Chapter 103 The Boy Who Loves Cats
After receiving the report, Xiao Liu, a policeman from Chunfeng Road Police Station, rushed over quickly. Faced with such a situation, he also felt very troubled.
I don’t know what’s going on, but this is not the first or second time cat abuse incidents have occurred in this community.
There have been occasional incidents of cat abuse in the past few years, but they were usually stray cats, and people would feel sorry and angry for a few days and then it would be over.
But this year is different. All the cats that died this year are domestic cats, and they are rare breeds. Each cat cost several thousand dollars. This is destruction of private property, but they checked the surveillance and did not find any suspicious persons. Families with cats are now in a panic, worried that something might happen to their cats.
Domestic cats generally don’t go out, but some people like to walk cats in the community. Generally, these cats are well-behaved, sensible and friendly. Such cats are not guarded against people, and anyone can hold them and play with them.
The white cat that died today was a British shorthair. Its owner was a girl named Xiaowen.
According to Xiaowen, before she went to bed last night, her cat Xiaobai was sleeping soundly in the cat bed in the yard, but when she woke up this morning, she could not find it.
Xiaowen picked this cat herself at the pet store three years ago. It had been with her for three years. Now Xiaobai is dead. Xiaowen cried and held Xiao Liu's hand, begging him to find the murderer who killed Xiaobai.
Su Xiaoxiao saw that among the people who gathered here to watch the fun, there was a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old. He was watching the reactions of the crowd, with one corner of his lips raised and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.
"Is it him?" Su Xiaoxiao pointed in the direction of the boy calmly. The kitten looked at the boy in horror, "Meow, it's him. He is the one who took Xiaobai away."
The boy noticed Su Xiaoxiao's gaze and quickly put away the sarcasm on his face, replacing it with a sad and angry expression.
He obviously knew Xiaowen, and he walked over and comforted Xiaowen together with police officer Xiao Liu.
Su Xiaoxiao walked to the boy and smelled the fragrance of shower gel. Under the fragrance, there was also a faint smell of blood. If she did not have an excellent sense of smell, she might not have been able to detect it.
This smell of blood was the same as the smell of the white cat. Su Xiaoxiao looked at the blue and white school uniform the boy was wearing. There were a few slightly darker spots on the blue collar.
There was also a hint of blood on the boy's backpack, and Su Xiaoxiao thought of a possibility.
After police officer Xiao Liu calmed Xiao Wen down, he prepared to go to the property management to check the surveillance, and the boy was also ready to leave.
When he passed by Su Xiaoxiao, Su Xiaoxiao stopped him.
"What are you doing? I still have to go to school."
"Then I'm afraid you can't go."
"What's wrong with you, woman? I don't know you. Get out of the way and don't delay my school!"
The boy started yelling, alarming police officer Xiao Liu.
He hurried over and saw the tense situation between the two of them. "What's wrong with you two? Hey, comrade, why are you stopping people from leaving?"
"This boy is the murderer who killed the cat." Su Xiaoxiao said.
"Impossible! Xiao Shuai loves cats very much. We often feed stray cats together in the community. He likes my Xiao Bai very much. Xiao Bai is very close to him. Xiao Shuai would never kill it. Don't make false accusations!"
The person who spoke was Xiaowen, the owner of the white cat. The little girl had a puffy face, and it was obvious that she had a good relationship with Xiaoshuai.
The people watching nearby also shook their heads, thinking that Su Xiaoxiao was talking nonsense.
[Little girl, even if you can't find the murderer, you can't just accuse someone wrongly! ]
[Everyone in our community knows that Xiao Shuai loves cats the most, how could he be the murderer?! ]
[That’s right, if Xiaoshuai is the murderer, I will perform a handstand and eat cat feces on the spot.]
Su Xiaoxiao was so angry that she laughed, "You'd better remember what you said."
Policeman Xiao Liu was very calm. "Comrade, you have to provide evidence when you speak. You said Xiao Shuai was the murderer. What evidence do you have?"
Su Xiaoxiao showed her ID to Xiao Liu. Seeing that she was from the same industry and from the Municipal Bureau, Xiao Liu's attitude immediately became much more polite.
"You want evidence? Now I'll tell you where the evidence is."
Su Xiaoxiao pointed at Xiaoshuai's school uniform.
"You killed the cat while wearing this school uniform, right? The collar is splattered with cat blood. Although you rubbed it with your hands, it was not completely washed off. These dark marks are bloodstains."
"You're talking nonsense! School uniforms will have marks after being worn for a long time. How can it be bloodstains?" A flash of panic appeared in Xiao Shuai's eyes, and he stiffened his neck and shouted loudly.
"Don't be anxious. It doesn't mean that the loudest person is right. I haven't finished speaking yet. I guess the murder weapon should still be in your schoolbag. It should be a utility knife."
"I'm an art student, so of course I have a utility knife. What's so strange about this? How did it become a murder weapon?"
"Whether it is the murder weapon or not is not up to you to decide. You will know after the test. Don't think that if you wash it well, it won't be detectable. In fact, no matter how you wash it, there will be bloodstains, especially on the handle of the utility knife. You can take it out and let the police test it and they will know."
"You say to test it, so why should I listen to you? I still have to go to school and I don't have time to waste here with you." Xiao Shuai pushed Su Xiaoxiao away and was about to leave. This time, Xiao Liu stopped him before Su Xiaoxiao could make any move.
"You can't leave now. Open your bag and let us see."
"Actually, I haven't finished yet. You dissected the kitten in your bathroom, right? Blood should be detected in your bathroom. You used a utility knife to cut the kitten's neck, but you used a boning knife in your kitchen to chop off its limbs. Do you think blood would be detected on your knife?"
Su Xiaoxiao walked closer to Xiao Shuai and looked into his eyes, "Actually, you've done more than that." Su Xiaoxiao pointed at a cat's paw pendant on Xiao Shuai's schoolbag. The cat's paw was furry and looked very realistic, cute and adorable.
"Did you make this cat paw pendant yourself? You probably made it with a chopped-off cat paw. We can compare it to see if there are any cats killed before with paws of this color. I have to say that you have some talent in certain areas, but it's a pity that you don't use it in the right way."
Su Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at Xiaowen again, pointing at the pendant on Xiaowen's mobile phone, which was also a furry cat's paw.
"Is this a gift from Xiaoshuai?" Xiaowen nodded, then realized, "Are you saying this is also a real cat's paw?!"
Xiao Wen was so scared that she quickly untied the cat's claws and threw them on the ground. She covered her mouth with both hands, looking terrified, with tears dripping down her cheeks. How could things turn out like this? !
Xiao Shuai looked at Su Xiaoxiao with a pair of resentful eyes, but Su Xiaoxiao didn't care at all.
"Xiao Liu, I'll leave this child to you."
"Don't worry, we will handle it. I have called my colleagues back and they will notify the child's parents immediately. Kids nowadays are so terrible!" Xiao Liu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. If it weren't for Su Xiaoxiao, they would never have thought that the murderer would be such a child.
"Hey, comrade who is going to perform a handstand and eat cat shit, don't run away." Seeing the man dodging backwards in the crowd, Su Xiaoxiao deliberately shouted loudly. Everyone knows how to disgust others.
Su Xiaoxiao arrived at the office and distributed the buns to Li Yan and Xiao Yu. The three of them chatted among themselves.
Qi Lei walked in and Su Xiaoxiao handed him a bun. Qi Lei took it and took two bites without hesitation. He just happened to have something to say to them.
When he checked Zhou Wen's information yesterday, he found that Zhou Xiaomei's mother Jiang Minmin was actually the victim of a case 21 years ago.
