Deadly Delivery

Chapter 83: Xiaomei

Views:

Who would have thought that after so many years, I would actually be able to witness with my own eyes this "ingredient" that only appears in novels, but I did not feel any excitement. On the contrary, what I got was the infinitely magnified childhood shadow.

Because of a few unexpected things, I discovered the crime scene that had been hidden for many days. At the crime scene, I found many incredible things. I now have only one thought, that is, the murderer's imagination is really too big. He will do anything that is disgusting, and he doesn't care whether the people who come to investigate can bear it.

When the forensic doctor Xiao Zhang said that the bowl of tofu pudding was actually human brain, all of us were so scared that we kept backing away from the bowl of tofu pudding. The old security guard simply could not accept such a disgusting fact and turned around and left the scene. I was also so disgusted by everything at the scene that I was about to collapse. I said goodbye to Officer Yang and Xiao Zhang, went downstairs to find Zhang Qishan, and left with Zhang Qishan. I never want to come to this damn place again.

Not to mention me, even Zhang Qishan was completely devastated by what she saw today and had no mood or appetite. After saying goodbye to me, she went home to rest. I also took Diandian home and lay in bed, not wanting to move at all. Anyway, I had decided that I would never eat anything today, even if I starved to death.

I lay in bed, trying hard not to think about those disgusting scenes, clearing my mind, and began to sort out everything I had learned in the past two days.

The identity of the deceased has not been investigated yet, and there is no detailed explanation for the blood, corpse and bowl of disgusting human brains at the scene. So although I have found a lot of clues, I still have no direction to continue the investigation. I guess only when Xiao Zhang has identified everything, I will know what to do next.

Before leaving, I told Officer Yang to investigate Liu Gang, the owner of the Red Star Hotel, and also to find out as soon as possible who the person who delivered the meat to the small noodle restaurant was, because no matter how it looked now, the butcher who delivered the meat was a huge suspect in the crime.

Another thing is that Officer Yang needs to investigate the surveillance video of that community and the mysterious figure that I saw. After Diandian's reaction last time, we successfully found the residence of the deceased. So Diandian had such a strong reaction when he saw that figure, there must be some kind of relationship that we haven't figured out yet.

In addition, there are two other people who are suspects and have motives in this case. The first one is the deceased's former boyfriend whom I speculated before. In my opinion, the motive of killing for love does exist, but this clue must first find out the true identity of the deceased and her emotional history.

The second suspect is Liu Gang's current wife. When I was listening to the discussions of the aunties downstairs, I noticed that the aunt who claimed to know the inside story used the word "mistress" to describe the deceased, proving that Liu Gang, who supported the deceased, was married. If Liu Gang's wife knew that her husband had a mistress outside, would she be so angry that she killed the deceased

To sum up, today's investigation at the deceased's home, although many technical aspects require Xiao Zhang to investigate, it cannot be said to be completely fruitless for me. At least now, I have a direction for the investigation. Now I just need to wait patiently for Officer Yang to inform me of Xiao Zhang's test results.

Now that everything is clear, I no longer worry about it. I turn on my computer and continue on my journey to gold. However, there is always a vague and strange idea in my mind, that is, I seem to be very passive in this case. It feels that everything is going so smoothly, as if it makes no difference whether I am there or not. This feeling of being led by the nose makes me feel really unhappy.

I played games for the entire afternoon but still failed to make it to the gold promotion match. Just when I was about to go against my decision and go out to eat something, Officer Yang called and asked me to go to the police station immediately, saying that Xiao Zhang had made a major discovery.

I was very excited when I got the news. I immediately forgot about my hunger and ran to the police station with Diandian. I soon arrived at Officer Yang's office.

In Officer Yang's office, besides Officer Yang and Xiao Zhang, there were two younger-looking police officers. Various neatly organized documents were placed on the desk, and Xiao Zhang was holding a transparent bag in his hand. I only took a look and didn't want to look at it anymore, because it contained half a palm-sized piece of cooked meat.

When I entered the office, I was about to say hello to Officer Yang, but Diandian suddenly seemed to go crazy and started barking at the bag of cooked human meat in Xiao Zhang's hand. Xiao Zhang was frightened and suddenly didn't know what to do. He stood there and didn't dare to move.

