Be in low spirits
Chapter 26 Broken Heart Grass
The two went straight to the entrance of Cheung Kong Group and explained their purpose to the front desk. The front desk made a few phone calls and then told them: "Ms. Shu is not in the company." Li Li asked: "Where did she go?"
The receptionist seemed a bit embarrassed and made another phone call, saying, "Mr. Shu has gone abroad and won't be back until two days later." After hearing what the receptionist said, the two had no choice but to go home.
In the car, Kong Zhixi was still mumbling: "I saw her at that party a few days ago, and now she's gone abroad." Li Li also said: "I didn't see me yesterday, and today she said she went abroad. I don't know if it's true or not."
"Looking at the look of the front desk, it doesn't seem fake. We'll know when we go back and check her ticket." Kong Zhixi felt that she had hit a snag so early in the morning and it was unlucky.
After returning to the bureau and checking her flight ticket, she did go abroad. Seeing that there was no further action, Kong Zhixi asked Li Li, "Did you gain anything from meeting Zhao Xuanli's brother yesterday?"
"Her younger brother has always looked down on her. Whenever he mentions her, his face is full of disgust. He says that they rarely communicate with each other and don't even say much to each other at home." Li Li answered her unconsciously.
"Yesterday I checked the people in her call records, and someone told me that she had a best friend named Tian Tian, but no one knew how to contact Tian Tian." Kong Zhixi also shared the information she knew.
"Actually, can we ask her what the relationship is between her brother and Shu Botian's sister?" Kong Zhixi suggested.
"I asked Zhao Xuanli's parents yesterday. They used to live in the same community, and both were businessmen, so they knew each other for a long time. But later because of their careers, they moved away from that community and had no contact. But later when their children went to school, they found out that they went to the same school, so they resumed contact." Li Li talked about the details he heard.
The two of them combined the information they had found and found no loopholes. The only suspects were the sister and brother, and the weird doctor. Kong Zhixi spent the whole afternoon looking for this so-called Tian Tian, but still couldn't find her contact information.
In the evening, she bought some vegetables, cooked a meal and sent it to Li Li, and then they went home together to rest.
At around 4 a.m., Li Li received another call from the police, saying that a male corpse was found in front of the sculpture in the square. This time he knocked on the door of Kong Zhixi's cubicle, called for a long time to wake her up, and went to the scene together.
Kong Zhixi was also dazed after getting in the car. Not long after she sat down, she fell asleep again in the passenger seat. Li Li called her for a long time before getting out of the car. When she saw the male corpse hanging on the sculpture, she was completely awake.
The corpse shared a common feature with the previous two bodies, with the words "Heartbroken Grass" tattooed on its waist. Kong Zhixi narrowed her eyes, patted Li Li's chest, and said, "Don't think about it, the cause of death is most likely poisoning, or poisoning by this Heartbroken Grass." Li Li nodded, agreeing with her.
"But what needs to be inspected still needs to be inspected." Li Li once again felt the pressure doubled because of this corpse.
"Come to think of it, have we overlooked this tattoo?" Kong Zhixi said, touching her chin and thinking for a moment.
"What do you mean?" Li Li didn't understand.
"That is, can we check all the tattoo artists in the city? Maybe they have their own unique marks or potions?"
Li Li thought this was a solution, but there were quite a few tattoo artists in the city. If they were to investigate them all, it would take a lot of time. The murderer might even commit a fourth or fifth crime during this period. Their time was really limited.
After the scene was cleaned up and the body was moved back to the forensic room, it was already past 7 a.m. Kong Zhixi sat in front of the stall eating soybean milk and oil sticks. Li Li sat opposite her, looking worried and unable to eat anything. Seeing this, Kong Zhixi took his oil sticks and took a bite, saying, "It's not the first time you've seen a corpse, what's there to be unable to eat?" She ate happily.
"No, think about it. If the deceased was a kid from a wealthy family, it would be hard to explain. And we don't know what public opinion would say." Li Li could imagine the family members making a scene at the police station.
"If he is similar to the previous victims, he should not be liked by his family. If the public opinion can be stopped, there should be no pressure on the family." Kong Zhixi felt that even if there was, it would be a matter of fighting back and nothing could be done about it.
Li Li was still very worried. He drank a few sips of soy milk and didn't eat many bites of the fried dough sticks. Kong Zhixi made everything for him without any hesitation.
When they arrived at the forensic room, Old Sui also looked at the body with a worried look on his face. Kong Zhixi didn't understand: "It's ok that Old Li is worried, but why are you worried too?"
"Aren't these corpses coming too frequently?" Lao Sui felt that the work pressure was a bit too much recently, so he complained a few more times.
"Just check it yourself, why are you complaining so much?" Kong Zhixi fooled him.
"Check, check, check. Why not just check? You two just do your work." Old Sui still looked reluctant.
Kong Zhixi walked to the door, stopped, stunned, and asked, "What couple?" Lao Sui put on gloves and replied absentmindedly, "You two." Then he started to cut up the body.
Kong Zhixi thought he was just tired from work and a little confused, so she didn't take it seriously and went back to the office to discuss the next step with Li Li.
After talking to Li Li for a few words about the case, the two had no idea about the next direction of the investigation.
Kong Zhixi lay on the table and said casually, "Lao Sui... No, did you... know me before?"
Li Li was a little surprised, thinking that she remembered the relationship between them. He was a little surprised and a little scared. "Did you...remember something?"
Kong Zhixi looked up. This old Li asked her what she remembered from time to time, but what did he want her to think about? He didn't say it. Could it be like when she first came?
"So what do you need me to remember?" she asked him back.
"Let me in, I want to find my son. What's wrong with your police station? You haven't figured out the case yet, and now my son is lying in there, but you still won't let me see him. Is this fair?" A woman's crying voice was heard outside the door, sharp and piercing.
Li Li hurried out to greet the crying and making a scene. Kong Zhixi teased, "You came back really quickly this time."
This time was different from the previous two times. The deceased was the only child in the family and his mother doted on him very much. After hearing about it, she rushed to the police station to confirm the news. Li Li took her to the reception room.
After a long conversation and comforting the mother, she felt better and wanted to see her son for the last time. However, Old Sui was still performing the autopsy, so Li Li could only try his best to delay it.
Kong Zhixi was bored, so she sat on the chair at Li Li's desk, staring at the computer screen in a daze. She was wondering if opening the things in the computer would trigger some mechanism or side plot.
She hesitated for a long time, and finally clicked on the file in the computer, but there was nothing in it, only some electrocardiogram pictures. This made Kong Zhixi even more confused. The things in his computer were almost the same as those in Lao Sui's computer. Why was this happening?
Seeing that there was nothing for her to do, she went home to buy groceries and cook. After eating, she took the insulated lunch box and delivered it to Li Li.
Because of the family members' disturbance, Li Li felt even more stressed. He stayed in the office all night, unable to eat or sleep.
I received the identity information and call records from Xiao Zhao in the morning, and quickly called Kong Zhixi and asked her to join the investigation.
Kong Zhixi looked at the call log list. She could tell at a glance that most of the names on it were girls, and here comes another playboy. After looking through it, she found that there was a girl named Tian Tian. Could it be such a coincidence?
She contacted this person named Tian Tian, who sounded like she was still asleep on the phone. When she asked something, she just said "umm" and "umm". She asked for her address and drove to meet her.
Li Li also took the information given by Xiao Zhao and visited the relatives and friends of this deceased named Pan Yu, hoping to find more information about this deceased that was related to the previous two deceased, and also hoping to find a clue about the murderer.
