[Chapter 710: Case solved!]
“What… is this?”
A coroner came forward curiously and wanted to reach out to touch it.
As a result, Song Ci grabbed the other person directly.
“Don’t go over! That’s mercury!”
“Mercury!?”
The coroner’s face changed immediately when he heard it.
“Sir! How could there be mercury in Dan Qingzi’s body!? This thing is poisonous, it can poison people to death…”
When the coroner said this, he suddenly realized something.
He suddenly widened his eyes, looked at Song Ci, then at Wu Feng, and finally at the Taoists.
At this moment, the Taoists were also stunned!
Especially the old Taoist, his face changed at this moment!
His legs had begun to tremble uncontrollably!
Looking at Song Ci again, he stopped other coroners from approaching, but he covered his mouth and nose with a sweat towel and walked up.
“Brave man, in this case, we can conclude that the other party died of mercury poisoning!”
Wu Feng nodded, and then he cut open the other side of Dan Qingzi’s lung.
As expected, there was another clang!
Nearly seven grains of mercury were directly collected from the lungs on the plate!
You know, this thing can gather together. Now it looks like seven grains, but it may become one grain later!
But no matter what, if so much mercury can be found in the lungs, anyone must be dead!
“Sir Song, I don’t need to say more about mercury. You must know it! As for why it is in the lungs of the deceased, there are many ways, such as being in an environment with mercury for a long time. After all, this thing will evaporate, or… someone directly uses injection to let the mercury enter the blood vessels of the deceased…”
“Uh… injection?”
Song Ci frowned slightly, but as the famous forensic doctor, he soon figured it out.
“Brave man, do you mean that this thing might have been artificially injected into Danqingzi’s body?”
Wu Feng laughed.
“Not necessarily, but based on my observations in this Taoist temple, the biggest possibility is that the other party has set up a lot of this volatile mercury in the environment where Danqingzi often stays…”
Song Ci took a deep breath!
His face changed and he turned his head immediately!
“Come on! Search the entire Taoist temple for me, don’t miss a corner! Bring me any suspicious things! In addition, pay attention to your own safety!”
“Yes!”
“Come on! Take care of all these Taoists! Those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot!”
“Yes!”
Suddenly, a group of soldiers and yamen runners were divided into two groups and directly took care of the Taoists!
“You… Song Ci! You can’t do this. Even if you detect something wrong, you can’t prove that it was us who did it!”
“Yes, we don’t know where the mercury is! There are only a few people who can touch the master’s alchemy equipment!”
Song Ci’s brows suddenly relaxed: “Tell me! Who among you can touch Dan Qingzi’s alchemy equipment!”
All of a sudden, many Taoists looked at the old Taoist almost at the same time!
This time, the old Taoist became even more panicked!
“No, it’s not me! Lord Song, you can’t frame me!”
“Humph!”
Song Ci snorted coldly: “Whether it is a false accusation or not, you will know later!”
Immediately, Song Ci stopped talking.
At this time, Wu Feng stood there, smiling slightly.
In fact, he had already found relevant evidence, because in a hidden corner of one of the Taoist’s rooms, there were some unfinished incense sticks!
These incense sticks were actually carefully hollowed out and injected with some mercury!
Wu Feng believed that the people he could find on the other side were definitely not just eating and drinking!
Sure enough!
Soon, a yamen runner came running over.
“Sir Song! Look!”
Song Ci took the other person’s things and took a look. His face suddenly tightened!
“Where did you find it?”
“From the east, the second room.”
“Whose!”
Song Ci asked the Taoists.
The Taoists lowered their heads and dared not speak.
“Speak! Even if you don’t speak, if I find out, you will all be guilty of harboring someone!”
“Sir! Yours belongs to the eldest brother!”
“Yes, the eldest brother’s room!”
“Oh, Lord Song, my senior brother gave me some silver needles a long time ago. I thought he was going to use them to mend clothes, but I didn’t expect that he was going to use them to hollow out incense sticks!”
With one person starting, more people started talking in an instant.
At this moment, countless evidences pointed directly to the old Taoist!
The old Taoist’s face was already pale at this moment!
However, he still insisted stubbornly: “Ridiculous! Even if I find this empty incense stick, what can I do? Can’t I make incense myself? Does making incense by myself violate the law…”
“Humph! Of course, it is not against the law to make incense by yourself, but if you make it yourself, it is only for others to use! And this incense stick also contains mercury, which is easy to be released?”
Wu Feng, who was watching these people investigating the case, was a little anxious and couldn’t help but speak.
Song Ci’s face suddenly changed, and he looked at the old Taoist again!
“You still don’t confess!?”
The old Taoist’s face was pale: “You, you are framing me! What mercury, I don’t know!”
“Humph!”
Wu Feng smiled coldly and took out a half-burned incense stick.
“This was found in the alchemy room. You may think that it is not easy to be discovered if you put this in the alchemy room, but you overlooked one point, that is, you added mercury manually, and the content is different. This one with a high content has gone out before it has time to evaporate. There must be a lot of residue in the second half!”
After saying that, Wu Feng directly asked someone to bring a basin of water, and then threw half of the incense candle into it and stirred it several times!
“Master Song, please look!”
Song Ci looked down, and sure enough, some mercury could be vaguely seen in the basin!
“Come here! Arrest this murderer and send him to the county jail!”
“Song, Master Song! I was wrong, I was wrong…”
At this moment, the old Taoist couldn’t hold back and collapsed completely.
However, no matter how he shouted, no one would listen to him anymore.
At the Taoist temple, with solid evidence, Song Ci’s case was much easier to handle. He gave orders one by one, and the whole process went on in an orderly manner.
And Song Ci also came to Wu Feng with an excited face.
“Brave man…”
“Hey, Master Song, you don’t have to be polite, just call me Wu Feng!”
“Okay, okay, Wu Feng! Brother Wu, you said before that you were here to deliver takeout to me? What is takeout?”
Wu Feng laughed, took out a package from the system warehouse and handed it over.
“Here,
this is it.” “What is this?”
Song Ci took the box with some confusion, opened it, and then, he almost burst into tears on the spot!
He looked at Wu Feng excitedly, then reached out and took out a piece of exquisite pastry from the box, excitedly put it in his mouth, and took a light bite.
“Well… this is… this is the taste of my mother’s hometown, my God, brother Wu, you are amazing, how do you know that I like this osmanthus cake the most?”
