Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 442: Which Hand You Want Broken? Tell Me Right Now

Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan had already packed their things, whereas the police were still talking to the townsfolk.

There was no telling the reason why they were overreacting towards the autopsy.

“They are simply incited. The one who really didn’t want us to dissect the corpse is the murderer.” Mu Qiqi said even as she watched the people outside miserably.

With the real cause of death yet to be known and the body untouchable, the only thing delayed was the police’s time in finding the killer.

And forget stopping the autopsy. What did those people want, preventing the police from moving freely?

“From the looks of things, we would still have to waste more time with these people. You two should leave soon so that we would be less worried.”

“Actually, professor, I have an idea.” Mu Qiqi said. “When Xiao Xiao and the others arrive later, they could help create some chaos, and we could use that moment to move the corpse back to Jianchuan and perform the autopsy at the forensics lab, because the victim’s family had given their consent. What do you think?”

The professor thought about it and nodded. “That might work. But can we put the corpse on his car when he arrives?”

“Actually, when I told him I ran into a trouble... he decided to come with a dozen men, all of whom are specially trained.”

“Oh...” The professor could not help chuckling. “That man really loves you.”

“So, although we definitely couldn’t fight the townsfolk, we could at least create some confusion.”

“That would be easy since there are extra cars.”

“We could call for an ambulance. Us two girls could feign illness to misdirect their attention.”

“Bright kid. Still, we could directly move the body to the hospital if we’re calling an ambulance. That would save the time of heading to Jianchuan, and I will now discuss with the police about further details for the plan. Let’s work together—that’s just more useful than wasting time here.”

Mu Qiqi nodded, and shared a glance with Feng Shanshan then.

Whether it was the dead girls or the townsfolk, a weird atmosphere hung over the entire town. Their actions were certainly puzzling—what tradition could be that forbidding?

Meanwhile, the professor left the room for a bit, and had made detailed arrangements when he returned.

“I’ve contacted a nearby hospital for support. Their ambulance would be waiting on the way out for your chief’s convoy—Xiao Qi, your idea is very good. At least we don’t have to remain here confronting the townsfolk.”

“Finding clues are the most important. Shanshan is already prepared, and she would be disguised as a policeman and leave with the ambulance when the corpse is stretchered off.”

People usually become stuck to their rules, become rigid, and never think about changing their approach.

On the other hand, this little one’s mind was reliable.

Hence, they waited for three anxious hours when Sheng Xiao’s black sedan and four other escorting cars pulled into the facility, with an ambulance following behind them.

The roads were slippery after the rain. When the high and mighty CEO finally reached the mountains, he was still a little worn. Still, that was thanks to Xu Che showing his prowess at driving, and Sheng Xiao had to commend him on the way.

The mob of men from the nearby town promptly gathered when they found more people coming into the facility, with various weapons and tools in hand. Be that as it may, it was also quite the sight when Xu Che and the black-suited bodyguards all got off the cars.

The mob was slightly scared at that.

The police would not fight them because of the law, but those laws did not apply to others.

Sheng Xiao was in the lead, and was about to head to his little one when he found her in the courtyard, but was stopped by one of the townsfolk. “Why are you here?”

Sheng Xiao said nothing, and simply turned behind to glance at Xu Che.

Understanding his intention, Xu Che walked up, snatched away the stick in the man’s hand and snapped it in two with his bare hands.

The man was shocked by Xu Che’s strength and took two steps back.

“I’ll sue you for excessive force if you touch me.”

“We are not the police and we have money. We just have to pay damages even if we cripple you... so tell me right now, which hand you want broken?” Xu Che said, whipping out his wallet to take out some cash at the same time.

“What are you doing here if you’re not the police?”

Nonetheless, Xu Che simply shoved the many off, and the rest of the mob naturally did not dare to make a false move. No longer obstructed, Sheng Xiao simply walked up to Mu Qiqi and took her into his arms. “We need to talk about this when we get back.”

“There’s still someone sick inside. We need to get the ambulance inside.” Mu Qiqi, pointing at the building.

Even though the mob was wary, they were not educated enough to catch on to any crafty schemes.

Soon, the ambulance came in and two nurses got off with a stretcher, entering and coming out of the building in no time at all. They moved swiftly, putting the body on the stretcher into the vehicle and immediately closing the door.

The police gave Mu Qiqi a look, signaling that everything was in order.

Hence, Mu Qiqi looked up at Sheng Xiao. “Let’s go home...”

Meanwhile, the mob was studying the dozen or so bodyguards, all of whom appeared far beyond your average joe. It was only natural to assume that they were as strong as the man who snapped the thick wooden stick in half.

Hence, the townsfolk did not dare to provoke them, and simply watched as the forensics team left the facility.

Who cares what they do, as long as the corpse was untouched?

They simply did not know that the corpse was already in the ambulance.

“Xiao Xiao, do you know that you’re a hero to the police now?”

Sheng Xiao, however, would not hear a word of her flattery, and simply held her over his thighs and started spanking away. “I only see you being surrounded by a group of men holding sticks big enough to split your head.”

“I did what you said and called you!” Mu Qiqi exclaimed, tears welling in her eyes. “Don’t you know how uncomfortable I was when you’re not around? But I feel safe now that you’re here.”

“I’ll get you straightened later.”

Since Xu Che was driving, the car was basically dashing away, and Sheng Xiao kept Mu Qiqi straightened to avoid her from throwing up.

Soon, everyone reached a small city nearby, with the professor escorting Feng Shanshan out of the ambulance. “This is far enough. The rest of you could return to Jianchuan. I must head to the hospital for the autopsy—the police would back me up.”

“Okay. Give us feedback as soon as you can, professor.”

Feng Shanshan was not in the same car with Mu Qiqi, but left with Sheng Xiao’s bodyguards instead.

After hours of running around, Mama Sheng eventually found Mu Qiqi in her worn state when they returned home. “Qiqi, where have you been with Sheng Xiao?”

“I was helping out at the mountains, mother. It was raining, so I got a little dirty.”
