Chapter 109 Relationship
Yu Jing added, "According to the property management company, Bai Jiaying is the owner. The emergency contact she filled out when she moved in was a person named Wen Fangai, but she cannot be contacted at the moment."
Humans are social animals. Even though Bai Jiaying is not sociable and rarely interacts with her neighbors, at least two names have appeared so far: the nanny Chen Huimin and the emergency contact Wen Fangai.
Xia Mufan asked: "Who is Bai Jiaying's husband?"
Yu Jing and Feng Xiaoyu shook their heads together: "It's not registered, so I don't know."
Feng Xiaoyu looked at the body in the living room with a look of pity in her eyes: "People from the property management company and neighbors all said that they have never seen Bai Jiaying's husband. Maybe she is divorced and has a baby."
Yu Jing said: "According to Bai Jiaying's ID number, she is not from Hui City, but from Qian'an Township, Haihe City, Shandong Province. More information needs to be further investigated."
Gu Shaoqi also finished the preliminary autopsy and straightened up.
Xia Mushi walked over and asked, "How is it?"
Gu Shaoqi said softly: "The murderer was left-handed and extremely cruel. He killed her with one blow. His carotid artery and throat were severed. He had no time to call for help."
The strong smell of blood was still lingering in his nose. Xia Mufan looked at the shape of a corpse drawn on the ground with chalk, and felt a little heavy in his heart.
She was a stranger in a foreign land, but died tragically at home and her child was taken away. Who wanted to harm Bai Jiaying?
Gong Weiguo and Sun Xianbing checked the items in the room and took photos of them one by one in order.
As soon as they opened the wardrobe, they were dazzled by the gorgeous clothes and exquisite accessories. Seeing the high-end cosmetics and gold and silver jewelry casually placed on the dressing table, the two couldn't help but sigh at how ignorant she was.
"Wow, so many clothes!"
"I'm afraid all the money was spent on dressing up?"
There are also many luxurious baby products in the baby room. From baby strollers, rocking chairs, walkers to all kinds of beautiful baby toys and milk powder, they are all imported products and are obviously worth a lot of money at first glance.
On the wall hang photos of children at different ages, including full-month photos, hundred-day photos, six-month-old photos, one-year-old photos... The children in the photos are white and tender, innocent and cute.
After looking around, I didn't find any photos of Bai Jiaying with other men in the room.
Maybe, she is divorced or widowed?
After the on-site investigation, it was already late at night when we returned to the Criminal Investigation Brigade.
Having stayed at a crime scene for two or three hours, Xu Shumei once again deeply felt the difficulties of being a criminal policeman.
It was late at night, and Gu Shaoqi sent Xu Shumei and Xia Mufan home. Xu Shumei stood at the gate of the yard and carefully reminded them: "Children, take care of your health and don't get too tired."
Meeting Xu Shumei's caring eyes, Gu Shaoqi felt warm in his heart.
——It turns out that there are people who care about his health.
Xia Mufan held the ice cream in one hand and waved at him with the other hand: "Forensic Doctor Gu, thank you for your hard work today."
Gu Shaoqi served as their driver for the entire night, staged a road chase, and was then caught for an autopsy. He was busy for six or seven hours and it was indeed hard work.
Gu Shaoqi smiled slightly, without any sign of fatigue on his face: "It's okay, you should rest early too."
After saying that, he started the car and left.
As soon as Xia Mufan turned around, Mei Hui rushed out of the house, his back arched, his eyes fixed on the ice cream, and an angry grunt came from his throat.
Where did this stray dog come from! 】
[This is my territory.] 】
[Xia Xia is mine!] 】
Xue Gao was frightened by Coal Ash's posture and quickly hid behind Xia Mufan.
Who is it? 】
[It’s so fierce.] 】
Xia Mufan knew that Coal Ash had a strong sense of territory, so he bent down to pick it up, stroked its tense back, and said softly, "The puppy's name is Ice Cream, and it's still a little kid. Its owner was just killed by a bad guy, and it's homeless, so I'll take it in for a few days. Be a good owner and welcome this little guest, okay?"
When Meihui heard Xia Mufan say that he was the host and the other party was the guest, he immediately relaxed.
It poked its head out from Xia Mufan's arms somewhat arrogantly, glanced at the ice cream, and bared its teeth at it.
[Okay, I'll take pity on you.] 】
[You are only allowed to sleep in the yard, not allowed to enter the house, do you hear me? 】
If you dare to run around, I will kick you out. 】
Like Soot, Ice Cream was born and raised in a pet store, and has a natural ability to read people's expressions. Although it couldn't understand what Coal Ash said, it could sense that the other party's attitude had become friendly, and immediately wagged its tail.
[I’m very good.] 】
[Don't throw me away.] 】
Xia Mufan brought the ice cream into the yard and looked around.
The old dormitory building of the unit has a balcony in the master bedroom. The house has a yard on the first floor, and the balcony on the second floor forms a veranda that can shelter from wind and rain.
Xia Mufan brought a paper box, put some straw inside, and placed it under the eaves: "Xiao Gao, you can sleep here tonight."
As long as the ice cream was not thrown away by Xia Mufan, it had no other wishes, so it immediately lay down obediently in the box, looking around carefully.
It was quiet all around.
There were not many people in the corridor, only the lights were on in Xia Muchan's house.
Summer insects chirped in the yard.
——Everything here makes Xuegao feel at ease.
