Chapter Thirteen: Don't Move, Raise Your Left Palm

Wang was confused and didn't know how to answer in an instant, and looked sideways at the man who had the stick before.

But at this moment, Zhou Heng smiled.

"Ha, interesting. Do you don't know what the deceased is when he dies? For such questions, you also need to ask your brother for advice?"

The magistrate and everyone in the hall looked at Wang.

As Zhou Heng said, since the deceased was discovered, what was the state he was in was not just openly, why did he still have to look at others?

Wang quickly kowtowed, "Mr. The county lord, the civilian woman was a little nervous, and she remembered it now. Yesterday, when she heard the dog barking outside the window, the civilian woman stood up and wanted to go and see it. After holding the light, she found that her husband was motionless and lost breathing. She lay straight on the couch. For a moment, the civilian woman was panicked and ran to the brother and sister-in-law's courtyard to smash the door. The brother came over to see it, and then helped the civilian woman find someone to place her husband in front of the hall. After tomorrow, they carried her husband to the city to argue."

Zhou Heng nodded, "I understand, what you mean is that He Dazhuang was lying on the couch when he died, and then placed it on the door panel to move, and did not make any other flipped movements, right?"

Wang nodded and looked behind him. All the people nodded. Zhou Heng smiled and bowed to the magistrate.

"Sir, the student has finished asking."

After saying that, Zhou Heng walked towards the table on the right, and at a very fast speed, he wrote the contents of the autopsy just now on paper, dried it and pinched it in his palm.

Zhou Yian's hand movements were slower, and he only wrote a few short sentences, and handed them to Captain He and presented them to the magistrate.

The magistrate opened Zhou Yi'an's autopsy results and looked carefully. It was read:

The deceased had soaked in water for a long time and died for more than two days. When he died, he was lying on his knees and had severe effusions in his chest and abdomen, and injured his feet. He dragged and scratched after death. If he was poisoned, he needed to check the symptoms of abdominal dissection and drown.

The magistrate widened his eyes. He did not participate in the previous statement. He would never know the details, but the autopsy was very different from what Wang said.

He looked up at the people standing in the hall. Wang stood with his head down, but one hand was holding his dress. He was so calm.

However, if this case is wrongly judged by me today, it will damage my reputation. The magistrate's eyes were a little angry and cleared his throat and said:

"Ahem, Mr. Zhou, now let me tell you the result in your hands!"

Zhou Heng bowed and said, "Yes, walked to the deceased and said:

"The deceased He Dazhuang, male, about thirty years old, has ascites on his limbs and a lump in his abdomen, and can be touched by lumps in his liver. The liver omegaly is very serious. According to his current state, he cannot eat, cannot swallow, cannot sleep, and abdominal pain and vomiting are the most serious period of death. Unless the lump is removed, ordinary medicine is useless. The cornea of ​​both eyes is completely turbid and gray, and the death of this kind of death will last for more than two days."

Following the explanation, Zhou Heng stretched out the deceased's double eyelids for everyone to see, and then continued.

"The deceased's large joint zombie zombie still exists, while the small joint zombie zombie on the fingers, wrists and jaws have dissipated, which also proves that the deceased has died for more than two days."

Zhou Heng touched the elbow and shoulder of the deceased. The difference in joint movement was clear at a glance. He turned around and looked at Wang and continued.

"The deceased's body has formed, concentrated in the chest, abdomen, thighs and knees, and there are no corpse spots behind it, which means that the deceased becomes a kneeling posture after death, not a flat lie. After death, a person will start at one or two hours. On the side facing the ground, red or purple patches appear on the surface of the skin, so it is called corpse spots. This corpse spot can determine whether the deceased moves after death, and how it is in death."

Zhou Yian cooperated very much and had already walked to Zhou Heng, lifted up his clothes covering the abdomen of the corpse, and the purple-red corpse spot appeared in front of everyone.

Raise your hand and press it hard. When you release it, your skin turns white when you turn it off, but for a moment, the purple-red color is just like the original one and has not changed.

"Besides, this corpse spot is the best evidence to judge the time of death. It reaches its peak after six to eight hours. However, when the corpse is moved and the position is changed, the corpse spots will move with it. Two days later, these corpse spots are completely fixed. You can see that the corpse spots of the deceased are not faded and have not changed their shape, so the deceased He Dazhuang died two days ago."

As soon as this statement came out, Wang looked at Zhou Heng in horror, and Huang Zongming was also a little confused. What does this mean? He has been dead for two days?

