It was a serious case of assault and murder. One police officer was seriously injured, and the other died in the line of duty.
By the time the police and ambulances arrived, it was too late. The murderer had escaped, and Ma Xiang was pronounced dead on the spot.
However, the police officer who was stabbed at the entrance of the alley did not die. Although his vitals were injured, he persevered until he reached the hospital for emergency treatment.
As for Ma Xiang, his body was placed in the morgue, and few people cared about it.
The special task force from the bureau rushed to the hospital and rushed to the emergency room to wait for the police officer to come out.
The only people who came to see Ma Xiang were his father, the police chief, and the policewoman, Tang Jing.
Looking at his father's aged appearance, Lan Mu stood with his head lowered and did not say a word.
Tang Jing saw Lan Mu and finally recognized him. She did not care why Lan Mu was a cross-dresser. She only pulled him and asked softly, "Were you at the scene?"
Lan Mu nodded slowly.
Tang Jing said, "How did he dare to rush to the front? How did he dare to catch the murderer himself? "
Hearing this, Lan Mu felt even more pained in his heart.
Without him, Ma Xiang might not have dared to catch the murderer himself.
If he had not shown his speed ability, if he had not blocked the murderer's path, if he had not taken him down so easily … Perhaps he would not have forced the murderer to kill Ma Xiang in order to escape.
This was all caused by his carelessness. No one would have thought that the person was so ruthless.
At this time, Lan Mu already understood that the person might not be a reporter at all, but a skilled murderer. He was ruthless and should be related to the dismemberment case.
Tang Jing saw that he was in pain and did not say anything. She sighed and did not ask.
Soon, Cheng Ming also arrived at the hospital. As soon as he rushed over, he asked, "What's going on? What the f * ck is going on? "
His voice was very loud, and it immediately broke the silence.
If Ma Xiang was the one being saved, Ma Xiang's father might have reprimanded Cheng Ming. But now that he was dead, his father was no longer in the mood to reprimand him.
Cheng Ming came over and saw the crowd. Tang Jing was a woman, so he rushed to Father Ma, who was in a police uniform. He grabbed Father Ma's collar and shouted, "What are you police doing? Has the murderer been caught? I'll cripple him! "
Lan Mu rushed up and pushed Cheng Ming away. He pressed him down on the chair and said, "Calm down! This is Ma Xiang's father! "
Cheng Ming was stunned and embarrassed. He hurriedly apologized to the director. He didn't know Ma Xiang's father.
Father Ma heaved a long sigh and forced himself to pull himself together. Cheng Ming's words reminded him that the murderer was still at large. Although he was old, he had not reached the stage where he would lose his willpower!
"You must be Ma Xiang, right? Lan Mu, right? "Father Ma knew Lan Mu. It was obvious that Ma Xiang often mentioned Lan Mu.
Lan Mu respectfully replied, "Yes. My condolences. "
Father Ma nodded and waved his hand. "Come with me!"
Lan Mu followed Ma Xiang's father and left, leaving Cheng Ming standing there. He still didn't know what was going on and could only listen to Tang Jing's explanation.
Father Ma directly took Lan Mu to the police station. After entering the director's office, he began to question Lan Mu alone to understand the situation.
Facing Ma Xiang's father, Lan Mu didn't hide anything. He explained the situation in detail, including the fact that he was brought by Ma Xiang to secretly take photos.
Ma Xiang was his son. He had died in the line of duty. There was no point in investigating the matter of letting a friend secretly take photos.
On the contrary, he took the situation very seriously.
"You're saying that Ma Xiang thought he was a reporter, so he dared to catch him alone?"
Lan Mu nodded. "That's right. It's all my fault. If I had helped, I wouldn't have …"
Father Ma waved his hand and smiled bitterly. "It has nothing to do with you. I know this child very well. He is very independent. He wants to rely on his own abilities for everything. I …"
After saying a few words, Father Ma couldn't continue. After calming down a little, he said resolutely.
"The murderer won't get away with it. He can't run!"
"Lan Mu, immediately help us draw the murderer's appearance. Since he showed his face, we will definitely catch him!"
Lan Mu had been waiting for the police station to summon him. This matter should have been directly handled by the police station. However, Ma Xiang's father, who was the director, seemed to want to solve the case himself and didn't inform the police station immediately.
He thought about it and gave the material to Father Ma. He also told him that it was the murderer's appearance.
Father Ma's eyes were like torches. "Good! Good! Lan Mu, the police station will send someone to look for you in a while. You don't have to hide the other things. Just cooperate. "
Lan Mu smiled but didn't say anything. He didn't directly agree to this.
Ma Xiang's father wanted to investigate the case in private. Lan Mu wouldn't stay idle either. He was definitely going to take care of this case.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the police station to find him and ask him to cooperate.
Lan Mu didn't say anything and just left with them.
What followed was an entire day of questioning. To these police officers, Lan Mu only said that he saw his good brother Ma Xiang when he was passing by. Then, he found a guy who seemed to be a reporter. Then, the other party ran away and they chased after him until the other party suddenly killed someone.
No matter how many times the police asked, Lan Mu's answer was the same.
As for the murderer's appearance, Lan Mu described it seriously. He also wanted the police to find that person.
It was nighttime again when Lan Mu finally returned home.
During the questioning, Cheng Ming called him countless times. Lan Mu only replied then.
"Brother Mu! What did you do? Why did you put on makeup? "
"Cheng Ming, it's nothing. I was at the scene. The police wanted to ask me some questions. Also, help me with Ma Xiang's funeral … "
Cheng Ming said sadly, "How did this happen? How am I going to explain this to Xiao Ling! "
"Xiao Ling?"
