The duke of the governor's family is leaving again

Chapter 273 Verification of Bone Age
While Chen Yuan was examining the bones one by one, Lu Xing was the first to pick up the pelvis for examination.

Excitedly pointing at one place, he said, "Master, this corpse has a birth scar on the back side of the pubic symphysis near the medial edge."

Lu Xing said that he learned to live forever, and since he learned the unheard-of autopsy method from Chen Yuan, he had to be called Master Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan couldn't shirk it, so she let him call.

"Yes, this female corpse once gave birth to a child."

Lu Xing is like a student who was randomly checked by his husband and answered correctly, "So there is no problem in identifying her, she is Qi."

Chen Yuan looked up at Lu Xing who was still excited like a child in middle age, "So, where is the child?"

"Kid...child?"

Not only Lu Xing was stunned, but the others were also dumbfounded.

"Six years ago, Qi Shi was pregnant in ten months and died of dystocia. When she died, the child had not landed yet, and was buried with her mother in the coffin."

Chen Yuan pointed at the pieced bones on the mat, "Look, the bones I put together are only a complete adult female bone, so what about the formed child's bone?"

Everyone paid attention to the cause of death of the female corpse, arguing about the relationship between Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Liu, inspector Luo, and forgot about it.

"That's right, the bones of a month-old child have already been formed, what about the child's skeleton?"

"Could it be that the child crawled out by himself?"

"The coffin is sealed, how did the child crawl out?"

"Could it be that the child had a mouthful of innate vitality, and became resentful because of death, and became a ghost baby..."

"Learning the universe, cultivated to the point of nonsense."

"Perhaps, some servants found out that the child was not dead after being born, so they kindly took the child away."

"Take the child away, why don't you give it to Master Luo?" Because I have never heard of a child in the Luo Mansion.

"Maybe, it's because I'm worried that the child will follow his father and stepmother..."

"The more you say it, the more shameful it becomes. At that time, Mrs. Liu hadn't married Lord Luo yet."

"Maybe that person knew that they were tricky, so he didn't dare to send the child back."

For a while, you can say anything.

The officials of the county yamen, Li Xu, had dark complexions. They naturally didn't know how to follow others' opinions, and at the same time, they also felt that there must be enemy agents in the crowd to make trouble.

The yamen servants stared wide-eyed, trying to find someone with rhythm in the crowd.

If the matter involved a male official, Guan Zhixian could still go up and say a few words of comfort, but the current inspector Liu was involved in the matter, and it was not easy for him to go up and sell it.

Mrs. Liu sat under the parasol calmly, her mood stable.

According to the usual situation, the county magistrate Wei had long been yin and yang, and he couldn't see the situation like the chicken Sichen the most, but now, he put his arms around his tail and acted like a man, without saying a word about Mrs. Liu.

Those who should speak do not open their mouths.

Lieutenant Ge County, who was in charge of the prison, had no choice but to step forward and ask.

"Chen Yuzuo, besides this, do you have any other discoveries?"

Chen Yuan picked up the pelvis that Lu Xing put down, "This is the skeleton of a woman aged 45 to 49."

As soon as this remark came out, those who knew her raised their eyes to look at her.

"Impossible. When Qi died, she was only 24 years old."

"Chen Yuzuo, did you read it wrong?"

"Chen Wuzuo, it's normal for you to judge the gender of the skeleton, but how can you determine the age of the skeleton?"

"I believe in Chen Yu's judgment. When she said that, she must mean that the bones in the coffin were not Qi's. Maybe Qi was not dead at all."

Wen Pei, who was escorted to the scene to see the autopsy, became excited, "Impossible, Wenying told me, the lady is dead, covered in blood, the lady is the shroud she washed herself and changed."

Chen Yuan was not affected by what others said. During the autopsy, she only believed in the bones, and the bones would not lie.

She pointed to the ear-shaped surface of the iliac bone of the pelvis, and showed it to Lu Xing, "Look here, there are no wavy lines, no streaks, the microporous structure has disappeared and has become densified, and the irregularity of the bone edges has increased."

Lu Xing nodded with bright eyes, "So? Master?"

Chen Yuan beckoned to Luo Zhao.

Luo Zhao came over with a long wooden box on his back.

He put the wooden box on the ground and lifted the lid. When everyone looked down, it turned out to be a complete bone.

Chen Yuan put down the skeleton in her hand, walked to the skeleton, and explained, "This is the skeleton of the magistrate's family members who voluntarily donated to the criminal name cause in order to better solve the case in the future."

The last time we collected dozens of skeletons, we only used it once.

This is to be used by the county government for a lifetime. Although the ancients felt that such a thing was too bizarre, they did not respect the deceased.

But the family members have voluntarily donated the bones, and there is still a righteousness in it, and no one can say anything wrong.

"To make a comparison today, I first selected a female skeleton from among the donated skeletons, which is about the same age as Qi's. The wooden box has the donated object's name, gender, age, and place of origin."

It means that both identity and birth can be tested and can stand the investigation.

"The donor's information has also been included in the county government's file library, and as a contributor to the county, it has been published in the county annals. If you are interested, you can buy a copy of the county annals to check!"

Wow!
Can go to the county annals!

Doesn't that mean that it will be immortalized forever? !
In the future, as long as the solution to the case is related to the contributions made by these skeletons, these merits and virtues will be recorded on these skeletons, and they will be reborn in wealthy families in the next life!
At this moment, everyone didn't feel how pitiful the person whose bones were donated would never be reborn, but they became envious, and felt that they were too slow to start, and they didn't even know about such a good thing.

Luo Zhao also cooperatively erected the wooden lid and handed it to everyone.

"Guo Yuting, Guoziwan, Fengshao Village, Weiyu County, female, 23 years old, gave birth to a son and a daughter, died of drowning."

Lu Xing already understood what Chen Yuan meant, and couldn't wait to remove the pelvis from the wooden box and the frame that fixed the skeleton.

Look towards the auricular surface of the ilium.

"Master, I understand!"

He excitedly touched the uneven surface of the bone, "The ear-shaped surface of this young woman has clear waves and a smooth outline. The bone I saw just now is very rough and looks worn. serious."

Chen Yuan nodded, "Yes, the bones of normal 24- to [-]-year-old people have a fine-grained auricular surface of the ilium, with significant horizontal deconstruction, clear waves, and smooth contours."

"People of all ages have their own bones, just like our faces. We have seen a lot of appearances of all ages. When we see a 20-year-old, we don't think he is 40. , a 70-year-old person can't pretend to be eighteen. The reason why people don't know the age of bones is because people don't know how to study and summarize bones. If you see them less often, you won't be able to recognize them. As long as you see them more, you can tell them at a glance. Skeletal bone age."

"If you still have doubts about my words, you are also welcome to come to the county government to see if the bones of donors in their 40s are in the same state of wear and tear as this one."
