After turning a corner, Xu Yao pushed open a door and found a spacious room. There were seven or eight solid wood tables in the room, with thick documents piled on them.

Busy figures were shuttling back and forth, and Xu Yao's appearance finally attracted their attention.

"Captain Xu is back!"

A lively and cheerful voice came in front of Mo Xiaoqing and extended his hand, "Hello, new female police officer. I didn't greet you properly at the scene just now. Now let me introduce myself. My name is Liu Xiaobo. You can just call me Xiaobo, or you can call me Bobo."

Mo Xiaoqing stretched out her hand awkwardly, "Hello, my name is Mo Xiaoqing. Please give me your advice!"

"Oh my God! Xiaobo, Xiaoqing, what a fate...!" Liu Xiaobo shouted heartily. His short crew cut hair matched his sunny and handsome appearance, and he looked very easy to get along with.

Suddenly, Xu Yao's big hand reached out and pinched Liu Xiaobo's ear, "Go to work! As long as they are women, you stick to them like a dog-skin plaster."

"Ah, ah, Captain Xu, let go, I won't dare to do it next time, I'm going now." Xu Yao pulled Liu Xiaobo into the computer and started working.

After the other three or five colleagues met Mo Xiaoqing, they also threw themselves into their work.

Only Mo Xiaoqing was left standing there stupidly, like a redundant person. It was really uncomfortable to watch others busy while she couldn't get involved.

Mo Xiaoqing raised her foot and wanted to walk around the room to familiarize herself with the environment. Suddenly, a colleague rushed over and bumped into Mo Xiaoqing, and the information was scattered all over the floor.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Let me help you pick it up." Mo Xiaoqing said while raising her head.

She recognized the policewoman in front of her. She was examining the bodies at the dismemberment scene. She should be a forensic doctor. She was tall and outstanding in appearance. Her shoulder-length curly hair fell on her shoulders, making her look neat and tidy.

After all the documents on the ground were picked up, Mo Xiaoqing stood up and said sorry vigorously.

"You are the police officer who was just sent here to serve as an assistant to Captain Xu Yao. Do you feel ignored?"

Lin Yalin smiled indifferently, "Our Captain Xu forgets everything when he gets serious. You should find something to do and pour them some water."

Mo Xiaoqing felt much better and said thank you many times. During the conversation, she learned that this beautiful forensic doctor was called Lin Yalin, and she came here today to deliver the autopsy report.

Lin Yalin looked at Xu Yao tenderly as she left, "Ah, under the leadership of crazy Xu Yao, no one in the whole team is normal anymore. When there is a case, they all switch to Sherlock Holmes mode, forgetting to sleep and eat!"

Mo Xiaoqing dared to call Captain Xu "Crazy Xu Yao", and she guessed that this female forensic doctor had a good relationship with Captain Xu in private.

Mo Xiaoqing looked at her colleagues in the team who were all busy, and could only do some small things like pouring water, printing documents, and running errands. Time passed quickly, and it was almost night.

Mo Xiaoqing was about to go to the water room to pour water, but she heard Captain Xu calling her, "That...that new guy, go to the conference room with us now, remember to take notes."

Mo Xiaoqing was very happy to hear that she had something to do, so she took her pen and notebook and followed him to the conference room.

As soon as we entered the conference room, we got down to business. The slides in the meeting showed photos of the deceased at the scene.

Captain Xu asked, "Xiao Liu, can you please summarize today's progress? Have the forensic and technical departments come up with results?"

Liu Xiaobo stood up and answered, "The deceased is a 16-year-old female, currently a sophomore at Yucai High School. According to the forensic data, the body we brought back is intact except for the internal organs and the head. The deceased was stabbed four times in the abdomen and died of excessive blood loss. The murder weapon may be a 28-centimeter fruit knife. The body is very uneven and rusty. It is inferred that the body was cut up with a rusty axe.

The time of death was about six days ago, which is Around 11pm on January 11th, the school was on winter break.

Today, we contacted the mother of the deceased, and found out that her twin daughters were missing at the same time. The elder sister died, and the younger sister is still missing. The parents of the deceased divorced ten years ago, and the two sisters followed their mother Chen Guihua. She worked in a trading company and traveled all over the country. Chen Guihua was rushing back from another place after hearing the news.

Chen Guihua's husband was a blockbuster and owed a lot of gambling debts. Chen Guihua divorced him reluctantly and did not let him see their daughter. "

Xu Yao asked, "A pair of children have been missing for a week, and her mother didn't suspect anything?"

"According to Chen Guihua, she said that she had been in contact with her on WeChat for a week while she was away." Liu Xiaobo replied.

"How's the situation with Huang Zhixiang?" Captain Asahi asked after taking a sip of water.

Liu Xiaobo: "The blood stains on the bloody clothes, shoes and fruit knife we ​​found were confirmed to be from the deceased, and the fruit knife matched the wound on the abdomen of the corpse. The investigation found that Huang Zhixiang had a serious sleepwalking disorder. Someone once saw her stabbing a nearby resident's cat to death while sleepwalking."

Another police officer said, "Captain Xu, it is obvious that Huang Zhixiang is the murderer. She must have gone out in a sleepwalking state to kill people and then dismembered the body."

Xu Yao flipped through the information in his hand, put out the cigarette in his hand, and walked to the front of the round table. "It is not ruled out that Huang Zhixiang is related to this case, but there are several doubts that cannot be explained.

First, the series of actions of killing and dismembering takes a long time, and sleepwalking is also very important. Shen couldn't possibly not wake up.

Secondly, judging from the way the murderer threw the body, the murderer had conducted careful observation and analysis. "

Xu Yao finished speaking, and pulled out a bag of evidence from the table, "Look everyone, this is a strand of hair I scraped off the edge of a sewage pipe under a bridge pier. After a DNA test, it was confirmed that the hair came from the deceased, and it is certain that the body was thrown out from the sewage pipe.

The murderer also checked the weather forecast at the time. It happened to rain heavily on January 12, and the water level of the Binjiang River rose rapidly. The body discharged from the sewage outlet could easily be pushed into the river.

Just think about it, can a sleepwalker do all this in one night?

As soon as Captain Xu said this, the police officers in the entire conference room nodded one after another, thinking it made a lot of sense.

"What if Huang Zhixiang had an accomplice? It's also possible that she woke up and found that she had killed someone, and she was afraid that others would find out, so she returned to the scene to dismember the body." A police officer said.

"If that's the case, why did she come to the police station to report the case? Isn't this contradictory!"

"Maybe she was recently condemned by her conscience and wanted to turn herself in, but she didn't want to give out her accomplice, so she deliberately concealed the memory of dismembering the body. ..."

A heated discussion began in the conference room.

Mo Xiaoqing was a little confused as to why their arguments were all about the various speculations after Huang Zhixiang killed someone, so she bravely said timidly: "That...that...is it possible that Huang Zhixiang really went to the crime scene in a sleepwalking state, but she didn't kill anyone."

Although her voice was not loud, the entire conference room could hear it. As soon as she spoke, the entire conference room fell silent. Mo Xiaoqing realized that she had gotten into trouble and shouldn't have said too much. She glanced at Captain Xu, and he actually had a smile on his face, not anger.

"Everyone's inference is reasonable, and we cannot rule out any possibility. As long as we haven't found the crime scene, we can't conclude that Huang Zhixiang is the murderer.

Now there is still a missing person whose life and death are unknown. We must send more people to expand the scope and continue the search.

Everyone is tired today, go back and rest, and get enough energy!"
