The Side Character's Hidden Boss!
Chapter 301 - School Bullying
Habit was a scary thing. Si Lin sighed. How could she forget that Mo Li was now a suspect?
Xiao Rui glanced at Si Lin and said, “Go and scour the informants. See if anyone has purchased a large amount of ketamine recently.”
“Yes, boss!” Si Lin didn’t say anything else. She hurried to investigate.
“Could this be related to Flower Appraisal who photoshopped the death portrait of you and boss?” Kang Zhi looked at Mo Li. He had heard about the incident on the Goddess of the Sea. Mo Li was rumored to be on the ship. She was probably targeted by Flower Appraisal.
“No.” Mo Li rejected that idea. Even though she had no idea what Flower Appraisal’s goal was, based on their habits, everything they did would have the colors of the religious and occult.
But based on the condition of this case, it shouldn’t have to do with any of that.
Xiao Rui asked, “Is the incident on the Goddess of the Sea related to Flower Appraisal?”
“Mo Li, did you know how anxious our boss was when he found out about the connection between Huan Yu and the Goddess of the Sea?” Kang Zhi said proudly, not realizing that the face of his boss had already darkened.
“Speaking of, I’ve dug deeper into Flower Appraisal. Apparently, it is a type of Guan Luo Yin, a Chinese soul-summoning ritual. Do you think there is really such thing in the world?”
Xiao Rui had also done his secret investigation. Flower Appraisal was indeed a kind of soul-summoning ritual. This type of ritual was prevalent during the late Ming Dynasty. The ritual is said to bring the living soul to the nether world for a spiritual journey. During this journey, the living could interact and speak with their dead families and friends. The living could also see their destiny and fate. However, Xiao Rui personally didn’t believe in such things.
“I don’t know.” Mo Li answered honestly. She didn’t know much about these religious cultures. In any case, Flower Appraisal was using these things to incite people into committing crimes.
Xiao Rui felt the whole thing was strange. He believed Flower Appraisal might even be traced back to the Manchurian. It was worth noting that while Xiao Rui did the research on Guan Luo Yin, he saw an interesting article. It was suspected that the White Lotus Cult employed this ritual to brainwash its disciples. However, there was no telling if the information was true or not.
Until now, Xiao Rui was still confused about the death portrait they had received. Why would Flower Appraisal photoshop a death portrait of him and Mo Li?
Mo Li looked at the file before Xiao Rui and she grabbed it. Xiao Rui was caught off guard and didn’t have the time to stop her.
“Photo 5-10, there is clear blunt force trauma on the left side of the victim’s head. She has been hit more than once. Even though it didn’t cause bleeding on the surface, it did cause the skull to sink, resulting in a compression fracture. If I’m not mistaken, this would have caused the blood vessels in her right brain hemisphere to burst. This could be the cause of death, other than ketamine. Did you guys find any possible murder weapon at the crime scene?”
“Of course not! If we did, the weapon would be sent to the forensics department to be checked for fingerprints already!” Kang Zhi sighed.
“And look at Photo 11-15. There are many bruises on the victim’s face and back. The bruises on the face are caused by pinching. But the bruises on the back… they are in the shape of a grid, and they vary in depth.”
Mo Li looked at a few more pictures. She couldn’t tell what could have caused such distinct bruises.
“Could they be caused by barbed wire?” Xiao Rui understood Mo Li. The victim was probably pressed against a grid-shaped object before she died or she was hit by an object with such a unique shape on her back.
Mo Li thought about it and shook her head. Even though barbed wire would have a grid shape, most wire nets would be twisted out of shape when pressed against the weight of a human. Furthermore, technology nowadays was good enough that most barbed wires weren’t that cutting anymore. Their surfaces had been smoothed out. Therefore, the wounds on Deng Lin didn’t appear to be made by barbed wire.
“In other words, if we can find a place with both such grids and a blunt weapon, we’ll find the first crime scene?” Kang Zhi clapped, happy for the progress in the case.
While they were searching for the murderer, Mo Li’s school bullying incident had caused another huge uproar on the internet.
Both Huan Yu and the Mo Family became targets of criticism.
“We demand an explanation from Huan Yu! Why are your artists all of such low quality?”
“This is not the first time Mo Li is said to do something like this!”
“The Mo Family doesn’t even know how to educate their children!”
