Wei Muran frowned. Because of the indoor environment, the ground was covered in water, so he couldn't see much.
The police arrived very quickly. Because of the murder, T City's criminal investigation team was dispatched.
Fortunately, Wei Muran brought his police ID with him out of habit. So, when the police from T City arrived, Wei Muran showed his ID and explained the general situation at the same time.
"So it's a colleague." Captain Yang Shaoqun smiled. His gaze fell on Qi Youxuan. "Then this is —"
"He's an expert specially hired by our Criminal Investigation Team. Recently, he helped solve the two serial murder cases in B City," Wei Muran explained. He didn't want the people in T City to exclude Qi Youxuan and not let him participate in the meeting.
Obviously, they all knew about him and immediately became more enthusiastic. "So it's Mr. Qi! I've heard a lot about you! "
Qi Youxuan had the demeanor of a big shot. He nodded calmly and didn't say much.
Then, Xiang Haorui came in with a police officer.
"He's the person in charge of the resort," the police officer who brought Xiang Haorui over said.
Xiang Haorui took the initiative to hand out his business card.
"The corpse is in the pool," Wei Muran said. "Before you guys came, no one touched it."
Yang Shaoqun nodded. "Please drain the water in the pool."
Xiang Haorui called the hot spring attendant and his colleagues from the identification department to bring some hot spring water back for identification. Wei Muran had asked the resort to stop injecting new hot spring water and drain the remaining hot spring water.
Slowly, the corpse at the bottom of the pool was revealed.
There were rocks tied to the corpse, so even if the corpse was dead long enough to float to the water, it wouldn't float up.
The police untied the rocks and moved the corpse up.
"Because the temperature of the hot spring has always been constant at 41 degrees, to calculate the effect of the water temperature on the corpse, the time of death should be around 2 to 3 o 'clock today. The deceased died of suffocation before being tied to rocks and sunk into the hot spring, "the forensic doctor said.
"Bring the corpse back first. Mr. Xiang, please check the client information of your resort to confirm the identity of the deceased," Yang Shaoqun said.
Xiang Haorui was very cooperative and immediately gave the order.
They went out to the salon where the witnesses gathered. Yang Shaoqun asked his colleague to record the statement.
Because Wei Muran was also one of the witnesses, he was also questioned.
However, Wei Muran didn't know much. After she told Yang Shaoqun everything she knew, Yang Shaoqun wanted Qi Youxuan's help because of his relationship with Qi Youxuan. Wei Muran, on the other hand, benefited from Qi Youxuan. Even a police officer from another city could follow them to understand the case.
Wei Muran felt that Yang Shaoqun did a good job, even though she hadn't been in the Criminal Investigation Unit for long.
However, when he was in the police academy, the school would often invite the seniors who had graduated to come back to the school to talk about the cases they had encountered after entering the police station.
There were one or two senior brothers and sisters who had a good relationship with them before they graduated. They were invited back by the school to give speeches, and after that, they would have meals with them in private.
He didn't have to worry as much about things in private as he did on stage.
She also heard a lot about how the police forces in different places discriminated against each other. Actually, there were many big cases every year, but because it wasn't reported in the newspaper, people didn't know much about it.
Many times, they went to other places to help solve cases. The local police forces didn't really like outsiders. They were polite on the surface, but when it came to solving a case, they didn't give them a chance to intervene at all. They only said that they were here to help and that they should handle the specific things themselves. Often, they returned to the team with a stomach full of depression.
You obviously wanted to help, but they just didn't let you get involved. It was obvious that they treated you as an outsider and couldn't integrate into the team at all. This kind of feeling was really uncomfortable.
It was rare that Yang Shaoqun didn't have this kind of feeling.
Although it wasn't under her jurisdiction, Yang Shaoqun didn't kick her out and prevent her from understanding the case. However, Wei Muran also had a sense of propriety. After all, this happened in T City. She wanted to know more out of curiosity and also because she was a witness. However, she wouldn't go in and meddle with the investigation.
