Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

After the girl left, the interrogation room fell into a brief silence.

The two policemen packed up their things and went to the meeting room.

At this time, the captain was still questioning other students, and the two policemen who were questioning Xu Meir went to the meeting room first.

Sitting on the chairs, the two discussed in a low voice.

After a while, a deep male voice sounded: "Do you believe what she said?"

The policewoman said with a serious expression: "I only believe in evidence."

Gao Tian: "What Xu Meir said was very different from what her classmates said. They all said that she and Zhou Zhao were very ambiguous and basically in a state of mutual affection. Some even said that Zhou Zhao was planning to confess his love to Xu Meir last night."

Lin Xin: "Do you suspect Xu Meir killed Zhou Zhao?"

Gao Tian: "I can't say that, I just have some doubts."

Lin Xin frowned slightly: "But Zhou Zhao's body was cut into 44 pieces. How could a delicate girl like Xu Meier dismember him without alerting everyone? Moreover, even if she didn't like him, there was no need to kill him in such a cruel way, right?"

Gao Tian: "I also have doubts about this, but the surveillance over there has been completely destroyed. We can't see what happened."

Lin Xin: "The murderer must have planned this for a long time."

Gao Tian: “Yes.”

As they were discussing, the captain and several policemen came in, and the two men stood up quickly.

"Sit down," the captain walked to the blackboard, "I will tell you about the case."

"At 2023 a.m. on September 9, 20, we received a report that Zhou Zhao, monitor of Class 10 (A) of Senior 44 Middle School, was found dead more than meters outside the toilet of Tiandi KTV. Investigation revealed that the victim was dismembered into neatly cut pieces. These are the pictures. Please share them with each other."

The captain took out a stack of photos and handed it to the person closest to him, and then continued: "The person who reported the case was Wang Tao, a classmate of the victim. According to him, he found the deceased's head while going to the toilet at around 05:10 and reported the case at around 05:20. Zhao Liang arrived at the crime scene about 20 minutes before the police arrived, and Liu Kong arrived after we arrived at 6:00."

"After asking the students in Class 3 (A), we learned that they went to celebrate Zhou Zhao's birthday together last night. Some of them went home before the party was over, while others went home after it was over. As for Wang Tao, Zhao Liang, and Liu Kong, they drank too much and slept in the private room."

"The Zhou family's drivers and bodyguards said that their young master had told them before the birthday party that they only needed to send their classmates home if they wanted to go home. He had things to do and they didn't need to take care of him. Therefore, no one knew that Zhou Zhao didn't go home last night."

"We checked the surveillance footage, but unfortunately it was destroyed by someone, in a very professional way, and it cannot be restored for the time being, so we cannot understand the case through the surveillance footage."

The captain gave everyone some photos related to the case and asked, "Tell me what you think?"

"Captain, the incisions on the body are complete and neat. The murderer must have some knowledge and practical experience in anatomy. The murderer's occupation may be medical, a butcher, or a professional killer."

"I have something to add," the police officer who had studied criminal psychology raised his hand and said, "From the neat cuts on the murderer's face, the destroyed surveillance, the fact that no one in the KTV noticed him/her, and the fact that he/she placed the victim directly in a public place, we can see that the murderer has a very strong psychological quality and a strong anti-detection ability."

"Not hiding the body at all and leaving it openly is undoubtedly a provocation and contempt for us."

"Such people may be repeat offenders, or they may have worked in related professions and are our colleagues."

The captain nodded and said, "Okay, the subsequent investigation will focus on the aspects you mentioned. Because the victim's identity is special, the higher-ups attach great importance to this case and require us to close the case within a week. Everyone must work hard!"

Everyone said in unison: "Yes!"

The captain continued, "The victim's interpersonal relationships are still under investigation, and some of the autopsy results have not yet come out. Please be patient and feel free to speak up if you have any questions."

"Captain," Gao Tian and Lin Xin looked at each other and then said, "During our interrogation, Xu Meir was mentioned many times, but the girl in the cardboard box did not provide us with any important clues."

"Oh? I haven't read your interrogation records yet. Can you tell me more about it?"

Gao Tian and Lin Xin repeated the content of the interrogation in detail. After listening, the captain lowered his eyes and thought.

"Well, send someone to keep an eye on her things for the next few days. Xiao Wang, you go."

"Yes!" Xiao Wang responded.

Afterwards, the captain sent people to pay attention to the movements of Wang Tao, who was the first to discover the victim, and Zhao Liang, who was extremely agitated, to check for suspicious persons in Tiandi KTV, and to investigate people who had conflicts with Zhou Zhao and those who had conflicts with the Zhou family.

……

After the meeting, Lin Xin asked Xiao Wang in a low voice: "Does the victim have any special identity?"

Xiao Wang looked around and whispered in the same voice: "He is the nephew of the Secretary General of the East District."

"Oh my God." Lin Xin covered her mouth.

On the other side, Xu Meir and her husband returned home. Xu Meir said something briefly to the man and went to her room.

She sat on the soft bed, her thoughts drifting away. From what the police said, she could roughly guess that the KTV's surveillance camera had been destroyed. She didn't know how that person had destroyed it and whether it could be restored later.

If she could be restored, her actions would be seen clearly, and then she...

There is a completely different meaning between confessing voluntarily and being discovered.

And the man who brought her home...what was his purpose?
