Even if Jia Dongxu still had a chance of survival, Li Haoyu would have been able to save him, but now it was too late. Although he was very capable, he could not bring the dead back to life like a god. The factory director Yang and the deputy factory director Li had gloomy expressions.

Director Yang asked loudly, "What happened?" The two directors were all responsible for the workers' deaths.

Li Haoyu looked around and found Yi Zhonghai hiding behind the crowd. When he saw that Li Haoyu noticed him, he quickly lowered his eyes.

His brows furrowed slightly. Could it be that Jia Dongxu was really murdered by Yi Zhonghai? Yi Zhonghai had a strong motive to kill Jia Dongxu. Just thinking about Qin Huairu's affair with Yi Zhonghai could arouse such malice. Passing the fitter assessment at the beginning seemed to give Jia Dongxu a chance to be reborn, but Qin Huairu was always a widow, which once again dealt a heavy blow to his fate.

His eyes fell on the damaged machine not far away. As a mechanic, Li Haoyu had already seen the secret. "Director Yang, there is something strange about Jia Dongxu's death." Li Haoyu directly stated his discovery, shocking everyone.

“How could this be?!” Upon hearing this, the factory manager was quite shocked, and the workers watching at the scene were also stunned.

Could it be that Jia Dongxu did not mean to harm, but had a bigger purpose?

"Don't let anyone touch the machine. Find a professional to check it immediately. Such a sharp drill bit broke into three pieces and stuck out, which at least means that three screws and two clips were damaged at the same time. The drill bit can still fly out and hurt people, which is obviously not a normal state. It is unlikely that a machine will have three screws and two clips loose at the same time and the drill bit is damaged without anyone knowing. It must be human sabotage." Li Haoyu looked serious.

In the crowd, Yi Zhonghai was shocked. How did Li Haoyu know about it?

Yi Zhonghai panicked. A doctor knows how to operate machinery? He wondered what was going on.

Factory Director Yang and Deputy Factory Director Li also realized the seriousness of the situation. If someone really tampered with it, it would be a serious problem.

"Everyone, disperse. Don't approach the machine." Li Huaide hurriedly ordered, "You, ask the security department to maintain order. You, go to the engineering department immediately to find Engineer Wang and ask him to come immediately."

Seeing Li Huaide taking action before him, Director Yang was a little dissatisfied, but he also felt that the matter was urgent and did not say much.

Suddenly, Li Haoyu felt a sense of danger approaching. He caught sight of Yi Zhonghai behind the crowd and was sure that it was his doing.

This heartless old man is indeed dangerous and obviously has murderous intentions towards me as well.

Li Haoyu laughed secretly in his heart.

In this quadrangle,

Ever since Jia Dongxu won the title of fitter in a technical competition, Jia Zhang has been showing off everywhere with pride, saying how successful her son is, earning 45.20 yuan a month, who can compare to him! She seemed to want to praise him as the most outstanding young man in the world.

At this moment, she was arguing with an old lady in the front yard.

"Who is Jia Dongxu's family member?" At this time, a worker walked into the yard and asked.

"Are you looking for our Dongxu? He is working in the steel plant now." Jia Zhang replied.

"Auntie, something happened in Jia Dongxu's factory and he asked me to tell the family the news," the worker explained.

"You damned rascal, you've brought disaster upon our whole family. Our Dongxu just got his machinist certificate, how could something unexpected happen to him?" Jia Zhang cursed angrily.

Her intuition told her that Jia Dongxu was really in trouble, but she was unwilling to admit it.

The worker said angrily: "I informed you with good intentions, why do you have to say bad things? He has been sent to the hospital, you should go and see him as soon as possible." After saying that, he turned and left.

"That's impossible. Dongxu will be fine. Nothing will happen to him." Jia Zhang's body trembled.

The news about Jia Dongxu spread quickly throughout the courtyard.

When the deaf old woman heard this, her expression was as calm as a rock.

"Old man Yi finally took action?"

Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment when she heard the news. Although she hated Jia Dongxu and even looked forward to his end, this sudden news caught her off guard.

Although life was difficult, they could still get by. But now that they have lost Jia Dongxu, their only financial support, what will happen next?

Her face gradually turned pale. Looking at Jia Zhang's anxious look, Qin Huairu couldn't help but hold back her tears, her eyes were already filled with tears.

"Mom, let's go to the hospital to visit Dongxu as soon as possible," Qin Huairu said softly.

"What are you looking at? Jia Dongxu has been rescued and taken to the factory. You are not allowed to come near." Jia Zhang shouted angrily, "How dare you curse my son, you jinx? I despise you."

"Ah..." Qin Huairu didn't dare to fight back and covered her face in panic.

Jia Zhang kept punching and kicking Qin Huairu, and Qin Huairu screamed in pain.

On the other side of the steel mill, Engineer Wang from the Engineering Department conducted an inspection of the equipment with a frown on his face.

Director Yang quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Wang, is there a problem?"

"There is a problem." Engineer Wang responded: "This drill bit has been scrapped for a long time, and the machine has been tampered with. One screw loose is understandable, but three screws loose and two locks fall off unnaturally. This is not a small problem."

"It may have broken down due to long-term use." Workshop director Guo Dali evaded the question.

