Concubine

Chapter 348 Uncertain Cause of Death
Song Yun'er felt that this was simply unbelievable, and asked again: "Brother, did this person really drown?"

"To solve this problem, we must first solve a problem. Can such a small puddle drown people?"

"Of course, I can restrain him, then grab his head and put him in the water, and I will drown in a while." Song Yun'er has first-class martial arts, so of course she takes such things lightly.

Yang Qiuchi smiled: "Then this person must be as powerful as you——I guess I can't find it in this world."

"Virtue~!" Song Yuner tilted her head and said proudly.

"Hey, otherwise, this person must be obviously stronger than the deceased. Otherwise, if two people have no martial arts and similar physical strength, it is almost impossible to drown one person in a small puddle."

"That's true." Song Yun'er nodded.Pointing to the messy hair on the back of the deceased's head, "I think his hair seems to have been grabbed by someone, maybe he was caught and held in the water and drowned."

Yang Qiuchi said: "So, you believe that the deceased was drowned?"

Song Yuner giggled: "I'm not sure, I guessed based on what you said."

"Always guess according to my words. What's the point of that? This time, you can judge for yourself based on your own thinking. If it's wrong, I'll tell you."

"Well! Okay." Song Yun'er squatted down, inspected the corpse carefully, and said to herself: "The deceased did not have obvious sharp or blunt weapon injuries, so he was not beaten to death or stabbed to death with a knife. , His clothes are relatively complete, there are no obvious signs of fighting, and there are no scratches and kick marks of fighting on the ground, so it is unlikely that he was pressed into a puddle and drowned."

When Song Yuner said this, she raised her eyes to look at Yang Qiuchi, saw the approving look in his eyes, and she felt a little more confident in her heart, and then said: "Brother just said, there is a half chance of drowning people not showing fungus-like foam. According to what I said, it can be understood as follows: if fungiform foam appeared, he probably drowned, but if it didn’t appear, drowning cannot be ruled out, so he probably drowned.”

Speaking of this, Song Yuner felt wrong again, she just said that he was not drowned, why did she say yes later, she smiled awkwardly, looked up at Yang Qiuchi, saw that he didn't mean to laugh at her, but didn't say anything .

Only then did Song Yuner feel a little relieved. After thinking for a while, her eyes lit up: "That's right! He was drowned, but he was not drowned by being held in the water, but because he was drunk or fell ill suddenly, and passed out in the They drowned in the puddles!" Song Yuner jumped up, and said to Yang Qiuchi with a smile, "Brother, is what Yuner said right?"

Yang Qiuchi nodded approvingly: "Your analysis is very good and reasonable, and this possibility also exists."

Song Yuner was very proud, and then remembered something: "By the way, apart from being drunk and sick, there is another possibility, that is poisoning, he was poisoned... No, if he was poisoned, he would be poisoned to death, not drowned." Dead, probably drugged, unconscious and drowned. Isn't it?"

Yang Qiuchi nodded: "It's entirely possible. However, you just mentioned three possibilities - drunkenness, sudden illness, and ecstasy. Which one is it?"

Song Yun'er scratched her head and smiled: "This... I don't know about this."

Yang Qiuchi praised: "It's not easy for you to analyze this far." He squatted down, pointed to the face of the deceased, and said: "This person should not have drowned, because his face did not appear to be suffocated. symptoms."

"Symptoms of suffocation? What is suffocation?"

Yang Qiuchi made a neck-choking motion: "Suffocation simply means death due to inability to breathe due to external force. In most cases of drowning, death is caused by inability to breathe. Therefore, general suffocation symptoms will also appear, such as bruises on the face, facial There were bleeding points on the skin, two eyeballs, the fornix of the conjunctiva, the inner surface of the lip mucosa, and the gingival mucosa.”

Song Yun'er carefully looked at the face of the deceased, and said, "It seems that this person has no bleeding spots."

"So, based on the preliminary judgment, this person doesn't seem to be drowned."

"That's strange, how did this person die?" Now even Song Yun'er was confused.

Yang Qiuchi shook his head: "According to the current situation, it is also difficult for me to judge."

"Why?" Song Yuner was anxious.She has been with Yang Qiuchi for so long, but she hasn't heard him say anything that he can't even determine, which makes her very surprised.

The reason why Yang Qiuchi can’t judge is actually very simple. The real cause of death can only be found out through pathological autopsy (of course, it is not absolute. According to statistics, about [-]% of the dead bodies with unknown causes of death pass through the dead body. In the end, the autopsy still couldn’t find the reason, because we still can’t understand some death mechanisms), and the Ming Dynasty couldn’t conduct an autopsy, and Yang Qiuchi’s eyes couldn’t see through the corpse with X-rays, so he couldn’t do anything about it.

