"Hello, I am Ma Wen's mother, and this is my husband Wang Qing." Mu Tona shook hands with Yu Qian, and looked curiously at this tall criminal policeman with a figure not common in the south, and his muscles tightened the police uniform.

"I'm Yu Qian, who is in charge of Ma Wen's case, so let's hurry up and go to the morgue to confirm the body first." Yu Qian was not verbose, and took Mutona and his wife to the morgue with the staff of the funeral home.

The patrol officer led Yu Qian and his party to the morgue, found the freezer where Ma Wen's body was stored and pulled it out. Mutona looked at her daughter's corpse, tears blurring her eyes. The corpse had been made up by the mortuary, cleverly covering the traces left by the autopsy, and Ma Wen looked unexpectedly quiet and serene at this time, as if she had just slept quietly.

Mutona thought that she had fully accepted the sad news of her daughter's death on the way, but in fact, from the time she received the call to the time she arrived in S City yesterday, she had managed to restrain her emotions very well. She didn't want her current husband to worry too much, but at this moment, when she saw Ma Wen's body, a frenzy of sadness poured up, and tears gushed out uncontrollably. The feeling that blood was thicker than water gnawed at her heart, and her whole body shook like chaff, if it weren't for Wang Qing holding her tightly, I am afraid that she would have sat on the ground at this moment.

"Please mourn," Yu Qian comforted softly

Mutona pulled Wang Qing's arm and tried to balance her body, but a wave of dizziness hit her, and soon she felt that her eyes were black and she could barely breathe.

"Are you sure that the deceased is your daughter Ma Wen?" A criminal police officer took out a document and asked

"Yes." Mutona replied with grief and trembling

"Then please sign the confirmation form." The detective handed the pen and the document to the past.

Muto took the pen and paper tremblingly, and tried three times but still couldn't grasp the pen steadily, Yu Qian said when he saw this

"After confirming, let's go back to the contact room to handle the formalities, it's not a problem to keep the deceased like this."

"Hmm." Mutona nodded slightly, took one last deep look at the body, and walked out with her husband's support. The two criminal policemen thought that Yu Qian would take this opportunity to instill in the family of the deceased the idea of not giving up the investigation, but they didn't expect to say that they would go through the formalities quickly, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as there is no problem with the handover of procedures, Yu Qianai will toss as much as he wants, and the responsibility will not fall on his head.

Yu Qian was the last to wait for Mutona and his wife to walk out of the door, and before the body was pushed into the freezer, he lifted the clothes on the corpse and carefully looked at the details. What made him a little strange was that the incision on the body was so well repaired, so good that it gave him a feeling of healing, unlike the corpses that had been dissected before, the long knife edge on Ma Wen's body was tightly and meticulously spliced, if it were not for the dense black sutures, it would almost be invisible under the cover of the foundation. He has seen too many corpses handled by Lao Wang, and the knife edge is also very beautiful, which is already the top technical level in forensics, and it is also the professional ethics of forensic doctors to stitch the corpses as perfectly as possible. It's the first time he's seen such a good corpse, and this is by no means Lao Wang's handiwork.

Yu Qian dragged the iron bed and signaled the patrol staff not to push the corpse back first, reached into the clothes and carefully touched a few knife edges one by one, the patrol officer looked at Yu Qian with a shocked face, pulling the corpse's clothes with one hand and touching the corpse with the other, not knowing what he was doing.

"I remember the body was dissected last Friday afternoon, right?" Yu Qian touched every knife edge, turned his head and asked the patrol officer next to him.

"Yes, you sent one of these last week." The staff didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd

"Repair the corpse, did it by your mortuary?" Yu Qian asked

"You're kidding, how can we mortuaries have this level, at most we wash our bodies and put on makeup. It was done that day just in time for a foreign black pastor in the Christian church. The staff replied with a smile

"Black pastors? You allow unrelated people to touch the corpses? Yu Qian said curiously

"It's not an unrelated person, it's a temporary worker. The black pastor had received professional mortuary training in Japan and was a licensed professional mortuary. According to the old employee, there was a business relationship with the church because some Christian people had to be moved to the church for funerals after cremation. We learned that the black pastor was a professional mortuary. The pastor has very good skills, and sometimes we will contact him when we meet a family member who has high requirements for the beautification of the body, and he is a temporary worker in our place, but he doesn't clock in here, and he is an external senior technical talent. ”

"It's the first time I've heard of a priest who doubles as an undertaker." Yu Qian looked puzzled

"Well, it is said that after coming to China to preach, it is found that the Chinese pay attention to the integrity of the body, and their pastor is responsible for holding funerals for believers, and in order to better preach, they specially went to Japan to do professional mortuary training to facilitate the believers." The staff explained for Yu Qian

"It's really dedicated...... Yu Qian sighed slightly, "which church is that pastor from?" ”

"I think it was called St. Anthony's Church? You can ask the director, I'm not sure. ”

"Well, let's put the body back." Yu Qian put down Ma Wen's clothes and turned around and walked out.

When Yu Qian arrived at the contact room, the two criminal policemen had already hurried to complete the formalities that should be taken, and Mu Tona was not in the mood to carefully study the content of the document, so she signed mechanically after listening to the two criminal policemen introduce the case. At this time, she was in a trance, like in a dream. When the two criminal policemen saw Yu Qian walk in, they immediately became nervous, for fear that the captain would be mad, Wang Qing's situation was already embarrassing, and the comforting words were reversed back and forth several times and they didn't know what to say, and the room was surprisingly quiet for a while.

