I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 88
what? !

Lu Xizhi was not calm at all. The identities of the two dead bodies were not yet known, and the cause of Feng Wuxi's death was still unclear. Here came another daughter of the Minister's Mansion, and unprecedented pressure was instantly placed on Dongchang... and Dali Temple.

"Where's the body? What's the cause of death?"

Nanyang Hui: "It was Pan Shangshu who recruited the imperial physician. It seems that Pan Yutong happened at home. The cause of death given by Dali Temple is very similar to that of Feng Wuxi."

Was that also a natural death caused by a weak heart in a short period of time?

Lu Xizhi was not reconciled: "Pan Shangshu's family accepted it?"

"It looks like this."

Lu Xizhi couldn't help kicking the table.

Oops... forgot how hard the tables and chairs at Dongchang are.

She squatted down silently, feeling a sense of powerlessness flooding her heart and body. With so many doubts, she really wanted to hold the sign given by Yuan Yanxi and rush to the General's Mansion and the Shangshu Mansion, regardless of her identity and gender.But father and mother, what about the Lu family's reputation? There are many rules and principles here, so she can't just think about herself.

Suddenly, Yuan Yanxi's face crashed into his mind without warning, that stern face, indifferent voice, decisive wolf eyes, and warm lips...

Pa, no, no, slap to wake myself up, thinking nonsense.

The little face was reddish, if he was here, it would be more convenient...

Just as Yuan Yanxi stepped into the lobby, what she saw was such a pitiful doormat.

Lu Xizhi was wearing a servant's uniform, squatting on the ground, not knowing what he was thinking, his face was as red as a pink peach, and the fingers of his right hand unconsciously drew circles on the ground, just like that petite ball, his small mouth pouted slightly, Yuan Yanxi's eyes rolled In the dark, he pursed his lips lightly.

The corner of the mouth was pulled up, and the indifferent appearance brought a hint of playfulness: "What kind of witchcraft did Miss Lu learn?"

Yuan Yanxi! !

Lu Xizhi looked up in surprise, and the tall and handsome man stood not far away like a god, with his hands behind his back, always a leader with a well-thought-out attitude.With a fever in her head, she rushed up and hugged his strong waist, her face was firmly pressed against the thick chest of the factory supervisor Wei'an, and she couldn't restrain the surprise and excitement in her mouth:

"Factory Superintendent!! You are back!"

Everyone present was stunned, especially the four people who had followed Yuan Yanxi all the year round, as well as the hidden guards in the dark, were surprised by Lu Xizhi's bold move.

Sensing the stupefied stares from the crowd, Yuan Yanxi flew over with a cold look, killing everyone in an instant, and lowered their heads as if they didn't see it.

Lu Xizhi felt the muscles under his face twitch, as if he was trying to suppress something. When he looked up, it turned out that Yuan Yanxi was smiling. This was the first time he saw him laughing at such a close distance. A wave of heat rushed straight from the soles of his feet. Face to face.

What is she doing! ! ?He jumped several meters away, apologized incoherently, did not dare to look anywhere, only stared at his feet, his face was like a bloodshot red apple.

The sudden loss of the hug also made Yuan Yanxi stunned. She seemed a little unsatisfied. She stared straight at the little girl, taking a panoramic view of her shyness, and the feeling of being close to her... not bad, she always has a sense of happiness. The seemingly absent floral fragrance, I don't reject it at all.

After clapping their hands regrettably, Yuan Yanxi began to ask about the business: "Do you think there is something wrong with the bodies of Feng Wuxi and Pan Yutong?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xizhi immediately put on a serious expression, "Yes, within two days, two prominent women died with similar symptoms, which is very suspicious." She took two steps, while Thinking: "There is also the dead body that was salvaged from Qinghu Lake, and it is very likely that it is a descendant of a family. These three cases seem to be unrelated, but at this point in time, there are many similarities. Doesn't the factory supervisor think Is it strange?"

"How is Qinghu's corpse?"

Bei Xue replied: "Back to the factory supervisor, yesterday Miss Lu suspected that the deceased looked like Zhong Shilang's daughter, she has already sent someone to identify the body, and she will be there in a while."

