Chapter 42 Cases 3-10

Asking Captain Hu for help, Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo put Minister Hua's body into the room at the end of the first floor. Director Jiang and Secretary Shen also followed, standing in the corridor and waiting.

It's okay if it's not my turn, but when it's my turn, Captain Hu also became terrified when he saw the corpses in this room, and left the room after a while.Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo were left standing in the room for a long time, feeling a little depressed, and did not speak for a while.

The whole room is not big, and now it is full of corpses, standing and lying down, like a corpse exhibition hall, extremely depressing.

"I'm sorry." Lu Yuanzhe apologized to Minister Hua through the glass cabinet, "We should be more cautious."

Cheng Mo also sighed softly. The central air conditioner is still on here. Although the freezer is cold, the interior of the room is a bit hot, which makes people feel anxious.

Because of the heat, he tugged on his collar, suddenly stopped, and frowned uncontrollably.

Not sure if this was a suspicious point, he didn't say it for the time being, but only glanced at a few people in the corridor after going out.These few are all huddled in their thick clothes, staring at the corner of the wall in escapism.

After putting away the body, they returned to the dormitory building.Regarding the cause of death, Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo agreed that it was poisoning. After checking the things Minister Hua brought to their room, Cheng Mo picked up the bottle of antihypertensive medicine.

"There was only one pill left last night. If he didn't bring the medicine bottle, we wouldn't be able to confirm whether the empty bottle was empty last night." Cheng Mo put the empty bottle into the evidence bag, thinking it was necessary to check For a moment, "This kind of medicine with a shell will not be poisoned immediately, and it will take effect after falling asleep."

"Yeah." Lu Yuanzhe made an association with this delayed poisoning, "It's a bit similar to the structure of the water bag in Yan Ye's case."

If there is a first time, there will be a second time. Maybe the young master likes to design some mechanism to distort the time of the incident, and leave it to the people under him to complete it.

Back in the cafeteria, Sister Zhao had already prepared breakfast for everyone. Some people were already eating, while others had no appetite, so they dawdled on the side dishes in their bowls.

Even if the Man-Han banquet is here, everyone is not interested. Most people don't say a word, and they have a tasteless breakfast.Only Minister Tao was furious, pointing at Director Jiang's nose and scolding: "It's all like this, why don't you tell the truth?"

After cursing for a while, Director Jiang faltered and dragged Minister Tao to a corner, saying that he had already told Lu Yuanzhe about the funding.

Although the sound is not loud, but the cafeteria is so big, everyone can hear it.Cao Zhijie, who was on the sidelines, listened silently for a while, and finally understood. Once he understood what happened, he couldn't help standing up and insulting Director Jiang together with Minister Tao.

Cao Zhijie accused him of how he had the heart to harm a few young people, while Minister Tao swears over and over again, and was finally pulled away by Minister Jin.

"I didn't do what happened next!" Director Jiang argued with Minister Tao, "Can I sneak into the room without anyone noticing? If I have this ability, will I make He Zhigang's matter like this? He We still don't know how he died!"

"Who knows what the hell you're doing, if you weren't willing to negotiate with him, things wouldn't have turned out like this." Minister Tao scolded.According to what he meant, it wasn't that He Zhigang hadn't discussed it with them all this time, it was that he had discussed it, but they never had a unified solution.

Things are already like this, and now they can only sort out the confession and wait for reinforcements.Waiting for the forensic doctor to conduct an autopsy and then cooperate with the on-site investigation, the murderer will always be found.It is impossible for this series of actions not to leave traces, everyone just lacks a technician.

Lu Yuanzhe and Captain Hu sat in the corner for a while, looked at a few people who were cursing not far away, and sighed.

"Do you know that the funding chain of the research institute cannot be rounded up?" He asked Captain Hu.

"How can I go as a security guard?" Captain Hu shrugged, sounding like the truth.

"Don't go back to your room today, it's much safer with us." Lu Yuanzhe persuaded those who were worried that the banquet would not stop, "It's best not to eat anything that everyone hasn't touched."

Although Captain Hu was a little timid, he still said harshly: "Come on, although I'm just a security guard, I'm still an old captain after all, so I can still be fooled?"

"Don't let me know that you did it!" Minister Tao on the opposite side was still scolding Director Jiang, and gave Secretary Shen a squinting look, "Don't think I don't know about the shitty things about you two."

Director Jiang and Secretary Shen looked at each other in embarrassment, which immediately stunned Minister Jin. He looked back and forth in surprise: "You two...?"

Minister Tao ignored the situation, and stared at Director Jiang: "You have to remember, none of us are clean, so don't think about you running away alone."

The eyes of everyone present were attracted by this sentence, including Xiao Qiu who has been absent.For a moment, both Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo felt as if they had returned to the first night of the dinner party, and everyone was concerned about the cause of He Zhigang's death.

Are even researchers involved in this patent peddling?Lu Yuanzhe frowned.

Director Jiang didn't speak, and finally left the corner of the cafeteria, dragging Secretary Shen upstairs.

I checked all the invaded rooms as I thought in the morning, and found no trace of reinstalling the anti-theft chain. It seems that the other party really does not have this kind of superb technology to install the anti-theft chain through the crack of the door.

"There are only six people left, who do you think is the murderer?" Cheng Mo asked Lu Yuanzhe in a low voice.

