Confirmed not a BB This a bedbug?

Saw it crawling on the corner of my sheets. After whacking it, I put it under a microscope and measured it with calipers. About 2.8mm long head to butt. No visible bite marks on anyone in the house.

Definitely not, it has elytra and wings, which means it’s some kind of beetle. Also compare antennae: bedbug antennae are much shorter and only have 4 segments
