Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 220 The Origin of the Strange Female Corpse During the Autopsy
It is common knowledge that the American media is a bunch of mad dogs, or rather, journalists in any capitalist country are mad dogs.

An entire family was murdered, and a mysterious female corpse was unearthed in the basement. This was big news, and a number of media outlets were focused on it.

The media, as the voice of the people, represents the public to a certain extent, so once public pressure is suppressed...

The police could only speed up the investigation and sent the female corpse to Tommy and his son, hoping that an autopsy would yield some other clues.

Tommy and his son had no choice but to work overtime through the night.

Forensic pathologists are professionals who help the deceased speak. Their expertise is required. Autopsy is divided into four steps: external examination of the body, internal examination of the body, examination of digestive organs such as the heart and lungs, and finally, examination of the brain.

Tommy and his son's work process is no exception.

Turn on the radio and listen to the latest weather forecast.

"It's been sunny all the time lately..."

The father and son put on gloves, turned on the recording equipment, took a few pictures of the female corpse, and then began recording.

"The skin is normal, the patient is still alive, there are no signs of bleeding or bruising, and the time of death is no more than two days."

Tommy made this judgment upon looking at the female corpse lying on the stretcher, pale-faced, with her eyes closed and no wounds on her body.

Even though the female corpse was naked and well-preserved, indistinguishable from a living person, Tommy and his son's gazes did not waver in the slightest, not even lingering on the most sensitive parts.

"Continue, next step."

Tommy pried open the woman's eyes with his hands, only to be surprised to find that the pupils inside... were gray!
Gray pupils are a post-mortem reaction that only appears in people who have been dead for some time.

This is not normal!

“Dad, something’s not right,” Austin said from the side.

Tommy nodded, calming himself down. "Don't panic, keep going."

Austin nodded. He'd seen all sorts of strange things in this industry and wasn't going to panic.

But what happened next made things even stranger.

"How can your waist be so thin?"

"The wrists and ankles are both flexible; they've been broken."

"There's peat in my fingernails and hair..."

"Where's my mouth... my tongue?!"

Austin stared in astonishment at the empty mouth of the female corpse.

Breaking hands and feet, cutting out tongues, and special soil like peat...

Austin's eyes lit up.

"Dad, do you remember the human trafficking case that happened fifteen years ago? I remember there were two girls involved, right?"

Tommy thought for a moment and nodded.

"That's right, it seems we have a lead. Let's proceed with the autopsy."

The two picked up scalpels, about to begin.

But this time.

Blood suddenly flowed from the woman's nose, and a greenbottle fly emerged from it, flapping its wings, without getting a drop of blood on it.

An inexplicable force has begun to invade reality at this moment!
Hey!
The radio suddenly crackled to life, "Mom, please tell me something."

"Some things that children should know."

"That's a story about the devil."

The nursery rhymes inside seemed strangely eerie and terrifying, and Austin couldn't help but shiver.

"Don't be afraid, stay alert." Compared to his son, Tommy was much calmer, completely unaffected, and calmly changed the radio station.

But instead of having his son continue the dissection, he went to a corner of the room, took out a cross, and placed it aside.

Austin was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask.

soon.

The dissection begins.

Dissection is a terrifying and disgusting thing. You can't do it without strong mental resilience. Ordinary people feel disgusted even when killing chickens or pigs, so it would be even more unbearable when facing someone like themselves.

Because the internal organs, blood, and smell inside are not something that ordinary people can tolerate!
The sharp scalpel cut through the skin, and the dissection officially began.

However, as the autopsy progressed, more and more strange things began to appear.

"There is a lot of bleeding; this should only happen with fresh corpses."

"The thickness of the waist... no, this looks like a deformity caused by long-term compression. A corset? But weren't those worn by people hundreds of years ago?"

"Her lungs were severely blackened, which is something that only third-degree burns can cause, yet her body was completely unharmed? How did the burns penetrate her skin and reach her internal organs?"

"The heart... the liver... they're all scarred? What is this? Is this torture?"

"Wait! What's in my stomach?"

A cloth with a religious magic circle drawn on it was pulled out with tweezers.

Tommy's face was grim, but out of professional ethics, he still took the scalpel and began to cut along the skin of the female corpse. Before cutting, he glanced at the cross and found that there was no abnormality, so he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As the skin was cut open, patterns identical to the magic circle on the cloth were clearly visible on the muscle texture of the chest and on the inner surface of the skin!

Crunchy——

The morgue in the room began to sway slightly, the radio automatically switched back to the previous nursery rhyme station, and suddenly, a rumble of thunder began to sound...

