"and……"
Jiang, the forensic doctor, looked slightly pale. She gestured to one of the bodies and said, "Look here."
It was a corpse that could barely be identified as human, but the top of the head looked like it had been shaved off, and the head was empty. The flesh on the right thigh was turned outwards and was already rotting. After being pieced together, an entire femur was missing.
The forensic doctor Jiang pointed to the other femur, where there was an old mark and a small gold fragment embedded near the pelvis.
Team Leader Hu's expression changed drastically: "Metallic ability crystallization! Metallic ability!"
Jiang, the forensic doctor, remained silent, while Fu Heqing nodded heavily: "This is... Wu Zhicheng's body."
"Before his death, he fought fiercely, using his meridian powers to reverse and commit suicide to break free from his restraints and fight his enemies until the very end... when he was killed."
“There are likely clues to the murderer on those golden fragments. They were left behind by this young man… at the cost of his life.” As the forensic doctor Jiang spoke, his voice choked with emotion.
No one is without a heavy heart.
The fifteen-year-old boy was academically excellent and well-liked. He was preparing to take the entrance exam for a special abilities academy in a few months and should have had a bright future, but a tragic accident struck. And there were dozens of others who suffered the same fate!
Fu Heqing spoke on behalf of the choked-up forensic doctor Jiang: "The last five victims in this batch are all teenagers aged thirteen to eighteen. Preliminary comparison results show that they are part of the missing teenagers."
Suppressing his anger, Team Leader Hu pondered, "What is their purpose?"
A group member said, "This level of injury usually indicates a revenge killing or torture."
Team Leader Hu and Uncle Huan shook their heads simultaneously.
Judging from Wu Zhicheng's experience, the perpetrator did seem to intend to torture and kill. But if that was the intention, why were there missing parts on the bodies? Where did those missing parts go? Furthermore, the injuries on the different victims were not the same. If it were a case of a psychopathic murder, the method shouldn't be completely random. And considering the sheer number of victims and the methods used to erase traces, it seems more like a group crime with a specific purpose.
"The high degree of overlap in the missing parts is definitely not a coincidence!"
Team Leader Hu said with a solemn expression.
...
After successfully entering the trial grounds, Shen Xiu received a message that he had come out from there.
Huanbo informed him of the details of the case.
