Colbert comforted Eudora and shone a flashlight on her, checking if she was injured. "Let me see if you got hurt anywhere."
Sitting on the ground, Eudora curled up her legs and couldn't help but mutter, "My leg hurts."
Colbert reached out and lifted her skirt, revealing a wounded knee that was bleeding and swollen.
"It's dislocated. Hold onto the phone for me."
Colbert gently touched Eudora's knee wound, making a basic assessment based on the prominence of the bone structure.
In this situation, Eudora didn't argue with Colbert. Instead, she obediently took the phone and shone the flashlight on her knee.
Then, Colbert lifted her leg, his movements very gentle. He tilted his head slightly and looked at her, saying, "Bear with me. I'll count to three and then put it back in place."
"Okay."
Eudora took a deep breath, clenching her hands tightly, her heart pounding.
She was afraid of pain, fearing that when Colbert reset her knee, she would scream.
"One..."
"Two..."
"Ah! Colbert, you said you'd count to three, but why did you start at two?"
"What's wrong?"
Colbert hurried over to her, following the light beam from her phone's flashlight, and discovered a corpse in the corner.
"The bones are lying flat on the ground. They died quietly, and no one moved them. There's also a black stain on the floor, a mark left by the decomposed body."
Colbert sat down and analyzed the situation.
After he finished speaking, Eudora immediately asked, "So, this person hasn't been dead for long. Her clothes aren't decayed either. The clothes look like the servants' uniform in your mansion, and it's a woman."
"A year ago, Grandma mentioned that a female servant went missing. At that time, we thought she had run away from home because she was an orphan and couldn't contact her relatives. We reported it to the police but couldn't find her afterward, so it was left unresolved."
