Chapter 2 Cat Fetus Case: Can you donate the body to me?

The police conducted a carpet search of Room 541. This house should be the scene of the first crime.

There were no signs of violent damage to the door lock, and no suspicious signs were found in the house. Only the fingerprints of the deceased were found in the house.

The deceased was Li Yan, 28 years old, unmarried, without a stable job, a single woman, and 8 months pregnant.

Creak~

A very light sound of opening the door came from behind, and Mu Mian, who was lying on the table, immediately opened her eyes.

She didn't know how long she had been in this quiet interrogation room, but fortunately, she had a rare good sleep.

She decided to modify the decoration of her bedroom according to the style of this interrogation room, maybe she could sleep so soundly every day.

The door was pushed open and two people walked in.

The first person Mu Mian saw was the talkative young policeman this morning. He was followed by a tall man wearing a black leather jacket, with sharp features and a fierce expression. Mu

Mian had seen his photo before. He was Fang Rui, the leader of the special crime team. Her eyes lit up slightly. This man had a great figure and well-proportioned muscles. He was originally very suitable to be a human specimen.

Mu Mian stared at him closely, her burning eyes like a sharp scalpel. She had already begun to dissect him in her mind, peeling off all the organs and muscles on his body - it was a perfect skeleton.

Mu Mian liked bones. She had collected many beautiful bones, but this was the first time she saw such a perfect human skeleton.

What a pity, this is a living person, and there is a high probability that he can live for a very long time.

Xiao Zhang was a little surprised to see Mu Mian wipe away the waste just now.

Why did Mu Mian's empty eyes suddenly become so bright? Xiao Zhang glanced at Fang Rui again. Could it be that their boss's beauty fascinated her?

Fang Rui ignored Mu Mian's burning eyes, pulled out a chair and sat opposite Mu Mian. Mu Mian had to meet his eyes.

Although she had practiced for many years, it was still difficult for Mu Mian to make eye contact with others.

"Hello."

Mu Mian forced herself to look into his eyes. She felt that this would make her expression look more sincere.

"Excuse me, would you like to donate your body to me after you die? I will take good care of it for you..."

The air froze for a moment.

Fang Rui's expression was a little surprised, but he quickly adjusted back to the indifferent paralyzed mode.

If it weren't for the fact that this was an interrogation room and Xiao Zhang was sitting next to him, he would have wanted to pick up Mu Mian and throw him out.

She looked so small that he could lift her with one hand.

"Miss Mu, please make it clear to me that this is an interrogation room, be serious!" Xiao Zhang slapped the table and quickly interrupted Mu Mian, fearing that she would say something even stranger.

Xiao Zhang glanced at Fang Rui cautiously, his expression was calm.

As expected of the boss, he had seen big scenes and was quite stable. There were many girls pursuing Fang Rui, and many of them were after his body, but it was the first time that Xiao Zhang saw someone trying to get his body.

Mu Mian corrected Xiao Zhang, "I'm asking seriously."

"..."

"Then I'll answer you seriously," Fang Rui refused, "I have no plans to donate my body at the moment."

"Okay." Mu Mian slowly looked away and his gaze fell on Xiao Zhang.

Xiao Zhang immediately glared at her fiercely. Just as he was about to stop Mu Mian from taking his body, he heard Mu Mian whisper, "Aren't you going to take a statement?"

So... he was just being wishful thinking

. "What's your name?" Xiao Zhang opened the notebook.

"Mu Mian."

"Age?"

"I'll be 25 in 106 days."

"No need to go into such detail. What is your relationship with the deceased?"

"No."

Xiao Zhang paused his pen, "You can elaborate on this."

"I don't understand her interpersonal relationships," Mu Mian thought for a moment and confessed, "Her interpersonal relationships seem very complicated, beyond my understanding."

Xiao Zhang's eyes lit up: "For example..."

"She is not married, but has a child. Her boyfriend is someone else's husband. Her child may not be her boyfriend's..."

Xiao Zhang was speechless. These relationships could be summarized as "the deceased is a mistress", so what was complicated about them?

Xiao Zhang continued to ask: "Did you see anyone entering your neighbor's house last night, or hear any special noises coming from next door?"

"No, I didn't before I went to bed."

Mu Mian lowered her head and stared at the table. The table was a bit old, and the paint on the surface was peeling, and it looked bumpy. She felt inexplicably irritated.

She emphasized: "I went to bed at ten o'clock. I'm used to going to bed early."

"What about after you fell asleep?" Fang Rui suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Mu Mian looked up at him, then quickly looked away, and then like a quail, she shrank her head into her scarf.

Silence, a long silence.

Fang Rui asked: "Is this question difficult to answer?" His tone was very calm, not aggressive.

