"What if they're gone too?"
"Then you just need to agree."
oh.
Of course, this far is quite far now.
A distance of thirty miles, in the days when transportation was not so developed, gossip could not spread that far.
The murder of Zheng Xiaoqin is a serious matter and Zheng Xiaoqin's biological parents must be notified.
The police rushed to Zhengjia Village on motorcycles overnight and found Zheng Xiaoqin's parents that night.
Her father had passed away, leaving only her mother who was nearly seventy years old.
She has a bit of Alzheimer's disease and her brain is not very sharp. Her son and daughter-in-law were answering her calls the whole time.
After the police explained their purpose, the Zheng family was also shocked.
"Are you saying that my sister didn't die in childbirth?"
"We are just suspicious now, so we hope the family will cooperate in opening the coffin and conducting an autopsy. Zheng Xiaoqin's daughter Ye Xiaozhen has agreed, and as long as the old lady agrees, we will open the coffin."
"Ah? It's been dead for more than ten years and you dug it up again? How can you do that?"
"Yes, the person is dead, let's forget about the past and stop torturing the old lady."
public security:"……"
"Look at my mother, she can't stand it anymore."
Several police officers looked at each other.
How can there be such a person? His sister died, and he never went to see the children she left behind.
Now they say that they will find the murderer and avenge her, but they actually say forget it.
"What's wrong with you, old lady?"
"What's wrong? Look, she's gone insane, crazy, so crazy that she doesn't even recognize her own son. You asked her to consent to an exhumation, but how could she agree? She can't agree, she doesn't even remember my sister."
Yeah, very good.
"Remember this."
"yes."
"Then we won't bother you any more." They got up and left.
Mr. Zheng stopped them and asked, "Hey, are you leaving like this?"
"What?"
"Didn't you say you would only open the coffin and examine the body if the old lady agreed? Now that the old lady doesn't agree, you can't open it, right? You won't open it privately, right?"
Zhuan Zhi glanced at the old lady who knew nothing and said, "As long as she has a direct relative who is capable of criminal responsibility, it will happen."
This statement was ambiguous, and Mr. Zheng was unable to react for a moment.
They didn't react until everyone had left.
"What he meant was, as long as Ye... what was Ye? Ye Xiaozhen? As long as that girl agreed?"
"That seems to be what they mean. They mean that the old lady is now demented and stupid, so her consent is not needed."
"Ah? How can this be possible? Wife, you stay at home, I have to go to Xiaoxigou Village tomorrow. Open the coffin? Humph, you want to open the coffin without any benefit? No way."
…
Zheng Chang set out before dawn, riding a bicycle, and found Xiaoxigou Village based on the route he remembered.
Lin Xinghua found a Taoist priest and he was at Ye Xiaozhen's house, talking to them about opening the coffin.
Even though Ye Xiaozhen's modern thinking does not pay attention to these things, ordinary villagers here attach great importance to them.
In other words, the coffin can be opened for an autopsy, but a ritual must be performed first.
The police respected local customs and agreed that the forensic doctor should wait on the side until the Taoist priest opened the coffin.
After Zheng Xiaochang arrived at Xiaoxigou Village, he asked and found Ye Xiaozhen's home.
When he arrived, his family was discussing the details of opening the coffin with the Taoist priest.
"Which one of you is Ye Xiaozhen?"
He saw a face that looked somewhat similar to Ye Zhengguo, "Who are you?"
Ye Xiaozhen looked at the person at the gate and asked, "Who are you?"
Zheng Xiaochang said: "I am your uncle."
Ye Xiaozhen: “…”
"You are talking about opening the coffin for an autopsy, right? I don't agree. You are not allowed to open it."
Um?
Didn’t Zhunxiangzhi say that her grandfather had passed away, her grandmother had Alzheimer’s disease, and she herself was a mentally disabled patient.
Xie Linan is her guardian, so is it enough for this matter as long as Xie Linan agrees?
Xie Linan has already signed the consent form on her behalf this morning.
"I don't know if you are my uncle. I have never met you."
"What did you say? Of course I am your uncle. If you don't believe me, ask the people in your village. I came to see your mother off when she got married, and I also came to see her off when she passed away. The old people in your village all remember me."
Then he looked at Lin Xinghua and said, "I remember you. I remember you are a cripple. Tell her if I am her uncle."
Lin Xinghua: “…”
"Ahem, Xiaozhen, he is really your uncle."
Many people know Zheng 꺶chang, and there is nothing wrong with admitting this.
"Do you believe this?"
"Okay, so what if you are my uncle? You are not a direct relative, so it's useless if you disagree. I agree."
"Hey, how can you say that? I'm your mother's brother."
At this time, Xie Linan patted the other receipt of the consent form and said, "It doesn't say that the deceased's brother needs to agree. It only says direct relatives. Brothers are not direct relatives. If you think it's unreasonable, go to the police to reason with them."
Zheng Wochang looked serious, "Who are you?"
"I am Xiaozhen's legal uncle."
Zheng Xiaochang looked at Xie Linan and found him to be a handsome man.
After looking around, he looked at Ye Xiaozhen, the house, and the yard...
Judging from the clothes this family is wearing, they seem to be quite wealthy.
There is a motorcycle at the door.
His attitude suddenly changed. "We are all family, why are you saying these things? I disagree because my sister has been dead for more than ten years. It would be disrespectful to dig her up now."
Xie Linan said, "You're overthinking it. In my dreams, my mother always asks us to avenge him. She says she'll take away anyone who tries to stop her from taking revenge."
Zheng Xiaochang: "..."
"Why are you talking so horribly? It's been more than ten years. My sister must have been reincarnated long ago. Maybe she can get married again."
"No, no, no, she was murdered. She didn't reincarnate. She said that she would never reincarnate unless she saw the murderer brought to justice. Uncle, I advise you not to stop us from opening the coffin and performing an autopsy. This is Xiaoxigou Village. My mother has been wandering around here all these years. Maybe she is watching you right now."
ah?
Zheng Xiaochang shuddered unconsciously, swallowed his saliva, and did not mention the matter of not opening the coffin again.
"It's not that I don't want to avenge her, I just think... they might have another way."
Ye Xiaozhen was a little speechless, and said lightly: "If there is another way, I won't mention it. Uncle, although I look like this, this is the first time I see you, and I still call you Uncle. If you are here to help, to help the police solve the case as soon as possible, I welcome you. But if you are here to stop us from finding out the truth, I'm sorry, please leave now."
Zheng Xiaochang's face darkened.
Why is this girl so sharp-tongued?
After all, I am her uncle, how can she say something like that to chase me away?
