Chapter 8: The Funeral Home
Dr. Luo described to us in detail the whole process of Yao Xirui's admission to the hospital until her death.
According to his account, all the operations were in line with the process standards of medical emergency and rescue, and Yao Xirui's vital signs at that time were completely gone, and her pupils were dilated and fixed, which could indeed be judged as death.
But Yao Xirui did not die, even if she was in a state of suspended animation at the time, how did she escape the detection of vital signs and rescue for half an hour?
"Are you sure all of Yao Xirui's vital signs disappeared at that time?" I asked again.
Although Dr. Luo didn't know the meaning of my words, he still nodded firmly: "Yao Xirui's heartbeat, pulse, and breathing were all gone, and the ECG monitoring equipment did not show any signs of life. We used cardiopulmonary resuscitation, pacemaker, adrenaline, etc. during the rescue process, but it had no effect, and Yao Xirui had multiple organ failures, cardiocerebral edema, and indeed died. ”
"Already dead?" I looked at him.
"Yes." Dr. Luo nodded.
"But Yao Xirui is alive again." I said suddenly.
After hearing this, Dr. Luo was stunned and looked up at me, his eyes full of panic and surprise: "What?!" Live again?! ”
I nodded, "Yes." ”
Dr. Luo's expression was very unnatural, he laughed a few times, and looked at us with some surprise: "Comrade policeman, you can't make such a joke, Yao Xirui is dead, how can she live?" ”
"She is indeed alive again, resurrected in the crematorium, and we are here this time to investigate whether there is a misdiagnosis in the hospital." I said seriously.
The smile on Dr. Luo's face was a little stiff, and the atmosphere was a little awkward: "Disease diagnosis can be misdiagnosed, but how can death diagnosis be misdiagnosed?" And at that time, many of our doctors were rescuing, and everyone can testify that Yao Xirui did not have any vital signs at that time...... This is really a medical miracle, and this case can be written into the history of medicine for all doctors at home and abroad to study. ”
"Is it medically possible to fake animation?" I asked him.
Dr. Luo smiled and explained: "That's all in martial arts novels, how can there be in reality, the so-called suspended animation, is a state of shock, the effective circulating blood volume is sharply reduced, the vital organs of life are seriously impaired, the body function is decompensated, and the tissues are ischemia and hypoxia." At this time, the vital signs are very weak and difficult to judge clinically.
But now that medicine is so developed, with all kinds of vital signs detection instruments and formal rescue procedures, there is no such thing as suspended animation. ”
After speaking, he looked at his watch and said slightly apologetically: "Two police officers are embarrassed, I am going to attend a consultation with a patient." ”
We stood up and left Dr. Law's office.
On the way back to the Public Security Bureau, I asked Li Meng, "Is this really a medical miracle?" ”
Li Meng was silent for a while, and did not answer my question.
Judging from Dr. Luo's description, the hospital did a comprehensive rescue of Yao Xirui, which was in line with the regulations.
After a moment of silence, Li Meng slowly spoke: "Doctor Luo said that when Yao Xirui was declared dead, the main internal organs of the whole body were failing, but after Yao Xirui was resurrected, she went to the hospital for a comprehensive physical examination, but she showed that she was very healthy. This is organ failure! How is it possible to recover instantly? ”
"You mean, Dr. Law is lying?" I asked her suddenly.
Li Meng fell into deep thought and did not answer again.
It's hard for anyone to say about this question.
"In other words, Yao Xirui is not as serious as Dr. Luo said, but Dr. Luo and Yao Xirui don't know each other, and they have no grievances, so why lie?"
I couldn't figure out why a doctor, as a doctor, would give up on a patient.
And not only Dr. Luo, but also many doctors participated in the rescue of Yao Xirui at that time, and various vital signs detectors also showed that Yao Xirui had no vital signs.
What went wrong? Is it really Yao Xirui who faked her death and deceived all the doctors and instruments? Or is it intentional on the part of the hospital?
It's just that everything at the moment is our speculation, and there is no evidence.
No one is pursuing this issue, even Yao Xirui's family is only pursuing the issue of compensation from hospitals and funeral homes.
The case of Yao Xirui's corpse fraud is about to be closed here, and it will be futile to investigate further.
When we returned to the Ningzhou City Public Security Bureau, we happened to meet the armed police from the local detention center who came here to carry out Liao Nian's extermination.
Liao Nian saw us and suddenly stopped, showing a look of uncooperation.
The two armed policemen beside him immediately became vigilant and prepared to forcibly escort Liao Nian to the car.
Liao Nian couldn't break free, and suddenly shouted to us: "I have something to say!" ”
I really don't want to have too much communication with a necrophile who has confessed his guilt, but for the sake of the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, I still have to go up and talk to him for a few words.
"If there is anything else, it's better to finish it with me all at once, and if you want to say it again, you can only say it to the judge of the court and the prison guard." I walked up to him and asked him calmly.
Liao Nian first licked his lips, adjusted his breathing, and said lightly: "You must investigate Tang Xiujie, the director of the funeral home, he is doing some unknown things." ”
His words piqued my interest, but I prefer to believe that it was the madness of his confession.
"What's up to him? What do you know? I looked at him earnestly.
"According to the funeral home's procedure, before the deceased is cremated, I need to carry out the appearance of the deceased, which is a necessary procedure. But I found out several times that at night, Tang Xiujie himself burned his body in the cremation workshop. Liao Nian said coldly.
"Oh?" I frowned.
"I suspect he's doing something illegal, helping to burn some corpses, which may have been contagious, or someone who had been killed. Regardless of where the corpse came from, he must be helping to destroy the corpse! Liao Nian had a clear attitude and said with great certainty.
"Do you have any proof?" I asked him again.
Now is a society governed by the rule of law, everything must be based on evidence, and defamation is also to be criminalized.
Liao Nian took a deep breath and said with some embarrassment: "No, but I have seen it several times with my own eyes." He was in the cremation workshop at the time, the lights were not turned on, and only the crematorium was lit in the room. Tang Xiujie was talking on the phone while looking at the crematorium, and his voice was very small, and I vaguely heard that he seemed to be talking about the price, and said that this was the last time, and he wouldn't do anything next time. ”
Liao Nian didn't seem to be lying, with his current state, there was no need to lie, if he really slandered Tang Xiujie, he would only add one more crime to him.
Tang Xiujie burned the corpse of unknown origin in violation of regulations, and also talked about the price, which should be to collect money to help the criminals dispose of the corpse.
And the corpse, most likely, died from homicide.
He's helping the killer destroy his body......