Mrs. Wang kept shaking her head.

"No"

Zhou Heng chuckled and nodded slightly to Wang.

"Don't worry, madam, I haven't finished speaking yet!"

Then, Zhou Heng looked at the magistrate and Captain He who were sitting in the hall, walked to the foot of the deceased, and continued.

"The deceased's clothes have been soaked in water for a long time, but the surface is dry and wet inside. Zhou Junzhi just touched it, so he should have some perception. Look at this point, the foot has peeled and turned into a foot cover, and there is a deep cut on the left ankle that can penetrate into the bone. This place is a post-mortem injury without bleeding. There is mud in the wound. There is mud in the pants and soles of the deceased's feet. This mud is delicate and fishy, ​​and green aquatic plants are mixed in it. It should be mud deposited at the bottom of the river pond."

As he said that, Zhou Heng raised a small bamboo stick. The top of the bamboo stick was a very tiny little green. He looked closer and took a look, and sniffed it carefully. It was indeed fishy.

Boss Xue, behind Huang Zongming, tried hard to grasp his arm and control his urge to rush up and smell it.

"The most important point is that there are bubbles that are unique to drowning in the mouth and nose of the deceased, and they surge out after a little pressing. Based on the judgment, the deceased should have drowned, and they drowned two days ago. Let me, the student who said about He Dazhuang's cause of death has finished. You can compare it!"

The magistrate had already stood up and walked out from under the plaque hanging high in the mirror.

He came directly to the deceased, and the bamboo stick was in Captain He's hand. The magistrate took it over and looked at the corpse spots on the deceased's abdomen and the mud.

These things were in front of you. If Zhou Heng hadn't explained carefully, he wouldn't have expected that there would be so much knowledge here. Even Zhou Yi'an had handed in the notes, but they were too general and did not feel so clear at all.

The magistrate threw Zhou Yi'an's notes to Captain He.

"Come and read!"

Captain He read the contents of the note aloud. After listening to Zhou Heng’s explanation just now, there was no need to say more about this content.

Wang was already trembling all over at this time. The people recruited by the clinic came to the same conclusion as the coroner in the county. Even the time of death was fake. What else could I say at this time?

He knelt on the ground and crawled forward for two steps.

"Mr. The magistrate is kind to you. I am an orphan and widowed mother who really has no way to make a living, otherwise I would not have deceived you so much."

As he said that, he kowtowed and banged, and for a moment, blood was seen on his forehead. The magistrate's face was as deep as water, and he slapped the gavel.

"Defying and sarcastic wife, do you know what the crime is for false accusation of others? The person who came"

Zhou Heng was stunned. What was the point of closing the case and verdict?

He quickly took a step forward, the command arrow that the magistrate grabbed was raised, and Zhou Heng bowed and said:

"Sir, the students have not finished their words."

The magistrate was stunned, "Tell me quickly!"

"Yes, just now the student just said that the deceased suspected that it was drowning, but drowning was divided into three categories: self-sightedness, fall into the water and being harmed by others. The deceased was seriously ill and in danger, and the pain of ascites was quite unbearable. But he could go to the clinic for treatment, at least it means that he did not want to find it. When the deceased was autopsy, the student found that there were three fingerprints on the back of the neck of the deceased."

Zhou Yian was shocked. Didn’t he find out just now?

I quickly turned the deceased over and raised his hair. Sure enough, there were three finger marks on the back of the deceased's neck, which were lined up on the left and right, with a faint purple color that could not be discovered without careful discernment.

Zhou Heng stretched out his left hand and gestured here.

"These three fingerprints are exactly the action of a left hand pinching the back of the deceased's neck. Looking at these three fingerprints, my hand cannot touch these three fingerprints at the same time. This person's palm is very large, and his index finger is as long as the middle finger. One does not want to commit suicide, but is pinched and pressed downward. Only one explanation is that he was drowned."

Speaking of this, Zhou Heng looked around everyone on the left.

"Looking around the people present, I think only one person meets the characteristics of this left-handed hand. When he was in front of the clinic, he once held a stick in his left hand to scare everyone. The student had seen his hand, and because of his strange shape, he took a few more glances!"

Huang Zongming and Doctor Ma all looked at the man carrying the stick.

The man was obviously shocked by Zhou Heng's words. Besides, he had not yet realized what Zuo Lishou was. For a moment, he clenched his fist with his left hand, and the knife that was about to move Captain He was already on his neck.

"Don't move, raise your left palm!"
