Chapter 791: Sacrifice the murderous female devil

Zhou Mengyao was surprised to see her mother was intact and could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, but she still asked nervously: "Mom, who is so cruel to want to harm you with sulfuric acid?"

Zhuang Jingxue's fingers holding the tissue suddenly tightened, and for a moment she didn't know how to answer. Her eyes dodged and fell on the floor. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Lin Lang.

"It's Doctor Xu Wenkang from my master's wife's department." Lin Lang took a half step forward to rescue my master's wife Zhuang Jingxue.

After hearing this, Zhou Mengyao looked at Lin Lang and asked in confusion: "Doctor Xu and my mother have no grudges against each other, so why would he throw sulfuric acid on my mother?"

Lin Lang lied, "After the results of the professional title evaluation for the Department of Cardiac Surgery came out last month, Doctor Xu kept saying that the mistress deliberately suppressed his quota."

"Coupled with some unpleasant things that accumulated during work, Dr. Xu held a grudge against him."

"The main thing is that Dr. Xu was bitten and disfigured by his own dog a few days ago, and was even turned into a eunuch, which led to his extreme behavior of world-weariness. Today, he got industrial sulfuric acid from somewhere, splashed it on bodyguard Chen Yong, and broke into the ward of his master's wife to deliberately take revenge."

Zhuang Jingxue quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, yes. Doctor Xu is a very serious person at work, but he is a little petty. He was bitten by a dog at such a young age and became a eunuch. Maybe he didn't want to live anyway and wanted to take someone with him!"

Zhou Mengyao was terrified after hearing this and cried, "Mom, luckily you didn't have any accident, otherwise my dad just passed away unexpectedly. If you had any accident, how would your daughter live?"

Zhuang Jingxue wiped Zhou Mengyao's tears with a tissue and comforted her, "Silly child, isn't mom fine?"

"Luckily, Alang was visiting me in the ward. He stepped forward and kicked Doctor Xu without caring about his own safety. When Doctor Xu fell, the sulfuric acid spilled on his head. Otherwise, the person who died in the ward from the sulfuric acid would have been my mother."

Zhou Mengyao threw herself into Lin Lang's arms and said with tears of gratitude: "Husband, you saved my mother again, thank you!"

"Don't cry, my wife. It's not our Master's fate to die." Lin Lang hugged Zhou Mengyao back, his eyes meeting Mu Xueman's.

Mu Xueman hurriedly stepped forward, took out a few tissues from the tissue box, handed them to Zhuang Jingxue, and said with concern: "Aunt, I'm glad you're okay. As the old saying goes, those who survive a great disaster will have good fortune in the future. There will be no bad luck in the future."

Zhuang Jingxue took the tissue from Mu Xueman's hand and wiped her tears, then said with lingering fear: "Let me borrow your good words!"

Lin Lang gently stroked Zhou Mengyao's shoulders and comforted her, "Don't cry, my wife. Xu Wenkang brought this upon himself. He has died in the ward from the burns from the sulfuric acid he spilled. My master's wife is completely safe now."

Zhou Mengyao's emotions gradually stabilized in Lin Lang's arms. She wiped her tears and said, "Husband, I'm lucky you are here, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

At this moment, Wang Dayong followed the criminal police captain Zhou Xing and pushed open the wooden door of the doctor's duty room. The metal badge on the police hat glowed coldly under the ceiling light.

"We are from the Criminal Investigation Team, and we are here to take a statement from the victim." Zhou Xing took out his ID and shook it, his eyes scanning the people in the room.

Zhuang Jingxue replied with one word, "OK."

When Wang Dayong saw his high school classmates Lin Lang and Zhou Mengyao, he quickly asked, "Brother Lang, Mengyao, why are you here too?"

Zhou Mengyao sniffed and replied, "Dayong, you are the one who called the police. The victim is my mother. If it weren't for Lin Lang in the ward, my mother would have been splashed with sulfuric acid by Dr. Xu Wenkang from the cardiac surgery department of our hospital."

After hearing this, Wang Dayong looked at Lin Lang and asked, "Brother Lang, are you a witness?"

Lin Lang replied truthfully: "Yes, I stopped Xu Wenkang from throwing sulfuric acid in time."

After hearing this, Criminal Police Captain Zhou Xing instructed: "Dayong, take Mr. Lin to the next office to record his statement first. Because you are acquainted with the victim's family and the witness, in order to avoid suspicion, it is best to let other colleagues take Mr. Lin's statement.

