Chapter 440 Because You Are Not with Me

Late at night, it rained in the mountains.

Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan lived together in a simple room, because this was the only condition in the mountains.

Feng Shanshan didn't like humidity, so she pulled Mu Qiqi to talk: "You don't care, Old Man Sheng, what do you want to do to you again?"

"I don't want to care, because no matter what he wants to do, he won't succeed." Mu Qiqi covered her head and wanted to have a good rest. She was already very tired after four hours of bumpy ride in the mountains.

However, before the two of them had time to turn off the lights, they heard someone shouting: "A body has been found again. People from the forensic team, come and take a look."

This is at the junction of Jianchuan and other urban areas, so they will jointly handle the case.

Mu Qiqi and the two immediately stood up from the bed. Outside the door, the police team had already assembled. Everyone was holding black umbrellas and heading towards the place where the body was found.

It was in a cave on the mountain. The body was still very fresh. He must have died shortly before nightfall. There were only a few spots on the body.

The forensic team was about to take action to conduct further autopsies, but people from the town came to stop them: "Don't touch this body, it's too evil, so as not to attract evil people."

The professor has been handling cases for so many years and has seen many cases of closed-minded people, so he asked the forensic doctors and Mu Qiqi to step back and let the police force comfort the people.

As expected, the people in the police force were all veterans, and they coaxed and deceived the man from the town away.

"You...did you smell anything special? It's very pungent."

Mu Qiqi stood in front of the cave and asked everyone.

The professors and others immediately turned their attention to the corpse, only to see that the body that was still intact just now had begun to gradually turn into bones.

Mu Qiqi looked up and found something dripping from the entrance of the cave.

The professor stopped everyone and said only: "It's sulfuric acid."

"That's why these corpses have been demonized."

"Sulfuric acid is all artificially synthesized. How come there is sulfuric acid dripping from it?"

Everyone looked at each other and could only examine the body first, then collect evidence and go back to study.

"It seems that there is no way to rest tonight!"

…

When Sheng Xiao finished his business and went back to the bedroom, he found that the little thing was not at home today. The huge room was empty, and it didn't feel quiet on weekdays. It was just because that little thing was not there, so... I felt very worried.

What is the meaning of struggle? Isn’t it all about that little thing?

It's raining so heavily, and I don't know if that little thing is safe.

…

"The deceased is a female, aged between 20 and 22 years old, 162 centimeters tall and weighing 45 kilograms."

"The time of death was between six and seven o'clock in the evening. There were no obvious signs of contusion on the body, no violation, no strangulation marks on the neck, and no signs of drowning. What needs to be investigated now is natural death and poisoning."

"People from the family situation police team are investigating."

"No, it's scary to wear a red dress in the middle of the night." The people from the police force felt a little cold on their backs, "Also, after being corroded by sulfuric acid, half of the face has turned into bones. It's really It’s a bit like the ghost in the movie.”

"Tonight, we will spend the night with this dead body. If she really turns into a ghost, none of you can escape."

The professor did not listen to the police force's nonsense. Instead, he looked at Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think we can find out if there are any taboos or legends about the nearby residents. I think the regional culture may help us find some clues." Mu Qiqi said. The deceased came out wearing a red dress at night, and the small town before The man shouted not to touch the body. Mu Qiqi felt that this was crucial information.

"I wonder if you noticed on the way here that there are very few women here..." Feng Shanshan also raised her doubts, "Before we came, two died, and the three now are all A young woman."

Upon hearing this, the professor nodded: "Okay, I understand. You two go and have a rest. You will be busy tomorrow."

Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan looked at each other and then went back to their rooms. However, the body was also in this small courtyard. It must be said that the body was dressed in red, which made people get goosebumps just thinking about it.

The two of them lay back on the bed, but they couldn't fall asleep.

Mu Qiqi turned over and took out her mobile phone, wanting to send a text message to Sheng Xiao, but at this time, he should be asleep.

But something went wrong. Mu Qiqi was about to cancel the message, but pressed the send button instead.

However, there was only the word Xiaoxiao in the text message.

Mu Qiqi sighed and wanted to withdraw, but Sheng Xiao replied instantly: "What's the matter? You stinky thing, you're not sleeping yet."

"I'm doing an autopsy here. Can you tell me why you're still awake at this hour?"

"My arms are empty, I'm not used to it...I can't hear your snoring, it feels too quiet."

"You're the one who snores." Mu Qiqi retorted unconvinced, "The body found tonight was next door, wearing bright red clothes. I'm... a little scared."

"On weekdays, why aren't you afraid when you are at home?"

"Because you are not with me." Mu Qiqi replied seriously. "After I came out, I realized that the reason why I feel safe, courageous, and bold is because you are by my side."

"Silly thing, then I'll get up and take care of business, put it on speakerphone, and you won't be afraid when you hear my voice."

"No, no, it's so late, and I feel bad for you staying up late." Mu Qiqi quickly stopped him.

However, Sheng Xiao had already called.

Mu Qiqi took out the headphones from her bag, and after putting them on, she could really hear Sheng Xiao's voice.

"You know how much you can't live without me, right? Are you going to leave me without permission in the future?"

"If you encounter a murder case, you still need it!"

"If you're afraid again, I won't care about you."

Huh, who believes it?

Mu Qiqi didn't know when she fell asleep that night. She only knew that when she heard Sheng Xiao's voice, she felt that he was beside her. She felt that sense of security. Even if the sky fell, she would not be afraid. No matter what monsters he is, don't even think about getting close to him.

The next morning, Mu Qiqi was woken up.

Because the girl's parents hurried over after the rain stopped and demanded that their daughter's body be taken away, and they did not agree with the forensic doctor's autopsy.

However, the cause of death has not yet been concluded, and the police cannot rule out suicide or homicide, so they started arguing with the girl's parents.

The old couple was crying and arguing, and almost hit a stone on the road. The police couldn't do their job at all.

"You two are the only girls in the police force. Go and persuade her." The professor said to Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan.
