Chapter 250 - 157: The Return of the Second Rabbit_2
Liu Qingsong curled his lips, "Ran the forensic doctor, I’m just a doctor, not an Autopsy Officer, being able to do this much is already pretty good."
Ran Yan pursed her lips as she gazed at him. Was this the legendary autopsy expert of Great Tang?
Feeling a chill from her cold gaze, Liu Qingsong waved his hands, "Really, you scare me. I just went to look over the body and conducted a preliminary check this afternoon. County Magistrate Song said we must inquire about the Liu Family’s opinion, as he had been merely expelled from the family home. It’s unknown if he has been struck off the family register, so we can’t just move the body without permission. However, I believe it’s very likely that he has been disowned; otherwise, they wouldn’t have let him beg outside and lose face for the family. If an autopsy is allowed, would you like to perform the dissection?"
"Do you think I can perform the dissection like this?" Ran Yan responded indifferently.
Liu Qingsong glanced at Ran Yan’s suspended arm and, undeterred, suggested, "How about I perform the dissection, and you observe?"
Ran Yan was somewhat tempted. Seeing this, Liu Qingsong quickly continued to persuade her, "You only need to watch, and we can discuss any questions you have afterwards. How does that sound?"
"I will be leaving this place early tomorrow morning," Ran Yan said, looking at the moonlight streaming in from outside, guesstimating that the ground would probably be dry enough to travel after airing out overnight. Moreover, the roads radiating from Luoyang in all directions were very smooth, some were even paved, and not difficult to travel.
"But the tattoos, the beggar’s strange appearance, these aren’t really things one encounters easily." Liu Qingsong was ordered to watch over Ran Yan’s injuries along the journey. If he told Xiao Song that he abandoned Ran Yan to perform an autopsy, would he believe it?
