Officer! You Can Get a First-class Merit Awards Just by Eating Melon Seeds?

Chapter 39: The Story Behind the Human Oil NecklaceUpon hearing this, the young man fell into deep thought.

He then looked up and asked curiously, ”Officer, what is human fat?”

It wasn’t just him who didn’t know; Wang Meng, standing behind him, was also unclear.

”You can understand it as human body fat. We are investigating a case where the fat inside the deceased’s body was extracted by the killer.”

”I understand. Let me think.”

For a moment, the room was exceptionally quiet.

Only the sound of everyone’s breathing remained.

After quite a while, an exclamation of pleasant surprise came from his mouth.

”I remember now, I remember!”

He quickly looked at Chen Mo, his tone very urgent.

It was evident that this was a longing for freedom.

”Oh? Tell me about it.”

Chen Mo put down the book in his hand, his gaze falling upon him.

”Necklace, human fat, nightmares—it sounds very similar to a story I once heard.”

”But the content of the story is different; only the human body fat is the same.”

As the young man spoke, he began to organize his thoughts, preparing to recount the story he had once heard.

But seeing his posture, it was clear the story was long, so he signaled him to make it short.

”I once heard a similar story from the older generation. The general gist was that during a war-torn era, people couldn’t get enough to eat, and if they got sick, there was no medicine.”

”A few refugees were lying in the snow, quietly waiting to die, when someone came along, set up a stove, poured in human fat, and threw personal items like rings, earrings, and bracelets into it. After fishing them out and putting them on the sick people, their illnesses miraculously recovered.”

After finishing, he looked at Chen Mo with a face full of anticipation, hoping to hear the word ”useful.”

That way, it could count towards his assessment, which would be very helpful for a sentence reduction.

”So, the meaning of this story is that accessories like these, after being soaked in human fat, are equivalent to possessing the magic to cure illnesses?”

The young man nodded repeatedly, then added, ”When boiling accessories in human fat, one also needs to pay attention to the time, temperature, and such. I hope this helps you.”

Chen Mo took a deep breath.

With this, Li Sen’s motive for the crime was basically confirmed.

Because he frequently had nightmares and had heard this kind of story from somewhere, and being a superstitious person himself, he had his subordinates scout for candidates and then extract fat and kill them.

Actually, it’s quite ridiculous.

Just because of a nightmare, three innocent young girls lost their lives because of him.

Ironic!

Since this guy believes so much in those metaphysical things.

Then let’s wait until the day he faces the firing squad to see if the things he believes in will save him!

”Your answer is very helpful to me. Thank you.”

Upon leaving, he fulfilled what the young man had been longing to hear him say.

”Thank you, thank you.”

Long Hao chatted with Wang Meng for a while longer, and then the two of them came out.

”You didn’t wait too anxiously, did you?” Long Hao asked as soon as he came out.

”Asking someone for help and then just walking away is indeed not appropriate.”

Although the wait was indeed a bit long, he still understood this bit of social etiquette.

In Long Hao’s eyes, he was just 22 years old and fresh out of society, but counting his past life’s age, he was definitely older than him.

”That’s good. Brother Wang is just too enthusiastic. In the future, if anyone around you gets locked up in here, you can ask him to help take care of them.”

Chen Mo nodded; this was clearly an introduction to connections.

Relationships are things that aren’t important when you don’t need them, but when you do, you must have them.

As the two chatted, the police car drove back to the police station.

Xiao Zhang ran out hurriedly from inside.

”Brother Mo, the investigation into Li Sen’s medical team that you asked for has results.”

”There are eight people in total, and their files are all in the conference room.”

The three of them walked towards the conference room.

Looking at Xiao Zhang, who was gazing at him eagerly.

Chen Mo thought to himself, why hadn’t he noticed before that Xiao Zhang was so curious?

He could totally be recruited into his own organization.

Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment.

”I’ve found the answer: boil human fat, put various accessories inside to boil, and after taking them out and wearing them, they can cure illnesses.”

Xiao Zhang: ?!!

Is that real?

So outrageous?

”So Li Sen killed three people in a row and extracted human fat just to cure his nightmares!?”

After saying this, he quickly covered his mouth, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no one else around.

But the anger in his heart couldn’t help but well up.

He simply doesn’t treat other people’s lives as lives.

Such a person deserves to die!

”Yes, so we must bring him to justice.”

”Those who have no fear for the lives of the people should all go to hell.”

Chen Mo said coldly.

Three victims have died; it sounds like nothing.

But what if it were someone around you?

An older sister or a younger sister?

If he had transmigrated as just an ordinary person, is it not possible that similar things could happen to him?

From the perspective of a police officer, he must catch Li Sen.

From the perspective of simple human emotions, this person deserves to die.

”Well said!”

Long Hao applauded the two for their hatred of evil.

The three of them walked into the conference room.

”Li Sen’s private medical team consists of eight people in total: a team leader, a deputy leader, and six members.”

”Currently, the files and current locations of everyone have been found, and we can arrest them at any time.”

After finishing, Xiao Zhang looked eager to act.

He couldn’t wait to set off and catch these people.

”Catching people is easy, but interrogation alone won’t get us the evidence.”

”Do you think they’ve only done this one dirty job? They won’t talk easily.”

It’s enough that their whereabouts are known; we can’t arrest them yet.

Even if we do arrest them, we have to wait until he finds the evidence first.

”Ha, I thought about it too simply; I thought you had a way, Brother Mo.”

Xiao Zhang looked embarrassed.

This choked Chen Mo for a moment, but he wasn’t unhappy at all.

It’s likely that Xiao Zhang had imagined him to be too amazing, which is why he had this thought.

A good thing.

This shows that he holds a high position in his heart.

”What we are currently missing is evidence. The killer is Li Sen, and the ones extracting the human fat are those doctors. Do you have any ideas on how to get evidence?”

As Chen Mo spoke, he looked at the two of them.

But as soon as his gaze fell on them, both of them looked away.

With an expression of ”Don’t ask me, I don’t know either.”

In previous cases, evidence was always found through the crime scene.

In this case, nothing was left at the scene.

It is too difficult to find substantive evidence linking the doctors and Li Sen.

It’s a classic case of knowing who the killer is but having no evidence to make an arrest.

”You two...”

Chen Mo’s mouth twitched.

It’s not their fault; even he couldn’t think of any good solutions at the beginning.

”The only evidence of their crime that can currently be confirmed is the human fat of the deceased!”

”If we can find it in the studio, then we will have the evidence.”

But this approach is not foolproof.

Taking people directly into Li Sen’s private medical studio for a surprise inspection—if we find it, of course, everyone is happy, but if we don’t, it will inevitably raise alarm, and this case can be directly listed as a cold case.

Long Hao and Xiao Zhang also understood this, and they both looked troubled.

They didn’t know what to say at this moment.

They didn’t know what to do; anything said at this time would be nonsense, but saying nothing would make them seem useless.

”Suddenly I’m a bit thirsty. Chen Mo, do you want a drink? I’ll pour you a cup too.”

Long Hao didn’t even wait for Chen Mo to agree, and went to get some water on his own.

This maneuver is enough for Xiao Zhang to learn for a few years.

He hurriedly looked around the conference room.

”Brother Mo, if you don’t need this computer, I’m going to turn it off.”
