NFBE Chapter 311 Dead
Chapter 311 Dead
Seeing the two auxiliary police officers in uniform, the woman realized that the four men in front of her were not bad people, so she asked softly, "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
Worried that others might say something wrong and frighten the woman, Bai Mengfei spoke first, "We're here to find Chu Anguo. Is he here?"
"Chu Anguo?" The woman frowned, looking thoughtful. "We don't have anyone by that name here. Have you come to the wrong place?"
Bai Mengfei thought about it carefully and felt it was unlikely that she had made a mistake. If she had, why would Chu Anguo have filled in this address on the documents?
Of course, there is another possibility: Chu Anguo did not have a fixed address, so he filled in this address randomly.
After a quick analysis, Bai Mengfei knew that practice was the sole criterion for testing truth, so she asked the woman, "Are there any men living here?"
“Yes, there are two other men living here besides me,” the woman replied.
Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei was immediately surprised and found it somewhat unbelievable. However, she didn't immediately press for details or say anything more. The vice-captain, unable to contain himself, asked directly, "What? You live with two men?"
"It's just sharing an apartment!" the woman hurriedly explained.
She then cooperatively led Bai Mengfei and the others into the house to inspect the rooms. They mainly looked at her own room and the two men's rooms.
According to the woman, one of the men was a doctor.
After Bai Mengfei and her group arrived at the doctor's room, they carefully observed and examined him, and found that he was indeed a doctor, and a well-read and cultured person, with nothing suspicious about him.
However, the other man's door was locked tightly.
"It's locked." The vice-captain twisted the doorknob but couldn't open it, and couldn't help but say.
Seeing this, Xiang Yuntian immediately said, "That's normal. After all, one can't be too careful. He's probably trying to prevent his belongings from being stolen."
“But from a professional standpoint, we can’t force an investigation, can we?” the deputy captain asked.
Bai Mengfei nodded slightly, showing a look of agreement, and said, "Indeed, and our method of investigation is not in accordance with the rules." After saying that, she turned around and made as if to leave.
The woman thought Bai Mengfei was really leaving, so she turned around as well. But she didn't notice that at that moment, Bai Mengfei took out a pill from her pocket, crushed it between her fingers, and then sprinkled it in front of the door.
After walking a few steps, Bai Mengfei deliberately stopped and turned around, asking, "What's that smell?"
The woman turned around and saw wisps of smoke rising from the doorway, seemingly emanating from inside the room.
Of course, among those present, only Xiang Yuntian knew the truth besides Bai Mengfei. But Xiang Yuntian certainly wouldn't expose Bai Mengfei, so he pretended not to see it and turned his face away.
"There must be a fire inside. Shall we go in and take a look?" Bai Mengfei said.
The vice-captain was a burly, somewhat reckless man. Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, he didn't hesitate, raised his right leg, and kicked the door with all his might.
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open.
When the door opened, they found themselves in a dirty, messy room. There was only a bed and a table, presumably the room was already furnished. On the table lay many blood-stained photographs.
Upon seeing the photos, Bai Mengfei disregarded the stench permeating the room and went to the table. She gently spread out the photos with her fingers and began to examine them carefully.
The photos showed many dismembered people. Bai Mengfei felt that these corpses looked familiar, so she tried to recall them carefully.
After thinking for a moment, she suddenly realized that these were all victims of the serial murders of teenage girls!
In an instant, she couldn't help but gasp and turn to look at Xiang Yuntian. Actually, Xiang Yuntian had also noticed this, so he turned to look at her as well.
The moment their eyes met, they seemed to discover a shocking secret—this Chu Anguo was very likely the murderer in the serial killings of young girls they had been searching for.
Just as they were still in shock, a deep voice came from the doorway: "Who gave you permission to enter my room?"
Upon hearing the voice, all five people looked over at the same time, and the woman immediately called out, "Mr. Li."
But Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian recognized him at a glance: this so-called Mr. Li was actually Chu Anguo.
Not only them, but even the two auxiliary police officers recognized him, and they all suspected that Chu Anguo was a vicious murderer.
"Chu Anguo, where do you think you're going to escape to?" The deputy captain rushed over, wanting to capture Chu Anguo and make a great contribution.
Chu Anguo wanted to say something, but he was instantly frightened away by the vice-captain's actions. Without thinking, he turned and ran out the door. Bai Mengfei and the other three naturally chased after him, but they were no match for Chu Anguo.
They chased him all the way to the third floor, where they saw Chu Anguo jump directly from the landing platform in the stairwell. Because the safety measures were inadequate, half of the platform was open, and he jumped right there.
By the time Bai Mengfei and the others caught up, Chu Anguo had already jumped down. However, he didn't seem to be seriously injured; he had only sprained his ankle.
The four of them were not reckless, so instead of jumping down like Chu Anguo, they ran downstairs.
When they caught up outside, they saw a body lying across the middle of the road on the sidewalk.
This corpse is very likely Chu Anguo's!
With a sense of surprise, Bai Mengfei slowly walked over.
She found it unbelievable, completely incomprehensible that someone who was perfectly fine just moments ago could be gone in the blink of an eye.
Walking to the body, she confirmed once again that the deceased was Chu Anguo.
At this point, Chu Anguo had already stopped breathing, and his pupils began to become cloudy, leading to a preliminary diagnosis of brain death.
The deputy captain wanted to give him first aid, but Bai Mengfei lowered her head and said, "Don't waste your energy. He's really dead. Blood circulation in his brain has stopped, and all sorts of post-mortem phenomena are starting to appear."
Xiang Yuntian also squatted down to help with the examination, but he discovered a strange phenomenon: Chu Anguo's lips were a bit black, as if he had been poisoned.
Out of curiosity, Xiang Yuntian pried open Chu Anguo's mouth with his hands to examine his oral cavity.
