Chapter 213 Mosquito Punishment! (4/5)
Bitten by mosquitoes?
To be honest, Ouyang Jing's first reaction after hearing what the forensic doctor said to herself was that the other party was joking with herself.
But Ouyang Jing understood that although she and these forensic doctors were good friends, they often had dinner parties and joked on weekdays.
But my forensic brothers would never joke with me about this kind of thing.
He frowned tightly.
Ouyang Jing said.
"Old Xu, this is not a joke, don't joke with me.
After he finished speaking, the forensic doctor Lao Xu's wry laughter came from the phone.
"Ouyang, how could I lie to you about this kind of thing? According to our autopsy, the cause of death was allergies caused by inflammation caused by excessive mosquito bites. This kind of death is very rare, but it is not unheard of in history. .”
"Oh, have you seen this kind of death before?"
Ouyang Jing was surprised by Lao Xu's words.
Has anyone ever been bitten by a mosquito?
"I haven't seen it, but I have seen it in books before. Do you know that there was a cruel punishment for criminals in ancient times, mosquito punishment?"
"Mosquito punishment..."
Hearing this, Ouyang Jing couldn't help being stunned.
Mosquito torture, as the name suggests, is a torture that causes the victim to be bitten to death by mosquitoes.
During the execution, the victim's whole body's clothes are first stripped.
Then it is taken to the wet and mosquito-intensive woods, or to the water surface with many mosquitoes by boat, and the executioner guards in a space with protective measures around it.
On the second day, the victim will generally be bitten and his whole body will be swollen, and he will die.
One can imagine the pain in the process of being bitten.
This is not a legend, but a recorded criminal law.
Rumor has it that mosquito punishment originated from Duke Huan of Qi, the head of the Five Hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period.
One day Duke Huan of Qi was lying on his bed when he saw a mosquito flying and nailing him.
Duke Huan of Qi raised his hand and was about to take a picture, but then he thought about it.
"Under my rule, the world is peaceful, and the people have plenty of food and clothing, but the mosquitoes are hungry. Everything in the world is equal, so why don't I let it go when it is full~々."
Ever since, he quietly let the mosquito suck blood, and waited for it to be full.
But the mosquitoes didn't seem to be satisfied until they were so sucked that they couldn't fly and landed on the bed.
Duke Huan of Qi was so itchy and uncomfortable from being nailed by the mosquito, he watched the blood-sucking mosquito flapping its wings on the bed, wanting to fly but unable to fly.
I thought, Mosquito! You are greedy! Then, you slapped it down with a palm.
Later, he talked about it with Guan Zhong.
Guan Zhong said that it was the greed of mosquitoes that caused the catastrophe, not that the king was unkind.
After Guan Zhong finished speaking, he went on to say, "Now our Lord is wise and powerful, Yao, Shun, and Yu Tang have governed the world in an orderly manner, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but there are still some greedy and bad people who are doing evil.
In order to punish these evildoers, we have to impose criminal laws. After hearing this, Duke Huan of Qi praised it greatly!
For officials who seem to be corrupt and greedy people, i like greedy mosquitoes to punish them
In this way, the mosquito punishment appeared.
This is the origin of mosquito punishment, but this kind of criminal law has already disappeared in the long river of history.
Can only be seen in records.
But who would have thought that now he would encounter this ancient criminal law here.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Jing's expression became serious.
"You mean, someone tortured He Jin to death with mosquito torture?"
"It's hard to say, Ouyang, there was no anesthetic residue in the body of the deceased, and there was no trace of taking prohibited stimulant drugs, and there were no traces of binding or violent beating on the hands, which shows that He Jin probably ran away alone. Going to the swamp, and then being stung to death alive in it, this conclusion sounds a little nonsense, but there is no better explanation."
Hearing this, Ouyang Jing couldn't help but feel a little headache.
It can be heard from the phone that although my forensic friend made such an inference, the forensic doctor himself did not believe it.
Imagine what it would be like for a living person to take off his clothes and stand in a swamp, suffer from mosquito bites, and then be stung to death?
Hang up the phone, Ouyang Jing is still sleepy now.
He Jin's death was so weird, it was almost the same as Sun Yiyi's death at that time.
It's hard to say, is this what the puppeteer did again?
Thinking of this, Ouyang Jing couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
In my police career, I have caught hundreds of criminals, big and small.
But for that puppeteer, Ouyang Jing only felt like a puppet being played around.
Every step, every judgment seems to be drawn by invisible dimensions.
And that puppeteer is the matchmaker, and it's really uncomfortable to feel that every step falls into the other's calculations.
Seeing Ouyang Jing sighing all the time, the policeman sitting in the driver's seat carefully asked what happened to Ouyang Jing.
But when Ouyang Jing said the conclusion of the forensic doctor, the little policeman couldn't help being stunned.
This police officer is also a rookie who has just joined the police force, even younger than Zhou Yan.
Such a young man who has just joined the job has never heard of such a bizarre way of death.
The whole person was stunned.
He glanced at the stunned police officer.
Ouyang Jing shook her head and said.
"Unexpectedly, Xiao Wang, you just joined the police force not long ago. If you came in last year, you would see more weird cases like Zhou Yan.
"Ah? Sister Jing, Senior Brother Zhou Yan investigated this case with you as soon as he came up?"
Hearing this, the police officer named Xiao Wang was even more shocked.
No wonder senior brother Zhou Yan is so powerful, he has already become the backbone of the serious crime team after only one year in the job.
Handling a case of this level from the very beginning is simply hellish difficulty.
I simulated in my mind what I would do if I was the leader of the serious crime team.
Xiao Wang found helplessly that he had no clue about such a seemingly bizarre case.
"Your Senior Brother Zhou Yan is smart, and you have been involved in major cases, so you have achieved today's achievements. You should study hard. In Jinheng City, such opportunities (with Zhao's) are indispensable."
Shaking her head helplessly, Ouyang Jing got out of the car.
He took a deep breath of the moist air in the early morning forest.
After not sleeping all night, the already highly tired brain felt better.
Shift over time.
After waiting here for a while, Zhou Yan and Brother Liu led the team.
After completing the shift, Zhou Yan glanced worriedly at Ouyang Jing, who already had dark circles under her eyes.
Zhou Yan had already discovered that Ouyang Jing was in a bad state after having dinner with her brother that day.
In addition to staying up all night yesterday, Ouyang Jing's face is even more ugly and terrible now.
Stepping forward with concern, Zhou Yan persuaded.
"Sister Jing, you should go back and have a rest, you are too tired these days."
Hearing this, Ouyang Jing smiled slightly at Zhou Yan, shook her head and stood up.
"No, I'm not tired, get ready, let's start working!"
