As soon as they returned to the police station, someone called Leng Tianyi away. The remaining officers came to the office, put down their bags, and began to organize the clues they had gathered at the scene.
Ye Zixi glanced at the group and sighed, "I'm going to do the autopsy."
“Sister Zixi, I’ll go with you.” Suiyi stood up and said.
"I took the found items to the laboratory for testing."
"Then I will investigate the family's interpersonal relationships."
"I'll print the photos."
The members of the special task force each performed their duties and began to do what they could.
Leng Tianyi knocked on the door and entered the director's office.
"Chief, you wanted to see me?"
The bureau chief looked at him sternly and tapped the table. "The higher-ups are taking this case very seriously and have issued orders to solve it within five days. I'm only giving you three days."
"Not the bureau chief..."
"Don't say anything more. Go back and organize the case for me when you have time."
Leng Tianyi had no choice but to go back.
"Where are the others?" he asked, noticing that only Li Hao and Chenchen remained in the office.
"Zixi and Xiaobai went to the autopsy room, and Jiangling went to test the physical evidence. I'm investigating the family's social connections."
"Okay! I'll go check on the autopsy results."
Autopsy Room
"Sister Zixi, let's first record the external physical characteristics of the four corpses."
"Alright! Let's look at the male homeowner's body, Zheng Xiong, 45 years old. Judging from the marks on his body, he was tied up and his genitals were cut with a sharp knife, after which he died of anger."
"Mi Lan, 38 years old, was found in the bathroom. She was likely killed by the murderer who cut her carotid artery from behind without warning, and bled to death."
"Zheng Wen, 20 years old, was killed by the murderer who repeatedly stabbed her in the abdomen with a sharp knife, especially causing severe damage to her genitals."
"Zheng Hao had no injuries on his body. We initially suspect that his cause of death was poisoning or some other reason."
"Then, Sister Zixi, can you determine the time of death?"
After pondering for a while, Zixi told Suiyi, "The first one to die should be the mistress, the second should be Zheng Wen, the third should be Zheng Hao, and the fourth should be Zheng Xiong."
"Click, you're all here?" Leng Tianyi opened the door and came in.
"Yes! We're analyzing the body."
"Any progress?"
"This is only a preliminary assessment. A detailed report will be provided after the autopsy."
Leng Tianyi nodded and looked at Sui Yi: "Xiao Bai, come out with me. I have something to ask you."
Sui Yi frowned, but still followed him out.
"What is it?" Suiyi asked, looking at him.
The man stared sharply at her: "Who are you? Do you possess some abilities we're unaware of?"
"It's inexplicable. I'm just an ordinary person. I get hungry and I get hurt. If there's anything different about me, it's probably that my imagination and intuition are very accurate."
"Okay, let's not talk about that. So, who do you think the murderer is this time?"
"A vendetta. Judging from the brutality of this family and the different degrees of injury, I think we can use Zheng Hao as a breakthrough point, because he has no injuries. We can also start with Zheng Xiong to see if he has any enemies, either business associates or people who are not good people and have made enemies by doing many bad things."
"Okay! Let's go back to the office and see if Chenchen has found any useful information." Suiyi followed him out.
"So, did you find anything?"
"Boss, I checked Zheng Xiong's company's finances and found nothing unusual. His social connections are also very simple. Generally, if it's because of Zheng Xiong that his whole family is harmed, it won't involve business matters. Mi Lan often attends elegant events. Zheng Wen is still a sophomore in college and has a boyfriend named Hu Xiaming. It's unlikely that they've become enemies."
“As for Zheng Hao,” he pointed, “there’s a problem here.”
"Li Hao, bring Hu Xiaming here for questioning," Leng Tianyi said to Li Hao, who was looking up information.
"Okay, boss." Then he got up to get to work.
Suiyi picked up the photo to look for clues, and Jiangling came over.
"Boss, I just took the physical evidence to the lab for testing and comparison. These were all left by these four bodies. We didn't find any others. The fingerprints also belong to this family, as well as the cleaning lady's."
"The witness said she used her key to open the door this morning, so could it have been done by a family member?"
"No, if it was done by one of the victims, the blood would only be found in the entire house, not in the yard. The murderer must be someone we know, and they must have a key to this family's house. Boss, send someone to find this family's key and analyze the fingerprints on it to see who has touched it. Find them and ask them."
"good!"
"Hey, Captain Leng, here's your takeout." Sui Yi stood up and ran over to take it.
"I felt hungry, so I checked the time and ordered takeout. Come on, let's replenish our energy. We haven't found any clues yet, so it's not worth going hungry." Sui Yi placed the takeout on the table in the break room and invited everyone to eat.
Just after finishing her meal, Chenchen's phone rang. Suiyi leaned over to look and saw that it was a video call from Shang Zhihang.
"Hey! Her boyfriend wants to video chat!"
Chenchen blushed and gave Suiyi a reproachful look, which made Suiyi click her tongue in amazement.
"Click to see if he has something to say to you."
Chenchen clicked on it and saw that the person's background was in a hospital, which made her a little worried.
Where are you?
