“Looks like you guys have some new evidence.” Xiao Rui heard the three’s discussion and walked over. It sounded like the coroners had found something new.

“This has to be family abuse!” Qin Xuan was agitated. He was not going to let the young girl die just like that.

“You think her father did this? But we have no evidence! Plus Si Lin has already looked into the girl’s parents, they do not have any motive.” Lu Xuan countered.

Qin Xuan argued, “But other than attending events and being in celebrity activities, Wu Han spent more of her time at home. If not her family, who would have the chance to abuse a girl like her? If it was an outsider, why didn’t Wu Han’s family report it to the police? Plus, the girl’s suicide note did not even mention her parents, that is very strange.”

While Lu Xuan, Qin Xuan, and Xiao Rui were discussing the case, Mo Li suddenly said, “We need to send her back to the morgue. This is more than just abuse, it’s rape.” Mo Li still felt something was wrong after she found the scars. So she carefully examined Wu Han’s perineum.

According to Chinese laws, if one had sex with a woman under the age of 14, they would be charged with rape.

Xiao Rui nodded. After the trace analysts were done, Xiao Rui had the girl transferred to the morgue.

At the morgue, Mo Li finally had a chance to carefully examine the victim. “There are many old ruptures on her hymen. The girl was only 13 this year.” Mo Li sighed.

“Was... was it her father who did this?” Qin Xuan felt nauseous when he thought about it. What kind of father would do something like this?

Lu Xuan clenched his fist. “Based on what we know, the father does look like the most likely suspect.” Lu Xuan used gauze to perform a vaginal swab on Wu Han. “Regardless, we should get this to the DNA lab to be tested. In addition, we need to get the police to detain the girl’s father! If it’s really him, he really deserves to be cut into pieces.”

They notified Xiao Rui and Xiao Rui sent the sample to the DNA lab. 4 hours later, while Mo Li and the rest were about to fall asleep, the result came. The semen stains found in the victim’s vagina did not have DNA similarity to the victim.

Knowing that everyone sighed in relief. “I already told you, this kind of disgusting story is not that likely to happen in real life.” Kang Zhi sighed in relief.

“But this result only means that the girl’s biological father didn’t do it, no?” Qin Xuan turned to Mo Li.

“What? Do you mean Wu Yong is not Wu Han’s biological father? He’s still a suspect?” Kang Zhi gasped.

Lu Xuan nodded. “Wu Yong is indeed not the girl’s biological father. We have done the comparison while waiting for the DNA result. This does make the guy look even more suspicious.”

Xiao Rui picked up his phone, “How is the arrest coming along?” Just as he said that the officer, Xiao Zhang ran over with sweat all over his face. “What is the DNA result?”

“Brother Zhang, you’re back! The girl was not raped by her biological father, but then Wu Yong is not her biological father either. So where is the man? Has the team caught him?” Kang Zhi looked at Xiao Zhang nervously.

Xiao Zhang shook his head. “The man has fled.” When Xiao Zhang led his team to Wu Yong’s home, he only found Wu Han’s mother. Wu Han’s mother couldn’t remember how she returned from the event. She had been sitting in the dark. If not for the police’s interruption, she wouldn’t even realize her husband was gone.

With permission from the mother, the police noticed that all the jewelry and bank cards were gone. For a moment, the mother even argued that perhaps her husband only took these things to escape from this sad place because he couldn’t face the empty house without their daughter...

The police did not argue with her. Perhaps she needed this to fool herself.

“We will split up to look for the man then. We will seal off all the airports, train and bus stations. I believe he won’t use his real ID since he is on the run. He’ll most likely visit a forger to come up with a fake ID.”

Mo Li scratched her chin. Something still did not feel right. Something about the case was bugging her.

Then it dawned on her. Mo Li asked, “Did we find anything made of mahogany at the crime scene? What year was Wu Han born in?”

Xiao Rui frowned deeply. He turned to his phone to study pictures of the crime scene. “No, we didn’t find anything made from mahogany at the crime scene.. However, Wu Han was indeed born in the year of Water.”
