My Lovely Wife is a Forensic Doctor - Chapter 356
Chapter 356 Stalker
To say that the man was sneaky was not an exaggeration, because on such a hot day, not only was he wearing a very wide windbreaker, but he was also wearing a mask and a hat, the brim of which was pressed down so low that his face couldn’t be seen, but from the direction in which he was standing, he was looking her way, which instantly aroused her alarm, and she instantly twisted her head and looked back, and she saw that the man instantly scurried into the alleyway on one side.
Mu Yu was instantly filled with suspicion.
This guy was following her?
When she first arrived in Huacheng, no one knew her, she hadn’t offended anyone, and she was so low-profile, there shouldn’t be anyone following her, right?
Frowning in thought, she made sure the other woman wasn’t stalking her, because no one unless they were a fool would dress so strikingly to stalk someone.
Since it’s not stalking her, it’s ……
Her whole body suddenly tightened: stalker?
She instantly brainstormed a lot of disgusting images of stalkers molesting as well as screwing and killing women, and shuddered, subconsciously speeding up her steps into the mall – the mall was crowded, and there were surveillance cameras all over the place, so the other party would surely not dare to do anything.
Almost with a jog, she ran to a security guard at the mall in a single breath, which gave her a few moments of security.
“Miss, do you need something?” The guard was startled by her appearance and asked her in surprise.
“Brother Security, outside ……,” she suddenly paused.
She hadn’t been sure that the man outside must be the lewd stalker, and even if he was, he must be hiding at this moment, and she would certainly not be able to find him even if she took the security guard out, not to mention that this was only a mall security guard, whose duty was to maintain the order and security of the mall, and who might not be able to go out with her to look for the lewd stalker, and so she had suddenly become unaware of the need to tell the security guard.
“What’s going on out there?” The guard looked out in confusion.
“Uh, I can’t find the bathroom outside, may I ask big brother security where the mall bathroom is?” Mu said with a sarcastic smile instead.
“Oh, over there,” the guard pointed smoothly, “isn’t there a sign on that?”
“Oh, sorry, I didn’t see that. Thanks.”
Mu bared her teeth, then headed toward the restroom, searching for what she should do as she walked.
Initially she had thought of just self-preservation, but now she had temporarily changed her mind.
If the other party is really a shameless stalker who is presuming to victimize her fellow women, she, as a part of the public security system, still chooses to retreat in self-preservation, which is totally appeasement of the criminals!
She must not do that!
She clutched her cell phone as she fought her way through the cramped bathroom.
She can’t call the police until she’s sure of the facts.
Thinking that Cheng Xiang and Liu Xiaofan were both busy with their own business, she hesitated for a moment and then went out of the bathroom. Standing in front of the washbasin, she straightened her hair in front of the mirror, unbuttoned her shirt one more time-she was wearing a shirt and jeans with small white shoes today-and pulled it to one side, deliberately revealing her delicate collarbone, then held a small mirror in the palm of her hand before heading out, directly out of the mall.
After leaving the mall, she didn’t go in the direction of the hotel, but pretended to be shopping along the previous road and slowly walked forward, while quietly looking behind her from time to time through a small mirror.
Huacheng was a city with no winter, and more than half of the year was in the hot summer season. Perhaps because of this reason, the commercial street of Huacheng built some peculiar, both sides of the second floor of the stores along the street at least more than the first floor poured out more than four meters wide, are relying on the thick solid columns supporting the formation of a four-meter-wide promenade, both sides of the stores are very consciously do not set up any merchandise in front of the store to solicit customers, like shopping people to the commercial street shopping and even the parasol do not have to bring, you can freely enter and exit their favorite stores to store.
But even so, not many people come out to shop at this time of the day; after all, it’s no more comfortable than staying at home.
After walking through twenty or thirty stores, the trench coat and sunglasses man finally appeared in MuYu’s small mirror, still following her and staring at her like before, she was instantly very nervous, yet she didn’t move as she continued to walk forward, quietly surveying him in the mirror as she did so.
After determining that he was really following her, she did not move and entered a popular clothing store at the side, pretending to fancy a dress and taking it into the fitting room to try it on. After closing the door, she immediately sent a location in the small group of three, telling them that someone was following her, and asked them to rush over immediately.
After receiving the reply, she put the phone away, changed her clothes out, pretended to be dissatisfied, and changed two more dresses and skirts, estimating that the time was almost up, then she changed the clothes, and just said that she didn’t like it, and went out of the clothing store, and didn’t turn around to look at it, and continued to stroll forward as unhurriedly as she had done before, while quietly holding a mirror to watch the movements behind her.
But this time she was disappointed, as the trench coat man had not reappeared in her little mirror even after having walked out of forty or fifty stores.
Did he have a new stalking target?
Geez! He’s not going to go wreak havoc on another female, is he?
A pang of chagrin washed over her, and she blamed herself for having just spent too much time in the costume store.
Just then, Cheng Xiang sent a message in the WeChat group, “Young granny, are you sure someone is following you?”
Knowing that Cheng Xiang was nearby, she immediately grew bold and immediately turned around and walked in the direction she came from, pulling the oncoming passerby to inquire about the trench coat man’s whereabouts at the same time.
It finally came to a head when she asked the sixth person, who told her that she had indeed seen such a strange person.
“I saw him go down that alley over there.” So said the other.
“Thanks.” Mu Yu immediately ran in the direction he pointed.
