Xie Xiao took two steps forward and called out to the group of people who were about to move forward, "Wait!"
The sound of the suona was stopped by this shout.
Huang Mazi yelled, "Why did you stop? It's unlucky! Keep going!"
The one playing the suona continued playing.
Huang Yi quickly grabbed Xie Xiao and said, "Hey, brother Xie, the dead are the greatest, what are you going to do?"
Xie Xiao stared at the person covered by the white cloth on the stretcher, "I want to see."
"That won't work. It's too late." Huang Mazi glanced at his phone with a grim expression, waved to the stretcher bearers, and said, "Hurry up!"
The two men carrying the stretcher actually quickened their pace.
This made Xie Xiao feel that something was wrong, so he shook off the village chief's hand and chased after him.
The village chief wanted to hold him back, but Bai Ruanruan pushed him back.
The skinny and weak-looking little girl actually has great strength in her hands.
Xie Xiao held down the stretcher with one hand.
Huang Mazi cursed, "What are you doing? My mother has to go to the ancestral hall, and it's almost time."
He was really anxious, and his tone became impatient.
He reached out to push Xie Xiao's hand away.
Xie Xiao insisted, "I'll just take a look!"
Huang Yi's face also looked unhappy, "This is inappropriate!"
Several other villagers also said, "What are you doing? You are hitting the dead!"
"There will be retribution!"
Sister Zhao and Sister Chen hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over awkwardly, "Hey, hey, hey, this Xiao Xie is a policeman, he is more cautious in what he does!"
In fact, they also found it strange. How could an old lady who looked healthy yesterday suddenly die of an acute illness?
Sister Chen said, "It won't hurt to take a look at you."
Xie Xiao looked at the person covered with white cloth on the stretcher and reached out to lift it up.
Huang Mazi wanted to stop him, but Huang Yi said, "Let them see! Don't waste time."
Xie Xiao noticed that they seemed to be very concerned about time and kept wasting time repeatedly.
But he still lifted the white cloth decisively.
A pale-faced lady was lying on the stretcher.
His eyes were closed and his chest was still.
Xie Xiao put his hand under her nose. She wasn't breathing. He felt for her pulse, but it wasn't beating either.
But Xie Xiao still found something wrong, the body was still warm.
They just said that he passed away last night due to an acute illness.
If that were the case, the corpse should have been warm even if not completely stiff after such a night.
Xie Xiao looked at Huang Mazi, "How did Auntie die?"
"I told you it's an acute illness!" Huang Mazi looked at the old lady on the stretcher, his eyes were red and his body was shaking slightly.
The faces of the two big men carrying the stretcher turned pale uncontrollably.
Xie Xiao noticed all of this.
At this time, Huang Yi said, "Okay, you guys should hurry to the ancestral hall, you have been delayed."
Huang Mazi pulled Xie Xiao's hand away and quickly covered him with a white cloth.
Then the suona sounded again, and they continued to move forward at a much faster speed.
Xie Xiao noticed that many villagers were looking at him from behind the yard.
There was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, but it was not very friendly.
Why?
Is it because you just stopped the corpse?
Xie Xiao also noticed that someone was holding a machete in his hand.
Xie Xiao lowered his eyes, hiding the doubts in his heart.
But he can't do anything now, Sister Zhao and Sister Chen are still there.
At least he and Bai Ruanruan can't do anything now.
He turned around and went back to the yard to apologize to Huang Yi, "I'm sorry, Village Chief Huang, this is just a matter of professional habit."
Huang Yi glanced at him, his initial smile gone, and he just said, "The science conference can begin now."
He wanted them to leave quickly.
Xie Xiao understood what he meant.
Sister Zhao and Sister Chen looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed.
Only Bai Ruanruan was still staring at the direction where the group of people disappeared.
Something is not right.
No matter what the reason was, it was inappropriate for Xie Xiao to stop the funeral procession.
After all, in some places, people who do this may be beaten to death.
Xie Xiao still felt very strange, but he had no objection when Huang Yi said he wanted to start a popular science lecture.
Sister Zhao and Sister Chen said awkwardly, "Okay, let's get ready here."
Huang Yi hummed, his face a little gloomy, and looked up at the clear sky, "I'll go notify them."
Then he walked out of the yard.
At this time, Xie Xiao took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Yu Zhou, asking him to bring some people over in the afternoon. He felt that something was wrong with this village, and it would be best to bring back a forensic doctor as well.
There must be something wrong with the warm corpse just now. When asked what the illness was, they just vaguely said it was an acute illness.
If he hadn't noticed that many eyes were cast on him with coldness.
Xie Xiao would definitely not let them go like this.
However, the village chief said that the body would stay in the ancestral hall for a few days, and when someone comes, we will bring the forensic doctor to take a look.
At this time, Xie Xiao still thought it was an ordinary murder case.
I didn't know the seriousness of the matter.
When the village chief went to inform the villagers, his wife had also returned.
When he came back, his face wasn't very good. He forced a smile at the others and asked, "Have you finished eating? I'll clean up then..."
Sister Zhao and the others hurried forward to help, but were stopped by her.
Xie Xiao asked, "Is Huang Er okay?"
The village head's wife glanced at him with a strange look in her eyes. Before Xie Xiao could take a closer look, she looked at Bai Ruanruan who was standing beside her. "Nothing. He's probably gone crazy again. He was like this before. Don't mind it. He's not targeting this little white girl."
