"Two cars are not enough, we need at least three!"
When the county magistrate was preparing to set off with his men, Qin Yao kindly gave instructions in the lobby.
The county magistrate took a deep breath and ordered his men to find another carriage.
Although he hasn't arrived at the scene yet, he is already mentally prepared to face the blood.
Song Zhang watched the county magistrate and his men walk away, then returned to the lobby and led Qin Yao, who was waiting for dinner, and Yin Le, who was nervous, to the small office hall in the backyard of the county government office.
Inside the hall, on the small table for handling cases, the documents and files were pushed aside, and three simple dishes and two bowls of rice were placed on top, with just a few chopsticks being used.
Song Zhang asked someone to bring another bucket of rice, and asked Qin Yao and the other two to sit down and eat something to fill their stomachs first.
Qin Yao reminded: "My old Huang is still outside."
Song Zhang motioned her to rest assured, "I have just asked someone to take it to the veterinarian for treatment."
Only then did Qin Yao feel at ease to pick up the rice bucket and eat.
Halfway through the meal, she found Yin Le staring at her in amazement while holding the bowl, so Qin Yao reminded her: "Eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
"Oh, oh!" Yin Le finally came back to his senses from the shock of Qin Yao's huge appetite, and buried his head in eating.
Song Zhang had lost his appetite. He suppressed his anxiety and sat aside, waiting for the two to finish their meal. He immediately asked:
"Madam Qin, you haven't introduced the name of the girl you brought back yet."
Qin Yao took a sip of tea to clear her throat and replied, "She is the Yue Niang you are looking for. Since this witness is so important to you, I might as well bring her back to you."
"I didn't expect your opponent to be so quick. If I hadn't set out as soon as I received the news yesterday, Yue Niang would have been gone."
Qin Yao's tone was calm, as if killing fifteen professional killers was as common to her as eating and drinking. Everything would be fine after killing them, and she would not waste any more energy on those dead people.
Song Zhang didn't see the scene of her killing fifteen people with his own eyes, but seeing Qin Yao's calm reaction at this moment, his assessment of her combat power raised a lot.
"Oh, right!" Qin Yao suddenly thought of the drug that the killer had spread, and said to Song Zhang, "Sir, can you ask a doctor to come and take a look at us? The bandits had spread something when we were fighting just now, and I'm afraid it's poisonous."
Song Zhang nodded. Yue Niang had already come to his territory. The biggest stone in his heart fell to the ground. He hurriedly called for someone to call the coroner.
"Coroner?" Qin Yao asked suspiciously, "Isn't that for treating dead people?"
Song Zhang smiled confidently, "We are all one family. Old Wang can be seen by both the dead and the living."
Qin Yao said "oh" slowly, hoping it was reliable.
The coroner was performing an autopsy in the water room of the county government office. Today, the county magistrate had just taken people to the mass grave and dug up several female corpses. They were related to Concubine Pan. As a result, the pressure on the county magistrate increased every quarter of an hour he was out of work. He had not rested all day.
However, Coroner Wang still arrived very quickly. Because he arrived so quickly, he did not even change his apron sleeves. As soon as he came in, he brought a disgusting stench with him.
Song Zhang couldn't stand it anymore and turned his head away.
Yin Le saw the hand stretched out by the coroner. There was a little red and white on the fingers. It looked like flesh, but not quite. He felt his scalp tingling.
But seeing that Qin Yao was still sitting there drinking tea as if nothing had happened, as if she hadn't noticed anything, he felt that he couldn't embarrass his benefactor, so he gritted his teeth, lifted up his sleeves, and put his wrist in the coroner's hand.
"Girl, your pulse is beating a little fast."
Yin Le asked nervously: "Am I poisoned?"
"Don't be nervous, girl. Breathe slowly. Don't be afraid. I've washed my hands."
Coroner Wang smiled caringly, and the pulse of his hand beat even faster, like a stain of water that had accidentally fallen into a frying pan, crackling and making a mess.
Coroner Wang smiled helplessly and put down Yin Le's hand. "The pulse is vigorous and strong, there should be nothing wrong."
Turning to Qin Yao, "Madam Qin, please give me your hand."
Qin Yao nodded and held out her hand.
This was the first time someone had taken her pulse since she traveled through time. Qin Yao felt curious and wondered if Lao Wang could find out something she herself didn't know.
Coroner Wang put his hand on his back and wiped it before taking her hand.
As soon as he felt Qin Yao's pulse, his eyes widened instantly, he looked up at Qin Yao, and asked in shock: "Born without a pulse?"
"What do you mean?" Qin Yao asked puzzled.
Song Zhang also looked over curiously. What does it mean to be born without a pulse? How can a living person be without a pulse?
Could it be related to her great powers?
".Wait." Coroner Wang was startled. He neither answered Qin Yao's question nor said what it meant to be born without a pulse. He closed his eyes, held his breath, and focused all his attention on his fingertips.
There seems to be some sliding.
There is indeed a pulse!
But because it is too fast and smooth, and beats at an extraordinary speed, it makes people feel like it has no pulse.
Coroner Wang breathed a sigh of relief. He almost thought he had felt the pulse of a dead man.
In Qin Yao's eyes, the coroner was startled, nervous at one moment and relaxed at another, and it was impossible to make any sense.
If she hadn't been strong inside, she would have thought she had some terminal illness.
"Mr. Wang, what did you find out?" Qin Yao asked with a frown.
The coroner was amazed for several seconds before explaining to Qin Yao: "Madam Qin, your pulse is very strange. This is the first time I have felt such a pulse in my life. It was beating very fast, so fast that I could hardly feel whether it was beating or not. I thought you had no pulse."
Qin Yao raised her eyebrows and touched her wrist, but felt nothing. It was easy for people to mistakenly think that she had no pulse.
So let's say
"Wouldn't it be easy if I pretended to be dead?" Qin Yao asked excitedly.
The coroner made a hissing sound and said, "What Madam Qin said is not impossible."
"But the human body has many pulse points. Your neck pulse is clearly visible. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to pretend to be dead."
Qin Yao felt quite regretful, "I thought I could have one more special skill."
With her interruption, the topic of her strange pulse was diverted.
Coroner Wang still had work to do, so he picked up the remaining bowl of food on the table and ate while leaving.
Song Zhang's eyes dimmed slightly. It turned out that the strange man also had strange veins.
"Sir." Qin Yao looked over and smiled at him.
Song Zhang suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and felt panicky as if she had seen through all his thoughts.
I guess she found herself interested in her pulse.
"Can I talk to you for a moment?" Qin Yao raised her hand and pointed to the small house next to her, then gave Yin Le a look that told him to wait there.
Song Zhang took a deep breath, suppressed the thoughts in his mind, led her into the small room next door where he usually took a nap, and closed the door.
"All the runners and officials in the yamen have been taken away by the county magistrate. The rest are my people."
Knowing that Qin Yao was wary of people in the yamen, Song Zhang explained.
Qin Yao listened quietly for a moment, making sure that there were no suspicious people nearby, then she took out the red mandarin duck bellyband hidden in the secret pocket of her inner shirt.
"Here you go." Qin Yao looked up as she handed over the bellyband.
No, County Magistrate Song, are you serious about taking two big steps back?
