"Your Majesty, I have made some new discoveries."

The old coroner had grey hair and an aged face with deep wrinkles. When he spoke, the wrinkles appeared all over his face, but this did not affect the brightness in his eyes.

"The deceased died more than eight hours ago, probably between the hours of Yin and Mao. There were body spots on the hands and feet of the body, the blood was black, the lips were open and the teeth were exposed, the tongue was sticking out, the eyeballs were white, there was blood on the brain, and the bruises on the neck were blue-gray, which were formed after death. The initial diagnosis is that the death was caused by a blow to the brain, followed by secondary injuries."

The secondary injury mentioned here refers to the fact that the deceased was hanged on a tree afterwards.

The old coroner's analysis was more detailed than that of the coroner brought by Fang Jinyu, and his description was without any emotion. This is the difference between a coroner who has been in the job for a long time and a newcomer.

So, Mr. Fang's coroner quit because their diagnoses did not match.

One person thought the deceased died last night, while the other thought he died early this morning.

"The temperature in this forest is extremely low. The surrounding environment will inhibit the formation of body spots. Judging from the stiffness of the corpse, the time of death should be more than ten hours."

Mr. Fang's coroner was not convinced, because he really could not stand the old coroner's smug and provocative look, and he insisted on his own opinion.

After a person dies, the heat production stops and the body heat will dissipate into the surrounding environment until it reaches the same temperature as the surrounding environment. Coroners usually determine the time of death based on the temperature of the corpse, but the temperature in this forest is extremely low, which will naturally affect the heat dissipation of the corpse.

Therefore, it can mislead their judgment. When the coroner determines the time of death of a corpse, he or she must naturally take this natural factor into consideration.

Mr. Fang's coroner conducted the analysis based on the formation of body spots and the degree of rigidity of the body.

At this moment, the corpse was in a highly rigid state, which should have occurred within ten hours after the death of the corpse. Lord Fang's coroner was certain of this because that was what his master taught him.

The old coroner took a look at this young and energetic coroner and narrowed his old eyes. He thought that what he learned from books was good, but he lacked practice.

Those who work as coroners would never dare to jump to conclusions without having examined eighty, ninety, or even hundreds of corpses.

"You only know that the temperature in the forest will affect the corpse, but you don't know that the drugs the corpse took before death will also affect the corpse."

"What?"

The young coroner was really dumbfounded at this time. He was the one who first found out from the corpse that the deceased had taken drugs before death. How could he have forgotten that the drugs would also affect their judgment of the time of death of the corpse?

"Well, that's a possibility."

The young coroner's face turned pale, and he felt ashamed and anxious for a moment. He lowered his head in shame, but he refused to admit defeat.

"However, how can you be sure that the deceased was beaten to death and then suffered secondary injuries? After beating the deceased to death, why did those traffickers go to the trouble of hanging him from a tree? So I think the deceased was beaten and hung from the tree at the same time."

The two coroners now had different opinions, which made the investigators present very distressed. Determining the cause of death was the first step in their investigation, but now there was a disagreement on this first step.

Although they all have their own judgment in their hearts, they are not coroners after all. In this era, not everyone dares to contact a coroner, let alone someone who would take the initiative to try to do the work of a coroner.

"Look for yourself. There is a dark grey mark on the neck of the corpse. If the deceased was strangled to death, the mark should be purple-red. And look at the brain of the corpse. There is so much blood. In this case, how can a normal person survive?"

The old coroner tried to use his experience to convince the young coroner, but the young coroner had more knowledge from books.

"I saw it very clearly. Tell me, who would stick out their tongue after being beaten to death? This person must have been strangled. Also, didn't you say that the deceased had taken some kind of drugs before his death? Since these drugs can affect the rigidity and decay of corpses, they may have some specific effects on the corpse. Maybe these blue-black bruises on the deceased's body were caused by the drugs."

The old coroner had just used words to refute the young coroner, but now the young coroner used them again to defeat the old coroner.

At this time, the old coroner was really annoyed. He pointed at the young coroner and said, "What do you know? It's nonsense.

“

"Who is talking nonsense? We need evidence when we examine the body. You can't just take advantage of your age."

Damn, you dare to say I’m old.

The old coroner couldn't bear it anymore, he flipped his hands left and right, pulled up his sleeves, and rubbed his hands ready to fight. Didn't this little bastard say that he was old? Then he would prove it with his strength to see whether he was old or not.

In this day and age, being able to do the job of a coroner not only requires courage and carefulness, but also sufficient physical strength and endurance. Do you think anyone can face a corpse?

Seeing that the two coroners were about to fight, Long Moxun shouted angrily: "Back off."

The two men retreated in embarrassment. At this time, the people from the Anguo Mansion had not arrived yet. Logically, as long as Long Moxun confirmed the identity of the deceased, there would be nothing for him to do. However, he suddenly became interested in this case.

It's not just because of the deceased's special identity, but also because there are doubts about the cause of death.

"Luoxue Ning, go and take a look."

Luo Xue Ning was originally standing aside, quietly watching the two coroners quarreling, and actually thought it was quite interesting. Suddenly, when she heard Long Mo Xun asking her to do the examination herself, Luo Xue Ning's face suddenly darkened.

What had she done to offend anyone? She was just standing quietly by the side, trying her best to minimize her presence, but she was still called up by Long Moxun to examine the corpse.

Where does such good luck come from? It's because bad people are targeting you.

Damn, even though Luo Xue Ning was well-educated, she was still gritting her teeth in anger at this moment.

I'm a criminal psychologist. Who told you to use me as a forensic scientist?

Luo Xuening glared, not afraid of Long Moxun's pressure at all, and muttered: "Whoever wants to go can go, anyway, this case has nothing to do with me."

“Investment banking.”

Long Moxunsi didn't think Luo Xuening was being rude at all. He bent his lips, leaned closer to Luo Xuening, and uttered two words in a voice that only the two of them could hear, staring at Luo Xuening with his quiet eyes. He didn't mean to force her, but he forced Luo Xuening to change her words.

"Okay, I'll go."

Luo Xuening snorted, waved her sleeves, and walked straight towards the corpse, taking away all her anger.

A large group of people were left stunned. What was going on? Was this a show of affection or a show of threat?

Do you have to be so brazen, Your Majesty? We are here to see the corpse. Who wants to see you torturing single people?

Luo Xue Ning was very angry at this time, so she naturally didn't notice the expectation in Long Mo Xun's eyes. With Luo Xue Ning's talent, he naturally couldn't really use her as a coroner, but he felt that somehow.

If Luo Xue Ning were allowed to examine the corpse, there would be more new discoveries. Long Mo Xun believed that Luo Xue Ning was born to be the kind of person who was suitable for dealing with cases and corpses.

Although Luo Xuening would be very angry if she knew he had this idea, it is the fact.

There was a glimmer of success in Long Moxun's eyes, and it was this glimmer that made Fang Jinyu frown beside him.

He had always thought that Long Moxun only used Luo Xuening as his subordinate to bully and plot against her, but now it seems that this is not the case.

But Fang Jinyu said nothing, his eyes fixed on Luo Xuening. They spontaneously formed a barrier outside the woods, preventing anyone from approaching.

Two extremely handsome men, one strong and domineering, the other gentle and reserved, just like this, one on the left and one on the right, protecting the figure in the woods.
