Wei Muran was too lazy to explain his relationship with Qi Youxuan, so he didn't say anything.
"Captain Jiang." As he walked, Wei Muran suddenly heard Bai Foaming call him. Her voice, which was slightly high-pitched when she spoke to her, didn't change much, but she could still feel the gentleness and surprise in her voice.
Wei Muran raised his brows and turned to look at Bai Foaming. She was smiling so brightly that she was trying her best to exude charm.
Wei Muran looked at Bai Foaming in horror and then at Captain Jiang, feeling as if he had discovered something.
However, unlike Bai Foaming's enthusiasm, Jiang Yuecheng just nodded indifferently. His distant attitude was no different from others. "Medical Examiner Bai."
Bai Foaming looked at the handsome and reserved man standing in front of her. He walked to her side without a trace and conveniently separated Wei Muran.
Jiang Yuecheng was very famous in the police station, not because he was handsome or had a good temperament, but because of his family background. Everyone knew that he was here to train and would be promoted in a few years.
"Captain Jiang, we've been colleagues for so long, but you still call me Medical Examiner Bai. It sounds so distant." Bai Foaming chuckled with a coquettish tone but not annoying.
However, Wei Muran couldn't stand to stay at the side anymore. He felt like a third wheel. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Bai Foaming say, "Muran, when are you going to introduce your boyfriend to us officially? That way, he won't find excuses to come here and throw his phone to report the case. It's not our business anyway."
Wei Muran didn't understand. If Bai Foaming wanted to pursue Captain Jiang, it was fine. Why did she have to drag her into this? This was also one of the reasons why she didn't like Bai Foaming.
People's fate was very strange. On the first day Wei Muran came to report, she was introduced by the seniors everywhere. When she first saw Bai Foaming, she knew she didn't like her even before they spoke.
This feeling was related to fate and intuition.
"He's not my boyfriend," Wei Muran said indifferently, but she felt uncomfortable saying it out loud. She was very unwilling to admit it.
She narrowed her eyes and said, "I'll tell him not to always come and make trouble."
Jiang Yuecheng glanced at her, lowered his eyes and didn't say anything.
Bai Mo returned to her forensics room, and Wei Muran followed Jiang Yuecheng into the office. As soon as they entered, they smelled like pancakes and tofu pudding. Zhang Ming was snoring as he ate.
Wei Muran didn't expect that Zhang Mingming, who had a good relationship with Qi Youxuan since childhood, would also become a police officer. When he was young, his name was Zhang Mingming, but when he grew up, he felt that this name was too childish, so he simply removed the Ming from his name. Even so, Zhang Ming still felt that his name was too ordinary.
Zhang Ming said that even elementary school English textbooks were too embarrassed to give him this name. His parents were too careless when they gave him this name.
Zhang Ming was actually a son who inherited his father's business. His father used to be the chief of this bureau, but was later promoted to the Ministry of National Defense. According to Zhang Ming's mother's intentions, she didn't want Zhang Ming Ming to be in this line of work. She wanted him to go out and start his own business. She didn't expect him to make a lot of money, as long as he was safe and sound. Who knew that Zhang Ming Ming would still pass the exam and enter the police force.
He joined later than Jiang Yuecheng, and their backgrounds were about the same. Zhang Ming lost in terms of experience, so he was now the vice-captain. Because of his name, he resolutely didn't allow others to call him by his name, so he called him vice-captain Zhang.
Only Qi Youxuan kept calling him Zhang Ming Ming, and he even called him especially loudly. Now that everyone knew that he used to be called Zhang Ming Ming, Zhang Ming was so angry that he immediately went to settle the score with Qi Youxuan.
Once he saw them, Zhang Ming hurriedly stuffed the last bit of jianbing into his mouth and drank a few mouthfuls of tofu pudding.
His gaze swept across Jiang Yuecheng and Wei Muran, and he used the excuse of throwing out the trash to sneak outside to make a call. "Youxuan, Jiang Yuecheng and Muran entered the office together this morning."
If Wei Muran heard it, he would definitely know. No wonder Qi Youxuan knew all her whereabouts like the back of his hand ever since she joined the police force. So there was a mole!
…
Zhang Ming hung up the phone and returned to the office. He opened the window to let out some fresh air.
