Chapter 6: The Corpse That Spoke

  Jiang Zhundao said: "You're not fond of autopsies, are you? Let's go take a look at those three men who hanged themselves on the railway tracks, shall we?"

  "How do I get in?" I'm a practical girl.

  "Leave it to me... wait, my bun! I've bitten into it! Ahhh..."

  Standing still at the police station entrance, Jiang Zhun's face was still filled with a pained expression.

  I glanced at him sideways: "Come on, it's just eating one of your buns."

  "Let's go." Jiang Zhun didn't bother to argue with a little girl, and took the lead in walking towards the police station. I didn't believe for a moment that he could bluff his way in again, but still followed him.

  Unexpectedly, before entering the gate, a man in uniform came out first, wearing a solemn and dignified hat on his head. Seeing Jiang Zhun, he saluted him first.

  Jiang Zhun also returned a military salute and immediately asked: "Is the procedure done?"

  "It's all right, come with me."

  Following this man, I also enjoyed the military salute along the way. It wasn't until we reached the morgue door that I came back to my senses and couldn't help but take another look at Jiang Zhun.

  "What kind of person are you?" I bumped him and asked softly.

  "The Prince's Party."

  I: “……”

  "After you go in, the man said: 'You have one and a half hours, after one and a half hours, please come out on time, I will be waiting for you here.'"

  "Alright, alright, thank you." Jiang Zhun smiled and closed the door with a chuckle.

  I casually picked up a scalpel and aimed it at his throat, grinning: "Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist."

  Then Jiang Zhun very unmanly confessed: "Report to your lordship, I, Jiang Zhun, am a despised official second-generation."

  I have nothing more to say.

  I think that when God was creating Jiang Zhen, he must have been: add a bit of wisdom, oh no, too much, add a bit of good looks, ah, accidentally added too much, forget it, let's just add a bit of family background, oh no, the whole bottle was poured in...

  Jiang Zhun bypassed me and walked towards the place where the corpses were placed.

  Lifting the white cloth, a male corpse appeared before us.

  The male corpse had an ID card hanging from his chest, I picked it up and took a look, on which was written:

  Deceased: Zhao Guowei

  Age: 47

  Home address: H city...

  Cause of death: Not yet clear

  I put down my ID card, took a deep breath and fully immersed myself in the autopsy work. However, since these three corpses had already undergone forensic autopsy and evidence collection at the first time, and were covered in blood and flesh at the time of the accident, they now looked particularly gruesome, and I didn't know where to start cutting.

  Jiang Zhen's face was already somewhat unbearable, he turned his head and took several deep breaths before stiffly turning back. "Cough cough, Shu Lian, do you plan..." His words had not yet finished when I hastily put on the gloves and made another incision along the dissected wound.

  What a joke! Such an opportunity for dissection is hard to come by.

  "Ugh......" Jiang Zhen ran off and leaned against the wall, vomiting violently into a trash can.

  I smiled, thinking that I finally had a place to hold back this top-notch master of the computer world, and felt very proud in my heart, even the corpse under my hand became lovely.

  After seeing three corpses and coming out again, it was already around 6 o'clock in the evening.

  Actually, after coming out of the morgue, Jiang Zhun's classmate vomited for a long time in the toilet, feeling weak all over. It was still that police officer who took him to the office to drink some water and rest for more than half an hour.

  I stretched and asked with concern: "Guan Er Dai, are you okay?"

  Jiang Zhun weakly waved his hand, took a few deep breaths, and then said: "Let's go, let's go eat something, I've thrown up until my stomach is empty."

  "Can you still eat?" I looked at him in disbelief, his appearance just now was too weak.

  "This little thing won't affect my appetite."

  "Huh, you've never seen a dead person on your previous missions?" I couldn't help but ask. I thought back to when I used to catch souls and ghosts, there were even more miserable deaths than this.

  Jiang waved his hand: "I've seen dead people, but I haven't dissected them at such close range. Besides, the ones I've come into contact with are all free-form, abnormal creatures, no need to get my hands dirty."

  "As it happens, I actually found a very important clue during the autopsy." I continued after we sat down at the barbecue stall.

  Jiang Zhunxian ordered a bunch of food and when it was time for barbecue, he asked: "What clue?"

  "All the wounds on their bodies were inflicted after they died." I sniffled, stretching my neck to gaze at the food on the barbecue rack while blurting out a shocking message.

  "What?" Jiang Zhun's hand trembled.

  His reaction was also within my expectation, and I said calmly: "I guess the forensic doctor found out during the autopsy, but this matter is too strange. There are no signs of poisoning or any external injuries, and all the causes of death have been ruled out... We can assume that the forensic doctor will submit a practical report to his superiors, and attach his own thoughts about those supernatural and ghostly rumors - do you think such a report would be left behind by our government?"

  Jiang moved the food on the grill and nodded: "Mm-hmm, go on."

  "I re-examined the three men and didn't find any fatal causes, so external factors can basically be ruled out." I took out something and threw it on the table: "However, strangely, I found this on the Fengfu acupoint of the deceased, all three had it."

  "What is this?" Jiang Zhen stretched out his hand to pick it up, but found that it was only a thin black thread.

  "I said: 'Western medicine focuses more on the large blocks of human tissue, often neglecting the various acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine. Fengfu point is located on the midline of the cerebellum and has an important influence on the body's function, but it is often overlooked by people. Pinching this point to death is like pinching off the sluice gate of a flood, forcing all the flow of vital energy, blood, and bodily fluids to come to an abrupt halt.'"

  "Is that so?" Jiang Zhun pinched the thread and furrowed his brow, "Then this thread..."

  "This thread actually appeared quite eerily on the deceased's Fengfu acupoint, don't you think it's strange? Of course, I couldn't possibly hand over this clue to the police. I think we can get someone to help us now." I took out my phone and waved it around.

  Jiang Zhun raised an eyebrow: "Your meaning is......"
