Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Better Arrangement
Teresa took Qin Ran straight to the police station in Aitlan City. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Of course, it's not about entering the main building.
Rather, it is a small, self-contained three-storey building behind the main building.
On the right side of the gate of the small building, there is a very inconspicuous sign: Supernumerary Forensics Section.
"You don't have much time, only about 10 minutes or so...... Or shorter. ”
The sheriff pushed the door open and walked in.
Qin Ran followed.
Behind the door is a long and narrow hall, the door appears on both sides, except for the window at the end, it is difficult for light to shine in, and the already remote small building suddenly has a sense of gloom.
But neither the female sheriff nor Qin Ran took this gloomy feeling to heart at all.
The two of them strode forward.
Soon came to the negative floor.
"Hey, Teresa, morning!"
A middle-aged man in a white lab coat waved at the female sheriff, and then, without looking at Qin Ran, he said directly: "Is it because of the Winchester House case?" ”
"Is there anything else besides that?"
"Give me 10 minutes."
The female sheriff said very politely.
"This shouldn't be the way people ask for help...... Forget it, I'm more afraid of your 'begging' - 10 minutes, 10 minutes at most. ”
"I'm going to smoke a cigarette."
The middle-aged man shrugged helplessly.
Then, just stand up and walk towards the first floor.
The sheriff walked to the morgue in the back.
The tacit cooperation between the two is obviously not the first time to do this.
Perhaps, seeing the surprise in Qin Ran's eyes, the female sheriff couldn't help but explain: "He encountered a big trouble two years ago, and I helped him, although he couldn't continue to stay in his original position, but he was not swept away, so we had a friendship." ”
"What does it look like to be a 'begger'?"
Qin Ran was very curious about this.
"Break someone's teeth, or break one of their fingers."
The sheriff said calmly.
"It's really an ingenious way to 'ask for someone'."
Qin Ran commented.
He did not suspect that the sheriff was exaggerating, because, according to the temper of the sheriff, it was really too easy to do it to such an extent when it came to certain things.
As for the way it does not conform to the police. Cha's identity?
The undercover career has already made the female police chief different from the average police officer. Cha's way of doing things.
It's like now.
Upon entering the morgue, the sheriff opened the morgue labeled as the Winchester House bombing.
"Because of the explosion and the heavy burning, we still can't tell who they are."
Pulling open the body bag, the sheriff pointed to the five curled up and completely inhuman-looking charred corpses.
Qin Ran naturally didn't have such a distinguishing ability.
Under the violent burning, the five charred corpses were not only unrecognizable, but the system had long since shrunk to the size of a child, but one corpse was very peculiar.
A large hole was cut out of the left chest.
The kind that pierces the front and back.
The burning surface of the wound is natural, and it is not only after death that such a wound is taken out.
"This is the most peculiar of the five, and the worst - the heart was gouged out before he died, and the guy must have hated him to the bone."
The sheriff commented.
"yes."
Qin Ran nodded, but his heart turned rapidly.
"The heart was gouged out?"
This result was beyond Qin Ran's expectations.
According to Qin Ran's speculation, as the 'arbiter', 'he' should leave this decisive evidence.
Unless......
"A better arrangement?"
"A piece of evidence that is more direct than the 'law enforcer' seeing the heart directly...... What will it be? ”
New doubts once again appeared in Qin Ran's heart.
This made Qin Ran stand there and think for a long time.
But on the premise of not having any valuable information, Qin Ran naturally found nothing.
"I shouldn't rush you, but we don't have much time."
The female sheriff reminded Qin Ran.
"Enough!"
"I don't even know who to mourn in such a situation!"
Qin Ran looked at these charred corpses with a wry smile.
However, although he said this, before leaving, Qin Ran still bowed to the deceased.
This is due respect for those who disturb the dead.
As for the apologies to the deceased?
Qin Ran didn't.
Although, according to the description of the mission, he and him as the 'arbiter' are one person.
But Qin Ran doesn't really regard the other party as himself.
Not only because of the awkwardness of treating a person who doesn't exist as his own, but also because Qin Ran knew very well that if he really regarded the other party as himself and was responsible for everything the other party did, then the probability of his exposure would increase linearly.
He is now an 'amnesia' patient.
After saying hello to the forensic doctor, Qin Ran walked out of the police station side by side with the female sheriff.
"Where are you going?"
The sheriff asked.
"Where you came across me - someone suggested I should walk there more, maybe the vanished memories will appear!"
Qin Ran joked, and then, seemingly unintentionally, asked.
"Where's Bosking?"
"I'm going to investigate the university professor!"
"Professor Harold was more complicated than we thought, not only was he a professor of archaeology at Utah State University, but he also organized a society at the school called 'Grivan' - I couldn't find more information about this mysterious society in writing, so I sent Boskine to Utah State University."
The sheriff replied truthfully.
Griven?
Qin Ran muttered in his heart.
He seems to have seen the name in some book.
But I can't remember which one.
One thing is certain, though, that Professor Harold must be associated with the mystery.
Because, Qin Ran can be sure, Greven is not from those medical books.
On the way afterward, Qin Ran consciously led the topic to Professor Harold, until the female sheriff sent him back to the place where he got into the car.
"Please!"
The female sheriff threw a brown paper bag in the back seat to Qin and immediately sped away.
It's two sandwiches and a bag of milk.
Even though it was already cold, it was definitely not overnight.
It should have been bought before I found him.
Holding the brown paper bag containing food, Qin Ran couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the moment the female sheriff first appeared.
"What a dishonest man."
After sighing softly, Qin Ran took out a sandwich and ate it as he walked, continuing his previously interrupted search.
Unlike the quiet early morning hours before, the people on the streets are already busy.
Shops opened, crowds flowed, cars crowded the roads, and the whole city of Aitlan seemed to wake up from a sleep.
Standing on the bustling streets, Qin Ran judged the direction of progress according to the map in his mind.
About half an hour later, when Qin Ran's gaze swept over a certain building, he stopped abruptly.