I knew that Diandian must have smelled the scent of her owner's previous life from the bag in Xiao Zhang's hand, which was why she became so manic. I looked apologetic and wanted Diandian to stop barking, but no matter how I shouted, Diandian just wouldn't listen to me.

Officer Yang looked very annoyed and immediately ordered a young police officer beside him to take Diandian out of the office, which made the office quiet.

Without the noisy barking of dogs, Officer Yang called me over and said, "Xiao Zhang spent an afternoon testing all the suspicious points at the crime scene. These are the test results. I guarantee you will not have expected them!"

It seemed that Officer Yang was not joking with me. I immediately picked up the thick pile of documents on the table. After just a glance at the large number of English symbols and chemical terms on them, I felt a headache. I threw the documents aside and said, "Officer Yang, you should just tell me directly. How long do you want me to read so many documents?"

Officer Yang seemed to realize that this was a bit stupid. He held out his hand and asked me to sit down. Then he said, "This document says that the female corpse's head found in the house and the rotten internal organs left in the bathroom are completely consistent with the DNA sequence of the human flesh we found in the noodle shop yesterday. In other words, it can now be completely confirmed that the deceased in XX community and the deceased in the noodle shop human flesh case are the same person. The two cases can be handled together."

Although we have already speculated about this, I am still a little excited now that we have received a positive answer.

Although Officer Yang looked very tired at this time, his spirits were still very full. He continued, "But Xiao Zhang compared the bloodstains on the solid wooden door of the bathroom at the crime scene with the fist marks on the surface, and found that the bloodstains were not from the deceased. More importantly, the bowl of human brains found in the kitchen of the deceased's home was neither from the deceased nor from the person who left the bloodstains on the door. In other words, it seems that at least two victims have been killed in this case!"

In fact, I had thought of the conclusion drawn by Officer Yang before, because I had also been to the deceased's bedroom and saw the deceased's head. I did not see any obvious scars on the deceased's head at the time, so I thought that if that bowl of tofu pudding was really a human brain, then it must have belonged to another deceased person whom we have not yet found.

But the bloodstains on the bathroom door were a little puzzling. If the murderer had left them there unintentionally, why would he do that? In my opinion, if a person hits a door with his fist, there are only two possibilities: either he is too excited and loses control, or he is too angry and loses his mind. I think the second possibility is more likely.

In general, Xiao Zhang's forensic identification was quite useful this time, and it made me want to learn some forensic knowledge, because I feel that being a forensic doctor really has a kind of coolness that others can hardly understand.

Now that I had the information I wanted, I asked, "What about the identity of the deceased?"

"The deceased is named Xiaomei (pseudonym), from Changsha, Hunan, 23 years old this year. She came to Zhongwei City to work last year and had been working as a receptionist at the Red Star Hotel. According to her colleagues, Xiaomei seemed to have not come to work since a week ago, and she did not answer the phone. Everyone in the hotel knew that Xiaomei had an ambiguous relationship with the hotel owner Liu Gang, and thought that they had a conflict, so they did not pay much attention. According to Xiaomei's colleagues, the last time they saw Xiaomei, she seemed to be in a bad mood. A friend asked her what happened, but she did not say. After leaving get off work, Xiaomei was never seen again."

It was indeed the case. Xiaomei must have met the wealthy boss Liu Gang while working at the Red Star Hotel, and was therefore valued and supported by Liu Gang, which is why she could live such an extravagant life. If Xiaomei was in a bad mood when she was seen by her colleagues at the end, then Liu Gang must know something.

"What about Liu Gang? Have you investigated him?"

Officer Yang said helplessly: "Liu Gang is not in Zhongwei City now. It seems that he went out of town for a trip a week ago and has not returned yet. However, we have contacted Liu Gang and asked him to come back as soon as possible to cooperate with our investigation. I estimate that he will be back tomorrow at the latest."

"A week ago? Isn't that the time when the deceased Xiaomei died? Isn't this too much of a coincidence?" I couldn't help but ask when I heard what Officer Yang said.

Officer Yang nodded and said, "Yes, we also think this is a very coincidental incident, so now, he has been listed as suspect number two by us."

"Number two? Then who is suspect number one?"

Officer Yang smiled mysteriously and said, "We have found the butcher's true identity and home address based on the portrait of the butcher provided by the noodle shop owner. The number one suspect is naturally this mysterious butcher!"
