Cui Hao, who was sinking into the river, vaguely saw floating clothes under a few rocks near the river bank. He felt excited and swam over immediately.
It was a woman with flying long hair. Cui Hao felt a surge of emotion in his heart. He stretched out his hand to lift the woman's hair, and a face with a bloody face immediately came into view.
Cui Hao saw that his body was unstable and almost sank into the river. He finally managed to stabilize his body and reached out to pull the woman's body.
The woman's leg was pinned under the boulder, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull it out.
Miss Yan Si's appearance appeared in Cui Hao's mind.
She smiled at him and stretched out her hands to hug him. He never thought that someone could be so happy about him after being despised so much. She seemed to know what he wanted and would give him warmth without hesitation every time.
But if she died like this and turned into a cold corpse, he didn't know what he would do or what he would do.
Cui Hao used all his strength to move the stone, but for some unknown reason, he should be able to move the stone easily in normal times, but now the stone did not move at all under his arm.
The clothes floating in the river brushed against his face, as if Miss Yan Si was beside him.
That would be her.
The figure was very similar to Miss Yan Si. Cui Hao stared at that face carefully and vaguely discerned his familiar eyebrows from the blurry face. All the blood in his body was drained out in an instant.
, he also became as cold as the body of Miss Yan Si.
She encountered an accident when she escaped from Yan's house. She was beaten to death and thrown into the river. Her body was stuck in the crevices of the rocks. Maybe she was still alive at that time, but she could not escape from here.
How scared she must be.
He had to take her out of here no matter what. Cui Hao once again moved the stone with force. The stone seemed to move a little. He immediately reached out to pull the arm of the corpse.
The body was pulled out a little bit, but it still didn't completely break free from the crack in the stone.
Cui Hao held the pale arm and clearly saw the scars on it. The wounds seemed to hit the tip of his heart, completely defeating his last hope.
When he saw her at the Xu family, he had already discovered the scars on her arms and knew in his heart that the Yan family must have beaten her. It was at that moment that he made up his mind to take her away from the Yan family.
After hearing what he said, she had an expression of joy on her face. Maybe it was at that time that she made up her mind to leave the Yan family first so as not to cause trouble to him.
It was he who killed her.
But now, he couldn't even take her body out of the river. In this case, he would stay with her.
Thinking of this, Cui Hao hugged the corpse, then opened his mouth and nose, and rushed the cold river water into his body. The feeling of drowning was uncomfortable, but the pain made him feel relaxed, as if in his heart
The wounds were healed somewhat.
I'm here to accompany you, don't be afraid.
Cui Hao closed his eyes.
…
Wan Rong's cry rang out from the river: "Brother, come and save me."
Brothers Wanrong and Wansheng sank into the river again. They stepped forward to pull Cui Hao, but Cui Hao's arms refused to let go. Just when they were extremely anxious, they saw a figure swimming over.
, go and move the stone next to you.
The Wan brothers understood and immediately went to help. Finally, the female corpse broke free from the stone. The three of them pushed Cui Hao and the female corpse out of the water.
The Wan brothers kept calling Cui Hao. Cui Hao had his eyes closed tightly and his face was pale. He looked lifeless at this moment.
Wan Sheng kept shaking Cui Hao, and Wan Rong knelt on the ground in tears, not knowing what to do.
"What are you still doing? Help me save people."
A voice exploded in his ears, and Wan Rong came back to his senses.
Uncle Lei opened Cui Hao's mouth and nose and reached out to press Cui Hao's abdomen, but Cui Hao was entangled with the female corpse. He couldn't make a move for a while. When he saw that the Wan brothers were in chaos, he hurriedly shouted.
Cui Hao vaguely heard someone speaking in his ear, and felt as if his chest was about to explode. A mouthful of water spurted out of his mouth and nose, and then the scene in front of him gradually became clearer.
There were several faces in front of him, including brothers from the Wan family and a middle-aged man who looked familiar yet unfamiliar.
Cui Hao didn't have time to think carefully. He immediately looked at Miss Yan Si in his arms, but found that her arms were empty. He struggled to sit up from the ground, looked around, and finally found the body on the ground not far away.
