2069 Chapter 2068-situation
“I remember that you’re Xiao Qiu’s record keeper, right? You’re called Zhang Bing right?” Gu Xin asked after she got into the car.
“Princess, I am Zhang Bing.” Zhang Bing didn’t expect Gu Xin to still remember him and replied happily.
He had come to the capital with Zheng Qiu and had only started learning how to be a coroner by his side last year. He was not familiar with the capital’s official language, but he tried to speak slowly so that others could understand.
Gu Xin lowered her head and looked at her dress. Damn, she had forgotten to change into men’s clothes. She couldn’t force people to call her master in a dress, so Gu Xin could only let Zhang Bing call her third miss.
It wasn’t that she didn’t like the title of Princess Xinxin, but it was just that there were a lot of troublesome formalities when people called her Princess. She didn’t like it because it was too troublesome.
“Alright, third miss.” Zhang Bing readily accepted her advice and told Gu Xin the general situation, ” third miss, the corpse was found this afternoon. It was found in the well in the song family’s courtyard at xima alley in the west of the city. The row of houses in this alley belonged to the song family. The master lived in the innermost House. There was only a widowed mother and son. Master Song was a student who was preparing to participate in the general examination this year. The mother and son made a living by collecting rent. The house where the body was found was the one that had just signed the lease yesterday. They were cleaning up the yard today and smelled a strange smell coming from the well. The well was abandoned and there was no water under it. The tenant was a family of three. She was also a widowed mother with her son, but she had a daughter-in-law. The family’s surname was Liang. This young master Liang was also a student. He was preparing to participate in the general examination in September this year and had come to live in the capital in advance. Master Liang went down to the well and found the body, then he reported it to the government. This is all I know for now.”
“Have you moved the bodies up?” Gu Xin asked.
“Young master Liang came to report the case and didn’t move it up. Master Liang had tied a rope to the well above the tree in the yard. He said he couldn’t get people up. According to the appearance of the body, Mr. Zheng speculated that the victim has been dead for at least four days.” Zhang Bing suddenly thought of something. Mr. Zheng said that even though it’s spring and the weather is getting warmer, it’s still quite cold down there. So, it must have been more than four days.
Zhang Bing, you’ve been with Xiao Qiu for a year. Do you know how to determine the time of death? ” Gu Xin asked curiously.
She had only recently become interested in it, so she did not know about it. Gu Ren’s story emphasized that he was a super detective, not a coroner. Therefore, he did not mention much about the coroner’s autopsy. He only mentioned some information obtained by the coroner, and the Super detective made his judgment based on the case.
“I know most of them, but I don’t know the complicated ones. For example, a natural death or a simple murder could be judged by the degree of stiffness of the body and livor mortis. However, if the murderer had used something else like ice or fire, I don’t know how to judge. However, young master Zheng taught me how to judge the approximate age from the bones.” Zhang Bing said.
“Ah, you can even judge age? I thought we could only judge by gender!” Gu Xin was shocked.
“I only found out about it after I followed young master Zheng.” Zhang Bing said.
Xiao Qiu knows so much. She looks to be the same age as me! Gu Xin sighed.
“Third young lady, young master Zheng is two years older than third young lady!” Zhang Bing said. Many people already knew Gu Xin’s Age and Birthday.