"Captain, vice-captain, something happened." Zhao Yiyang walked in, suppressing his thirst, and said in one breath, "We just received a report that a body was found in the western suburbs."
After saying that, he poured himself a glass of water. "We don't know the specifics yet. We only know that it's an old man. The person who reported it is a villager nearby, and he's terrified."
"Tell everyone to gather. We're all going over." Jiang Yuecheng picked up his phone and car keys and went out first.
Wei Muran and the others quickly followed.
…
Bai Mo was examining the deceased. Wei Muran hadn't been in the police force for long, and he didn't expect his first case to be so bloody.
The body was originally buried at the foot of the mountain. Perhaps because of the sudden rainstorm that started the day before yesterday and lasted until last night, the soil at the foot of the mountain was washed away, and the body was exposed.
"Captain Jiang, the person who found the body is called Zhao Zhengguo, 41 years old from the nearby Zhao Village. Today, he came to the mountain to catch some cicadas to sell at the market. Because of the rainstorm, he found a leg sticking out of the ground. He found the body at 7 in the morning. He was scared out of his wits and ran back to tell his family about it. He only remembered to call the police after someone reminded him, "Zhao Yiyang said.
Bai Mo was wearing a mask and gloves. She squatted beside the body, then stood up and took off her mask. "The deceased is between 70 to 75 years old. The time of death is estimated to be between 23 to 1. The specific time will only be known after a detailed examination. The deceased was stabbed several times in the chest. Currently, it can be seen that there were four stabs, but because the wounds were all rotten, the specifics will need to be analyzed. But the fatal stab was in the middle. But now it can be seen that this wasn't the primary crime scene. “
Bai Mo frowned and said, "But because of the heavy rain, a lot of clues were destroyed."
Jiang Yuecheng nodded and asked someone to bring the body back.
"Captain Jiang." Xing Jiadong went to the village to ask questions and came back. "I've already asked. The villagers don't know the deceased. He's not from around here."
Bai Mo said that this wasn't the primary crime scene, so Jiang Yuecheng didn't have much hope of finding the identity of the deceased here. "Go back and compare it in the system."
…
Everyone rushed back to the police station and saw the technician Yang Shaozhan standing at the office door with a strange expression.
"Muran, that person came to report again." Yang Shaozhan saw Wei Muran as if he saw his savior.
Wei Muran was speechless.
"Aiyo, what did you lose this time?" Zhang Ming winked and asked, completely enjoying the show.
"…" Yang Shaozhan said speechlessly, "He said it's a wallet."
"Aiya, our criminal investigation team really can't do anything about this." Zhang Ming raised his voice and transmitted it into the office.
"…" Wei Muran walked into the office speechlessly and saw Qi Youxuan sitting inside as if he was sitting in his own home.
That's right, he changed his reasons to come here every day and was already familiar with this place.
The day before yesterday, he lost his credit card, yesterday he lost his phone, today he lost his wallet. Anyway, he lost something every day.
Every time he told him that this place doesn't care, he still came to "report" every day.
The current Qi Youxuan didn't look like the chubby boy he was when he was young. He still vaguely had his old facial features, but when he didn't speak, he looked even colder. Of course, that was only when he was not talking.
"Muran, come out for a while," Jiang Yuecheng suddenly said at the door.
Wei Muran glanced at Qi Youxuan and went out with his head down.
"Muran, no matter what your relationship with Qi Youxuan is, I hope that you can focus on your work in the police force. Because he's your friend, we didn't stop him from coming here every day, but we don't want it to affect your work. Especially now that you've accepted a case and are busy. "Jiang Yuecheng's tone was flat, but Wei Muran was still very ashamed.
"Captain, I'm sorry to have caused trouble for everyone. I won't do it again," Wei Muran said. He didn't dare to look at Jiang Yuecheng's face, so he turned and rushed into the office, grabbing Qi Youxuan and walking out.
Qi Youxuan felt like he was walking a puppy when she was holding his tie. He was very speechless.
"Mumu …" Qi Youxuan was dragged by her and called out from behind.
"Can you stop messing around?" Wei Muran pulled him to the corner. "I'm telling you, don't mess around anymore. I've been very busy recently. There was a big case today, so I really don't have time to play with you."
