After I Sat At The Wrong Table For My Blind Date, The Crazy Female Lead Kidnapped Me - Chapter 23

Chapter 23: A Painting of Flesh and Blood

Strictly speaking, for a Criminal Investigation Team of this level.

The biggest case they could get would be a homicide or finding a few kilos of contraband.

But this time, it was indeed a big case, a shocking case!

And the suspects had already been caught.

A curious issue arose.

The suspects refused to admit their crimes.

The team reported to the district, the district reported to the municipal bureau, the municipal bureau reported to the provincial department, requesting a… polygraph!

Isn’t that impressive?

Such equipment isn’t usually allocated to low-level units.

Even if they have it, professionals are needed to operate it.

When a polygraph arrived along with two lie detection experts to interrogate the suspects.

The result was a 93% chance that the suspect was telling the truth!

Everyone was stunned.

You know.

In modern times, if you arrest the wrong person and convict an innocent one, a lot of people will be in trouble.

In the worst case, the entire city’s police system could be dismantled by higher authorities!

Facing such a case, whose head wouldn’t buzz?

Because the case was so big, involving three deaths, a family wiped out, their deaths extremely gruesome, the provincial department urged a swift resolution.

Not only did the entire Criminal Investigation Team get moving, but the entire city’s police system was mobilized.

If the case couldn’t be solved within the time limit, accountability would follow, and the provincial department would take over the case…

Xiao Yu’s luck brought him to help the Criminal Investigation Team solve a major case.

Being a trainee, given three days off was a rare treat.

Others weren’t so fortunate; it didn’t matter if it was day or night.

Everyone worked overtime, starting a 24-hour non-stop mode.

The case had to be solved within the time limit… it was a major case!

Yes, a major case!

Three lives lost, it qualified as a major serial case.

Ordinarily, such a case would at least require the municipal bureau to form a special task force, or even the provincial department to take over.

In a more extreme scenario… it would escalate to national security!

The unfortunate part was that the case occurred in the jurisdiction of the Criminal Investigation Team.

If they couldn’t solve it, the Criminal Investigation Team would be in trouble…

***

It was indeed a big job!

Looking at the case file before him, Xiao Yu’s mouth twitched.

Even in his previous life, he hadn’t handled many major cases.

What era is this?

There aren’t that many major cases; do you think this is a TV drama?

Barely a week into work, encountering two murders.

What kind of constitution do I have… Xiao Yu’s teeth ached!

Flipping open the file, the first page had large words.

Major Family Extermination and Dismemberment Case!

The victims were a young couple and an infant, a family of three.

They died horribly!

The family’s skin was completely flayed and nailed to the wall.

Their flesh was stripped from their bones, cut into pieces, and the bones ground into bone powder…

You think that’s it?

No.

The victims’ flesh and organs were nailed piece by piece to the wall skins.

The bone powder and blood were mixed into paint, covering the skins, flesh, and organs.

Finally, creating a painting of flesh and blood…

Seeing this, Xiao Yu was stunned.

Shocked by the killer’s cruelty and perversion.

Is this something a human could do?

How twisted must someone’s mind be to reach such a level of madness?

So, what’s the deal with the suspect the police caught?

Because this person was found sleeping at the crime scene.

Caught red-handed, why did the police identify him as the killer?

First, the suspect was at the brutal crime scene.

Second, one of the victims, the female, was the suspect’s ex-girlfriend!

How dramatic, right?

According to police investigations.

The suspect’s ex-girlfriend broke up with him two years ago and got together with his brother.

Though not exactly cuckolded, such betrayal is hard for any man to bear.

Therefore, the police suspected the suspect had a motive.

Revenge!

But suspicion alone isn’t enough; solid evidence is needed.

What evidence did the police have?

At the time of the crime, the suspect received a text from his ex-girlfriend, went to her house.

Then, the family extermination and dismemberment case happened.

The police arrived at the scene, arresting the suspect who was asleep there.

Through fingerprints, DNA, the murder weapon, text messages, and the motive.

A complete chain of evidence was established.

The suspect was pinned as the murder suspect…

Because the case was so big, the police were cautious. With the suspect vehemently denying the crime.

They requested a polygraph from higher authorities.

The result was clear…

According to the polygraph, the suspect was likely telling the truth.

Especially regarding the crime details, of which he claimed complete ignorance.

The suspect even said he went to his ex-girlfriend’s house, suddenly fell asleep, and woke up to find the police arresting him…

Trouble!

Putting down the file, Xiao Yu squinted his eyes.

Yes, it was indeed trouble.

If the suspect didn’t commit the crime, there was only one possibility.

Someone framed the suspect, and the real killer was still at large, unknown.

But according to the police investigation, through the community’s surveillance footage and hallway cameras.

During the time the victims were killed, only the suspect appeared on the surveillance.

He was seen at the victims’ door, with no one else around.

This is impossible… Xiao Yu was shocked.

How could it be?!
