Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 168 Digging Up Graves! [A long chapter of 4,000 words!]

"Digging up graves!?"

In an instant.

Everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment. Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu looked at each other, both seeing the shock brewing in each other's eyes.

These two words were something they never expected.
Let's set aside whether it violates morality.

Whether the body can survive after being dug up is a question mark!
for example.

Imagine you are a parent with a lively and cheerful child, but one day your child dies in a mysterious way.

Unfortunately, you can't find any evidence of death, so you can only hastily bury the body, but you are still very sad.

In this situation, someone suddenly dug up your child's grave, took him to a burial site, and hacked the body to pieces with a knife.
What would you do in this situation?
"Not to mention that this is the countryside, and all our relatives and friends live together."

"If we really try to dig up the grave, and we get caught, at the very least we'll be stopped by the entire village!"

Yang Ruoxi repeatedly tried to persuade her.

People are quite tough these days.

Let alone Xu Liang, even the police can't dig up the grave!

Do you think Zhao Qian would dare to forcibly dig up the grave?
Even if he had a gun, it wouldn't be effective!
If anyone dares to dig, the entire village will surround the area instantly. Zhao Qian's attitude became slightly agitated. A fight between the two sides would be inevitable!

This is not a joke.

Let alone now, even in future generations, if the police want to arrest someone in a remote village, they have to go there quietly at night.

Let's not even talk about whether the person can be taken away if they just swagger over there.

I might even stay there!
If this is how they treat the police, imagine how they treat a few young lawyers.

"Senior brother, how about we call it quits?"

Su Yu said softly, "Let's think of another way."

"no!"

"It's been dragging on for too long!"

Xu Liang flatly rejected the idea; his mind was in a whirlwind of thoughts, a jumble of complex ideas swirling within him.

He now has a vague sense of anxiety.

The anxiety came inexplicably, yet it kept urging him on, preventing him from calming down, as if being slow would have dire consequences.
Especially with the arrival of Liu Kun.

The other party offered him four million to keep him out of this matter.
Four million.

Four million in 04!
This isn't the kind of emotional entanglement that Duan Jianhao experienced, where he kept spending money on Duan Feipeng.

It's simply a dispute over interests!
in other words.

Liu Kun offering four million to help cover up the case only indicates the seriousness of the case.
Far exceeding four million!!!
"The grave must be dug up!"

Xu Liang's eyes narrowed.

An autopsy must be performed.

After saying that, he didn't hesitate any longer. He stood up, gave up the idea of ​​sleeping, picked up his clothes, and went outside.

"Chaozi, come with me."

With that, Xu Liang hurriedly walked outside.

This kind of issue involves physical disputes
He wouldn't bring the two girls with him, just like when he sneaked into the funeral home before.

But seeing that he was about to leave...

Yang Ruoxi was getting a little anxious.

She stood up abruptly and called out to the person.

"Then what should we do?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang, who had already reached the door, paused, turned around, and looked at the two of them.
What can the other party do at this stage?
Xu Liang fell into deep thought.

Before he knew it, Liu Kun appeared in his mind.

It was obvious that the other side was keeping an eye on Huangyan Village; otherwise, there would be no reason why they would have investigated his background and identity, and even found out where he was staying, after only one day in the village.
The other party knew us very well, and was even certain that the waters in Sunzhou City were murky and that a lawyer like myself couldn't stir them up.

And myself.
Yet they knew nothing about the other party!
"You two go and investigate the surface-level things first."

"For example, the case concerning Liu Kun, and who the other party is working for."

Once Xu Liang made up his mind, an idea immediately came to him.

He immediately addressed the two girls, giving them instructions:
"Investigate the company behind the other party."

"Hmm, if possible, check if this company has any records of being sued by others."

As the saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

How many enemies does Liu Kun's boss have?

Xu Liang didn't know.

However, such a large-scale and prolonged death of others would never be the result of only one person investigating the other party!

and so.

Friends are always a good thing!

Tell me immediately if you have any news!

After Xu Liang finished speaking, he turned around and ran outside with Wang Chao.

time does not wait.

It's already 11:30 PM, a dark and windy night, the perfect time to commit murder, dig up graves, and perform autopsies!

The two quickly got into the car.

Without hesitation, Xu Liang stepped on the gas, turned around, and drove towards Huangyan Village.

Hotel entrance.

The two girls watched the car disappear until even its shadow was no longer visible before turning their gaze away.

"What do we do now?"

Su Yu looked at Yang Ruoxi and asked in a low voice.

She has only ever defended Wu Yong, and in this aspect of investigation, she clearly lacks a lot of experience compared to Yang Ruoxi.

