If these people weren't burned, then how did they die?

Where did the gunpowder come from in the storeroom on the first floor of the Library?

Was this fire accidental or man-made?

If it was man-made, was it to create the illusion that ten people died in the fire?

There are many ways to dispose of corpses, so why abandon a library building?

What identity did Su Yang play in this fire?

Countless questions poured into Ye Feng's mind at the same time, making him feel very tired.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Ye Feng had been looking at the corpse and had never said a word, Lin Xiyao stepped forward and asked.

"I'm wondering how the hell they died." Ye Feng said slowly.

Conducting anatomical observation of the respiratory tract was beyond Ye Feng's ability, and his own knowledge of anatomy and forensic theory did not allow him to conduct further autopsy on the corpse to determine its true cause of death.

The corpse has been scorched by the fire, and there are different degrees of carbonization reactions, even if there are wounds on the surface of the body, it is difficult to distinguish.

"If only there was a medical examiner." Ye Feng muttered.

"What doctor?" Lin Xiyao didn't hear Ye Feng's words clearly, and asked.

Ye Feng came back to his senses and explained, "It's a good job." ”

"The Nine Star Division has a puppet, you can send a puppet to come, or transport the corpse to the Phantom Star Pavilion." Lin Xiyao proposed.

This is really the only way at present, professional things should be left to professional people to do, although Ye Feng does not have much hope for this world, but it can be regarded as a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

"Inform Lord Ji Zhaoyang and ask him to send someone over to bring the body back and conduct an autopsy immediately. The corpse was placed here, and Su Yang was buried if he couldn't get it. Ye Feng said in a deep voice.

"And what are you going to do now?" Lin Xiyao continued to ask.

Although the cause of death of these people is not clear, from the current point of view, some people want to destroy their bodies, which means that they are most likely to be killed. If you go to the places where these people live, you should find something. ”
