Mom rolled over to reveal a white face soaked in hot spring water. Her eyes were wide open and her eyeballs were almost popping out of their sockets. Her eyes were bloodshot and her mouth was slightly open as if she wanted to say something. This terrifying face scared the little girl so much that she let out a miserable shriek. Her whole body seemed to flee for her life as she crawled out of the pool, sitting blankly by the pool and staring at her mother's terrifying face.
Several security guards were attracted by her scream and quickly brought the corpse up before calling the doctor to report the case. The police and the doctor arrived at the scene in a flash, but they did their best and came to a surprisingly simple and consistent conclusion: accidental death.
I took a copy of the autopsy report Niuniu handed me and frowned at her. "The police and doctors said it was an accident. What are you doing here?" Do you know what kind of place this is? "
Niu Niu cried as she said, "I was dreaming, and I dreamed that my mother was talking to me while her body was still wet. She told me to go to Baxian Hotel to find someone and that this was the only place I could help her. She also asked me to bring this. " As the little girl spoke, she took off the backpack on her back and emptied it onto the ground. I was stunned. Ten thousand dollars a bundle, five or six full bundles, a handful of change from ten to five, a dozen bank cards, and a small china hog can. Niuniu cried and pointed to the things on the ground and said to me, "Mom said it was expensive here, so she asked me to bring more money. I went home and found all the money I could find. I just want you to save my mother. "
I handed the copy to Gouer and squatted in front of the little girl, "Little girl, we don't need your money. Because we can't do anything about you. I can only care about things that I don't understand, do you understand? "
When Niuniu heard this, she squatted on the ground and wailed loudly. I sighed and shook my head as I stood up. I had seen too many people in this situation. Many people's families were in trouble, and sometimes they were worried about the police and doctors' conclusions. They had come to visit me. He couldn't say it was 100%, but 99% of it was just his imagination. I actually understand what the family members are thinking, but if we have to rely on this to clear up the cause of death, then there's no need for me to do anything else with my Baxian Hotel.
I was about to step behind the counter when someone grabbed my arm. I turned my head to see Gouer, whose eyes were also completely red. I asked her curiously, "Sister Gou, what's wrong with you?"
Gouer's eyes reddened a little as she stared at me. "Fourth Boss, this is still a child."
I shook my head. "The case is clear, the cause of death clear. "It's not that kind of thing, we can't do anything about it."
Gouer lowered his head and did not say anything, but she still held onto my hand tightly. After a long time, he raised his head, and a determined look appeared in her eyes, "It's so late, at least let's send her home. Take another look, I'll go. I don't want money this time. "
"Ugh." I sighed and walked back to the little girl. I put the bank card and the wads of bills back on her shoulders and picked up the change on the floor. "But I did say that I was just going to take a look. It doesn't matter if there's a problem or not, this money will not be refunded."
Seeing that the little girl seemed to understand and nodding her head, I patted the change in my hand to Gouer, "If one's heart can understand, then the rules cannot be messed up. "Let's go, I'll drive you guys."
I first went to the crematorium's autopsy center. I greeted them and left Niuniu in the office. With the help of the medical examiner on duty, I successfully found the body of Niuniu's mother. The woman who was a gentle mother last night was now lying naked on the cold corpse bed. Her eyes and mouth had been closed by the medical examiner long time ago, and she seemed to have fallen asleep quietly. Her skin was white and smooth, not at all like it had been when she had a baby. Gouer placed a hand on top of her head, closed her eyes and quietly stood there for a while, then turned his head and said, "I don't feel anything unusual." I shook my head and started flipping through more detailed information on the scene. There were no signs of movement, no trauma, no killing, no suicides in a good family situation … On the other side, Gouer carefully examined the corpse's hair and fingers, trying to find a trace of possibility.
The on-duty medical examiner at the side had an impatient look on his face. He guessed that it was true. They had carefully checked it several times already, so how could they miss anything? I started a second autopsy on the phone call to his leader, and that was a little disrespectful of them. At that moment, I noticed several black spots on the body's right ankle. I turned to the medical examiner and asked him if he had suspected that he had sprained and twisted his ankle at the bottom of the hot spring pool.
