Chapter 231 White Cat: I want to call the police!
Zhu Zhu said helplessly: "This is a starling we brought back from the crime scene. The bird cursed all the way..."
"Idiot, I'll kill you!"
The starling cursed again.
"The crime scene...could it be a murder scene?" Jiang Shiyan asked suspiciously.
"This case is a little special. I'll tell you the details after you come over." Zhu Zhu paused. "The crime scene is still under lockdown, and the police are desperately searching for new evidence. Can you catch a few mice and bring them over?"
Jiang Shiyan's mind moved slightly.
"It'll take me about an hour. I have some finishing touches here."
"it is good."
After hanging up the phone, Yan Anting also called him and briefly explained the case. They received a call from a resident of a resettlement community in an urban village and reported that a suspicious odor was coming from a house. After breaking into the house, a foul smell filled the room. Sure enough, there was an old man who had been dead for many days in the house.
The old man's body had been gnawed to a bloody mess by several dogs in the house. It seemed that they were extremely hungry and started to eat their master's corpse. The bloody and disgusting scene made many people present vomit.
The dogs that ate the corpse have been taken away and disposed of, and the old man's body has been sent to the funeral home.
It was originally thought to be a simple case of an elderly person living alone dying in the house. This kind of thing is actually not uncommon, and the police did not take it seriously at first.
Until a starling flew in from the balcony with the window not closed tightly, landed on the wooden frame on the balcony, and cursed the policeman who did not leave as "idiot".
At first the police thought it was fun, but as they were playing around they realized something was wrong.
Mynah birds are considered to be one of the most intelligent animals among birds. They have a strong ability to mimic speech and do not need their owners to teach them deliberately. They can learn by watching and hearing.
In addition to calling people "idiots", this starling also said words such as "kill you" and "do it". But how could an old lady living alone learn such words at home?
They immediately began an investigation.
However, this starling seemed to be free-range and would often fly out from the balcony to play. Its specific movements were difficult to track, but some unusual things were found in the old lady's house: bloody clothes, scissors, hair...
But how could an old lady living alone have these things?
They immediately set their sights on the old lady's children and began investigating them.
However, this starling only knew simple human language and would just quack the rest of the time, so their best option was to ask Jiang Shiyan for help.
After Jiang Shiyan drove to the police station and got out of the car, he met a group of people who had just returned from a police call.
"Miss Xiaoyan."
"Miss Xiaoyan is here."
Jiang Shiyan also greeted them with a smile.
She looked at him and asked curiously, "Where's Captain Yan?"
"In the car behind."
As he was speaking, the police car drove into the police station. After it stopped, Yan Anting was holding a cat in his hand.
Jiang Shiyan looked at him puzzledly.
"I saw this cat downstairs. When we were handling the old lady's body, there were many stray cats around. This cat jumped onto the car when we weren't paying attention. We only found it later."
"Meow!!"
[I want to call the police!]
Jiang Shiyan reached out and took the stray cat. Because it was a long-haired cat, it looked dirty and its hair had many tangles, but its eyes looked very determined.
"Let me talk to it, you all go in first." Jiang Shiyan said.
Jingye ran out of the bureau in a flash. After seeing the white long-haired stray cat, his eyes became more vigilant.
Jiang Shiyan held Jingye down: "No fighting!"
Jingye purred: [It has fleas!]
Jiang Shiyan also discovered it.
"Then go to the pet hospital and get some anthelmintic medicine." Jiang Shiyan patted its head. "I'll send a message to the doctor. You can just go there."
Jingye called out to the white cat twice as a warning, then turned around and ran out of the police station.
[Are you a policeman?] The long-haired white cat tilted its head, looked at Jiang Shiyan in confusion and asked, [Why are you not wearing a uniform?]
"I'm not a police officer, but I'm an animal expert hired by the police station. They can't understand you, but I can. If you want to call the police, come to me and I can translate for you."
It was indeed the first time that the white cat met a human being who could understand its speech. After thinking for a while, it agreed.
[The old lady was very kind and often prepared a lot of delicious food for us. The puppies at home were also stray dogs that she adopted. We hadn’t seen her for many days, and then Zhuangzhuang climbed up from the window and saw the old lady arguing with a woman…]
"Woman?" Jiang Shiyan's mind moved slightly.
[Zhuangzhuang said that the woman was very vicious and would even snatch things from the old lady. The old lady said that the children she raised were all ungrateful and only cared about her inheritance, which she had already donated. What is inheritance?]
"Inheritance is money." Jiang Shiyan said simply, "The food you eat is all bought by grandma."
[Oh, is that the currency of human beings? Just like us, we also have currency, which is mice!]
Jiang Shiyan nodded: "That's right!"
[The old lady is so pitiful, can you help her teach that bad guy a lesson?]
Jiang Shiyan touched its head: "Okay. But I need more clues, can you tell me?"
[clue?]
"Where the old lady usually went and what she said when she fed you are all very important. It would be even better if you could identify the scent of the woman who quarreled with the old lady."
The white cat thought about it carefully and told Jiang Shiyan everything he knew.
Jingye also ran back with anthelmintic medicine in his mouth.
Jiang Shiyan was thinking about shaving his hair, but the white cat was not happy about it.
[No shaving!]
Jiang Shiyan had no choice but to give up and dripped the anthelmintic on the back of its neck.
She found a cage in the police station and gave it to the white cat. The white cat cooperated and got in obediently.
Jiang Shiyan told the police everything he knew.
"It should be the old lady's eldest daughter." Zhu Zhu handed the information to Jiang Shiyan. "This old lady had a hard time. She married three husbands, but all three husbands died, leaving four children who were not her biological children. After she raised them, no one was willing to support her in her old age. They all wanted the little compensation for the demolition in her hand."
"So was the inheritance really donated?"
"We're still confirming." Zhu Zhu said, leading Jiang Shiyan to the room where the starling was imprisoned. "That bird always curses at people, so we have to lock it up in a separate room. Otherwise, if people hear it, it will have a bad impact..."
As soon as Jiang Shiyan opened the door, he heard the starling bird flapping its wings and calling, "The ungrateful wolf is back! The ungrateful wolf is back!"