"Okay, Captain Zhou."

"Mengyao, you and this young lady should step aside for the time being, and let your aunt do the investigation record alone."

“Brother Lang, come with me. I will find a separate room for you and let my colleague take a statement from you.”

"Okay, Dayong." Lin Lang followed his high school classmate Wang Dayong and slowly walked out of the doctor's duty office.

A cordon has been set up at the crime scene in the corridor, and hospital security is on site to maintain order. The patients' family members and bystanders who were watching the excitement have all been driven away by the police.

Forensic doctors and on-site investigators were busy taking photos and investigating the scene in an orderly manner.

"Xiao Li, come here, come here and record the statement of this witness." In order to avoid suspicion, Wang Dayong called a colleague over to record Lin Lang's statement.

Lin Lang cooperated with Criminal Police Officer Xiao Li and walked into a separate room to start recording his statement.

After Zhou Mengyao walked out of the doctor's office on duty, Mu Xueman gently tugged at her sleeve: "Mengyao, let's go to the stairwell to get some fresh air. It's too stuffy here."

"Okay." Zhou Mengyao and Mu Xueman had just walked to the fire exit when a female intern nurse with a ponytail suddenly came forward excitedly and exclaimed, "Zhou Mengyao!"

"Oh my god! You are actually the motorcycle goddess Zhou Mengyao. I really like listening to your singing of "Perfume is Poisonous". Can you sign an autograph for me?"

Soon after, several female trainee nurses came over and took out papers and pens from their pockets. They were all excited to see their idol goddess.

At this moment, Zhou Mengyao was in no mood to sign autographs for fans. She forced a smile and declined politely, "I am Zhou Mengyao, but I have something else to do..."

"You are my idol goddess, please give me an autograph!" The female trainee nurse with a ponytail stuffed the pen into Zhou Mengyao's hand.

Faced with the enthusiastic fans who loved her, Zhou Mengyao had no choice but to smile and sign autographs for them one by one.

After several trainee nurses received Zhou Mengyao's celebrity autograph, they all danced with excitement, and a burst of good-natured laughter broke out in the crowd.

At this time, a young nurse raised her hand and suggested: "Let's get a camera and take a photo with our idol goddess!"

"Okay, okay..." Several other young nurses echoed.

Seeing this, Mu Xueman immediately stepped aside to block Zhou Mengyao, and said with a smile: "I'm so sorry everyone, Mengyao has work arrangements next, so I really can't fulfill your wish to take a photo today."

"Thank you all for supporting Mengyao. I will definitely interact with you more when I have the chance in the future."

After saying that, Mu Xuelan gently pulled Zhou Mengyao's elbow and hurried down the stairs in her high heels.

When Zhou Mengyao turned around, she did not forget to look back and wave to her fans. The ends of her hair formed a gentle arc in the wind, and several young nurses called out to her reluctantly again.

After walking down the stairs, Mu Xueman said, "Mengyao, you are a public figure. If your aunt is splashed with sulfuric acid, it will easily make the news."

"Go wait in the car first. I'll go back and wait for my aunt to finish her statement with the police. Then I'll accompany her out of the hospital and go to the underground parking lot to find you."

After hearing this, Zhou Mengyao said, "Okay, I'll have to trouble you, Xueman."

Mu Xueman said carefully, "Let's not talk about this between us. You should call Zhou's house in advance and ask the kitchen to prepare some light meals for your aunt at noon. In particular, you should make a white fungus and lotus seed soup. Lotus seeds can soothe the mind and calm the nerves. It is suitable for people who are upset after being frightened."

"Xue Man, you really understand life, you are gentle and considerate. I don't understand what you said. It seems I need to learn more from you."

Mu Xueman smiled and said, "You are the daughter of a wealthy family. You have had servants serving you since you were a child. You have everything you want. It's normal that you don't understand these things!"

"Besides, you don't need to learn these. The Zhou family has servants. Why would a rich lady like you learn these?"

Zhou Mengyao smiled after hearing this, shook Mu Xueman's arm, and said coquettishly: "Xueman, tomorrow you accompany me to Jing'an Temple to burn incense, worship Buddha, and donate some incense money. How about we ask for some amulets for Lin Lang and his family?"

Mu Xueman replied readily, "Okay! Mengyao, your suggestion is good, so let's do it."

"OK, I'll go downstairs and wait for you and my mom in the underground parking lot. Call me if you need anything."

"Okay, see you later."

Mu Xuelan and Zhou Mengyao went upstairs and downstairs respectively, and then they separated.

