Hongqi Factory is located in Orange Valley of Dayu Mountain.

When the factory was first built, a large mountainous area was designated, including the entire Orange Valley, which was about four or five kilometers in circumference, and it was fenced off with barbed wire.

Of course, in many places the barbed wire is either damaged over time or vandalized.

The woods where the incident occurred and the stream within them both belong to the Hongqi Factory's territory.

Jiang Yuping gave a lukewarm response to her husband's question.

"Yes, the body is in our medical room. Why should you, a workshop director, care about this?"

Qiu Jingwen quickly smiled and explained:

"Yu Ping, I'm just curious. They said the deceased had a scar on his face? Is that true?"

Jiang Yuping told her husband without any emotion.

"Qiu Jingwen, Wei Hong performed the autopsy. She's right next to me. You can ask her for details."

As Jiang Yuping spoke, she directly handed the phone to Wei Hong.

Ever since her husband took three thousand yuan and refused to tell her what he was going to do with it, Jiang Yuping has been angry with Qiu Jingwen.

Wei Hong glanced at her best friend and sensed that her conversation with her husband wasn't very sweet, and they seemed to be only half-attending to each other. She thought to herself that this seemingly perfect couple must have had some kind of conflict at home.

So she took the phone and started complaining to Qiu Jingwen.

"Hey, Director Qiu, what did you do to my Yuping?"

Qiu Jingwen responded with a smile:

"No, Yuping is so good, how could I be bad to her?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? Yuping hasn't said a word since she started work; she's hiding something on her mind."

"Wei Hong, we're really doing well. Tell me about the deceased."

To be honest, Qiu Jingwen felt a little agitated when he heard that an old man with a scar on his face had been killed.

He deduced that the old man with the scar on his face must be Liu Han.

But he had to be sure. Once he was sure it was Liu Han, the rattlesnake in his heart would be no longer a threat, and he would no longer be afraid of anyone revealing his identity as a spy, because only Liu Han had maintained a single-line contact with him back then.

Of course, Qiu Jingwen also considered that even if someone knew his identity, it should be Liu Han's superior.

In his plan to silence Liu Han, he intended to kill him.

He just didn't expect that Liu Han only asked him for three thousand yuan and didn't give him any special tasks, which is why Qiu Jingwen stopped the killing.

After all, murder is a capital offense, and if one's identity as a spy is exposed, one may be treated as a reactionary, and reactionaries may be executed. Even if one is not executed, one may spend the rest of one's life, or even decades, in prison.

When Wei Hong heard Qiu Jingwen inquire about the deceased's condition, she didn't think too much about it.

But instead of telling Qiu Jingwen the autopsy results, she asked curiously:

"Director Qiu, why are you concerned about the deceased? The deceased wasn't your brother or friend."

"Wei Hong, I heard that she is an old employee of the factory. I want to know if she is a retired employee of our workshop three?"

"Director Qiu, I just attended the case-solving team meeting. Liang Damin said that the old man is not a long-time employee of our factory at all, but we still don't know where he got our factory's work uniform from."

"Wei Hong, I also heard that the deceased had a scar on his face?"

After all, Qiu Jingwen was the workshop director and also her best friend's husband, so Wei Hong told him the autopsy results truthfully.

Finally, she added one more point:

“Old Qiu, do you remember that time we were eating in the cafeteria and there was an old man sitting at the table behind you? You even turned around and looked at him. That was the old man.”

Qiu Jingwen confirmed that the deceased was Liu Han.

He just couldn't understand how Liu Han could have been murdered.

Moreover, from the information in Wei Hong's phone call, Qiu Jingwen understood that the murderer used potassium cyanide to kill Liu Han and then drove a nail into the back of his head, which made him feel even more horrified and complicated matters.

The question is, who would target Liu Han?

Moreover, the methods used were so terrifying and cruel?

Before hanging up the phone with Wei Hong, Qiu Jingwen said:

"Wei Hong, let Yu Ping answer the phone."

Wei Hong then handed the phone to Jiang Yuping.

Jiang Yuping took the phone, but before she could speak, Qiu Jingwen said:

"Yuping, I have a small hand injury. I'll go to the infirmary right away to get it bandaged up by you."

Upon hearing that her husband was injured, Jiang Yuping was immediately horrified.

"Jingwen, how did you get hurt? Come to the infirmary quickly."

No one knew that Qiu Jingwen, who was inspecting the work in the workshop, was naturally extremely agitated when he heard that an old man with a scar on his face had been murdered.

After all, someone had removed the hidden danger and time bomb from his heart.

In my excitement, I didn't notice and cut my finger on the lathe.

Zheng Yanshi, who was inspecting the work with him, noticed that the director had a cut on his finger and told Qiu Jingwen to go to the infirmary to get it bandaged.

Back in the workshop office, eager to know what had happened, Qiu Jingwen called his wife, Jiang Yuping.

He wanted to verify whether the deceased was an elderly man with scars, and whether he was Liu Han.

Seeing his wife getting nervous, Qiu Jingwen quickly comforted her.

"Yuping, it's just a minor scratch, it's nothing, don't worry."

Jiang Yuping shouted at him:

"Oh dear, Qiu Jingwen, you're so careless. What if you get tetanus? Come here right now, I'll bandage you up."

After saying that, Jiang Yuping slammed down the phone.

Wei Hong was very confused. Her best friend had just been rather unfriendly and lukewarm towards her husband, but now she was extremely worried.
