Forensic Traversing Notes

Chapter 14: Beat the drum to complain

Views:

"Open the coffin for an autopsy?!" Everyone was shocked.

An autopsy is actually not unusual for the Lu family. Lu Feng's grandfather was an executioner and also served as a coward. There are cases in the yamen, and it's all Mr. Lu who goes to look at them. Later, Lu Feng's eldest uncle inherited his father's business, and Lu Feng's father became a pig butcher, so the Lu family knew a little about the way of doing this, and they didn't think there was anything shy about it.

Dayou didn't pay much attention to autopsy when he was investigating cases in his early years. In many places, there was no job that was solely responsible for autopsy, and most of them were part-time jobs like Lu Feng's grandfather. The job responsibility is to look at the injury, the cause of death, etc. in a superficial way. Most of the simple and crude ones only see the surface, and have not studied it in depth. No one has ever summed up and passed on to future generations like Song Ci, so the overall technical level of his works is very low.

In recent years, Dayou has only gradually realized the importance of co-operation in criminal cases. Compared with before, he has paid more attention to it, but his development is still backward, and the role of co-operation in solving cases is not great.

Lu Feng was puzzled, "Wang Fu died three years ago, now that the coffin is opened, there are only bones, and he was not hacked to death by a sword. What can we see?"

Solemnly said: "A person will not die for no reason, and an autopsy is an important part of finding the cause of death. Sometimes it is more true than what the living say. The living will lie, and the dead will conceal or mislead, but as long as the method is proper , can know the truth. Although there are only bones left, it is more difficult to find out the cause of death, but it is not impossible. Now there is no other evidence, and opening the coffin for autopsy is the only way to know the truth at present."

Everyone was silent, opening the coffin for an autopsy was not a simple matter. Everyone in the world says that it is safe to enter the earth, and the peace of the dead should not be disturbed. If there is no reason that can convince everyone, the Wang Fu clan will definitely not agree.

Mrs. Wu was just speculating, and she herself didn't know whether Wang Fu died of illness or had other hidden secrets. Even if Lu Feng is powerful and powerful, he must not overwhelm others with his power, otherwise he will be stabbed and impeached, and he will definitely not be able to walk around.

Lu Feng frowned slightly, and asked, "You talk like that, but you know how to do an autopsy?"

Zhuang Zhong never thought of hiding that he would do an autopsy, and even thought of a reason to prevaricate. He already liked this profession, and it was a very fulfilling thing to be able to describe what the deceased had no time to say and what he had experienced before his death, so as to help solve the case. In addition, future planning may also rely on this skill, so Zhuang Zhong did not hide it, and said to himself: "I will, and I should be better than most of you."

Lu Feng was slightly surprised, Zhuang Zhong had always given him a very humble feeling, but he never expected to be so arrogant, "How sure are we that we can find out the truth?"

"Sixty percent."

Lu Feng choked, and the faces of the others were not good-looking. They dared to say that they were better than most of the masters with only a 60% certainty. I really didn't know how to describe it.

According to the knowledge he has mastered, Zhuang Zhong definitely knows more than Zuo Youzuo. This is due to the light of later generations of science and technology and modern medicine. But in the past, he had a lot of auxiliary equipment, but now the accuracy will be much lower without it, and the situation will become more complicated after three years. Fortunately, he traveled across with the inspection box, at least the autopsy tools did not need to be prepared separately, all the tools he had at hand were in it, which was already not easy.

Now I don't know what's going on with the corpse, and I can't do many tests, and I don't know how much Dayou accepts the autopsy. If you say too much or too little, it will affect the judgment of the person involved. Dayou custom here, allowing the exhumation of the coffin requires great courage and the ability to resist blows. Some family members still don't understand it in modern times, let alone here.

Mrs. Wu said firmly: "I will try even 10% of it. If there is no secret, it will be fine. If it is true that your Uncle Wang was killed as said in the dream, if I can't find the real culprit, I won't have the face to see him after he dies." !"

Fifth Madam said worriedly: "But this matter is not up to you to decide, and now the royal family members are making things difficult for you because of the establishment of a stepson. If you mention this matter, it will definitely cause a bloodbath."

Wu is fearless, the originally haggard and gentle woman is extremely strong, "If I am afraid of these, how can I have the face to call myself Wang Fu's wife? I will take care of this matter, but when the time comes, I will ask Brother Zhong to come out."

Mrs. Wu bowed deeply to Zhuang Zhong, who dared not accept her gift, so she turned sideways quickly and helped her up.

"My aunt is hurting me like this."

"An autopsy is not a glorious thing, and the result will definitely damage your reputation. All this is my obsession, and I shouldn't have brought you into it, but there is really no other way. Still being so self-willed." Wu felt guilty, but Wang Fu's death was not clear, and he couldn't feel at ease, so he could only feel sorry for his solemnity.

He solemnly smiled and said: "If I don't want to make a move, how can I give you hope? Besides, you are my elder, and respecting the elder is the most extolled virtue of Dayou. The elder's life is inescapable, no matter what the result is, no one will say anything about me It's amazing that my aunt trusts me and takes such a big risk for it."

But Lu Feng heard something else from Wu's words, "You are so sure, are you going to go to court? If nothing can be found out, you will definitely be punished at that time."

When Lu Balang heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Mother, absolutely not! Let's dig the grave secretly and take a look. If there is something tricky, we will go to court. Otherwise, if Brother Chong can't see anything, you will not be punished. I can't see anyone anymore."

