14: Chapter 14 He's got something wrong with his head.

Lin Xiao almost couldn't hold back and threw up.

He took two steps back and wanted to call The Police.

Unexpectedly, Lin Baixuan's voice came from behind him.

"Just stand there and don't move. Wait for me to check the situation first."

"Second Sister? Why are you here?"

Lin Xiao was also very surprised that Lin Baixuan appeared here.

Lin Baixuan couldn't bother to explain. She took out her gloves and mask from her bag, put them on, and walked toward the black plastic bags.

"Hey, you guys, stop eating. That meat might be poisonous. Move away quickly!"

Lin Xiao waved his hand at the stray cats.

The stray cats could understand him. After hesitating repeatedly, they still spat out the meat in their mouths and ran to the side, looking unwilling and reluctant.

Lin Baixuan was once again surprised by Lin Xiao's ability to communicate with cats.

Once she finished dealing with the matter at hand, she would definitely have to ask how he managed to do that.

Lin Baixuan walked to the plastic bags and carefully untied one of them.

She rummaged through it gently and picked out a few bones.

Looking at these bones, her expression turned very grim.

"It really is human! Call The Police!"

As she spoke, Lin Baixuan picked up a piece of minced meat casually, her expression very serious.

Lin Xiao watched from behind, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

It wasn't just because of the discovery of the dismembered body, but more because he saw Lin Baixuan holding a piece of human flesh as calmly as if she were holding a piece of chicken, duck, or fish.

[Second Sister is way too bold!]

[It's a good thing her original career choice was changed, and she didn't become an andrologist. Otherwise, I don't even dare to imagine it. If she looked at... with that kind of gaze...]

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao silently looked down at his crotch and shrank his neck back.

...

About ten minutes later, The Police arrived at the scene.

Technical personnel investigated the scene, and Lin Xiao and Lin Baixuan were taken aside for questioning.

Lin Xiao had already communicated with those stray cats earlier.

Regarding the time the body was dumped and the appearance of the dumper, he described them as detailed as possible.

"At 2:30 this morning, the dumper was about this tall, had a beard, a somewhat chubby build, and wore glasses..."

The Police Officer glanced at Lin Xiao suspiciously, not knowing why he understood the dumper so clearly.

He immediately ordered his subordinates to check the nearby surveillance footage.

Unexpectedly, during the time Lin Xiao mentioned, they actually saw someone similar to his description.

After investigation, that person was indeed someone close to the deceased.

"How did you know?"

"The stray cats told me."

"..."

Lin Xiao said bluntly.

But The Police Officer didn't believe it at all.

Lin Baixuan waved awkwardly at The Police Officer, signaling to go aside to talk.

The Police Officer nodded silently and walked to a place where no one was around.

Lin Xiao looked over curiously and saw Lin Baixuan seemingly explaining something, pointing at her own head from time to time.

The Police Officer had a look of half-belief and half-doubt.

After the two came out, The Police Officer waved his hand. "Alright, leave your phone numbers and identification information. You can wait nearby for a while; we might need to record a detailed statement later."

"No problem."

Lin Xiao naturally wouldn't mind.

He walked with Lin Baixuan outside the cordon and found a park bench to sit on.

Only then did he ask curiously, "Second Sister, what did you just tell The Police? How did they let us go so easily?"

"I said you have a mental problem."

"..."

Lin Xiao stiffly twitched the corner of his mouth.

Second Sister was still as straightforward as ever.

During the day, the park was full of old men and women exercising. The news about the dismembered body was quickly spread by them.

Some reporters had already started live broadcasts here, vying to report on the situation.

Seeing those two familiar figures on the news live broadcast, Su Xiumei immediately called Lin Baixuan.

"Mom, we are fine, we just happened to pass by... Huh? No need, no need to come over."

Lin Baixuan tried her best to stop her, but within twenty minutes, the Su Family car stopped at the park entrance.

Not only Su Xiumei, but even Lin Qingshan and Lin Yu had come.

Lin Qingshan was still wearing a suit, with sweat on his forehead; one look and you could tell he had just rushed over from the company.

Seeing his son and daughter were safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"A-Xiao, Baixuan, were you frightened?"

Su Xiumei sat beside Lin Baixuan and grabbed her hand.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but complain internally.

Given Second Sister's personality, it was impossible for her to be frightened.

However, it was best not to let Su Xiumei know that Lin Baixuan's hands had just touched the dismembered body; otherwise, she would probably be the one truly frightened.

"Sigh, why are we so unlucky to encounter such a thing out of the blue!"

Lin Qingshan frowned and looked inside the cordon a few times. "What kind of murder and dismemberment case... it's something ordinary people might not encounter in a lifetime, yet you two encountered it."

Lin Yu curled his lips and said timely: "I heard there was a mental patient wielding a knife at the Hospital where Second Sister works this afternoon. Encountering so many dangerous things in one day, I don't know who is actually unlucky."

As he spoke, he also glanced at Lin Xiao with a meaningful look.

Lin Xiao retorted: "Encountering a mental patient is indeed unlucky, but discovering a body isn't necessarily a bad thing. Only by discovering the body early can we help The Police find the real culprit as soon as possible."

This righteous statement made Lin Yu very unhappy, and he almost blurted out: "It would be good enough if you aren't treated as the real culprit!"

"Xiao Yu! Stop talking nonsense!"

Lin Qingshan glanced at the reporters nearby who were still live-streaming and scolded, "These people love to stir up trouble the most. If your words are heard by others, it will cause big trouble!"

Lin Yu curled his lips indifferently. "What's the use of being afraid now? I see that The Police aren't letting him leave; they probably already treat him as the main suspect. It's just unfair to Second Sister, being implicated by him!"

"Xiao Yu!"

Lin Baixuan couldn't watch it anymore either.

"Second Sister, you are just too kind. Maybe it was he who committed the crime."

Lin Yu said this without any discretion at all.

Su Xiumei frowned slightly and looked at Lin Yu with displeasure.

Fortunately, the reporters' attention was all on the side of the cordon and didn't hear Lin Yu's nonsense here.

Otherwise, even a short-lived rumor would affect the Lin family to a certain extent.

Why hadn't she noticed before that this child, Lin Yu, was so brainless?

Just at this moment, Lin Baixuan's phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the unfamiliar number on it, she pressed the answer button.

"Lin Baixuan, I am Officer Zhang from earlier. You and your brother are still at the park, right?"

"Yes, right on the bench outside the cordon."

"Good, don't leave yet. I'm coming to find you now."

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu looked even more playful.

He looked at Lin Xiao and mocked, "Look, look, the Officer is coming to arrest you!"
