225 A New Case

Zou Sheng had already started checking the nearby surveillance footage and looking for the man in the blue shirt in the video.

Shen Yin stared at the screen and frowned as she looked at Shen Luo in the interrogation room.

Seeing that the little girl sitting opposite him was obviously frightened, Wu Zheng could not help but soften his tone again, guiding her to recall the scene she saw at that time. “Think about it carefully. Other than wearing a blue shirt, did that person have any other characteristics?”

“He was very tall.” Shen Luo blinked her teary eyes innocently. Her fingers subconsciously curled up as she said weakly, “I only saw him turn out of the back alley. I really don’t know anything else.”

This bit of information was obviously not enough.

Wu Zheng and Meng Heng looked at each other helplessly. Just as they were about to end the interrogation, the door of the interrogation room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Zou Sheng rushed in frantically. He panted and said, “Boss, another corpse has appeared at Chengxi Teacher’s College.”

The cold wind blew in through the open door. Shen Luo could not help but shiver. Her fingers on the table trembled for a moment before she quickly calmed down.

Wu Zheng and Meng Heng rushed out of the interrogation room and asked the other police officers to send Shen Luo home. Wu Zheng led Zou Sheng and Shen Yin to Team Three’s SUV and rushed to the crime scene as quickly as possible.

In just a few days, four corpses had appeared in a row, but the clues they had were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Wu Zheng was anxious. The moment he got out of the car, he rushed into the police cordon. The moment he saw the corpse, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. He was stunned for a long time before he recovered his wits.

After experiencing the previous three crimes, the murderer had clearly mastered some techniques. This time, the corpse did not look mutilated. The girl was lying quietly on the ground as if she was asleep. However, when Shen Yin lifted her skirt, she was caught off guard when she saw that a bottle of beer had been stuffed into her lower body.

Blood mixed with turbid liquid flowed all over the ground and mixed with the dew on the grass. The soft green grass and leaves glinted with the bright red blood. The perfect combination of birth and death made everyone present subconsciously hold their breaths.

According to the testimony of the person who reported the case, she had wanted to skip class at the last minute. That was why she had taken this remote path in the school without any cameras to avoid bumping into the teacher. She did not expect to encounter a corpse here.

Coincidentally, the person who reported the case and the deceased were roommates in the same dormitory. According to her, the deceased, Zhao Lu, left school alone yesterday and had not returned. Her classmates in the dormitory had even called Zhao Lu at 8 pm. Zhao Lu said that she would be back in school soon, so they were not worried.

But when they reached the dormitory, Zhao Lu still had not returned. They could not get through to her even though they called again, but they did not dare to tell the counselor about it, afraid that the counselor would find out that a classmate had been away at night.

It was not until her body was found here that they realized that Zhao Lu had been killed.

“Do you know where she went yesterday?” Meng Heng asked the person who reported the case and her roommates about the details of the last time they saw Zhao Lu.

The female classmates were frightened. They looked at each other, but no one dared to tell the truth.

The young lady who reported the case was more courageous. She lowered her voice and whispered to Meng Heng, “She went to meet a friend she made online!”

“An online friend?” Meng Heng frowned and continued to ask.

This time, the young lady who reported the case shook her head and said, “I don’t know either. That’s all Zhao Lu told us. She did not say anything else and did not show us any photos. At that time, we even advised her not to be deceived. We didn’t expect something to really happen.”

After saying that, she mysteriously went to Meng Heng’s side and asked softly, “Officer, could that online friend be the culprit?”

“We still need to investigate the reason behind her death.” Meng Heng put away his notebook and looked at the girls expressionlessly. Although they were afraid, they did not look sad. He instructed coldly, “If you remember any clues, you can contact us at any time.”

“Okay, okay. We’ll definitely cooperate with the police.”

The girls nodded obediently and left the crime scene together.

Actually, they could not be blamed for being afraid. They were just young girls who had just entered university. They had never seen a corpse before. Moreover, it was the first time they had seen the corpse of their roommate. It was already very impressive that they had not broken down.

Meng Heng let them leave and walked back to the cordon alone. He briefly explained what he had just learned to Wu Zheng.

Shen Yin listened as she squatted down. After collecting blood and semen samples, she began the preliminary autopsy of the deceased.

The cause of death was also mechanical asphyxiation. The stockings tightly wrapped around the neck were no different from the ones on the three victims before.

“The time of death was between 9 and 10 pm last night.” Shen Yin checked the ligature marks on the victim’s neck. In order not to miss any details, she lifted the victim’s eyelids to check.