"It's almost noon, Yuan Zhi's results should be almost the same, let me go and have a look." Yuan Yanxi walked in front.

Lu Xizhi deliberately lagged some distance behind, he didn't know what Yuan Yanxi would think of the overly excited Meng Lang just now, and peeked ahead, seeing that the other party was still a majestic tiger and wolf, he probably didn't take it to heart .

For some reason, this guess is a bit vaguely uncomfortable...

"You guys are here." Wang Yuanzhi took off his mask and gloves, ordered them to be fully armed, and came to the corpse.

"I found that the deceased's chest and lungs were very abnormal, which was different from the atrophy of ordinary people. I thought it was caused by drowning, but later found that the deceased was submerged in the water after death. So I began to suspect that her ribs might have suffered severe injuries. It caused fractures, punctured the membrane lung tissue, caused emphysema and rupture of lung abscess, and resulted in death." Wang Yuanzhi stopped, looking at them thoughtfully, with a certain... abrupt surprise unique to forensic medicine.

"Then after your autopsy, is it really like this?" Lu Xizhi was very cooperative and gave an expectant look.

Wang Yuanzhi began to gesture on the corpse, and explained: "When I made a longitudinal incision in the middle of the deceased's chest, I did not find any fracture scars. However, when I stripped the subcutaneous tissue to the midaxillary line on both sides, I discovered the real cause of her death."

Rather proud, he lifted something similar to a skin pouch to make it into a pouch, filled it with water, and used a knife to pierce the intercostal space between the first and second ribs under the water surface. Lu Xizhi saw that there were bubbles coming out. water surface.

The two didn't understand Wang Yuanzhi's intentions and looked at him suspiciously.

"The deceased died of a pneumothorax!"

"Pneumothorax?" Lu Xizhi searched for this term in his mind, but found that he still didn't know anything about it.

Wang Yuanzhi further explained that the pleural cavity is composed of the pleural parietal layer and the visceral layer. It is a closed potential cavity that does not contain air. If the pleura is damaged for any reason, once the air enters the pleural cavity through the rupture, it will cause pneumothorax.The most common pneumothorax is the rupture of the lung tissue and visceral pleura due to lung disease, or the pulmonary bullae near the surface of the lung. The small air pneumothorax ruptures on its own, and the air in the lung and bronchi escapes into the pleural cavity, also known as spontaneous pneumothorax. pneumothorax.

"Regardless of whether the deceased was spontaneous or not, I found a small hole in her lung tissue. It stands to reason that death would not have been caused without vigorous activity, so the deceased should have been severely frightened or Exciting things, causing the emphysema bubbles to burst."

"So, someone pierced a hole in her chest?" Lu Xizhi was a little surprised. Is this possible?
"It can be understood in this way." Wang Yuanzhi rubbed his chin. This kind of murder method can be said to be thoughtful and extremely cunning.

The master once said: when the bulla ruptures, spontaneous pneumothorax will occur, with sudden chest pain and dyspnea. The valve is closed, and the gas cannot be discharged. Generally, a person can only breathe in, but not out. Especially when coughing, every breath and cough will increase the amount of gas in the chest cavity, forming a tension pneumothorax, and the lung tissue on the affected side is completely shrunk. The mediastinum is pushed to the side, and the large veins are distorted and deformed, which affects the return of blood and causes serious respiratory and circulation disorders, which may lead to rapid cardiopulmonary failure and death.

Lu Xizhi understood it completely. She wanted to ask more questions, but was stopped by Wang Yuanzhi's eyes. Following his reminder, she finally saw Yuan Yanxi's gloomy face, narrowed eyes, and a very dangerous expression. Staring at her and Wang Yuanzhi.

She was startled... This term is too professional.

Sure enough, Yuan Yanxi's face was not gloomy, and he said vaguely: "It seems that the two of you are very familiar with this kind of death, why don't you ask Ms. Lu to be more 'simple' and give me a special explanation?"

This…

But to Wang Yuanzhi's ears, why did Jing Ming's tone carry a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction?
　A simple sentence, repeated.

　　Hope you understand again, thank you, thank you
