Open the cabinet and conduct an autopsy? !
Not to mention Li Shitong and Ma Shicai, even the squire Li Zheng who was observing the interrogation burst into laughter.
They all laughed secretly in their hearts: Qin Tianming, Qin Tianming, I'm afraid the body has long been turned into bones, and the investigation is useless!
Even if Qin Tianming looks at a rotting corpse for three days and three nights, it will not help.
This person is too troublesome to do things. If you follow him to solve cases in the future, you will definitely suffer a lot.
"The body is still in good condition and is kept in the warehouse. It can be opened for autopsy!"
Fortunately, Master Tan Laosi's words during the banquet proved that everyone's worries were unnecessary. The body of the victim Wu Wan had not been buried, but was kept in the county government ice bank.
It turns out that this was all because of the interference of Mr. Wu from the imperial court. The case was not completely closed and the body was preserved.
If it weren't for Mr. Wu's strong intervention, Wu Wan's body would have been buried long ago.
However, because the Daxia Dynasty was really backward in technology, the technology for preserving corpses was quite crude. They just kept the corpses in cabinets filled with ice cubes. After a few months, they would probably have rotted away for no apparent reason. How could there be an autopsy?
Everyone started laughing again.
Qin Tianming didn't bother to explain more and hurriedly ordered Li Tai:
"Captain Li, the matter is urgent. Go and pick up Wu Wan's body now. I want to check it myself!"
Li Shitong and Ma Shicai were a little nervous, so they stopped and said:
"Qin Tianming, I'm afraid the body has been rotting for many days, so why don't you stop playing with it?"
"The dead are great, don't be a cheap corpse!"
Qin Tianming raised his hand and wanted to slap these two bastards in the face. He thought, maybe you two were such big liars and almost accidentally hurt others. You also called me a cheap corpse. At the same time, he shouted:
"You two, stand down! This case is a major one for the court. If it cannot be solved within the time limit, not only will I die, but your two heads will also be lost! Stand back!"
Li Shitong and Ma Shicai looked at the aggressive Qin Tianming and were frightened, so they could only nod in agreement.
After a while, the two arresters, Li Tai and Han Meng, led a group of detectives and carried Wu Wan's body into the hall.
The corpse was placed on the corpse table.
Under the red lights, the corpse glowed with a cyan glow, and it looked very permeable amid the smoke.
Qin Tianming ordered people to light a few lanterns and led everyone to tremble in front of the body.
Before they could reach the corpse, the strong smell almost knocked everyone over.
Everyone covered their noses and hesitated to move forward.
Qin Tianming grabbed a lantern from a policeman and went directly to check it without taking the corpse pole.
Fortunately, he was a master of dissection in his previous life and encountered countless rotting corpses before he dared to look forward.
Otherwise, who would dare to look at a half-rotten, half-complete mummy?
There was silence in the hall. Under the red light of the lantern, the head of the corpse was somewhat rotten, and the entire skull was exposed. A pair of black eye sockets looked directly at the roof.
The limbs are curled up and the hands and feet are spread out, as if they want to bite the stone horse.
Qin Tianming held a lantern and carefully looked around the body, and found that the body's torso was relatively well preserved.
The sky has eyes, so I'm lucky.
In the corpse mist, a thick layer of corpse wax wrapped around the corpse.
Qin Tianming visually measured the thickness of the corpse wax, which was about 45% thick.
Detailed records in the book "Ancient Corpse Records" appeared before his eyes:
If the deceased is kept in a closed environment or in water, due to lack of oxygen, the body will not rot immediately, but corpse wax will appear, which will protect the corpse. According to ancient corpse records, if the corpse wax is one minute thick, the time of death of the deceased is one month, and if it is two minutes thick, the time of death is two months. By analogy, the time of death of the deceased can be accurately determined.
Qin Tianming stretched out his fingers and traced the broken part of the corpse wax, and immediately shook his head.
It’s exactly the same as what I just estimated!
I just hate that Li Shitong and the others were so careless in their autopsy!
The most crucial evidence was missed!
Seeing Qin Tianming tinkering with the corpse, Li Shitong, Ma Shicai and others didn't know why, so they covered their noses and looked forward.
Everyone was feeling anxious and uneasy.
After a long time, Qin Tianming finished inspecting the body, suddenly stood up, and ordered Li Tai:
"Okay, I've finished the inspection. Mr. Li, you can carry the body down."
Li Tai and others quickly carried away the body.
Everyone was stunned and didn't understand what Qin Tianming had figured out.
Is this pig-slaughterer trying to be mysterious? How do you greet everyone with a mummified body that is several months old?
Amid everyone's puzzled looks, Qin Tianming put his hands on his hips and looked up at the roof alone, clicking his tongue and sighing repeatedly:
"Mistake, huge mistake! If Li Sheng hadn't reminded me, I almost made a big mistake! Terrible, terrible!"
Li Shitong and Ma Shicai went up in a panic and asked:
"Qin Tianming, have you found any doubts about Shima?"
Li Shitong and Ma Shicai were more nervous than Qin Tianming.
Qin Tianming raised his hand to push the two of them away and said loudly:
"Hurry up and invite the Minister of Dali Temple and County Magistrate Gao. I want to resolve the case now!"
"Conclude the case now!?"
When Li Shitong heard this, his eyes were bigger than hard-boiled eggs, and he shouted:
"Qin Tianming, are you crazy? You didn't even listen to the clock outside. It's already passed the third watch, and you still want to trouble the two adults to come out and suffer? Are you looking for death?!"
Qin Tianming said decisively:
"You guys are talking like farts! Do you know how anxious I am? I am a person who has made decisions about life and death, but I am no better than you two guys who care about human life!"
