The nerves of all of us were taut, even the usually calm Xiao Yuande frowned into the shape of the character '川'.
Xie Chuchu, however, was not afraid at all. She immediately cleaned out the contents of the deceased's mouth. Zhang Keying also helped. After all the items were removed, the deceased's mouth finally relaxed. The question arose: why would the killer do this? kAnshuWu.ξà
We first collected some feathers. It was clear these did not come from the garbage dump. The killer must have prepared them in advance and stuffed them into the deceased's mouth after the murder. There seemed to be some substance on the feathers. My eyes lit up, and I let out a few exclamations.
At the time, everyone else thought I had gone mad, but I excitedly declared, "I know where these feathers came from!"
In fact, I had noticed it earlier at the museum. Thirty minutes later, I had already taken my team to the museum.
Initially, Mr. Liu was unwilling to let us take down the "Galaxy of Light" for investigation, but under our coercion, he finally compromised.
While examining the "Galaxy of Light," I indeed discovered a large section missing from the back of the garment. This was where the feathers should have been hidden. It was a unique design of this outfit. If I hadn't meticulously investigated it when I first came to the museum, I might not have noticed such a detail. Look for words.
Witnessing these phenomena, Zhang Keying said, "So, Brother He Sheng, you think the killer took the materials from here and put them into the deceased's mouth? But this display case..."
I looked sternly in a certain direction: "Mr. Liu, has anything unusual been happening in your museum recently?"
"I, I don't know!!"
When the Punishment Team saw his hesitant reaction, they immediately surrounded him.
"Mr. Liu Kai, if you're not honest, do you know the consequences? We could consider you a suspect at any moment. Do you know how many people have died this time? Think about it, tell me immediately!"
"Actually, actually, I'm not the killer, but this 'Galaxy of Light' is fake!"
"What?" At that moment, we all looked at Mr. Liu in astonishment.
"I cooperated with the culprit and completed this crime. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Mr. Liu, why did you do this?"
"Alas, I originally wanted to conceal it, but I knew you would investigate here. Because when this outfit returned, I understood. You would find me!"
"Then where is the real 'Galaxy of Light'?" For some reason, Tachibana Chuanaki suddenly appeared in the museum at this moment. He seemed extremely angry and violently grabbed Liu Kai's collar.
"Mr. Tachibana, calm down!" I tried to soothe him, but Tachibana Chuanaki seemed to have lost his mind and clenched his fist as if to strike.
"Tachibana Chuanaki, what are you doing? Who told you to come here!"
At that time, Liu Kai did not show weakness, glaring fiercely at him.
"I'm asking you, where is the real 'Galaxy of Light'? You won't say? I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
"That's right, I gave it to the culprit, so what? He's already taken the real 'Galaxy of Light' to Dean Gan! Hahahaha! You people have no idea how devastating Du Meisha's death was to us. You heartless, selfish beasts. You clearly watched Du Meisha standing on the mountaintop that day, but you didn't stop her. You're not human. You watched her jump from there and then acted as if nothing had happened and went home."
"Things are not as you imagine, actually they..." Tachibana Chuanaki couldn't finish. He let go of his hand and, for some reason, rushed out as if he had no regard for his life.
I told Xia Hou to arrest Liu Kai first, then took the remaining people to the forensic institute.
Originally, I thought the killer would be one of the beneficiaries in the will. It seems the situation has changed. If Dean Gan is dead, then it can only be Tachibana Chuanaki. But judging from his reaction just now, Tachibana Chuanaki couldn't be the killer.
As we rushed back to Guangming City, my mind was constantly working, constantly guessing, constantly reasoning back and forth. But no matter what assumption I made, there seemed to be more or less doubts or loopholes.
Perhaps the truth could only be found when we met Dean Gan again.
Before entering Guangming City, He Xin had already located Dean Gan's position for us. He was in the academy.
We were like wild horses galloping, rushing into the academy as soon as we got out of the car. Li Fan's special police had already arrived at the scene and had heavily surrounded the Imperial Museum where Dean Gan was located.
The Imperial Museum is the largest library of our Guangming City Forensic Academy. It is not only the library of our Forensic Academy but also the cultural and artistic base of the entire Guangming City. I never expected the culprit to be holding Dean Gan hostage on the highest rooftop.
That place should be on the 16th floor. Libraries rarely have such height.
I led the Punishment Team and several special police officers to break through the locked museum doors and charged upstairs. After countless winding stairs, we finally reached the rooftop. Before rushing onto the balcony, I discovered that the culprit was...
At that moment, Tachibana Chuanaki stood before them. A man wearing that "Galaxy of Light" garment, holding Dean Gan hostage, stood directly in front of us!! kanδん
This person was none other than Durrag!!
"You..." At that moment, everyone thought Durrag had risen from the dead, but I calmly said, "Old woman, it was indeed you. If I hadn't secretly gone to your house yesterday, I would have thought you were really dead!"
"Ah hahaha, Detective He, I didn't expect you to discover this. But it's all over. As long as I eliminate these beasts who killed my daughter, I can go with her. You don't know how long I've endured for today, even faking my death to deceive these bastards! Because as long as they think I'm dead, they'll have no worries. And then, when they let down their guard, my revenge will begin!"
"He Sheng, so you went to Durrag's house at that time? No wonder you weren't with me!" Liu Yuning said at this moment.
I nodded and took a few steps forward: "Durrag, if I'm not mistaken, you wanted to retrieve that fake 'Galaxy of Light' because Du Meisha's death. It wasn't because of that child's matter, but this garment, right? That day you forced Collins, this bastard who stole Du Meisha's design, to leave the association. You did as you pleased, to make this public, and give them a hint. If you didn't, you would kill him. This guy couldn't bear the pressure, so he did as you said, hoping for your forgiveness. However, the situation was not as he imagined. After he did as you said, you killed him together and stuffed Du Meisha's favorite feathers into his mouth, so that even in death, his soul would always remember how despicable and lowly he was! Such a person should atone for your daughter's sake!!"
