C52 (2/2)
Su Li threw the money bag back to Song Lai, and borrowing the rising bonfire, he looked around.
The graveyard was at the foot of the mountain, with a road that led up to the graveyard in front and a long winding path that led up to the top of the mountain in the back.
The stench of blood was heavy, and there were quite a few people present. However, the crow was still flying in the air, unwilling to leave.
”Shopkeeper Hu, after the people from Hu Family arrived, have you walked around?” Su Li said.
”No, no. Everyone gather together, we don't even dare to approach the grave.”
Su Li nodded his head and looked at Wang Quanan: ”Magistrate Wang, I will need to trouble you to bring the officials around to look for clues, for example footprints, remnants of items, blood traces, etc.”
”Alright.”
Su Li and Song Lai passed through the crowd and approached the grave.
A few crows flapped their wings and flew out of the coffin, some pieces of meat still hanging from their beaks.
Song Lai only glanced at the situation inside the coffin, and immediately started swallowing. In the end, he could no longer hold himself back and turned his head, turning his head away, not daring to look anymore.
Su Li took a few steps closer. As the coffin had not been brought out, she could only squat down and observe the situation of the corpse from above.
With the eye of the waist as the boundary, the upper half of the corpse's skin was completely peeled off, its five senses were ruined, its flesh was mangled, and the stench of blood was heavy. Also, because of the crows pecking, the coffin was a mess …
The intact skin was placed on the side of his waist, and the lower half of the corpse was still okay, except that it was dehydrated and showed no signs of decay, as if it had been simply embalmed.
Only from the look of the human skin, the knife is very sharp, the criminal is skillful.
In particular, she needed to do a thorough examination of the body personally.
”Song Lai, go inform the people from Hu Family that there are some people here. Bring the corpses up, I want to do a detailed examination.”
Just as Song Lai wanted to reply, a woman who was paralyzed not too far away seemed to hear him. She stood up and rushed over.
At the same time that she desperately tried to pull Su Li back, she was pushed to the side.
Dong!
Su Li defensively pushed the tombstone away, and his back just happened to brush past the corner of the tombstone, causing a sharp pain.
The woman opened her arms in front of the grave and cried out, ”My poor Zhuo'er has already died without a complete corpse. You still want to examine his corpse and draw knives on his body? Isn't this cutting my heart?”
Song Lai regained his senses, and ran over to help Su Li up, ”Fourth Miss, are you alright?”
”I'm fine.” Su Li endured the pain and shook his head.
Song Lai stared at the mad woman and spoke in a low voice, ”The ones who are investigating the culprits are you guys, and the ones who are stopping the autopsy are also you guys, what do you guys want to do?”
”Go catch the culprit. Why did you touch my Zhuo'er's corpse?” ”He's already like this, I definitely won't allow you to touch him …”
The woman cried as she resolutely refused to let anyone near her.
Even Shopkeeper Hu went forward to persuade her, but she stopped him with a wave of her arm.
Su Li indicated for Song Lai to let her go, and then he took a few steps towards the woman.
”Who said that an autopsy was going to take a knife on him?”
The woman was stunned. ”You don't need to draw with a knife?”
”We're only investigating the case of corpse abuse. We don't need to confirm the cause of death, so we don't need to use a knife.”
”Really?”
Su Li nodded solemnly.
Only then did the woman calm down a bit, but she still said something fierce. ”If you go back on your word, I'll fight you to the death.”
”Woman, Fourth Miss has put in a lot of effort to come here to investigate. What nonsense did you do just now?” Shopkeeper Hu bellowed and pulled the woman away.
Beneath the high price, a servant of Hu Family boldly used a rope to tie the coffin.
However, just as he jumped down the grave, he screamed out in fear …
