"How could he die? The interrogation room is heavily guarded. What are you doing? "
Mo Fei's face was ashen and he slammed the table in a rage. He had hoped to get the mastermind out of this sniper, but in the end, he died in the interrogation room of the national security bureau.
This would have a major impact on the image of the national security bureau. Especially after the recent series of events, the higher-ups would doubt the ability of the Ninghai national security bureau.
If it was a normal case, the national security bureau, as an organization with a high level of secrecy, would have the means to suppress the matter.
However, this sniper was a terrorist who had attacked the detention center, killed someone on the street and caused a car to explode. This had an extremely negative impact on society and could not be suppressed even if they wanted to.
"That sniper was very tight-lipped and didn't want to say anything. Seeing that there was no progress, we planned to give him some psychological pressure and leave him there to dry. Who knew that he would mysteriously die. Right now, the medical examiner is doing an appraisal to find the cause of his death."
The national security bureau official shrank back in fear and reported with a terrified expression.
"Li Fei, who interrogated him? Was there no one watching the surveillance? Was there anything strange before he died? Who did he come into contact with? "
Mo Fei fired off a barrage of questions, flustered and exasperated.
"It was me and Zhang Biao who interrogated him. Fu Bin was watching the surveillance the entire time. After discovering the sniper's death, we checked the surveillance. No one came into contact with him and there was nothing strange. It was as if he had seen a ghost and died just like that."
Li Fei said somewhat uneasily. He silently cursed Zhang Biao for not having any sense of brotherhood and making him come alone to bear the thunderous anger of the director.
"Let's go, take me to see!" Mo Fei furrowed his brows. He understood the abilities of his subordinates. Since the sniper had died so strangely, he had to go take a look at the surveillance.
"I'll go with you." Shen Moru's interest was also piqued by this strange way of death and he stood up as well.
Walking along the corridor into the elevator, Mo Fei took out a magnetic card and swiped it on a striped code above the elevator button. Originally, the lowest floor was only the second floor, but the button for the third floor suddenly flipped over.
Shen Moru's expression was indifferent. He did not find it strange. In a department like the National Security Bureau, there must be many places that only people with certain authority could enter. The underground interrogation room must be one of them. It would be strange if it wasn't there.
The elevator quickly went down to the third floor. As the elevator door opened, a straight corridor paved with milky white marble appeared in front of them. The corridor was brightly lit, and on both sides were rooms made of strong and fine steel mesh. Looking through the gaps of the steel mesh, some of the rooms were empty, and some of them held prisoners in handcuffs and shackles.
Mo Fei explained, "This is our detention room. We lock up some spies who threaten our country's security. Walk further in and you will reach the interrogation room."
Shen Moru nodded. "It's an era of peace now. There shouldn't be many spies probing for intelligence. There should be more commercial spies."
"Yes, those countries that don't want to see our Shenzhou Country rise mainly use economic warfare. Ninghai is also an international metropolis with many foreign companies. Those commercial spies come to our Shenzhou Country under the guise of legality. We can't guard against them, especially those companies that are engaged in the development of new energy. There are the most commercial spies. Our work is not easy."
Mo Fei sighed with deep emotion.
"Alright, stop complaining. In the new international situation, there are new tasks and missions. What kind of work is easy? There is no end to commercial spies. After we catch a group, another group will come. As long as we fulfill our responsibility and nip the problem in the bud, preventing them from harming our country's interests, that is also a kind of victory. "
Shen Moru comforted him with deep emotion.
"Sometimes, I really miss the days when I was a soldier. I sweated like rain on the training ground. At the time, I felt it was very hard, but now that I think about it, it is the most precious memory of my life. Compared to the hard work now, life back then was simpler."
Mo Fei sighed, a look of reminiscence flashing in his eyes.
Shen Moru did not speak and maintained his silence. Leaving Dragon Soul was not what he wanted. He also wanted to return to the past and be with those brothers. Even if he bled and cried, he would still live comfortably.
However, that was already impossible. The past was the past. There were too many responsibilities and obligations in life. One could not live according to one's own preferences. This was called maturity.
As they spoke, they passed through the corridor and arrived at the interrogation room. It was different from the interrogation room that most people imagined would be filled with all kinds of torture devices. This was just an ordinary room.
It was very tidy and clean. Several comrades from the national security bureau were working with a forensic doctor and his assistant to perform an autopsy on the sniper. When they saw Shen Moru and Mo Fei, they hurriedly greeted them respectfully.
Mo Fei waved at a shrewd-looking middle-aged man. "Fu Bin, tell me what happened."
Fu Bin walked over and said with a bitter expression, "Chief Mo, I stared at the surveillance screen the whole time and didn't even blink. This guy kept his head down and didn't open his mouth no matter how Li Fei and the others interrogated him. After Li Fei and the others came out, this guy also maintained the same posture and didn't move. But after less than ten minutes, I realized that something was wrong. I hurriedly went in to take a look and who knew that he would die."
"Oh, how did you realize that something was wrong with him?" Shen Moru asked as he looked around thoughtfully.
