Chapter 56: Broken Finger
Intuition told Lu Xiyan that this matter would not be easily concluded whether it was for himself or for Meng Fanxing.
The next morning, Lu Xiyan called Meng Hao over.
"From today on, you will go to work with your sister and get off work, protect your sister's care all day long. Do you understand?"
"Brother An Zi, don't worry, but then where is my police room?" Meng Hao was embarrassed. It was not that he was unwilling to do so, but he had a public office. If he absent from work for no reason, he was found out by the superiors, he would have to remember the demerit and fined him.
"I'll talk to you Detective Tang."
"That's good, Brother Anzi, you have a big face..."
"Remember, everything is based on your sister's safety as the first principle, and you don't have to consider anything else. Do you understand?" Before going out, Lu Xiyan reminded him again.
"I know."
"Meimei, in the study, the second drawer on the left side of the desk, there is something, and when necessary, take it out to protect yourself."
"I understand, you should be careful too." Meng Fanxing knew what Lu Xiyan was talking about. How could Lu Xiyan get a gun when he went to work in the hospital?
"Don't worry, I know it."
...
Lu Xiyan is a newcomer in the police station, but he is also a celebrity in the French Concession. Many people know him and know his relationship with Tang Jin.
Therefore, no one stopped him from entering and leaving the central police room.
Knock on the door.
"Please come in."
"Oh, it's Brother Lu, why do you say it in advance?" Tang Jin was very surprised. Why did Lu Xiyan suddenly run over?
"Brother Tang, I, as an adviser, don't do anything. I'm really sorry to get a portion of money." Lu Xiyan sat down and said.
"Look at what you said, you are a consultant at critical moments, and you don't need those small things in normal times." Tang Jin smiled and shouted at the door, "A person comes in."
"Inspector, what are your instructions?" A police officer came in.
"Go and buy two cups of coffee to send it." Tang Jin took out a piece of fiat currency worth ten yuan and handed it over, and ordered it.
"Yes, Inspector."
"Brother Tang, I just come to sit for a while, and I have to go to the hospital to work later, so I won't drink coffee." Lu Xiyan hurriedly said.
"I really don't drink it?"
"If you don't drink, I'll get your salary. Are you still polite to you?" Lu Xiyan smiled.
"Okay, I won't drink it anymore. You go and make two cups of tea and come in." Tang Jin gave another order.
When everyone said this, Lu Xiyan couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to nod.
"Yesterday afternoon, someone threw a pack of dead rats into the small pharmacy I run, and a note warning me to reflect on myself. This time it was a dead rat, and next time it was a bomb." Lu Xiyan said.
"Was there any such thing called the police?" Tang Jin said in surprise.
"If it is useful to call the police, the French Concession will be peaceful long ago. Besides, no one can see clearly, and it is useless to have the police coming." Lu Xiyan said.
"It's so rampant, these people!" Tang Jin was extremely angry.
Lu Xiyan looked at Tang Jin's emotional reaction carefully, and it didn't seem to be fake, but he might have known about this for a long time.
"Brother Tang, can you borrow Meng Hao for a few days? I'm afraid these people will go to my pharmacy?" Lu Xiyan asked.
"No problem, Meng Hao is still very good. He has a flexible mind and is a craftsman." Tang Jin said, "I can also say hello to Monte and let them walk around the pharmacy when patrolling the streets."
"Okay, then thank you Brother Tang."
"By the way, have you read the file of the murder of Master Cai?" Tang Jin asked.
"I've seen it, there are some doubts. Do you want to intervene in the investigation immediately?" Lu Xiyan asked.
"This case is under great pressure on public opinion. Although the police station spent a lot of police force to investigate, they all encountered great resistance. There was no big problem with the public concession. It was just that the Japanese concession (Hongkou, the wartime neutral area, under the jurisdiction of the Japanese) did not cooperate, and we could not carry out many investigations." Tang Jin said.
"Is the first crime scene where the victim was cut off his head right?"
