Seeing the crime scene flashbacks made me the darling of the police station.

Chapter 164 The Murderer's House Was Seen

On the way back to the Municipal Bureau.

Zhuang Yanzheng received a call from Yan Cheng.

Yan Cheng led his men to Luo Min's residence, but no one was there.

I checked the security footage inside the elevator.

Luo Min left nine days ago and has not returned.

I also checked the electricity consumption at her residence, and it was confirmed that the electricity consumption had indeed started to decrease nine days ago.

Their whereabouts are currently unknown.

No clues were found at her residence.

I contacted her parents.

Her parents haven't been in contact for half a month.

We usually contact each other once every month or two, so I didn't think much of it.

Zhuang Yanzheng told them to go back to the municipal bureau first, as the body parts retrieved from the river needed to be examined by Yan Cheng.

Lu Zhishen was driving.

Zhuang Yanzheng hung up the phone and looked at Su Miaoyi.

Su Miaoyi's hair had almost dried naturally, but her clothes were still wet.

"Put me at the entrance of the Municipal Bureau in a bit, then you take her back."

“Okay,” Lu Zhishen replied.

Su Miaoyi wiped her nose with a tissue: "There are change of clothes in the lounge, no need to go back."

What does Zhuang Yanzheng want to say?

Su Miaoyi interrupted him: "No, we're going back to the Municipal Bureau."

Zhuang Yanzheng didn't say anything more and turned to look ahead.

Su Miaoyi sniffed again.

Something doesn't feel right; it seems like there's something wrong with the airflow.

Zhuang Yanzheng dozed off for ten minutes in the car.

Su Miaoyi hadn't slept all night and should have been very tired, but she felt a little cold and didn't dare to sleep, worried that she would get a fever if she fell asleep.

We arrived at the Municipal Bureau.

The black plastic bag was placed in the dissection room first.

Su Miaoyi went to the lounge to change her clothes.

When she came out after changing her clothes, she heard Chu Xingrou say to Zhuang Yanzheng, "Captain Zhuang, apart from Luo Min, we have contacted everyone else we found through the chat app and communicated with the local police."

Zhuang Yanzheng nodded: "The body parts have been recovered from the Changqing River. The police from the Hexi Branch are over there. Qi Feng, you two go over there."

"Okay," Qi Feng and Chu Xingrou replied.

After listening for a couple of minutes, Su Miaoyi went to the dissection room.

She put on her mask, gloves, and shoe covers just as Yan Cheng returned.

Yan Cheng looked at her first: "Are you alright? Zhuang Yanzheng said you went underwater to feed the fish."

Su Miaoyi: "I was so hungry that I wanted to catch a couple of fish to eat, but I ended up catching a bag of body parts."

Yan Cheng also put on a mask, gloves, and shoe covers before entering the dissection room.

The temperature in the autopsy room was very low, and the first thing you smelled when you entered was the smell of rotting corpses.

Yan Cheng opened the bag and looked inside, his eyes stinging: "So many pieces?"

Su Miaoyi nodded.

Yan Cheng dragged the plastic bag to the vicinity of the drain, then tore a hole in it, letting the water flow out and into the drain along the floor.

Su Miaoyi offered her help.

The two of them first took out the items that were easy to reach from inside.

Identify, clean, and arrange.

The internal organs were also broken, and they were rotten and discolored.

Until dawn.

They pieced all the body parts back together.

Su Miaoyi became somewhat withdrawn.

She no longer knew what nausea was.

"Are you alright?" Yan Cheng asked.

Su Miaoyi nodded: "It's alright. It's still recognizable that the corpse is female. It has no head or hands."

"Team Leader Zhuang said there's a case at the branch office involving only a head and hands," Yan Cheng said.

"Let's do a DNA test to confirm if they came from the same person," Su Miaoyi said.

"We still need to confirm the identity." Yan Cheng looked at the body parts. "The case at the branch office hasn't made any progress; we haven't found the missing person."

Su Miaoyi stood beside the dissection table without saying a word.

