Chapter 14 Case of the Cat and the Fetus: Hostages
A string of police cars drove over from different directions and stopped downstairs, sirens blaring and lights dyeing the night sky colorful. Many people looked down from their windows to watch.
Fang Rui quickly led people to Chen Hui's house and kicked the door open.
The house was pitch black and quiet, with a strong smell of incense in the air, mixed with a faint fishy smell.
There was no one inside.
With a click, Fang Rui turned on the light.
Xiao Zhang sighed, "Team Fang, that kid wouldn't have run away, right?"
"Team Fang, come and have a look." Someone exclaimed, "Oh my God, what are these!"
"Don't be so surprised, what's so scary about this..."
The voice paused, and everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them:
there was a huge iron rack on the left side of the living room, on which were rows of transparent glass jars of different sizes. Each glass jar contained a baby.
There were unformed meat lumps, babies that had begun to differentiate, and fetuses that had grown hands and feet... They were soaked in formalin liquid.
Fang Rui roughly counted them and found that there were at least fifty bottles.
"Oh my god, how many children did he kill?"
"It's too cruel!"
Lin Sen looked at the baby specimens on the shelf. Each bottle was labeled with the date and number.
The earliest date was three years ago.
"These babies should not be killed by him." Lin Sen explained, "He is an obstetrician and gynecologist. These should be the bodies of babies he collected when he was working."
The police searched the house but did not find Chen Hui. The house was very tidy and there was no sign of a fight.
Fang Rui and his team waited in Chen Hui's house for a long time, but there was no news of Chen Hui.
At this time, the police officer who was waiting outside the community called: "Boss, we found Chen Hui. He is now in Building 8 of the community. He has taken a hostage and is fleeing to the rooftop..."

Mu Mian looked down at the scalpel across her neck and remembered Chen Xue's words.
"Mian Mian, you Leos are in Mercury retrograde this month. You have to be careful. You will be unlucky recently."
Indeed... very unlucky!
She was just going home from work as usual, but she didn't expect to meet Chen Hui at the corner of the stairs on the third floor, and then she was tragically kidnapped by him.
"Hurry up!" Chen Hui was carrying a black backpack, which was bulging with things.
He pushed Mu Mian hard, and Mu Mian staggered a few steps. If she hadn't held onto the railing, she would have almost fallen.
"The correct escape route should be to go downstairs. Upstairs is the rooftop, and once you get there, you will have no way to retreat." Mu Mian couldn't help but suggest, "And I'm a little afraid of heights!"
Chen Hui ignored Mu Mian and pulled Mu Mian upstairs.
When they reached the sixth floor, Mu Mian felt that it seemed a little different. No one lived on the sixth floor, and the corridor was always filled with a moldy smell, but the smell today was different from before.
Mu Mian was used to patrolling the surrounding environment over and over again to make sure that where she lived was safe. She had inspected this building 101 times before, so she was sure that the smell in the corridor was different from what she smelled last time.
"Hurry up!"
The rooftop was on the top of the sixth floor. The door was not locked. Chen Hui kicked the door to the rooftop open. It was pitch black outside. A cold wind blew in her face, instantly messing up Mu Mian's short hair.
"Are you going to commit suicide? Can you die in another way? It's not beautiful to die like this. And I have a serious fear of heights."
Chen Hui put the scalpel against Mu Mian's neck and muttered in a mysterious way: "For you, this is a dead end, but for me, it may be a new life."
Mu Mian showed a bitter face: "I don't want to die now!"
Chen Hui asked in confusion as if he had heard a joke:
"Why don't you want to die? Isn't it hard for a weirdo like you to live in this world? You try so carefully to pretend to be a normal person and try so hard to please others, but they still look at you strangely, they laugh at you, and even exclude you. Don't you feel hopeless?"
He became more and more excited as he spoke, and his hands began to tremble. He swung the sharp scalpel, leaving several long bloody marks on Mu Mian's neck.
Mu Mian's eyes widened, and she whispered in defense: "I am a normal person now. My sister said that she is a very good psychotherapist. She loves me very much, so I can't die, otherwise she will be very sad."
"She is lying to you, you are so stupid! Your sister must think of you as a burden. She will be happier if you die."
Mu Mian's eyes dimmed in an instant, her lips moved, and finally swallowed the words she was about to say.
Her sister's friend had said the same thing. Because of taking care of her, her sister lost her career and love.
"No one loves you!" Chen Hui showed a sympathetic look, "I will help you get rid of it."
The first time Chen Hui saw Mu Mian, he knew that they were the same kind and were not accepted by this society.
He wanted to be friends with Mu Mian so that she would not be so lonely, but Mu Mian became a member of the police.
"Can I die in another way? My brain is very valuable for research, and it will be damaged if I fall down, so don't let me fall to death; don't stab me to death, because I have donated my internal organs, and if they are damaged, they can't be donated to others; strangulation is not okay either, I hate the feeling of suffocation..."
"Shut up! If you talk again, I will stab you a few times and then throw you down!"
Mu Mian immediately shut up.
At this time, they heard the sound of footsteps behind them, and Chen Hui saw that Fang Rui had brought people to chase them.
Fang Rui rushed to the rooftop and saw Chen Hui's knife on Mu Mian's neck, but Mu Mian was in a daze with a very calm expression.
"Back off! You guys back off! Don't come over here!" Chen Hui immediately dragged Mu Mian to the edge of the rooftop, "If you come over here again, I'll push her down."
There was no guardrail around the edge of the rooftop, so Mu Mian would fall down if he pushed her lightly.
"Okay, let's back off, and don't hurt the hostages." Fang Rui asked his men to back off a few steps.
"Keep backing off!"
The feeling of suspense brought Mu Mian back to reality. She suddenly seemed to understand something. "Chen Hui, are you talking about yourself just now?"
"What?"
"No one loves you!" Mu Mian said, "You are an alien, you can't fit into this world, you feel desperate!"
"Shut up, you are the waste that no one loves. People like you shouldn't be alive, I will help you get rid of it!" Chen Hui's emotions became agitated, and just when he wanted to push Mu Mian down, he heard someone say to him:
"Chen Hui, your mother loves you."
