【Qijie】The Kingdom of Eternal Life

When Qiya and Xiaojie went to the tower, it was just at the end of the autopsy of Maqi.

They waited at the door for a while, and the female forensic doctor opened the door and came out without taking off her mask. She just took off her rubber gloves stained with black blood and threw them in the sink, saying: "It was indeed a homicide. The time of death was [-] o'clock last night." Between one point and one point. The cause of death is indeed falling from a building.”

Qi Ya knew it well.That's when it rained.

Ma Qi belongs to the Anbu of the tower, but in fact it is not the special forensic doctor of the tower, but just a part-time job.Her speaking style is as precious as gold, there is no smile or emotion in her pair of purple eyes, she is business-like, her voice is flat without ups and downs.

Although Qi Ya and Xiao Jie are not familiar with her, they have cooperated more or less and are used to her language style. They looked at each other and listened to the rest of the text.

Maggie turned on the faucet and washed her hands in the sound of splashing water: "It's not that she fell from the building after death, her fatal wound didn't solidify."

Hemorrhage is a cadaveric condition that can only be confirmed by autopsy.In a living state, after a person is injured, platelets will promote their own repair and achieve the state of blood coagulation in the wound, while a dead body will not.

"Although the injury on her arm is serious, it has coagulation. The fatal injury on the back of the head has not solidified. It means that the back of the brain is a fatal wound."

"How do you explain the wound on her palm and the deformed barbed wire?" Xiaojie asked.

The point of contradiction is that if Bonayer was thrown downstairs, it is unlikely that she was awake. How can she grab the barbed wire and scratch her hands with scars?

"I don't know about that." March shrugged, "This is what you have to do."

Xiaojie also realized that chasing a forensic doctor who had never been to the scene to ask suspicious points other than the corpse was a bit difficult, so he scratched his head embarrassingly. "Feel sorry."

"She probably had a fight with someone before she was alive." Ma Qi glanced at him, "There are many bruises on her body caused by blows..."

"She grabbed the barbed wire from the roof." Xiaojie was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized, "Maybe she fell or lost her balance, and she grabbed it in a hurry, and she hurt her hand with too much force. The other party took this opportunity to subdue hit her and slammed the heel into her arm, causing severe bone shattering. Chiya—”

Qi Ya glanced at him, and before he finished speaking, he said, "It's raining."

The blood inside the barbed wire may have been washed away long ago.

Xiaojie's feverish mind calmed down, and he replied in frustration.Qi Ya's gaze lingered on the top of his drooping head for a while and then looked away: "We can go and have a look later."

Xiaojie nodded vigorously twice.

Madge let them discuss without speaking, watching the two of them get along quietly, but gradually raised his eyebrows.

Qi Ya didn't know what she was thinking, so he reasoned: "The other party should have a lot of hatred for her, so he smashed her arm like this."

There was also an explanation for the previous irrationality. It wasn't that the opponent was so powerful that he could smash Bonaye's hand bones to pieces with one blow.It was because the other party had hatred in his heart, so he held down Bonaye, who was struggling in pain, and smashed the woman's hand bones to pieces.

"Ah, speaking of which." March wiped her hands clean, "There was an inconspicuous cut on her arm, and then I tried to restore her hand bones..."

Not to mention Xiaojie, Qi Ya was taken aback: "Recovery???"

"Well, I put it together." Ma Qi said lightly, as if he didn't put together a pile of broken bones, but casually put together a jigsaw puzzle bought at a street stall: "I didn't put together a lot, but it was enough."

She turned sideways to take the autopsy report, flipped through it casually, and pulled out a picture.There is no particularly bloody scene in the image, but the focus is enough to attract the eye.

On the bone, there is actually a small, small plant leaf, broad leaf, with rounded teeth gathered on the edge of the leaf.

They have all seen this plant.They even know the name.

— On the back of the girl Daisy, a golden tattoo embroidery.The name is the same as the drug they are chasing, both called "Phoenix"!

"Do you know it? It looks like some kind of plant." Ma Qi saw their expressions clearly enough, turned around and walked into the room, and waved casually: "My work is done, and you can work hard for the rest."

