Chapter 49: How can it not be considered sleeping in the same bed? Find the murderer!!!
A fluffy fox lay at the head of the bed, wagging its chubby tail to look cute.
Bai Shao didn't hear what she was thinking, so she asked back based on her feelings: "Have you forgotten that you are not an ordinary fox? Do you think it is possible for a man and a woman to be alone in the same room?"
The fox's ears drooped in frustration.
Bai Shao stood quietly beside the bed, her long raven-black eyelashes drooping as she stared at the fox quietly.
Driven by the almost staring gaze, the snow-white and smooth little ball jumped off the bed. It looked back every few steps, blinking its big amber eyes, and portrayed its pitifulness to the fullest.
Bai Shao's heart softened, and her face towel almost dropped to the ground: "Okay, you sleep at the end of the bed."
The fox, who had only wanted to be petted, suddenly had his eyes light up, as if the whole world was filled with petals of happiness: "How can this not be considered sharing a bed?"
Hear this.
Bai Shao's eyes twitched, and she subconsciously bent her middle finger and flicked Fox's head. After doing this, she was stunned.
The fox boy's voice was lazy but filled with joy: [It doesn't hurt.]
Bai Shao lowered her eyes and looked at her fingers. She remembered that she didn't have this habit... Suppressing her turbulent emotions, Bai Shao lay on the bed and fell asleep unknowingly.
at night.
The fox, who was kicked off the bed repeatedly, climbed up panting with a small pillow in his mouth.
The fox rubbed his kicked hind legs and decided not to sleep. He squatted beside Bai Shao's pillow and used his tail to drive away mosquitoes that actually did not dare to approach him.
midnight.
Someone knocked on Bai Shao's bedroom door, waking her up from her sleep.
"Who is it?"
The old police officer knocked on the door three more times: "It's me."
The fox rushed out to open the door.
The old police officer turned on the light, but didn't see anyone at the door. He was shocked: "Where's Bai... Bai Shao?"
Bai Shao muttered under the quilt: "This."
The old police officer took a deep breath, and cold sweat broke out on his back: "The one who opened the door is..."
The fox tilted its head and called out in a strangled voice: "As for me, I'm so cute and well-behaved, the officer definitely isn't here to arrest me...right?"
Bai Shao, with messy hair, struggled to get up from the bed: "Uncle Ren, what's the matter?"
The old police officer explained his purpose: "The Criminal Investigation Brigade in neighboring Wutong City has been cracking a serial dismemberment case. The suitcase that was caught on the livestream belonged to one of the victims... They've been following the case for a month and suddenly found a new lead. They called us in Jiangcheng and asked if you could help them catch the suspect."
Bai Shao washed her face and washed away the sleepiness.
"I'm not sure, but I'll try my best."

at the same time.
Wutong City, Criminal Investigation Bureau.
Half a month has passed since the crime occurred, and the Criminal Investigation Brigade is still at a loss. Urgency and anxiety hang over everyone's heads. In a few days, they will lose the best time to track down the murderer.
In order to seek justice for the deceased, they must bring the criminal to justice at all costs. Unfortunately, the criminal they are facing is a smart man with strong anti-detection ability, who has left no clues to solve the case.
They identified several suspects, but because they had no direct evidence and did not find the intact body of the victim, they could not confirm who the murderer was.
Next to the workstation desk.
A beautiful woman with bloodshot eyes stared straight at the man with his shirt open, and her tone was not very polite.
"Captain Xiao, is the person your third brother recommended a psychology professor or criminology expert?"
The man had short hair and a hideous old scar on the side of his neck, extending all the way under his shirt. His face, resembling Xiao Wenjing's, was masked by his unshaven beard, adding a touch of toughness and fortitude.
Yin Qi strode forward, a flash of pain in her eyes, and her hand gripping the man's collar trembled slightly. "My sister and you grew up together, so it's not an exaggeration to say we're childhood sweethearts. Even if there's some conflict between our elders, the younger generation shouldn't be affected. Why don't you do your best to catch the murderer? Why is he still at large?!"
Xiao Qixing's eyes were deep: "Yin Qi, I understand your feelings, but please give us some more time."
Yin Qi roared, "That's enough! I don't have the time to mess with you. If I don't catch the murderer tomorrow, don't let any of you stop me from burying my sister!"
A warning flashed through Xiao Qiexing's narrow eyes: "Before the murder case is closed, the body can be buried, but it needs to be inspected and identified by the authorities."
Yin Qi sneered, "Why do you think I can't get the inspection and appraisal report?"
Xiao Qiexing pursed his lips into a line.
Yin Qi gritted her teeth and said, "If you have any self-awareness, you shouldn't show up at my sister's funeral. Someone who can't even catch the murderer doesn't deserve to be mourned."
Xiao Qiexing closed his eyes. He also wanted to catch the murderer. The girl who was talking and laughing with him the day before, couldn't even put her body together the next day.
The Qi family’s grief was just one of three such sufferings.
Xiao Qiexing closed his eyes in sorrow.
"Ms. Yin, right?"
"I don't quite agree with what you said. When it comes to not being able to catch the murderer, aren't you one of them?"
"What qualifications do you have to criticize the man who worked so hard to seek justice for your sister?"
Bai Shao stood quietly outside the glass door, with bright lights shining down from above her head, but it was still impossible to discern the meaning on her face. Her aura was so strong that she was not afraid at all in the oppressive environment, and she had more time to interrogate Yin Qi.
Xiao Qiexing's eyes were filled with a hint of surprise. No wonder his third brother said that he met someone who looked very similar to his cousin's great-aunt.
It does look alike.
Not only does it look alike, but this unreasonable mouth is like the reincarnation of my cousin's aunt.
Yin Qi was stopped in her tracks. She looked up and down at the girl who appeared at the door. "Who are you?"
The old police officer stepped out from the side and applauded, "Let me introduce Bai Shao, the director of Jiangcheng Forest Zoo and a specially appointed member of the Security Bureau. Welcome everyone."
There was applause one after another.
Bai Shao quietly raised her palm to her mouth and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Ren, when did I become a staff member? How come I didn't know?"
The old police officer was afraid that Bai Shao would refuse, so he quickly changed the subject: "We'll talk about this later. Let's deal with the case first."
Bai Shao: "..."
It's forced buying and selling, right?
Xiao Qiexing's eyes were as deep as a cold pond, and his palms, covered with tiny scars and rough calluses, were placed over the cage.
"Knowing you were coming, I asked someone to search for animals near the crime scene in advance."
"We are not sure whether the animals that appeared at the crime scene had also appeared half a month ago.
"So, I need you to identify it, Comrade Bai. Is there anything else I need?"
Bai Shao's voice was tinged with a smile: "Please go out for a moment. Your presence is making them a little anxious."
Yin Qi watched in shock as Xiao Qixing emerged from the interrogation room. She had never seen him so gentle. At that moment, he was like a beast with its claws and fangs retracted, his fierceness eclipsed by a gentleness.
"Are you so gentle to my sister? You are not unconventional, so it is inevitable that you will be tempted by her beauty."
Xiao Qiexing frowned: "You misunderstood..."
Yin Qi's eyes were filled with sorrow: "There's no need to explain to me, the person who wants to hear your explanation is already dead.
Xiao Qiexing closed his eyes, paused for a moment, and walked straight towards the monitoring room.
Yin Qi couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Qie Xing, do you know that my sister likes you? You rejected her time and time again, forcing her to find someone similar to you as a solace. If you had agreed to her pursuit and stayed with her that night, would my sister not have died?"
Xiao Qiexing paused, then closed the door of the monitoring room, blocking out all sounds from the outside world.
