The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

"I'll help you!" Just then, the handsome young swordsman's clear voice rang out again, his smile as bright as the sun.

Fang Qingyou didn't want to owe him a favor, but his control over strength and speed was exceptionally precise, making him a top-notch helper. Moreover, his warm smile made it almost impossible for her to refuse.

"Hold this knife and slowly move it from here to here. At my speed, if it doesn't work the first time, I might have to do it a few more times, okay?" Fang Qingyou explained to the handsome young swordsman while demonstrating the speed of movement with her hands.

“Okay.” The handsome young swordsman nodded and followed Fang Qingyou’s movements exactly, his speed was practically a copy.

Once, twice...

"Bang—" On the third time, a crisp metallic clang suddenly rang out, and everyone's eyes were drawn to the knife in the handsome young swordsman's hand.

Fang Qingyou gestured for the handsome young swordsman to turn his knife over. Sure enough, a wire about three centimeters long, or an inch, was caught at the tip of the blade.

"What is this?" the head guard asked in surprise. He felt as if the thing had flown out of the dead man's head.

The handsome young swordsman and the other two guards also looked puzzled.

In the next room, Luo Qianmo's lips curled into a faint smile; she did indeed have some skill.

Xuanhuang looked surprised. They had actually found out the truth about this series of murders long ago. However, their people were carefully trained and naturally had the ability. But it was really surprising that a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl had such methods, and her methods were so unique!

Could she telekinesis? Xuanhuang thought it probably wasn't, but he truly didn't know how she did it.

Fang Qingyou did not answer the head guard, but continued to examine the left side of the deceased's head.

At a glance, she noticed that the wrinkle on the deceased's scalp was noticeably less prominent than before.

She gently pressed the scalp near the folds a few more times to make sure that the foreign feeling under it had indeed disappeared.

Only then did Fang Qingyou turn her attention back to the wire and pick it up with tweezers.

The wire was rusty, and it was covered with the victim's blood, flesh, and some scalp tissue, which was enough to prove that it was indeed taken from the victim's head and could serve as physical evidence.

Afterward, Fang Qingyou continued her efforts, examining the heads of the remaining four corpses one by one. She quickly discovered unusual scalp folds in the same locations on the heads of the four people, which confirmed that the five victims had indeed died at the hands of the same person.

This time, the handsome young hero knew what to do and quickly sucked out the wires from the heads of the other four victims.

This scene left the three guards speechless. Fang Qingyou was truly capable; they had been blind to her abilities before.

Fang Qingyou ignored all that and began searching the heads of the four corpses, but in the end she only found potato fragments in the heads of two of them.

The first two victims were so badly decomposed that little evidence could be found on their bodies.

At this point, Fang Qingyou had a general conclusion: the cause of death for these five people was that they had been pierced through the Chengling and Luoque acupoints on the left side of their heads by wires laced with solanine.

Due to the unique nature of these two acupoints, solanine produced a rapid and intense stimulation to the deceased's brain, causing neurological disorders. This explains why their masked expressions looked so strange and painful, and the continued effects of solanine ultimately led to their death.

However, Fang Qingyou did not rush to state this conclusion. Instead, she carefully examined the other four bodies several more times. She needed to find out more information about the murderer.

The bodies of the four victims had no other wounds; they all died from a wire piercing through the Chengling and Luoque acupoints. The first victim, however, had multiple marks on his body indicating a violent struggle.

Fang Qingyou's eyes flickered. It seemed that the murderer was someone who knew martial arts but not much about medicine.

Why do you say this way?

Firstly, to kill someone using this method, the process must be both precise and swift, so the murderer must not only be very strong but also have quick reflexes.

The fact that the murderer was able to successfully kill five people shows that he did a good job in these two aspects.

Secondly, the wires she used to briefly draw from the heads of the five victims were deformed to completely different degrees. This indicates that the murderer wanted to use this method to kill people and knew the location of acupoints, but could not accurately control the force used to insert the wires into the acupoints.

A skilled doctor can do this very easily.

According to Fang Qingyou's speculation, the murderer likely accidentally killed the first victim using this method, and then used the same method to kill the other four victims.

At this point, the causes of death for the five victims have been largely determined, but this step is still some distance from identifying the murderer.

Fang Qingyou needed more information, so she looked at the head guard: "Brother Bing, I've finished examining the bodies of these five victims. To determine the killer, I need to know some details about the crime scene. You should know the identities of these five victims and the circumstances under which their bodies were discovered, right?"

At this moment, Fang Qingyou transformed back into the cheerful and sweet-talking young girl, no longer the stern and cold-faced coroner from before. This change made the leading guard momentarily unaccustomed to it, and he remained stunned for a while before reacting and nodding.

"Let's talk outside." The head guard turned and left the morgue; he was about to suffocate if he stayed any longer.

Fang Qingyou did not leave immediately. Instead, she took off her gloves and face mask and left them in the morgue. Then, she bowed to each of the five deceased once more, saying in her heart, "May the dead rest in peace!"

The handsome young swordsman imitated Fang Qingyou's actions, doing them all the same way, and even winked his heroic and spirited black eyes at her.

Fang Qingyou was stunned at first, then quickly turned around and ran away. If she didn't run away, she was afraid that her late-stage obsession with looks would kick in.

That's absolutely the real deal when it comes to seductive glances. Doesn't this naive young hero know that randomly flirting can kill people?

After Fang Qingyou came out, the head guard told her about the case.

"The first victim was a farmer from Gaojia Village; his body was discovered at the village entrance. The second victim was... and the last victim was a wealthy merchant from Nanguan County, who was found dead in front of a brothel..."
