Chapter 503:
"Click~ Click~"
Inside the theater, there is a prop room that is filled with all sorts of tools and props. In the corner of the prop room, there is a monster-shaped prop that looks very old. But now, without anyone touching it, it started moving on its own and made strange noises!
The prop for that monster was a huge crocodile monster with a very large head that could swallow a person whole. Its body was also very long, and the whole prop looked quite scary.
"Squeak~"
The door to the tool shed opened, and a man in work clothes walked in. He was likely a staff member of the theater. He carried a few small props into the shed, put them down, and was about to leave when he seemed to be drawn to something and eventually walked into a corner.
...
At 8 PM, the management office.
It was already evening when Yinni obtained the information from the police. After receiving the information, Yinni immediately began to arrange for everyone, saying, "Come on, everyone get ready. Since we have found the girls who were with the murderer, let's go to the police station to give our statements now."
"No, didn't the police take our statements?"
Bai Xinyu looked at the information on the computer and said, "Do we still have to go over there?"
"Yes, because we don't know if they will lie to protect their classmates, we'd better go there ourselves."
As he spoke, he pointed to Ye Dongfeng and Yue Jiuling and said, "Dongfeng, Jiuling, come with me. There are three of them in total. We can each ask one of them. The rest of you can wait here."
"All right."
Yue Jiuling looked at the message Lao Cai had sent on her phone and said, "The deceased's family is strange. They never contact the deceased normally, so why aren't they coming to identify the body at this time?"
"How bad must their relationship be?"
Mu Xiaoyi said speechlessly, "Even if the person is dead, shouldn't they come to claim the body, no matter how bad the relationship is? Aren't the parents coming?"
"It seems she has no parents, only an aunt and an uncle, but they don't get along well..."
Ye Dongfeng looked at the information about the deceased's family members and said, "Oh well, if they don't want to come, they don't have to. Anyway, the case hasn't been solved yet, so it's okay if they come a little later."
Because the deceased did not have a good relationship with his family and relatives, and was not married or had children, no one came to claim his body after he died. Even when the police notified his relatives, they did not seem very willing to come and claim the body. Therefore, the body that could be claimed is still at the management office.
"Ugh~ In the past, we had to do autopsies on bodies, and we wouldn't let the families come to claim them. Now it's great, we don't have to do autopsies anymore, but they don't want to come and claim them anymore. What kind of nonsense is this?!"
Bai Xinyu scrolled through the messages with her mouse while complaining, "Well, at least our morgue is big, otherwise there wouldn't be enough space for people to put their bodies in."
"That's right, that's right."
Ye Dongfeng took his phone and followed Yinni, saying, "Let's go, we'll go ask those girls first, you can check the information yourselves."
"OK".
Mu Xiaoyi nodded, indicating that they could go without worry.
Yue Jiuling also disappeared. She said to Xiaobaicai, "Xiaobaicai, if you're tired, go back first. You don't have to participate in tonight's overtime work."
"Okay, I understand. I'll use the killer's photo to help the police find the person."
Little Cabbage stared at the computer screen as she spoke.
Because the police haven't found the murderer yet, Xiaobaicai is also helping to search for him.
Hidden, Yue Jiuling, and Ye Dongfeng quickly arrived at the police station, where they were received by Lao Cai.
Old Cai, holding a cigarette, stood at the door waiting for them to arrive. As soon as he saw them, he pointed to the people inside and said, "They're all inside. You can ask them. We found their school by following the nearby surveillance footage, then went to the school to find their home, and finally brought them out. Their parents came along too."
"They're probably worried about their children, so it's normal for parents to come along."
Hidden looked at Lao Cai and said, "Then we'll go in. You haven't told them why you're looking for them, have you?"
"No, how could I say? You guys should handle this. If anyone seems off, you'll be able to tell."
Old Cai pushed the three hidden men into the police station and said, "You guys should handle this; we can't get involved in this anymore."
Hidden was taken to the police station, where, sure enough, several girls were waiting anxiously with their parents. Some of the parents kept asking their children and the police what their children had done wrong and why the police had called them in so late at night.
"Officer, could you please tell us what my child did wrong? Why are you here with us at this time?"
A middle-aged woman with a ponytail asked a male police officer, "My child is only in the second year of junior high school. He shouldn't have done anything wrong, right? Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
"That's right, that's right, what can a kid of only ten or so do? Officers, you must have made a mistake, right?"
One of the male parents was saying, "Yingying, did you do something? Quickly explain it to the police officer."
"No, we don't. We don't even know what we're doing anymore..."
