After ambulance personnel rushed to the scene to confirm, the man was obviously dead and showed no signs of life.

Police investigation revealed that the deceased was a 22-year-old man surnamed Zhang. He and the suspect Mu Nan were colleagues in the car dealership. The two were suspected of having a dispute over a debt negotiation. After Mu Nan allegedly accidentally beat Zhang to death, he stuffed the body into the trunk and went straight to the police station to surrender.

It is understood that when the vehicle driven by Mu Nan slowly arrived at the entrance of the police station, a large number of police officers immediately stepped forward to be on guard. When the police initially inspected the vehicle, they suddenly discovered an unidentified man in the rear compartment. The ambulance arrived quickly, but after on-site inspection by medical staff, they found that the man lying in the trunk was cold and showed no signs of life, and was not sent to hospital.

Upon seeing this, the police handcuffed and arrested the man named Mu on the spot. Due to the seriousness of the case, the police immediately sealed off the scene. In addition to notifying criminal forensics personnel to come to the scene for evidence collection and autopsy, they also quickly reported to the prosecutor of the Qiaotou District Prosecutor's Office late at night to direct the investigation.

The suspect confessed to the police that the deceased owed him NT$100,000 and had not repaid him. Last night, they met at a car dealership to negotiate. He used a 1-meter-long "hot glue" to beat him to demand repayment, but "accidentally" beat him to death. However, the police initially examined the deceased and found only a few red and swollen wounds on his body and head. The cause of death and his confession are still to be clarified. Whether the car dealership was the front line of the murder and whether there were accomplices remains to be investigated.