"Impossible." Engineer Wang refuted firmly: "All the machines in the workshop were inspected and repaired over the weekend, and there are clear records. It is obviously man-made damage."

Director Yang and Deputy Director Li's faces suddenly turned gloomy, and they immediately asked someone to contact the police to investigate the matter.

The insult suffered by Jia Dongxu has been sent to the hospital for an autopsy.

The police then questioned the employees in the workshop.

Li Haoyu returned to the infirmary.

Although he hated Jia Dongxu, Li Haoyu knew in his heart that Yi Zhonghai had caused his death. Even if he hated him, he couldn't bear to see the price of a life disappear. After all, the person was gone, and the grudges were no longer important.

This is indeed sad. He married a pregnant wife, and this was the end of her before she hooked up with his master. Now he is dead again after his wife was murdered by his master.

Imagine that after Jia Dongxu's death, his grave may soon be covered with green, and Qin Huairu's life will become more unrestrained and uninhibited.

However, these are other people's business. Li Haoyu still cannot understand it. How can he really know the thoughts and motives hidden in the hearts of people like Yi Zhonghai?

At this time, the detective walked into the infirmary to look for Li Haoyu. Because Li Haoyu and Jia Dongxu lived in the same yard, he came to ask for details.

In fact, when questioning Yi Zhonghai, the topic of possible enemies or grudges that Jia Dongxu might have came up, and Yi Zhonghai naturally mentioned Li Haoyu.

"Comrade Li, according to our understanding, you seem to have some disputes with Jia Dongxu. Can you talk about it?" said the police.

Li Haoyu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and then he said frankly: "Yes, there is a deep grudge between Jia Dongxu and I. To be honest, my family's family business has been a bit bumpy. My parents were capitalists and worked in the Sijiucheng Pharmaceutical Factory, which is the Li Family Pharmaceutical Factory. Later, they donated it and took my parents abroad for a honeymoon."

"Until I lived with my grandfather in the No. 95 courtyard, Jia Dongxu and his gang didn't harass me too much until my grandfather passed away the year before last. Since then, they have joined forces to seize our family's property. I didn't want to pay attention to these trivial matters, but they became more and more unscrupulous and often caused trouble. I called the police several times, and Jia Dongxu, Yi Zhonghai and his mother were all dealt with by the police station."

"They usually curse each other in private, that's about it."

The police recorded Li Haoyu's answers while listening to them. Obviously, they did not believe it easily and judged that Li Haoyu had nothing to do with Jia Dongxu's death. First, he was a doctor and rarely participated in workshop affairs. Second, doctors should be more familiar with different work contents than technical workers.

But the police officer then asked: "You live in the same courtyard, do you know if Jia Dongxu has any enemies?"

Li Haoyu slowly replied: "I am not the only one who has been resented by Jia Dongxu. If we talk about the specific reasons and motives that can be linked to him, I think there is one."

"Which one?" The detective suddenly focused.

"That person should be Yi Zhonghai from the fitter workshop of our steel rolling mill. He should be a level five fitter now. Jia Dongxu was once his master. As far as I know, you should already know about it." Li Haoyu said.

The policeman then became more serious and asked again: "How do you explain this? Aren't they a master and apprentice relationship?"

"Oh, they are the master and the apprentice. But not long ago, they were caught doing something ugly in the cellar by people in our yard. I remember that Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu's wife were naked at that time. I believe your police station knew about their affair. They were even detained for a period of time. Many people in the factory also knew about it."

"Sir, you are right. It was Deputy Captain Sun who led the team at that time." A police officer said, "No wonder I felt that Yi Zhonghai's face was so familiar."

"Also, that night, Jia Dongxu wanted to keep things quiet and gave Yi Zhonghai more than 2,000 yuan in private. I found out that he woke up the neighbors by knocking on the pot. These are all verifiable deeds."

"You are so brave to say it straight out." The police captain said in a dissatisfied tone.

"It's nothing. I didn't do anything illegal. Besides, they have hurt me before, so it's not too much to teach them a lesson," Li Haoyu responded.

"Also, the person who was playing tricks in the locksmith area must be very familiar with the tools. Yi Zhonghai is a strong suspect. However..."

"What a pity?" the police captain asked.

"Can we check fingerprints?" Li Haoyu asked.

"fingerprint?"

"It's the fingerprint left by the finger." Li Haoyu stretched out his hand to demonstrate: "Everyone's fingerprint is different. Current technology makes it difficult to detect fingerprints on objects. Foreign countries can extract a person's fingerprints from the objects they have touched for comparison. If they match, the real culprit can be quickly identified."

"You know this too?" the police captain asked in surprise.

He had read some foreign materials that mentioned fingerprint identification, but it had not yet been refined enough to be used in criminal investigations in China. It was said that it was not until the 70s that it was gradually adopted.

"I read the Sherlock Holmes series of books when I was a child and learned about this," Li Haoyu replied.

The police captain also felt sorry for this information. If fingerprints could be used, it would undoubtedly be faster to identify the murderer. Now the clues on the equipment are probably destroyed, and engineers and technicians have carried out the first inspection today.

"We will investigate what you said. If you have other information, please let us know." The police captain promised.

"Wait a moment." Seeing the police preparing to leave, Li Haoyu stopped them.