At the same time, Criminal Police Captain Zhou Xing went to the hospital's monitoring dispatch room and checked the surveillance video of the corridor outside Zhuang Jingxue's ward in the inpatient department before the incident.

In the surveillance video, we can clearly see that the suspect Xu Wenkang, after failing to communicate with the bodyguard Chen Yong, suddenly unscrewed the lid of a glass thermos filled with sulfuric acid and poured it at the bodyguard Chen Yong. He then broke into the ward and intentionally committed a crime to injure Zhuang Jingxue.

Although the police do not yet know Xu Wenkang's motive for the crime, the surveillance video evidence can confirm Xu Wenkang's crime.

After copying and saving the surveillance video evidence, Zhou Xing returned to the crime scene.

After a brief communication with the forensic doctor, Zhou Xing basically determined the cause of Xu Wenkang's death. He was severely burned on the head and face by sulfuric acid, inhaled sulfuric acid vapor, and some sulfuric acid liquid choked into the trachea, causing swelling of the larynx to block the airway, leading to acute suffocation and death.

After comparing the confessions of Lin Lang and Zhuang Jingxue, it was found that both of their confessions were consistent with the course of the crime, thus ruling out the suspicion of homicide.

The only thing that confused Zhou Xing was Xu Wenkang's motive for the crime, because Zhuang Jingxue's confession did not mention any work conflicts or disagreements between the two.

So Xu Wenkang ordered his criminal police to first visit and interview the medical staff of the cardiac surgery department to find out whether Xu Wenke and Zhuang Jingxue had any work conflicts.

The meticulous Zhou Xing suspected that Xu Wenkang's hatred for Zhuang Jingxue might be due to love, so he ordered his criminal police to check whether Xu Wenkang and Zhuang Jingxue had any record of checking into a hotel.

Criminal police officer Wang Dayong came to the room where Lin Lang was being interviewed alone and said with a smile: "Brother Lang, thank you for your cooperation. Now that Xu Wenkang's crime has been confirmed, you and Vice President Zhuang can leave."

Lin Lang patted Wang Dayong on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Dayong. I have sent Secretary Gu to deliver the medicine for Auntie for the second half of the month."

"Brother Lang, my mother's condition has improved, but it's all thanks to you!"

"Dayong, there is no need to say thank you between us."

"I told you that I would help you get promoted and become the youngest police chief of Hai City. Here, after you catch this wanted female criminal, if you repeatedly make meritorious contributions and arrest major criminals this year, you will be promoted to deputy criminal police captain."

Wang Dayong opened the note Lin Lang had stuffed into his hand. On it was a woman's name and address. He couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Brother Lang, who is this Shirley?"

Lin Lang replied: "Shirley is the alias of Luo Rongzhi. In 1996, Luo Rongzhi and her boyfriend Fa Ziying killed a family of three in Nanchang, and then killed two more people in Wenzhou. Together with the crime in Hefei, they killed a total of seven people."

"Lao Rongzhi, who is currently wanted and has a bounty on her head, has fled to Longhai and is working as a hostess at the Love Nightclub under the alias Shirley. We can catch her with any precision."

Wang Dayong's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he clenched his fists in excitement and said, "Brother Lang, this is a major tip! How did you know this tip?"

Lin Lang lied, "I took a few clients to the Love Nightclub for a business dinner last night.

"One of the singing girls ordered by one of the clients, Shirley, is actually the alias of the female fugitive Lao Rongzhi. Because I saw a wanted poster with a bounty on Lao Rongzhi on the Internet, I recorded this tip-off and will use it to help you gain merit."

"Brother Lang, thank you so much!"

"Wait for my good news. After I capture the wanted criminal, Lao Rongzhi, I will definitely give you a month's salary and treat you to a good meal."

"Okay, I still have to send my master's wife out of the hospital and back to Zhou's house, so I'll leave now." Lin Lang said goodbye to Wang Dayong.

"Goodbye, Brother Lang." Wang Dayong respectfully saw Lin Lang off. Looking at the intelligence in his hand that could help him get merit and promotion, a smile broke out on his face.

It is worth mentioning that the femme fatale Luo Rongzhi was a murderous "female devil" who had been on the run for 20 years in real life. She was arrested in November 2019, and the Luo Rongzhi case caused a huge sensation on the entire Internet.

Unexpectedly, after she fled to the sea, she was reported by the time traveler Lin Lang and arrested in 2000, ending her sinful life ahead of schedule.
