He's Using Me to Solve the Case

He had been looking at dead people in Yizhuang for twenty-three years. When he opened the autopsy for the first time, he uncovered a murder case that had been concealed for twenty-two years - every deceased person he examined was killing him on behalf of the murderer. "You're the only one who's looking after the village, so why are you doing the autopsy?" Xu Changning squatted next to the female corpse, opened the deceased's nails, and scraped out a layer of gray-brown powder with a fine brush. "There were sawdust between her fingernails, which fell from the hemp rope. Six other people who died in the same month as her also had the same sawdust between their fingernails - this person killed seven people, and each of them touched the same hemp rope before they died." Wang Captou asked: "How do you know it's hemp rope and not something else?" "I have been watching dead people in Yizhuang for twenty-three years. The width of the bruises where the rope was strangled is different from the bruises where the fingers were pressed; the sawdust of new hemp rope and the sawdust of old hemp rope have different cross-sections. This is not something you learn - you can see it." He stood up and wiped his hands on his pants. This was the first time in his life that someone listened carefully to the entire sentence. What he didn't know was that this scene had been written in a secret report by the Prince Regent's informant and sent to the capital overnight. "You owe me a life, be careful to pay it back in the future." Xiao Xingjian blocked the knife for him and lay on Zhenfusi's couch. When he said this, his tone was as calm as if he was ordering more tea. Xu Changning stayed with him for three days and three nights, and did not dare to close his eyes until his eyes were red. He didn't know why this cold-faced Yama wanted to block the knife for him - after all, just a month ago, Xiao Xingjian looked at him like he was looking at a dispensable tree in the yard. Until the rainy night when the temple was ruined, Xiao Xingjian put the robe on his shoulders, brushed his cheek with her fingers, and did not take it back. "Master Xiao, why do you want to help me?" "I'm not helping you. I'm helping myself." Xiao Xingjian looked at the rain outside the window, his voice as low as a sigh, "You solve the case, and I will do the work. You are alive, and I feel at ease." "Every case I solve is to clear his name." The regent was his Bole and the benefactor who pulled him out of the quagmire of Yizhuang. Give him a belt, give him authority, and support him in front of everyone. Xu Changning regarded the regent as his reborn parent until he found the half of the jade pendant in the evidence library. Twenty-two years ago, a fourteen-year-old girl died in the back alley of the Ferry Inn. Before her death, half a piece of sapphire was torn off the murderer's body. There is a word engraved on the back of the jade pendant - Huan. The current regent has this word in his name. Xu Changning's father was the last imperial physician to diagnose the late emperor's pulse before his death. The night the late emperor passed away, Xu Yuanshan knew something he shouldn't have known. Twenty-three years later, the regent fished Xu Yuanshan's son out of the village and asked him to investigate cases, perform autopsies, and clean up political opponents for him. Every time a case was solved, an old piece of evidence against the regent was erased. The Bole he thought was his father-killing enemy. Every case he solves, he destroys the corpses and traces of his enemies. "This mute killed eight people, but he was not a murderer." Zhou Asi has been waiting for twenty-two years. Twenty-two years ago, his sister died in the back alley of the Fukou Inn. The county government said that the murderer could not be found, and the government government said there was insufficient evidence. His parents complained to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but no one paid any attention to them. Later, his house caught fire, and his parents were burned to death inside. A seventeen-year-old mute boy who cannot speak, has no money, and no connections. He spent twenty-two years investigating it himself. I found the witness who had perjured himself, found half of the jade pendant that my sister had torn off from the murderer, and found the person whose name was engraved on the back of the jade pendant. Then he killed them one by one. Qian Mao, Zhou Youfu, Liu Laosi, Chen Sanniang - each of them died in the same way as his sister suffered back then. He was not born a murderer. He was forced to become like this little by little by the murderer twenty-two years ago. The last person he wanted to kill was the current regent. The two male protagonists are slow to warm up, and their emotional lines are forged by fate. Xu Changning (accepted): Born as a guard in Yizhuang, he is a genius in autopsy. Humble but not mean, tolerant but proud. Xiao Xingjian (attack): Commander of Zhenfu Division, nicknamed "Xiao Yanluo". Cold-faced but not cold-hearted, defensive but unreasonable. It took a whole season for the two to go from being antagonistic to joining forces. Before their first kiss, they were all staring at each other and risking their lives to block the knife. What I want to see is not dancing in front of flowers and under the moon, but dancing on the tip of a knife. The protagonist's growth line is complete and does not rely on golden fingers. Xu Changning's autopsy ability is not a natural talent - it was developed after twenty-three years of watching dead people in the village, looking at, touching, smelling, and memorizing them day after day. Every reasoning he makes is supported by physical evidence, and every step he makes is logically based. There was no miracle from heaven, no grandfather passing on the skills, only twenty-three years of accumulation and a pair of hands that would not lie to him. The court's tactics fail to subdue wisdom, and the villain has a complete arc. The Prince Regent is the biggest villain in the show, but he is not a treacherous official. He killed his first man at the Ferry Inn when he was sixteen years old. For the next twenty-two years, every move he made was to patch up his crime of that year. His appreciation of Xu Changning is true, and his use of him is also true. In the last scene with him, he will say something to Xu Changning that makes you hate him. The supporting characters are not tool people. Zhou Wuzuo will change from making things difficult for you to secretly making suggestions, and Capt. Wang will change from a dawdling veteran to a strong man who dares to block the knife. Even the mute murderer who can't speak will make you heartbroken for a moment. Every supporting character has their own motivations and arcs, and no character exists purely to advance the plot. There is a knife, but HE. In the middle, there are the cruel points of separation between imperial edict and prison, crisis of rebellion, and life and death. Xiao Xingjian would personally imprison Xu Changning in prison, and Xu Changning would burn everything he sent in front of Xiao Xingjian. But in the end they would stand side by side on the tower of the capital, looking at the lights of thousands of houses, Xiao Xingjian reached out to hold Xu Changning's hand, and no one saw it in the night. The main plot, supplemented by emotions. Cases follow one after another, and the nails of each deceased person contain clues to the next deceased person. The first volume contains eight corpses in a serial murder case, the second volume turns to the secret battle in the court, and the third volume reveals the truth behind the death of the late emperor. The emotional line is obtained by fate, not by flowers and moon. Concept: Serial cases, layer upon layer of reversals, dual male protagonists, fateful entanglements
