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

Chapter 97 Chrysanthemums? Congcong's unusual behavior? Dig?!

As a prime suspect in the murder case, Song Xiong was not subject to a 24-hour summons restriction.

Since he doesn't confess voluntarily, and given the rule of law in our society, there's nothing we can do about it except send people to "keep him on his toes" in turn.

Anyway, there are many of them, and in the end, the only one who can't hold on is Song Xiong. But no one knows how long Song Xiong can last. Moreover, Song Xiong is a habitual liar, and no one can guarantee that what he tells in the end will be the whole truth.

So at the same time.

The investigation cannot be stopped, so Xu Yunli plans to go to Song Xiong's hometown to see if he can find any clues there.

Ankang Village is very likely the final dumping ground for the body. Song Xiong killed someone and dismembered the body in the rented room, but transported the body all the way back to Ankang Village. There must be a reason.

Xu Yunli glanced at Nan Shu, but didn't react when she came over. Instead, Brother Wang waved to Nan Shu, signaling her to come and help.

The three of them packed their things and boarded the car to Ankang Village.

This is Nan Shu's second visit to Ankang Village.

A familiar road.

The police quietly took Song Xiong away last night, so the villagers didn't know.

A black SUV was parked in front of Song Xiong's house. The villagers only glanced at it and didn't pay much attention. After all, Song Xiong had just gotten engaged yesterday, and it was normal for other relatives to come to his house.

Nan Shu got out of the car.

Brother Wang was carrying the suitcase and was walking at the front, just about to knock on Song Xiong's door.

A questioning female voice suddenly sounded behind me.

"Officer Xiaonan?"

Nan Shu was taken aback; the voice was incredibly familiar.

Turning around, he met Yang Ruolan's questioning eyes.

Yang Ruolan always remembered her daughter's words that dogs need to be walked, so even though Congcong was a dog raised in the countryside, the elderly couple would walk it around the village twice a day for at least half an hour each time.

in the past.

The elderly couple would subconsciously avoid Song Xiong's house, out of sight, out of mind.

But when Congcong saw that car today, he was particularly excited, and Yang Ruolan subconsciously followed. She didn't expect it to be Nan Shu.

"Officer Xiao Nan, what brings you to Song Xiong's house?"

Yang Ruolan looked at Xu Yunli and the other person with a puzzled expression. Her gaze fell on the boxes in their hands, and her eyes flickered as if she had guessed something. Her face turned pale.

"Could it be..."

The body is shaky.

"Aunt Yang." Nan Shu moved her lips and stepped forward to support her arm. Now that the case has progressed to this point, it's impossible to hide it anymore. The two of them have to know the truth.

"Who is it? So early in the morning!"

Before Nan Shu could finish speaking, a thin woman came out of the house. Her features were about 50% similar to Song Xiong's, and her skin was dark. It was obvious that she often did farm work in the fields, and her hands were covered with calluses.

Song Xiong's mother also had the surname Song, and her name was Song Xiang.

She is a single mother. Song Xiong lost his father when he was six years old and was raised by Song Xiang alone.

Upon seeing Xu Yunli and the others, a hint of wariness and hostility flashed in the woman's dark eyes.

I watched the group through the iron gate.

"What are you doing here? Where's my son? You officials think you're so great?! You ruined my son's happy day yesterday. If my daughter-in-law runs away because of this, will you compensate me with another daughter-in-law?"

It was indeed a shameful matter, and although Song Xiang said this, she didn't dare to raise her voice.

The villagers love to gossip and watch the drama unfold. If they heard this, the Song family would be ruined. Song Xiang's daughter-in-law, Wang Fangfang, heard the commotion and came out. Standing under the eaves, she looked at Nan Shu with a puzzled expression, as if wondering why she had come yesterday and again today.

They were even more puzzled as to what Song Xiong had done to warrant such a commotion from the police.

"Police, we suspect Song Xiong is involved in a murder case and we need to conduct a full search of your house. Here is the search warrant."

Brother Wang is the oldest and has seen many difficult family members. He knows that in these situations, it's best to say as little as possible.

They immediately produced their police identification and search warrant.

Song Xiang and Yang Ruolan both turned pale at the same time. Song Xiang, who was all bark and no bite, suddenly lost her composure when she saw how assertive Brother Wang was. She muttered a few words, as if she were cursing in her dialect, but she still obediently opened the iron gate.

Yang Ruolan grabbed Nan Shu's hand tightly, "Officer Nan, a murder case? What murder case? Could it be Yao Yao?"

This was the first time Nan Shu had faced the deceased's family directly.

Meeting Yang Ruolan's expectant gaze, which seemed to be seeking a negative answer, Nan Shu felt as if something was stuck in her throat.

Can't say a word.

Yang Ruolan understood. Her eyes reddened, and she seemed to age ten years in an instant. This matter was too heavy, bending her already hunched back.

Seeing this, Xu Yunli and the other person simply left Nan Shu to comfort the deceased's family while they went in to search first.

At this time.

Congcong, who had been very quiet, suddenly shouted at Song Xiong's door and struggled to rush inside.

After Shen Yao disappeared, Yang Ruolan's health deteriorated. Congcong was quite strong, and if she hadn't let go in time, she might have been pulled to the ground by Congcong.

"Congcong?!"

Yang Ruolan called out anxiously.

Nan Shu held her arm, but her eyes were fixed on Congcong, watching it paw at the chrysanthemums in the flowerbed, her eyes swirling with emotion.

"Xu Yunli!"

This unexpected turn of events left everyone puzzled.

Wang Fangfang was the first to react and tried to shoo Congcong away. After all, this was her fiancé's favorite chrysanthemum, which he treasured like a precious gem, but now Congcong had made a mess of it.

This was the first time Nan Shu had called Xu Yunli by his full name. He looked up at Nan Shu, and Nan Shu looked up as well. Their eyes met.

Xu Yunli's fox-like eyes behind the glasses flickered slightly, and he understood.

He stepped forward carrying his examination kit.

Congcong glanced at Xu Yunli, as if it understood what he was going to do, let out a howl, stopped what it was doing, and stepped aside.

Brother Wang didn't understand why, but he still followed along.

Open the forensic kit, take out the folding shovel; the forensic doctor's kit is never short of all sorts of strange and unusual tools.

The two began shoveling soil.

The chrysanthemums, which were blooming so brightly, were just pulled up and lay to the side. When Wang Fangfang saw this, she didn't dare to stop them and just watched what the two of them were doing.

Yang Ruolan had actually been prepared for this, but she still held onto a sliver of hope. Now that hope was shattered, she stared intently at Song Xiang, as if she wanted to tear a piece of Song Xiang off.

Song Xiang was a bully who preyed on the weak. Being stared at like that, she suddenly didn't dare to say anything. She just took the mop and swept the already spotless ground, glancing at the flower bed from time to time.

The excavated soil was piled up into a small heap; it was purely manual labor.

When he had dug to a depth of about half a meter, Xu Yunli shoveled down.

'bite'--