There were several people standing next to the corpse, one of whom Cui Hao knew was Miss Xu.
Cui Hao stood up with all his strength and rushed over. He had just determined that it was Miss Yan Si, and now he wanted to take a closer look.
There were people around him trying to dissuade him, and some people were pulling him, but Cui Hao didn't care. With his blood-red eyes open, he rushed to the body like a crazy beast and hugged the body again.
Seeing Cui Hao's appearance, Mrs. Chang sighed and said, "The deceased is dead. It is very important to find the cause of her death and catch her murderer. If you touch the body casually like this, you will destroy the evidence left by the murderer."
"
Cui Hao seemed not to hear anything. He just looked at the bloody face in his arms and stretched out his hand to touch the scars on the corpse's face.
"Stop," Madam Chang said sternly, "You are hurting her by doing this."
Harm her? Cui Hao raised his head blankly and met Mrs. Chang's calm eyes with a hint of anger.
"What are you going to do?"
Cui Hao's eyes fell on the ground, where there was an open green cloth baggage, with large and small knives, bamboo sticks, bottles and jars placed in the baggage.
Mrs. Chang said: "Let's do a simple examination first, and wait until the Yamen's official arrives, then we can do a detailed autopsy."
Cui Hao naturally knew what an autopsy was like. They would look through her clothes and flesh, and sometimes cut them with a knife. Thinking of this, he rushed forward with passion and tried to snatch the body away from anyone else.
Hurt her again.
"Maybe this person is not Miss Yan Si?"
A voice came, which seemed to tug at Cui Hao's heartstrings. Cui Hao watched Miss Xu squat down and pointed at the corpse's hand: "You see there are calluses on the fingers of her right hand, but the rest of her palm is very smooth. This is
Why? According to my experience, such calluses on a woman’s hands are caused by years of tuning the piano. You can definitely find traces of pressing the strings for many years on her left hand. Miss Yan Si doesn’t have that much time to practice the piano.
, tuning the piano..."
Hearing this, Cui Hao opened his eyes wide and immediately went to check. He remembered that Miss Yan Si's hands did not have these calluses on her fingertips.
"There are still many differences that can only be found through examination," Xu Qinghuan said. "You hand the body to Mrs. Chang and let her examine it as soon as possible. Only then can the identity of this woman be determined earlier."
Cui Hao slowly let go of his hand. Although he already knew that the body was probably not Miss Yan Si, he still carefully placed the body on the ground, as if he was afraid of waking up a sleeping person.
After putting the body away, Cui Hao looked towards the river again, maybe Miss Yan Si was still in the river.
Seeing Cui Hao staring at the river, Xu Qinghuan said: "Someone deliberately destroyed the face of this corpse to confuse us and make us think she is Miss Yan Si."
Cui Hao's voice became hoarse and he looked at Xu Qinghuan: "Miss Xu, you mean...she is still alive?" He held his breath and waited for Miss Xu's answer.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Why don't we go find her? Seeing is believing."
Cui Hao seemed to come to life: "Where to go? I...I will go with Miss Xu."
As soon as Cui Hao finished speaking, he saw a figure in front of him flicker. Uncle Lei walked quickly not far away, stretched out his hand and pulled out a servant girl from behind a stone.
The servant woman had a look of panic on her face: "What are you doing? I just saw people dying here and came to watch the excitement."
Uncle Lei pulled the servant woman to Xu Qinghuan.
"You are not here to watch the excitement," Xu Qinghuan said, "You are from the Yan family..."
The servant girl couldn't help but clenched the veil tightly, with a panic look on her face. Seeing that she could no longer hide it, she immediately looked at Cui Hao: "I...my eldest wife...asked me to come find Mr. Cui. She has something important to discuss with me."
Master Cui said."
After saying that, she stretched out her head and looked at the corpse.
"That shouldn't be our fourth young lady." After saying this, the servant woman looked horrified, "Don't tell anyone, otherwise my eldest wife will definitely be beaten to death."