Qi Youxuan opened his mouth and wanted to say that he wasn't playing, but Wei Muran turned and walked away without giving him a chance to speak.
Qi Youxuan squinted and watched Wei Muran run back to the office in a hurry.
Case?
…
"Captain Jiang, the identity of the deceased has been confirmed." Yang Shaozhan gave the deceased's information to Jiang Yuecheng. "The deceased's name is Zheng Wentao, 72 years old, and he lives at 52 Xiangyang Road, Nancheng District. He has a son and two daughters, a grandson and a granddaughter. Both of his granddaughters don't live with him. Only he and his wife live at home. He went missing a week ago, and the police received a report, but they haven't found him. I've already informed his family to come and claim him. "
Jiang Yuecheng nodded and said, "Jia Dong, go and see if Bai has the result.
"Captain Jiang, just give me a call." Bai Mo was still wearing a white coat. She walked in with a faint smile and a document in her hand.
"The result is out?" Jiang Yuecheng looked serious.
Bai Mo nodded and handed the document to him. "The time of death was between 11 and 12 o 'clock last night. He was abused for a long time before he died. There's not much food in his stomach, which means that he hasn't eaten for a while. There are whip wounds and abrasions on his body. Some of the whip wounds were left yesterday. The fatal injury was the few stabs on his chest. His chest was stabbed six times, and the knife wounds were messy, which means that he was stabbed in a panic. The first two stabs were slightly off the mark and weren't fatal. The fatal injury was on the third stab. As for the last three stabs, the murderer might have been too panicked and didn't know if the deceased was dead or not, so he stabbed him three times in a row. "
"He must have been in pain before he died like this." Wei Muran frowned.
How much hatred did a 72-year-old man have to make him suffer so much?
"Muran, I think we're handling a case now. Let's do business. How about you let me finish? You can use your sympathy after work. " Bai Mo said in a professional tone with displeasure of being interrupted. In contrast, Wei Muran was very unprofessional, as if he was handling a case with personal feelings.
"Hehe, Muran just graduated and came here for a few months. Everyone has this kind of time." Zhao Yiyang smoothed things over. "Forensics Bai, continue."
Bai Mo only shook her head at Wei Muran in disappointment before looking at Jiang Yuecheng. Seeing that he didn't have much of a reaction, she said, "Apart from these wounds, there are no signs of struggle on the deceased's body. Because of the rainstorm, a lot of clues might have been washed away. I've already taken his clothes to be tested. I hope we can find something. "
As soon as Bai Mo's voice fell, a heart-wrenching cry came from outside.
"Old man! Old man! "
Everyone went out and saw an old lady being supported by two women. She looked like she was going to faint from crying at any time.
Seeing Jiang Yuecheng and the others coming out, she immediately shook off her two daughters' hands and grabbed him. "Comrade police, you must catch the murderer and avenge my wife! Comrade police! "
Wei Muran went to make tea. When he came back, he finally saw that the old lady had calmed down a little, but she was still crying.
"We have some questions to ask you now. Please tell us as much as possible in detail so that we can find the murderer," Jiang Yuecheng said.
The old lady nodded and said while crying, "Ask me. I'll definitely tell you everything I know."
"When did Old Mr. Zheng go missing?"
"Just a week ago, no more, no less. It happened to be a week ago today." The old lady cried. "He always goes to the morning market in the morning. He buys all the vegetables in our house. Who knew that after he went out that morning, he never came back. If I knew … if I knew it would be like this, I definitely wouldn't let him go out. "
"Has Old Mr. Zheng behaved strangely recently?" Jiang Yuecheng asked.
"No." The old lady shook her head, somewhat at a loss. "Just like before."
"Has Old Mr. Zheng ever had a grudge with anyone?" Jiang Yuecheng asked again.
"No." The old lady paused and seemed to be at a loss. "My old man has the best temper. He usually doesn't even quarrel with others. Why would he have a grudge that could take someone's life?"
Jiang Yuecheng asked a few more questions but did not get any answers. Xing Jiadong came over and whispered something into Jiang Yuecheng's ear.
Jiang Yuecheng's eyes focused and looked at the old lady again. "There's no problem for now. If there's a problem, we'll look for you again."
"When … When can we take my old man away?" The old lady asked while crying.