"Who is the murderer can only be known after cracking the way to enter the house." Lu Yuanzhe exhaled lightly, and looked at Cheng Mo, "If it was you, how can you enter the house?"

The anti-theft chain has not been touched, because it has not been renovated for several years, and some of them are rusty. If you touch it a few times, it will leave traces. It must have nothing to do with it.

Cheng Mo bit his lower lip and thought for a moment, then finally shook his head.After thinking about it, he finally expressed the suspicious point that suddenly occurred to him in the laboratory building: "There is one thing that I find a bit strange. When we went there on the first day, although He Zhigang died, everyone was still busy with the experiment, right? ? But from the next day, no one did the experiment anymore.”

"En." Lu Yuanzhe nodded and waited patiently for him to continue.

"The heating here was cut off that night, but there is a central air conditioner with a constant temperature over there, which is supposed to be much warmer than here, but no one stays there." Cheng Mo was not sure if this was suspicious, hesitating He narrated, "When they asked us, they only asked if they wanted a charging treasure, and they didn't ask if we wanted to go over to get warm for a while."

"Well." Lu Yuanzhe nodded, "Actually, they have not welcomed us near that building since the first day."

It was just a necessary procedure to show them, but he could feel that Director Jiang didn't want them to get entangled in the experiment, maybe it had something to do with reselling.

"However, when we investigate technology reselling, it has nothing to do with this building. This is a problem that can only be discovered by the economic investigation team. Will we come to the conclusion that they sell technology just by looking at those instruments?" Cheng Mo looked at him, wondering It is a matter of reselling, "This logic is not smooth."

"...Well." Lu Yuanzhe fell into thought, "Also, why doesn't everyone want us to go to that building? They even prefer to suffer the cold in the dormitory building themselves."

Temporarily unable to think of a reason, they could only go back to Captain Hu and stay with him as much as possible, unwilling to expand the scope of the victim.

Captain Hu was also very nervous while sitting, and enthusiastically discussed with them how to sneak into the room.It's a pity that he didn't have any good ideas, just like Director Jiang said, if you can get in here, how dangerous is the hotel.

The quarrel stopped at noon, everyone ate in silence, then quickly left the restaurant and went back to their rooms.

Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo invited Captain Hu to sit in their room and take a nap by the way. Captain Hu was half asleep and half awake on duty last night, so it's time for a lunch break.

Nothing happened. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the desk lamp that Lu Yuanzhe borrowed ran out of electricity, and the lighting in the room was poor. They moved to the dining room and continued to sort out clues.Everyone else was in their own rooms, only Sister Zhao came out to sit for a while, and gave them some melon seeds.

"Are you guys talking about the case? I put on my earphones when I was talking about the case. I can't hear you." It was not time to prepare the dishes, but Sister Zhao didn't want to go back to the room, so she accosted them, "It's a little difficult for me to be alone in the room. I'm afraid, I'm relieved that you are here."

"It's okay, it's okay." Lu Yuanzhe smiled, and didn't reject her coming to sit, "It's just right, we also have something to ask you."

"Tell me." Sister Zhao nodded earnestly. She wanted to sit down for a while, but she couldn't help eating sunflower seeds after a while.

"You also know that the criminal sneaked into the room to commit the crime. Do you think there are any hidden dangers in your room?" Lu Yuanzhe also asked casually, not wanting her to feel that sitting here was in the way.

"It's scary if it doesn't exist." Sister Zhao exaggeratedly said with emotion, "I discussed it with Captain Hu for a long time when we were picking vegetables in the morning, and we both felt that people can't sneak in, it can only be haunted."

It seems that when everyone is preparing dishes, they still discuss the topic of ghosts and ghosts. Lu Yuanzhe can't laugh or cry, a research institute that studies high-tech, how can one or two be so superstitious.

"I know you don't believe this. If you don't believe it, there are rumors." Sister Zhao said, getting closer and lowering her voice, making it even more mysterious. "I know, the prisoner left the room in the middle of the night."

"Huh?" Lu Yuanzhe looked at him in surprise, "Why do you say that?"

"Because there will be less food in the kitchen." Sister Zhao replied, and glanced at the corner of the restaurant, "Not only is there less food, but the pot was stolen."

Cheng Mo frowned, and turned back through his notes.

Lu Yuanzhe recalled the first night when he went to the cafeteria to buy ice water: "You asked me on the first night, 'also' to find something to eat, is there something short in the kitchen?"

"Yeah." Sister Zhao nodded, "I didn't pay attention at first, everyone drank and staggered, and it's normal if they didn't eat well. Later, the pot and instant noodles were gone, so I was shocked."

"Then who do you think it might be?" Lu Yuanzhe asked Sister Zhao.

"This is the scary part." Sister Zhao looked at him nervously again, "Neither, I hate people stealing things the most, so I went to every room to collect garbage and smell it, and there was no instant noodles. The smell, my nose is clear. Besides, the power is out here, what's the use of stealing an electric pot, can mana generate electricity?"

Cheng Mo's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Lu Yuanzhe, who also glanced at him, signaling him not to speak out now.

The answer is already coming out, if not on the island, they should have thought of it a long time ago.

No wonder the prisoners had to hang anti-theft chains on the door without locking it, just to let them focus on this suspicious point and not think in other directions.

It's just such a three-story building. Because of the heavy rain, everyone is almost restricted to move around in the building. This answer is really ridiculous.

"It's not based on reasoning..." After thinking about it, Lu Yuanzhe muttered.
