The literary era since 1979

The forensic reasoning school was almost unique in the world of reasoning in the early 80s.

Unlike later generations, there are endless forensic TV dramas.

American TV series include "Bones" and "Forensic Science", Japanese TV series include "Unnatural" and "Forensic Story", and domestic TV series include "Forensic Qin Ming", "Forensic Files" and "Forensic Psychic" which involve forensic scientists solving cases.

At present, whether in the United States, Japan or in China, the most popular subjects for solving cases are still sheriffs or famous detectives.

Forensic reasoning is like reinstating the "Watson" in "Sherlock Holmes" into a famous detective who can solve cases like a god.

It is precisely this type of mystery novel that mystery fans like Yoko Suzuki and Yui Hashimoto have never read, let alone heard of.

Fangyan said firmly: "Because this type of reasoning is unique to us Chinese!"

Forensic mystery novels have existed in China since ancient times?

Bai Ruoxue, Gong Xing, Tang Shengnan and others looked at each other, with confusion written all over their faces.

"This type of work can be traced back to the Song Dynasty, or the Southern Song Dynasty to be more precise."

The proposal directly mentioned "Xi Yuan Ji Lu", "This book was written by Song Ci in the Song Dynasty. It is the world's first systematic forensic medicine work, which is a culmination of ancient forensic medicine. It also records some criminal examination cases, which are amazing..."

"Song Ci?"

Not only Yoko Suzuki, Yui Hashimoto and Mike, but even Bai Ruoxue and others heard this name for the first time and felt unfamiliar.

"He is the Sherlock Holmes of my novel."

He spoke patiently in dialect. Both the Hong Kong drama "Xi Yuan Ji Lu" and the drama "The Judge Advocate of the Song Dynasty" were adapted from Song Ci's "Xi Yuan Ji Lu". They tell the story of Song Ci solving difficult cases after he entered the officialdom. The former is light-hearted, while the latter is depressing.

Therefore, the two were slightly integrated, writing about both the darkness and corruption in the officialdom of the Southern Song Dynasty and the novelty of forensic medicine solving cases, taking into account both literature and entertainment. Only in this way can the heavy and powerless feeling of the entire novel be alleviated.

Some people win but lose, some people lose but win.

"Si Guoyi!"

Looking at him talking nonstop, Hashimoto Yui couldn't help but sigh.

Yoko Suzuki also refreshed my understanding of mystery novels. If you think about it carefully, it is indeed very interesting.

Forensic scientists can conduct medical investigations and track evidence to provide key evidence for investigations, such as scars, bloodstains, biological samples, etc. These evidences are very helpful in determining the identity of the suspect and even reconstructing the crime scene. They can also perform autopsies on corpses.

Through the autopsy of the deceased, we can step by step deduce and reconstruct the crime process, determine the cause of death, time of death and other information.

"And it can teach us a lot of forensic knowledge throughout the process."

Fangyan smiled and said that forensic identification in China started late and developed slowly, so perhaps it could provide a boost.

Suzuki Yoko's eyes were full of passion. "Teacher Fang, can we read this novel?"

Yui Hashimoto, Mike and the others are also full of expectations. After all, there are many different schools of reasoning, such as the orthodox school, the reformer school, the social school, the tough guy school, and the new orthodox school. However, as for the forensic reasoning school, so far, only Teacher Fang has such a copy.

“I haven’t finished writing it yet.”

Fang Yan waved his hand and said, "Unfortunately, I didn't bring it with me today."

"what!"

Everyone couldn't help but sigh with regret, wishing they could watch "Song Ci, the Chief Justice of the Song Dynasty" right away.

"Don't feel sorry. This is not the right occasion to bring it out."

Fangyan pointed at the roast duck, duck soup, etc. and said, "Discussing autopsies at the dinner table is really unappetizing."

"Yanzi is right. We must not let Ruoxue and Xiaoya down for inviting us to this dinner."

Fang Hong clapped her hands and nodded in agreement.

Everyone agreed. Fangyan said that if they really wanted to see it, they could bring it over on the day of the graduation ceremony for them to enjoy.

Tang Shengnan raised her glass and said in a loud voice: "Don't say anything else, let's toast to Teacher Fang first!" "Cheers!"

In an instant, the wine glasses collided, making a crisp sound.

At the beginning of the banquet, Bai Ruoxue and other hosts gave brief opening remarks. Everyone, including Gong Xian, was very reserved.

But after drinking, the atmosphere gradually relaxed.

Everyone was very excited and spoke louder.

They clinked glasses and toasted each other, all of them feeling a little tipsy.

At this dinner table, we became sentimental unconsciously. No one knew why, nor did they need to know why.

In the festive and sad atmosphere, Bai Ruoxue, Su Ya, Tang Shengnan and others sang "The Story of Time" together:
"The blooming of flowers in spring, the wind in autumn, and the setting sun in winter,
Melancholy youth, when I was young, I once thought ignorantly,
Time takes away the songs of the four seasons, and I sing softly

In the poems of wind, flowers, snow and moon, I grow up year by year
The flowing water takes away the story of time and changes a person.
In that sentimental and first waiting youth..."

"Clap clap clap."

While the people present were applauding and cheering, someone suggested a song that suited the occasion, saying that it was not time to say goodbye yet.

Just like a drinking game, Mike, Yoko Suzuki, and Yui Hashimoto took over the baton one after another and sang a little song from their hometown.

With one song after another, everyone just wants to blur the years and forget about time.

Then, after one round, it was the turn of Gong Xing, Fang Hong and others.

"Let Yanzi go first!"

"Yes, Teacher Fang is the best at writing lyrics!"

Bai Ruoxue, Suzuki Yoko and others were drunk and cheered loudly.

"one comes!"

"Yanzi, come one!"

Gong Xing, Fang Hong, Fang Yan and others also joined the crowd to make trouble, just to watch the fun.

Fangyan rolled his eyes helplessly, his brain working rapidly for a while.

Seeing her man in such a rare state of embarrassment, Gong Xing chuckled out loud.

Fangyan's eyes lit up and he cleared his throat: "I walked and stopped along the way, following the traces of the boy's wandering..."

"I can't help but laugh at this feeling of homesickness, which is still unavoidable...

The wind blew up the past, the time when I first knew this world,
I lingered there, looking at the horizon as if it were before my eyes,

I am willing to go through fire and water to walk through it again. Now I have walked through this world... I have been unable to extricate myself from the vastness of the world!"

I indulge in my dream talk, not knowing what is true or false, not struggling, not afraid of being laughed at.

"I once turned my youth into her, and played the summer with my fingertips."

"Just follow your heart, walk against the light, and let the wind and rain blow~"

All of a sudden, the emotions that had been suppressed for the entire evening, like a dam storing flood water, gradually broke through in the singing.

No one could tell where the emotions that broke through the tear glands came from and where they were going.

But there was an urge to cry, and one by one, they gradually became tipsy or drunk, revealing their true colors, sobbing quietly, shedding tears silently...

Bai Ruoxue opened her mouth and sang along quietly. She couldn't help but think what it would be like if this song could be sung at the graduation ceremony.

But I just felt as if a breeze was blowing gently across my face. (End of this chapter)