According to past experience, Peng Si was most likely to die of sudden death—because of his own underlying cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases or dysfunction.Of course, trauma may also induce internal pathological mutations and cause sudden death. This kind of trauma does not need to be severe. For example, intracranial aneurysm, even if it is just a patient's cough, can cause rupture and intracranial hemorrhage and eventually death.

If it is a disease, it is a natural death.But this is just Yang Qiuchi's speculation.In the case that an autopsy is not possible, the only way to investigate and visit is to see if the deceased had any symptoms that could lead to sudden death.

But the reason for this inability to make a judgment is unclear because it involves too much modern medical knowledge.

Yang Qiuchi smiled wryly and said: "This man's death is indeed very strange. The hair on the back of his head was obviously scratched and torn, as if he was drowned in the water, but there were no signs of struggle or symptoms of drowning. , not to mention the symptoms of death from poisoning. He was wearing a rich man's satin trousers, but he was wearing a coolie's jacket on his upper body, and he died on the pier by the river in the middle of the night. It is not clear how he died. It's really strange."

Song Yun'er saw that Yang Qiuchi was still there, but she was a little anxious: "Then what should I do?"

Yang Qiuchi squatted down and looked carefully at the footprints next to the corpse, took out a soft ruler from his arms to measure the size of the footprints, thought for a while, then pointed to a few relatively small footprints beside the puddle, and said to Song Yuner: "Have you noticed? There are some scattered footprints next to the corpse. Those big shoe prints may have been left by the person who found the corpse, but the few smaller shoe prints are very strange. From the appearance, they should be children. footprints."

Song Yun'er squatted down and took a closer look: "That's right, it's a child's shoe print, so there's nothing strange about it, maybe it was left by the child who came to watch the fun."

Yang Qiuchi shook his head: "No, I measured it just now. Judging from the shoe prints, this child may only be fourteen or fifteen years old. Have you noticed that these shoe prints are next to the body of the corpse, a fourteen or five-year-old child?" Even if the child is very bold, if he runs up close to watch the excitement, will he run right next to the dead body to watch? Isn’t he afraid that the dead man will reach out and grab him? Haha.”

Song Yuner glared at Yang Qiuchi: "I know how to scare people!" After thinking for a while, she nodded and said, "That's right, if children want to watch the excitement, they won't go to the corpse to watch it, a few steps away is good. "

"Hmm! These children's shoe prints are very suspicious. If the deceased died of homicide and the child was the murderer, then it would be understandable. But... now it doesn't look like homicide... Anyway, this is We will pay attention to it in the subsequent investigation."

"Investigate?" Song Yuner asked curiously, "Investigate what?"

Yang Qiuchi said: "Investigate and visit, see if you find anything. ***... Ahem, a sage once said that without investigation, there is no right to speak. Therefore, you must investigate before you can find out. "

"Ah? Which sage said it? Why haven't I heard of it?" Song Yuner opened her eyes wide.

"So you need to study more!" Yang Qiuchi laughed.

"Hmph~! It seems like you have read a lot. Forget it, I don't bother to ask you." Song Yuner rolled her eyes and said, "Can I help you investigate?" Girls like to inquire about things the most.

"Okay!" Yang Qiuchi smiled and looked at her up and down, "You are a girl, and you are so obedient. Before you ask, she will ask you. Hehehe."

Song Yun'er gave Yang Qiuchi a blank look, and said angrily, "Just make fun of him! Tell me, how and what should I investigate?"

Yang Qiuchi has a big head, he doesn't know this, and he said he would help himself.Then he said patiently: "Go and ask the person who discovered the corpse first, and see how the corpse was discovered. I will ask you to go if I need to investigate later."

"Okay!" Song Yun'er walked up to those who had been waiting to find the corpse not far away, and asked in a very capable manner: "Who among you discovered this corpse first?"

A man with the appearance of a coolie nodded and bowed to Song Yun'er.

Song Yuner looked him up and down: "You were the first to discover the deceased?"

The man quickly nodded again.

"What's your name? What do you do and where do you live?" Song Yuner asked calmly.

"I...my name is Zhao Shuan. I'm a dock porter for Mr. Peng's family. I live in a shed on the dock."

"Was the dead man's body in this position when you found it?"

The other party nodded, then shook his head, and then timidly looked at Peng Hexi who was standing a few steps away.

Song Yun'er caught this detail, smiled meaningfully, and asked, "How did you find the body? Tell me about it."
