Chapter 1097: Chapter 1097: This person… isn’t dead!
“Aunt encountered soone from Illusion Continent? How did that happen, and when did it occur?”
He actually hadn’t received any news at all, which was no surprise, considering that he was also in a place cut off from news and couldn’t freely co and go. Presumably, the Emperor must have thought Aunt’s matter was sothing he could handle well.
“I don’t know the specifics. I’ll first take a look at them here, and then I’ll set off for Jianan City,” Lin Caisang said.
“Shall we go directly to the morgue at the county office?” the Eldest Prince suggested.
Because with this poison, one wouldn’t notice anything amiss until before death, and by the ti one realized they had been poisoned, they would already be dead. Therefore, only in the morgue could one see what kind of poison it was.
“Mm.”
Lin Caisang responded.
…
County office, morgue.
“Miss, since we really couldn’t determine how these people died, and feared an epidemic, the ones who died were all gathered by the county office and then taken to the wasteland west of the office to be burned, once every day,” the prefect said as he ca out. Seeing Lin Caisang treated with such honor by the Eldest Prince, he explained sincerely.
“So, the bodies stored here are all the ones brought in today.”
Having donned a mask and homade gloves, Lin Caisang, accompanied by the Eldest Prince, walked into the morgue.
“Old Liu, co here.”
The prefect waved over Old Liu, who was in charge of the morgue.
Old Liu imdiately ca over and brought Lin Caisang and the others to a body, lifting the white cloth.
“Eldest Prince, Miss, this one was just brought in. The body is still soft,” Old Liu said.
Nowadays, whoever had a dead person in their family wouldn’t dare to keep them at ho, preferring to rush them to the morgue right away, so it was normal for the body to still be pliable.
Lin Caisang reached out and lifted the collar of the body’s garnt slightly, revealing the darkened skin underneath. She furrowed her brows and stretched out her hand to Sui Ziyou.
“Ziyou, the knife.”
“Right.”
Sui Ziyou responded from behind, handing a dagger to Lin Caisang.
Lin Caisang took the dagger and lifted the clothes on the right arm of the body, about to make a cut, but she paused.
With a look of surprise, she glanced at the chest of the body and raised an eyebrow.
“Miss, what’s wrong?” asked Sui Ziyou, noticing her reaction.
“Prepare a bowl of cool boiled water, dissolve this pill in it.” Lin Caisang took out a porcelain bottle from her small bag and handed it to Sui Ziyou, who imdiately took it and looked to Old Liu.
“Miss, this way, please. We have water here,” Old Liu hurriedly led Sui Ziyou to his own room.
“Miss Lin, what are you…”
The Eldest Prince, seeing her take out dicine, was puzzled, but then he saw her make a cut on the arm of the body and collect the flowing blood in the porcelain bottle, making him even more puzzled.
What situation is this?
“The blood hasn’t coagulated, and this wound…” A royal physician behind the Eldest Prince couldn’t hold back any longer, frowning at the cut on the body’s arm.
“Eldest Prince, this person… isn’t dead!”
“What?!”
Upon hearing the physician’s words, the Eldest Prince exclaid in shock and stepped back.
Not just him, but the rest of the people also stepped back, disbelieving what they saw before the ‘corpse.’
They had thought the person was dead before being brought into the morgue, but it turned out they weren’t dead?!
“Lin… Miss Lin, what’s going on here?” he asked Lin Caisang.
