"I've already called my master!" Outside the autopsy room, Zhang Peipei, who was wearing a white coat, said to Zhao Yu and Miao Ying anxiously. "Even if he can't come, we must send a more experienced forensic doctor! Such a body is not something I can handle.
"She defies the knowledge I have learned before. I have never seen anything like this before. It's … incredible!"
"Don't be so reserved, okay?" Seeing Zhang Peipei, who had always been calm, become so anxious and anxious, Zhao Yu was naturally very curious and asked, "What happened?"
"Leader Zhao, I have ordered that the rest of the bodies be stopped! They can't be moved anymore! " Zhang Peipei took off her mask and said in a panic, "I have also asked them to put back the bodies that have been put into the body bags! Everything can only be maintained as it is. We have to wait for my master and the others to come … "
"Ah? It's that serious? "
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying looked at each other and suddenly felt that this was a serious matter. If it was not an emergency, Zhang Peipei had no right to stop the autopsy.
"Peipei, don't panic. Tell us first," Miao Ying said. "Is there something wrong with the bodies?"
"Yes!" Zhang Peipei calmed down a little and said, "The bodies, from the skin to the internal organs, are all very well preserved! There is no livor mortis, no rigor mortis. Everything seems to have just happened! "
"Ah? How could this be? " Zhao Yu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. "Could it be that … these girls were just killed? Could there be … "
Zhao Yu's meaning was obvious. Could there be any who were not dead and could still be saved?
"No … That's not what I mean!" Zhang Peipei gasped heavily, then said in surprise, "The deceased has no body temperature, no heartbeat, no pulse, and no breathing. We can be sure that she has no vital signs!
And … During the autopsy process, the bodies have shown signs of rapid decay. The moisture of the skin has evaporated and oxidized. The bodies are much drier than before, and the faces have changed shape! What we see now is different from what was found in the hanging coffins! "
"Ah!?" Hearing this, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying were both shocked! Zhao Yu quickly asked, "So, someone didn't treat them with embalming?"
"Probably not!" Zhang Peipei said. "When I dissected the corpse just now, other than the makeup on the face, there was no sign of anyone handling it!"
"Then … what about the cause of death?" Miao Ying asked anxiously.
"There was an obvious cut on the deceased's right wrist, and the cut was deep enough to reach the artery," Zhang Peipei said. "Preliminary suspicion is that the possibility of death by cutting the wrist is very high!"
"In other words …" Miao Ying pondered. "We can't be sure if it was a suicide or a murder? Did the deceased show any signs of being drugged? "
"This needs further testing!" Zhang Peipei seemed to have returned to her previous calm state. She said emotionlessly, "About this body, our colleagues are still dissecting it. We can't rule out other causes of death. So, we will have to wait until the dissection is completed and the subsequent tests are done before we know!"
Zhao Yu pondered for a moment and asked, "If the body doesn't rot, that means …"
"Yes!" Zhang Peipei understood what Zhao Yu meant and immediately nodded. "We are unable to determine the specific time of death of the deceased!"
"So, we don't know when the girl was killed?" Zhao Yu turned to Miao Ying and asked, "Team Leader Miao, have you found the identity of the corpse?"
"No!" Miao Ying said. "Zeng Ke is still in the missing people database, but so far only Geng Yaai has been matched!"
"So slow?" Zhao Yu shook his head and asked Zhang Peipei, "Zhang Peipei, apart from the time of death, is there any other information?"
"Well …" Zhang Peipei nodded and said, "The female corpse we are dissecting now is currently called Female Corpse No. 1 because it was transferred from the first hanging coffin of the Seven Star Hanging Coffins.
According to preliminary tests, the age of the deceased Female Corpse No. 1 should be between 16 and 18 years old at the time of death! She was 1.55 meters tall and weighed 45 kilograms … "
Zhang Peipei then reported the situation of the corpse to the two of them.
After the report, Zhao Yu continued to ask, "Zhang Peipei, how is Geng Yaai's condition? Didn't I ask you to transfer her body first? "
"Oh …" Zhang Peipei heard this and hurriedly pointed to the autopsy room. "It has been transported to the autopsy room and is waiting to be processed! Geng Yaai was transferred from the sixth hanging coffin, so we call her Female Corpse No. 6!
"Leader Zhao, I will take care of it myself later!" Zhang Peipei said. "When you informed us on the cliff, we were already dealing with Female Corpse No. 2.
So, the corpses that have been sent to the autopsy room are Female Corpses No. 1, No. 2, and No. 6! As for the others, they have all been put back into the hanging coffins and remain in their original state! I hope that the remaining corpses can be handled in the best way possible! So … I hope you can forgive me for making the decision just now. If I had asked you again, the corpses might not have been preserved! "
"I understand, I understand! Even if you had asked me for advice, I would have made the same decision! No one wants the corpses to be destroyed like that! " Zhao Yu nodded and said, "Since the decay of these three corpses can no longer be stopped, we must hurry up!
"Especially Female Corpse No. 6!" Zhao Yu said. "Geng Yaai is the only deceased that we have identified so far, so we must prioritize dealing with this corpse, which may be crucial to our solving the case!"
"Understood, don't worry!" Zhang Peipei nodded.
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu glanced at Miao Ying, then said to Zhang Peipei, "About the corpses left in the hanging coffins … Medical Examiner Zhang! Can you at least do some simple examinations? Even if it is done in the hanging coffins! "
"Yes!" Miao Ying and Zhao Yu thought of the same thing and quickly agreed. "Only by understanding the cause of death of all the girls can we clarify the direction of our investigation!"
"Okay! Okay! " Zhang Peipei hurriedly took out her mobile phone and agreed. "I will contact my colleagues and ask them to find out the cause of death of all the deceased today!"
"Hmm …"
Zhao Yu had just nodded when the door of the autopsy room suddenly opened. A fully armed medical examiner came out with a plate. On the plate, there was a neatly folded navy blue shroud.
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying recognized at a glance that this must be the shroud worn by Female Corpse No. 1.
"Doctor Zhang," the medical examiner said to Zhang Peipei, "Look, there is a piece of yellow paper wrapped in the shroud, and there are some words written on it!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a piece of yellow paper from the shroud with his gloved hand.
The yellow paper was not big and was not folded. After it was pulled out, everyone could clearly see the words on it. They were traditional Chinese characters written in red.
"1, 2, 3 …" Miao Ying counted. There were a total of eight red words written on the paper.
"Ren … Gui … Bing … Xin …" Zhang Peipei read the words out and wondered, "What does this mean? Why does it look so familiar? "
