Chapter 7 Sleeping Better Than a Pig
Although the coroner Chen Lin did not believe that Su Xing could find out the cause of death, he was still a little worried and went to the Ministry of Justice at dawn the next day.
Seeing Su Xing sleeping so soundly on the table not far from the corpse, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.
The guard next to him saw Chen Lin coming and immediately stood up to greet him. Before he could say anything, he found that Chen Lin was staring at Su Xing, who was sleeping soundly than a pig.
The guard was stunned and was about to wake up Su Xing, but Chen Lin raised his hand to stop him.
The guard didn't understand, but didn't dare to ask, so he had to take back his hand that was about to pat Su Xing's shoulder and smiled at Chen Lin in a flattering manner.
Chen Lin waved his hand, signaling the guards to leave, then walked to a chair and sat down. With a look of waiting for a good show, he stared at Su Xing, who was smacking his lips as if he was dreaming about something delicious.
The Regent would probably be here soon, so why would he be so kind as to wake Su Xing up?
He wanted to see with his own eyes the scene of Su Xing being unable to explain the cause of death and then being executed by the Regent.
Dare to go against him?
I am really tired of living...
Su Xing did have a beautiful dream. He dreamed that his grandfather made braised pork for him when he was a child, and it tasted so delicious with hot rice.
His parents divorced when he was very young, and they soon started new families, so he has been living with his grandfather ever since.
His grandfather was not in good health, so in order not to worry him, he had been very sensible since he was a child.
But the year I went to college, my grandfather fell ill and passed away.
He didn't want to worry his friends, so he pretended nothing happened, but he still missed his grandfather very much in his heart.
Now I dream about my grandfather, and I can’t bear to wake up.
So when Ye Linghan arrived, he was still sleeping...
Liu Yan was almost scared to death, he thought the Regent would be furious.
But what he didn't expect was that the Regent was surprisingly patient. He stared at Su Xing, who was sleeping in a terrible posture, for a long time, so long that Tianyi and others were stunned.
Just like that, everyone in the room was staring at Su Xing, who showed no signs of waking up, as if they were looking at some new species.
Su Xing, who was sleeping, finally realized something. His body trembled, and then he suddenly opened his eyes as if he had a nightmare!
After being stunned for a moment, he looked up and around.
The moment he looked into Ye Linghan's eyes, his body immediately leaned back as if he had seen a monster, and as a result, he lost his balance and fell backwards, landing on his back.
Ye Linghan frowned, his eyes showing obvious disdain, but still no anger.
Su Xing rolled and crawled to his feet, tugged at his messy clothes in a panic, and bowed to Ye Linghan: "Greetings, Regent."
Damn it, why is he sleeping so deeply?
How long has Ye Linghan been here?
Why didn't anyone wake him up?
Ye Linghan did not respond, but just looked at Su Xing with cold eyes.
Liu Yan, for the sake of his colleague Su Yuan, broke the silence and said, "Mr. Su, the time given to you by the Regent has expired. Have you found out the cause of death?"
Although he asked this, he had no expectations at all.
He guessed that Su Xing must not have found out the cause of death, and he probably couldn't escape death...
Everyone else had the same idea, so their looks at Su Xing were a bit complicated. They felt that Su Xing deserved it for overestimating his abilities, but they also felt it was a bit pitiful that such a young life was about to disappear from this world.
Only Chen Lin didn't feel sorry. Instead, he was so excited that his face turned red.
Su Xing knew very well what these people were thinking, especially Chen Lin, whose mouth corners were about to curl up and could no longer be controlled.
But he looked calm, even the panic he had when he woke up just now was gone.
"Your Highness, Lord Regent." He bowed with both hands and said slowly, "I have already found out the cause of death of the two adults..."
As soon as these words were spoken, a series of exclamations were heard in the autopsy room.
Everyone showed an expression of disbelief...
Found out?
How is that possible!
Ye Linghan still didn't speak, but his bottomless eyes seemed to light up.
Chen Lin's expression changed the most obviously. He opened his mouth and almost shouted.
This is impossible. He carefully asked the guards who followed Su Xing to the scene, and they found nothing special.
This guy must be lying!
"These are the evidences I brought back from the two crime scenes." Su Xing took out the incense burner and snuff bottle he found yesterday from under the table, one in each hand, and held them high so that everyone could see them.
"Mr. Su, are you kidding me about this case?" Chen Lin spoke first because he was anxious: "These two items were used by the two adults during their lifetime. If there were any problems, they would have been in trouble long ago!"
As Chen Lin spoke, he approached Su Xing, his expression anxious and threatening: "Don't make up stories just to escape punishment. If it delays the case, can you bear the responsibility?"
When the others heard what Chen Lin said, they instantly recovered from their shock.
yes!
If there was a problem with these two things, something would have happened long ago and it would not have waited until now.
Thinking of this, the look in their eyes when they looked at Su Xing no longer had any pity in it. They all felt that Su Xing did not deserve to die as he was still talking nonsense even when he was about to die!
Ye Linghan suddenly asked: "What's the problem with these two things?"
His voice was still as cold, but his tone was calm, completely unaffected by the surrounding atmosphere.
Su Xing didn't expect that Ye Linghan's attitude was so different from that of others. He was the only one here who was willing to listen to him.
But he soon felt that he was overthinking. Ye Linghan was a very good person. He would definitely not be as superficial as other people.
"Reporting to the Regent." At this moment, Su Xing's impression of Ye Linghan was not only fear, but also awe: "These two things are poisonous, and the two adults died of poisoning."
These words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, and the coroner's office suddenly exploded.
Chen Lin once again shouted, "Nonsense! We asked Feng, the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital, to personally check these two things. There is absolutely no problem! Master Su, are you trying to say that Feng was wrong? Or did Feng lie?"
If he was a little worried just now that Su Xing had really found out something, he was not worried at all now.
Because it couldn't be poisonous. He was the highly skilled doctor Feng, how could he be wrong!
It was precisely because of this that he dared to be so presumptuous in front of Ye Linghan.
Because he knew that Su Xing was about to get into trouble...
He is indeed an ignorant fellow who even dares to doubt Imperial Doctor Feng!
"Chen the Coroner!" Su Xing was really fed up and didn't want to make a fuss about it, but this annoying guy interrupted him time and time again, which was really disgusting!
"You don't have to rush to throw dirty water on me. If I say it's poisonous, it will naturally prove itself. Why are you so anxious to interrupt me? Who is interfering with the investigation?"
"You..." Chen Lin was furious. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he felt the temperature around him suddenly drop, as if the weather had suddenly changed.
He shuddered, and the words he hadn't said froze in his mouth...
