The sun shone through the layers of white clouds on the road and through the trees on both sides of the road, leaving behind a gorgeous morning light. It was close to the Mid-Autumn Festival. An autumn rain brought with it a scorching heat, causing a thin layer of mist to rise from the ground.
After a few days of rainy days, it finally cleared up. It seemed that even the air had the taste of sunshine.
Ye Zi, dressed in casual clothes, sat on the bus. She got up very early today. When she went out, Lin Yan was still sleeping at home.
She didn't interrupt Lin Yan's sweet dream. Instead, she prepared breakfast and went to the Aroma Detective Club alone.
She was really the first one to come to the club. She thought about how her threat To Look Around yesterday didn't work. Did this damn Panda see her as the boss?
Now, even Ye Zi sometimes silently cursed. Was she the boss, or was the panda the boss?
Walking into the club, to Ye Zi's surprise, the Panda was lying on her desk. Did this girl find her conscience? Or was she worried about her bonus?
Ye Zi would definitely choose the latter.
She walked to To Look Around and patted her shoulder gently. "Panda, sleep on the sofa in my office."
"Mm …" To Look Around opened her eyes slowly and looked at Ye Zi with sleepy eyes. She rubbed her eyes and her vision gradually became clear. "Boss, you're here. I've done the report you wanted."
"I was just kidding. Did you really spend the whole night in the club?!" Ye Zi couldn't bear to see her like this.
To Look Around stared at the dark circles under her eyes with a sad face. "Of course, you have to know that my bonus is not a small amount."
"Really?!" Ye Zi suddenly widened her eyes. "Why do I remember that your bonus this month is only 500 yuan?"
"What?!" To Look Around glared at Ye Zi. "How can it be only 500 yuan?!"
"You'll have to ask yourself."
Ye Zi smiled and walked into the office with the information To Look Around.
To Look Around's information was very detailed. It could be seen that she had put in a lot of effort …
Ye Zi was completely focused on the information in her hands and sat down on the sofa.
"Ouch!"
A sudden exclamation startled Ye Zi. The folder in her hand fell to the ground. She turned around to see Yao Anmian sitting up on the sofa with a blanket covering him. He rubbed his eyes and said with a dazed expression, "Boss, you're here."
"Why are you here?" Ye Zi asked with a frown.
Yao Anmian leaned over to pick up the folder on the ground and handed it to Ye Zi. "It's all for this. Panda called me last night and asked me to help you with the information on Xia Shengtian's case. If I don't do a good job, you'll deduct our bonus."
Hey! Ye Zi glanced at To Look Around through the glass door.
Gu Panpan saw that the situation was not good, so she rushed into the washroom.
Ye Zi couldn't be bothered to argue with this pair of clowns. She walked to the seat, leaned over, and flipped open the information on Xia Shengtian's case.
The time of Xia Shengtian's death was at dusk three days ago, and the crime scene was determined to be at the seaside. From the livor mortis that appeared on the surface of the body, Xia Shengtian's body did not show any signs of being moved. This also meant that the crime scene was at the seaside.
However, what was puzzling was that Xia Shengtian actually died of carbon monoxide poisoning.
How could he get carbon monoxide poisoning by the sea?!
Ye Zi couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. She woke Yao Anmian up and asked, "Are you sure this information is correct?"
"Boss, don't worry. I infiltrated the police yesterday …"
"Oh!" Ye Zi raised her finger and pointed at Yao Anmian. "You're done for. If Brother Chen Mo finds out, he'll definitely arrest you."
Yao Anmian said, "I say, why did you have to go so far? You could have just told me earlier. It's just a matter of moving your fingers."
"Don't forget, you promised Brother Chen Mo that you wouldn't infiltrate the police database …"
Yao Anmian stood up and walked straight to Ye Zi. "This is the autopsy report for Xia Shengtian's case. Do you want it?"
"Hehe." Ye Zi grinned. "Of course."
Autopsy Number: No 2018091704
Name: Xia Shengtian
Gender: Male
Age: 46
Occupation: Chairman of a listed company
46-year-old male corpse, height 177cm, weight 75kg; livor mortis exists and faded due to finger pressure. The corpse was covered in rigor mortis. Judging from the condition, the corpse had not moved.
There were no bruises on the surface of the corpse. His eyes were protruding, and there were obvious bloody foamy secretions in his mouth and nose. His mouth and nose were purplish, and signs of suffocation were obvious.
From Xia Shengtian's autopsy report, the beach was indeed the primary crime scene. There were no signs of him being moved. Although it was already mid-autumn in September, the high temperature had not subsided. Livor mortis would easily appear at dusk.
In addition, there was a heavy rain on the day of Xia Shengtian's death, which accelerated the decomposition of the corpse.
