Chapter 194 Split-Brain Case: Deception

After work, Fang Rui drove Mu Mian home. When they arrived at the door, Mu Mian suddenly looked at him and said mysteriously: "Fang Rui, let's go to your house. I have something important to tell you."

"Important? What?" Fang Rui's heartbeat quickened. He couldn't help but guess, Mu Mian would not propose to him again? If Mu Mian proposed to him this time, would he agree?

"Let's talk about it inside. This matter cannot be explained in one or two sentences."

"Isn't it just a matter of one sentence?"

"Of course not. Such an important matter cannot be explained in one sentence. Fang Rui, open the door quickly." Mu Mian urged. "

Okay."

Mu Mian let Fang Rui sit on the sofa, and she sat opposite Fang Rui.

Fang Rui was a little nervous.

Mu Mian took out a black folder from her bag and handed it to Fang Rui: "Open it quickly, there is a surprise."

There was no writing on the cover of the folder. Fang Rui asked: "What is this? It can't be a marriage agreement, right?"

Mu Mian looked at Fang Rui and shook his head in disappointment, "Fang Rui, now that such a special murder case has happened, you are still thinking about getting married, you are so unprofessional!"

Fang Rui retorted: "Then who came to me in the middle of the night to discuss the case and proposed to me? It was because you had a criminal record that I made a wrong prediction about your behavior."

Mu Mian changed the subject guiltily, "Fang Rui, read the report quickly."

"Can't you just tell me the result of the report?"

"Of course not. I want to train your reading and comprehension skills, otherwise your IQ will degenerate like Rainbow Seven. And it will be more shocking if you read it yourself."

Fang Rui frowned after reading the report. The report was indeed very shocking.

A child who should have died long ago actually survived for more than a year and then became the victim of a homicide.

Fang Rui was shocked: "How could it be Li Yan's child? Wasn't her child killed by Chen Hui and put into a jar? Why is this child still alive?"

The DNA sample that matched the child came from a victim named Li Yan, who was the first victim of the cat fetus case.

Mu Mian explained: "Li Yan was eight months pregnant at the time. If the baby was born prematurely, it is possible that it could be born successfully. At that time, I extracted the DNA of the fetuses in the jars, and their DNA did not match the DNA of the three dead. There were no children of the victims in the jars."

Fang Rui asked: "Why didn't you tell me this at the time?"

"I thought it was not important at the time. The parents of those children didn't care about them, so they wouldn't care about their bodies. Besides, I didn't know you at all at the time. You were very fierce to me at that time, and I was a little afraid of you." Mu Mian said in a low voice.

"Was I mean to you?"

"Yes! You never smiled at me."

"You asked me for my body every day, how could I smile at you? And even though I was so mean, I couldn't kill your interest in my body."

"Later, I always asked you for it, but you would always smile at me." Mu Mian raised his head with a proud expression, "You liked me at that time, right?"

"Yes. So when did you start to like me?"

Mu Mian lowered his head and said, "I don't know. But I just like you, very much."

Fang Rui quickly discovered the contradiction and asked, "Mu Mian, if you think the children's bodies are not important, why do you test their DNA? Don't you want to help them find their parents?"

Mu Mian nodded, "Yes. But Chen Xue told me that their parents would not care about the children's bodies. I thought her words made sense, so she dragged me to the dinner party."

They were silent at the same time.

Fang Rui asked again, "When did your relationship with Chen Xue start to improve?"

Fang Rui found that the relationship between Mu Mian and Chen Xue suddenly became very good. With Mu Mian's personality, it is very difficult to make good friends. And Chen Xue is particularly tolerant of Mu Mian.

"A week after I started working. I don't know why, Chen Xue always pulled me to chat. She told me a lot of social common sense, told me my horoscope, gave me milk tea, and slowly we became friends."

They were silent again.

Chen Xue also had a motive to kill. Because Chen Shu's mother caused Chen Xue to lose her father and her happy family.

But if Chen Xue's purpose of approaching Mu Mian was not simple at the beginning, then her motive for killing Chen Shu was not because of jealousy and hatred, it is very likely that someone behind her instructed her to do these things.

She and Chen Shu may belong to the same organization. Chen Xue was afraid that Chen Shu would be emotional and tell the truth to Xiao Wang, so she poisoned and killed Chen Shu.

But Fang Rui couldn't figure it out. If Chen Xue was an undercover agent, why would she be so nice to Mu Mian? Was getting close to Mu Mian part of her mission?

Mu Mian was a little sad. Chen Xue was a very good friend of hers, but she still couldn't believe that Chen Xue's kindness to her was based on deception. She couldn't accept that Chen Xue was very likely a murderer.

"Fang Rui, could this all be a coincidence? Chen Xue...she shouldn't lie to me." But Mu Mian knew very well that it would be difficult for her to make friends on her own.

Mu Mian remembered that when she was in college, she had several good friends one after another. They were very nice to her, would listen to her popular science very patiently, and would tolerate her various minor problems. She thought she had finally made friends.

Later she found out that those people were willing to be friends with her because her sister had given them many benefits.

Mu Mian asked them why they lied to her. They all gave similar answers. If it wasn't for the benefit, no one would be willing to take care of someone unconditionally.

"Fang Rui, I should have thought about it. How could anyone be willing to be friends with someone as troublesome as me?" Mu Mian's eyes were a little wet.

Fang Rui hugged Mu Mian and comforted her, "You are not in trouble at all. Look, you have a boyfriend now."

"Fang Rui, are you lying to me too?" Mu Mian was very scared. Although she had learned to identify lies, humans have too many lying skills. Everyone is so good at lying, lies nested in lies, truth and lies mixed together. Mu Mian found that she didn't know how to distinguish the truth from the false.

"Of course not." Fang Rui held Mu Mian's hand and let her feel his heartbeat, "Mu Mian, look, my heart won't lie to you."

"I believe you." Mu Mian leaned her head on his arms, feeling his strong heartbeat, "But, Fang Rui, lies are born in the brain, not the heart."

"..."

Mu Mian's emotions slowly calmed down, and she thought of the biggest victim of Chen Xue's lies.

"Fang Rui, what about Officer Xiao Zhang? How sad he would be if he knew that Chen Xue was deceiving him. He even planned the wedding, and he invited me to be the bridesmaid."

Fang Rui thought of Xiao Zhang who was always happy. He couldn't imagine how sad Xiao Zhang would be if he knew the truth?

Fang Rui said: "Let's not let Chen Xue know for now. We are suspecting her. Let's see if we can find some clues from her."

Mu Mian asked: "Should we tell Officer Xiao Zhang?"

Fang Rui hesitated for a while and said: "Don't tell him yet!"

Xiao Zhang's acting skills are so bad, and he has such deep feelings for Chen Xue. If he were to tell him, he would probably be in trouble.
