Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms
Chapter 25: Undercurrents surge, the dismemberment case begins
The first ray of sunshine in the morning should have brought hope, but it cast an ominous shadow on a barren land outside S City. The scene of the dismemberment case shocked everyone who arrived at the scene like a nightmare. Xu Youran and Situ Han, as the most famous detective team in S City, were urgently summoned here, and their faces were full of solemnity and determination.
"This is not just a simple dismemberment case. The murderer's method is extremely cruel and professional." Xu Youran squatted down and carefully examined the human tissue fragments scattered on the ground. Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle and she did not miss any details.
"Judging from the neatness of the cut, a surgical scalpel or a similar tool must have been used." Situ Han added as he used his camera to record the entire scene while analyzing the possible method of committing the crime.
The two of them worked together in a tacit understanding. Xu Youran was responsible for finding direct physical evidence, while Situ Han focused on collecting environmental clues. Soon, they found a lost mobile phone in a hidden bush. The screen was broken, but the information in the memory might be the key to solving the case.
At the same time, the S City police were also busy investigating missing persons. When the victim Xiaoli's identity was confirmed, Xu Youran and Situ Han immediately went to her home to meet with her family.
Xiaoli's mother, Aunt Li, a seemingly weak but remarkably strong woman, almost collapsed after learning about her daughter's misfortune. She held Xu Youran's hand tightly, tears welling up in her eyes: "Please find the murderer and seek justice for my daughter!"
Through questioning Aunt Li, Xu Youran learned that Xiaoli had a gentle personality and never fought with others. It was hard to imagine who would do such a cruel thing to her. However, it is precisely behind this seemingly ordinary life that perhaps there are unknown secrets hidden.
Based on the information in the phone, Xu Youran and Situ Han identified several suspicious people who had contact with Xiaoli. They checked one by one, from social media records to call records, leaving no possible clues.
Among them, a man named Zhang Wei, who claimed to be Xiaoli's friend, caught their attention. Zhang Wei had contacted Xiaoli many times before the incident, and his professional background - a doctor in a private clinic - enabled him to commit such a crime.
However, when Xu Youran and Situ Han found Zhang Wei, he acted very calmly, even looking a little innocent. "Xiao Li and I are just ordinary friends. There is no grudge between us." Zhang Wei's eyes flashed with a little panic, but he quickly covered it up...
As the investigation deepened, the police force of City S gradually joined in. Police representative Captain Zhang, who had extensive experience in handling cases, formed a temporary task force with Xu Youran and Situ Han to jointly advance the investigation of the case.
At a meeting, Captain Zhang put forward a bold hypothesis: "This dismemberment case may not be an isolated incident, but may be related to a number of recent disappearances. We need to expand the scope of the investigation and look for commonalities among them."
Xu Youran and Situ Han nodded in agreement. They realized that this case was far more complicated and difficult than they had initially imagined. They began to re-examine all the known information, trying to find new breakthroughs.
After a series of investigations and reasoning, Zhang Wei's suspicion gradually increased. In order to obtain more evidence, Xu Youran decided to conduct a psychological warfare with him personally.
In the interrogation room, Xu Youran smiled, but her eyes were as sharp as a knife. "Mr. Zhang Wei, I believe you are innocent, but I also believe that the truth will come out one day." Her tone was calm and firm, making it impossible for Zhang Wei to ignore her presence.
Zhang Wei tried to stay calm, but the sweat on his forehead betrayed his inner nervousness. "I...I really don't know what you are talking about." His voice trembled slightly.
Xu Youran didn't press the issue, but started to tell her about Xiaoli's life, the little things that only people who really cared about her would know. Zhang Wei's expression gradually changed, from indifference at first to emotion later, and finally he broke down and cried.
"I...I didn't mean it...I just...just wanted her to stay with me forever..." Zhang Wei's confession surprised everyone. It turned out that he committed such an unforgivable crime because of his distorted love for Xiaoli.
As Zhang Wei was arrested, the truth of the dismemberment case gradually surfaced. It turned out that Zhang Wei and Xiaoli had a short relationship, but they did not get together due to various reasons. Zhang Wei could not accept this fact, and gradually developed a strong possessiveness and revenge in his heart. He took advantage of his professional convenience and carefully planned this dismemberment case, attempting to possess Xiaoli's soul forever by destroying her body.
However, justice will eventually triumph over evil. Thanks to the unremitting efforts of Xu Youran and Situ Han, Zhang Wei was finally brought to justice, and Xiao Li's wronged soul finally rested in peace.
When the case was settled and the night fell over S City again, Xu Youran and Situ Han were not in a hurry to leave the police station. In their hearts, they always felt that there were deeper secrets behind this dismemberment case. Just as the two were thinking, a quick phone ring broke the tranquility of the night.
"You Ran, it's me, Captain Zhang." The voice of Captain Zhang, a representative of the S City police, came from the other end of the line. It sounded serious and urgent. "We just received an anonymous report saying that strange incidents have occurred frequently in a well-established song and dance troupe in the city recently. It may be related to the previous disappearance case."
Xu Youran and Situ Han looked at each other with disbelief and excitement in their eyes. They knew that this might be the clue to the next case they had been looking for.
"Captain Zhang, please send me the specific address and we will be there right away." Xu Youran responded quickly.
After hanging up the phone, the two immediately packed up their things and drove to the song and dance troupe that was anonymously reported. It was late at night, but the lights of S City were still brilliant, and the upcoming dark night of suspicion seemed to be quietly brewing a more thrilling story.
Easter eggs:
What secrets are hidden under the gorgeous appearance of the song and dance troupe? Are those frequent strange events really inextricably linked to the previous disappearances? How will Xu Youran and Situ Han, a detective partner who have repeatedly solved strange cases, uncover the layers of fog and reveal the truth behind them?
As they investigate further, a story of love, hatred, and power struggles gradually surfaces. Under the stage of the song and dance troupe, the deepest undercurrent of human nature surges; and what secrets and desires do those seemingly glamorous actors carry?
