Chapter 411: Chapter 411: Human Remnants
Lin Xiaoyan saw He Qi’an sitting on the bed and immediately walked over to pull him up.
"Isn’t it dirty for you to just sit there!"
Lin Xiaoyan glared at He Qi’an. Ever since she entered the room, she smelled a peculiar odor.
He Qi’an glanced at the bedsheet and immediately understood.
"Don’t worry, they provide disposable sheets here!"
He Qi’an picked up a disposable sheet set from the table beside him and said.
"Stop!"
Lin Xiaoyan immediately stopped He Qi’an, "Don’t bother, let’s just leave."
"What’s wrong?" He Qi’an looked at Lin Xiaoyan.
Lin Xiaoyan crossed her arms, "Do you think this place is safe?"
He Qi’an paused for a moment, as if he thought of something, and looked around the room.
"Are you afraid there’s surveillance here?"
He Qi’an said with a smile, then took a tool from his pocket and started inspecting the room.
Lin Xiaoyan watched He Qi’an’s actions, completely speechless.
"You came so well-prepared, did you plan on coming here all along?"
A slight smile tugged at He Qi’an’s lips when he noticed something unusual at the position of an inconspicuous screw on the curtain rod. His eyes flickered.
"Yanyan, get me a chair."
Lin Xiaoyan was surprised to see where He Qi’an was shining the light, and her sharp eyes spotted a pinhole camera.
Lin Xiaoyan: !!!
She immediately moved the chair from beside the door over.
He Qi’an stepped onto it, took a marker from his pocket, and drew a circle there.
Then, to Lin Xiaoyan’s shock, He Qi’an found five more places.
Lin Xiaoyan: .....
After finishing his inspection, He Qi’an took out his phone and made a call.
"Come on up."
Lin Xiaoyan looked at He Qi’an: ???
"You’re here to investigate a case!" Lin Xiaoyan realized suddenly.
He Qi’an smiled, "No, you just mentioned wanting to watch a movie, and it suddenly reminded me of the case, so I came to take a look."
After hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan glared at He Qi’an.
"Why didn’t you say so earlier!"
After that, Lin Xiaoyan walked to the bed, frowning deeply as she looked at it.
"There’s a smell here. I noticed it as soon as I walked in. It’s very unpleasant."
He Qi’an walked over and smelled it; the strong perfume in the room masked many other odors.
Besides the strong perfume, there was a damp, rotting smell.
And a slight stench as well.
Lin Xiaoyan didn’t want to touch the sheets on this bed; she just felt they were very dirty.
He Qi’an took some gloves from his jacket, and Lin Xiaoyan’s eyes widened; she really wondered how many things He Qi’an had in his jacket.
He Qi’an gently lifted the sheet.
Underneath was a spring mattress, very soft.
When the mattress was exposed, Lin Xiaoyan felt the smell grew stronger, and she couldn’t help covering her nose and stepping back a few steps.
Noticing Lin Xiaoyan’s actions, He Qi’an’s gaze drifted toward the mattress.
He lifted the mattress, and suddenly, he stopped.
The weight of the mattress... was off.
He Qi’an gently set the mattress back down and pressed his hand against it.
As He Qi’an pressed the middle area, Lin Xiaoyan suddenly saw a reflection.
She immediately pulled He Qi’an back.
He Qi’an, caught off guard, stumbled as he was pulled; he never expected Yanyan to have such strength!
"Boss, we’re here!"
Meanwhile, Zhang Ming and the others arrived.
"Xiao Lin, you’re here too!"
When Zhang Ming and Li He entered, they saw Lin Xiaoyan and greeted her.
Lin Xiaoyan was busy "watching" the scene, feeling surprised inside.
After "watching" those scenes, Lin Xiaoyan’s face was full of shock.
She glanced at He Qi’an and then at the other police officers, unable to suppress her surprise.
At the same time, she wanted to confirm something.
"Officer Zhang, long time no see."
Lin Xiaoyan said, walking to Zhang Ming’s side and patting his arm.
Seeing Lin Xiaoyan’s actions, everyone stood still, looking at Lin Xiaoyan.
They all knew about Lin Xiaoyan’s superpower. To them, Xiao Lin avoiding touching others was a given; if she did touch someone...
They kept their eyes on Lin Xiaoyan.
Lin Xiaoyan went "watching" the scenes she had just seen, but from a different perspective this time.
Her face turned serious as she looked at Li He on the side and said, "Officer Li, long time no see." Saying this, she patted Li He on the shoulder, too.
Everyone present became more convinced of their thoughts, standing completely still in their spots.
Then, Lin Xiaoyan patted everyone’s arm, her eyes flashing with complex emotions.
She looked at the bed in the center of the room and pointed at the mattress, "There are fragments inside that."
"And in other rooms too."
Everyone: !!!
He Qi’an looked towards the mattress, and Ning Xuan immediately went downstairs to buy a small knife.
"Get all the people from the bureau here, and the forensics team too."
He Qi’an calmly instructed, "Investigate who owns this theater, and also..."
Ning Xuan returned, having bought several small knives and scissors.
He Qi’an took one and carefully cut open the mattress in the room.
Upon cutting open one corner, He Qi’an found a layer of film inside the mattress.
Others continued cutting carefully as well.
After they cut through the entire top half of the mattress, exposing what was inside.
Lin Xiaoyan looked once and stopped looking again because she had already "watched" it multiple times.
All the police officers gathered around, seeing the white film inside the mattress.
He Qi’an carefully cut through the film, and then...
Everyone saw fragments of various people!
"Ugh!"
Zhang Ming was the first to gag; he’d only been on the job for less than a year, and the sight of so many fragmented pieces overwhelmed him.
The others desperately held back, taking photos and making notes.
He Qi’an wiped his hands and called out to Zhang Ming to take down the surveillance cameras in the room.
"Holy shit! So many!!!"
Zhang Ming saw how the captain noted it well; there were six cameras in just one room!
Thinking quickly, Zhang Ming got excited, "Boss, could these cameras have recorded the crime?"
He Qi’an carefully took down the cameras, "Don’t know, quickly take them down and let the tech team analyze them."
Zhang Ming: "Oh, got it, captain!"
Before long, Captain Ma arrived with a crew.
"Xiao Lin, you’re here too!"
Captain Ma was a bit surprised to see Lin Xiaoyan and greeted her with a smile.
Lin Xiaoyan nodded, "Captain Ma, long time no see."
Captain Ma: "Yes, how have you been? Is your health better now?"
Lin Xiaoyan: "I’m better now, thank you for your concern, Captain Ma."
...
It wasn’t until 2:30 in the afternoon that He Qi’an came out.
Lin Xiaoyan had been waiting in the car the whole time, and she had ordered takeout for everyone at noon.
"Yanyan, I’m sorry."
He Qi’an got into the car, apologetically looking at his girlfriend.
Lin Xiaoyan put away her phone and shook her head, "It’s alright, will it be okay for you to leave like this?"
He Qi’an: "It’s fine, Captain Ma is there."