The owner passed away suddenly, and Ice Cream was terrified, not knowing what his future would be like.
It is afraid of being sent to a pet store and sold again.
It is also afraid of being abandoned and becoming a stray street dog, with no place to live and rummaging through trash cans for food every day.
But now, the straw in the big cardboard box is dry and fluffy, with a fresh scent of grass and wood.
The veranda is clean and spacious.
Thanks to the acceptance of Xia Mufan, Xu Shumei and Meihui, Xuegao now has a home, a place to stay.
Xia Mufan understood what it said, and it looked determined and strong.
Xu Shumei is gentle and kind, and her eyes are full of pity when she looks at it.
Even the civet cat that looked unfriendly at first did not bully it.
His frightened heart gradually calmed down, Xuegao turned his gaze to Xia Mufan, lowered his head and made a whimpering sound.
【Thank you. 】
[Xia Xia is a very good person.] 】
Good person? Hearing Xue Gao's evaluation of himself, Xia Mufan smiled and said, "Okay, don't be afraid. Go to sleep first and catch the bad guys tomorrow."
The next morning, Xia Mufan came to the yard.
The ice cream has jumped out of the carton and is squatting under the eaves, staring at the passers-by vigilantly.
Seeing Xia Mufan, Ice Cream wagged its tail.
[Xia Xia, I'll help you look after the house.] 】
[If a bad guy comes over, I will bite him!] 】
Xia Mufan couldn't help laughing and stroked Xue Gao's head. The soft hair made her feel good. "All the people living here are police officers. Don't bark and be good. You usually stay in the yard and don't go into the house. If you want to go out of the yard, someone must lead you and put you on a leash."
Xuegao is still young and has no professional training, so he does everything based on instinct. Xia Mufan was a little worried that the dog had suffered psychological trauma after the tragedy of its owner being murdered, and would bark wildly when it saw strangers. It would cause the neighbors to dislike it, which would be a headache.
Xue Gao looked at the small yard in front of him. In fact, the yard railing could not stop him, but since Xia Mufan said so, he would definitely act according to his command.
Its owner has died, and now that it has been taken home by Xia Mufan, it must behave well and try to stay.
Ice Cream tried hard to sit up straight, tilted his head, and tentatively stretched out his right paw, making a "handshake" gesture.
[Okay, I promise not to bark or run around.] 】
[I'll be waiting for you at home.] 】
Xia Mushige smiled and stretched out his hand, shaking hands with the front paw of the ice cream: "Okay, you are so good."
Back at the office of the Serious Crime Unit 7, another busy day begins.
With the help of police officers from the police station and property management personnel from Xingfuli, the Serious Crime Unit 7 quickly found the nanny Chen Huimin and the emergency contact Wen Fangai.
When Chen Huimin heard that Bai Jiaying had been murdered, he was so frightened that his face turned pale and his voice trembled.
"Yes, I am the nanny she hired. Wen Fangai introduced me to her."
"I was doing pretty well at her house. Xiaobai is from the north, she's generous and straightforward, and her family is simple, so there aren't many fussies. I went there at eight in the morning and came back at six in the evening, helping with housework and taking care of the kids, and I got along pretty well with Xiaobai."
"Why did you fire me? Alas! Actually, I don't really know. Let me guess, maybe I said something that day that a single woman's life is still a bit difficult, so why not find a father for Ruirui?"
"I actually mean well. Xiaobai is only 25 years old, so young and beautiful. It's still hard for her to take care of the child alone without anyone to help. So what if you have money? Can money buy family happiness and harmonious marriage?"
"I shouldn't have asked about Xiaobai's private affairs. After she heard what I said, her face changed and she told me not to go there again the next day. But Xiaobai never treated me badly in terms of money. Even though I didn't work for a full month, she still gave me a month's salary."
Xia Mufan asked: "Has there never been a man in Bai Jiaying's house?"
Chen Huimin thought for a moment and said, "Not really. I came to clean the room a few times in the morning and saw obvious signs of a man staying in the bedroom."
Xia Mushige repeated, "Traces of a man staying there?"
Seeing her clear expression, Chen Huimin was a little embarrassed to say too much, so he said vaguely: "It's about the things between men and women. There is a special smell in the room, and... there are toothbrushes and men's spare clothes in the bathroom."
Xia Mushige understood: "Is the time fixed?"
Chen Huimin shook his head: "It's hard to tell the time. The man only came to stay for one night and left early in the morning, like a thief."
Xia Mufan asked: "How many times have you encountered this?"
Chen Huimin: "After Ruirui was born, I worked as a nanny in her home. I also took care of Xiaobai during her confinement. Her hometown is thousands of kilometers away from here, and none of her parents, brothers and sisters are around. I felt sorry for her and treated her like my own daughter. That man came only seven or eight times in total. He was very heartless."
Xia Mushige asked: "You have never seen it?"
Chen Huimin sighed: "No. Xiaobai hid him very well, I never saw him once."
Xia Mufan asked: "What do you think is the relationship between Bai Jiaying and that man?"
Chen Huimin's face showed a trace of anger: "What kind of relationship could it be? How can a proper couple act like thieves? If it were in ancient times, it would be a concubine who could not be seen in public. I think that man is not sincere at all, he just treats her as a tool to have a son, right?"
If the other party wanted to trick Bai Jiaying into giving birth to a son, that would explain why he took Ruirui away.
But why kill people?