Because of the heavy rain, there was no one at the beach. Therefore, it was not until the next day, when the sky cleared up, that someone discovered Xia Shengtian's corpse.
Carbon monoxide poisoning was caused by inhalation of the product of incomplete combustion of carbon-containing substances through the respiratory tract.
The mechanism of poisoning was that the affinity between carbon monoxide and hemoglobin was 200 to 300 times higher than the affinity between oxygen and hemoglobin. Therefore, carbon monoxide easily combined with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin, causing hemoglobin to lose its oxygen-carrying ability and function, causing tissue asphyxia.
It had a toxic effect on the tissues and cells of the whole body, especially on the cerebral cortex.
Ye Zi could not figure out how Xia Shengtian had been poisoned by carbon monoxide at the beach in the heavy rain.
Could it be that the beach was not the primary crime scene?!
After thinking about it, Ye Zi felt that it was impossible. If the beach was not the primary crime scene, Xia Shengtian's corpse would show signs of being moved.
What the hell was going on?!
All kinds of questions lingered in Ye Zi's mind.
This case was really interesting.
She slowly raised her eyelashes and closed the folder.
"Boss, how is it?" To Look Around, she walked to Ye Zi with a cup of coffee and placed it on her desk.
Ye Zi picked up the coffee and took a sip. "It's hard to explain why Xia Shengtian's corpse appeared at the beach."
"What's so hard to explain? Wasn't it written very clearly on the autopsy report? Xia Shengtian's corpse was not moved. That means the beach was the primary crime scene."
Ye Zi shook her head slightly. "Then how do you explain carbon monoxide poisoning?"
Hearing this, Gu Panpan also fell silent. This was indeed very puzzling.
Carbon monoxide poisoning must occur in a confined space, but the beach was empty. How did the murderer do it?
Meanwhile, Chen Mo had been holding back his suspicions about Han Yunxi. However, during the period when Xia Shengtian had been dead, Han Yunxi had clearly been at the detective agency. There was no way she could have gone to the seaside a few kilometers away.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in Ye Zi's office froze.
"Sleeping pills, can you find out where Xia Shengtian went before he died?" Ye Zi looked up at Yao Anmian.
"This …" Yao Anmian pondered for a while. "I'm afraid it's a little difficult."
Ye Zi said, "Try your best. I want to know who Xia Shengtian met before he died."
"Okay, I need some time."
"How long?"
"The whole morning."
“ok。”
For the entire morning, Yao Anmian's long and slender fingers tapped away at the computer screen. When it was almost noon, Yao Anmian suddenly snapped her fingers, stood up from her chair, and said, "I found it!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Zi hurriedly walked out of her office and moved closer to Yao Anmian's computer.
When Ye Zi and the others saw Yao Anmian's computer screen, they couldn't help but widen their eyes at the same time.
Because the person sitting in the passenger seat of Xia Shengtian was wearing a red dress. Although the computer screen was blurry, they could tell from the figure and the dress that the person sitting in the passenger seat of Xia Shengtian's car was Han Yunxi.
After remaining silent for a while, Ye Zi muttered to herself, "Looks like we need to go meet this Madam Xia."
Shengshi Group was located in the golden business circle of the CBD of Binhai City. Its position was second only to Lin Yan's Lam Group. However, in Binhai City, where every inch of land was expensive, it was impossible to own such a building without a few billion yuan.
Ye Zi got out of the taxi and looked up at the towering building. She couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
This should have been Xia Shengtian's property, but now it should be Han Yunxi's.
She didn't think too much and went straight to Shengshi Group.
The receptionist of Shengshi Group was very polite. After Ye Zi explained the purpose of her visit, she called the president's office.
"Miss Yeh, President Han is in a meeting. He asked you to wait for a moment on the 33rd floor."
Ye Zi took the elevator and went to the president's office on the top floor. She waited in the reception room for about half an hour before Han Yunxi came.
Today, Han Yunxi was dressed very well. She was wearing a Chanel suit and black high heels. She didn't wear any jewelry, and she looked smart and capable.
Han Yunxi and Ye Zi shook hands, and Ye Zi directly explained the purpose of her visit. She took out a few photos from her backpack and handed them to Han Yunxi. "Miss Han, do you know the person sitting in the front passenger seat in the photo?"
Han Yunxi just glanced at the photo and returned it to Ye Zi. She smiled and said softly, "The person in the photo is me."
Faced with Han Yunxi's straightforwardness, Ye Zi nodded slightly and asked, "This photo was taken on the day Mr. Xia Shengtian was killed. Miss Han, why are you two together?"
Han Yunxi smiled. "We're husband and wife. What's so strange about us being together? Miss Ye, if I remember correctly, you seem to be just a private detective. My husband's case doesn't seem to have anything to do with you! "Still distressed about not being able to find the latest chapter? Amway a public account: r/d/444
