Captain Lu was aloof again today.

Chapter 3 is just a deduction.

Chapter 3 is just a deduction.
"Sister Wei, please don't take offense. The team has been at a loss these past two days regarding the headless female corpse case, and Captain Lu isn't in a good mood." Chen Jin quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

Wei Qingsong narrowed his long, narrow eyes, his gaze deep and unfathomable: "Is that so?"

She figured that Lu Jingming's mood must have soured after he saw her.

"Yes, absolutely." Chen Jin answered firmly. He thought for a moment and then tentatively asked, "Um, Sister Wei, didn't you study foreign languages ​​before? Why did you switch to criminal psychology? And..." and went abroad without even saying goodbye.

However, Chen Jin didn't dare to ask, since he had no right to question Wei Qingsong.

They watched helplessly as Lu Jingming went from being a prodigy to a degenerate, and the culprit was Wei Qingsong. Many of the brothers still have some complaints about Wei Qingsong.

It's no exaggeration to say that she almost ruined Lu Jingming.

He was very curious about what could have made Wei Qingsong abandon her boyfriend of many years without a word, leave without saying goodbye, and disappear without a trace.

He was even more curious: if they had abandoned everything and left, why did they suddenly come back?
He didn't believe that Wei Qingsong becoming the city bureau's psychological consultant was just a coincidence.

"What, you doubt my professionalism?" Wei Qingsong changed the subject.

She could certainly understand Chen Jin's unspoken meaning and knew what he really wanted to ask.

"How could that be? You're a psychological expert personally invited by Director Wang." Chen Jin chuckled awkwardly, scratching his head slightly. "Then let me give you a brief overview of the situation... the deceased was a woman..."

Wei Qingsong quickly continued, "The deceased was a woman, aged 25 to 30. At the time of her death, she was wearing a red tight-fitting dress, black high heels, and a Burberry bracelet. She was slender. The time of death was approximately the night of August 19th. Her body was found under the Tianmen Bridge on August 21st. No one has come forward to report the case."

“That’s right, it’s been two days since the body was found, and we still haven’t been able to identify the victim.” Chen Jin looked worried as he spoke about it.

He hasn't come home from get off work on time for quite some time now, and his wife is suspicious every day, thinking he's having an affair.

Although he is a few years younger than Lu Jingming, he has already married young and has a two-year-old child.

Speaking of which, he and his wife met about six years ago. In the blink of an eye, he has started a family and established a career, but Lu Jingming seems to have never been able to get over that relationship.

Recently, a policewoman from the neighboring branch has been pursuing him relentlessly, bringing him soup and meals frequently, and practically acting as his girlfriend.

As for Lu Jingming, perhaps he was unaware of the situation, or perhaps he was going with the flow and planning to start a new relationship, he never came forward to clarify. As time went on, everyone assumed that the two of them would get together.

Unexpectedly, Wei Qingsong returned at this moment.

Why did he feel that a bloody storm was about to break out? One was his old flame, and the other was his new love, whose relationship was still far from over. What would Lu Jingming choose?
Wei Qingsong ignored the dazed Chen Jin, crossed her arms, squinted and looked around, her gaze locking onto a camera: "Is this a blind spot for surveillance?"

Chen Jin snapped out of his daze and nodded hastily, saying, "Yes, since the new overpass was built, several major traffic arteries have been opened, saving much more time than taking the Tianmen Bridge. The Tianmen Bridge is now almost abandoned; the surveillance footage is incomplete, and there is little traffic and pedestrian flow. Residents in the surrounding area do take walks here in the evenings, and we have interviewed them, but unfortunately, no one knows when this body was abandoned here."

Wei Qingsong was not surprised: "Since it's a case of disposing of a body, of course they wouldn't do it so openly."

"Who discovered the body?" she asked again.

"An old scavenger came to the bridge to collect recyclables as usual, and unexpectedly found a large suitcase. But when he opened it, he found a corpse inside." Chen Jin couldn't help but feel sorry for the old scavenger when he recalled the scene. "Luckily, the old man was still in good health and didn't get too scared," Chen Jin added with a look of relief.

Wei Qingsong thought for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Have you checked the suitcase?"

“I’ve checked.” Chen Jin nodded. “It’s a popular item on Taobao. There are tons of similar items when you search for it. If you’re looking for something from a suitcase, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack.”

After saying that, he shook his head and sighed, "This case is completely baffling, there's not a single clue, and yet the higher-ups are pressing us hard."

"Not a single clue? Not necessarily." Wei Qingsong smiled and paced back and forth, making her own analysis. "The murderer is male, and his profession is most likely a doctor, forensic doctor, or mortician. He has a very good understanding of human anatomy, is well-educated, owns a car, and is financially well-off."

Chen Jin was dumbfounded, completely unaware of how Wei Qingsong had come to these conclusions.

Wei Qingsong didn't take it seriously and continued, "The deceased should also be a medical worker, not a local, lived alone, was rather withdrawn, had a small social circle, and may have had some romantic troubles recently. This is the direction of our investigation."

"Sister Wei... how did you figure all this out?" Chen Jin stared at her, dumbfounded.

Wei Qingsong smiled confidently, her gaze inadvertently glancing at Lu Jingming, who still had his back to her.

She knew he was listening.

She raised her voice: "It's very simple. The human body has high bone density and extremely resilient muscles. If you don't have a thorough understanding of human anatomy, it's difficult to cut off the head of a deceased person so cleanly and neatly."

"Whether it's dismembering or disposing of a body, it requires a great deal of physical strength. The body disposal site is near the suburbs and far from the city. It's not easy to complete this series of actions. Therefore, I judged that the person was male and his profession was related to medicine."

"As for having a car, it's even simpler. The body was dumped two days after the victim's death. Whether the murderer was using other means of transportation or pushing a suitcase towards the abandoned Tianmen Bridge, it would attract attention. So he must have his own means of transportation."

"The deceased was dressed fashionably, but her hands were very clean and she didn't have long nails, which suggests that she worked in a profession where long nails are not allowed, such as a medical worker or a chef. I'm more inclined to believe the former. The fact that no one reported her missing for four or five days indicates that she didn't often contact her friends, had a small social circle, and didn't live with her family."

Wei Qingsong's analysis was logical and well-reasoned, and many police officers gathered around, listening attentively to her.

Xiao Song was the first to lead the applause: "Great job! No wonder you're an expert who once helped the FBI solve cases. You've made the case clear in an instant."

"These are all just your inferences, without any supporting evidence. If they interfere with the investigation, can you take responsibility for what you say?"

Lu Jingming's voice was cold, even colder than the continuous autumn rain. His handsome eyes looked at her casually, as if with a hint of disdain.

Wei Qingsong was taken aback.

Chen Jin was also stunned, and quickly whispered a reminder: "Director Wang said that Sister Wei was specially hired by him, and we have to cooperate with her."

"Relying on those specious nonsense?" Lu Jingming scoffed, his cold eyes looking elsewhere as he said indifferently, "Solving cases is not child's play. I don't know what Director Wang is thinking, but don't interfere with my investigation."
