Chapter 3 Can you perform an autopsy?
Everyone was stunned at first, and then looked in the direction of the sound.
When they saw that it was Su Xing, everyone had an expression of disbelief and absurdity.
A useless young man who probably doesn't even dare to kill a chicken actually wants to go and see the corpse?
In order to escape the punishment of the Regent, he would try any means!
How could Su Xing not know what these people were thinking?
But he didn't care about that because this might be his only chance to survive.
He had just secretly looked at the file. Five days ago, the Minister of War, Lord Li, was found dead in his bedroom, and the cause of death has not been determined yet.
Now another person has died, also a Shangshu, and his cause of death is the same. This is definitely not a coincidence.
Although he was not from this era, he knew how serious a matter it was that two important officials of the imperial court died in a short period of time.
Ye Linghan just asked him what he could do. Isn’t this the opportunity?
But will Ye Linghan give him this opportunity?
Su Xing mustered up the courage to look up at Ye Linghan, and saw that Ye Linghan suddenly stood up from the chair and walked towards him!
This is···
Su Xing subconsciously took a step back: "Regent..."
Before he could finish his words, he felt a strong sense of suffocation in his neck. Ye Linghan actually strangled him!
Why?
Is it because of what happened just now or yesterday?
"What's your connection with this case?" Ye Linghan's voice was not loud, but it was very penetrating. Every word was like a steel nail piercing Su Xing's eardrum.
Su Xing was so frightened that his heart almost stopped beating. Only then did he truly understand how terrifying Ye Linghan was. He was simply like a man-eating demon.
Fortunately, he still had his sanity, and instantly realized that Ye Linghan had misunderstood him. He suppressed the discomfort in his throat and said intermittently: "It doesn't matter... I just... know how to perform autopsies... I want to help... solve the case... and make up for my mistake..."
After saying the last two words, he almost died. His vision went dark, his head swelled, and even his consciousness became blurred.
Ye Linghan stared at Su Xing for a while without saying a word, as if judging the truthfulness of his words.
Was the excitement and excitement he saw in Su Xing's eyes just because he was going to perform an autopsy?
But how could Su Xing perform an autopsy?
Just when Su Xing thought he was really going to die, his neck suddenly loosened. Feeling the fresh air, he immediately opened his mouth and took a deep breath.
Before he could catch his breath, Ye Linghan's cold and ruthless voice came from above his head: "You said you can do an autopsy?"
Su Xing was stunned for a moment, then he quickly stood up and nodded frantically at Ye Linghan: "I can!"
Just when he was thinking about how to make Ye Linghan believe that he could perform an autopsy, he suddenly heard Ye Linghan say: "Go to the Ministry of Justice!"
Now, not only Su Xing was confused, but everyone else was confused as well. How could the Regent believe such ridiculous words? And let him go to the Ministry of Justice?
"Prince Regent!" Liu Yan, the Minister of Justice who came to report, said hurriedly: "This matter..."
Ye Linghan didn't even look at him, and said coldly: "I will make my own judgment!" After that, he walked past Liu Yan and was the first to leave the reception room.
Looking at Ye Linghan's tall and handsome back, Su Xing suddenly came back to his senses. He ignored the contemptuous looks of others and followed him like a lackey.
When the coroner Chen Lin saw Ye Linghan coming in, he knelt down hurriedly and saluted: "Greetings, Regent..."
"Have you found the cause of death?" Ye Linghan asked coldly.
Chen Lin shuddered, and replied in shame and fear: "My Lord Regent, not yet..."
Ye Linghan had expected this result, and his expression did not change.
He turned around and looked at Su Xing who was not far behind him, raised his chin and said, "Come here."
Su Xing blinked, then reacted and ran over quickly.
"Look." Ye Linghan pointed to the simple wooden bed behind Chen Lin with his eyes.
"Yes!" Su Xing replied respectfully and walked towards the wooden bed.
In fact, he noticed it when he entered the room just now. Although it is not appropriate to say this, the moment he saw the corpse on the wooden bed, he was like a fish that had been ashore for a long time and finally returned to the water. His blood instantly boiled and his palms itched.
Ye Linghan saw the excitement in Su Xing's eyes again, and it was even more obvious than before.
Could it be that Su Xing really knew how to perform an autopsy? Was the excitement just due to interest in the corpse and not related to the case?
Chen Lin looked at the young man walking towards him in confusion, his expression becoming more and more confused. Who is this person? Why are you here?
Judging from the scene just now, it seems that the Regent brought it...
Just as he was hesitating whether to ask, he saw Su Xing actually starting to work on the corpse!
"What are you doing!" Chen Lin grabbed Su Xing's outstretched right hand and shouted, "This is a corpse, don't move it!"
Su Xing hadn't performed an autopsy for a long time. He was about to finish the job but was interrupted. He felt very unhappy and said in a somewhat aggressive tone: "How can we perform an autopsy if we don't move?"
"Autopsy?" Chen Lin's eyes widened. After looking Su Xing up and down, he asked disdainfully, "Can you perform an autopsy?"
No matter how he looked at it, he didn't think that Su Xing could perform an autopsy. His face was as white as if it was powdered, and he looked so delicate. At first glance, he was a spoiled young man. How dare he say he could perform an autopsy?
Su Xing was anxious to perform an autopsy and didn't want to argue with Chen Lin, so he turned to look at Ye Linghan and said, "Regent, I have to examine the body to find out the cause of death."
Before Ye Linghan could say anything, Chen Lin shouted angrily: "Investigate the cause of death? Who do you think you are? How dare you say such outrageous things!"
Even if this young man could perform an autopsy, he was just a novice at best and could not compare with him at all.
He is the most experienced coroner in Ye Country, otherwise he would not be working in the Ministry of Justice.
Even he couldn't find out the cause of death, how dare this guy who came out of nowhere speak such big words!
Especially that relaxed tone, as if he could immediately know the cause of death as long as he checked. He really overestimated his own abilities!
Chen Lin's words were really hard to hear. Su Xing, who originally had no intention of arguing, could no longer bear it. Without waiting for Ye Linghan to speak, he turned his gaze back to Chen Lin, his handsome face revealing a strong sense of confidence: "What can I do? You can't check it out, and you don't allow others to interfere?"
You know, investigating a case requires efficiency. The longer the delay, the more difficult it will be to investigate.
Finding out the cause of death is the first and most critical step.
Chen Lin was already feeling extremely ashamed for not finding the cause of death, and now being slapped in the face by Su Xing, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
But he didn't dare to get angry in front of Ye Linghan. He glared at Su Xing fiercely, bent down and said to Ye Linghan: "Your Majesty, the body is the most important evidence, how can we let people touch it casually? If this delays the solving of the case, I really can't afford it."
This statement was instantly recognized by everyone else. They had already thought that the Regent's decision was inappropriate, and now they became even more worried after hearing Chen Lin's words.
Liu Yan, in particular, hurriedly advised: "Prince Regent, Chen the coroner is right. This case is of great importance and cannot be treated lightly!"
