Inside the forensic room, Ke Ying had been carefully laid out by the forensic doctor and covered with a white sheet. Because only her bones were found, many parts of her body were dented, but her outline was clearly visible.
Ke Ying's parents, perhaps having shed all their tears in the past two years, were remarkably calm.
Lifting the white sheet, the pale skeleton lay quietly. The repair marks at the severed limbs were clearly visible, and there was a large wound on the forehead with radial fractures.
It's easy to imagine what kind of suffering they endured back then.
They trembled, too afraid to touch her. In their memory, she was still that bright and cheerful daughter. They never imagined that when they saw her again, she would be nothing but a pile of bones.
"Yingying, your dad and mom are here to pick you up. Don't be scared." Ke's mother's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing her daughter.
Their faces were calm, and they tried their best not to think about the pain their daughter had suffered.
Jiang Si had become quite familiar with the Pinghu branch of the Public Security Bureau, and was taken directly to the forensic room.
Outside the door stood forensic doctor Deng. Inside, Ke Ying's parents were identifying the body. Upon seeing Jiang Si, they sighed, "It's pitiful that the elderly are sending off their children."
Even though Dr. Deng may have seen more corpses in a year than people, he still feels somewhat saddened every time he sees such a scene.
Jiang Si and Han Yunluo both looked at Ke Ying, who was struggling to crawl beside Ke's parents, with a sense of pity.
After Ke Ying's death, Xiang Zhiyi gouged out Ke Ying's eyes, cut off her tongue and sewed her mouth shut, so that Ke Ying would be unable to speak after death and could not express her many grievances; and unable to see and find the culprit.
In Jiang Si and Han Yunluo's eyes, Ke Ying was covered in blood, with a bloody hole in her eye, bloodstains at the corner of her mouth, and rough stitches on her lips.
Even with Deng's meticulous stitching, the body was still unable to walk properly and could only crawl with difficulty.
The original Ke Ying was submerged in a bottomless, dark abyss, and only when her body was brought back to light did she awaken.
Perhaps sensing her parents' presence, Ke Ying reappeared.
She could only barely crawl to his side, unable even to give him a gentle hug. Blood tears streamed from her bloodshot eyes. She wanted to cry but couldn't open her mouth; only a mournful groan escaped her throat.
The lights overhead suddenly flickered a few times.
The light in the forensic room was always like this. The electrician came to check it many times but couldn't find the problem. Over time, forensic doctor Deng stopped paying attention to it.
But when the light flashes, he'll whisper, "I'll do you a favor and I'll definitely help you find the real culprit."
Whether it's some kind of mystical phenomenon or not, the lights stopped flashing after he finished speaking, and forensic doctor Deng was able to focus on his work.
At first, I was a little apprehensive, but then I thought that this was a great and immeasurable act of merit, and my ambition soared.
But this time was a little different. He unconsciously picked at his ears and muttered, "Why does it feel like I have a bit of tinnitus?"
Ke's mother suddenly looked around and tugged at her husband's sleeve, "Did you hear anything?"
Mr. Ke looked around blankly.
After a long pause, he murmured, "Is it Yingying who's back?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Ke's mother could no longer hold back and burst into tears: "It must be Yingying who has come back to see us."
She gently touched the skeleton. "Yingying, Mommy is here. Don't be afraid. We'll take you home soon."
The wronged souls wept and wailed, and all the ghosts grieved.
The wandering spirits nearby heard this mournful cry and echoed it.
The sound frequency is very low, and apart from certain animals, most people cannot hear it. However, when too many of them come together, some more sensitive people will be able to sense it, or even their closest relatives can sense it.
When Director Guo arrived at the forensic lab looking for someone, he was about to greet them when he couldn't help but frown.
What's that sound?
When Jiang Si saw that the leader had arrived, she became more agreeable.
"May I go in and see Ke Ying?"
Director Guo and forensic doctor Deng exchanged a glance, deeply sensing that this was definitely not a simple matter.
What's inside?
Jiang Si smiled slightly: "A charlatan like me has to play a role."
The two of them swallowed hard.
Director Guo gestured for them to leave, and then he and forensic doctor Deng left together.
In principle, they do not support feudal superstition, but they possess a skill that everyone has: turning a blind eye.
Hearing the door open, Ke Ying's parents both looked over.
"Who are you?"
Before Jiang Si could speak, they asked, "Are you... Master Jiang?"
When Ke Ying's parents were paying attention to information online, they saw many people thanking Jiang Si for performing a religious ceremony for their daughter.
They contacted these parents privately, and they all said that Master Jiang was a true master. At that time, they did not believe that their daughter had passed away. They never expected that things would turn out so unexpectedly.
Jiang Si hadn't expected to become so famous.
"Hello, I'm Jiang Si." She paused, glanced in Ke Ying's direction, and said, "I'm here to take Ke Ying home."
Now that we know who she is, things are much easier; there's no need for so much explanation.
Ke Ying already possesses the power of a vengeful ghost. If she is not stopped, she will commit an unforgivable crime. At that time, Heaven will not care about past events and twists and turns; a single thunderbolt will wipe her out.
They already suffered so much in life, there's no need for them to suffer even more after death.
Han Yunluo, a Buddhist with profound knowledge, sat on the ground to perform a ritual for Ke Ying, reciting the "Great Vow Earth Sutra." The words of the sutra floated in the air as she spoke them.
Not only did Ke Ying stop weeping, but the wandering ghosts nearby also seemed to have been enlightened by Buddhist teachings and quieted down.
Ke Ying's parents dared not utter a sound, secretly wiping away their tears.
Jiang Si said, "I need to borrow a drop of your blood now."
Ke Ying was brutally dismembered, and almost all the blood in her body was drained. Her soul was scattered and could not be solidified. It needed the blood of her closest relatives to solidify it, otherwise it would be blown away to various corners of the underworld before she even crossed the Yellow Springs Road.