"We have to wait until the case is over. There may be clues on the deceased that we haven't found yet," Jiang Yuecheng said.
"You … Are you going to dissect him?" The old lady cried again when she thought of that scene. "He died so painfully. He can't even rest in peace after his death. He can't even have a whole body."
"I'm sorry. We'll try our best to keep the body intact. But compared to finding the murderer, I believe you want us to find the murderer as soon as possible. "Jiang Yuecheng's attitude was businesslike. He did not show much comfort.
"Yes, Mom. No matter what, finding the murderer is the most important thing. Otherwise, even if Dad's body is intact, he won't be satisfied." Her daughter comforted her.
The old lady did not insist anymore. She cried as she was helped away.
"Which university is the deceased's granddaughter in?" Jiang Yuecheng asked.
Xing Jiadong was about to answer when he saw Qi Youxuan come in again.
"Why are you here again?" Xing Jiadong was a little short-tempered. Now that Qi Youxuan came back to cause trouble, he did not hide his displeasure. "We have a case now. We don't have time to play with you."
Previously, it was not a big deal. Also, for Wei Muran's sake, Qi Youxuan came over and treated him as a colleague's family member.
But now that he came over, it was a little inappropriate. Xing Jiadong also had some opinions about Wei Muran. He looked at Wei Muran unhappily.
Zhang Ming hurriedly walked over and grabbed him. "This time we really have a big case. Everyone is anxious. Jiadong didn't do it on purpose. Don't take it to heart. Aren't you busy? Don't come here all the time. "
Wei Muran felt very embarrassed. He braced himself and walked over. His face was burning. Just as he was about to speak, the bureau chief walked in from behind.
"Yo, why are you all blocking the door?" The bureau chief looked at Zhang Ming and Wei Muran. His expression was especially kind. Then he looked at Qi Youxuan. His expression was even more kind.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is Qi Youxuan. I specially invited him to help you with the case." The bureau chief said, "I heard about today's case. Coincidentally, my nephew is free, so I put down my old face and asked him to come and help."
"Bureau chief, we're handling a case. It's not good to ask outsiders to come in." Xing Jiadong frowned.
"Hehe, it's normal that you don't know Qi Youxuan's name. But you must know about the big case in Huai City a year ago. "The bureau chief looked at Qi Youxuan." Nephew, you're still so low-key, huh? "
"I've always been low-key." Qi Youxuan's smile was especially warm. But looking at his smile made people's hands itch.
"The big case in Huai City a year ago was said to have an expert's help. But no one knows his name. He's not a famous expert in the country or abroad. Bureau chief, could it be — "Zhao Yiyang suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Qi Youxuan in disbelief.
Such a young man, probably in his twenties this year, about the same age as them.
"I'm here to help. Low-key, low-key. Don't tell others. Being famous is too stressful." Qi Youxuan chuckled. "Actually, I've been coming to report the case for the past two days to test your investigation ability."
F * ck!
I've never seen such a shameless person!
At this moment, everyone in the office roared in their hearts at the same time.
You either said you lost your phone or lost your wallet. What kind of investigation ability can you find out?
But you said it so seriously as if it was true. How shameless!
"Alright, Yuecheng, tell Youxuan about the case," the bureau chief said and left.
Jiang Yuecheng frowned slightly. Zhang Ming told him about the clues they already knew. In the end, he couldn't help but add, "You're not a good friend. You solved such a big case in Huai City and you didn't even tell me."
"You don't even know Mu Mu. What are you unfair about?" Qi Youxuan rolled his eyes.
He called Wei Muran's nickname so intimately, which made everyone look at him.
Wei Muran's face was red and his head was buzzing.
Since he was young, only he would call him Mu Mu. But this was work, so why did he call him that?!
Jiang Yuecheng's eyes quickly scanned Qi Youxuan's face and said, "The identification results just came out. The deceased's blood sample contained the blood of the deceased's granddaughter, Zheng Xiaorui."
Hearing that, Xing Jiadong quickly said, "Zheng Xiaorui, 19 years old this year. She was admitted to Jiao Tong University's Fine Arts Department last year. Although she's a local of B City, she's been living on campus and only goes home on weekends."
"Muran, come with me to Jiao Tong University," Jiang Yuecheng said without mentioning Qi Youxuan.
