After instructing Xiao Wang to investigate the research funding for Shushuling, Li Nan continued to study the Blood Rose video.
"So, have we really overlooked something?"
Li Nan's obviously small-capacity brain began to work at high speed, filtering through scenes of Peng Yuanyuan frame by frame in her mind.
Suddenly, an inconspicuous detail caught Li Nan's attention!
Paper cups! Just paper cups!
In May of this year, Li Nan and Qin Wen went to Peng Yuanyuan's house under the pretext of visiting, but actually inspected Peng Yuanyuan's villa.
Li Nan recalled that Gao Siming had sent the three of them to the living room to wait for dinner.
Peng Yuanyuan doesn't drink tea, and her family doesn't often have guests, so she doesn't keep any drinks on hand.
The sugary drinks she bought in advance were still kept in the refrigerator in the kitchen!
As for the model of the paper cup that Qin Wen remembered, it was the mineral water paper cup that Peng Yuanyuan gave her when she went to the studio on the second floor!
Once a habit is formed, it is very difficult to break!
Peng Yuanyuan doesn't like drinking tea, but there were obvious traces of tea being brewed in the paper cups found in the basement of the tea processing factory!
Peng Yuanyuan doesn't drink tea, and no tea leaves were found in the basement. So, where did the tea leaves and tea dregs in the paper cup come from?
Li Nan then recalled that people are inherently lazy. For disposable items like paper cups, people often stick to one brand and don't change their minds for a long time.
Especially for a wealthy woman like Peng Yuanyuan, she wouldn't switch brands just because other companies offer discounts or promotions, or because of a small price reduction.
Because she's lazy, too lazy to change!
So what if someone with ulterior motives found out about this detail?
Obtaining the owner's fingerprints from everyday household waste is not a difficult task.
Regarding the extraction of Peng Yuanyuan's fingerprints, apart from the last paper cup, the first two times, obvious secondary adhesion was found, which is very likely that it was deliberately added by someone with ulterior motives.
So, could the fingerprints on the paper cup be the same?
Peng Yuanyuan did touch those paper cups, but she doesn't drink tea herself.
Under what circumstances would someone not drink the tea in their cup, but still touch it intentionally?
That's when it's time to clean up the cups!
In Gao Siming and Peng Yuanyuan's relationship, Peng Yuanyuan was always in a dominant position. Would a young lady from a wealthy family help her boyfriend, whom she looked down upon, clean up the cups?
Definitely not!
Under what circumstances would Peng Yuanyuan do this?
A guest, a distinguished guest, or someone above her superior!
Or perhaps, a teacher?
Record this point of doubt in a memo.
Li Nan rubbed her overworked head. "If Peng Yuanyuan was really framed, what was the motive? Who is this person?"
New suspicious points have been discovered, suggesting that Peng Yuanyuan may very well still be framed.
But what's the use of that?
Or, why don't we just go and ask her directly?
Once the idea entered Li Nan's mind, it grew stronger and stronger until it became unstoppable.
Indeed, instead of letting my imagination run wild in An Ding Si, I might as well go to the mental hospital and talk to her face to face. Maybe I'll make some new discoveries?
Without further ado, Li Nan briefly explained the situation to Xiong Sifu and rushed off to the mental hospital.
Visiting a mental hospital is different from a regular inquiry; it does not require two police officers to be present at the same time.
Moreover, Li Nan is only here today to confirm a few of his guesses, so he can go there himself!
While his colleagues in the department were reviewing Case 1001, he was the only "idle" person who could slack off everywhere.
The Tanhua City Mental Hospital is located in the northwest corner of the new urban area, and Li Nan has naturally visited it many times.
On the way, I had already communicated with Dean Fu, but the dean was not at the hospital today. He would arrange for a nurse to receive Li Nan.
Nearly an hour later, Li Nan entered the hospital and arrived at the hospital's backyard without any obstacles.
There were four security guards at the entrance. After crossing the thick protective gate, Li Nan entered the backyard.
This is a special zone where people like Peng Yuanyuan and Liu Xiangdong are detained.
Aside from the guards at the gate, there's not much special about this backyard.
A four-story building occupying one acre of land was originally designed to house 100 special prisoners.
The bottom two floors are for male prisoners, while the third and fourth floors are reserved for female prisoners.
However, since its completion, the maximum number of people imprisoned at any one time has only been a little over twenty.
Currently, only a dozen or so special individuals live sparsely in the four-story building.
Peng Yuanyuan's "new residence" is the first room on the second floor next to the stairs.
Why the second floor?
Please, a floor can house 25 prisoners, which is only a dozen or so people in total. Even if there is a difference between men and women, is it really necessary to follow the rules and regulations so strictly?
Accompanied by a dedicated nurse arranged by Dean Fu, Li Nan arrived at Peng Yuanyuan's room.
The room, which is about 3.5 meters long and wide, is divided into two sections, one larger than the other, with a partition wall in between. This allows doctors and nurses to observe the "patients" and also increases their safety level.
Upon entering the house, Li Nan immediately spotted Peng Yuanyuan sitting blankly on the bed in the inner room.
It's been a long time since we last saw Peng Yuanyuan, who is only forty years old, but her face is already covered with wrinkles.
In detention cells and prisons, it's impossible to put on makeup or dress up, and her skin now shows signs of age.
Because she was injected with a strong sedative twice a day, Peng Yuanyuan appeared unusually dazed.
The door opened and someone came in, but she didn't react at all.
"Peng Yuanyuan, Officer Li has come to see you!"