Maqi also informed the person in charge of the intelligence department of this information, so Kurapika quickly came to meet Kiya and Xiaojie in a hurry.It just happened to be lunch time, so the three of them made an appointment for a simple meal in the cafeteria of the tower, and exchanged information by the way.

It was lunch time, and there were a lot of diners. Fortunately, the cafeteria was large enough to avoid the hardship of rubbing shoulders.For convenience, Kurapika booked a small private room.When Qi Ya opened the door, he found that Leorio was also inside, taking off his scarf, breathing hard to warm his hands.It happened to be raining and cold in spring, and the weather was still very cold, so a few people surrounded the small stove and had a hot pot together.

"How's Daisy?" Xiaojie didn't even have time to break his chopsticks, and asked Kurapika with a straight face.

Kiya signaled to Leorio to let his Alaska move, then took Xiaojie and his own coat and scarf, put them in a plastic bag with a smell and put them on an empty chair.Kurapika glanced at his movements, and replied: "There is no problem at the moment. I interrogated her once this morning. She didn't understand the patterns on Bonaye's bones, so she was very confused. But she didn't disagree." Proof of presence. She was released home as early as a week ago. The place where she lived was 10 minutes away from the crime scene by bus. She was said to be asleep at the time of the crime. Yes. There are so many ways to leave the building without going through the street."

"Did you lie?" Qi Ya scalded the bowls and chopsticks with hot water and placed them in front of Xiaojie.

"Probably not." Kurapika replied.

While Sentinels and Guides both have a basic ability to analyze lies, Kurapika is particularly good at it.Kurapika is known as a walking lie detector, with his perfect ability to perceive words and emotions combined with his powerful mental power to perceive emotions, basically no one can lie in front of him.

Leo Li picked up a piece of beef, dipped it in a raw egg, put it into his mouth, and said vaguely while chewing: "It should have nothing to do with her, right? Although she has gone home these days, she still stays with me regularly." Drug detoxification, the dead person detoxified at my place at noon on the day of the death, and did not return home until [-] pm. The detoxification was already very tiring, and it was impossible to kill again every few hours. And didn’t it mean that the murderer profiled was very strong? She's not a Sentinel."

"She seems to be just an ordinary person." Qi Ya also picked up a slice of beef, and when he was about to eat, he lowered his head and found two slices of green vegetables in the bowl.

He glanced at Xiaojie, who was chewing konjac shreds. After noticing his gaze, he swallowed the food like a hamster, and mouthed to him: "I want-eat-vegetables- vegetable--"

Qi Ya curled his lips, picked up the two pieces of green vegetables, and stuffed them into his mouth in disgust, without chewing, he swallowed them whole.

Leorio, who watched for a while, silently picked up two slices of green vegetables and stuffed them into Kurapika's bowl.

Kurapika: "...what are you doing?"

Leorio: "No, that, in this kind of atmosphere, I somehow feel that if we don't have a dish, it will look weird to both of us..."

Kurapika: "..."

He was speechless for a while, then randomly picked up a piece of green onion from the pot, and threw it into Leorio's bowl politely.

doctor:"……"

He answered Qi Ya's previous question speechlessly: "Well, neither is it a sentinel nor a guide. The physical fitness of the examination report is quite ordinary, because of drug abuse and kidney deficiency, spleen deficiency and liver deficiency, it doesn't look like he can crush another adult woman by crushing her." hands."

It may be that Daisy was rehabilitating drugs at his place, and had a little contact with him. Leorio had a good impression of this girl: "I don't think she has a bad nature." As he said, he still picked up the onion in the bowl I got up and ate it with a look of disgust.

Xiaojie didn't notice the small movements of the two friends before, he was concentrating on thinking about the case.Qi Ya noticed it, but he didn't say anything. He picked up two pieces of meat, thought about it, and pinched his nose to pick up a piece of vegetables.

"How do you do the embroidery on the bones?" He swallowed the vegetables whole, drank another glass of corn juice, and didn't bother Daisy's physical fitness anymore. "Is it the bone tattoo done by Bonaye before his death?"

