Chapter 475 The Magical Duo

Although Li Yi had some guesses in his mind, he still said the same thing. He would not have any explanation until there was no evidence.

Although the coroner of this era is equal to the forensic doctor of later generations, there is still a big difference. In addition to examining traces, the forensic doctor of later generations can basically dissect the cause of the dead body. Although it can also be dissected in this era, most coroners will not do this. After all, they are also afraid that non-essential dissecting will have any adverse effects on themselves.

Li Qing knew that he could not change these deeply rooted things that had been formed over the years, but he also understood that even in the coroner industry, there was a difference between seriousness and unseriousness. Li Qing didn't believe that there was no one in the coroner of the Tang Dynasty who had rich experience and could find something wrong.

In fact, if there is a condition, Li Ning really wants to take all these corpses to Chang'an City for personal inspection.

However, in this era, there were no advanced cold storages. Even if the body was pulled to Chang'an City, I didn't know what it would rot in such a hot climate. So what Li could do now is wait for the result and wait for a person who is outstanding in the coroner industry to help him solve his doubts.

Although this matter is still a big mystery, Li Yi also understands that once someone who can answer questions and answer questions appears, he may gain another talent. Real talents often only need to be discovered through major events or tempering.

For example, when Dongmu captured Zhang Chong, the general of the Central Army, even if the territory of the Tang Dynasty was already in a bad way, Chang'an and Luoyang were lost, and the soldiers under his command had lost even the military pay. He still led his team to guard the two warships of the Tang Dynasty on the rarely visited beach in Henan Province.

Such a person may be a little stupid or a little bit, but even if he is killed, he will not betray the Tang Dynasty. Li Qing knew very well, so he always maintained the position of Zhang Chong as a general of the Central Army. He could train him later. However, this attitude cannot be found by just finding a general from the Tang Dynasty. Li Qing knew that even if he found all the generals of the Tang Dynasty, there would be no more than ten people who could withstand the test like Zhang Chong.

Li Qing waited for more than ten days after this wait.

On this day, Xu Yuan hurried to Tai Chi Palace. Although it was Li Qing's dinner time, he still made people understand.

"What's wrong with Xu Xiang? Could it be that the death of a large number of salt officials has reached a new point?"

Li Neng knew that Xu Yuan was not a person who was not serious. Since he could come here at this time, it means that the clues he found must be quite important.

Sure enough, before Xu Yuan could get to the place, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Li Ren and said, "Your Majesty, please see, this is the news submitted by a coroner in a county town on Henan Road. This person has been in this business for more than ten years. He has handled the bodies of two salt officials in succession. According to him, these two salt officials were strangled to death first, and then disguised themselves as suicide, and it should have been done by the same person!"

After hearing Xu Yuan's simple reward, Li Li first put his heart half in his stomach because the people he had been waiting for appeared.

In fact, this letter was written by the local county magistrate. Before, he said that it was difficult to investigate the case with the people in the county. Li Qing skipped it directly, and the middle part was what the coroner said.

According to him, because there were no coroners in the neighboring counties, but both bodies were all passed by his hands. If one corpse was seen alone, it would be similar to hanging himself. However, when the two corpses were placed side by side, the difference was a little prominent.

According to the coroner, there is a characteristic when this murderer strangled someone, that is, because the murderer was not tall, when facing a salt merchant who was basically full of intestines, he almost always tried from bottom to top, which caused asymmetrical tear marks on both sides of the neck, and there were subtle differences.

Based on the ropes found in the two dead salt governments, the coroner's statement is that it is impossible to cause such a result by hanging himself. And a more serious flaw is that a rope found in the salt government cannot withstand his fat body's dying struggle on it, so it must have been hung up after death.

The coroner's words were reasonable and well-founded. After reading them, Li Qing nodded repeatedly. Of course he knew that Xu Yuan must have discovered that this information was quite credible and sent it to him as soon as possible.

"Very good! Very good! Xu Xiang, please send an order to order the coroner to the center of Henan Road. He will check all the bodies that can be obtained. After checking ten, let him go directly to Chang'an City. You and I will meet him in person. By the way, this matter is kept secret. I will give you fifty imperial guards to be responsible for the safety of this person!"

"My minister, take the order."

A small coroner had uploaded two autopsy reports that he thought were ordinary, and was directly protected by fifty imperial guards. This was definitely not a trivial matter.

Although this incident was carried out secretly, the prefect and county magistrate of the prefectures and counties where the coroner was located still knew. They did not understand why Li Yan attached so much importance to the death of a few salt officials who should have died, nor did they understand why such a small coroner suddenly received so much attention.

The coroner is named Zhao Pu. He is in his thirties. Because his father is a coroner, he has no other ability. Although he has been studying for several years, he is still very different from being famous in the exam. In the end, he can only inherit his father's business at a young age.

But Zhao Pu has a characteristic, that is, he is very serious about his work. Other coroners examine the bodies just a formality, but he must examine them carefully. In such a small county town, he has more murders than any detective.

But because he often opened his body without the permission of his family, he had no choice but to break his stomach. With his stubborn personality, he had never had a good relationship with others. Moreover, coronership in this era was not a high-end profession. Over the past ten years, Zhao Pu still had the same way as when he took over, until fifty imperial guards suddenly arrived outside his house.
