Chapter 195: Nametag

“My Sweetie, my heart aches so! If I have known this would happen, I would have stopped you from getting to know that kid! Nothing good ever happens around him.” Old Madam Mo and Mo Li were inside Mo Li’s bedroom. Old Madam Mo felt better after seeing Mo Li change into her pajamas. However, her tone was still full of disdain towards Quan Yu.

Mo Li suppressed the smile in her eyes and concurred albeit in a different meaning, “Yes, it’s always interesting being around him.”

On the other hand, Mo Yu was so angry that he could explode. The rascal dared to abduct his younger sister and spent the night out. He even had the guts to come visit them in person. Mo Yu stared daggers at him.

Upon receiving the news, Xiao Yuan rolled over immediately. Quan Yu frowned because Xiao Yuan had brought his brother with him.

When she saw Xiao Rui, Mo Li shared the news of the girl they saw in the mountains with him. “The victim’s state is deplorable. Even though when we found her, the cats have taken bites from her face, I can be sure that she didn’t suffer man-made superficial injuries. Other than that, her eyes and mouth were sewn shut with fishing line. Something was poured into her ears, I didn’t have to the time to check for what it was.”

Xiao Rui looked surprised. For one, he was surprised that Mo Li could remember these details and relay them without batting an eye. It was like she was used to dealing with corpses. For two…

“A similar victim was discovered in the city last week. We’ve invited our city’s most professional coroner, Doctor Lu Xuan to conduct the autopsy. Similarly, the victim’s eyes and mouth were sewn shut by fishing line. The victim’s ears were sealed with beeswax. It was like the killer was trying to replicate sensory deprivation on the victims.” Xiao Rui originally wanted to hold back some details but since Mo Li had brought this up, he too provided his share of information.

“My God, what is happening to the world these days? These people are heartless!” Old Madam Mo covered her mouth and shook her head.

Quan Yu frowned. This probably doesn’t have to do with the Quan Family. Those people wouldn’t have gone to such length just because I’m at Pearl River.

“Is the victim also a female high school student?” Mo Li turned to Xiao Rui. The important thing was to confirm if the killer had specific targets or they killed indiscriminately.

“Yes, she came from a normal family, her parents own a small business.” Xiao Rui then contacted his superior.

“I refuse!” Lu Xuan crossed his arms defiantly.

“Old man, have you lost your mind? As the forensic consultant, this is your job, how can you refuse to do the autopsy?” Xiao Rui gritted his teeth. If not for his boss’ request, he wouldn’t have bothered to deal with this old coot.

“I already told you. If you want my cooperation, then my teacher must be present!”

Xiao Rui had no idea what Lu Xuan was rambling about. Lu Xuan’s teacher would be dead already. Clearly Lu Xuan was purposely making trouble and it irked Xiao Rui to no end. “Fine, who is your teacher? I’ll go help you dig up his grave and bring him here!”

“Sheesh, touch wood! My teacher is sitting right there.” Lu Xian pointed to the direction of Mo Li and Quan Yu who were giving statements to an officer. Xiao Rui was surprised that Quan Yu even knew forensic science. Xiao Rui heard from the force that Quan Yu was the new master of the Quan Family but he didn’t expect Quan Yu to know how to do autopsy as well.

“No way, even if he is the young master of the Quan Family, he can’t take part in the autopsy because he’s involved in the case.” Even though Xiao Rui knew Quan Yu was not to be crossed, rules are rules.

“Quan Yu? Who needs him? I’m talking about the person beside him, Teacher Mo Li!” When Lu Xuan said that, his eyes and tone filled with admiration.

Xiao Rui’s face filled with disbelief. Has this old fellow gone mad? Everyone at Pearl River knows that the young miss of the Mo Family is a good for nothing. Plus she is just a high school student. There’s no way she can be Lu Xuan’s teacher.

In any case, since Quan Yu and Mo Li were the first to report the case, they had to go through a lot of procedures. They helped led the police to the graveside. When the victim was hauled up from the ground, a school nametag fell out.

“22 High School, Year 2 Class 8, Zhang Ling.” Xiao Rui read from the nametag. He told his people to search for the girl’s info and to notify her family.

When Mo Li heard that, her heart skipped a beat. 22 High School… Zhang Ling… Ling Er… This has to be a joke right?

Reading Mo Li’s thought, Quan Yu patted her shoulder in comfort, “This is probably a mistake. Elder Zhang is so kind, God wouldn’t do this to him.”

However, the words sounded hollow even to Quan Yu’s own ears.
