Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter-Chapter 494 - 243: Cold Dead, Truth Revealed_2

My Eye of Sin can instantly strip away any disguise of the opponent. As long as their identity is confirmed, finding evidence to convict them is next.

Unexpectedly, we hit a brick wall as soon as we took action; the target is not in the office right now.

Not in the department, nor in the consultation room or the operating room...

"Strange, where could she have gone?"

Liao Xingyu shook his head helplessly, then looked over at Luo Fei, who seemed not in any rush.

"Old Luo, what’s on your mind?"

"Our investigation is not solely focused on this. Finding Chu Sihan is one thing, we also need to find another person."

"You mean... Ni Zhigang?"

"Yes."

Luo Fei fixed his gaze on the corridors inside the hospital; there’s still this key role yet to appear.

"Where do you think she would go with such an obvious target as Ni Zhigang?"

"Who cares! Anyway, they’re definitely still inside this hospital."

"Well said."

Luo Fei clapped his hands heavily.

"Ni Zhigang has been missing for five days, and each department or ward conducts routine inspections. If they’ve been checking daily during these five days, there’s no way he could stay hidden; he would have been found already."

"Therefore, he must be hidden in a place where no one would think to look."

"Is there a place that no one thinks of checking, is rarely inspected, and not easy to find?"

The two of them pondered, and soon their expressions changed.

Dread mixed with panic, something grave has happened—

Ni Zhigang might not just be missing; he may already be dead!

The two of them rushed towards the morgue in a flash and nearly knocked down a young nurse in their haste.

"Sorry, we’re police officers, and we need to inspect the area. Please assist us."

The young nurse was quite frightened by their urgency. What could be so terrifying? An investigation that extends to the morgue!

But she had no choice, so she led them in and started opening one cabinet after another.

"Check even those without tags! Yes, open every single one."

Liao Xingyu meticulously searched, one by one.

They compared the photos on their phones constantly.

Among them were some quite gruesome bodies, even the nurse couldn’t help but feel uneasy, but the two persisted regardless.

There were only two more rows of cabinets left, but still no answers.

Liao Xingyu’s hands started trembling at this point; if not here, they’d have to consider other potential burial places next.

Finally, as they pulled open the third cabinet from the bottom on the second-to-last row, both Luo Fei and Liao Xingyu froze.

Found him!

Finally found him!

Lying inside was none other than Ni Zhigang!

The mysterious man missing for five days, the eldest son of the Ni family who never showed himself.

Completely naked, several needle marks on his neck, but the death was shocking, eyes open wide, dying without closure.

Mouth agape, arms completely stretched, hands curled — signs of convulsion before death, with the lower body blackened, and bruised waist, eyes corners frozen to blood-red...

"Ah—"

The young nurse screamed and kneeled on the ground.

This was an untagged and unrecorded refrigerated body cabinet, how could there be a dead man inside?

Luo Fei quickly helped her up, as she was the only one with some medical knowledge present, asking her to conduct a preliminary autopsy.

Even though the nurse was quite scared, the presence of police officers slightly reassured her.

Gathering her courage, she moved closer, performed a brief examination, and the more she looked, the more wrong it seemed, then checked the facial details, including the eyes.

Suddenly, her voice became sharp.

"He... he was frozen to death alive..."

With that, Luo Fei and Liao Xingyu were stunned, unable to believe this was the cause of death.

"Look, the needle marks on his neck; must have been anesthetics injected directly, using a simple and brutal technique."

"A few injections would make someone sleep for a long time in the afternoon; even waking up, limb movements in the lower body would be hard to perform, so he could only lie there quietly."

Both shivered at her words.

Such a terrifying way to die!

Waking up only to see no signs of life, slowly feeling the moment of dying with wide-open eyes.

The body gradually stiffens under cold temperatures, eventually, hypothermia sets in, and complete loss of consciousness ensues.

"Look, the blackened lower limbs must result from poor blood circulation combined with extreme low temperatures, as the anesthetic dosage was quite high, likely administered two to three times...this way, he had to remain in such a state for long periods."

"Multiple anesthesia injections just to keep the victim conscious and feeling death closing in?"

For a moment, Luo Fei felt almost out of body.

Such crazy and twisted love!

Liao Xingyu grabbed the young nurse.

"Do you know Doctor Chu Sihan?"

"I do..."

The young nurse thought for a moment and answered earnestly.

"She is an externally hired expert here, with high expertise in anesthesia, her control during surgeries and dosage adjustment is extraordinary."

Upon recalling this, the nurse looked again at the needle marks on the neck and covered her mouth immediately.

Luo Fei and Liao Xingyu exchanged a glance. No doubt...

The truth finally comes to light!

All the clues and existing evidence are interwoven; Chu Sihan is the mastermind behind all of this.

If she possesses precise anesthetic techniques and can overpower an opponent quickly, it explains how Ni Zhiwei on the rooftop was thrown off.

"Let’s go, time to find the dean and apprehend her immediately, then..."

Luo Fei and Liao Xingyu couldn’t wait any longer, just about ready to head out when a crisp sound of a tray hitting the ground echoed nearby.

A tall woman stood at the doorway.

Her face was stunning, wearing a white coat, long hair cascading over her shoulders, eyes filled with gravity and terror.

At that realization, Luo Fei noticed unprecedented black mist above her head, sinister and ominous like a roaring demon.

There’s no need to think too hard; she is the real culprit they were after!

Chu Sihan!

Clearly, she came to the morgue to check things or prepare to handle the body, but she accidentally ran into them solving the case.

In the next moment, Chu Sihan fiercely kicked a bed frame towards them and then turned to flee.

"Stop!"

Luo Fei wasn’t going to let her go easily, his speed much faster than hers, leaping out in pursuit, only to be dumbfounded upon exiting.

Before him were two junctions, and two bends, with four passageways, completely subverting his understanding.

Oh right, this is a hospital! It’s her territory!

No, where else could she run? She must be heading to find a car to escape!

Luo Fei waved back, he and Liao Xingyu rushed out, splitting in two directions to intercept, one towards the back parking lot, the other forward, needing to intercept promptly.

The chase among the three brought chaos inside the hospital, the commotion unsettling the crowd and causing disruptions among the patients moving about.

Luo Fei had to weave through various gaps, saving time.

But after reaching the back parking lot, he found it empty. Miscalculated!

The front entrance!

No choice but to run back; to avoid wasting time, Luo Fei sprinted fiercely along the hospital’s outer walls, reaching his maximum speed.

Upon arriving at the front square, he found only Liao Xingyu lying on the ground.

"Old Liao, are you alright? Wake up!"

He pulled him up to see his face twisted in pain.

"She... she kicked my side... ah, ouch..."

"I couldn’t stop her, she got away."

Luo Fei sighed deeply, that was a close call.
