Chapter 257 Suffering this calamity



Even when he was brought here by his political nemesis, he was indignant, angry, and resentful, which is why he suffered such severe punishment.

I was spoiled since I was a child and never suffered any hardship. This experience almost killed me.

The prisoner sighed and said:

“I was born in Kyoto and never suffered much hardship growing up. It’s because I’ve experienced too few setbacks that I’ve suffered this misfortune. It’s true, a life that’s too smooth isn’t good either.”

"Can you tell me your name?"

"The people I've trained will find a way to clear my name. If you ever see the light again, I'll not only get you out of here, but I'll also stand up for you and go with you to find the high-ranking official in Kyoto who put you in prison, and make him apologize to you!" The prisoner's words and actions certainly didn't seem very mature.

Perhaps it's because they really grew up in a greenhouse and never experienced any setbacks.

Hearing the prisoner's words, Zhou Yi remained completely unmoved.

He had heard enough of this kind of hope, which had little chance of being realized, in his previous life, so in this life, he was not bothered by it at all.

He doesn't care whether the prisoners are high-ranking officials or anyone else; he himself is in detention and can hardly protect himself.

Perhaps Zhou Yi will even get out before him.

at the same time.

On the other hand, Shen Bingyan checked into the resort that night, and only by using the power of the Shen family could she get the resort owner to send the resort's surveillance cameras to her room.

Shen Bingyan didn't sleep all night, personally reviewing every frame of the video.

Finally, as dawn broke, Shen Bingyan noticed something suspicious.

"Go and fetch this waiter."

Shen Bingyan paused the video and said to the bodyguard captain standing next to her.

The paused video focused on the faces of the adopted daughter and the waiter.

Shen Bingyan had just paid special attention to the time; her adopted daughter had only been in the manor for half an hour.

Now that she has gone to the villa, what could possibly be so important that she would leave in such a hurry?

While the bodyguard left the room to call for help, Shen Bingyan stood up from the sofa, moved her wrists, walked to the table, and drank her coffee in one gulp.

The bitterness of the coffee instantly dispelled her physical fatigue and made her mind, which hadn't rested all night, a little more awake.

It's impossible that Yu Anping's adopted daughter wouldn't know he was in Luzhou.

Therefore, the adopted daughter must know Zhou Yi. Did she see Zhou Yi at the villa and that's why she left in a hurry?

Looking at it from a deeper perspective, who ultimately benefits from this?

Who benefits most from Zhou Yi's imprisonment?

Without a doubt, that was her adopted daughter!

Shen Bingyan quickly determined the direction. She then sat back on the sofa and downloaded a software on her computer that could locate facial recognition.

Then, she located her adopted daughter's face on the camera, and all the surveillance cameras in the resort would then show the video of her adopted daughter appearing that day.

Ten minutes later.

The bodyguard captain brought in the waitress who had served the adopted daughter that day.

Shen Bingyan glanced at the waiter and pointed to her adopted daughter on the surveillance footage: "This person left the villa less than half an hour after entering. What was the reason?"

The poisoning of Mrs. Yang alarmed the general manager of the resort, who personally investigated the matter!

Therefore, every staff member at the resort has a deep memory of that day, fearing that one day the boss might suddenly ask about a certain matter or person, and if they can't answer, they will be fired.

Therefore, upon seeing the person on the screen, the waiter immediately recalled everything that had happened that day.

The waitress didn't know who the stunningly beautiful woman in front of her was, but seeing that all the surveillance cameras in the resort were in the woman's hands, she could guess that this woman's identity was very unusual.

After all, ordinary people can't access the resort's surveillance footage.

The waiter carefully recalled the details of the day and recounted everything that happened, occasionally interspersed with questions from Shen Bingyan.

"You said she had chest tightness before and asked you to get her some medicine?" Shen Bingyan asked.

The waiter nodded: "Yes, that's right, I remember it very clearly."

Shen Bingyan looked down at her phone, opened the map of the resort that the owner had sent her, and then asked, "Is the place where you let her rest not far from the kitchen?"

"Is the area where you decoct the medicine separate from the kitchen?"

"Does decocting medicine need to be done in a well-ventilated place?"

"The smell of medicine shouldn't be mixed with the smell of cooking oil, right?"

The waiter answered all of Shen Bingyan's questions carefully, and then Shen Bingyan asked her to continue.

She watched her adopted daughter get into the car and leave after the waiter had recounted the entire day's events.

Shen Bingyan asked her to sit on the sofa. She then switched the camera back to the homepage, revealing all the surveillance footage from the first floor of the villa.

"Look at these monitors on the screen, which one of them can directly see into the kitchen?"

"This one, this one, and this one—you can see a little bit of the kitchen from the side." Following the waiter's directions, they found three spots where the kitchen could be seen from the side.

There was no direct view of the kitchen; only a side view of the corner near the kitchen was captured.

Three surveillance cameras!

One is a surveillance camera at the back gate exit of the resort, which mainly captures the path leading from the back gate to the grass.

However, due to the wide surveillance range, a faint silhouette of people entering and exiting the kitchen can be seen in the upper right corner.

It's easy to miss if you don't look carefully.

Then there are two other areas on the road that are under surveillance. Since the resort mainly serves its guests, it will naturally capture the routes taken by the guests.

But you'll inevitably get to see some staff members in the photos.

Shen Bingyan carefully reviewed the three surveillance cameras, and finally... she discovered a clue!

The adopted daughter approached the kitchen the second time the waiter left to get the first-aid kit!

The upper right corner of that spot, which allows you to photograph the kitchen entrance, showed the adopted daughter wearing the same clothes.

"Miss, look, doesn't this dress look familiar...? It's the same style worn by the adopted daughter of the Qi family... Could it be her?"

Shen Bingyan did not respond.

A dozen seconds later, the clothes passed by the kitchen door again, presumably indicating that the poisoning had been successfully carried out.

The resort's staff wear uniforms and are easily identifiable.

Therefore, it can be determined that the people present at that time were not staff members of the resort.

Secondly, there are two surveillance cameras. One of them captured footage of the adopted daughter passing by the door. This footage cannot directly prove that the adopted daughter poisoned the food, but the kitchen is right there. Why would a guest go to the kitchen?

Another surveillance video captured a waiter leading his adopted daughter to the back garden when the adopted daughter's expression suddenly changed drastically.

Because the adopted daughter was standing directly in front of the surveillance camera at the time, the footage was very clear, and it was evident that she glanced ahead first!

Immediately afterwards, his eyes narrowed sharply, and then he clutched his chest and said he felt unwell.
