Chapter 75 Under the Table
Ye Linghan had never met anyone who could affect his mood so much, even if it was just because of investigating a case.
His gaze unconsciously moved down from Su Xing's sparkling eyes. His nose was straight and the tip of his nose was slightly upturned, making him look both upright and a little playful.
Below the nose was a pair of moist red lips, which were being gently bitten by white teeth. Seeing this, Ye Linghan suddenly had an impulse to rush over and pry open Su Xing's teeth, and then rescue the poor red lips...
What is he thinking!
Ye Linghan felt as if he was hit on the head with a stick. His head suddenly made a "buzzing" sound, and then all the blood in his body froze.
He hastily looked away, for the first time in his life he was afraid of someone.
At this moment, Su Xing turned around excitedly and shouted to Ye Linghan: "Regent, I have found the cause of death!"
Ye Linghan paused for a moment before he looked up at Su Xing. His cold voice seemed to have changed a little: "Speak."
Everyone else pricked up their ears, and even Ye Lingchen came forward.
Su Xing pointed to Doctor Feng's cut open stomach and said slowly, "The deceased did die of gastric bleeding, but it was not a sudden illness, but the deceased swallowed a sharp object."
As he spoke, he reached into Doctor Feng's stomach and pinched something out: "This is it!"
At first, everyone couldn't see clearly because the thing was covered in blood. They could only see that it was long and thin, but couldn't tell what it was.
After a moment, someone with sharp eyes exclaimed: "Is this the silver needle used for acupuncture?"
When these words were spoken, everyone else's eyes widened in disbelief.
Su Xing nodded and said in a serious tone: "Yes, it is the silver needles. There are still some in the deceased's stomach. There are about ten of them, of different lengths and thicknesses."
Doctor Feng was already old, but I didn’t expect him to die so tragically. I can’t imagine how much pain he was in before he died.
After hearing Su Xing's words, everyone was not only shocked, but also horrified. Some people even covered their mouths immediately, as if they were afraid of being forced to swallow the needles.
Ye Linghan suddenly walked up to Su Xing, first looked at Su Xing's hands stained red with blood, then looked at the silver needle in his hand, and finally looked at Doctor Feng's bloody stomach.
"Any other clues?"
Su Xing lowered his eyes and whispered: "That's all for now..."
He still didn't dare to look Ye Linghan in the eye, and even felt nervous when standing close to him.
Ye Linghan stared at Su Xing's long eyelashes that fell because of his lowered eyes for a moment, and said, "Clean up and come out to see me."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Su Xing was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at Ye Linghan's back, only to see Ye Lingchen pinching his nose and blinking at him wildly.
Su Xing was almost amused by Ye Lingchen's funny look. Only then did he realize what Ye Linghan had just said.
He didn't dare to delay and packed up immediately.
About an incense stick of time later, Su Xing trotted towards the door.
Even though he was packing up very quickly, he was still afraid that Ye Linghan, whose patience was almost zero, would get impatient.
Fortunately, when he arrived, Ye Linghan didn't get angry. He just looked at him and said, "Get in the car."
After saying that, he got on the carriage first.
Su Xing was a little confused. Didn’t you have something to tell him? But wait for him to get in the car?
Is Ye Linghan so considerate?
So where are they going in the car? Are we going back to the Regent's Palace?
Su Xing had a lot of questions, but he didn't dare to ask any. He could only follow Ye Linghan obediently into the car.
Ye Lingchen was not there, and there were only the two of them in the car.
The moment he sat down, Su Xing felt his heart beating faster, and the fear that he had temporarily forgotten because of the autopsy could not wait to emerge.
He tensed his body, slowed his breathing, and tried not to make any noise.
He was afraid that Ye Linghan would bring up the last incident. He didn’t know how to respond. What if he angered Ye Linghan again...
Fortunately, Ye Linghan closed his eyes quickly, and it was unclear whether he was thinking or resting.
Su Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the carriage stopped.
Ye Linghan opened his eyes and didn't look at Su Xing, but got out of the car directly.
Su Xing didn't know where was outside the car, so he followed with trepidation.
After seeing the scene in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned!
Are they back to the Imperial Hospital?
Su Xing looked at Ye Linghan in confusion, but Ye Linghan had already walked in.
"It has been confirmed that this is the crime scene. Take a close look to see if there are any other clues." Ye Linghan suddenly turned around and gave a cold order.
Su Xing was startled and lowered his head hurriedly: "Yes."
It turned out that Ye Linghan wanted to bring him back to see the scene, but wouldn’t it be enough for him to come by himself? Why come with him?
And she waited for him for so long...Su Xing couldn't help but imagine, is Ye Linghan...
The fantasy was decisively extinguished by him before it even began. He was really being self-indulgent. Ye Linghan was just anxious to investigate the case and wanted to know the progress first.
Su Xing pushed all the unnecessary thoughts out of his mind, then calmed down and started searching.
Once Su Xing entered the working state, he could neither hear nor see people and things that were not related to the case, so he did not know that Ye Linghan's eyes were fixed on him from beginning to end, including the changes in his eyes...
"Regent! Please come here!" Su Xing's voice came from under the table where Doctor Feng was lying before his death.
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xing popped his head out from under the table, because he suddenly realized that it was not appropriate to let Ye Linghan crawl under the table...
But Ye Linghan had already walked over, lowered his head and looked down at Su Xing, and asked: "What's wrong?"
Su Xing looked up at Ye Linghan and felt that Ye Linghan was even more oppressive. He began to stutter: "There are words under the table. They are written in blood. The handwriting is rather sloppy. It is possible that they were left by Doctor Feng before he died."
There was indeed blood on Doctor Feng's hands, and Su Xing initially thought that it was stained when he vomited blood.
Now it seems that it is very likely that Doctor Feng wanted to leave clues for the investigators.
"What word?"
"It seems...it's the word Xia..." Su Xing answered carefully.
The handwriting was too sloppy and it was dark under the table, so he couldn't be completely sure.
Ye Linghan frowned when he heard this, then suddenly bent down.
Su Xing was startled and stepped back quickly, almost hitting his head.
But when he saw Ye Linghan's next move, he would rather hit his head, or even faint...
Ye Linghan actually squatted down like Su Xing, and then crawled under the table which was not very spacious to begin with.
Su Xing was so scared that he almost ran away from home. This was too close, so close that he could smell the scent of Ye Linghan...
He held his breath instantly and tried his best to move to the side, trying to stay as far away from Ye Linghan as possible.
The light under the table was indeed not very good, especially when two people were squeezed there, the light became even darker.
Ye Linghan didn't find the word that Su Xing said, so he turned around and prepared to ask Su Xing.
