Doctor entering the police gate

Chapter 13 The Sulfuric Acid Mystery
Yan Junli still had that undead expression: "Are you going? You go, and I'll tell you."

Now Yang Wenbin regretted giving this rotten man anesthesia, gritted his teeth and threw the hemostat into the stainless steel plate, making a crisp sound: "I'll go, you say it!"

Yan Junli immediately showed a triumphant expression, and continued to speak in a leisurely manner: "This is a murder case that also happened in Jiqing District 20 years ago. It was in the red maple forest at that time, and now in the red maple garden. My So I was so impressed with the old sect 20 years ago because of the magnified blackened skeleton in the photo. To be honest, it was not just disfigurement, it was pouring acid over and over again on the face of the dead until It’s only satisfying if you don’t have a human form. The evidence is that the maple trees around the corpse are all dead, and the red leaves are all corroded.”

Yang Wenbin thought: "Then the corpse is the same this time?"

"It's exactly the same." Yan Junli said, "In the case 20 years ago, it was said that the police caught the murderer, but in my opinion, that person was just an illegal seller of sulfuric acid, not a murderer at all—hey, it hurts!"

"Pain?" Yang Wenbin was taken aback.

Yan Junli grinned: "Shoulder, it hurts!"

Yang Wenbin frowned, and looked at the little nurse who was in charge of administering the anesthetic just now.This nurse is an intern nurse, and just now when she was talking to Yan Junli, she forgot to supervise the amount of anesthesia used by the newcomer.Unexpectedly, before the operation was over, the effect of the anesthetic disappeared little by little.

"Doctor Yang, I'm sorry!" The little nurse was startled, and apologized hastily while going to get another bottle of anesthetic.

But at this moment our doctor rolled his eyes and shook his head at the little nurse.Then he pressed down on the lying person, not letting go of the needle and thread in his hand.

"It's because you talk too much nonsense, which made me drag on for so long. Anyway, it's about to be stitched up, so just bear with it for a while."

Then the nurses in the corridor all witnessed Captain Yan's screams like killing a pig.

"Doctor Yang! Be gentler... Ah, can you be gentler!"

"Yang Wenbin! Qing--Wenbin! Binbin! Can't I be wrong about my ancestor Bin! Ah!"

Ten minutes later, Yan Junli, with bandages on his shoulders and twisted face, was pushed out of the operating room. Yang Wenbin took off his blood-stained gloves and came to Yan Junli's ward.

"You really did it to me, you." Yan Junli sat cross-legged on the bed with a wry smile, reaching for the cigarette case on the bedside table.

Yang Wenbin walked over, slapped his hand away, and took the cigarette case away.

"Can you survive the gunshot wound, but can't bear the pain of sutures? Don't make people laugh if you say it, Captain Yan."

Yan Junli shook his head helplessly and laughed: "Okay, okay, let's get down to business, you promised me to investigate the case of Hongfengyuan."

Yang Wenbin let out a "huh", feeling a little dissatisfied in his heart: "Are you working so hard? You are injured like this and you still think about murder. Could it be that the police station won't let you go on leave?"

"Isn't it just a small injury on the shoulder, and it doesn't affect my activities." Yan Junli waved his hand indifferently, "I was given a two-week vacation, but I don't want to just watch TV at home for two weeks. So I'll let Li Hong go to the scene of the murder to investigate first, and then—"

"Captain Yan!" Before Yan Junli finished speaking, Li Hong hurried into the ward with a basket of fruit, "How is the operation going?"

"Don't worry about the operation performed by Dr. Yang." Yan Junli put the fruit basket on the table with his uninjured arm, and then patted Li Hong on the shoulder, "Your movement is very fast, you ran so fast How are you back?"

Li Hong sat down on the hospital bed. Yang Wenbin poured the young man a glass of water. The young man drank it and wiped his mouth. I’ve never been there before, the scenery is really great, no wonder so many people are willing to go there, the red leaves are really beautiful..."

Yang Wenbin rolled his eyes, and interrupted this subordinate who had a problem with the leader: "Get to the point."

"Ah? Oh..." Li Hong paused, "The corpse is really scary. The face must have been splashed with sulfuric acid several times, and it has been burnt beyond recognition. We can only judge her identity from her belongings."

As he spoke, Li Hong took out a photo from his shirt pocket and put it on the table. Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin frowned at the same time.

As Li Hong described, no, photos are much more impactful.The face of the female corpse was scorched black by sulfuric acid, and the whole corpse was lying on the ground in a distorted posture. The deceased must have suffered a lot during her lifetime.The clothes worn by the faceless woman were not ordinary clothes, but a light pink kimono.

"Kimono?" Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin exchanged glances, "Is it Japanese?"

"That's not true." Li Hong said, "This woman is wearing one of the dresses in the kimono, which is called a 'visitor', which is worn on important occasions. I paid special attention to it, Hong Feng In order to allow tourists to fully experience the Japanese style, the garden rents and sells kimonos, and there are such visitors. I then asked the owner with the photo, and the kimono on the deceased was rented from them.”

"The original clothes of the deceased..."

"Well, I thought about it too." Li Hong nodded, "Then I went to check the kimono rental slip for the day, and sure enough, I found the deceased's clothes and belongings, including documents and bank cards. The deceased's name was Xie Fengming. An ordinary white-collar worker in Jiqing District is probably very busy at work, so she likes to visit Red Maple Garden during her break time. From her text messages, it can be known that she came to Red Maple Garden early the morning before the incident, but she disappeared for a whole day God. Early the next morning, he was found dead under the maple tree, the body was covered by thick red leaves, if a tourist found it strange that the leaves were corroded, he would not have found the body.”

Yan Junli nodded: "Xiaohong, it's really hard for you."

Li Hong waved his hand: "It's not hard, it's not hard work, it's my job."

Yang Wenbin had been listening very carefully, and now he was thinking and took an apple out of the fruit basket, peeled it with a fruit knife, and asked: "Then how big is the Red Maple Garden? Is it free to come and go? "

Li Hong nodded: "Entry and exit are free, so anyone can enter, and there are no fences, and it is not a closed attraction. As for how big it is, I don't know it. I just did my job and didn't idle around. It’s a pity to go around.”

Yan Junli turned to look at Yang Wenbin: "How about it, do you want to go?"

Yang Wenbin squinted at him: "You want to run around right after the wound is sewn up? Captain Yan's energy is too high."

Yan Junli smiled instead: "Me? I don't care, but someone is itching already? Just listening to stories and reading materials can't satisfy you anymore?"

Yang Wenbin was dumb: "That's also..."

"Oh, don't worry." Yan Junli added the last straw, "This little injury is not a big problem, just don't move your shoulder, it's fine."

Yang Wenbin hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll accompany you to have a look this afternoon, but you have to follow the doctor's orders, don't think about messing around!"

Yan Junli murmured: "Following the doctor's orders, isn't it just letting me listen to you..."

Yang Wenbin frowned: "What did you say?"

Yan Junli quickly said: "No, I said I will not mess around!"

Li Hong looked at Yan Junli, then at Yang Wenbin, and said, "Then Captain Yan, if I don't have anything to do, I'll go back first, there is still something to do in the bureau."
