Chapter 8 Cat-Fetus Case: Has the real murderer been caught?

Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang arrived at the square early

in the morning. There were many elderly people doing morning exercises, and the scene was noisy and lively. But Fang Rui spotted Mu Mian in the crowd at a glance.

She was still wearing a thick scarf, curled up in the scarf, staring at the green trees in the flowerbed.

Xiao Zhang followed Fang Rui's line of sight and saw Mu Mian.

"Forensic Doctor Mu, are you standing here doing morning exercises?" Xiao Zhang was a little surprised. Mu Mian didn't look like someone who liked sports.

"I'm waiting for a car."

"You're not allowed to park here, how can you possibly wait for a car here? You have to stand by the road and wait."

Mu Mian glanced at Fang Rui, then looked away, "Now you're waiting."

Xiao Zhang felt puzzled, "Where is the car? Why don't I see it?"

"Go wait for us in the car," Fang Rui handed Mu Mian the key, "Xiao Zhang and I have a mission."

Xiao Zhang understood instantly that Mu Mian wanted to take their car. But how did she know that it was wrong for them to come here this morning, and how did the boss know that she was waiting for them

? Xiao Zhang felt isolated!

Mu Mian did not take the key. "I will go with you to investigate. I am very familiar with this place. When I first moved here, I would inspect the environment of Xizhou in the community every day. Although I have reduced the frequency to once a week now, it should not affect it."

Xiao Zhang was stunned. Was Mu Mian a spy before? Or did she offend someone? Why did she have to inspect the environment around her residence every day?

Fang Rui recently supplemented some information about autism. Many autistic patients are very resistant to unfamiliar environments. They need to familiarize themselves with the environment over and over again before they can adapt themselves. So he was not surprised by Mu Mian's behavior.

"Do you know who knows more about stray cats?"

"Her," Mu Mian pointed to a girl squatting on the lawn, "According to my statistics, she feeds stray cats most often here."

The girl was young and sweet-looking, with several skinny kittens clustered around her feet.

"Hello, I'm Zhang Qiang from the Municipal Bureau. We need your cooperation in investigating something." Xiao Zhang showed his ID, "Have you seen this cat?" Then he showed the girl a photo.

The girl's name is Bai Jing. She just graduated from college this year and is a social worker in the community. She first looked at Mu Mian with a surprised expression, then took the photo and examined it carefully for a while, "Yes, I know him. I have fed this cat before."

Bai Jing pointed to the photo, "Look at its ear, there is a small piece missing here. I used to feed it ham sausage. But I haven't seen it much recently."

"How long have you not seen it?"

"About five days."

"Are there many people feeding cats here?"

"Quite a lot. There is a university town nearby, and many students come here to feed cats. There are also many people in our community who come to feed cats occasionally."

"Do you all know each other?" "

Almost all the people who come to feed cats often know each other. We have a group, and there are many friends who love cats like me."

"Can you recommend this group to us?"

"Sure." Bai Jing turned on her phone and added Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang to the group. "This group is mainly for discussing some experiences in raising cats. There's nothing special."

"Among these people who feed cats with you, has anyone behaved abnormally recently?"

"It seems not. We only communicate occasionally when we feed the cats. In fact, we don't know each other very well. Ah, I remember that there was a man in our community who came here to feed the cats every morning, and the cat food he fed was particularly expensive, so I had a deep impression of him. It seems his name was Zhu..."

Bai Jing couldn't seem to remember clearly, but she immediately stopped a passing courier, "Chen Hui, come here."

The courier named Chen Hui stopped the car. He was tall, slightly fat, with fair skin, wearing a pair of rigid black-framed glasses, but with a smile on his face.

"Bai Jing, what's up?"

"What's the name of the person who used to feed cats with us and liked to feed imported cat food? The one with the surname Zhu, who always liked to wear a blue shirt?"

"Zhu Yaming." Chen Hui immediately said the man's name.

Xiao Zhang quickly wrote down the name.

Fang Rui asked them if they knew Li Yan.

Hearing this name, Bai Jing and Chen Hui both showed disgusted expressions. Bai Jing said angrily: "She is just a crazy woman, always crazy, whoever she catches will be in trouble!"