"Are all the formalities done?" Yu Qian turned his head and asked the two subordinates

"Uh... The fish team is almost finished, and there is still a list of relics left, and it will not be handed over until the police station is counted in the afternoon. The two replied cautiously

"Well, I would like you to come to the police station to hand over the relics that afternoon, do you have time?" Yu Qian asked Mu Tona

Wang Qing gently pushed his wife, and Mu Tona looked at Yu Qian with teary eyes and nodded silently.

"Well, it's not too early." Yu Qian raised his hand, glanced at his watch, and said to his subordinates: "You two hurry back to the police station and register the relevant procedures." ”

The two of them nodded hurriedly when they heard this, but then Yu Qian's next sentence frightened the two of them almost unable to take a step.

"So, the two of you don't know whether it's convenient or not, if you can, I want to talk about the landlord. I would like to invite you two to lunch, and by the way, I would like to talk to you about some issues in this case. Yu Qian turned around and said to Wang Qing and his wife

Hearing this, Mu Tona and Wang Qing looked at each other, not knowing what Yu Qian meant. The two and Yu Qian met for the first time today, and they couldn't talk about any friendship at all. However, talking about the case is what Mutona is really eager to know now, and Yu Qian introduced himself as the person in charge of the case before, although he doesn't know why his daughter died accidentally and why the person in charge is a criminal policeman, but it is naturally best to ask the person in charge in person.

"How embarrassed to let you break the bank, it just so happens that I also want to ask you about the specific situation, if you don't dislike it, we hope to invite Officer Yu to have a light meal, and thank you for your hard work for my daughter's case." Mutona hurriedly replied

"I don't dare to eat your treat." Yu Qian tugged at the police uniform on his body that he couldn't wear a few times a year and said with a smile, "It's just a meal, these are all details, since you also want to hear the details of the case, I know that a store is not particularly far from here, let's leave now." ”

The two criminal policemen were dumbfounded, knowing that something was wrong, but they didn't know what to do at this time. One asked

"The fish team, aren't you going back with us?"

"My car is parked here, you can go back first, and I will take the family of the deceased to have a meal." Yu Qian lit up the car keys in his hand

The two of them complained in their hearts, I didn't hear that the car happened to be parked in the funeral home, you came in a police car with us in the morning, could your car be a ghost? The relationship was laid out by Yu Qian last night, no wonder he didn't make a move when he went through the formalities this morning. The two of them helplessly thought that even if something went wrong, it would be a headache for Liu Ju, anyway, their work was done, and they didn't bother, don't let Yu Qian drive back to the bureau in a police car.

As soon as Yu Qian got into the car, Yu Qian took off his jacket and tied, put it in the trunk, took out a jacket and put it on, and drove straight to a restaurant a few kilometers away. entered the restaurant Yu Qian reported his name, and the waiter led the three of them directly to the private room on the second floor, and simply asked what the taboos were and went down.

At this time, Wang Qing and his wife realized that Yu Qian not only booked the private room in advance, but also ordered the dishes, presumably the account was also settled. This policeman had made up his mind from the beginning to bring the two of them here, but he was afraid that even if he refused just now, he would find another excuse to drag himself over. Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but be a little scared, and they didn't understand why Yu Qian did this.

"You don't have to be restrained, the reason why I chose to talk to the two of you about the case like this instead of being in the police station is because I don't want to make the atmosphere too serious, and inviting the two of you to this meal is purely my personal behavior, and it doesn't have any special meaning." Yu Qian saw that the two of them were obviously a little nervous, and he was relieved

"Officer Yu, can you tell me the details of my daughter's case now?" Mutona finally calmed down from her grief and asked the questions she was most concerned about

"Judging from the results of the investigation at the scene, it should have been an accident, and the results of the autopsy also support this inference. We received the report last Friday, that day..."Yu Qian sorted out his words and began to slowly narrate the entire case, starting from the last phone call between Ma Wen and Li Yaozhan in the early morning of the 15th, until the body was found on the 22nd, together with the inferences about Ma Wen's living conditions during the period. But nothing was said about the mysterious email and Li Yaozhan's sneaking into the scene afterwards. After Yu Qian finished speaking, the dishes were ready, and Yu Qian deliberately selected some exquisite and light dishes, which were quite the essence of Cantonese cuisine.

"My miserable daughter..."After listening to the whole process, Mutona's tears that she could not stop falling again. Since my divorce from her father, she hasn't contacted me for a long time, and I didn't expect goodbye to be goodbye..."

"It's been almost three years since you divorced Ma Yuan, right? Didn't you contact your daughter during this time? Yu Qian said curiously

"No, Wenwen has always been angry with me because of my divorce from her father, and she is still angry with me after I left S City. I thought after a while she was deflated, and it would be fine. Who knew that she changed her contact information later, and I couldn't contact Ma Yuan. Writing to her school didn't wait for a response. Maybe she's completely disappointed in me as a mother......" Before she finished speaking, tears flowed down her eyes again

"As far as I know, the reason for the breakdown of your marriage is Ma Yuan, right? Why is Ma Wen angry with you? What did Ma Yuan do at that time, can you tell me about it? Maybe we can find some clues about Ma Wen's disappearance for a week after the 15th. Yu Qian tried to guide

Mutona wiped away her tears and spoke slowly

"That's a long, long story......"
