Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife Chapter 365: The Corpse Has Changed!

Exhuming and opening the coffin is a very tedious ritual.

Chen Xiao could see that Liu Dayou’s forehead was already covered with beads of sweat.

However, Chen Xiao couldn’t help with this matter and could only wait silently on the side.

Finally, the groundbreaking ceremony concluded.

The villagers called by the Zheng Family helped open the grave, revealing the coffin.

Then Liu Dayou perford another ritual before proceeding to open the coffin.

After spending so ti, the lid of the coffin was finally pried open.

At this mont, Dai Hong’Er couldn’t help but move closer to take a look.

However, Dai Hong’Er only saw so quilts or burial items that were originally placed over the remains, and she was already pale with fear.

Chen Xiao also understood the fear people have in their hearts regarding such matters.

Especially when they haven’t seen the real remains, people beco more terrified due to their own imagination.

If they truly saw it, they might not be as scared.

Chen Xiao had no mind to take care of Dai Hong’Er.

When the coffin was opened, he held so incense, took a bow, then put on a mask, gloves, and booties, and jumped down into the grave pit.

Standing by the coffin, Chen Xiao took a look inside.

However, just at that glance, Chen Xiao’s brows imdiately furrowed.

Liu Dayou noticed the change in his expression and was about to inquire when he heard soone from the Zheng Family calling:

"Mr. Chen, are these police officers here because you called them?"

Chen Xiao looked up and saw that Pan Huiping had personally brought a forensic expert from Hai City.

He explained Pan Huiping’s identity to the Zheng Family.

Then Pan Huiping also suited up and jumped into the grave pit.

Chen Xiao did not ntion what surprised him earlier, but when Pan Huiping looked at it herself, her face also changed.

She turned to look at Chen Xiao, and although she said nothing, her eyes said it all.

Chen Xiao just nodded slightly, and Pan Huiping imdiately called the forensic expert over while she took on the task of photographing.

The forensic examination was much more ticulous.

After partially removing the outermost quilt, they began to uncover it.

But beneath the quilt, the bones were not imdiately visible.

A golden yellow cloth was still covering it.

Looking at that cloth, Chen Xiao and Pan Huiping’s eyes t again.

Chen Xiao imdiately went up and walked to Zheng Tang’s side:

"Mr. Zheng, you see now that Captain Pan and the forensic expert from Hai City have arrived. Now, they feel that all the burial items should be taken for examination. Would the Zheng Family be able to cooperate?"

Zheng Tang glanced at his mother.

Although he could make decisions for the Zheng Family, this was about opening his father’s coffin, so he had to consider his mother’s feelings.

After Zheng Tang explained the situation, the old lady also agreed to the police’s request.

Chen Xiao jumped back into the grave pit again and said, "The Zheng Family agreed."

After Pan Huiping said okay, she squinted her eyes and whispered, "Do you think there’s anything under that cloth?"

"Judging by how the cloth is propped up, there should be."

Pan Huiping nodded and lowered her voice even more:

"You wouldn’t know by looking at the grave, but opening it really gave us a scare."

"It’s indeed frightening, but when the ground was being broken earlier, I observed the soil’s condition. It’s not sothing that happened recently."

"It seems soone tampered with it long ago, so there’s no need to doubt anymore. There are definitely issues with Zheng Xiang’s death! However, back in that era, the police oversight on civilian deaths and the awareness of families were not strong, leading to the current situation."

As she spoke, Pan Huiping continued, "Do you have any ideas on how to explain when the truth cos out later?"

Chen Xiao replied, "With the way you’re talking, it reminds a bit of Zhang Xian."

Normally, Chen Xiao would refer to him as Director Zhang, but on certain occasions, he would call him Zhang Xian.

Pan Huiping was puzzled, "What do you an?"

"When Zhang Xian set up, he spoke just like you do. So now, I formally introduce myself to you, Captain Pan. Your Celestial Valley Branch still hasn’t issued a consultant certificate. I rely on a consultant certificate from Dongzhou to get by outside. As long as no one looks closely, I’m fine; if they did, I’d definitely be stuck."

After Chen Xiao said this, he instinctively moved to stand at a corner of the grave pit.

Pan Huiping understood, smiled bitterly, and said, "I just got used to you leading since last night, had no intention of setting you up."

"I understand, so let’s have Captain Pan talk to the deceased’s family later!"

Chen Xiao squinted his eyes and smiled.

Pan Huiping nodded helplessly and continued with her photography work.

Soon, the forensic expert carefully lifted the cloth covering the remains, revealing the bones beneath.

For Chen Xiao and Pan Huiping,

the impact of bones was far less than that of a corpse.

But after being buried under the earth for over a decade, the body couldn’t remain in a state of high decay.

Of course, the sll inside the coffin was definitely unpleasant.

As the cloth was lifted, all the children and grandchildren of the Zheng Family knelt on the ground.

Chen Xiao glanced at them, still silent, unaffected by the cries of Zheng Tang and a few of Zheng Xiang’s children behind him.

However, when the forensic expert wanted to pick up the bones, Chen Xiao said:

"Let do it."

The forensic expert looked at him in surprise, but when Pan Huiping nodded, he stepped aside.

Chen Xiao imdiately activated his Gold-Picking Drill ability.

After being buried underground for more than ten years, the bones could no longer hold together.

So, Chen Xiao had to be very careful, gradually bringing those bones to the surface.

While holding the bones, Chen Xiao’s vision also received information feedback from his skills.

Upon his observation, these bones did not belong to a man in his fifties.

Even after being corroded significantly over the years underground, he could still confirm these were not the bones of a fifty-year-old man.

In fact, Chen Xiao suspected they might be the remains of a man in his thirties!

At this mont, after observing for a while, the forensic expert suddenly exclaid:

"Huh, this seems a bit off?"

Chen Xiao imdiately looked at him.

The forensic expert mistook Chen Xiao’s gaze as a signal for inquiry and was about to speak when Pan Huiping tugged at him:

"Keep any findings to yourself for now; I’ll explain to the family later."

The forensic expert couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

But given Pan Huiping’s directive, he couldn’t express any doubt just then.

Everything continued with Chen Xiao carefully picking up the bones.

When all the bones were brought to the surface, Chen Xiao continued to arrange them sequentially.

The family mbers of Zheng Xiang saw this and couldn’t help crying again.

Once one person cried, more joined in.

So wept while chanting, and Chen Xiao wasn’t sure if they were genuinely crying or if it was a customary reaction.

After arranging the bones properly, Chen Xiao nodded at Pan Huiping, signaling she could now engage with the family.

Pan Huiping took a deep breath, but just as she was about to act, Zheng Tang, who had been observing the bones from his wheelchair, suddenly had a drastic change in his expression, exclaiming with an incredibly agitated tone:

"No, this isn’t my dad!"