Yan Cheng took a scalpel and examined the body parts on the left side of the corpse's chest.

He suddenly noticed that Su Miaoyi had been standing there without moving. He looked up.

He noticed that Su Miaoyi's gaze was half-lowered, her eyes unblinking.

In fact, every time she saw certain images, it was very obvious.

It was as if my whole being had been frozen in place.

Especially the eyes, they will remain completely still, even the eyelashes are motionless.

Yan Cheng had just stood next to Su Miaoyi when she woke up.

He grasped her wrist once more.

Su Miaoyi felt a pain in her chest. She glanced at Yan Cheng first, then looked at the corpse's chest.

Yan Cheng followed her gaze and looked at her: "There is indeed a wound on your chest."

Su Miaoyi swallowed hard: "This should be Luo Min's body."

Yan Cheng was surprised.

Luo Min has been missing for nine days, and the decomposition of his body parts is about a week to ten days.

"The murderer?" Yan Cheng asked.

Su Miaoyi closed her eyes and thought for a moment: "I saw the murderer's residence in the image."

She found the name of the neighborhood in the picture.

Su Miaoyi opened her eyes and said, "I'm going to find Captain Zhuang."

With that, she hurriedly left the dissection room.

He took off his shoe covers and ran outside.

“Captain Zhuang.” Su Miaoyi grabbed Zhuang Yanzheng.

Zhuang Yanzheng was talking to the police with his back to her.

As a result, she grabbed me and spun me around halfway, so I was facing her.

Suddenly, Zhuang Yanzheng lost his balance and staggered before regaining his footing.

He looked at her.

Su Miaoyi immediately gave a very detailed address, down to the house number: "Zhu Xuan, the murderer is named Zhu Xuan. He's at this address, hurry over there."

Zhuang Yanzheng reacted quickly and immediately called the police.

On the way there by car.

Su Miaoyi and Lu Zhishen were talking about Zhu Xuan's appearance.

Portrait of Lu Zhishen.

Meanwhile, the police are also investigating information related to Zhu Xuan.

There are many people with the same name, and this person is not registered in Jinghai's household registration system. We need to check other cities as well.

Therefore, the portrait of Lu Zhishen was created simultaneously at the same time as the one created by the police station.

Su Miaoyi just saw the footage in the autopsy room.

The murderer, Zhu Xuan, and the deceased, Luo Min, knew each other.

Zhu Xuan's killing of Luo Min seems premeditated. It's just that Luo Min's appearance was very coincidental, so it seems she didn't proceed according to her plan.

She saw the scene from the perspective of the deceased.

As for why we are so certain that the deceased was Luo Min.

Because Zhu Xuan called her by that name.

Luo Min had just gotten off the subway and hadn't even left the station when someone patted her on the back: "Luo Min."

She turned her head, looked at the person in front of her, recognized him for a moment, and then exclaimed with delight, "Zhu Xuan. You're in Jinghai?"

Zhu Xuan smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't expect to run into you here. You've also come to Jinghai to develop your career."

"I'm just here to work," Luo Min said with a smile.

The two chatted as they exited the subway station.

It was a subway station that Su Miaoyi was very familiar with.

Her old phone broke down at this stop.

"Do you live nearby too?" Zhu Xuan asked.

"I live quite far from here, and things are cheaper here, so I came here to buy some things," Luo Min said.

“The same things are definitely cheaper here.” Zhu Xuan said, then paused and added, “Come sit at my place, it’s just across the street, very close.”

Luo Min wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, she did.

Zhu Xuan then said, "I need your help with something."

"You want my help?" Luo Min asked, puzzled.

"My computer is having some problems, could you take a look?" Zhu Xuan said. "The things on my computer are very important, and I don't feel comfortable taking it to a repair shop. I was just worried about it, and then I ran into you today."

"Do you still need me to fix it?" Luo Min said with a smile.

"Please take a look, I really have no other ideas," Zhu Xuan said.

“Okay then,” Luo Min agreed.