Li Shitong was furious when he heard this and wanted to kill Qin Tianming again.
Qin Tianming took the risk, handed his head to Li Shitong, and said:
"Come on, come on, kill me now! If you kill me, Wu Wan's case will become a death case from now on, and no one will know the mystery from now on. Wouldn't you just succeed?!"
Li Shitong was so angry that he looked at Qin Tianming fiercely with his knife and started to chop him!
Suddenly, a figure rushed out like lightning and raised his sword to swing away Li Shitong's saber.
There was a strong sound and Li Shitong was almost knocked down.
Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was the beauty in black again!
Li Shitong staggered back and shouted for someone to come.
All the prisoners rushed forward, surrounded Gao Yanjiao, and drew their swords towards each other.
The two sides were at loggerheads.
When a group of people were in a stalemate, they suddenly heard someone shouting outside the hall:
"The imperial envoy has arrived!"
The crowd dispersed in a hurry.
Gao Yanjiao also stepped aside.
After a while, the imperial envoy Xu Ruhai was sleepy, holding his hat and walking up to the hall with small steps.
He was followed by County Magistrate Gao Buwei and Fa Cao Li Zhi.
The three of them were all wearing underwear. They didn't have time to put on their official uniforms, so they looked like they had rushed here in a hurry.
Everyone quickly stood up according to the plank and lined up one by one.
Xu Ruhai hit Ha Qie, sat on the imperial chair, touched the gavel, lightly patted the table and said:
"Do you still want to make people sleep? Are you making trouble with the stone horse? You are making me unable to sleep!"
Li Shitong hurriedly fell to his knees, and the villain complained first:
"Sir, it's this Qin Tianming who conducts autopsies in the middle of the night and makes the dogs and chickens restless! It's hard for both the dead and the living to rest in peace. I think we should simply take him and put him on death row for questioning!"
Gao Yanjiao suddenly stepped forward, pointed her sword at Li Shitong, and said coldly:
"I think the person who deserves death is you! A habitual criminal who cares about human life! The big bad guy!"
Li Shitong drew his sword and glared angrily, and the two began to confront each other again.
Xu Ruhai gave a slap in the face and shouted:
"Okay, okay, you two should leave now. I and the county magistrate are going to resolve the case, so why don't you get out of here!"
Li Shitong took the lead in sheathing his sword, and Gao Yanjiao then retreated.
Looking at Qin Tianming standing in the hall, Gao Buwei asked unhappily:
"Qin Tianming, you called us in the middle of the night to listen to you to decide the case. Do you have any clues about Wu Wan's case?"
Qin Tianming nodded and said:
"Master Xu, Master Gao, the case is basically settled, but do you want to hear my analysis of the case?"
When Xu Ruhai heard this, he immediately became happy and said energetically:
"Oh, Qin Tianming, you are really awesome and you have lived up to my expectations. Since you have discovered the clues, why don't you tell me quickly and hear about it!"
Qin Tianming straightened up his clothes, stepped forward and said:
"Sir, if I didn't make any mistakes in the investigation, there were major omissions in Wu Wan's case, which led to us wrongfully accusing Li Sheng!"
Li Shitong and Ma Shicai were a little panicked and said one after another:
"Qin Tianming, you have to be careful what you say. Don't just talk nonsense and make nonsense just because you have made a decision about life and death!"
The county magistrate Gao Buwei didn't believe it. A case that even the Dali Temple Yushitai and the Ministry of Punishment couldn't handle. You, a little bastard, threatened to solve it in less than twelve hours. Are you really fooling around?
Gao Buwei said seriously:
"Qin Tianming, this is a court, please don't talk nonsense!"
Qin Tianming said generously:
"I have definite proof!"
Gao Buwei shook his head and said:
"You must be responsible for your words and deeds!"
Xu Ruhai, the minister of Dali Temple, waved his hands hurriedly and said:
"Magistrate Gao, let's not talk about this. Let's first listen to him explain his reasoning."
Qin Tianming strode forward and said loudly:
"According to my autopsy judgment, the deceased Wu Wan you call was not Wu Wan at all. The deceased was another person. That's why Li Sheng refused to plead guilty. Do you understand!?"
impossible!
impossible!
Hearing this, Ma Shicai jumped over the wall and shouted:
"Impossible! Impossible! Qin Tianming, you are talking nonsense! Damn it! You deserve to be killed!"
The autopsy was performed by Ma Shicai, so he didn't dare to lie.
Yang Xiaocui's case was messed up. If there are any more omissions in Wu Wan's case now, Ma Shicai will inevitably die!
Li Shitong was also a little dumbfounded. This pig-killer overturned two cases in succession as soon as he appeared on the scene, which made him, a famous grassroots judge in Daxia, feel ashamed.
Li Shitong mumbled and said:
"This, this, this is impossible, Qin Tianming, don't you dare talk nonsense!"
The county magistrate Gao Buwei was also startled. He lowered his head and asked Qin Tianming in the hall:
"Qin Tianming, you can't just talk nonsense. What you say needs evidence. Otherwise, I will convict you of fraud, and you will die earlier and more embarrassingly! Do you understand?"
Even Xu Ruhai, who had always been optimistic about Qin Tianming, snorted and said to Qin Tianming:
"Qin Tianming, as far as I know, Wu Wan's body was inspected by the Ministry of Punishment and senior officials from Dali Temple. These people are extraordinary. Don't you dare to joke about the corpses they inspected?"
Gao Buwei said:
"Qin Tianming, you have to know that Daxia's criminal law is very strict. If there is a mistake in the autopsy, the person who performed the autopsy will be tortured. Don't you understand?!"
