C58 (2/2)

…

Silence fell upon the room. Everyone was thinking about their own problems. Even now, there was no relationship between the case and mine. This case gave me a chaotic feeling, as if I had fallen into a huge whirlpool. No matter how hard I tried, I was unable to escape its shackles.

Liao Mengfann, who had a lot of inspiration for solving cases in the past, also became silent. Her brows knitted tightly, no one knew what she was thinking about. Wei Shijie also brought out the laptop that he had never left behind. Brother Huang also sat on a chair and looked up at the dark sky.

Elder Liang sat alone at the conference table, silently drinking his tea. He pursed his dry lips, breaking the long silence.

”Everyone, don't feel pressured!” Elder Liang told us: ”All cases have flaws, as long as the culprit is a human, it is impossible to not have flaws!”

Liao Mengfann shook her head and asked: ”The key point is that this case is too unorthodox. The number one suspect is injured, and I feel that Zhou Xiaoxiao does not have the ability to kill.”

”That's right!” I said, ”Those two buttocks were cut off by someone using an iron saw. Moreover, the place where the corpse was thrown was tens of miles away, could Zhou Xiaoxiao do it by herself? Or did Zhou Xiaoxiao only play the role of throwing corpses around in this case? ”

I continued, ”Currently, Zhou Xiaoxiao is extremely uncooperative with our investigation. We don't have any direct evidence, so it's impossible to interrogate him forcefully.

I cursed angrily. Elder Liang smiled at me and said, ”Young people, don't be emotional. Have you all forgotten about that mental illness called Second boy? He only provided the location of Zhou Xiaoxiao's corpse, what about the time? What about the surrounding environment? Did he say that? ”

”That's right!” I fiercely slapped my thigh. Elder Liang was right, other than providing the name Zhou Xiaoxiao, he did not say anything else. Could he be hiding something?

I helplessly shook my head. Liao Mengfann's hypnosis can only be used once a month, and Second boy is extremely uncooperative under normal circumstances. What should I do? I explained the difficult situation to everyone, and everyone started to silently ponder.

…

”I have an idea, I don't know if it'll work or not!” Brother Huang who had been silent all this time suddenly said: ”Can we trick him?”

”Tell me your method!” The Elder Liang was interested.

Brother Huang said, ”Didn't he want to eat butt? Can't we make a fake butt for him? For example, make a butt-shaped cake? ”

”I think it's feasible!” Liao Mengfann interrupted, ”I used my hypnotism to coordinate with him, he shouldn't be able to find out that it's fake!”

”Ah?!” I kicked Liao Mengfann's leg and whispered, ”Isn't it only once a month?”

After Liao Mengfann finished listening, she suddenly stomped on the back of my feet. She shook her head and said, ”It's fine, just rest more! And … Don't talk nonsense next time! ”

That depression of mine, what the heck was I spouting? You told me yourself, okay?

That's not right! I suddenly thought, wasn't what I just said a little too straightforward? Yes, it was said that once a month, it was inevitable that Liao Mengfann would not think too much into it!

In this poor region of Shanghe County, it was not easy to make a cake. If you want to make a butt-shaped cake, it's even more difficult. In the end, there was no other way around it. Brother Huang and I ran to the provincial capital.

At that time, the shop assistant in the cake shop looked at Brother Huang and me with a weird gaze, but there was nothing we could do.

After the cake was done, we immediately got up and hurried back to Shanghe County. During this period of time, we had already gone through five car crashes, and two tyres had exploded twice. By the time we reached Shanghe County, it was already past ten in the morning of the second day.

When we opened the cake box, a musty smell instantly wafted out. Smelling the smell, everyone covered their noses, Wei Shijie flapped his nose with all his might and said: ”How are we going to eat this?”

I was a little helpless, this place is too depressed. I circled around the smelly cake and suddenly thought of a very important problem. I clenched my fist and said to everyone: ”I think that Second boy will definitely like this cake!”

”Think about it!” I smiled and said, ”Didn't he like to be left behind? Aren't they all stinky? ”It's just right for that!”

”To think that you could think of such a thing!” Liao Mengfann was amused by me. She helplessly looked at the smelly cake and said: ”However, this is the only way!”
