Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms

Chapter 106: The Terror in the Old House, the Truth Gradually Surfaces

On a dark and windy night, Xu Youran and Situ Han set out on a journey to the old house. The old house was located on the outskirts of S City, surrounded by weeds and desolate. The two held their weapons tightly in their hands. Although they were uneasy, they were more eager to get the truth.

Xu Youran (quietly): "Situ Han, what do you think we can find tonight?"

Situ Han (with a firm look): "No matter what it is, we have to face it. Let's go, time is running out."

As their footsteps echoed in the silent night sky, they arrived at the gate of the old house. The mottled gate seemed to tell of the past glory and today's decline.

Pushing open the heavy door, a damp smell hit them in the face. Xu Youran and Situ Han turned on their flashlights and stepped into the old house carefully. The house was full of dust and cobwebs, making it look particularly eerie.

They first came to the hall and found a shabby table with several envelopes and a yellowed diary on it. Xu Youran quickly picked up the diary and found that it recorded every detail of the murder case thirty years ago, as well as an ancient legend about embroidered shoes.

Xu Youran (surprised): "This... This is the diary from that year! It turns out there is such a story behind the embroidered shoes."

Situ Han (flipping through envelopes): "The handwriting on these envelopes is exactly the same as the anonymous letters. It seems that we are getting closer and closer to the truth."

They continued to explore and came to the backyard of the old house. There was a dry well in the backyard, and some charred fragments were scattered around the well. Xu Youran squatted down and carefully identified these fragments, and found that they matched the clothes worn by the charred corpse on the dance floor of the dance hall.

Xu Youran (frowning): "These fragments... could it be that the clothes of the charred corpse were burned here?"

Situ Han (nods, thinking): "It's very likely. The murderer brought the clothes here to dispose of them in order to cover up the clues."

Just as they were about to leave the old house, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night. A panicked man ran over, and it was Li Mo who was suspected before.

Li Mo (panting): "You...why are you here?"

Xu Youran (alert): "Mr. Li, it looks like we have a lot of questions for you."

After a fierce confrontation, Li Mo finally confessed his crime. It turned out that he was one of the survivors of the family extermination case. In order to avenge, he carefully planned a series of serial mysteries in an attempt to lead out the real mastermind.

Li Mo (tears streaming down his face): "I know my crime is unforgivable, but I have to do this. Only by revealing the truth can I be worthy of those innocent souls."

Through Li Mo's confession, Xu Youran and Situ Han locked on the real mastermind behind the incident - a mysterious figure hiding in the dark. This person is not only inextricably linked to the murder case thirty years ago, but also has close ties with the current political and business circles.

In order to bring this man to justice, Xu Youran and Situ Han decided to conduct a more in-depth investigation. They gradually approached the core of the truth by tracking the suspect's capital flow and communication records.

During the investigation, the relationship between Xu Youran and Situ Han became deeper. They experienced the test of life and death together, and their trust and dependence on each other reached an unprecedented level.

Xu Youran (looking at Situ Han tenderly): "Thank you for always being by my side."

Situ Han (smiles): "We are partners, and we rely on each other."

As the investigation deepened, Xu Youran and Situ Han discovered that this serial mystery was much more complicated than they had imagined. Every clue was like a carefully laid trap, waiting for them to fall into it. But they did not back down, but relied on their delicate minds and meticulous logic to uncover the truth behind it step by step.

Xu Youran (pondering): "These cases may seem independent, but they are actually linked together. Each one is like a piece of a puzzle. Only by piecing them all together can we see the whole truth."

Situ Han (nods): "Moreover, there are some deep motives behind these cases. We must not only find the murderer, but also find the power behind him."

Just when they were about to uncover the truth, an unexpected news came - a charred corpse appeared on the dance floor of the nightclub again, and this time the identity of the deceased was more special and more closely related to the previous case.

Situ Han (frown): "This... this is impossible! We are clearly close to the truth."

Xu Youran (clenching his fists): "No! This is definitely not a coincidence. It seems that the mastermind behind this does not intend to let us succeed easily. This charred corpse is a new challenge given to us by the other party."

Situ Han (with a sharp gaze): "Challenge? Come on. You Ran, let's go back to the dance hall. This time, we must not only find the murderer, but also uncover all the secrets behind him."

The two quickly returned to S City. The night dance hall was still brightly lit, but there was an ominous atmosphere in the air. They went straight to the dance floor, which had been blocked by the police and surrounded by people and media.

S City Police Representative (anxious): "Commander Situ, Miss Xu, you are finally here. The identity of the deceased this time is very important, he is an important figure in the military."

Xu Youran (calmly analyzing): "Important military figures? The forces behind this are probably even more powerful. We have to be careful."

They walked through the crowd and entered the crime scene. The charred corpse was shocking, but Xu Youran and Situ Han's eyes were extremely firm. They knew that this was the key moment to uncover everything.

Situ Han (whispering to Xu Youran): "Youran, look at the posture and position of this charred corpse. Is it different from the previous case?"

Xu Youran (nodding after careful observation): "Indeed, this time the murderer seems to have left more clues on purpose. Look at these burnt pieces of clothing, they seem to be arranged in some kind of pattern."

The two squatted down and carefully studied the arrangement of the clothing fragments. After some effort, they were surprised to find that these fragments actually formed an arrow pointing to the top floor of the dance hall.

Xu Youran (excited): "Top floor! The murderer is giving us directions!"

Situ Han (quickly stood up): "Let's go to the top floor and take a look. This time, we must catch him!"

They went straight to the top floor along the stairs, and every step was full of tension and expectation. When they pushed open the door of the top floor, a shocking scene appeared in front of them-a familiar figure was standing in front of the window, with his back to them, holding a gun in his hand.

Xu Youran (shocked): “Yes…it’s him!”

Situ Han (calmly raising his gun): "Don't move! You can't escape!"

The man slowly turned around, revealing a gloomy face. He was the mastermind they had been tracking. He sneered, seemingly not afraid of the gun in front of him.

The mastermind (sneer): "Situ Han, Xu Youran, you are here as expected. But do you think you can catch me like this? You are too naive!"

Just as the two sides were confronting each other, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. An unexpected figure rushed into the room. It was the vicious female supporting role Su Wanqing.

Su Wanqing (panting): "Situ Han, you can't kill him! He is..."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. But it was too late, Situ Han's gunshot had already sounded, and the mastermind fell to the ground.

Su Wanqing (crying in despair): "No! How could you do this!"

*Xu Youran (holding Su Wanqing): "Wanqing, why are you here? What do you know?"

Su Wanqing was trembling, her eyes were full of tears, but she kept her lips tightly shut, unwilling to say more. This scene laid a deep foreshadowing for the following story.

Just when everything seemed to be settled, there was a loud noise outside the dance hall. A car exploded, and flames shot up into the sky. And just before the explosion, a figure hurriedly jumped into another car and disappeared into the night.

Situ Han (brows furrowed): "Who... is that person?"
