Seeing this, Fu Jun wiped the tears from his face and said, "Xiaomei, don't be afraid! Your elder brother and sister did this because they couldn't accept your death, so you died in turmoil. Don't blame them. Let's make things clear so that they won't come to hold me back. Just bear with it a little! When you visit your grave during Qingming Festival, ask them to burn more money to apologize for your sins!"
He deliberately raised his voice very high, as if he was speaking to everyone.
These words, like a poisonous snake, reached Xiaomei's family, and they gnashed their teeth in hatred. But for the sake of the greater good, they could only grit their teeth and endure it, watching Fu Jun try to gain sympathy.
Xiaomei's family had seen what he looked like in the Fu family compound before. Now, no matter how much he said, no matter how sincere and heartfelt, he couldn't deceive Xiaomei's family.
Fu Jun! Fu Jun, it would be a shame if you didn't go into acting.
Looking at Fu Jun, who looked like a completely different person, Xiaomei's elder brother muttered to himself.
The hatred he felt for Fu Jun could not be expressed in a few words.
"Okay, don't be sad, just stand aside and don't interfere with our work."
Seeing that he was reluctant to leave, the public security comrades dragged him away.
"Then I'll trouble you, boss. You must be careful not to leave my wife with a mutilated body."
"Okay, don't worry! If an autopsy is really necessary, we will tell you in advance. Just rest aside."
"Okay, that's really too much trouble for you to come all the way here. How about I go home and boil a pot of water for you?" Fu Jun had a grateful expression on his face.
"No, this is what we should do."
Fu Jun took two steps forward, then suddenly turned around and asked, "Really?"
"Really, no need. Just wait here peacefully."
The public security comrade was already a little impatient and pushed him to the side.
They pulled up the cordon and drove the crowd outside the cordon, spread a mat on the ground and set up a simple tent.
The forensic doctors put on masks and gloves, lifted Xiaomei's body out of the coffin, and placed it on the rubber mat in the tent.
One forensic doctor took notes in a notebook, while the other forensic doctor began to perform the autopsy with tools such as knives, pliers, and rulers.
This was the first time these inexperienced villagers had seen such a scene. They stretched their necks, jostled each other, and squeezed to get a better look at what was going on inside. Curious expressions flashed across their faces, and they were all talking among themselves.
"The wound was approximately seven centimeters long and three centimeters deep. It was narrow and thin. The fatal weapon was likely a kitchen knife with a thin but sharp blade. The direct cause of death was a severing of the aorta, leading to excessive bleeding and heart failure."
The forensic doctor carefully gestured at Xiaomei's body while speaking in an orderly manner.
The forensic doctor holding a notebook next to him was taking careful notes.
The leading public security comrade was spinning in place, waiting for the forensic examination results.
Suddenly, he stopped, as if he had thought of something, and waved over another police officer, Xiao Li, "Come here, Xiao Li, come here."
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Li quickly ran over from the blockade line.
"That one, did you see it? That's the deceased's husband. Go and ask him about the incident and who was present. Then call all those people over to record a statement." The leading police officer pointed at Fu Jun and gave Xiao Li instructions.
Xiao Li listened carefully. After the leading police officer finished speaking, he took a pen and paper and began to question Fu Jun.
Fu Jun answered every question from Xiao Li carefully, trying his best to avoid the important issues without lying and completely shirking his responsibility.
After Xiao Li finished taking notes, he looked at the unfamiliar names in the notebook. He looked at the unfamiliar crowd and sighed deeply.
For him, this was another time-consuming task. Not to mention the time required for questioning and verifying, even finding these people was a significant effort. Furthermore, two of them had already returned to the county seat, which was even more tiring.
He pondered for a while and decided to hand the records to his boss so that his boss could come up with a more efficient solution.
"Boss, including the deceased's husband, there were seven witnesses at the time. Kang Shumei and Zhong Sen were the deceased's neighbors. There were also these two, the deceased's father-in-law and mother-in-law. In addition, there were two people named Li Wencai and Li Yushu. According to the deceased's husband, they seemed to be guests of Kang Shumei's family and have now returned to the county town."
The leading police officer looked at the records made by Xiao Li, listened attentively to what Xiao Li said, and nodded in response to Xiao Li from time to time.
After Xiao Li finished, he looked at Xiao Li in confusion. He originally thought that Xiao Li would tell him more information, but it was beyond his expectations.
"This—is gone?"
"That's all, Boss. That's all I have to ask for now."
"Now that you've identified the witness, why don't you go and interview him?"
"Boss, you see, this guy is unfamiliar with the place and has no one to lead the way. It's really difficult. Can you think of a way to get twice the result with half the effort?" Xiao Li said tentatively with a grin.
The leading police officer slapped him on the forehead and said, "You only know how to take advantage of others."
"Boss, I just want to close the case as soon as possible!"
"Okay, let's go find the village chief! Have him use the radio to notify these people to come here."
"Thank you, Boss. I knew our Boss was the smartest and omnipotent."
Xiao Li randomly grabbed someone from the crowd and asked someone to take him to the village chief.
