rlAJ0 rocking horses were placed on either side of the entrance, creaking back and forth in the wind and snow.

Amidst the soft rustling of the snow, the quiet night stirred an unsettling feeling in those who listened.

Ji Nanchen cautiously approached the entrance, his steps light as he walked up to the gate. He surveyed the courtyard and noticed that the night had deepened; the lights within the buildings had long been extinguished, leaving only the faint glow of two dim street lamps illuminating a small area in front. The snow’s reflection cast a blurry view of the courtyard’s buildings, and an eerie silence enveloped the entire residential complex.

Ji Nanchen retrieved his phone and opened the neighborhood map sent by the technicians. After confirming the suspect’s location, he turned to signal the team members behind him, gesturing for them to come forward for tactical arrangements.

But as he moved, his footing slipped, and he instinctively reached out to steady himself by grabbing onto one of the rocking horses nearby.

However, Lu Miao immediately spoke up. “Don’t touch.”

Ji Nanchen quickly withdrew his hand, stumbling slightly before regaining his balance. “What’s the matter?”

Lu Miao squinted as she glanced at the rocking horses still swaying at the entrance. “Have someone move those two things back.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Nanchen instantly grasped the situation and his expression turned extremely displeased. “Are you saying…”

Lu Miao nodded.

Ji Nanchen gritted his teeth. When it came to matters of expertise, he absolutely believed in Lu Miao unconditionally.

He signaled for someone to step forward. “Be careful. You two, move these things back to the car.”

One of the team members couldn’t understand and stepped forward to question, “Who is she? Why should we listen to her? If their kid wants toys, they can buy their own. The suspect is inside; they could escape at any moment. If she delays us and the suspect gets away, can she take responsibility for that?”

They had been specially selected from various police stations to form this elite team for the serial murder case. In this critical moment, why should they listen to a young girl?

Ji Nanchen inwardly cursed in frustration.

The ongoing case had left everyone on edge, and there was significant pressure from higher-ups. The team had been assembled from different divisions, and many hadn’t met Lu Miao before and were unaware of her and Gu Shizhan’s identities.

Before he could respond, Gu Shizhan’s face had already turned cold.

“She truly can’t bear that responsibility, so I kindly request that Captain Ji refrains from calling in the middle of the night to disturb people’s beauty sleep.”

Ji Nanchen felt in the wrong and addressed the group of officers, “Tonight, she’s in charge. If anyone refuses to obey orders, you’re welcome to leave the task force. ”

Although the questioning team member still harbored doubts, he didn’t dare voice them when he heard he might have to leave the task force.

After all, being able to participate in such a high-profile case wasn’t just a recognition of their skills; solving this case would also aid in their future promotions.

He seethed with frustration as he looked at the rocking horse that reached up to his thigh. He stepped forward, intending to bend down and lift it up.

However, he hadn’t anticipated that the rocking horse, which he thought wouldn’t be too heavy, would be unusually weighty. As he bent down, he strained his waist.

Simultaneously, the rocking horse in his hand became unstable and with a “thud,” it fell to the ground.

The plastic casing shattered instantly, revealing a large clump of dark, indistinct material that tumbled out and landed at his feet.

The team member bent over in puzzlement and reached out to pick through it. Among the jumbled mess of threads, a bulging eye, round and staring, protruded from the mass, fixatedly gazing at him.

In an instant, his scalp tingled, and he retreated several steps in fright, almost letting out a scream.

Fortunately, his professionalism kicked in, and he managed to clamp his mouth shut at the crucial moment.

Other team members behind him rushed forward upon seeing this, and someone took out their phone, turning on the flashlight.

Once they clearly saw the scene before them, they couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

Judging by the length of the hair, this appeared to be an adult female corpse.

To fit into the narrow rocking horse, the body and limbs of the female corpse had been folded into an extremely contorted shape.

Broken bone fragments pierced through the clothes, bloodstains soaked every inch of fabric, drying into a dark reddish hue that resembled a black, murky mass.

It was important to note that after death, blood within the body would start coagulating in ten minutes. The amount of blood that saturated the entire body couldn’t have been caused by minor injuries alone.

In other words, if the victim wasn’t intentionally bled before being murdered, then they were forcibly folded and stuffed inside while still alive.

Regardless of which scenario it was, the methods employed were extremely brutal and heinous!

There were two rocking horses here, and the other one…

Instantly, everyone turned their heads towards the other rocking horse on the opposite side of the entrance.

Everyone immediately turned to look at the rocking horse on the other side of the door.

Probably because they knew the truth, they looked at it again. In the snowstorm, the rocking horse swayed back and forth, making creaking sounds as if it was the cry of the two victims. It made people’s hair stand on end.

It had been snowing intermittently in Luo City for the past few days, and the temperature was very low. The corpses were almost frozen into ice cubes in the cold weather, and there was no decay or smell.

Thinking about how there were so many people coming in and out of the family compound every day, passing by the corpse, and perhaps some playful children climbing up the rocking horse to ride it…

Everyone’s hair stood on end.

No wonder Lu Miao had asked them to bring these two things back without explaining anything.

This was too insane!

However, the murderer’s arrogance was simply a provocation and contempt for the police!

For a moment, all the team members were furious. They wanted to rush in and bring the murderer to justice.

Ji Nanchen’s expression was not good either. He pointed at the two of them and ordered in a low voice,” You guys carry the other rocking horse into the car first. Call the forensic doctor to clean up the scene. The rest of you, follow me in to arrest him.”

Lu Miao interrupted him,” You all stay here. I’ll go in myself.”‘

Gu Shiyan and Ji Nanchen said in unison.

Lu Miao looked at the two of them strangely and explained,” There’s something wrong with this place. It’ll be dangerous for you to go in.””

By using corpses to guard the door, this person had already turned the entire family courtyard into his dojo. Perhaps everyone inside was already under his control.

Even if these police officers were elites, they were still ordinary people. If they rashly entered, they would be courting death.

“I know, but this is a police matter. I can’t let you go in alone and take the risk.”Ji Nanchen said.

Gu Shiyan naturally objected firmly.

Lu Miao was helpless. She thought about it and realized that these two were not ordinary people, so she could only agree to let the three of them go in together.

The team members who were not convinced by Lu Miao had all been convinced after the incident with the rocking horse. No one dared to question her decision anymore, and they all stayed outside obediently.

Ji Nanchen arranged for the other team members to guard the exits outside. Then, the three of them entered the neighborhood and headed straight for the building where the suspect was..
