Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 554

Chapter 554: Bound Duty

Since the paparazzo was arrested, Hu Ran’s stepmother could no longer proceed with her plan. And of course, she could not work together with Gu Ziling anymore.

But Gu Ziling was still waiting at home, oblivious to everything. She waited and waited but Hu Ran just would not go out. Why was Hu Ran still at home when the representative of Tiffany & Co. was about to arrive? Gu Ziling could not hold it any longer, so she called Hu Ran’s stepmother. However, nobody answered her call.

“Bastard! Liar!”

She had promised to help to teach Hu Ran a lesson. But what happened? She was still sitting in here drinking tea. Nothing happened.

How could Gu Ziling have known that Mrs. Hu was in fear now?

To ensure the paparazzo did not say the wrong thing, she even drove to the police station herself. Her car was spotted by those at the police station. Since it was a very luxurious car, they got Mu Qiqi to identify the owner.

Mu Qiqi was very surprised when she saw the car. She had met with Mrs. Hu when she visited Hu Mansion with Sheng Xiao previously. Therefore, she could recognize her right away. The only thing was that she did not know why she was here.

“You know her?”

“She is the stepmother of an acquaintance. She was an actress before. But since she married into a rich family, she went on hiatus,” explained Mu Qiqi to the team leader. “But I don’t think it is a coincidence that she’s here. Perhaps it’s because of the paparazzo.”

The team leader laughed. “How many secrets are hidden in the scumbag’s mouth that people are so scared he might let slip?”

Mu Qiqi understood what he meant, so she made a call to Sheng Bowen.

“Third Brother.”

“Xiao Qi? Is there something urgent that you’re calling me for at this time?” Sheng Bowen was having a meal with the eldest young master of the Tiffany family.

“I saw Mrs. Hu at the police station today. You know, because of Shen Qing’s case, the police have arrested a paparazzo. I reckon she must be here for him. Since it has something to do with Third Sister-in-law, I thought I should just tell you, so that Third Sister-in-law can keep an eye on Mrs. Hu. I’m worried that she might have a secret that might bring harm to the Hu family.”

After listening to Mu Qiqi’s words, Sheng Bowen was excited. “Is his surname Cui?”

“Yes.”

“Qiqi, I will let Xiao Ran call you. You can talk about it with her in detail. Please help her.”

Although Mu Qiqi did not know what it was, she promised him anyway. “Alright.”

A few minutes later, Hu Ran called. “Qiqi, I heard from Third Brother that the police have arrested that paparazzo. You might not know about it, but we have been looking for him for a long time.”

“Tell me slowly.”

“You know I got into a car accident two years ago, right? The culprit was hired by my stepmother. And the only person who knows about this is that paparazzo,” Hu Ran explained briefly. “Qiqi, can you help me?”

“No wonder your stepmother is here.” Mu Qiqi suddenly understood what Mrs. Hu was worrying about now.

“Third Sister-in-law, we are investigating Shen Qing’s case now. And it is very difficult to pry open the mouth of that paparazzo. I will inform your matter to the team leader first and see if they can help. I will try my best to help you. But since it is another case, we can only follow the procedures. I hope you understand.”

“Yes, I understand. Thank you anyway.”

Hu Ran was very excited. But she understood the difficulties of Mu Qiqi, since her case was not related to Shen Qing’s.

Mu Qiqi hung up and looked at the black sports car outside. Then, she turned to the team leader and informed him of the car owner’s identity. “She is the second wife of Mr. Hu, a businessman in the real estate industry. She was once a celebrity. I have just found out from a phone call that she came here because of an incident two years ago. She hired an assassin and nearly killed her stepdaughter in a car accident. And Mr. Cui happens to know about that. She must be scared that he might reveal information about that.”

“Once the paparazzo confesses, I will handle this case together,” said the team leader.

“Thank you, Leader.”

“It’s our bound duty to get rid of the bad people for the citizens.”

Soon after, Mu Qiqi returned to the forensics laboratory. The professor had already dissected Shen Qing’s body. “Her organs are all ruptured. No wonder she vomited so much blood. I have found the cause of her death. She must have been severely beaten before her death. The bruise on her skin is not obvious and the bleeding under her skin is messy. Although I can roughly see a tramline bruise, there is only one. I can’t be sure if it is caused by a cylindrical wooden stick because the wound seems light on the outside but heavy on the inside. The murderer is very skillful in using his strength.”

“That must mean that this person knows a certain degree of self-defense skills or practiced some sort of sport like kickboxing or wushu, right?” Mu Qiqi guessed.

“This might be possible.”

“So we still cannot identify the second man, the paparazzo is so dishonest, and we cannot find any more clues in Shen Qing’s villa. This case seems to be quite tricky.”

Feng Shanshan couldn’t help but sigh. “I really wonder what kind of torture she suffered before she died.”

…

On the other hand, Hu Ran told her father about her stepmother going to the police station. And again, she mentioned the car accident two years ago.

When Papa Hu saw the picture, he got even more suspicious of his wife. “Xiao Ran, I know. I will be more careful.”

“Father, I haven’t been able to find evidence, but God is helping me this time. I only hope that what I do will not bring harm to you.”

“If she really treated my daughter like that two years ago, I won’t tolerate her!” Papa Hu emphasized firmly.

Right then, his wife opened the door and entered the living room, looking rather tired.

“Where have you been? I haven’t seen you all day,” Papa Hu asked purposely.

“I went out for tea with a friend.”

Mrs. Hu did not know that Mu Qiqi was an observant person. She probably didn’t think that she would be discovered by Mu Qiqi.

Papa Hu did not mention anything else. He merely said, “Rest early. Don’t tire yourself out.”

“Lao Hu, it has been so long. Why can’t I get pregnant?”

That’s because Papa Hu had already undergone a vasectomy in the hospital. Although he wanted a son, he would never let this woman carry his baby.

“We’re not young anymore. It wouldn’t be easy for us to get a child. Perhaps it’s not the time yet,” explained Papa Hu.

“I just hope that I can bear you a son as soon as possible.”

Papa Hu turned around and shuddered. He was thinking of the horrors that could potentially befall the Hu family should he really have a son with this woman.

He was now just waiting for results from Mu Qiqi. If she found any evidence, he would not tolerate this woman anymore. She was a vicious woman that was as deadly as a wasp’s sting.

It really made people sleepless with such a woman by their side. You wouldn’t be able to do anything when she suddenly ambushed you.