Yang Ruoxi pondered for a moment, then her eyes narrowed and an idea came to her mind.

"Go to court!"

Generally, it is easy to investigate the cases a lawyer and a company have handled.

For example, the 'China Judgments Online' website, which was officially launched in 13, provides access to a wide range of detailed court hearing materials.

The lawsuits the company is involved in can be found directly using the mini-program.

It wasn't that convenient in 2005, but you could still find out by going to the court!

"Go to court?"

Su Yu was startled.

She was perceptive and immediately realized what would happen if she went to court.

"The police are suppressing the news. Won't going to court alert them?" she worried.

"will not."

Yang Ruoxi shook her head.

Even if they go to court, it will only attract attention and may even cover for Xu Liang!

After all, what the other party needs to do
"That's what's truly shameful!"

There are techniques involved in digging up graves.

If one of them doesn't dig properly, the villagers might kill themselves!

Therefore, Xu Liangcai decided to dig under the cover of night!

but.
Not everyone's grave is dug up.

"Buzz!"

The car was driving on a country road.

Two bright beams of headlights pierced the eerie, deathly darkness.

The roar of the engine gradually approached Huangyan Village.

Not long after, the car stopped in front of a self-built house where a funeral was being held.

"Snapped!"

The two quickly got out of the car.

Xu Liang looked up at Sun Zhongmin's house.

Last time I came, it was in the afternoon, and there were quite a few people, including many villagers who came to give gifts.

And now.
Although the light bulb was still on, not a single person could be seen.

Only the bouquets used for the funeral and the smell in the air remain.

"Da da."

Xu Liang led his men straight inside.

Inside the mourning hall, Sun Jin's coffin was still in the main hall, and three or four people were lying asleep on the ground next to it.

Sun Zhongmin leaned against the coffin, seemingly in a daze, and it was unclear whether he was asleep.

Xu Liang approached and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

"Boom!"

Sun Zhongmin was startled awake. He opened his eyes and saw a pair of bloodshot, scarlet eyes.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Xu Liang in front of him.

He paused for a moment, a hint of anticipation suddenly appearing in his eyes.

"Attorney Xu, you've come to me now because there's a lead in my son's case!?"

Sun Zhongmin's tone carried a hint of excitement. Xu Liang nodded, but did not give a definite answer. Instead, he glanced at the sleeping people around him, pondered for a moment, and then led Sun Zhongmin to the side.

It's obvious that Liu Kun is monitoring Huangyan Village.

Who knows who the person who tipped them off was? They might just be pretending to be asleep next to the coffin!
The two walked into the courtyard.

Sun Zhongmin could no longer suppress his excitement and whispered:

"Attorney Xu, could you tell me about my son now?"

As he spoke, his lips suddenly moved, but he couldn't continue, or perhaps he didn't know what to say.

Xu Liang replied:

"From the current perspective, Sun Jin's death is indeed problematic, and the problems are very serious!"

His expression was serious and his demeanor earnest.

The attitude of the municipal police, Liu Kun, and even the images presented of the body all indirectly confirm the seriousness of the burial matter.

Sun Zhongmin's suspicions were correct.

His son's death was indeed unusual!
"Who killed my son?!"

Sun Zhongmin's eyes turned bloodshot in an instant, and his hands clenched into fists.

Xu Liang remained silent.

He simply pulled a few photos out of his briefcase.

The night was dark, and the photos were not visible in the courtyard, but he took out a flashlight.

"Snapped!"

The moment the flashlight shone, the image of Sun Jin's death in the photograph appeared before Sun Zhongmin.

Looking at the photos.

Looking at the corpse of his own son, who just a few months ago had called him and called him "Dad" so clearly.

Sun Zhongmin's lips trembled, and his eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

At this moment, Xu Liang pointed to the photo and said:

"According to the hospital, Sun Jin died of an acute heart attack."

"Generally speaking, heart disease is caused by genetic inheritance, congenital defects, infection, and overuse."

"but"

talking.

Xu Liang paused for a moment, then took out several other photos and showed them to the other person one by one.

These photos are what we noticed about the problem in a short period of time.

These include the thin bluish-black lines between the gums, the erosion marks at the base of the tongue, the edema on the limbs and forehead, and the purple discoloration on the fingernails and lips.

Even the pale yellow color on the skin's surface!
These reactions do not meet any of the four criteria for heart disease!
On the contrary, like
"Poisoned!"

Xu Liang revealed the truth.

In an instant, Sun Zhongmin's pupils contracted, and he seemed to be unable to control his actions.

