Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife
Chapter 604 - Protecting Herself Was Equivalent to Protecting Sheng Xiao
“Let’s go to the crime scene,” Tang Yan ordered the team. “Tell me how the corpse was discovered on the way there.”
“Captain Tang, the murder happened in the Ye family’s factory.”
“Which Ye family?” Tang Yan asked with a frown.
“Ye Shengtian, the Ye family.”
Mu Qiqi was startled when she heard the name. Ye Shengtian was Papa Mu’s best friend. She still remembered how he would bring son, Ye Jingcheng, along every time he came to Mu Mansion. Ye Jingcheng liked Mu Tangxue very much at that time.
“How come all the murder cases lately involved rich families?” The team couldn’t help but complain.
“Stop spouting nonsense. Get to work,” Tang Yan said coldly.
Feng Shanshan wondered if he came because he thought solving the case was more important than his life, or to show his suffering to her. Could it be that his body was not very important to him?
Feng Shanshan was irritated but she did not show it on her face.
Despite this, Mu Qiqi’s eyes showed complicated emotions. Feng Shanshan didn’t want to keep focusing on Tang Yan, so she asked Mu Qiqi, “What’s with your face?”
“I don’t know.” Mu Qiqi explained to Feng Shanshan, “This Ye family became successful by starting a business in the fashion industry. They used to be very close with the Mu family. I often met with them when I was young.”
“They should be considered your old acquaintances then. Speaking of the Mu family, did you really dump your younger sister in the slums?” Feng Shanshan suddenly felt like gossiping.
“What else could I have done? It’s not like I can kill her,” said Mu Qiqi.
“All in all, your life is so dramatic. It’s just that after not seeing each other for a year and a half, don’t you want to know your sister’s current condition?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. To her, Mu Tangxue was something very far away. She did not want to think about it again.
But somehow, there were people who insisted on helping her remember.
When they arrived at the Ye family’s factory, the police had already closed off the location where the corpse was found. At that moment, the young master of the Ye family came to Mu Qiqi. “Long time no see, Qiqi.”
Mu Qiqi raised her head and looked at the bright man. “Jingcheng?”
“It’s me. I just came back recently. I didn’t expect you to become a forensic doctor.”
This man was about twenty-five years old. He was very well-dressed. From his outfits, one could tell that he had a good taste. As for his face, he was rather handsome.
He was wearing a black sweater and a beige retro trench coat, making him look gentlemanly and noble.
“I’m just doing it for fun,” Mu Qiqi answered half-heartedly. “We haven’t seen each other for many years.”
“Four years. I’ve left Jianchuan for four years. I only came to know about what happened to the Mu family after coming back. And that Tangxue has gone missing.”
“Young Master Ye, sorry to disturb you, but I need to clarify something from you.” Tang Yan approached them and spoke to Ye Jingcheng.
“No problem. We’ll talk another time, Qiqi. Let’s go for dinner sometime.”
After Ye Jingcheng and Tang Yan left, Feng Shanshan turned her head and looked at Mu Qiqi. “Are you sure about going out for dinner with him?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. “He’s liked Mu Tangxue very much since we were little. He had bullied me many times for Mu Tangxue. He was just being polite just now.”
“The Ye family is weird,” Feng Shanshan said. “Besides, you better not tell your Chief Sheng. Otherwise, I bet he will get jealous. When you said his name, I got goosebumps.”
“You are exaggerating it. Let’s go and check out the corpse.”
The corpse was downstairs in the staff dormitory. Looking at it, the victim probably died from a fall. So, it should not be a very complicated case.
So, the team wrapped up the investigation quickly.
“You should report this kind of case to the local police. Why do you report it to the criminal investigation team?” One of the team members complained again, because the case seemed very simple.
“It doesn’t matter if it is the criminal investigation team or the local police. It’s our negligence for failing to protect the safety of the people.” Having said that, Tang Yan got into his car.
Only Feng Shanshan had noticed his blood on the coat.
When Mu Qiqi was getting into the police car, Ye Jingcheng stopped her. “Qiqi, I really want to know where Tangxue is. If you have any news, please tell me.”
Mu Qiqi smiled but did not say anything.
Since he knew how fierce she fought with the Mu family, he should know that there wasn’t anymore connection between her and Mu Tangxue. And more importantly, he knew Mu Tangxue was in the slums. Why was he asking her then?
Was he implying something?
Feng Shanshan saw Mu Qiqi was in deep thought, so she nudged her. “What are you thinking about? You are so absorbed in your thoughts.”
“I heard from the senior that the Ye family skipped the local police and reported the case to the criminal investigation team.”
“Why? Did you find anything?”
Mu QIqi shook her head. She felt that this matter was targeted at her. But she was not that narcissistic to say it aloud.
Ye Jingcheng had been very close to Mu Tangxue since young. Now that Mu Tangxue was tortured by her, she would not believe that Ye Jingcheng did not know about it.
“What are you thinking about? You are so absorbed in your thoughts.”
“I’m thinking that maybe you should control Officer Tang a bit. Didn’t he just get shot on his shoulder?” Mu Qiqi put aside her suspicion and stopped doubting Ye Jingcheng.
“You think he will listen to me?” Feng Shanshan said helplessly, “There is no one in his heart, only cases.”
Therefore, she had decided not to take care of the man who was so fired up about working now, or she would be just looking for trouble.
Because of this, Feng Shanshan went straight to the forensics laboratory when she arrived at the police station. Although they could almost be sure that the victim had died from a fall, they still needed to justify whether it was a suicide or a homicide.
Tang Yan saw Feng Shanshan going to the autopsy room.
They exchanged glances, but Feng Shanshan’s eyes looked cold. She did not seem to worry about him at all.
As for Mu Qiqi, she got concerned about the matter of the Ye family. She had said it once that she would never let anything threaten her safety. Protecting herself was equivalent to protecting Sheng Xiao.
When Ye Jingcheng asked her in that manner, he was obviously reminding her about the existence of Mu Tangxue in this world!
Was he here to fight for Mu Tangxue?
In the afternoon, Mu Qiqi went to Zhongteng with tons of thoughts.
Seeing the contemplative look on face, the secretary immediately pulled Sheng Xiao’s office door open for her. “Chief, Mistress is…”
Sheng Xiao looked up at Mu Qiqi without waiting for the secretary to finish his sentence. “You can go out.”
