Chapter 632: Waiting for Your Loved One?
“I know what you are thinking about. But sorry, it’s not gonna happen.”
Feng Shanshan made a gesture of contempt and turned to Tang Yan. “Then we shall go back to the police station first. Call us when you need us.”
Tang Yan did not look at her but nodded. Just as the two were about to leave, he said to the new forensic doctor, “I want the drug test report tonight.”
The new forensic doctor did not know Tang Yan was a workaholic and nodded his head blankly.
Feng Shanshan and Mu Qiqi exchanged glances and smiled. They knew the newcomer was going to suffer at the police station.
A few of them carried the body out of the building. Since it was a murder case, the whole block was cordoned off using tape. But still, many students came to watch from a distance not too far away.
Mu Qiqi looked at the students. She knew they had to solve the case as soon as possible or the people would be in panic and the students would not be at ease staying at school.
However, not everyone came for the case. Some came for Mu Qiqi.
“So that’s Mu Qiqi. She sure is Mu Feifei’s sister. They look alike, but something’s different when you take a closer look.”
“Stop comparing. Mu Qiqi is also a sophomore, but she is already working on the crime scenes of the murder cases. Although they look very similar, Mu Qiqi is Sheng Xiao’s woman. Of course her temperament and confidence will be distinctly difference from Mu Feifei’s.”
“So, are we considered people who have seen a celebrity?”
Feng Shanshan heard a lot of comments about Mu Qiqi from the students while walking past the crowd, so she nudged Mu Qiqi. “You’re so majestic now.”
Mu Qiqi glanced at her with disdain and looked to the crowd. Right then, she saw Mu Tangxue among the people.
They had not seen each other for more than a year now, right? Time was really good at making people forget about many things.
Soon after, Feng Shanshan saw the girl among the crowd as well.
Wasn’t it the scene she was anticipating?
Mu Qiqi glanced at Feng Shanshan and took off the white latex gloves. Then, she threw the gloves to Feng Shanshan and walked toward Mu Tangxue.
Only then did the students around realize that Mu Tangxue was also there to join in the excitement. Or, should they say that she came here on purpose after getting the news?
“This is so weird. You don’t even hide yourself when you see me,” Mu Qiqi said to Mu Tangxue, “Your story was so cooked up yesterday and it nearly made me into a target of the cyberbullies. And only now you’re willing to make an appearance.”
“It wasn’t me. But of course I won’t change my current lifestyle just for your sake,” Mu Tangxue said calmly. “I’m not kind enough to stand up and speak for you.”
“Won’t the people in your school know about this if you don’t come out with the truth?”
“You don’t have to know about this.”
Since Mama Ye had planned to hide her from Ye Jingcheng, it was only natural that she would tell the school to make it as if Mu Tangxue was a non-existent being in the world. She had even changed her name when she first enrolled in the school. Hence, when the scandal erupted, she was hardly noticed by the people. Everyone simply knew that she was a quiet student who liked her teacher.
“Then, why are you doing this now?”
“I know that once the Ye family finds me, it means that the Crown Prince will also find me soon. I don’t want to be your enemy, so I’ve come here to make my stand. I know as long as I am harmless to you, the Crown Prince will not do anything to me,” Mu Tangxue said honestly. “And you don’t have time to deal with me, do you?”
“Ye Jingcheng caused me quite some trouble because of you. He was the one who faked your death. You should know about this, right? Mu Tangxue, you are still the same, so selfish.”
“Sister, I have nothing now. I rely on myself entirely. You really don’t have to come and destroy me. Look at us, we are so different. I just want to be a normal person now. Please spare me.”
“Did I say anything?” Mu Qiqi harrumphed. “If you want to live under the sun, you better not do any dirty things again. This is my last advice for you.”
After saying that, Mu Qiqi turned to Feng Shanshan and said, “Let’s go.”
“That’s it? You were in so much trouble the last couple of days. I thought you would slap her when you saw her. In the end...”
“She wasn’t the one who did that. Why should I slap her? Do you want me to make it to the headlines again and confirm the speculation that I abuse my sister? Besides, we’d already settle old scores. Now, we’re just strangers.”
Then, Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan got into the police car. Before leaving the place, Mu Qiqi looked at Mu Tangxue once more.
Mu Tangxue’s heart was still impure. But because she had someone she liked and had been rejected by the person many times, she reflected on her life.
At least, she really did not want to fight with Mu Qiqi anymore.
Because she understood that the gap between her and Mu Qiqi was getting wider and wider, and soon it would become uncrossable.
Besides, she knew that Ye Jingcheng was a big problem that she should solve now. She knew him. If she told him about her feelings toward her teacher, he would investigate and control her teacher.
But she was not afraid.
...
Mu Qiqi looked at the time after returning to the police station. “I’m leaving at five. Are you staying here with the new senior?”
“Ugh, I need to stay until midnight even when you are not here.” Feng Shanshan shook her head helplessly.
“Waiting for your loved one?” Mu Qiqi raised her eyebrows.
“Don’t say it aloud. Duh.”
Mu Qiqi chuckled and stopped teasing Feng Shanshan. Since there was still some time, she wanted to see how skillful the new senior was in dissection.
Although the two were thinking of helping him, the new forensic doctor declined their help because he felt that he had lost his face just now. “You two just stand aside. I’ll do it myself.”
“Okay. You do it.” Mu Qiqi nodded. But as they were moving away from the corpse, Mu Qiqi saw something similar to a rash on the left side of the arm.
So, when the senior was about to cut the body, Mu Qiqi stopped him. “Don’t move.”
“What do you want already?” The new forensic doctor was irritated. “Should I just let you do it then?”
“If you don’t want to be infected by HIV, you better not move.” Mu Qiqi looked at the new forensic doctor. “I suggest that we do a blood test first.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
“See for yourself.” Mu Qiqi showed him the rash on the arm. “Although this might just be eczema or some other skin diseases, HIV-infected people also have this rash in the early stages. The virus can survive up to a day in a dead body, so they can still replicate themselves and infect other people. If you don’t believe it, you can do the blood test.
“Judging from the stage of rigor mortis, his estimated time of death should be between four to five this morning. It’s still within twenty-four hours.”