Fortunately, Xu Liang helped him calm down quickly.

“Mr. Sun, this is just speculation at the moment. It is also possible that Sun Jin died for other reasons.”

"But in any case, I need verification now, I need an autopsy report to verify my guesses!"

Xu Liang spoke seriously.

As he spoke each word carefully, Sun Zhongmin gradually calmed down.

Over the past month, he has tried many methods to retrieve the body, but all to no avail.

Now that Xu Liang has arrived, he has found the body in just one day. Naturally, he trusts him completely!

“I’ll do the autopsy, I’ll sign the contract!” Sun Zhongmin immediately agreed.

Xu Liang said, "Sun Jin's body is not in my hands now, so your agreement is useless!"

No. Not here?

Sun Zhongmin was slightly taken aback.

In other words, the police did not agree to Xu Liang taking the body back?

Where did you get those photos from?

Before he could react, Xu Liang spoke again:

"Exhume the body and examine the corpse!"

His expression was serious and earnest.

"Find someone who died in a similar manner to Sun Jin, but whose body is still intact, and conduct an autopsy!"

“Mr. Sun, you are not the only victim’s family member in Huangyan Village.”

"At the very least, you need to find another close relative of the deceased, that is, their parents or children, so that an autopsy can be performed on the body!"

Hear the words.

Sun Zhongmin understood. He lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

The other party will most likely be able to find the person.

Why do you think that way?

Because the one million yuan commission fee was not raised by Sun Zhongmin alone!
It was the entire village that contributed the money, with several major contributors, including people whose children had recently died!

Judging from the fact that they paid money, the other party also had grievances about the child's death!
Getting them to cooperate is, of course, extremely easy.

If the other party truly disagrees, then Xu Liang can only...
Thinking about this, Xu Liang began to calculate the probability of being caught digging up graves in secret.

Fortunately, Sun Zhongmin's words soon dispelled his idea.

“Four months ago, Zhao Shan’s son died, you see,” Sun Zhongmin said.

Four months ago
That is, Sun Jin was the last victim to die!
"Where is he?"

Xu Liang's eyes lit up.

Four months is enough time to perform a full autopsy on the body in this weather!

Sun Zhongmin did not hesitate.

He went straight into the mourning hall and gently woke up one of the sleeping middle-aged men.

The middle-aged man was thin and looked to be in his fifties or sixties, but he was actually only forty.

Sun Zhongmin whispered something to the bewildered Zhao Shan, and then Zhao Shan was pulled over.

"Attorney Xu, can you catch the murderer!?"

Zhao Shan excitedly grasped Xu Liang's hand; his hands were incredibly strong, quite unlike his withered appearance.

"We can't guarantee it, but an autopsy is necessary to find out the truth!"

Xu Liang explained in a low voice.

"What is an autopsy?" Zhao Shan asked, somewhat confused.

"It's just like giving a corpse a physical examination!"

Xu Liang explained again, and Zhao Shan understood this time, but not completely.

He simply stated his point clearly.

"Sun Jin's body is being held by the police, so we can't do anything. What I mean is, Brother Zhao, your child..."

Zhao Shan's child was the one who choked on his soda and died of an acute heart attack.

At the time, Zhao Shan felt that he was cursed by the heavens.

So they took the body directly from the hospital and buried it hastily.

But who would have thought that just over two months later, Sun Jin would also die mysteriously.
Even the dumbest person can sense now that there's definitely something wrong here!

"What I mean is, take the child."

Xu Liang's eyes were resolute as he stared at Zhao Shan. "Dig him out of his grave!"

"Dig it out!?"

Zhao Shan's lips trembled.

As a father, he didn't want to dig it up.

But there are problems with the child's cause of death.
"Are we really going to dig?"

Zhao Shan felt a little suffocated.

He didn't know how to face his child.

He'd been dead for four months, and his body was probably already decomposed. I reckon he'd break down and cry uncontrollably after being dug out.

"We must dig!"

Xu Liang spoke up.

We must dig.
Zhao Shan felt a tremor in his heart, and his resolve wavered slightly.

until
Xu Liang's last words became the final straw that broke the camel's back.

"Uncle Zhao, look, this is what Sun Jin looked like after he died."

He directly displayed Sun Jin's photo.

"If your child is like this, then I can tell you that the probability of death from poisoning is extremely high!"

Death from poisoning.

In other words, it was murder!?
Did he die mysteriously, becoming a confused ghost, or should we dig him up and investigate the truth?
Zhao Shan remained silent for a long time, and then his face turned ferocious.

He said:

"dig!!!"
