Chapter 988 Once Promised the Best Time 25.37



Just like with the case of Mr. Smith, they were only slightly surprised when they heard it: "Oh, you mean Mr. Smith? He actually died. I'm really curious about what it was like back then."

Or perhaps they've forgotten about this person: "I'm really curious who will replace Mr. Smith?"

Now, Lu Qingyan was surrounded by these people. She didn't answer their questions, but only said, "The police are already investigating, and the results will be out soon."

After the man made a commotion, everyone dispersed, and peace returned to Lu Qingyan's surroundings.

However, this group of people were not so easy to deal with. Lu Qingyan was asked the same question several more times, and she replied with the same sentence.

In the afternoon, Rong Qing called to say that the family had moved and he was coming to pick up Lu Qingyan.

When they got into the car, Rong Qing and Lu Qingyan talked about the follow-up to the case.

"The autopsy results are in. James said the body was cut very skillfully, making it difficult to determine the exact time of death, but it was confirmed before Lu Qingyan went in. Although Louise's fingerprints were collected at the crime scene, there were no Louise fingerprints on Smith's body. The fingerprints on the body were likely from someone wearing gloves, and plastic fibers were found on them, which were completely different in size from Louise's. Louise is now considered cleared of suspicion."

"The murderer hasn't been caught yet?" Lu Qingyan asked, raising an eyebrow.

Rong Qing said, "Not yet, but we've already identified a suspect. James said the murderer is probably a doctor or butcher, someone with autopsy experience. Also, according to our investigation, Smith has several doctor friends, three of whom are surgeons and got full marks in anatomy class."

Talking about this topic still made Lu Qingyan feel somewhat nauseous; just thinking about meat would give her a bad reaction. Lu Qingyan thought dejectedly that she would probably have to eat vegetarian food from now on.

Lu Qingyan didn't ask any further questions about the case, but only inquired, "Is there any food left at home?"

Rong Qing nodded: "There's still a little left, but not much." He then asked, "Shall we go buy some now?"

"Yes, I need to go buy some." Lu Qingyan thought to herself: Mr. Rong, do you know that with you around, I feel like I'm raising three more hungry babies?

Thinking about Rong Qing's appetite yesterday, Lu Qingyan felt a chill run down her spine.

She doesn't look fat at all, so how can she eat so much?

Probably nobody knows the answer anymore.

A week has passed in the blink of an eye, and Smith's case is still unresolved. On X University's website, many people are complaining about the police department's incompetence, as they still haven't caught the murderer.

Lu Qingyan asked Rong Qing what the current situation was, and Rong Qing didn't hide anything: "Those doctors have all checked, and they can completely clear him of suspicion. But if it wasn't those doctors, whose knife skills could cut the corpse so well?"

Lu Qingyan, who was chopping vegetables, looked at the knife in her hand and thought of Smith's fat body. Suddenly, an idea struck her.

"Mr. Rong, besides the doctor, the chef's knife skills are also exceptional!"

Rong Qing was taken aback, but after realizing what he meant, he immediately called James: "Check the restaurants Smith frequents and whether he has any chef friends."

James also figured out the key to this and immediately shared his new approach to solving the case with Jesse and the others. After this investigation, they finally locked onto the target: a thin, kind-looking chef who had known Smith for nearly ten years.