"Yes, if we cannot determine the first crime scene, we cannot determine the murderer. Moreover, this is a premeditated murder case, which involves too many connections. It is quite difficult to thoroughly investigate the truth." Tang Jin said.
"In other words, this is a hot potato?"
"Yes, but I can't push this case off. The above also hopes that I will give a result as soon as possible. The people below are also staring at us. Can we give the victim's family a fair and a word, it's hard!" Tang Jin sighed helplessly.
"As long as there is evidence, can we arrest people?" Lu Xiyan was silent for a while, and asked slightly raised his head.
"As long as the evidence is conclusive, the Japanese cannot stop them even if they have any reason." Tang Jin said.
"Okay, I'll give it a try." Lu Xiyan made a decision. There are some things, the more you retreat, the more arrogant your opponent will be.
"That's great. Brother Lu will definitely succeed if he takes action."
"I'll go to the hospital to work first." Lu Xiyan didn't know where Tang Jin got his confidence in him, but this matter could not be delayed any longer.
Even if the step ahead is hell, Lu Xiyan will step on it without hesitation.
...
I rushed to the hospital and was half an hour late for work hours.
Surgery, as soon as Lu Xiyan came upstairs, he saw seven or eight people gathered at the door of his office, all of whom were surgeons and nurses.
"What's going on? What are you doing around my office?"
"Doctor Lu, you're here." When Xi Mengyao saw Lu Xiyan, her pretty face was not bloody at all, and she seemed to be scared by something.
"What's wrong, what's going on?"
"Doctor Lu, look..." Xi Mengyao pointed her hand, inside the room, on Lu Xiyan's desk.
Lu Xiyan walked to the door and looked in the direction of Xi Mengyao's finger. His eyes suddenly shrank, and a bloody finger was placed on his desk.
"Nothing, the pranks that some people have made have all dispersed, they have dispersed..." Lu Xiyan walked in, glanced at the bloody fingers, and a crooked warning written on the table, exactly the same as the note of warning in the dead mouse yesterday afternoon.
"Doctor Lu, really, is it really a prank?" Xi Mengyao walked in carefully, but was still very scared. The moment she opened the door, she was frightened.
"It's just a finger, what's there to be afraid of? Have you never taken the human anatomy class?" Lu Xiyan said, "If you are a surgeon, you won't be able to do this."
"Doctor Lu, you don't know. I took a human anatomy class. I vomited once last time. Now, as long as I smell that smell, I will vomit..."
"Stop looking at it, what's the best thing to look like, go to work." Lu Xiyan turned around and walked over, closing the office door.
"Doctor Lu..."
"Don't talk, go and get me some tweezers, suck the earball and brush it." Lu Xiyan's whole mind was on this broken finger.
Forensic science is the technique of letting dead people speak. As long as it is any component on the victim, it can speak.
"It's not this kind of brush, it's the kind of extremely thin, fluff brush..."
"oh oh……"
"Doctor Lu, what are you doing?" Xi Mengyao suppressed the spasm of her stomach and curiously approached Lu Xiyan's head and asked.
"What are you doing so close to me? Go a little bit." Lu Xiyan focused on studying all possible information on the finger.
"Doctor Lu, what are you looking at?"
"Mengyao, please help me record it." Lu Xiyan ordered.
"oh."
"Men, about 45 years old, is thin, fishing or buying fish for a living, her fingers were cut off. The victim may have died between 9 o'clock last night and 2 o'clock in the morning. Now there is only so much information that can be obtained. The mud and blood type in his nails need further testing to get results." Lu Xiyan said.
"Doctor Lu, what are you talking about?" Xi Mengyao was confused when she heard this.
"Today's incident is just a prank. Do you understand? Don't cause panic in the hospital." Lu Xiyan ordered and picked up the phone on the table, "I am Lu Xiyan from the surgery department, pick up the political department of the police station to find Inspector Tang Jin."
"Hey, Brother Tang, I, Lu Xiyan, as soon as I arrived at the office, someone sent me a gift, a broken finger and a thumb on my right hand, very fresh, it should have been cut off last night... Come on, okay, I'll wait for you in the office."