Various unusual phenomena have emerged.

Tommy immediately put down what he was holding and looked at his son Austin.

"Alright, Austin, stop. Something's wrong. We need to get out of here immediately."

???

Austin was somewhat surprised. His father had always been very old-fashioned, and he never expected him to be so decisive now, but he did not hesitate and immediately nodded.

The father and son quickly walked outside.

In recent years, mysterious incidents have occurred frequently, and the police, as the city's security department, are in a high-risk position to deal with these incidents. Coroners, who have close ties with the police department, naturally know some unclear things as well.

Now, the female corpse is clearly linked to a religious ritual, greatly increasing the danger.

Of course, if it were simply related to the heretical sect, Tommy wouldn't have gone to such lengths. He's dissected corpses related to the heretical sect before, and they were all fakes!
But the strange things the corpse had done before were enough to make Tommy think of something.

There's an old saying in the East: "Better safe than sorry."

There are similar philosophical sayings in the West, so Tommy chose to have his son stop. What they've unearthed so far is enough to satisfy their demands.

"Austin, stay close to me, have you taken the cross yet?"

Tommy hurried outside as if facing a formidable enemy, giving instructions as he went, but no sound came from behind him.

He stopped abruptly, turned around abruptly, and found no one behind him.

She was just following her son, and now he's just disappeared?

But before Tommy could even shout...

Jingle Bell--

Jingle Bell--

Jingle Bell--

A faint sound of bells began to ring.

Tommy was completely stunned.

The sound of bells... There are actually quite a few bells in this morgue, but without exception, they are all hung on the ankles of the corpses, in order to confirm whether the person is really dead.

This……

A chill ran up my spine.

My entire brain was gripped by extreme terror at that moment.

Grit your teeth.

Tommy ran back.

But the door was tightly shut and couldn't be pushed open at all, and the son's screams came from inside.

Tommy started banging on the door with all his might.

boom!
entire.

The door swung open.

The scene inside was revealed.

Nothing has changed.

The woman's body was still there, and there was nothing behind the door.

However, the crematoriums where the bodies were stored all opened automatically, leaving them completely empty!
And what about Austin?
Jingle Bell--

A faint bell sounded from behind him. He turned his head sharply, but only caught a fleeting glimpse of a dark shadow.

Tommy took a deep breath, took out the crucifix in his hand, and walked towards the female corpse. He knew that all of this might be related to this female corpse.

If the mysteries surrounding this female corpse can be solved, perhaps we can find Austin.

Approaching the female corpse, he took a deep breath and began to examine it carefully.

Upon observation, he discovered that the woman's brain cells were still alive!

"Oh no, how could that be?"

Tommy exclaimed in disbelief.

what does this mean?
This means that she could feel everything he and Austin had done to her before!
She's still alive!

This had a double impact on Tommy's professional ethics and values ​​as a forensic pathologist.

He clutched his head in anguish.

But this time.

boom!
boom!
boom!
Suddenly, a loud banging came from the morgue door.

Tommy walked over quickly, but instead of opening the door, he peeked through the crack.

but……

A pair of gray eyes were staring straight at him.

!!!

Tommy's eyes widened.

Before he could react.

"dad?"

Austin's voice came from the doorway.

"Dad? Open the door, it's me."

"Austin, where did you just go?"

"I was following you, but I couldn't see you in the blink of an eye. I also heard a bell ringing on the road, and all the lights on the ceiling exploded. When I ran to find the exit, I couldn't open it."

Just then, ring ring—

The bell rang again.

Tommy didn't hesitate any longer and let Austin in.

Seeing that Austin was alright, Tommy finally breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately tensed up, "Listen to me, now we..."

Based on Tommy's limited understanding of the mysterious, they now either need to possess the power to exorcise demons or fulfill the female corpse's demands.

Otherwise, there's no need to even think about escaping.

After a brief investigation.

The father and son discovered a line written on the cloth: Leviticus Chapter 27.

Leviticus is the third book in the Pentateuch, and Moses is a well-known figure in Christianity, known for the story of Moses parting the sea.

Chapter 27 states that anyone who communicates with the undead should be put to death, because they are wizards.

Finally, in the corner, it says 1693.

Christian books, wizards, 1693, corset...

When combined, that's it.

The Salem witch trials!
This female corpse might be a witch!
If that's the case, then all the strange events they're experiencing now can be explained.

A witch who died a painful death, whose soul still lives on, filled with resentment and constantly feeling pain, now clearly wants Tommy and his son to feel that pain as well.
