Chapter 950: There’s Something Wrong with This Piece of Clothing

That woman with a size of 36…

She was the real murderer, and everything else was set up by someone to divert the police’s attention and stall for time so that the murderer could play with the police.

“Xiao Long, you continue to stay here and protect Shanshan. I’ll go back to the station first,” Tang Yan suddenly turned to Officer Long and said.

“But Captain Tang, I’m afraid… I can’t protect Junior Sister Shanshan well.”

“You just need to make sure that strangers don’t get close to the ward. Pretend that you don’t know that the suspect is around,” Tang Yan said and patted Officer Long’s shoulder. “I’ll go find the real murderer.”

“Captain Tang, you mean… This man is not the real murderer?”

Tang Yan didn’t say anything. He left the hospital as fast as he could. After returning to the station, he called Mu Qiqi. “Qiqi, I have something very important to ask you. How tall is Lou Zhao?”

“About 170 centimeters.”

“But the ligature marks on his neck are slanted downward from the center of his neck to both sides. What does this mean?”

“The murderer is not as tall as the victim,” Mu Qiqi answered seriously. “But we can’t rule out the possibility that the murderer would set up a trap because such injuries are easy to fake.”

“At the first scene, we also found a group of women’s footprints. They usually belong to those between 145 and 160 centimeters tall,” Tang Yan explained the reason for his question.

After Mu Qiqi heard it, she quickly continued, “Lou Zhao is a man. Although he is already middle-aged, he is still physically healthy. We have not considered women. However, we cannot exclude anyone. She could be a fitness enthusiast. In other words, she could have skills like boxing and fighting.”

“My suggestion is, Captain Tang, you can go to the scene again. With a new perspective, you will definitely gain a lot.

“Of course, it would be even better if you could bring me along.”

When Tang Yan heard her last sentence, he rejected it without thinking. “Your family won’t agree to it this time.”

Mu Qiqi put down her phone and secretly looked at Sheng Xiao, who was sitting at the side reading a document. He was serious. He didn’t even look at her. This person was busy.

“Xiao Xiao, Captain Tang has something to tell you…” Mu Qiqi took the opportunity to throw the difficult question at Tang Yan.

Sheng Xiao looked up at Mu Qiqi. He did not answer the phone but instead asked her directly, “Do you think I’m deaf? I heard everything you said just now.”

Mu Qiqi was stunned for a moment. She felt like she had been pregnant for three years.

“There’s a new development in the case. You want to solve Lou Zhao’s case as soon as possible, right?

“You’re eight months pregnant now!”

“With you here and Captain Tang,” Mu Qiqi said seriously. “I’m not the only one involved in the case, but I want to help. The Song family is making a move on the people around us. Soon, it’ll be our turn.”

Sheng Xiao put down the document and crossed his legs to look at her. After a few seconds of silence, he reached out to Mu Qiqi. “Give me your phone.”

Mu Qiqi obediently handed over the phone. When she saw Sheng Xiao get up and walk to the window to talk to Tang Yan, then he returned to her and gave the phone to Mu Qiqi. “Don’t try to be brave.”

“Never.” Mu Qiqi raised her hand to swear.

However, Sheng Xiao did not believe her at all. “It’s really useless to see you swear.”


Even so, Sheng Xiao still brought Mu Qiqi out of the door.

On the way, Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao’s side profile.

“Although you didn’t say anything, I know that you’ve taken Lou Zhao’s death on yourself.

“In your heart, you want to catch this murderer faster than anyone else in Team Tang, and give the Lou family justice.

“Your public statements in support of the Lou family are the best evidence.

“Xiao Xiao, I don’t have to put myself in danger. I just feel that I can really help you with this matter. That’s why I asked you to bring me out.

“This is my territory. Let me protect you too, okay?”

After hearing Mu Qiqi’s words, Sheng Xiao suddenly laughed. “Then you have to protect me well, you little thing who don’t know the immensity of Heaven and Earth.”

“Hmph, you’re looking down on me!”

Regardless of whether Mu Qiqi had the ability or not, Sheng Xiao felt that her saying those words had convinced him.

Soon, the three of them gathered at the scene of the murder. As they were in the demolition area, there was no power supply, so Tang Yan prepared a flashlight for the two of them.

“It’s very messy in here. I’ll have to trouble you to protect Qiqi well. Don’t fall,” Tang Yan reminded.

Everyone in Jianchuan knew how precious this person was.

If anything happened to her here, Tang Yan thought that he probably wouldn’t be able to live anymore.

Sheng Xiao supported Mu Qiqi while Mu Qiqi herself was also very careful.

Ever since they entered the scene of the murder, she had been very cautious. She had been listening to Tang Yan’s description of what happened on the wall.

“This is where Lou Zhao died.”

Mu Qiqi squatted with Sheng Xiao’s help and carefully observed her surroundings.

“What are you looking for?”

“If it’s really as you said, that there’s a woman involved in this case, then under such intense movements, strands of her hair should have fallen.” Mu Qiqi picked up a strand of long red hair from the ground. “Did the forensics team confirm it?”

“Of course they confirmed it. This hair belongs to the original owner of this house.”

After Mu Qiqi heard this, she got up with Sheng Xiao’s help. “Master Xiao, help me walk around.”

The two of them walked around the house with torches in their hands. Mu Qiqi did not even let go of a few bedrooms.

“The original owner did not seem to have taken anything with her when she moved. There are still so many clothes here.” When she said this, Mu Qiqi was in front of the wooden wardrobe. After she finished speaking, Mu Qiqi took off one of the clothes and smelled it carefully, it was full of the smell of mold. Of course, there was also a trace of perfume.

Mu Qiqi took another one and found that there was only a musty smell on it.

“Captain Tang, when did the original owner move away?” Mu Qiqi suddenly asked sensitively.

“Four months ago,” Tang Yan answered outside.

“There’s something wrong with this piece of clothing.” Mu Qiqi handed a beige windbreaker to Tang Yan. “See if you can extract something important.”

“What’s the problem?”

“There’s the scent of perfume in the dress.”

“The original owner left this behind?” Tang Yan took the windbreaker and sniffed it.

“You men don’t use perfume, so you don’t know anything about perfume. No matter how famous a perfume is, it will last for at most five days on clothing. Besides, the other clothes all have a musty smell. It’s the only one that has a fragrance. From the time of the murder until now, two days and three nights had passed. It is still the fragrance period of high-end perfume. It could be seen that during the time Lou Zhao was killed, the clothes had been worn by a woman who likes to wear perfume. This fragrance was the result of rubbing against the clothes.”

Mu Qiqi explained to Tang Yan.

“Can you determine the specific brand?” Tang Yan asked.
