For an unmarried man to adopt a woman, the age difference between the two must be at least 40 years. This was announced in 1991 and implemented in 1992.

If you go online and look at some current cases, you will realize how far-sighted this regulation was.

However, not many people know about this, not only many ordinary people do not know, but many police officers also do not know, because this falls within the scope of the Civil Code. (The new Civil Code inherits this article)

Therefore, the girl could not possibly be the legal heir of the deceased in any way.

"Bai Song, don't think like that," Sun Jie interrupted Bai Song's thoughts again: "I haven't studied inheritance law either, and I don't know what you mentioned. This means that the little girl doesn't know either."

"That's right," Bai Song nodded, "I was a little self-righteous. In this case, we have to think from the suspect's perspective. So, the little girl has a motive."

"Well, your thinking makes sense." Political Commissar Wang immediately agreed.

After Bai Song said this, the atmosphere at the scene immediately eased.

Originally, after hearing Bai Song's words, Political Commissar Wang and others here were shocked, feeling that so many people were thinking in the wrong direction. But after Bai Song's words, the conversation became smooth again, indicating that the local investigation direction was not wrong.

"But you can't think about the problem so simply. The truth of the case depends on the evidence. I'm going to go to the scene to take a look." Bai Song said, "I have to meet this little girl too."

"Yes, Captain Bai is right. Although the little girl is small, it's hard to say if she doesn't get along with the deceased. There are many young and smart people nowadays." Political Commissar Wang said, "You eat slowly first. I'll go and arrange some work with them."

Soon there were only four people left in the room. There was no need to feel embarrassed about eating, so everyone started eating right away.

Hand-pulled lamb...

"By the way, did you say that on purpose just now?" Liu Shuyuan asked.

"Isn't this just a way for the local authorities to deal with the inspection? Do you really think I have a good temper?" Bai Song said, "It's not good to have too good a temper, but I can say polite words."

"That's right. It was originally reported as suicide, but as soon as we arrived they said they would reopen the investigation... The county is really irresponsible." Liu Shuyuan nodded and took a bite of the meat: "But to be honest, this meat is really good. Tianhua can't eat this kind of meat."

Bai Song gave the locals some time, but they only ate for twenty minutes before leaving here and heading towards the scene.

On snowy days, it is easy to leave traces, but it is also easy to cover them up.

When he was led to the scene, Bai Song discovered that in addition to the entrance door, there were several people searching for traces on the top of and around the surrounding walls.

There were as many as six surveyors, and it was indeed not easy in the icy and snowy weather.

Bai Song was originally a little unhappy, but after seeing the situation at the scene, he was speechless.

In the temperature of minus ten degrees, they squatted outside and searched for clues bit by bit, wearing only thin rubber gloves, which were not warm at all. These were not the rubber gloves for washing clothes, but the ones for surgery. Wang Huadong and Sun Jie often wore them, and their hands could not bear it after being exposed to the temperature outdoors for a few minutes.

Humans are actually not capable of empathy, so when you put it this way, most people would think, "What's the big deal!" However, if you put your hand into the freezer of a refrigerator (minus 18 degrees Celsius), most people would not be able to stand it for even a minute.

Bai Song and his three companions were almost frozen through after walking outdoors for a few minutes. He saw that the hands of an elderly police officer on the investigation had turned purple from the cold.

"Stop for a moment and let everyone get in the car to keep warm." Bai Song shouldn't have given the order directly, after all, Political Commissar Wang was the big leader, but he still said it directly.

When Political Commissar Wang heard this, he stretched out his hand in his tweed coat and gave some instructions, and everyone slowly left the investigation site.

Fortunately it was daytime, as the case was reported last night, so you can imagine the conditions for the investigation.

"Political Commissar Wang, let's go to the scene and take a look." Bai Song asked, "Where is the body now? Is it at the county bureau? I'll send two comrades over there to take a look."

"Yes, at the county bureau." Political Commissar Wang nodded: "Then I will arrange a car immediately."

Bai Song was afraid that Sun Jie would have trouble handling things alone, after all, this trip was an inspection, so he asked Liu Shuyuan to accompany him. He followed Huadong into the scene.

The deceased died in the bedroom of his home. It is said that he died in a painful manner and died from taking pesticides. Generally speaking, if someone takes pesticides and has no external injuries caused by beatings, tying up, etc. beforehand, the possibility of suicide is very high.

Pesticides are not like the cyanide and biological toxins used for poisoning that Bai Song had encountered before. Generally, the lethal dose is relatively large and the effects are not immediate.

Simply put, pesticides are used to kill insects and weeds, not to kill people. Any pesticide that can "kill instantly" cannot be produced at will.

For example, paraquat was very effective, but it was discontinued due to its high toxicity.

Of course, even paraquat can not kill people immediately, and paraquat is notorious for torturing people. Paraquat itself has no taste, but in order to prevent people from drinking it, some particularly disgusting taste is added. If the amount involved reaches a lethal level, even gastric lavage will be useless. The poisoning will last for a few days, jaundice will appear on the third day, worsening on the fourth day, and a ventilator will be needed on the fifth day. Living for a week gives enough time for pain and regret, but death is inevitable, and all organs are not worth donating.

It can be said that it was discontinued due to drinking.

Similarly, the pesticide that the farmer drank could not directly cause death like cyanide. This is why most deaths from drinking pesticides are suicides, because if someone forces you to drink it, as long as you can move, you will definitely go to the hospital!

No signs of struggle were found at the scene, and the autopsy also reportedly found no signs of struggle. Bai Song believed this, and he did not need a forensic doctor to find out. Any criminal police officer who conducted a scene inspection could find it out.

The scene is very simple, which is consistent with the situation in the homes of local herdsmen.

The house was just as cold, so Bai Song didn't search much and just let Huadong investigate everything.

There were no signs of a struggle, that was indeed the case.

"There are a lot of footprints in the house. Even if we all wear foot covers, our movements inside will still have an impact on the scene. In addition to ours, there must be at least four or five people walking through this house, and most of them are adult women." Wang Huadong said.

"Mostly they are women... Has your footprint investigation reached this level now?" Bai Song asked.

"If I can't figure it out, then forget it. There's no wind or rain in the house, and the floor here is concrete." Wang Hua said as he looked for clues in the east.

"Is this the life of a wealthy bachelor in the village..." Bai Song murmured, not knowing what he was thinking.
