Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms
Chapter 38: Going to the appointment alone, the fog gradually dissipates
The night was as dark as ink, covering the old town of S City. The abandoned factory looked even more desolate in the dimness. Situ Han's figure stretched out in the moonlight, and each step seemed unusually heavy, but his steps were unusually firm. He knew that this trip might mean his life or death, but in order to uncover the truth of the murder case thirty years ago, he had no choice.
At the same time, Xu Youran did not sit still and wait for death. She quickly summoned the elite team of the S City police and drove to the periphery of the abandoned factory to set up surveillance. She knew that it would be difficult for Situ Han to deal with the possible dangers alone, so she had to be fully prepared.
"Captain Li, you are responsible for monitoring all exits outside the factory. If you find any suspicious persons, report them immediately." Xu Youran gave orders to Captain Li, the representative of the S City police. Her eyes revealed unquestionable determination.
Captain Li nodded in agreement, then led a team of men to disperse and set up a dragnet.
Xu Youran personally led another team to conduct a detailed survey of the environment around the factory. She noticed that there were several recent climbing marks on the outer wall of the factory, which clearly showed that someone had entered and exited here not long ago. She squatted down and carefully observed these marks, trying to extract useful information from them.
"Look here, the size and shape of these footprints are very similar to those left by the suspect we were tracking before." Xu Youran pointed to several blurry footprints on the ground and said to the police officer beside him.
The police officers gathered around, took a closer look, and nodded in agreement.
While investigating the scene, Xu Youran did not forget to question the victim's family members. She knew very well that the victim's family members could often provide many clues that were difficult for the police to detect.
She came to the temporary settlement of the victims' families, where a group of anxiously waiting relatives gathered. Some of them were in tears, while others clenched their fists, their eyes full of anger and unwillingness.
Xu Youran walked up to a middle-aged woman, the mother of one of the victims. The woman's eyes were red and swollen, and she had obviously cried many times.
"Hello, Auntie. I am Xu Youran, the police officer in charge of this case. I would like to know something about your son, which is very important for us to solve the case." Xu Youran said gently.
The middle-aged woman looked up at Xu Youran, a glimmer of hope flashing in her eyes. She said in a trembling voice: "Officer, you must catch those murderers! My son... He is so kind, how could he suffer such misfortune..."
Xu Youran listened to the woman's story patiently, nodding from time to time to show her understanding. She noticed that there were several details in the woman's story that caught her attention. She secretly kept them in mind and prepared to investigate further...
On the other side, Situ Han had already entered the abandoned factory. He carefully shuttled between the intricate machines, always alert to the possible dangers around him.
Suddenly, a slight sound broke the silence. Situ Han immediately stopped, held his breath, and listened carefully. He judged that the sound came from a corner not far away, so he quietly approached.
When he came to the corner, he found a figure hiding there. The man had his back to him and was fiddling with something in his hand. Situ Han did not act rashly, but quietly observed the other person's every move.
At this moment, the man seemed to have noticed something and turned around abruptly. Situ Han looked at him and both of them were stunned.
"Is it you?" the man shouted in surprise.
Situ Han also recognized the other party - it turned out to be a suspect who had crossed paths with them before. He was secretly alert in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface.
"Why are you here?" Situ Han asked coldly.
The suspect hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to confess: "I... I was just following orders. Someone asked me to wait for you here, saying that you would come."
"Following orders? Whose orders?" Situ Han asked.
The suspect shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. But at this moment, he suddenly saw something behind Situ Han, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
"Be careful!" he shouted and pounced towards Situ Han.
Situ Han reacted quickly and dodged the suspect's attack by leaning sideways. But at this moment, a loud noise was heard and a corner of the factory suddenly collapsed. It turned out that the suspect had been fiddling with a time bomb!
Situ Han was startled, but he did not panic. He quickly observed the surrounding environment and looked for a way to escape. At the same time, he also noticed the despair and unwillingness in the suspect's eyes.
"You don't actually want to die, right?" Situ Han suddenly asked.
The suspect was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Then tell me everything you know." Situ Han continued, "Only in this way can you have a chance to survive."
At the critical moment of life and death, the suspect finally chose to confess. He told Situ Han everything he knew - including the criminal gang's organizational structure, action plan, and their connection with the murder case thirty years ago.
When Xu Youran led the police to raid the secret base of the criminal gang, she heard the news that Situ Han had successfully subdued the suspect. She breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her partner had once again escaped danger.
As the police investigated further, the criminal gang's organizational structure gradually became clear. It turned out that this gang was not only involved in many recent bizarre cases, but also had a close connection with the murder case 30 years ago. They used their power and financial resources to cover up the truth and evade legal sanctions.
In the interrogation room, the arrested suspects showed fear on their faces and confessed their crimes one by one. One of the key figures was one of the participants in the murder case. His confession made the whole case clearer.
Xu Youran (staring at the suspect with a sharp gaze): "Tell me, who is the real mastermind? Why did he do such a cruel thing thirty years ago?"
The suspect's voice trembled, and he didn't dare to look Xu Youran in the eye. But he knew that he had no way to escape, so he could only confess the truth.
Suspect (whispering): "Yes... yes... it's the old man of the Su family. In order to fight for the family property, he hired us to kill off the entire family of his competitors. Afterwards, he used various means to cover up the truth and made us scapegoats."
This news was like a bombshell, causing a huge uproar in S City. The Su family, once a prosperous family, has now become the target of public criticism. And Xu Youran and Situ Han, because of this amazing discovery, have become more determined to get to the bottom of the matter.
During the interrogation, Xu Youran also discovered a shocking fact. It turned out that the current head of the Su family, Su Wanqing, was actually the orphan of the victim of the family extermination case. She was adopted by the Su family since she was a child, but when she grew up, she gradually discovered the mystery of her life experience. The fire of hatred and revenge in her heart was also completely ignited at this moment.
Su Wanqing (looking at Xu Youran with complicated eyes): "Officer, I know you are investigating this case. I also want to avenge my family. Please let me assist you in uncovering this thirty-year secret."
Xu Youran looked at Su Wanqing with mixed feelings. She understood Su Wanqing's pain and anger, but she also knew that the road to revenge was full of unknowns and dangers.
Xu Youran (serious but firm): "Ms. Su, I understand how you feel. But revenge is not the solution. What we need to do is to punish the criminals according to the law and give justice to the victims. If you are willing, we can work together to make the truth known to the world."
Just when Xu Youran and Situ Han were preparing to catch the criminal gang in one fell swoop, a new case quietly surfaced.
News report (from the TV): "The latest news from our station, a bizarre murder of love occurred in the wealthy Su family of S City last night. The deceased was the second young master of the Su family, who was suspected to have met with misfortune after a dispute with his fiancée. Currently, the police have intervened in the investigation..."
Xu Youran and Situ Han looked at each other, and saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes. This love murder case seemed to have some connection with the previous case.
Situ Han (brows furrowed): "You Ran, it seems our mission is far from over. This murder case may be the work of the mastermind behind it."
Xu Youran (clenching her fists): "No matter who is behind this, we will not let him succeed. This time, we must uncover the truth!"
The two walked out of the police station side by side, looking into the distance with determined eyes. They knew that the road ahead was still long, but they also believed that as long as there was justice in their hearts, nothing could stop them from moving forward.
With the outbreak of the Su family murder, S City fell into panic again. What kind of conspiracy and secrets are hidden behind this case? Can Xu Youran and Situ Han join hands again to uncover this intricate mystery? Everything will be revealed in the next chapter...
