The Genius Female Forensic Pathologist, The Psychological Anatomist

The surveillance footage from the parking lot of Anqi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital did not capture any suspicious individuals approaching Director Liu's car, and the underground parking lot of Dongjiang Yujing Residential Complex was not equipped with surveillance cameras.

Fang Rui suspected that the perpetrator likely tampered with Director Liu's car trunk in the underground parking lot of the residential complex.

However, after reviewing the surveillance footage, no suspects involved in framing Director Liu were identified.

Director Liu was known for his low-profile and mild temperament, rarely getting into conflicts with others, let alone making enemies. Investigations into his social connections also failed to uncover any suspects.

Most of the people he knew and interacted with were from the medical field, and many of his friends were surgeons. These individuals were skilled in performing surgical procedures and had the capability to cut open a skull and remove half of a deceased person's brain.

Since Director Liu had a solid alibi, the police had no choice but to release him.

Fang Rui still found him suspicious, so he assigned Zhang and Dong, who often worked in the field, to keep an eye on him, also ensuring his safety.

The medications found in Director Liu's drawer were sent for testing.

After the test results came out, Mu Mian said, "These medications are for treating issues related to sexual performance. If these are his, it's likely that he has lost his fertility."

Fang Rui looked at the test report in surprise and asked, "Then how did Director Liu get Wang Yuqing pregnant?"

Mu Mian sighed, "Fang Rui, you're being dense. Of course, it was through surgery. Artificial insemination can also result in pregnancy."

"But he already has a son. The success rate of artificial insemination isn't high, so why would he spend a fortune to have another child?"

Mu Mian looked at Fang Rui and blinked.

"What is it?"

Mu Mian made a bitter face, "I can't answer such a complicated question."

Wang, who was standing nearby, chimed in, "Well, no wealthy man would ever complain about having too many sons. The more children, the better."

"..."

Fang Rui investigated Wang Yuqing's background. She came from a poor family and often took on part-time jobs during college, but she maintained her integrity and earned money through legitimate means. Her classmates and friends described her as having strong morals and self-esteem, making it unlikely that she would interfere in someone else's marriage.

Although Wang Yuqing had visited Anqi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital multiple times for prenatal checkups, the nurses and doctors there were unaware that she was Director Liu's mistress. They also had no idea how Wang Yuqing and Director Liu had met.

Fang Rui contacted Wang Yuqing's college roommate over the phone. She was Wang Yuqing's closest friend, but they had rarely been in touch over the past six months.

Fang Rui asked, "Do you know about Wang Yuqing and Liu Qiangmin's relationship?"

"Who is Liu Qiangmin? I've never heard Yuqing mention him."

"He's Wang Yuqing's boyfriend, and she's pregnant with his child. Didn't you know about this?"

"Yuqing is pregnant? That can't be!"

"You ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‍weren't aware of this?"

"We haven't been in touch much recently. Six months ago, Yuqing told me she found a job that only required her to work for ten months, and she would earn 600,000 yuan. I thought she had been scammed and advised her not to take the job. After that, she stopped contacting me. Could it be that she became someone's mistress?"

After hearing Wang Yuqing's roommate's account and considering Wang Yuqing's strange behavior, Fang Rui began to suspect that Wang Yuqing might not be Director Liu's mistress but rather a surrogate mother.

This would explain why Wang Yuqing didn't let them into her house—she was likely afraid they would realize she and Director Liu weren't in a romantic relationship.

She never referred to the child in her womb as "my child," possibly because the child was only being carried by her and didn't belong to her.

Fang Rui invited Wang Yuqing to the interrogation room.

Wang Yuqing sat on the chair, visibly annoyed, and said, "Officer, I'm pregnant. On a rainy day like this, couldn't you have come to my place to ask your questions? Why drag me here? If something happens to me and I lose the baby, can you afford to take responsibility?"

Fang Rui asked, "What is your relationship with Liu Qiangmin?"

Wang Yuqing replied irritably, "Officer, have you lost your memory? I've told you many times, he's my boyfriend."

Fang Rui continued, "Is the child in your womb yours?"

Wang Yuqing's expression changed slightly, but she quickly masked it by brushing her hair and rolling her eyes at Fang Rui.

"Officer, why are you asking such stupid questions? The child is in my womb. If it's not mine, whose could it be?"

"Then please accompany us to the hospital. We need to conduct a paternity test to determine if you and the fetus are biologically related."

"Officer, you have no right to demand this from me. It violates my privacy."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"You are suspected of illegal surrogacy. We are asking for a paternity test to gather evidence. You are obligated to cooperate."

Wang Yuqing turned pale and became visibly flustered. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally chose to confess.

"Officer, I admit it. I am a surrogate for Liu Qiangmin. I don't know who the child's mother is, but the doctors implanted the fertilized egg into my body through surgery. To better care for the child, Liu Qiangmin bought me an apartment, and he lived with me to take care of me."

"You're so young. There are many ways to earn money. Why did you agree to something like this?"

"I had no choice. My family is poor, and my father is sick. We needed a large sum of money for his treatment. I couldn't just watch my father die!

When I was at my wit's end, I saw his job posting online. I thought, compared to selling myself, carrying someone else's child wasn't so bad. After all, women are meant to have children."

"Liu Qiangmin already has a son. Why did he need you to be a surrogate?"

"He told me his wife cheated on him, and his child isn't biologically his. He desperately wanted a child of his own, but he's infertile. That's why he asked me to be a surrogate. That's also why I dared to live with him. Since he has fertility issues, he couldn't do anything to me."

"How does he treat the child in your womb?"

"Very well. He takes me to his hospital for prenatal checkups every two weeks, terrified that something might happen to the child. He also bought me a lot of nutritional supplements, saying I must give birth to a healthy child this time."

"This time? Has he had other surrogates before?"

"I'm not entirely sure, but I think so. He mentioned that this time he would personally supervise me to ensure there were no mistakes."

"Is he very worried about the child's well-being?"

"He seems to have some mental issues. He's extremely anxious about this child. He repeatedly emphasized that I must follow his dietary plan and wouldn't let me go out casually."

"Does he exhibit any other unusual behavior?"

"Not really. He's a decent person, just a bit controlling and overly concerned about the child. But that's understandable. He's infertile, and after going through the trouble of artificial insemination, he naturally wants to treasure this child."
