Chapter 49 Overtime
Wu Lei didn't take Song Jiang's "tactful" warning to heart, and even sneered at Song Jiang's "hell theory", but he soon paid the price for his "ignorance"...

Wu Lei had nothing to do that night, but just after he broke up with Song Jiang and the others, he received a call from the team, saying that they had just picked up a client who fell into the water and drowned, and asked him to go back and work overtime overnight.

When he returned to the unit, he happened to meet his assistant Xiao Liu, and Wu Lei asked strangely, "Since it has been determined that he died by slipping and drowning, why is there an autopsy?!"

After hearing this, Xiao Liu said with a sad face, "Isn't it because the family members have doubts about the cause of death? They said that the deceased was very good at swimming, and he was a member of the university swimming team. It is impossible for such a thing as slipping and drowning to happen to him."

Upon hearing this, Wu Lei also felt that the family members' words made sense, so he went to the locker room to change, and then he was going to work overtime in the anatomy room.Unexpectedly, he had just changed into his work clothes and came out when he saw a man covered in water standing in the corridor.

Wu Lei looked around and found that there was no colleague in the corridor, so he walked up quickly and asked, "Sir... who are you looking for?"

The man suddenly raised his head when he heard the voice, looked at Wu Lei in surprise and said, "You...are you talking to me?"

Wu Lei was also dumbfounded by the other party's question. He thought to himself that there are only the two of us in this entire corridor. Is it possible to talk to you or a ghost?But since the other party was an ordinary citizen, he had no choice but to say patiently, "Sir, are you here to report the crime?"

The man opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he saw the words "Anatomy Room" written on the door behind Wu Lei, his face turned pale instantly. Seeing this, Wu Lei thought there was something wrong with the other party's body. Uncomfortable, so I hurried forward to check, but the next second the man suddenly spit out a large amount of sand from his mouth, which shocked Wu Lei back again and again...

"Forensic doctor Wu?" Xiao Liu, who heard the movement, came out of the office, and saw Wu Lei standing at the door of the dissecting room with a terrified expression, so he hurriedly asked.

Wu Lei quickly calmed down after seeing Xiao Liu, but when he looked at the place where the man was standing again, he found that it was empty, as if nothing had happened just now...

At this moment, Xiao Liu walked up to him and asked worriedly, "Wu Fayi, are you okay?!"

Wu Lei shook his head in embarrassment and said, "It's nothing... Maybe it's because I haven't had a good rest these days." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Liu to speak, he hurried into the dissection room, ready to start tonight's work .

Xiao Liu is Wu Lei's recent intern. He is smart and hard-working. Seeing that Wu Lei's mental state seems to be a bit off today, he hurried over to help Wu Lei take the body out of the freezer. When opening the zipper of the body bag, Wu Lei at the side froze in place for an instant...

This is the first time that Wu Lei has felt what it means to have a numb scalp and straight hair... The man who suddenly appeared and disappeared at the door of the dissection room before turned out to be the one that Wu Lei was about to dissect next. corpse.

Perhaps because he noticed Wu Lei's strangeness, Xiao Liu asked tentatively, "Wu Forensic...how about you go to the office to rest for a while? I will finish the preliminary preparations?!"

After regaining his senses, Wu Lei shook his head and said, "It's okay, finish work early and call it a day... Let me tell you about the specific situation of the deceased first."

As a forensic doctor who can work independently, Wu Lei quickly entered the working state. At this time, Xiao Liu read a copy of the deceased's information, "The deceased's name is Zheng Shengtao. He is 27 years old today. He was with some friends yesterday morning. We went fishing together in a reservoir in the suburbs, because Zheng Shengtao's water quality has always been very good, so when he fell into the water, some friends thought he was joking with everyone. They didn't know until Zheng Shengtao didn't come up after diving for more than 5 minutes Something happened, but unfortunately, none of the people on the shore could swim, and when they got the reservoir manager to rescue them, Zheng Shengtao's body had already floated up by itself."

After hearing this, Wu Lei looked at the swollen belly of the corpse, and immediately thought of the puddle of sand that Zheng Shengtao spit out just now, and felt a sense of discomfort in his heart, which he had never experienced since he was in the forensic profession. ...But as a professional forensic doctor, Wu Lei quickly adjusted his state and completed the next autopsy.

There is no doubt that Zheng Shengtao died by drowning, but when they opened the abdominal cavity and saw his stomach full of mud, Wu Lei and Xiao Liu were all stunned. Wu Lei had not seen the drowned body before. But it was the first time that there was so much silt in the stomach.

"These buddies...couldn't have died from eating mud!" Xiao Liu couldn't help complaining.

Wu Lei also felt that there was a lot of silt in Zheng Shengtao's stomach. Normal drowned people must have silt, algae and other substances in their noses and stomachs.

It was past ten o'clock in the evening when the autopsy ended, so Wu Lei asked Xiao Liu to go back to rest first, and stay to write the autopsy report by himself.But for some reason, Wu Lei felt a little flustered in his heart. He couldn't calm down to write the report, and even kept thinking about the scene he saw at the door of the dissecting room in his mind...

Just when Wu Lei was about to get up and make himself a cup of coffee to refresh himself, he suddenly saw a drop of sewage land on his desk with a "click". Wu Lei looked up and saw a pale The human face was suspended above his head, and the sewage was continuously flowing out of the human face's mouth and nose.

Song Jiang was pacing back and forth in the library at this time. He severely criticized Meng Zhe's behavior today, but Meng Zhe said that Wu Lei's horoscope is very hard, even if he sees a ghost, it will be all right, and he just started temporarily. Wu Lei's yin and yang eyes, when the sun rises tomorrow, Wu Lei's yin and yang eyes will automatically close.

Having said that, Song Jiang is still very worried. After all, Wu Lei's work is of a special nature, and the chance of seeing a ghost is higher than that of ordinary people. Thinking of this, Song Jiang decided to call Wu Lei to feel at ease...

Unexpectedly, as soon as the call was connected, Wu Lei's voice asked Song Jiang in horror, "Did that Meng man do something to me today?"

Song Jiang knew something was wrong as soon as he heard it, so he hurriedly asked, "Where are you?!"

"Where else can I be, of course it's at work!" Wu Lei said angrily.

Song Jiang became angry after hearing this, "You...Didn't I tell you not to go out tonight? Why can't you understand people's words?!"

"I can't understand people's language? Can I not go out because I have work?! You...you come to my unit quickly!! Hurry up!" Wu Lei hung up the phone in a hurry after finishing speaking.
