The Genius Female Forensic Pathologist, The Psychological Anatomist

Chapter 122

The investigation of the case quickly made progress.

Jiang Yun's assistant told them that Jiang Yun had installed many hidden cameras in the villa to monitor the work of the servants and prevent Lin Qianyan from being abused. These cameras were installed covertly, known only to the assistant and Jiang Yun.

The surveillance videos were uploaded to the cloud in real-time and could be viewed by logging into the account. Jiang Yun rarely watched these surveillance videos, and the assistant had almost forgotten the account password.

One of the hidden cameras captured the entire incident:

At 11:33, Jiang Yun walked over to the shelf. She wanted to pick up a toy from the floor but stepped on a glass marble and accidentally knocked over an antique vase on the shelf.

After regaining her balance, she intended to call the servant from the neighboring room to clean up, but after a few steps, she slipped on another marble and fell to the ground, hitting the back of her head on the broken vase pieces.

At this moment, Yan Yan saw Jiang Yun fall. He slowly walked over, ignoring her, and his first reaction was to pick up the glass marbles on the floor, about five or six of them, and put them in his pocket.

He kicked Jiang Yun's hand, and seeing no response, he took the fruit knife from the coffee table and violently stabbed it into Jiang Yun's chest.

Jiang Yun let out a painful cry.

Hearing her scream, Yan Yan revealed an excited smile. He stabbed her many more times, with blood continuously splattering onto his face.

Then he glanced at the camera on the bookshelf. He walked into the camera's range and suddenly changed his demeanor. He put on a panicked expression and deliberately performed in front of the camera before hiding in the cabinet of the bookshelf.

Jiang Yun looked in the direction he left, slowly losing consciousness, but she still managed to force a smile.

This surveillance video could prove that Yan Yan was the one who killed Jiang Yun.

After watching this, everyone felt chills down their spines. Yan Yan even had a smile on his face while killing his mother, and he deliberately performed in front of the camera. But he didn't know there was a hidden camera.

"Could Yan Yan have been in a hypnotized state when he killed?" Zhang speculated, "Otherwise, it's hard to explain his bizarre behavior."

Although they had found the killer, similar to the case at the welfare home, Yan Yan's actions were likely instigated by someone behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could an autistic person suddenly stab someone?

Fang Rui asked Sister Chen again, "Who has Yan Yan been in contact with recently?"

"Yan Yan rarely goes out. He doesn't have many friends. The only people he sees are just us."

"Doesn't he receive treatment?"

"He does have regular intervention therapy. There's a therapy room upstairs. Teacher Jiang comes every Monday and Thursday to give Yan Yan treatment."

"Are there no other therapists?"

"No! But Teacher Jiang occasionally brings assistants. The assistants are different each time, but they're all staff from her institution."

Fang Rui took away the surveillance videos from the villa. That person must have had close contact with Yan Yan, otherwise, they couldn't have controlled Yan Yan to kill. And that person had also been in contact with Yuan Yuan from "Star Home". The most likely suspect was still a therapist from Teacher Jiang's institution.

The entire second floor, except for Yan Yan's room, was therapy rooms. The decoration was almost a copy of Teacher Jiang's institution's setup.

Fang Rui and Zhang entered Yan Yan's room. The interior was very cozy, with stars and moons painted on the ceiling, light blue walls, and all furniture wrapped in foam to prevent Yan Yan from getting hurt.

Many drawings were scattered on the floor. Unlike Yuan Yuan's fairy tale style, Yan Yan's drawings looked creepy, mostly depicting mutilated human and animal bodies, such as a teddy bear with its eyes gouged out or a doll with its left leg severed. He liked black and red colors, often using these two colors to fill the background.

His drawings had no lines, composed of thick and chaotic color blocks, giving a strong sense of discomfort.

"Has Yan Yan's drawing style always been like this?" Zhang asked Sister Chen.

"Yes, Yan Yan likes to draw, but I think his drawings are strange. Teacher Jiang said it's normal, that it's a post-modern art style. She even said Yan Yan has artistic talent and could become an artist in the future."

Fang Rui collected all of Yan Yan's drawings and put them in evidence bags. They also looked through Yan Yan's drawers, which were also filled with drawings of the same dark style.

"Why are there photos of Mu Mian in his drawer?" Zhang exclaimed, holding up a photo.

The photo showed Mu Mian waiting for a car at the entrance, seemingly taken secretly. Two large red crosses were drawn heavily on the photo with an oil pastel, and on the back was scrawled in red: Kill her!

"Could his next target be Mu Forensic Doctor? He seems to particularly hate her," others chimed in.

Fang Rui put that photo into an evidence bag. He was a bit worried. Could the mastermind also hate Mu Mian? But Mu Mian didn't know them, why would they have such malice towards her?

Zhang found a cookie box under Yan Yan's bed. They opened it to find it full of torn-up drawings.

These drawings were completely different from Yan Yan's style. They were in a fairy tale style, with bright lines and pleasant color schemes.

Fang Rui casually flipped through the pieces of the drawings, his attention caught by a small whale. The shape and color of the whale were very similar to the one on the wall of "Star Home".

"Isn't this the whale from the welfare home?" Zhang asked, confused. "Has Lin Qianyan been to the welfare home? No, did he draw these? The style doesn't match."

At this moment, Chen Xue's phone call came in: "It's not good! Mu Mian is missing!"

Aliali: 67358283d72ede93494505dbAfter Mu Mian left the autopsy room, Chen Xue was worried and, estimating that Mu Mian should have arrived home by now, called Shen Xiyin to ask if Mu Mian had returned home. Shen Xiyin said no. They waited another hour, but Mu Mian still hadn't returned home. At this point, they realized something was wrong.

Chen Xue tried calling Mu Mian, but she didn't answer. Later, Chen Xue discovered that Mu Mian's phone was left on her office desk.

But Mu Mian was nowhere to be found.

"Yan Yan is tied up with restraints downstairs, he couldn't possibly harm Mu Mian. Could it be that the mastermind personally took action and kidnapped Mu Mian?" Zhang said anxiously, "Mu Mian is so unlucky!"

However, Fang Rui felt that perhaps Mu Mian hadn't gone missing at all.

Although Chen Xue was panicked, her mind was clear. She first went to the security room to check the surveillance footage and found that Mu Mian hadn't left the police station at all, not even this floor. The hallway surveillance showed that after Mu Mian entered the forensic office, she hadn't come out.

But Chen Xue had been in and out of the office many times, and she hadn't seen Mu Mian inside.

When Fang Rui returned, Chen Xue reported this to them.

"Could Mu Mian have some way to become invisible on the surveillance?" Chen Xue speculated, "Otherwise, how could she vanish into thin air?"

Fang Rui looked down at the file cabinet behind Mu Mian's desk and said to Chen Xue and Zhang, "You all go out first. I know where Mu Mian is."
