Chapter 211 Killed or Burned?
Hearing this, Surao's eyes were strange but she didn't say much. She looked at Jin Xu again, "What about you?"
"Let's get together."
If you promised to accompany the autopsy, you must do it.
Even Zhu Yan refused to avoid it. If he avoided it, wouldn't it mean that he was the least courageous among the three people?
Mr. Jin did not want to accept such an insult.
"I admire your decision-making. After all, any encounter or situation is a novel experience on the road of life."
Surao inserted the hairpin and fixed the black hair on the back of her head, then took out the fragrant pills and distributed one to each of them.
Jin Xu swallowed it without hesitation and replied: "Of course, I like to hunt for novelties the most."
"very good."
I just don’t know how long Mr. Jin can maintain this idea.
Surao chuckled lightly and stepped into the hut with a straight face. The long-abandoned house was filled with dust and cobwebs, and five charred corpses were placed side by side on the table.
But not lying flat.
Instead, he made his hands into fists, his knees against his forehead, and his whole body curled up into a ball.
"Are their movements too uniform?"
Zhu Yan walked around the table and looked at these people. Sure enough, they were completely unrecognizable. He couldn't even see clearly where their noses and ears were.
What can be found on such a charred body?
Although Mr. Jin came in, he was not as curious as Zhu Yan. He stood a little further away with a folding fan in hand, raised his eyes and looked over here, and echoed: "That's true, it looks strange."
Surao explained: "When the human body is burned by flames, the muscles coagulate and contract when exposed to high heat. The muscles responsible for flexion are more developed than the muscles for extension, so the limbs will be flexed. This is the most typical evidence of being burned to death."
"Of course, this state will also occur when the body is burned after death."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu Yan suddenly screamed, pointed at one of the corpses and said, "Look, these wounds on his body look like they were opened with a sharp weapon."
Surao came closer.
Jin Xu on the side couldn't help but step forward, and got closer to see the beauty more clearly. He quickly glanced at the few beside him and said in a deep voice: "They all have it."
"Since burning corpses after death can also cause this state, does it mean that they were killed before the fire came?"
The two of them looked at Surao together, as if waiting for her judgment.
No one is more professional than her when it comes to autopsies.
Surao looked at the wounds carefully and finally shook her head, "This is not an incision, but a fake wound."
"What is a false wound?"
Zhu Yan asked curiously.
Surao always answers questions about these, "High temperature will evaporate the water in the skin, making it dry and brittle, solidify and shrink, and then split along the skin texture, forming the spindle-shaped wound you see."
"It is different from an incision. The wound is shallow and generally only damages the skin."
The wounds on these people fit this characteristic.
"So people are still burned to death?"
Zhu Yan was hit, his head drooped, and he sighed and asked.
"Isn't it bad to be burned to death? Doesn't this prove that when the boat caught fire, they were most likely to have difficulty moving due to inhaling the aroma, which is consistent with the direction we are tracing."
Surao looked at him with a smile.
Zhu Yan raised his eyes sadly and said listlessly: "But it also proves that my happiness was in vain."
He thought he had discovered something new and strange that even the girl had not noticed.
"First of all, your enthusiastic attitude towards learning is very commendable."
Surao finally understood what he meant and felt that he could not dampen his enthusiasm, so he affirmed it first and then said: "But you have studied for two or three days."
If you plan to become a master, don’t you think too little of me as a master?”
"That seems to be the truth."
Zhu Yan nodded in agreement, and suddenly became energetic again, "Then what should we do now? Where to start the examination of this charred corpse?"
He was eager to try.
The speed at which he was resurrected with full blood left Jin Xu stunned, and he thought to himself: He is worthy of being the most powerful general under the crown prince.
There is no difference between shame and swordsmanship!
"Where to start testing..."
Surao looked at Zhu Yan with a smile. When he saw her harmless and gentle expression, Zhu Yan felt a chill on his back and subconsciously rubbed his arms.
He really wanted to say, girl, don't laugh, I'm scared!
As soon as the thought passed by, Surao said: "Before the autopsy, experts have to work hard to straighten their hands, feet and bodies and make them lie flat."
The Yamen's understanding of lying down... was not the same as what she wanted.
It's also my fault that she didn't explain it clearly.
When Zhu Yan heard these words, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. He knew that this kind of thing was just like having fun, it happened for the first time and countless times.
Why would God do this to him?
But looking at the room full of people, apart from the girl, there is the handsome man Jin Dagongzi who is 'unable to restrain a chicken'...
After wailing for a long time in his heart, Zhu Yan stepped forward resignedly and began to act as a coolie.
The burned limbs were very stiff, and they could only be restored to their original state with brute force. After Zhu Yan had moved all five people, he was holding on to the table and breathing heavily from exhaustion.
"Girl, okay...okay."
He raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat.
Seeing this, Jin Xu smiled and said: "Zhu Yan, you are not strong enough. I will ask the kitchen to replenish your strength later."
Zhu Yan couldn't help but rolled her eyes at him, "If you have the ability, come."
He really put all his energy into feeding.
"You should take a break quickly. I will do the rest myself."
Su Rao smiled comfortingly at him. As soon as she spoke, the two stopped playing around and turned serious. Jin Xu asked, "A Rao, what are you going to do?"
The answer she was looking for didn't seem to be found in these people.
Surao took out a thin and sharp knife and said very calmly: "It's very simple, dissect the body."
"Autopsy... body?"
Jin Xu looked at her uncertainly, "What do you mean..."
"Cut the head and torso of the corpse layer by layer."
Surao gave him a look of affirmation, but little did he know how much impact these words had on the other two people present.
They had heard of cattle and sheep being dissected, but this was the first time they heard of someone dissecting a body!
"Are you kidding me?"
This was Jin Xu's first reaction. Not to mention him, even Zhu Yan's face froze, "Girl, why don't we just forget it..."
He suddenly regretted it.
The food cooked in the kitchen for lunch today was so delicious that he couldn't help but take two more bites, which made his stomach full.
If he couldn't bear it and vomited it out in front of Mr. Jin later, he would lose all face in the future.
Naturally, Surao didn't know what Zhu Yan was thinking about. She had repeatedly confirmed whether they were coming in earlier, but now, he didn't bother to ask the same question again.
Even if I ask, given the face-saving tempers of these two people, they will definitely stay.
Yes.
She said seriously to the two of them: "I'm going to start."
