I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

Xu Yunli's expression froze, and he lowered his eyes.

No response is taken as an admission.

What's your name in the live stream?

Fortunately, Nan Punian didn't think too much about it, since everyone in the team knew that Nan Shu's main job was live streaming.

Xu Yunli pursed her lips.

Nan Punian waited for a long time without receiving a reply. He put his suitcase on the security conveyor belt, glanced at him strangely, and was about to ask him what was wrong. It was just a name, why was he hiding it? Then he heard Nan Shu's voice suddenly rise.

"Brother Lei!"

The two men's expressions froze for a moment, and they quickly forgot about the question.

Nan Punian looked at Nan Shu, "Did you get through?"

"Ah."

Nan Shu nodded, gestured to the security personnel, and walked to the corner with her phone.

"X-Xiaonan?"

Lei's voice trembled uncontrollably.

He was clearly quite frightened.

"Yes, it's me, Brother Lei. How are you and your assistant? Are you safe?"

Nan Shu quickly asked.

"Safe, safe."

Lei took a deep breath and looked at the corpse not far away.

an hour ago.

Upon seeing the body, Lei's mind went blank; it was only his assistant's scream that brought him back to his senses.

Lei Ge served in the army in his early years and participated in earthquake relief efforts during his service, where he saw many corpses.

He's seen all sorts of horrific things, so it's unlikely he's that afraid of corpses.

It just happened suddenly.

He was caught off guard and before he could react, the assistant dropped the flashlight in fright.

The flashlight spun on the ground, its beam moving erratically before finally settling on the corpse.

The deceased appeared to be around fifty or sixty years old, with a few strands of silver hair mixed in with his black hair. His eyes were bloodshot and wide open, and his slightly swollen and purplish face still bore the marks of pain. He died with his eyes wide open, unable to rest in peace.

One can imagine the terrible and inhumane treatment this person suffered during his lifetime.

His assistant's shout brought him back to his senses. Although he knew that many viewers in the live stream might have seen what happened, not everyone would necessarily call the police. To be on the safe side, Lei took out his phone from his pocket, intending to call the police.

The assistant suddenly yelled again, as if he had recovered from extreme shock and his adrenaline was surging. Before Brother Lei could tell him to shut up, the assistant screamed and ran downstairs.

Lei Ge: ...

After hesitating for a moment, Brother Lei decided to find his assistant first.

He enjoys watching crime and suspense dramas and knows that some psychologically disturbed murderers may return to the crime scene.

It's so dark, and the assistant is all alone; something could easily happen.

He put his phone back in his pocket, grabbed a flashlight, and ran downstairs. In his haste, the phone accidentally fell out of his pocket.

Therefore, Nan Punian's previous phone calls did not go through.

Lei Ge found his assistant on the first floor. Outside, there were dense weeds that were almost taller than a person. When the assistant ran down to the first floor, he saw the weeds swaying in the wind like ghost hands and was momentarily intimidated, which is why he didn't run more than two miles away.

How come he never noticed before that his little assistant was such a fast runner... Brother Lei couldn't help but think as he dragged the person back.

Subsequently.

He then realized he had lost his phone, so he held someone's hand with one hand and used a flashlight with the other to search for it.

Just then, I received a call from Nan Shu.

"That's good." Nan Shu breathed a sigh of relief. "The police are on their way. Lei, you guys just stay put and wait, and keep an eye on your surroundings..."

The surroundings were exceptionally quiet, so even Lei Ge's assistant, who was standing close to him, heard Nan Shu's words.

He couldn't help but swallow, glancing around. They were on the third floor, and the corpse was not far away, dark and slightly swollen... A cold wind blew, and the plastic film covering the corpse rustled and rose and fell.

It was as if... the corpse was moving.

There was a small hill opposite, covered with dense, rolling woods, pitch black in the night, except for their place, where lights were on.

The light gave them a sense of security, but in the darkness, it also made them their only target.

They had no idea that at that moment, there was someone, a pair of eyes, lurking in the shadows, watching them intently.

'Gulp'

The assistant was terrified by his own imagination and pressed himself closer to Brother Lei, almost hanging on him.

Lei Ge: ...

"Okay, thank you for reminding us, Xiao Nan. We'll be careful..."

Lei Ge's forehead twitched, but in the end he still didn't tear his assistant off.

He instinctively reached into his pocket and felt for a switchblade. If the killer really wanted to do something to them, he wouldn't be afraid.

Just then, the sound of a horn came from afar.

"Brother Lei! Brother Lei!"

The assistant, fearing she had misheard, asked Brother Lei for confirmation, her voice trembling with excitement and on the verge of tears.

"I heard."

Lei Ge replied impatiently, but his tone softened instantly when he was chatting with Nan Shu, "Nan, we heard sirens, the police should be here soon."

Nan Shu saw that Nan Punian, who was not far away, also made a gesture to her, telling her that Wang Yaqin and her people were about to arrive at the scene.

With the information confirmed, Nan Shu was completely relieved.

"That's good…"

After checking into security and confirming that Lei Ge and the other person were safe, they chatted for a few more minutes before hanging up the phone.

……

The plane swept through the night.

The three arrived at the detachment a little after 3 a.m.

Brother Wang had already brought the body back to the detachment. Xu Yunli changed into protective clothing and plunged into the autopsy room.

"The deceased was unknown, 53 years old, a lawyer, and also a visiting lecturer at Seoul National University's College of Law, and was very well-known in the industry."

Wang Yaqin handed the documents to Nan Punian, walked to Nan Shu's side, raised her hand to pinch Nan Shu's cool face, and turned around to pour her a cup of hot water.

"His ex-wife, Wang Ai, is fifteen years younger than the deceased. She is also a lawyer. She divorced Mo Xun during her pregnancy and currently lives alone in Hucheng with her child. She has almost no contact with Mo Xun..."

“This lawyer…” Wang Yaqin paused, her expression subtle, “Well, his reputation is quite mixed.”

Actually, Wang Yaqin's words were quite tactful.

Based on the information found so far, she didn't find any praise, but she found a whole bunch of criticism.

This includes, but is not limited to, helping bosses who owed employees wages to file lawsuits, resulting in each employee receiving tens of thousands less in compensation; sexually harassing female subordinates; and using sophistry in a car accident case to ensure that a family of five who died in the accident received less than 300,000 yuan in compensation.

"Tongue-pulling?"

Nan Punian looked at the preliminary forensic report. The body had no tongue, and there were very obvious signs of life at the wound site.

That is to say...

Mo Xun was conscious when his hands and feet were tied, and then his tongue was forcibly pulled out.

Excessive bleeding, coupled with the extreme stress he was in, caused blood to block his trachea, leading to mechanical asphyxiation and death. (End of Chapter)
