Translator: CokeZero Editor: RainystarsOfficer Zhao frowned and nodded calmly. “I’ll cooperate with you. What do you want to do next?”
Xie Yunjin quickly spoke up, “Do you have a way to find another coroner to re-examine the body, and also let Lu Jiao take a look?”
Although Lu Jiao could perform autopsies, she was not a coroner. Even if she found something, others would not be convinced. Secondly, Xie Yunjin did not want Lu Jiao to come into contact with the corpse. She was a doctor, not a coroner.
Officer Zhao thought for a moment and immediately said, “Okay, I’ll find another coroner to perform the autopsy.”
Officer Zhao used to solve lots of criminal cases outside of the Qinghe District and knew the coroners from other districts. Although there was usually tension between districts, he could still ask a coroner from a neighboring district to come to Qinghe District to perform an autopsy.
After officer Zhao and Xie Yunjin spoke, Lu Jiao went back home. On the way,
Lu Jiao said to Xie Yunjin, “If that person comes to perform the autopsy, you should let officer Zhao and that person know that I will be there, taking a look.” Xie Yunjin looked at her worriedly and asked, “Will you be afraid?”
Although Lu Jiao was a doctor and theoretically should not be afraid, Xie Yunjin was still worried.
Lu Jiao immediately smiled and shook her head. “I’m a doctor. What am I afraid of? I’m not afraid.
Officer Zhao spent the night going to the neighboring district to find another coroner and then applied for a new autopsy warrant. Magistrate Hu naturally cooperated, but his assistant magistrate Yang was not happy and tried to stop it.
“Officer Zhao, what do you mean? This is a case in the Qinghe District. Why do you need to involve a coroner from another district? How can you make Qinghe District lose face?”
Officer Zhao looked at assistant magistrate Yang with a serious expression and said, “This is a homicide case and I am an officer. Liu Laidi has been pleading innocent and claiming she did not kill Luo Xinwu. In order to take this case seriously, I need to carefully ask another person to re-examine the body. What about it? Did I do something wrong? Assistant magistrate Yang, you don’t seem to care about human life.
Assistant magistrate Yang’s expression was not good. He noticed that officer Zhao seemed to have some sort of grudge against him. What did this mean?
Assistant magistrate Yang’s expression darkened for a moment. Then he put on a smile and said to officer Zhao, “Officer Zhao, I’m thinking about our Qinghe District. If we let coroners from other districts perform the autopsy, doesn’t that bring shame to the Qinghe District? Moreover, by having others re-examine it, aren’t you effectively saying that our coroner is incompetent?
Song Wuzuo may get angry if you do this. He is the only coroner in our district.
What if he gets angry and quits?”
Assistant magistrate Yang tried to persuade him.
Just then, Song Wuzuo, the coroner, burst in angrily, shouting, “Officer Zhao, what is the meaning of this!? Don’t you believe in my autopsy skills?! You brought in someone else from another county to re-examine the corpse!? If you do this, how can I continue working as the coroner in the Qinghe District? If you let others examine it, I will resign from my job as the coroner!”
Officer Zhao turned around and looked at Song Wuzuo, “Are you threatening me, Song Wuzuo? Let me ask you, is your face more important than a human life? Liu Laidi claims that she is wronged. Therefore, I invited someone from another district to re-examine the case out of caution. I really don’t know what’s bothering you two so much that you feel the need to come over to stop me.”
After officer Zhao finished, he squinted his eyes and stared at assistant magistrate Yang and Song Wuzuo, “Is there something here that I don’t know about?”
Assistant magistrate Yang and Song Wuzuo’s hearts sank slightly, and both of them shook their heads, “It has nothing to do with us. We’re just afraid that Qinghe District will lose face.”
Officer Zhao sneered, “By doing this, the people will only praise us for being reliable and responsible in handling matters. We invited someone to examine the case again out of caution.”
Officer Zhao didn’t want to say much to these two anymore, he raised his hand and said, “I’ve already gone to get an official letter from magistrate Hu, so don’t stop me.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left with Wang Wuzuo, the coroner from the neighboring district, to go to Yizhuang.
Liu Jiao and Feng Zhi, disguised as men, followed behind Wang Wuzuo all the way to Yizhuang.
Officer Zhao told Wang Wuzuo that Liu Jiao wanted to learn the skill of examining corpses and wanted to tag along to observe.
Wang Wuzuo looked at Liu Jiao and Feng Zhi with an incredulous expression.
“You’re such a young man, why must you learn this? You can learn anything! Besides, it’s not a profitable or popular job. It’s hard and tiring, and when there’s a murder case at night, you have to get up in the middle of the night. Moreover, you often have to deal with smelly corpses, resulting in a constantly poor appetite.”
After Lu Jiao heard Wang Wuzuo’s words, she secretly rejoiced that she didn’t choose to become a forensic doctor and chose to become a surgeon instead.
“I’ll go and learn today. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll change my profession in the future.’
Wang Wuzuo looked at Liu Jiao with relief and felt that he had done a good deed by saving a young man who was about to fall into a trap.
“Then go take a look, I guarantee that after you see it, you won’t want to learn this anymore.” “Thank you, Wang Wuzuo.”
“It’s nothing.”
The group went all the way to Yizhuang.
Although Luo Xinwu was killed, due to being drugged, his face didn’t show any signs of pain or distress. He appeared as if he were sleeping, and there were no signs of lividity except for a large bloodstain on his chest. Other than that, there was nothing else unpleasant to see.
Lu Jiao remained calm and Fengzhi let out a sigh of relief. She was afraid that the dead body would be too gruesome to look at, but after seeing it, she thought it was acceptable.
As soon as Wang Wuzuo arrived at Yizhuang, he began to perform the autopsy in a very responsible manner. He checked every inch of the body before finally confirming that the wound on the victim’s chest was fatal and that it was a single, deadly blow. There were no other injuries on his body. “It seems that the woman killed him,” sighed Wang Wuzuo.
Lu Jiao casually asked him for advice.
“Wang Wuzuo, I heard that the lady was sleeping on the inside of the bed, while her husband was sleeping on the outside. If she killed her husband, isn’t there something wrong with her technique? For example, the weight of the knife might unconsciously tilt inwards due to inertia.”
After Wang Wuzuo hearing Lu Jiao’s question, he immediately brightened up and started to examine the body again. He finally confirmed that the cut was slanting outwards, with the outside force point being heavier. This indicated that the killer was standing at the side of the bed, and the lady was sleeping on the inside at the time. When she was found, she was still holding a knife, trembling inside the bed.
After he made this discovery, Wang Wuzuo carefully examined the body again and said, “The murderer is likely someone else, and it is likely a man. Women who kill are often fearful and do not strike decisively, which makes their wounds unclean. However, this strike was decisive with a heavy force point, indicating that the killer was likely skilled..”