She pointed to the grass not far away, "Right there, she almost kicked a stray cat to death, just because the cat rubbed against her. This kind of bad woman will definitely get retribution."

"How is the kitten?"

"It was sent to the pet hospital by a kind-hearted person and he was cured. The person later adopted it. Ah, that person seems to be Zhu Yaming."

Fang Rui asked: "Do many people know about this?"

"Quite a lot. It was a weekend and many people saw her abusing the cat. Someone even took a video and posted it online."

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation." After asking the question, Fang Rui was about to leave, but he saw Mu Mian staring at the courier named Chen Hui.

Chen Hui also felt Mu Mian's gaze, and he scratched his head awkwardly, "Ms. Mu, there is no international express mail from your sister today. If there was, I would definitely contact you immediately."

Mu Mian's expression was a little disappointed, "She used to send me the medical magazine I asked for on time, she wouldn't forget."

Xiao Zhang said, "Then you call your sister."

Mu Mian lowered her head and said nothing.

Chen Hui helped to explain, "Ms. Mu had a conflict with her sister, so she refused to contact her sister."

Fang Rui was a little surprised. This courier named Chen Hui seemed to know Mu Mian well.

After getting in the car, Fang Rui asked a rare gossip: "Are you familiar with that Chen Hui?"

"No. He is a good person, because he is the first person who responded to my smile after I came here."

"Are you friends with him?"

"No, I don't have any friends," Mu Mian was still in a low mood, "I'm in trouble, no one is willing to be my friend."

Her sister was her therapist and one of the few people who could accept her unconditionally, but now it seemed that her sister had also abandoned her.

Mu Mian was a little frustrated, and she regretted quarreling with her sister.

When they arrived at the police station, Fang Rui immediately asked Xiao Zhang and others to investigate Zhu Yaming.

In less than half a day, Xiao Zhang had investigated Zhu Yaming's situation: "Boss, this Zhu Yaming works in a foreign trade company. His financial conditions were good, but because he lost a lot of money in stock speculation in recent years, his wife divorced him and sold the house, so he had to live with his parents. He is a petty person and has a bad reputation in the community, but he has not done anything bad and has no criminal record. His neighbors reported that he seemed to have made a small fortune recently and became a lot richer."

Xiao Zhang paused and continued: "By the way, he is also a pet blogger. It was him who uploaded the video of Li Yan abusing a cat to the Internet and became famous for it."

"Let's go and talk to him."

Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang arrived at Zhu Yaming's home. When his parents saw the police coming, they immediately became panicked. Zhu's father asked in a low voice: "Officer, are you here because our Xiao Ming has done something illegal?"

Xiao Zhang comforted them: "Uncle and aunt, don't be nervous, we are just here to understand some circumstances, just tell us the truth."

"I...we will definitely cooperate. You sit down first," Zhu's father winked at Zhu's mother, and then said hurriedly: "You old woman, why don't you go make tea? Quick, go to Ya Ming's room and take out the black tea he brought back from abroad to entertain the two officers."

Xiao Zhang waved his hands hurriedly, "Uncle, don't be so polite, there's no need to make tea, we just want to find Zhu Ya Ming to ask some questions. At this time, he should be off work soon."

Zhu's mother was stunned where she was, not knowing whether to go or not, and she looked embarrassed.

Seeing this, Zhu's father yelled at her: "You useless old woman, you can't even make tea! You stay here to entertain the police officer, I'll go find some tea! Useless old thing!" Then he walked into the room on the left.

Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang looked at each other, and both found that the behavior of the two old people was a bit strange.

Fang Rui smiled and pretended to joke: "I have only heard that foreign coffee is delicious. I wonder if foreign tea will be better than domestic tea?"

Zhu's mother was filling a fruit plate. When she heard this, her face changed and the plate in her hand fell to the ground.

Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang realized that something was wrong and immediately rushed into the room, only to see Zhu's father pouring water on a notebook.

A bottle of mineral water was poured down, and the entire notebook was scrapped.

At this moment, Zhu's mother outside the door suddenly shouted, "Yaming, run, there are police in the house!"

Fang Rui and Xiao Zhang immediately chased out, and soon caught a middle-aged man at the entrance of the stairs. He was wearing a shirt and glasses, and looked gentle.
