Chapter 156 - 156 Bone Seduction Incense?
156 Bone Seduction Incense?
The few officials who did not have much hope for this autopsy looked up when they heard this.
“Did you really find out?”
“What did you find out? Tell me!”
“That’s impossible! Traditional Coroner Li of the East Continent’s Imperial City is an outstanding coroner among the five countries. If he didn’t uncover anything, how could you? Little girl, this is the government office. You can’t speak nonsense.”
Huo Chanyi had grown up in the Myriad Poison Valley, so she didn’t know much about the rules outside.
She did not know how big these officials in front of her were.
She only knew that Mo Beiyuan, the Yuan King, was the greatest official here.
Moreover, Yun Ran believed in her.
She presented the evidence she had found from the corpses to Mo Beiyuan and Yun Ran.
“I found the powdered ashes of the Bone Seduction Incense on the victims’ hair and bodies. This means that they had smelled the Bone Seduction Incense before they died.”
“Bone Seduction Incense? What is that?”
“The Soul Absorbing Incense is a very special spice. After being ignited, it has an illusionary effect. It’s very easy for people to fall into an illusion and not be able to extricate themselves. The Bone Seduction Incense is a level higher than the Soul Absorbing Incense. It can limit the types of illusions and make people fall into a fragrant illusion. There was once a person who was poisoned by the Bone-Absorbing Incense who said that he had seen a peerless beauty in that illusion.”
Actually, Yun Ran had already discovered the powder-like thing before, but she was not familiar with it, so she asked Huo Chanyi to examine it.
Unexpectedly, these things were ashes of incense.
This discovery also solved the suspicion that the deceased had met a fairy in the case.
“What about the cause of death?” If she wanted to find the murderer, she had to determine the exact cause of death. Yun Ran had heard this from a friend during the apocalypse.
Before the apocalypse, that friend was a very powerful criminal investigation expert.
Later on, the two of them established a small team together which became a powerful faction. They were very good friends.
When they chatted together, Yun Ran had heard him tell her a lot about solving cases in the past.
Huo Chanyi said, “The cause of his death was that his cultivation was sucked dry. It shouldn’t be some kind of orthodox cultivation technique.”
There were famous cultivation techniques in the orthodox sects, but none of them could suck dry a person’s cultivation.
“What else did you find? Do you think there’s anything special about these few things?”
Yun Ran’s gaze landed on the black tray. It swept past the powdered incense ash and moved to the other items.
It was a piece of paper, a fingerprint imprinted with a special technique.
There was also a golden thread about the length of a finger.
Huo Chanyi quickly explained, “This is a palm print left behind by the murderer. Judging from the size of the palm print, it should be a man. This thread was found in the hands of one of the victims. I feel that this thread is different from what we usually use.”
Logically speaking, it was already very impressive that Huo Chanyi could find out so much. However, Yun Ran did not look surprised at all, as if she had known all this before.
Yun Ran had indeed seen through it before, but she hadn’t personally examined the corpse. Firstly, she really didn’t know how to perform an autopsy. Secondly, she could find an opportunity to get Huo Chanyi involved in this demonic cultivation murder case.
Huo Chanyi didn’t disappoint her. She found some clues about the Bone Seduction Incense, but the little girl was still too young and inexperienced, so she overlooked some details.
