Chapter 28: The Vanishing Corpse (2)

At this moment, Wen Qiao and Ling Ling's mobile phones rang at the same time.

Wen Qiao saw a name that surprised him, Han Songlin.

"Teacher?"

"Xiaowen, what happened? The psychologist I introduced to you last time, Liu Mengwei, is missing? The voice on the other end of the phone was as kind as ever, but it was also faintly worried.

"How did you know about this?" He remembered that he had asked Ling Feng to go to the school just now to inquire about Liu Mengwei's whereabouts, but he shouldn't have asked the dean of the forensic medicine school anyway, right?

"Did you meet the police who went to the school to investigate?"

"Yes, it's a coincidence, yesterday teachers from several of our colleges were invited to visit a life science company, and after the end, they had a meal together, and in the end, Mr. Liu drove me back."

Wen Qiao's heart was shocked, he didn't expect such a thing to happen, according to this, Han Songlin should be the last person they could trace to seeing Liu Mengwei yesterday.

"Did she do anything unusual at the time? Has it been said where she's going next? Although Ling Feng had probably already asked these questions, he still wanted to ask some clues from them.

"Teacher Liu and I are just ordinary colleagues, how can I be embarrassed to ask such a personal question? Besides, it was almost 10 o'clock when we parted last night, and I took it for granted that she must have gone straight home. ”

"Is that so......" Wen Qiao couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"However, if you want to ask if there is anything unusual, I can only say that Mr. Liu did not seem to be very interested during the whole process of visiting and eating. I've heard that she's very popular among students, and she's gentle and kind to everyone, so she probably had something on her mind yesterday, right? It wasn't until she dropped me off on the way back that I seemed to be in a better mood. I've told Officer Ling about all of this, but it doesn't seem to be helpful. ”

Who or something upsets her? Wen Qiao thought of someone.

"Was there a woman in the gang who was with you yesterday who looked like a half-breed?"

The other end of the line was obviously taken aback: "There is indeed a lady who looks a little mixed-race, but she left the table halfway through." ”

"Did she introduce her name?" Wen Qiao felt that he had finally found a grip in the void.

"It seems to be called Qiqi, because her name is more distinctive, so I remember it."

"Did she say anything to Liu Mengwei? Ask the teacher to recall that anything is fine. ”

The old professor on the other end of the phone also felt the nervousness in his words, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I'm sorry, Xiaowen, I really don't remember what the two of them said. But I remembered another thing that was a little unusual, after the banquet, the organizer prepared a souvenir for everyone, but I didn't think Mr. Liu took it, I don't know if he forgot it, or deliberately didn't take it. But when I got into the car, I found that her souvenir seemed to be already in her car. ”

"What kind of souvenir is in what kind of packaging?" Wen Qiao's gaze had already begun to search.

"It's a plain white package with no graphics or text on it, and it's a jar of tea inside."

Next to the shelf where the plaster head is placed, there is such a plain white bag, is this it?

Wen Qiao walked over and picked it up, and the space inside that was originally used to put things was not a tea barrel, but a glass bottle containing some kind of transparent liquid. He carefully unplugged it, his pupils constricted, it was a smell he knew all too well, formalin, it must have been soaked in something before.

Will it be in this place? In this chaotic space where everything that should and shouldn't be is stacked in a chaotic manner, the smell of sulfides, aromatic hydrocarbons, olefins, and other chemicals is dizzying.

There is also a small card at the bottom of the bag, and when I take it out, it is the business card of Zhu Tao's jade studio.

At this time, Ling Ling also put down the phone.

"Ma Xiaochao just sent me a surveillance video of the building opposite, and it seems that there is a discovery."

Ling Ling opened the video file he had just received and looked at it with Wen Qiao.

The first half of the surveillance video barely changed, until 11:23, when a few white pieces seemed to float past the corner of the canal.

Ling Ling exclaimed: "The corpse really flowed out from here, first divide the corpse and then throw the corpse, only in this way can this canal be fitted, I should have thought of it a long time ago!" ”

Then she excitedly grabbed Wen Qiao: "Let's go downstream and have a look!" ”

"No need." Wen Qiao was still surprisingly calm: "We have fallen into a misunderstanding. ”

"A whole corpse was delivered from here in the morning, and there was so much blood on this scene, anyone would think there was a murder here, right?"

Ling Ling's expression froze on his face: "Isn't it?" ”

"When the real is fake, the fake is also true. What you think is a model is actually a real person, and what you think is a real person, why can't it be a model? ”

"Although the video is not very clear, I can barely see that these things are floating on the surface of the water and can float with the flowing water, so it is likely that this is not a real severed limb."

After Wen Qiao finished speaking, he came to the box with the silicone prosthesis, and took out a silicone forearm from it to observe and compare, and at this moment, he smelled the familiar smell again.

No matter how keen Wen Qiao's sense of smell was, it was impossible to easily find something that used to be in a small glass bottle in a room full of things, but now that thing was beside him, he had already caught its smell.

He began to rummage through the box, taking all the forearms and calves out of the box, and finally found a finger at the bottom, the smell coming from this finger, and in the large box of silicone prostheses, only this small part of the finger was real.

This finger is pale and slender, with distinct joints, and looks like a woman's finger. There are also no signs of edema and swelling, and the soaking of formalin solution should not be too long. There was a shallow indentation at the base of the finger, apparently with a ring from before.

"This ...... This is true! Ling Ling was a little incredulous: "You just said that there is no corpse here, how can a real finger appear again!" My mind is almost confused, what the hell happened to this place yesterday! ”

Wen Qiao tightened his brows, he didn't have a clue now, but it was certain that if he could find Liu Mengwei, the extraordinary puzzles that happened in this ordinary studio yesterday would probably be solved.

But where is this woman who has been full of secrets from beginning to end now? Wen Qiao glanced at the mobile phone in the evidence bag again. Is she in a critical situation at the moment? Will it last until the moment they hack the phone? Can you get her out of the way before she gets hurt?

When the fake is true, the truth is also false, and there is no place for inaction.

Maybe it's just a false alarm, maybe it's their professional factors that guide them are always overthinking, in fact, that cunning woman is living well somewhere, and even secretly laughing at them for working in vain, isn't this her style? Wen Qiao thought.

Another rapid ringing interrupted Wen Qiao's thoughts, Ling Ling answered the phone quickly, only to see him listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, but his eyes couldn't help but widen.

"My brother found her car, it's on Zaolin Road!"
