Chapter 8: Has the cause of death been found?

The others also felt the change in atmosphere and immediately lowered their eyes, not daring to even breathe.

Ye Linghan's handsome face was gloomy. He glanced at Su Xing, who still had a hint of anger on his face, and ordered in a cold voice: "Continue talking."

Su Xing immediately switched to work mode, his expression serious and earnest, his long eyebrows slightly knitted together: "There is nothing wrong with these two things on their own, but there is a problem when they are put together."

Everyone was a little confused. What did they mean there was no problem with them themselves, but there was a problem with being together?

Su Xing knew that everyone would be confused, and was about to explain when Ye Linghan interrupted him: "Are you saying that they will become toxic when they come into contact with each other?"

Su Xing was stunned for a moment, then he opened his eyes wide with excitement, looked at Ye Linghan and said excitedly: "Yes! That's it!"

As expected of Ye Linghan, he is really amazing. I understood it without him explaining it.

The others also understood Su Xing's meaning through Ye Linghan's words, but then they had new questions.

"These two things are personal belongings, it's hard to put them together." Liu Yan was concerned about the case and asked first: "Especially this incense burner, it's usually placed in the bedroom or living room, it's impossible to take it out."

Su Xing withdrew his admiring gaze from Ye Linghan's face and turned to look at Liu Yan. His tone became serious again: "Sir Liu, I don't carry the incense burner with me, but I do carry the snuff bottle. Besides, the incense burner is not the point, the incense in the burner is."

As he spoke, Su Xing couldn't help but wonder in his heart, how did Liu Yan get the position of Minister of Justice?

Such a stupid brain...

Liu Yan was stunned by the questioning look in Su Xing's eyes. After he understood what was going on, he became furious and immediately said angrily: "You need an incense burner to burn incense!"

Isn't this the same thing!

"You mean..." Ye Linghan's voice sounded again, although it was not loud, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the surroundings automatically quieted down: "The Minister of War lit incense at home, and the incense attached to his body, and then he stayed with the Minister of Rites who brought a snuff bottle, and it became toxic?"

"That's right! The Regent is really..." Su Xing almost praised Ye Linghan for being very smart in public, but fortunately he stopped at the critical moment and instead put on a flattering smile.

But he really thought Ye Linghan was amazing, and it was so easy to communicate with such a person.

The others instantly realized that this was how the poison came about. It was too incredible.

"It's complete nonsense!" Chen Lin didn't believe such a ridiculous thing. How could there be such a way of killing in the world?

It was obvious that no one doubted it, and they shouted hurriedly: "You are just imagining this! Do you have any evidence?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen." Su Xing said bluntly, "I will definitely prove it. Otherwise, how would you know how shallow your knowledge is?"

He believed that Chen Lin was a coroner with extensive experience in autopsies, but he hated Chen Lin's self-righteous character.

There are too many incredible things in this world. Even if you have experienced a lot, there are definitely many things you don’t know.

If you always perform autopsies with the mentality of thinking you know everything, many details will be overlooked, which would delay the case, but what if it leads to wrongful convictions?

Chen Lin was so angry that he froze on the spot. When he came to his senses, Su Xing had already walked to the other side of the table with the evidence.

"Please help me catch a living thing." Su Xing said to the guards around him: "A chicken or a duck will do."

Su Xing changed the topic so quickly that the guards were stunned.

Ye Linghan turned his head and looked at Tianyi. Tianyi understood and immediately walked in front of Su Xing and asked politely: "Is the bird okay?"

Su Xing was stunned. Bird?

He subconsciously looked at Tianyi's lower body, fortunately he stopped halfway. He coughed awkwardly and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay..."

Tianyi glanced at Su Xing strangely, then turned and left.

Ye Linghan kept staring at Su Xing's slightly red earlobe with a deep gaze, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Tianyi was so fast, it seemed like he had just gone out and came back with a chirping and struggling sparrow in his hand.

Su Xing quickly stepped forward and took it: "Thank you." He never dared to look at Tianyi.

He took out a bamboo basket from under the table, put the sparrow in it and covered it with the lid.

Everyone was stunned. Where did this basket come from?

There has never been a coroner's office!

Under the surprised gaze of everyone, Su Xing took another half-burned incense stick from the incense burner, lit it, and then stuffed it into the gap of the bamboo basket.

Then he took out the snuff bottle.

Except for Ye Linghan and others, everyone else involuntarily took a few steps back.

Su Xing turned around after hearing the noise and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this amount is fine."

The half stick of incense burned out quickly, and a faint woody aroma wafted through the autopsy room, making the originally silent and cold place become much softer.

After a while, Su Xing opened the lid of the snuff bottle and placed the opening towards the gap in the bamboo basket.

While doing these things, Su Xing's expression was extremely focused. His bright eyes stared at the bamboo basket without blinking, and his fair face showed a seriousness that indicated that no one was allowed to disturb him.

Others were also infected by this scene and held their breath, widened their eyes, and waited patiently.

Chen Lin, who had not believed it at all, suddenly became nervous. He stood in the corner, staring at Su Xing with a gloomy and fierce look, clenching his upper and lower teeth tightly. If you listen carefully, you can hear a "crunching" sound...

As Su Xing opened the bamboo basket, everyone's heart rose in tension, as if it would burst through their throats and jump out of their mouths at the next moment.

After the bamboo basket was opened, the sparrows that were originally lively and energetic suddenly became motionless.

Everyone was curious about what happened, but they didn't dare to look past Ye Linghan.

Ye Linghan didn't move, as if he didn't care that much about this matter, but his eyes were always fixed on Su Xing.

When Su Xing took out the sparrow and turned around to show it to everyone, Ye Linghan's black eyes suddenly tightened.

"Is the sparrow dead?" Someone exclaimed, and then there were continuous exclamations.

It’s really poisonous!

The cause of death was found!

The exclamations soon turned into cheers. After being dragged on for so long, the case finally made some progress!

Ye Linghan still had that cold expression, and his dark eyes, which had been tightened just now, returned to normal.

Suddenly, he raised his foot and walked towards Su Xing. Everyone immediately quieted down when they saw this.

Su Xing felt a great sense of accomplishment from the exclamations and the admiring expressions on everyone's faces. Just when he was feeling a little proud, he saw Ye Linghan approaching. He shuddered and quickly put on a docile and timid expression: "Prince Regent, please have a look."

As he spoke, he stretched his hand forward.

Ye Linghan's eyes slowly moved from Su Xing's handsome face to Sparrow. He stared at Sparrow for a while before speaking: "Many people have these two hobbies at the same time. Why are they fine? Logically speaking, wouldn't they die faster?"

One sentence awakened the dreamer, and everyone was stunned...
