C1 (2/2)

Liao Mengfann patted on my shoulder, signalling to me not to be nervous, and said: ”This is the captain of our Criminal Investigation Team, Liu Lee.”

Liu Lee nodded at me, ”If you have anything to do, go back and rest.” Then, he beckoned to Liao Mengfann with his hand and said, ”Let's go for an emergency meeting.”

Liao Mengfann forced out a smile as she followed Liu Lee out. Seeing that the two of them were getting further and further away from me, I struggled to stand up from my chair and shouted, ”Wait! Take me with you. ”

Liu Lee turned his head, his expression a little anxious and unhappy, as he said: ”This does not conform to the rules. Go back and have a good rest.”

At that time, I felt that I had to join this case. That woman's despairing gaze was still lingering in my mind. If I had to sit still and do nothing, my conscience would have been tormented and condemned for the rest of my life.

Liao Mengfann was a little hesitant, but when we looked at each other in the eyes, she seemed to see the determination in my eyes. She turned her head and said to Liu Lee: ”Captain Liu, he is the son of Chief Lu …”

”Oh?” Liu Lee's eyes flashed with a bright light. After a short moment, he waved his hand at me, signalling for me to follow him.

Arriving at the conference hall on the fourth floor of the Public Security Bureau, I saw that the conference room was already filled with people. His father was among them, with Huang An standing closely behind him. I didn't see Professor Liang, maybe because he was too old and drank too much, so no one disturbed him.

Seeing that I had followed Liu Lee and the other in, he gave me a comforting look. He stood up and signalled for the Director Zheng to take the Chair. I saw Director Zheng nervously wiping the sweat on his forehead. When he saw everyone was curious, he slapped the table and signaled everyone to be quiet. I followed Liu Lee and Liao Mengfann and sat beside Liao Mengfann. During this time, everyone looked at me curiously as they discussed amongst themselves.

Bang!

Just as everyone was discussing, Director Zheng slammed the table and said angrily: ”Shameful, what a shame. If that comrade-in-arms hadn't been calm and informed us as soon as possible, would you all want to read the headlines tomorrow morning? Ah? With someone dead in front of the Public Security Bureau, the person on duty was actually scared senseless. If this news were to be reported, how could we face the citizens of Liaoyuan City? ”You, take off your official's clothes and leave tomorrow!” While they were talking, Director Zheng pointed at the policeman on duty and shouted angrily.

I thought, this Director Zheng is nothing, he's already on fire, and even cleverly flattered our research team. The policeman on duty was trembling violently. When he heard that he was going to be expelled, he cried loudly. Looking at his age, he's also a graduate who just left school. I believe that the terrifying look on that female corpse is enough to scare him to death even if my father is present. I sighed in my heart. It seems that Director Zheng wants to make an example out of this.

Just as the officer on duty was crying bitterly, his father coughed and interrupted Director Zheng, ”Let me put it this way, the nature of this case is terrible, the methods used to commit the crime are extremely cruel. It is normal for that young comrade to be frightened, and that young comrade is the first witness.

Director Zheng looked at his father apologetically, and slightly toned down his tone. ”Tell everyone present what you saw and heard at that time, and try your best to contribute!”

The police officer on duty looked at his father and Director Zheng gratefully as he nervously stood up and recounted the situation.

I heard footsteps outside and looked at the time. It was 3: 05 in the morning.” After recording the time, I put on my coat and prepared to go out. But just as I was about to go out, I heard the glass in the duty room make a sound. Because of the high temperature in the room and the frost on the glass of the duty room, I hurried out with my baton. I went out, and when I looked back, I saw a leatherless woman standing in front of me. That woman seemed to have heard my shout and she slowly walked towards me. I was extremely terrified and kept retreating. She chased me and I sat on the ground. Following that, I fainted. ” After saying that, the police officer on duty started to tremble.

The Director Zheng signalled for him to be helped down, and looked at Liu Lee, and asked: ”Big Liu, what did you discover?”

Liu Lee pinched the tip of his nose and said: ”The wind and snow are too heavy, it is no longer possible to follow the footprints to find the way back to the dead person. Furthermore, the footprints left at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau have already been severely damaged by the police officers on duty when they were escaping, so they are unable to find the general direction in which she came from. I've already talked to the traffic police. The surveillance footage will be arriving soon. ”

”Let me mention something!” Just then, Liao Mengfann suddenly stood up. Director Zheng was clearly angry, but her dad waved her hand for the first time, seemingly very curious.

Liao Mengfann nodded, and said: ”There is one thing that I do not understand, all the victim's skin has been peeled off, but don't you guys feel that the blood left on the doorstep is too little?”
