Su Ruojin took the scalpel from Yan Luo and quickly began to operate.
An autopsy is much simpler than a craniotomy. Although caution is still required, there is not much to worry about. She quickly found what she was looking for in the deceased's brain.
Just as I expected!
She had already guessed this situation when she first heard about the deceased's condition.
Su Ruojin cut off a piece of the brain tumor and placed it aside, then carefully sutured the deceased's skull back together.
Fortunately, people in this dynasty, regardless of gender, all wore their long hair tied up, which made the wound less noticeable.
"alright."
After Su Ruojin finished speaking, the white cloth was removed.
Li An hurried over to take a look and found that his father's body and face were the same as before, only his hair had changed slightly. It was hard to tell the difference unless you looked closely. He could hardly believe it.
"Dr. Su, is the test done?"
Su Ruojin took the handkerchief handed to her by Yanluo and wiped her hands. "The examination is complete. The cause of death was phlegm."
In this dynasty, there was no such thing as a brain tumor, so she could only use saliva as a substitute.
Saliva?
Li An's face was somewhat pale.
If my father had phlegm, wouldn't that mean his death had nothing to do with He'antang?
Officer Liu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Su Ruojin's words.
As long as it has nothing to do with Doctor Zhou, it will be easier for him to get things done.
But then, Su Ruojin had the coroner carry the grayish-white tumor she had cut off to Constable Liu.
Liu, the constable, felt nauseous at the sight of the object, but dared not show it in front of the princess.
"Princess, what is this?"
"This is a tumor removed from the deceased's brain, which proves that Dr. Zhou of Andang was guilty of misdiagnosing and harming people."
What!
Officer Liu's eyes widened instantly, and the nausea he had felt earlier vanished in an instant.
"You're talking nonsense!" At this moment, Zhou Lei stormed out of He'an Hall.
He never made house calls; he just didn't want to get entangled with these patients' families.
When he heard that Su Ruojin had arrived and was going to perform an autopsy on the deceased, he became restless and secretly came out to hide behind the scenes to observe the situation. Now that he heard Su Ruojin accusing him of misdiagnosing and harming someone, he could no longer sit still.
If this charge is proven, his lifelong reputation will be ruined.
Su Ruojin looked at Zhou Lei, who rushed out, with a half-smile. "Dr. Zhou, weren't you on a house call? Why are you coming out of He'an Hall?"
When Zhou Lei was asked this question, he realized that he had given himself away and looked a little embarrassed. "I, I just came back from seeing patients. I came back to He'an Hall through the back door."
"Oh~~" Su Ruojin just said "oh" and didn't say anything more.
But that "oh" made Zhou Lei feel his face burning.
“Even though you are a princess, you don’t have to falsely accuse people out of thin air. What makes you think I misdiagnosed someone and harmed them?” Zhou Lei asked, sticking out his neck.
"Why should I?" Su Ruojin's face darkened, and the cold glint in her eyes made Zhou Lei involuntarily shrink back.
He then realized that he had shown his intimidation in front of this young girl, so he quickly straightened his neck and stared at Su Ruojin with a righteous and awe-inspiring look.
