Wu Lei did not take Song Jiang's "euphemistic" warning to heart, and even scorned Song Jiang's "ghost theory", but he soon paid the price for his "ignorance"...
Wu Lei originally had nothing to do that night, but just after he broke up with Song Jiang and the others, he received a call from the team, saying that they had just picked up a client who slipped and fell into the water and drowned, and asked him to go back and work overtime overnight.
When he returned to the unit, he happened to meet his assistant Xiao Liu. Wu Lei asked strangely, "Since it has been confirmed that he lost his footing and drowned, why do we need to conduct an autopsy?!"
After hearing this, Xiao Liu said with a sad face, "Isn't it because the family members have doubts about the cause of death? They said that the deceased had very good swimming skills before his death and was a member of the university swimming team. It is impossible for him to slip and drown."
Upon hearing this, Wu Lei felt that what the family members said made sense, so he went to the dressing room to change clothes, and then prepared to go to the anatomy room to work overtime. Unexpectedly, as soon as he changed into his work clothes and came out, he saw a man covered in water standing in the corridor.
Wu Lei looked around and found that there was no colleague in the corridor, so he quickly walked forward and asked, "Sir...who are you looking for?"
The man raised his head suddenly after hearing the voice, looked at Wu Lei with some surprise and said, "You...are you talking to me?"
Wu Lei was also confused by the other party's question. He thought to himself that there are only two of us in this entire corridor. Is it possible that I am talking to you or a ghost? But considering that the other party was an ordinary citizen, he had no choice but to patiently say, "Sir, are you here to report a crime?"
The man opened his mouth, as if he was thinking of something to say, but when he saw the words "anatomy room" written on the door behind Wu Lei, his face instantly turned pale. When Wu Lei saw this, he thought there was something wrong with the other person's body. He felt uncomfortable, so he hurriedly wanted to go forward to check, but the next second the man suddenly spat out a large amount of sand from his mouth, which shocked Wu Lei and backed away...
"Forensic Doctor Wu?" Xiao Liu came out of the office after hearing the noise. Seeing Wu Lei standing at the door of the anatomy room with a frightened face, he quickly asked.
Wu Lei quickly calmed down after seeing Xiao Liu, but when he looked at where the man was standing again, he found that it was empty, as if nothing had happened just now...
At this time, Xiao Liu walked up to him and asked worriedly, "Forensic Doctor Wu, are you okay?!"
Wu Lei shook his head awkwardly and said, "It's nothing... maybe it's because he hasn't had a good rest these days." After finishing speaking, he hurried into the anatomy room without waiting for Xiao Liu to speak, ready to start tonight's work. .
Xiao Liu is the intern Wu Lei has recently taken care of. He is smart and hard-working. Seeing that Wu Lei seemed to be in a bad mental state today, he hurried over to help Wu Lei take the body out of the freezer. Who knows when he pulled the body out of the freezer? When he opened the zipper of the body bag, Wu Lei on the side instantly froze in place...
This was the first time in his life that Wu Lei felt numbness on his scalp and chills on his head... The man who suddenly appeared and then disappeared at the door of the dissecting room turned out to be the one Wu Lei was going to dissect next. corpse.
Perhaps because he noticed something strange about Wu Lei, Xiao Liu asked tentatively, "Forensic Doctor Wu... How about you go to the office to rest for a while? I will complete the preliminary preparations?!"
Wu Lei, who came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's okay. Let's finish the work early... Let me tell you the details of the deceased first."
As a forensic doctor who can work independently, Wu Lei quickly entered into working mode. At this time, Xiao Liu took a copy of the deceased's information and read, "The deceased's name is Zheng Shengtao. He is 27 years old today. Yesterday morning, he was with a few friends. Let's go fishing together in a reservoir in the suburbs. Because Zheng Shengtao's water quality has always been very good, when he lost his footing and fell into the water, several friends thought he was joking with everyone. They didn't know until Zheng Shengtao lurked under the water for more than 5 minutes and didn't come up. Something happened, but unfortunately none of the people on the shore could swim. By the time they called the reservoir manager to go into the water to rescue people, Zheng Shengtao’s body had already floated up on its own.”
After hearing this, Wu Lei looked at the swollen belly of the corpse. He immediately thought of the puddle of mud that Zheng Shengtao had just spat out of his mouth. He suddenly felt a sense of discomfort in his heart. This was something he had never experienced since he started working as a forensic doctor. ...But as a professional forensic doctor, Wu Lei quickly adjusted his condition and completed the following anatomy work.
There is no doubt that Zheng Shengtao drowned, but when they opened his abdominal cavity and saw his stomach full of sludge, Wu Lei and Xiao Liu were both stunned. Wu Lei had never seen a drowned corpse. But this was the first time that there was so much silt in my stomach.
"This guy... won't die of eating mud, right?" Xiao Liu couldn't help but complain.
Wu Lei also felt that there was a bit too much silt in Zheng Shengtao's stomach. A normal person who drowned must have sediment, algae and other substances in the mouth, nose and stomach, but to this extent... it was a bit excessive.
It was already past ten o'clock in the evening when the autopsy ended, so Wu Lei asked Xiao Liu to go back and rest first, while he stayed to write the autopsy report. But for some reason, Wu Lei felt a little panicked and could not calm down to write the report. He even kept recalling the scene he saw at the door of the anatomy room in his mind...
Just when Wu Lei was about to get up and make himself a cup of coffee to refresh himself, he suddenly saw a drop of sewage falling on his desk. Wu Lei looked up and saw a pale face. The human face is suspended above his head, and sewage is constantly flowing out of the mouth and nose of the human face.
Song Jiang was pacing back and forth in the library at this time. He severely criticized Meng Zhe's behavior today, but Meng Zhe said that Wu Lei's horoscope was very tough and that even if he saw a ghost, nothing would happen to him, and he was only temporarily opening the door. When the sun rises tomorrow, Wu Lei's yin and yang eyes will automatically close.
Having said that, Song Jiang is still very worried. After all, Wu Lei's work is of a special nature, and the chance of seeing a ghost is greater than ordinary people. Thinking of this, Song Jiang decided to give Wu Lei a call to feel at ease...
Unexpectedly, as soon as the call was connected, Wu Lei's voice was heard asking Song Jiang in horror, "Did that man named Meng do something to me today?"
Song Jiang knew something was wrong as soon as he heard this, and quickly asked, "Where are you?!"
"Where else can I be, of course at work!" Wu Lei said angrily.
Song Jiang also got angry after hearing this, "You...didn't I tell you not to go out tonight? Why can't you understand human speech?!"
"I can't understand human speech? I have work, why don't I go out?! You, you... come to my work quickly!! Hurry up!" After Wu Lei finished speaking, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
