Chapter 135: Giants Watching the Rotten Corpse
Hearing Gu Nankai's scolding, Li Meng suddenly stopped walking. Shang Lu, who was in the living room, paused when he heard the noise, and quickly stood up and ran towards Gu Nankai and Li Meng.
"What's going on!" Shang Lu raised his voice a lot, fearing that the two of them couldn't hear clearly.
At this moment, Gu Nankai and Li Meng had their backs to Shang Lu. Hearing her voice, Li Meng turned around first. He shook his head and replied loudly to Shang Lu: "I don't know, the boss said something is wrong!"
Shang Lu frowned with confusion, but Gu Nankai did not turn around. He just paused, pushed Li Meng with one arm again to signal him not to come closer, took a step forward, and then used the wooden stick in his hand to pick up the piled garbage.
Shang Lu looked at the mess in the bathroom which was like a garbage dump, her face wrinkled under the mask. Seeing the two leg masks left by Gu Nankai next to her, she quickly put them on herself. Because of the limited space inside, she could only stand at the door and watch.
For the time being, they couldn't see what Gu Nankai was doing. Shang Lu looked at a layer of soil-like substance on the ground, squatted down, scraped it with the scraper in his hand and held it up to look. Because they were wearing masks, they couldn't smell the smell here very clearly.
But when he rubbed the substance through his gloves, Shang Lu's expression under the mask changed slightly, as if he was a little confused and looked a little solemn.
She quickly stood up and leaned over to see what was happening over there with Gu Nankai. The bathroom was very small. Although most of the place was filled with garbage-like materials, that was only the size of the place, because the bathroom was only two square meters at most.
“Oh my god!”
Li Meng and Gu Nankai were the first to see the thing buried by the garbage, but Shang Lu was blocked from view by them. Li Meng's loud and powerful shout of "Oh my God" strongly aroused Shang Lu's curiosity.
She poked Li Meng with her finger.
"What's going on!" Li Meng did not turn around because of Shang Lu's behavior. He seemed to be attracted by something in front of him, which made Shang Lu even more curious.
"Captain!" Shang Lu called out to Gu Nankai, but like Li Meng, Gu Nankai did not turn back. He bent down slightly and continued to fiddle with something with the wooden stick in his hand, and Li Meng soon joined him in the work.
"Just then, Shang Lu felt a weight on her shoulders. She shrank subconsciously and her heart tightened, but soon she heard Cao Cang's familiar voice.
"What's going on in there? Is there any situation?" Before Cao Cang came in, he had already worn a corresponding mask at the request of Gao Yuan and Wu Qingluan, so his voice was a little loud at this time.
"Why are you here!" Seeing that it was Cao Cang, Shang Lu breathed a sigh of relief and asked Cao Cang.
Cao Cang did not explain much, just said that he was fine.
Hearing the two people talking at this time, Gu Nankai finally turned around. He looked at Cao Cang, his eyes frowned and a trace of worry flashed across his eyes. Combined with the situation at the scene at this time, and the fact that they had been wearing masks for some time.
Thinking of this, he signaled Li Meng to leave. After Gu Nankai and Li Meng both left, Shang Lu and Cao Cang, who were standing at the door, saw the situation inside.
Under that pile of garbage, there was actually... actually a person buried!
A person whose body is already highly decomposed!
Shang Lu and Cao Cang looked at each other and frowned at the same time. Oh my God, what happened in this house? One person was burned to death in a strange way, and the other was buried in the garbage in the bathroom and was highly decomposed! And the unrotten parts of the body were still being digested by maggots.
Gu Nankai discovered something was wrong. It was probably because the activities of the maggots made him realize that there was something under the garbage. He didn't expect that when he picked up those things, he would see such a scene.
Shang Lu looked at the condition of the corpse and quickly thought of what the soil-like substance on the ground might be.
vomit!
Shang Lu is a girl after all. If she could have remained completely calm just now, then what scared her this time was not the state of the corpse, nor the maggots on it, but the fact that she could hardly imagine, given the state of the corpse, what kind of mentality and perseverance the person living in this room had to continue living there?
She couldn't imagine it and just felt nauseous.
The four faces under the masks all felt uncomfortable. For everyone's safety, Gu Nankai suggested that everyone go out first.
Once outside, everyone took off their masks. Although the smell was not as bad, the sweat on everyone's face had wet their hair.
Seeing Gu Nankai and the others coming out, Gao Yuan and Wu Qingluan from a distance quickly ran over, along with Yang Dong. It turned out that this guy was worried about Cao Cang and followed them. In order not to disturb Gu Nankai and the others' work, he went to help Wu Qingluan and the others after Cao Cang went in.
"How is it, did you find anything?"
With the experience just now, Wu Qingluan and the others came over with water in their hands, and handed a bottle of water to everyone while asking questions.
Gu Nankai, Li Meng and Shang Lu opened the lid and poured themselves water without saying anything. Cao Cang glanced at them and said, "Boss, they found another body in the bathroom."
"What! Another body was found?" This really shocked Gao Yuan and the others. Wu Qingluan glared, Gao Yuan said something quickly, and even Yang Dong frowned.
Shang Lu said at this time: "Let's come out for some fresh air, and then we will go in for inspection later."
Gu Nankai's face was gloomy. How many secrets were hidden in Chen Hui? First, Chen Hui died mysteriously, and now, they found a person who had been dead for a long time in the bathroom of his home.
What is hidden behind this case? This thought flashed through Gu Nankai's mind.
"Oh my God, so the gas that hit us just now was the stench of a rotting corpse?" Gao Yuan said again, and as he spoke he felt a chill on his back and shrugged.
"No." Shang Lu shook his head, his eyes full of thought.
"What is that?" Gao Yuan asked her quickly. What else could it be if not the stench of a corpse?
Shang Lu exhaled, unscrewed the lid and took a sip of water, then said, "Hydrogen sulfide, it's hydrogen sulfide."
Wu Qingluan frowned and looked at her: "What?"
Shang Lu glanced at Gu Nankai, and the two looked at each other. It was obvious that Gu Nankai had thought of something. Then Shang Lu looked at everyone and said, "Do you smell the smell of rotten eggs outside?"
"The smell of rotten eggs?" Wu Qingluan still frowned with a look of confusion. She searched her memory bank, but it seemed that she still didn't know the smell of rotten eggs even after growing up.
Shang Lu looked at Wu Qingluan with a smile: "Anyway, it stinks. It's hydrogen sulfide, colorless, transparent, and smells like rotten eggs. I think the smell that stimulated everyone just now was this thing."
"Cao Cang, what was your reaction just now?" Shang Lu looked at Cao Cang and asked.
Cao Cang thought for a moment and quickly said, "Dizziness, nausea, and vomiting."
Shang Lu followed up on his words and added: "Is it accompanied by palpitations, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and some wheezing?"
Cao Cang thought about it and nodded quickly.
"That 's it ." Shang Lu nodded, and then looked at Gu Nankai: "Boss, I didn't observe the new body up close just now. Can you see any external injuries on his body?"
Gu Nankai thought about it, but finally shook his head: "The body is highly decomposed, I didn't notice that."
Shang Lu nodded somewhat disappointedly, but still said: "Actually, I guess the body should not have any external injuries, because I think he died of poisoning."
