Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 617
Chapter 617: The Person Who Died Is Not Mu Tangxue
The team arrived at the house that was burned down in just a short time. The corpse was laid on the ground not far away from the house.
“Captain Tang, the fire was too fierce. After the fire was put out, we searched the house and found these.”
The team member passed the items they found to Tang Yan.
There was a student ID and some other items that could prove the identity of the victim.
This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that the student ID showed that the woman was from a medical school and was called Mu Tangxue!
The policemen were taken aback when they saw it. Wasn’t she Mu Qiqi’s sister?
Coincidentally, Feng Shanshan was tearing down the wall of her house and Mu Qiqi was preparing for the state banquet at home. So, it was their senior who went to the crime scene this time.
“Can you confirm her identity?” Tang Yan asked the forensic doctor.
“From the degree of burns, we can be sure that the victim was a female, about eighteen to twenty-two. As for the rest, we can only tell you after further examination.”
“Verify her identity as soon as possible to see if she is Mu Qiqi’s sister,” Tang Yan ordered.
He was not easy to deceive. After all, Ye Jingcheng had just come back and was looking for Mu Tangxue. And now Mu Tangxue was found dead? He wouldn’t believe that there was no story behind this. As for the secret behind it, they could only wait for the results of the investigation.
“To determine if this is Qiqi’s sister, get Qiqi to the laboratory now. We’ll know once I conduct a DNA comparison test,” said the forensic doctor.
Tang Yan nodded and called Mu Qiqi.
“Are you free? Come to the police station for a while. There’s a case related to you. A new one.”
Mu Qiqi froze after listening to Tang Yan’s words. She was anxious. “I’ll go now.”
Mu Qiqi was trying out her dress at the moment. But the moment she received the call from Tang Yan, she did not delay since he told her that she was somehow related to the case.
Mama Sheng sent Mu Qiqi to the police station with her car. When Tang Yan saw her, he said, “A burnt corpse was found in the slums. She might be your sister.”
Mu Qiqi’s heart skipped a beat. Although she did not believe that Mu Tangxue would suffer this misfortune, what if it really was her?
So, she went to the morgue. After all, she was the person who knew Mu Tangxue the best.
Seeing the burnt corpse on the dissection table, Mu Qiqi was suddenly reminded of Su Ziqing. When she died, she was just like this, lying on the bed, with her body all burned.
“Qiqi, to be sure of this, we’ll run a DNA comparison first. You can go and look at the body afterward,” her senior forensic doctor said.
Mu Qiqi looked at the burnt corpse and nodded. “Okay.”
After getting the sample, Mu Qiqi returned to the morgue. But when she got close to the corpse, she could clearly feel that she was not Mu Tangxue. “It’s not her.”
Tang Yan leaned against the door. When he heard her deduction, he asked, “The proof?”
“Although the victim’s age is close to ours, she has given birth before. Besides, even burned, I can still be sure that she is not Mu Tangxue who has soft and tender skin.”
“The joints of the hands are thick, and her knees are severely worn. If you look at her bones carefully, there are many scars on her limbs. The scars were collected over time. This means that the victim had been living in a harsh environment. There are some skin tissues preserved in her fists. Her skin is rough. It doesn’t match with Mu Tangxue’s at all.”
“But she died in the house you prepared for Mu Tangxue in the slums.” Tang Yan pointed out.
“No, she’s not burned to death. We’ve come across a burn-to-death case before. The body was laying straight when it was burned, so it could only mean that she was not breathing anymore when the fire started. And her nostrils and lungs could prove this,” said Mu Qiqi.
“You still don’t get it.” Tang Yan looked at Mu Qiqi seriously. “Someone is setting a trap for you. He’s targeting you. What you need to know now is the motive of that person.”
Captain Tang was suspecting that someone got this corpse and disguised it as Mu Tangxue.
“It’s easy to know if he has murdered a person or stolen a corpse once we investigate. But you should get the answer to what he’s trying to do as soon as possible.”
“I think you can guess the person behind this easily. After all, he’s the only one who wants to get in touch with Mu Tangxue. But I don’t know what he wants to do now.”
Mu Qiqi answered after much contemplation.
“This case happened out of our area. The other team will come and take over soon. Although the informant called us, in principle, we should hand over the case to them. It isn’t a special case.”
“I know, Captain Tang.”
“That’s why I informed you to come over for an autopsy. Just to let you be prepared mentally.”
During their conversation, the policemen who were in charge of the case arrived at the police station. Seeing Mu Qiqi, the team leader smiled. “I heard that she’s your sister.”
“I’ve checked it. It’s not her.”
“Yes or no, our forensic doctor will give me an answer. It’s a case in our area, so we will stop bothering the criminal investigation team. Meanwhile, Mu Qiqi, you should go back with us to assist in the investigation since the house is where your sister lived before. And the items found in the house were all hers.”
“We’ve conducted a DNA comparison test. The result will be out soon.” The senior in the forensic team interrupted them.
“Then, let’s wait for the report.”
After saying that, the other party turned his head and walked away. His tone was arrogant. It was very annoying.
“It seems like the police over there will not give us any face.”
Not long after Tang Yan said that, Mu Tangxue went up the search ranking in the afternoon. Since Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao were famous figures in Jianchuan, her life in the Mu family and her story with Mu Tangxue were known to all the people in the city. So once something happened to Mu Tangxue, the matter began to spread immediately.
“The tragic death of the younger sister is caused by old grudges. Mu Tangxue’s death may be connected to her older sister!”
“It’s heaven on one side and hell on the other. The older twin sister is living happily while the young sister is dead.”
They did not dare to mention Sheng Xiao’s name directly, but things didn’t get any better.
The articles were full of predictions of a conspiracy. They were nothing more than blatant titles and writing to attract the attention of the public just for the sake of publicity.
In just a short afternoon, Mu Qiqi’s matters became the hot topic in the whole of the city.
Even Feng Shanshan who was tearing down the wall of her house received a retweet of the news.
So, she called Mu Qiqi right away. “Your sister is dead?”
“The person who died is not Mu Tangxue.” Mu Qiqi felt helpless. The state banquet was going to begin soon, and she got herself into such an ugly scandal. Maybe…this was his intention?
