New book in soft pink seeks support, collection, and recommendations! This week, I gave a panty push, but the effect wasn't great, and it didn't help much with collections and recommendations. So, it all depends on everyone. I sincerely ask everyone to give a few more recommendations, so I have a chance to show up on the charts. I bow in gratitude!
***************
Seeing Xie's indignant expression and recalling how Captain Wang treated the two of them without any courtesy, Li Xiangdong knew there must be a story behind it. It seems that even the Criminal Investigation Team is not peaceful. However, it doesn't matter; doing one's own job well is the most important thing.
"Let's go upstairs and take a look."
Xie is a very rational person. It looks like Team One will also be involved in this case, so the crime scene must be protected. Xie knows the character of the people in Team One all too well. Given their captain's character, if he can't handle it himself, he won't let others have it easy either. So, they are definitely capable of quietly tampering with the scene.
Xie quickly left the room, and Li Xiangdong closely followed. They happened to meet An Jiaoning, who had just finished vomiting outside. Although her face was pale, there was a hint of stubbornness in her eyes.
Li Xiangdong was about to say something to comfort her, but seeing her eyes, he swallowed his words. "How are you holding up? Can you manage?"
An Jiaoning nodded vigorously, and Li Xiangdong smiled at her. "Alright, let's go."
The three of them turned and went upstairs. However, after just two flights of stairs, Xie suddenly cursed and ran up quickly. Li Xiangdong and An Jiaoning, not knowing what was happening, could only follow quickly.
When they reached the third floor, there were two large rooms facing south. One of them was the main bedroom of Lu Hailong and his wife, and the other was probably for their child. The main bedroom was the second crime scene.
When the three of them arrived at the door, they saw the main bedroom in chaos. There were about seven or eight people inside, with two of them taking photos of the scene, and the others collecting evidence in a chaotic manner. It seemed that these two groups were more focused on competing with each other, and some of them were not even working diligently.
Seeing the situation inside, Xie was furious. "Shao Wei, how are you managing this scene? How did so many irrelevant people get in?"
Shao Wei, who was in charge of the second scene on the third floor, was the one who whistled the loudest when An Jiaoning reported. He was 1.8 meters tall, weighed 200 pounds, and had a square build, even his head was square.
Although he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, for some reason, Li Xiangdong didn't like him from the moment he saw him.
When Xie shouted at him, instead of reflecting on his poor work, Shao Wei stiffened his neck. "It was Captain Wang from Team One who sent them. What can I do?"
Xie was so angry at his irresponsible words that he lunged forward, wanting to punch him. Team One and Team Two had been at odds more than once. In the past, Team One had even acted as a troublemaker, not wanting Team Two to solve the case if they couldn't solve it themselves.
Hiding evidence, tampering with the scene, and obstructing the investigation under the guise of helping—these were not one-time occurrences. This had made everyone in Team Two very angry, and Captain Wei Zhengming had even slammed the table a few times with Wang Liming over these issues.
However, when Team One acted, they were very secretive. Even though Wei Zhengming knew they were just causing trouble, he couldn't provide evidence, so the messy disputes went all the way to Jingnan, but nothing came of it.
Since then, Team Two has been particularly cautious about confidentiality and has not allowed Team One to interfere. They usually seal off the scene tightly when they arrive.
But this time, Shao Wei, knowing the character of the people from Team One, not only didn't stand up for his teammates but also deliberately let these people in. This revealed a lot.
Li Xiangdong's gaze towards Shao Wei had already changed, and Xie was so angry that he wanted to punch Shao Wei, but Li Xiangdong held him back.
"Watch your image."
Li Xiangdong whispered in Xie's ear, and Xie calmed down. There were people from Team One in the room watching, and an internal conflict would only benefit them.
Xie, with a cold face, ignored Shao Wei and turned to enter the room. The room was crowded with people from Team One and Team Two, and the 40-square-meter room was in chaos.
There were obvious signs of a struggle in the room, and it seemed that the resistance was much stronger than in the bedroom on the second floor.
The homeowner, Lu Hailong, was lying naked on the ground with multiple knife wounds. His wife was also lying naked on the bed, dead from multiple knife wounds.
The floor, like on the second floor, was covered with coagulated blood. However, due to the many people entering and exiting to collect evidence, many traces had been destroyed, and even the two bodies had been moved.
Seeing this, Xie was so angry that his vision turned black. It seemed that Shao Wei was indeed the mole Captain Wang Liming had sent, just as the captain had guessed.
When An Jiaoning saw the naked couple, her cheeks turned red. As a girl, even though they were corpses, she still felt somewhat embarrassed.
But what happened next was even more shocking and disgusting. Li Xiangdong actually went to the male victim, moved his penis with his hand, and even though he was wearing gloves, the scene made An Jiaoning feel extremely uncomfortable.
What was even more disgusting was that he then brought the hand that had touched the penis to his nose and sniffed it. An Jiaoning felt her hair stand on end.
Xie, who had been standing next to her, trembling with anger, now looked at Li Xiangdong with glowing eyes. This kid was indeed skilled. In such a chaotic scene, he could remain so calm. This kid was indeed the promising talent the captain had mentioned.
Li Xiangdong squatted in front of the male victim, examined his arms, and found defensive wounds on the outer side of his forearms. He then looked at Lu Hailong's physical appearance: 1.8 meters tall, over 200 pounds, multiple knife scars, tattoos, a fleshy lump on his head, and a shaved head. Just from these observations, Li Xiangdong knew that Lu Hailong was definitely a gangster.
He then turned the man's right hand over and felt the calluses on his palm, which indicated frequent use of a knife.
Based on these observations, Li Xiangdong could almost determine the man's background, but his frown deepened.
Lu Hailong's fatal wound was a deep stab to the chest, which pierced his heart, causing a large amount of blood to gush out. Li Xiangdong reached out and touched the blood on Lu Hailong's chest, then brought it to his nose and sniffed it.