"Brother Mu, have you forgotten? She's Ma Xiang's fiancée! They're engaged! "
Hearing this, Lan Mu hesitated for a long time. He didn't know what to do.
He could only say, "You have to tell her …"
"But I have something to do these days. You take care of it first!"
Cheng Ming said angrily, "What do you have to do? What's more important than Ma Xiang's funeral? "
Lan Mu was silent for a while, then said, "Yes! Ma Xiang can't die in vain. "
After hanging up the phone, Lan Mu took a deep breath and walked home quickly.
He had decided that he would take revenge for Ma Xiang with his own hands!
Not only Ma Xiang's murderer, no matter who was behind him, he wanted to find all the criminals related to the autopsy case, one by one.
Punish them personally!
Ma Xiang was one of his best friends. He was about to get married, but he died in the line of duty.
Lan Mu couldn't accept that he had turned a blind eye to it. He had to pay for it with his own blood.
He didn't believe in the efficiency of the police. Instead of waiting for the murderer to be arrested, it was better to find the murderer himself.
He didn't want the murderer to be punished, but revenge!
When Lan Mu returned home, he accompanied Su Yue as usual. After Su Yue went to her room, he began to look for clothes.
He found a black hoodie that he had worn a few years ago, covered his head with the hood and zipped it up high. Then, he put on a pair of jeans and went out directly.
He didn't come back until the next day. That night, he had walked through a third of Shanghai. All the trees on the streets had been transformed by him with the Force of Nature.
He also communicated the murderer's appearance to them. Whenever they met this person, the transformed trees would remember it. When Lan Mu was nearby, they would inform him.
Originally, trees had a great affinity with fairies. After the transformation, they had the potential to communicate with fairies.
He wanted to turn all the trees in Shanghai into his eyes and ears. No evil could escape the will of nature.
…
For three days, Lan Mu worked day and night. Finally, he had transformed all the trees in Shanghai.
Not only was he not tired, but he also felt refreshed.
The conversion of life energy between him and the trees seemed to have a slight benefit to him.
In these three days, not only did he not feel hungry, but his Force of Nature had also become richer.
Wherever there were trees, his Force of Nature would cover the place.
However, there were still no clues to find the murderer.
Lan Mu was a little disappointed. This was really a stupid method. Although he had spies all over the city, it was still useless if the murderer didn't go out.
"Where is he hiding?"
On the fifth day after Lan Mu transformed into a fairy, he didn't look for the murderer anymore.
Because today was the day of Ma Xiang's funeral.
Ma Xiang's family, classmates, friends, and colleagues from the police station had all come.
Lan Mu even saw a woman crying very sadly. She was the same as the photo on Ma Xiang's phone. It was his fiancée, Xiao Ling.
Cheng Ming and Lan Mu had been helping at the funeral. These days, it was mainly Cheng Ming who accompanied Ma Xiang's family to take care of the funeral.
Ma Xiang had been burned to ashes. He was carried by his mother all the way until he was finally buried on Mingjia Mountain.
At night, most of the people left, leaving only a few close friends.
The policemen from the police station were still there. After all, their leader was Ma Xiang's father. Whether they were sincere or not, they at least stayed with him until the end.
After the funeral, the meal was also finished.
Lan Mu chatted with Ma Xiang's father alone and asked about the progress of the police investigation.
Ma Xiang's father shook his head and said, "The video you provided did capture the murderer's appearance. I checked. His name is Yu Hetu, 23 years old this year. He graduated from a technical school and came to Shanghai to work. Because he pursued the female manager of the company, he was accused of harassment and lost his job. He was fired last month."
"Don't tell me …" Lan Mu was stunned.
"Yes, he is the biggest suspect in the autopsy case. Because the female manager was the first victim in the autopsy case, he almost has a motive."
"It's so obvious. Why did the police investigate for so long? When the female manager died, they should have suspected him long ago! "Lan Mu was shocked.
Ma Xiang's father shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. The bureau investigated him before. He has an absolute alibi."
"What alibi?"
"He was detained at the police station around the time of the female manager's death, so it's impossible for him to commit the crime."
"Ah?"
"He was accused of molesting a woman and was arrested."
Lan Mu thought about it and said, "He must have an accomplice! That accomplice took revenge on the female manager for him. Because he must be the biggest suspect, he deliberately let him molest a woman and was detained to create an alibi. "
Ma Xiang's father nodded and said, "Yes, I know now. But it's too late. When we went to arrest him, we couldn't find him. He didn't even clean up the things in the house. Obviously, after he killed … Ma Xiang, he didn't go back to the rented house at all. Instead, he went into hiding. "
"We searched all the illegal hotels, illegal Internet cafes, and even entertainment venues for the past few days, but we couldn't find him. There's a great possibility that he's hiding in someone's house. It's very likely that it's the accomplice's house. But we don't know who it is, and it's impossible to search everyone's house. "
"We can only wait in various places and check the surveillance cameras to try to find him."
Lan Mu asked, "What about the surveillance cameras?"
"The surveillance cameras showed that after he ran away that day, the place where he disappeared was Pinghu Pedestrian Street. There are no surveillance cameras there, so we haven't found out where he went. "
Ma Xiang's father said, "But he can't run away! As long as he's still in Shanghai, I'll definitely catch him! I don't believe that he'll never appear! "
"Even if he's been hiding in the houses, we'll search every house and find him!"
Lan Mu nodded. He knew that the police would eventually find him. Now, all the police in the city were looking for Yu Hetu. He could hide for a while, but he couldn't hide forever.
However, Lan Mu wasn't going to wait for the police to find him. After confirming the last place where Yu Hetu disappeared, Lan Mu left.