The alley into a snack street, gathered all over the country snacks, shopping tired people like to enter this street to find their favorite food. Compared with the atmosphere of luxury commercial street, snack street seems very simple, the decoration of each store is relatively simple, go is practical style, even the signboards are only written at a glance the name of the food, but this does not affect their status in the hearts of diners, almost every store has guests in the food, because the store and even the whole street environmental hygiene are quite good.
Mu Yu, who was standing at the entrance of the alley sweeping and looking around, was enticed to inhale deeply a few times by the aroma of various delicacies wafting in her face.
It’s so fragrant!
She swallowed.
No wonder the shopping street is so cold, so people are reporting here!
But she didn’t have time to care about food at the moment. Put away the impulse to savor the food, she walked forward quickly, while scanning left and right, while pulling people to inquire. It is not strange not to ask, once asked her people are silly, because from the street asked to the end of the street, but no one has seen the man in windbreaker, looking at the end of the street, even the shadow of the man in windbreaker have not seen.
It was at this point that she realized that she had supposedly been fooled by the pointers, and she was so angry that she turned indignantly and sent a message to the small group.
“How can there be such bad people? How dare they point out directions indiscriminately!”
“What’s going on?” Cheng Xiang asked.
“Didn’t find that person?” Liu Xiaofan asked.
“I didn’t find him. He was dressed so strangely that if he had entered the snack street, he would have attracted attention, and the fact that the whole street said they had never seen such a person means that he hadn’t entered the snack street at all, and that person who gave directions must have been talking nonsense!”
“Crap, there are still people with such low quality in Huacheng?!”
When Liu Xiaofan cursed, Cheng Xiang didn’t pick up on his words but asked in Ait Mu, “Are you sure that person is following you?”
“Then did you get a good look at that person?” Liu Xiaofan added.
“The man was wearing a large trench coat, sunglasses, a mask and a hat, and the hat was pressed down so low that I couldn’t see him at all. But I think he wasn’t exactly following me, his target should be female. Earlier, in order to wait for Cheng Xiang to come over, I purposely stayed in that clothing store for a while longer, and then when I came out again, he disappeared, maybe he found a new stalking target. We must uncover this stalker as soon as possible! Stop him him from wreaking havoc on people ah!” Because of her haste, Mu Yan even mistyped a few words when she typed, but seeing that it didn’t affect their understanding of her words, she couldn’t be bothered to revise it for a while.
Liu Xiaofan sent a dazed expression, “But you don’t even know what he looks like, what if he goes into the toilet and takes off his trench coat, sunglasses, hat, and just walks past you and you don’t know that he’s the one who’s just stalking you, how does that make us go find him?”
Mu Yan hadn’t thought about the layer of changing clothes, and froze.
Cheng Xiang explained, “Young granny, when this stalker realized that you discovered his stalking, he didn’t do anything excessive to you, instead he hid, which shows that he’s very weak and timid, plus it’s daytime again, he shouldn’t be a scourge, and stalking you might just be a way to satisfy his hobby of peeping on women. So you don’t need to worry too much.”
Mu disagreed, “That’s just your personal speculation, what if it’s not what you think it is?”
“If he has really scourged people, there will definitely be someone to report to the police, and the police department will have a record.” Liu Xiaofan picks up, “How about this, I’ll find a friend in the bureau to inquire about this aspect of the news, if there is no relevant news, then it means Cheng Xiang’s speculation is correct, we can go back to the hotel at ease, if there is relevant news, then we’ll think of another way to help the Huacheng police to find out this stalker?”
Feeling that his words made sense, Mu Yu gave a “hmm”.
“I’ll call and ask then, you guys wait there until I hear.”
With these words, Muyao’s heart was slightly more at ease.
“Young Granny, this way.”
Hearing Cheng Xiang’s voice, Mu Yan immediately looked up and saw him standing in front of a snack bar waving at her and immediately jogged over.
“Young granny, this is Hua City’s specialty snack of pickled vegetable pie, I heard that it’s delicious with the owner’s secret mixed vegetable soup, do you want to come and try it?”
“Is it good?”
“I haven’t eaten before, but you can see that there are still so many people lined up at this hour, so it definitely can’t be wrong. I guess it’ll take a while for Xiaofan to inquire, so why don’t we wait while we eat?”
Mu Yu was not very interested, but seeing Cheng Xiang so interested, she did not spoil his fun, nodded and said the word “good”.
“Then I’ll go stand in line.” Cheng Xiang found a seat for her to sit at the front of the store and darted inside himself to line up for a number.
The front of the pie store was not small, it just seemed crowded because it was filled with people.
Mu Yu thought she would have to wait for a long time, but she didn’t expect Cheng Xiang to come out with a large tray in only two or three minutes, on the tray was a stack of pies cut into small pieces and a bowl of soup that was still steaming hot, and the soup was colorful and pretty.
Before he even reached her, she could smell the aroma that hit her, and her previously suppressed appetite was once again aroused.
“Aren’t there a lot of people? How did you get it so quickly?” She asked as she picked up her spoon and chopsticks.
“The nice man gave up his seat.” Cheng Xiang hemmed and hawed.
Knowing that what he called giving way was paying a high price for his number, she didn’t bother to say anything, and was about to start eating when a sudden bawling came from behind her, and she turned her head suspiciously, suddenly surprised.
How is he?
What’s he crying about?