Bone tattoos are a kind of mysterious popularity that emerged in the past few years. It is especially prevalent among young people and gangsters in the late stage of the second disease, but it has decreased a lot in recent years.

"It hurts." Leorio replied. "Anesthesia is useless to the bones. After all, the bones are to be tattooed. If it weren't for the vicious and extreme underworld organizations, few people now have bone tattoos. Even if it is a gangster organization, not every member has to have bone tattoos. This means that A sort of……"

punishment.

Qi Ya was thoughtful.

"Have any tests been done on the paint on it?"

Leorie: "Yeah. I had a blood touch reaction, and it didn't oxidize or change color. It wasn't done during my lifetime."

"So it's..." Xiaojie said, "the murderer left it on her hands."

"And she should still be alive at that time." Qi Ya calmly answered.

Leorio showed a depressed look.

Unable to break free, he watched helplessly as the murderer cut off his arm, branded a pattern on it, then forcibly smashed this section of hand bone, and was finally thrown off the tall building.

... must have hurt.

Qi Ya glanced at Xiaojie.

A person who once stood in front of you, chatted and laughed with you, was treated so cruelly and evilly during his lifetime.Although she is full of doubts and may not even be innocent, it is still difficult for people to let go.

In fact, Qi Ya thinks this is okay. He has seen far more cruel ways of death than this. His experience as a killer allows him to look down on these things calmly. Some customers do have very perverted requests, although he himself has never He has encountered this type of commission, but this does not prevent him from knowing or even understanding, so he is indifferent.

It's just that Xiaojie probably can't.

Xiaojie is kind, respects life, and cherishes his companions. Even if someone who has been unfavorable to him is in danger, he will not hesitate to step forward to rescue him, even if it puts himself at a disadvantage.

Although Qi Ya has a different attitude from him in some aspects, he still feels that Xiao Jie's bravery is as precious as gold.

Also very attractive.

only……

The almost chaotic hostility he saw in Xiaojie's eyes before seemed to have dissipated into nothingness now. Those citrus-colored pupils looked at Kurapika intently, waiting for more information .On the cold rainy night before, the evil spirit that was pressed against the corners of his eyelashes and fell into his eyes along with a drop of cold rain had never been felt in Xiaojie, that expressionless Xiaojie with golden pupils , and the ice-snow-like coldness soaked in Qi Ya's whole body, it seemed that they all left at the same time with the sudden stop of the heavy rain.

Xiaojie now looks exactly the same as usual.

But Qi Ya didn't relax in his heart, and even sank a little more.

It was only after he got home that he suddenly realized that the sudden chill and killing intent was not because of his sudden failure to suppress his habit, but because of Xiaojie.

Because the bonding rate between him and Xiaojie is too low, even after completing the spiritual bonding, they can't perceive each other's emotions like the normal bonded sentinel guides.But it's justifiable, he's used to it.

So at that time, Qi Ya didn't realize for a moment that the killing intent he felt was actually transmitted to him through a spiritual link: Xiaojie's emotions.

Qi Ya didn't know why he could suddenly perceive Xiaojie's mood swings through the spiritual link. It might be because he changed from his original willingness to save people to a willing liking, or it might be because Xiaojie's killing intent at that moment was really strong. It was so strong that there were two hints of the slender spiritual link.Whatever, the reason he doesn't want to go into details now.After that, no matter how concentrated he was, he couldn't feel Xiaojie's other emotions, or maybe he felt it, but he was very calm, so calm that he almost thought he had no emotions.

Qi Ya tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and poured the tea from the teapot into Xiao Jie's empty cup with his hands down, and got the latter's usual smile: "Thank you, Qi Ya."

This smile is pure and composed, like sweet wine brewed together with honey and Xi Guang.Xiaojie turned his eyes away, picked up the teacup, took a sip in his palm, then continued to focus on Kurapika and listen to him.

Kiya didn't say anything, just gently put the teapot back on its place, and continued to listen to Kurapika while concentrating on it.