"His chest was still rising and falling slightly but after Li Fei and the others came out, at most three minutes, his head suddenly rose and his legs twitched slightly on the ground. But it was very short and he quickly lowered his head again. At the time, I didn't pay much attention. About five or six minutes later, I realized that he didn't move at all. Even the rise and fall of his chest seemed to have disappeared. Only then did I feel that something was wrong and went in to take a look. Only then did I realize that he was already dead."
Fu Bin carefully recalled, speaking slowly but in great detail.
"Has the cause of death been determined?" Shen Moru looked at the white-haired old forensic doctor who had already started to wash his hands.
The old forensic doctor continued to wash his hands unhurriedly until he meticulously wiped his hands with a white towel. Only then did he slowly answer with certainty,
"The deceased died of homicide. His heart was pierced by a sharp object and his heart stopped pumping blood. As the blood supply to his brain stopped, he gradually died of hypoxia."
"That's impossible. I've been staring at the surveillance screen. No one went in at all. The surveillance footage is here and can definitely prove it. How could the murderer kill the suspect in front of us?"
Fu Biao was the first to express his disagreement with this conclusion. He even retrieved the surveillance footage and started playing it.
"Yes, all of us are here and no one went in at all. How could it be a homicide?"
"I can prove that when Li Fei and Zhang Biao came out, he was still alive and well. After they came out, no one else went in. It can't be a homicide. Elder Fang, are you mistaken?"
"When the suspect was found dead, there were only the six of us at the scene. I can prove that what Fu Biao said is true. If it was a homicide, how could we not see someone go in?"
The six members of the national security bureau all opened their mouths to question the judgment of the old forensic doctor called Elder Fang.
However, Elder Fang shrugged his shoulders and was not angry. He said irresponsibly, "I'm just a forensic doctor. I'm only responsible for the results of my examination. My conclusion is that it was a homicide. As for solving the case, that's your problem."
Mo Fei seemed to respect Elder Fang very much. He asked with some respect, "Elder Fang, is your conclusion the final cause of death of the deceased?"
Elder Fang nodded with some pride. "Yes, my conclusion is absolutely correct. If it was someone else who examined, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to find the cause of death. The murderer moved very quickly and pierced the deceased's heart in less than a second. There wasn't even a drop of blood. After the deceased's heart was pierced, there should have been a short period of struggle. However, due to the lack of blood supply to the brain, he gradually died. This process wouldn't have taken more than three minutes."
"Could it be that the moment the suspect raised his head? But that's impossible. In the surveillance footage, there was no one else in the room except the suspect."
Fu Bin refuted with a face full of confusion.
Elder Fang swung his sleeves unhappily. "It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Anyway, this is the conclusion I came to. If you don't believe me, you can find another forensic doctor to examine it."
Mo Fei frowned and waved his hand at the unconvinced Fu Bin. He continued to ask Elder Fang, "Elder Fang, may I ask what weapon the murderer used?"
"It was ice. A very thin ice needle formed from ice. If it wasn't for Mr. Fang's sharp eyes, he wouldn't have been able to discover what weapon the murderer used."
Elder Fang's assistant was a young man in his twenties. He was very dissatisfied with the national security bureau questioning his teacher's professionalism and replied angrily.
"Ice?" Everyone was dumbfounded by this unexpected answer. "That's right.
It was ice, and it was a very, very thin ice needle. When I first performed the autopsy, I searched his entire body but couldn't find any wounds. I thought he had died of heart failure, but I found that the deceased's body was very healthy. There were no hidden diseases, and there were no problems with his heart. I thought this was very strange, so I carefully examined him again. In the end, I found that there was an almost imperceptible water stain on his chest. This made me feel very strange because I asked Zhang Biao. During the interrogation, the deceased didn't drink any water. He and Li Fei also didn't drink water, so where did the water stain come from? I sniffed it again. That water stain didn't have a strange smell, so I determined that it wasn't the deceased's saliva. Then, I made a bold deduction. Following this train of thought, I used a magnifying glass to examine the deceased's clothes again. I found that there was an extremely fine hole in the fabric of his clothes that had water stain on his chest. Only then did I confirm the true cause of his death. Once the ice entered the heart, it would be melted by the blood, and the bleeding caused by the puncture was also very small. As the walls of the heart contracted, it would be very difficult to discover. If the water stain dried up after a while, it would be almost impossible to find the true fatal wound. The murderer was definitely a very professional killer. "
Elder Fang pointed at the almost dried water stain on the deceased's chest and exclaimed in admiration.
Everyone gathered around and took turns to use the magnifying glass to examine the deceased's clothes. When they saw that there wasn't even a drop of blood on the deceased's chest, they couldn't help but be shocked. If it wasn't for an experienced old forensic doctor like Elder Fang, they might not even be able to find the cause of death.
After sending off Elder Fang and Elder Fang, the cause of death had been confirmed. However, there was another problem. The surveillance cameras had faithfully recorded everything. When the suspect died, no one entered the interrogation room. Who was the murderer?
The members of the national security bureau secretly looked at each other with caution. Currently, the only people who had contact with the deceased were Li Fei, Zhang Biao, and Fu Bin. They were also the biggest suspects.
However, Shen Moru asked thoughtfully, "Li Fei, when you and Zhang Biao were interrogating the suspect, did you feel anything strange?"
Zhang Biao's face was full of confusion. "Nothing strange."
