"Captain Zhu, you've finally arrived! Come in and take a look. I've been a police officer for so many years, and I've never seen anything like this before. It's really too ruthless."

Upon seeing Zhu Bao enter with several police officers from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the police officers from the local police station who had been maintaining order at the crime scene rushed to greet him, their faces grim.

Zhu Bao raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He recognized the man in front of him; he was an old policeman from the local police station. It was said that he had grown up among police officers since childhood, as his father was a veteran policeman during the Republic of China era, making him a man with a long and distinguished family background.

What kind of victim could frighten such a seasoned and experienced police officer to the point of turning pale?

Zhu Bao initially had a somewhat perfunctory attitude towards the case. Although he was a policeman, he was also a person with a conscience. If it weren't for the circumstances, he would have liked to set off firecrackers at the door to celebrate the death of such a scoundrel as Du Wenge.

Therefore, when he received the call, he had already made up his mind that if the person who killed Du Wenge was a accomplice in a double-cross, then he would definitely be arrested and brought to justice.

If the other party is a relative or friend of a victim who suffered persecution at the hands of Du Wenge and is seeking revenge, then the process of arresting them can become more varied.

But now, Zhu Bao's curiosity has been truly piqued.

When we followed the old policeman to the door of the master bedroom, there was already a very strong smell of blood in the air.

"This smell... Could it be that the guy was drained of blood?" Ge Xuejun, the young policeman following behind Zhu Bao, looked at the old policeman from the police station in shock.

The old policeman sighed and shook his head: "It's more than that, you'll see when you go in."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Bao did not hesitate. He strode forward and pushed open the half-closed door to the master bedroom.

Du Wenge was a man who was very particular about appearances and grandeur. His house had very large gates, both for the courtyard and the main house. The entrance to the master bedroom was large enough for two adult men to stand side by side.

There was still a considerable amount of space to the left and right of the two people, which allowed several people behind them to see the scene inside the room clearly at the same time.

In an instant, a chorus of gasps rose and fell.

The morning sunlight streamed into the room through the windows, making it exceptionally bright, but the scene inside sent chills down the spines of the police officers who were used to handling all kinds of criminal investigations.

Inside the spacious room, a mangled, bloody object lay neatly arranged in a starfish shape, the cement floor stained black with blood.

The person on the ground, shaped like a large "X", had their limbs severed segment by segment, each segment about two or three centimeters apart, yet they were neatly arranged. From a distance, one would only see that the person had long arms and legs and looked strange, and would not be able to tell that the person's limbs had been cut into several pieces.

The key point is that each segment is the same length, the cuts are very neat, and the person who made the cut was so skilled that even the police officers were horrified.

That's not all; even the neck and head are divided into three parts from the body.

That's right, it's just three parts: head, neck, and body!

It wasn't over yet. Even the torso was cut into three sections: upper, middle, and lower. The abdomen was cut open, exposing organs such as the intestines and stomach, which were not separated. Only the heart, which was blackened by some unknown substance, was taken out of the left chest cavity and placed neatly next to Du Wenge.

It's as if it's telling everyone who comes: Look, this person's heart is black.

“That, that is…” A suppressed voice suddenly rang out, and Ge Xuejun pointed to the wall directly opposite him, his face pale.

Several large characters were written in blood on the white wall, looking both ferocious and terrifying.

[Du Wenge colluded with foreign enemies, betrayed our nation, relied on powerful figures, and harmed the innocent, causing the remains of war heroes to be lost and their spirits unable to return home. He is disloyal, unfilial, inhumane, and unjust. This blood feud must be avenged, and none of his colluders will escape.]

Zhu Bao stared at the large, blood-red characters on the wall, completely stunned. He wasn't shocked that someone had come to seek revenge on Du Wenge, but rather that Du Wenge was so audacious as to collude with foreign enemies.

"Ge Xuejun, Zhang Hongxiong, Luan Jidong, come with me to look for clues. Da Lu and Er Zi, go to the door and see if the forensic doctor has arrived yet."

"The others should guard the entrance and not allow any unauthorized personnel to enter."

"Yes, Captain!"

The few people who were called in by Zhu Bao carefully rummaged through the contents. At this moment, Zhu Bao squatted down next to Du Wenge, tilting his head to carefully examine the people on the ground.

It could no longer be considered a person; it had been broken into several pieces. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Du Wenge's flesh, including his entire face, had been sliced ​​open piece by piece with a knife, but not completely removed. Each piece of flesh was still attached to the skin, resembling fish scales clinging to a fish, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.

"Was this really done by a human?"

Ge Xuejun crouched behind Zhu Bao, trying to use his captain's massive body to shield himself, seeking a sense of security.

Who do you think it could be?

Zhu Bao frowned, his expression grave as he glanced at Ge Xuejun. Ge Xuejun was a brother he had grown up with, and they had applied to be transferred from Kyoto to Kaiyuan City together, so they knew each other very well.

Although this guy is usually a bit unreliable, he has a special talent for criminal investigation. This talent doesn't mean that he is particularly clever and intelligent in solving cases, but rather that a sentence he says unconsciously might hit the nail on the head, saving them a lot of detours when solving cases. It's like what women often call a sixth sense, which is sometimes frighteningly accurate.

Ge Xuejun stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, then frowned slightly and said with some confusion, "What kind of deep-seated hatred could drive someone to such a cruel act? Calling them ruthless is too lenient; they must be insane. Look closely, brother, every single cut of flesh is the same size and thickness, proving that their hand didn't even tremble when they made the cut."