As I spoke, I gently measured the position of the black spots with my hand. It always felt like the imprint of a hand. Gouer put his hand on her ankle, and before she could close her eyes, she immediately nodded at me and said, "There's a problem!"
"Is there a way?" I asked
Gouer frowned, she placed her hand on the black spots. After a few minutes, she removed her hand, and a black handprint appeared on the corpse's ankle.
"How could this be?" The medical examiner on duty was so shocked that he asked me in bewilderment
I smiled. "In the countryside, there is a saying that if someone drowns in the water, there will be a water ghost. If the water ghost wants to reincarnate, it will have to catch a living person as a substitute." The most obvious feature of the person who was caught by the water ghost and used as a substitute was that the place where she was captured left a ghost handprint. " Gouer coordinated and pointed to the black palm print, and at the same time, purposely lit up her own white palm.
The on-duty medical examiner squinted at me. "How is that possible? Is this pure feudal superstition?"
I didn't continue the conversation and politely shook his hand to say my farewells. Then, I tossed aside the blank looking Medical Examiner on duty and took Gouer and Niu Niu back to the Hot Springs Inn.
The Hot Springs was on the outskirts of town, and by the time we got there it was dawn. Recently, this hotspring hotel is quite popular. It isn't strange for people to come here early in the morning. However, when we asked about Niu Niu's mother who died here yesterday, the security guard immediately became alert. "Who are you?"
I brought Niuniu out of the car. "We're the children's uncles and aunts, and my sister's gone, so we want to take a look."
When the security guard saw Niuniu, his expression eased a lot, but his words did not stop. "The police case is already closed. The accidental death has nothing to do with our hotel. You'll have to find our leader for compensation."
I accompanied with a smile, "If you say that, then we just want to see the place where my sister was killed." Besides, if we wanted to cause trouble, why didn't we just find a lot of people and get up this early in the morning? I was just trying to reduce the negative impact on you. "
The security guard nodded, "You guys look pretty pitiful too. Let me show you." "It's an agreement. We'll leave after taking a look."
After walking a few steps with the security guards, I felt a pain on my waist, and turned around to see that it was Gouer's two fingers arguing. Before I could say anything, she opened her mouth first: "Fourth Boss, you've grown bold, you dare to take advantage of me?"
I endured the pain and begged in a low voice, "Aiyo ~" I dare to offend your big brother Hun. "
After hearing me out, Gouer rolled her eyes at me again, and then decided to just drop the matter.
This hot spring hotel's hot spring area was not small. In the middle of it was a huge hot spring pool with a radius of thirty to fifty meters. I curiously asked the security guard, "Big brother, why is the warm spring water so yellow? "He looks really dirty."
The security guard looked at me with disdain, "This is called sulfur hot spring, this water is heated up from the gaps between ten thousand years of sulfur rock, it's especially good for the body …" After listening to the first few words, I lost interest in the contents of the brochures behind him.
After a few turns, I felt like I had walked for a long time. Finally, I reached a very remote place. The security guard pointed to a very small pond and said to me, "Hey, this is it."
I walked over to the edge of the pool and looked in. It was small enough to hold four people at once, and the most obvious point was that the water in the pool was clear enough that I could see the bottom of the pool from the edge.
"How deep is the water?" I asked the guard.
The security guard didn't even think about "1.2 meters".
"An adult up to the waist?" Gouer asked from the side.
"Yeah, it's hard to drown even if you want to. Who would've thought …" The security guard was about to continue, but he stopped himself when he saw the rims of Niuniu's eyes.
"Then why is it only this pool that has clear water?" I asked the security guard curiously
The security guard scratched his head, "The leader said it's to meet the different needs of the customers. It's just that the yellow soup isn't good, so we have to get clear water."
As we chatted, Gouer walked up a few steps and squatted by the side of the pool. She slowly reached her hand into the pool to gently poke at the water, and after a long while, she raised his head and looked at me, and gently shook his head.
The three of them returned to the entrance. Just as they wanted to thank the security guards, they suddenly saw a few security guards running towards the hot spring area in a hurry. Then, voices came from the walkie-talkies of the security guards beside them. Fire Speed Support! "