However, Wei Muran felt that Yang Shaoqun didn't directly draw a line with her because of her relationship with Qi Youxuan.
She heard one of the witnesses say, "We were soaking in the hot spring earlier. The water in the pool wasn't actually deep. When I stretched my legs to move around in the pool, my feet touched a hard stone. I often come here to soak in the hot spring, so I know that this shouldn't be in the pool. Just as I was wondering, someone next to me kicked someone else, so I apologized. "
"Who was it?" a police officer asked. "Who kicked someone?"
"I …" A woman raised her hand timidly. It was still shaking, and it was obvious that she was quite frightened. The moment she raised her hand, she started crying again.
"What's your name?" the police officer named Zhang Shanfei asked.
"I-I'm Yang Yumin," the woman said while trembling.
When a policewoman next to her saw this, she said, "Sit down and talk."
Then, she helped Yang Yumin sit down and took the initiative to introduce herself to Qi Youxuan and Wei Muran with a smile. "Hello, I'm Feng Songwei, Captain Yang's subordinate."
Wei Muran greeted her politely. Qi Youxuan only nodded coldly, but it didn't stop Feng Songwei from looking at him with an appreciative gaze.
"What happened at that time? Please tell us in detail." Zhang Shanfei also sat across from Yang Yumin. He was afraid of provoking her, so his tone was gentle.
Yang Yumin shivered violently before saying, "At that time, we were all soaking in the hot spring. Because the hot spring water here was reddish-brown, it wasn't transparent when it was deep enough, so we couldn't see what was going on in the pool. When I stretched my legs forward, I felt that I touched someone. Because the pool was very big, and I often soaked here, even if everyone stretched their legs, they wouldn't touch each other. But at that time, I didn't think too much about it. I just thought that I touched someone, so I hurriedly apologized, but no one responded. I saw that the people soaking with me were all looking at each other as if they didn't know who I was talking to. I didn't think much about it at that time, so I accidentally touched someone again and bent my legs. But other people also touched me. I heard someone say sorry. Then, we felt that something was wrong. We didn't touch anyone, so why did we always bump into someone else? At that time, someone came down, so we moved to the side. Someone swam to the middle to soak, but he stepped on a corpse. Only then did we realize that there was a female corpse at the bottom of the pool. "
As soon as Yang Yumin finished speaking, someone next to her retched. After asking, they found out that it was the person who happened to be sitting on the female corpse.
Wei Muran and the others heard the scream and went in. They saw people crying and climbing up. They were sitting on the female corpse, and there were also a few who stepped on it.
Because of this incident, the hot spring was temporarily sealed and not open to the public. Wei Muran and the other three girls were also witnesses, so they requested to stay for the time being.
Anyway, they were here for a vacation and planned to stay in the resort, so they didn't have any objections.
Wei Muran and Qi Youxuan followed them to the police station. Wei Muran felt that he was just a bystander. Before Yang Shaoqun left, he especially invited Qi Youxuan to see if he could help them solve the case.
"I know Mr. Qi is here for a vacation. I'm really sorry to make such a request, but I sincerely hope that Mr. Qi can help us solve the case as soon as possible," Yang Shaoqun said.
Qi Youxuan looked unhappy. It wasn't that he didn't have a sense of justice, but his participation could only help solve the case earlier. However, if the police were to support themselves, it wasn't impossible to solve the case. At most, it would be a little slower. Wei Muran only had four days of vacation before she had to go back to B City. He wanted to make full use of these four days of vacation to be intimate with Wei Muran.
Obviously, Yang Shaoqun had a good eye. After getting along for such a short time, he knew that he should start with Wei Muran. Seeing that Wei Muran wanted to participate, he took the initiative to ask if she was willing to go to the police station to help. She was also one of the witnesses.
Wei Muran tugged on Qi Youxuan's sleeve. When Qi Youxuan saw that she really wanted to go and had a pleading expression, he had no choice but to agree.
Therefore, Yang Shaoqun was very happy. Wei Muran was also very happy and dragged Qi Youxuan to the police station.