But Mrs. Wu was unmoved, "Brother Chong is not afraid of losing his reputation, so why should I be afraid? If we are so sneaky, even if we really find out something, we won't take it for granted and we will hurt Brother Chong. No matter what the result is, at least I have done it and I feel at ease. Even if everyone calls me a crazy woman in the end, I will admit it. After I am punished, I will not think about what I have. I will have an explanation to you, Uncle Wang. Okay. Come on, stop trying to persuade me, who came out of the Lu family is a dirty wimp hiding behind?! All of them are daring."

When everyone saw what Wu said, they stopped persuading them, even if they heard that their closest relative died for no reason, they couldn't let go. But they had such a dream again, and the person who had the opportunity happened to know the autopsy, and could know the cause of death from the dead body. All the coincidences made them feel that God was hinting at something. Because of this, everyone didn't find it surprising that Zhuang Zhong knew the art of autopsy at such an age, and said so loudly.

This matter must have been put aside first, and the Lu family returned to its original cheerful appearance. They are all a group of heartless people, complain when they should complain, and play when they should play. They don't affect each other, but they have a good time.

It was even more lively at dinner time. Although it was a big family, men and women did not separate tables, and there were no rules. There were so many people that they were divided into two tables. Obviously, the meals at each table were the same and the portions were large enough to eat, but since the first dish was served, the two sides began to fight, no matter men, women, young or old, they fought over there as if they hadn’t eaten in a few lifetimes. . I didn’t even lose my solemnity. When I participated in the battle, I was very proud to be able to grab some. If you like to eat or not, you should swallow it first. The spoils of war always make people feel very delicious, but in the end they are unknowingly overwhelmed .

Lu Feng stepped on the chair with one foot while picking his teeth, "As expected of a member of our Lu family, I feel relieved when I see you."

Shameless and ruthless, she will never be bullied.

After a solemn pause, the movement of drinking tea slowed down.

Lu Feng slapped Zhuang Zhong on the back of the head, almost knocking the cup in Zhuang Zhong's hand flying, "Uncle?"

"Don't put on such a bad face at such a young age. Since I, Lu Feng, recognize you as a family, you will be a member of our Lu family no matter what."

Solemnly surprised, he tried to see something from Lu Feng's eyes but found nothing.

Lu Feng didn't look at him, and said again: "But I, Lu Feng, don't like others to lie to me. Who do I think is a fool? Not telling you that it's for your own good is not feasible for me."

The tea in Zhuang Zhong's hand could not be drunk at all.

"Young master, this Lu's family is really interesting. I haven't seen any restaurant that eats like that. It's really unruly. Young master?" Dongzi recounted what he had seen and heard about Lu's family today with relish, and found that Zhuang Zhong didn't know what to do. where to go.

Only then did Zhuang Zhong come to his senses, "Yeah, it's very lively, I haven't had such a good meal for a long time."

Was Lu Feng's words hinting at him? Solemn thought to himself, each of these people is more difficult than the other. But thinking about how many of them climbed from Baiding to where they are today, how many people are confused.

News soon came from Wu's side, Wu's rushed to the Yamen to beat drums to appeal for grievances, and Lu Feng secretly pushed, the governor of the capital read the papers, and immediately approved the opening of the coffin for re-examination, in order to save lives.

The people of Wang Fu's clan were all shocked when they heard the words. The Wu family knew about the strange cause of Wang Fu's death before. Doesn't this make the people who have been buried in the soil restless

And because the Wu family has never let go of the matter of setting up a stepson, the Wang family members were very angry for various reasons. On the day the coffin was opened, a group of Wang family members surrounded the cemetery to prevent the officers and soldiers from moving the grave.

Although the Wang family is not a prominent family, it is also a big family in the local area with a large number of people. The clan has a certain amount of power, and even the government will respect the rules of the big clan to a certain extent. As long as major incidents such as rebellion are not involved, when there is a collision with this kind of clan, the government will give in to a certain extent and negotiate with it to find support, and will not act violently, otherwise it will eventually be blamed for causing public resentment.

Wu's didn't have enough evidence, it was just conjecture, even if the government intervened, it would still be a bit unreasonable.

"Well, you Wu family, just say why you have been delaying in having a stepson, and you are causing trouble again. Do you have to let me, Wang Fu, die without peace before you stop?" A clan elder pointed at Wu family and yelled.

Wang Gui was even more heartbroken, "Sister-in-law, why did you do this? My elder brother was kind to you before he was alive, why did you abuse him like this."

Facing the aggressive Wang clan, Wu did not flinch, "My husband went out to check the accounts three years ago, and suddenly died of a sudden illness for no reason. I died of illness and was harmed by others! As my wife, I can’t ignore my husband’s words. Today I invite you to avenge my husband’s grievances, just to find out the truth of the past!”

A clan elder said: "You kept saying that Wang Fu was killed by someone, but at that time we saw that there was nothing wrong with him, so we let him be buried. Now three years have passed and you have disturbed his peace again because of a dream. Forget it, if you can't find anything, what should you do?"

Wu's voice was loud and clear, "If it's really me who was suspicious and disturbed the peace of my husband, I, Wu Huiniang, think that I am confused and have no right to decide on the matter of setting up a stepson."

As soon as the words fell, there was a lot of discussion among the people. Could it be that the cause of Wang Fu's death was really different, otherwise, how dare the Wu family make it conditional on giving up the qualification to be a stepson? The establishment of a stepson determines whether the Wu family can control Wang Fu to leave an inheritance.

The members of the Wang clan have been shaken, but many people still feel that this is inappropriate. This is disrespectful to the deceased, and they are not allowed to move except to move the grave, otherwise it is disrespectful. That would ruin the feng shui of the ancestors and bring disaster to the Wang family.

The two sides were at a stalemate, when an impatient voice came, "It won't work, open the coffin for an autopsy now!"
