Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 775 Forensic

Su Wan was originally a forensic doctor, full of curiosity about the case, and in addition, he wanted to know more about the situation in another world, so he nodded and agreed. The group rushed to the ruined temple, and the strong smell of blood hit them. The deceased was a young woman, lying on her back on the ground, her eyes wide open, her face twisted, and there was a deep strangulation mark on her neck. Su Wan squatted down and carefully observed the body. She habitually wanted to put on gloves, but found that there were no such tools in ancient times. She could only check carefully and found that there seemed to be skin tissue between the nails of the deceased, and there was some white powder at the corners of her mouth. "Captain Lu, the deceased should have been strangled to death, and the time of death was probably between midnight and 12 o'clock last night. These white powders may be important clues. We have to find someone who knows about it to check it out." Su Wan said. Lu Chen looked at Su Wan in surprise: "Miss, you are so proficient in autopsy? These inferences are reasonable and well-founded." Back at the yamen, Lu Chen found the city's coroner, but the coroner couldn't explain the white powder. Su Wan recalled her experience in a modern forensic laboratory and began to think about possible testing methods in ancient times. She borrowed some utensils from Lu Chen and tried to test it by heating and mixing other reagents. She finally determined that the white powder was a highly toxic drug. Just when the case was getting closer, another murder occurred in the city. The victim was also a young woman, and the death was exactly the same as the first case. The occurrence of the two cases made people in the city panic. Su Wan and Lu Chen began to visit and investigate. They found that the two deceased were embroiderers in the embroidery workshop in the city. They were kind and had no grudges with others. When investigating in the embroidery workshop, Su Wan noticed a detail: there was a maid named A Cui in the embroidery workshop. She dodged her eyes and always hesitated when asked about the situation of the deceased. Su Wan and Lu Chen decided to secretly follow A Cui. At night, A Cui sneaked out of the embroidery workshop and walked out of the city. Su Wan and Lu Chen followed from a distance, and saw A Cui came to an abandoned courtyard, looked around, and then slipped in. The two approached quietly and saw through the window that there was another person in the house. The person had his back to them and could not see his face clearly. "Have you done everything?" A hoarse voice came from the house. "All... all done." Ah Cui's voice trembled. "Well done, this is your reward. Remember, keep your mouth shut!" At this moment, a gust of wind blew and blew out the candle in the house. Su Wan and Lu Chen took the opportunity to rush into the house, but found that the person had disappeared long ago, leaving only a handkerchief embroidered with a strange pattern on the table. Su Wan picked up the handkerchief and looked at it carefully, and suddenly remembered that there were similar threads on the clothes of the first victim. They speculated that this handkerchief might be related to the murderer. After asking around, Su Wan learned that this pattern was a unique embroidery pattern of a wealthy family in a neighboring county. Lu Chen took Su Wan and a group of yamen runners to the neighboring county and found the family. This was a wealthy businessman named Wang, with many wives and concubines at home. Su Wan and Lu Chen entered the palace on the pretext of investigating the murder. In the palace, they met Master Wang's favorite concubine, Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu was elegant and well-spoken, but Su Wan keenly noticed a flash of panic in her eyes. Su Wan proposed to check the clothes of the women in the palace, but Aunt Liu tried her best to stop him, which deepened their suspicion. Just when they were at a stalemate, the maid next to Aunt Liu accidentally knocked over the basin, and the water spilled on Aunt Liu's skirt. Su Wan was sharp-eyed and found a fresh scratch on the inside of the skirt, which was very similar to the shape of the deceased's nail. "Aunt Liu, how did this scratch come from?" Su Wan asked. "This... This is just an accidental scratch." Aunt Liu tried to stay calm. Lu Chen ordered people to take Aunt Liu back to the government office for interrogation. At first, Aunt Liu refused to admit it, but after Su Wan's detailed analysis of the evidence, she finally confessed her crime. It turned out that Aunt Liu was also an embroiderer in the embroidery workshop when she was young, and she met and fell in love with Master Wang. But later, for the sake of family interests, Mr. Wang married the daughter of a wealthy businessman as his principal wife, and gradually neglected Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu was resentful and thought that it was the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop who seduced Mr. Wang, so she planned to kill them and bribed A Cui as an accomplice. The case was solved, and the people in the city cheered. Lu Chen's admiration for Su Wan became deeper and deeper. He invited Su Wan to stay in the government office to help solve the case. Su Wan was already very interested in ancient detective cases, and didn't know how to return to the modern era, so he agreed. Since then, Su Wan and Lu Chen have joined forces to solve one strange case after another. There are murders caused by property disputes, murders disguised by witchcraft, and serial murders caused by emotional entanglements. Every time, Su Wan relied on modern forensic knowledge and keen observation to unravel the truth. During an investigation of a floating corpse in a lake, the deceased had been completely unrecognizable and difficult to identify. Su Wan used the skull restoration knowledge learned in modern times to measure and analyze the skull of the deceased and drew the approximate appearance of the deceased before his death. With this portrait, they quickly found the family of the deceased and cracked the case. As they got along, Su Wan and Lu Chen gradually developed a different feeling. However, Su Wan always had a question in her heart: Can she go back to the modern times? She often thought of her modern family and friends, and she would miss the advanced technology and convenient life. One night, Su Wan stood alone on the city wall, staring at the starry sky in a daze. Suddenly, a familiar lightning flashed across the sky, Su Wan's eyes went black, and she lost consciousness again... When she woke up again, she found herself back in the modern emergency room, still wearing a white coat covered with mud. Colleagues surrounded her with a worried look on their faces. "Su Wan, why did you faint suddenly?" Su Wan looked at the familiar environment, as if she were in another world. She touched her pocket, and the handkerchief embroidered with strange patterns found in ancient times was still there. She knew that the experience of traveling through ancient times to solve a case would become the most unforgettable memory of her life. And the relationship between her and Lu Chen would always remain in that distant time and space, becoming the most beautiful secret in her heart. The story depicts the wonderful experience of traveling through ancient times to solve a case, with ups and downs in the plot.