Mu Mian's lips moved, and with an expression of "trying to hide something but failing to do so", she explained slowly:

"It is difficult for people to notice the sounds from the outside world after falling asleep. This is common sense."

"You were sleeping very soundly just now, but the sound of us pushing the door so lightly still woke you up. This proves that you are very sensitive to sounds. You hate noise, don't you?"

When she heard the word "noise", Mu Mian nodded subconsciously to agree with him. She really hated noise.

"The houses in your community don't have very good soundproofing. Many residents have reported that they heard noises coming from the deceased's home last night."

Fang Rui's fingers tapped lightly on the table, as if tapping on Mu Mian's psychological defenses, "Then why didn't you hear those noises last night, as a neighbor of the deceased and someone who is sensitive to sounds?"

The houses in that community have very poor soundproofing. The murderer dissected the deceased in the house, and even if his movements were very light, it would be impossible for him to completely not hear any sounds.

Xiao Zhang and his team visited the residents living upstairs and downstairs from the deceased. They all mentioned that at around 2 a.m. last night, they heard a dragging sound of something rubbing against the floor in Room 541. However, because the deceased often made noises in the middle of the night and had a bad temper, they did not go to complain.

But Mu Mian said that she did not hear any sound last night. It was obvious that Mu Mian might be lying.

"Ms. Mu, what were you doing last night? Is there anything you can't say?"

Mu Mian's fingers stroked the scratches on the table. She wanted to hide the scratches, but this would only make them bigger.

Just when Fang Rui thought Mu Mian was not going to speak, she suddenly looked at Fang Rui: "I'm not the murderer."

"I believe you."

Mu Mian smiled at him, "Thank you for your trust."

Xiao Zhang looked at their conversation a little blankly. Did he miss something just now? Why did he suddenly not understand?

"But how can you prove that you are not the murderer?"

Mu Mian quickly put away her smile. She didn't plan to speak anymore. She could prove it, but that would expose her secret. So she planned to remain silent.

At this time, a knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

The person knocking on the door was Officer Chen, who was in charge of personnel. She looked at Xiao Zhang and said, "Captain Fang, sorry to interrupt you."

"Sister Chen, what's the matter?"

"The chief held a welcome party for the new colleagues who joined today. The new forensic doctor Mu said she was trapped here and asked me to rescue her. I don't quite understand what she meant. I think she was lost. So I want to ask, have you seen her here?"

"Where is the forensic doctor Mu here?"

"Strange, she said she was here and asked me to find her around 9 o'clock."

Fang Rui pointed at Mu Mian who was sitting obediently opposite them, "I think she is the forensic doctor Mu you are looking for."

Xiao Zhang stared at Mu Mian with wide eyes, "You are actually a forensic doctor?" Then isn't killing people a professional match?

"I," Mu Mian raised her hands, "I'm here."

Officer Chen frowned. Didn't the chief just say that he had recruited a top student? Why is it a little girl? She can't have not graduated from college yet.

Fang Rui said, "Officer Chen, new employees need to take a physical examination before they join the company,

right? Take her to do one first." "Okay." Officer Chen agreed casually, then thought, didn't they do a physical examination before they were admitted? But this little girl looked sick, so it was necessary to check her out again.

Fang Rui insisted, "Take her now."

Officer Chen glanced at Mu Mian's dazed state, "Okay, there's a hospital next door anyway."

Mu Mian's smile froze. She looked at Fang Rui seriously, then looked away as if nothing had happened.

After Mu Mian left, Xiao Zhang asked in confusion: "Boss, why do you keep asking about that? Maybe she was tired yesterday and fell asleep?"

Xiao Zhang felt that this question was of no help in solving the case.

"I just want to confirm my guess." Fang Rui stared at Mu Mian's back, his eyes were a little unpredictable.

Xiao Zhang frowned. Their boss rarely looked at anyone so intently - except for those vicious criminals in prison.

So -

"Boss, you are not suspecting that she has a dual personality, are you?"

Xiao Zhang suddenly realized, and he speculated: "Is that so? After Mu Mian fell asleep yesterday, her other personality appeared and killed the deceased. And her current personality has no memory of what happened last night.

No wonder she is so sleepy today, probably because she was too tired after killing someone last night. And she is also a forensic doctor, she should be very good at autopsy."

Xiao Zhang felt that his reasoning was so brilliant, logical, reasonable, and not at all unworthy of the careful training of the police academy.

However, he saw Fang Rui looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Xiao Zhang began to feel unconfident, "Boss, what did I say wrong?"

Fang Rui said, "Very imaginative." He changed his tone slightly, "How about you quit your job and write novels?"

Xiao Zhang: "..." This is definitely impossible, he had worked so hard to pass the civil service exam!
