Chapter 46 Reversal of Verdict: Poisoning
"We were also surprised." Xiao Zhang whispered, "The female victim was named Wang Xiaoya, and she was Lu Tian's best friend. What a coincidence, it was these two people who died!" "
The murderer definitely couldn't be Lu Tian and Prosecutor Nie. Mu Mian and I kept a close eye on them yesterday. Nie Yan even attempted suicide in the middle of the night. Fortunately, forensic doctor Mu discovered it in time, otherwise Nie Yan would have died." Chen Xue immediately cleared Lu Tian and Nie Yan of suspicion.
"We didn't suspect them!" Xiao Zhang said, "There were only two people on the yacht at the time, and two of them died. One of the two who survived must be the murderer."
Mu Mian looked at the two bodies. There were white foam around the mouths of the two dead, and their skin was cyanotic.
"They were poisoned, probably some kind of neurotoxin," Mu Mian carefully examined the surface of the body, "There are no external injuries. No obvious pinholes were found, and it was initially ruled out that it was an injection of drugs. A toxicology test is needed to know what kind of poison it is."
Fang Rui looked at one of the people who reported the case, "You didn't use any illegal drugs last night, did you?"
The person who reported the case was called Chen Dongdong, Lin Qianjie's assistant and lackey, and he often followed Lin Qianjie to do evil things.
"No... Of course not." Chen Dongdong's expression was evasive. "Anyway, I definitely don't have it. If you don't believe me, you can take me to a urine test."
"It's better not!"
Mu Mian sampled all the food in the yacht. There were several opened bottles of wine and several glasses with wine on the table. She packed them as they were and planned to take them back for poison testing.
"What is this?" Xiao Zhang pried open the bedside cabinet in the bedroom of the yacht and found a bottle of medicine in the drawer. The bottle was white and the label was in English. Xiao Zhang couldn't understand it at all.
Mu Mian had never seen this drug name, but she could understand the ingredient list. "From the ingredients, it may be some kind of aphrodisiac. Take it back for testing!"
Mu Mian twisted the bottle and poured some out of it. It was filled with some small white pills. There was only a small half bottle left in the bottle. It seemed that the user had been taking this drug for some time.
After Mu Mian finished taking samples, Fang Rui and his team also completed the on-site investigation. No useful clues were found on the yacht. They planned to go back first.
"Is this Qianjie's body?" A cold female voice came from outside the yacht.
Fang Rui walked out and saw that the person who spoke was Lin Qianjie's stepmother Jiang Yun.
She was wearing a black suit and looked delicate and capable. She looked at Lin Qianjie's body, her brows slightly wrinkled, but she did not reveal the slightest sadness, and her expression was indifferent.
Jiang Yun knew Fang Rui, and she said to Fang Rui: "Fang Rui, are you in charge of this case?"
"Yes."
"You don't have to investigate this case. I want to take this body away. I will find someone to find the murderer myself!" Jiang Yun's tone was a bit aggressive.
Because the police obviously favored Lu Tian in the previous rape case, she didn't believe Fang Rui and his team would care about this case.
Fang Rui refused and said, "I'm sorry, we have already taken over this case. According to the procedure, you can't take the body away."
"I am the family of the deceased. I have the right to deal with his body."
"After the case is over, we will return the body of the deceased to you." Mu Mian suddenly said, "But not now. Please believe us, we will get to the bottom of the case as soon as possible."
Although Mu Mian was wearing a mask, Jiang Yun still recognized Mu Mian as the girl he met in the audience that day.
Jiang Yun looked at Mu Mian with an arrogant tone, "You are a forensic doctor? You look very unprofessional! Why should I believe that you can find the real murderer?"
"Are you afraid that we can't find the real murderer, or are you afraid that we will find out that your son has used some illegal substances and ruin your family's reputation?" Fang Rui protected Mu Mian behind him and interrupted her, "We have investigated this case!"
At this time, Chen Xue held up a toothpick and said to Mu Mian: "Mu Mian, do you want to take this back for a toxicology test?"
"Yes! Chen Xue, you are paying more and more attention to details."
Mu Mian... Jiang Yun's body stiffened when she heard this name. She looked at Mu Mian carefully. She should have recognized him, this is her child!
She walked towards Mu Mian and asked in a trembling voice: "Are you... Mu Mian?"
Mu Mian did not answer her, but said to Fang Rui: "Fang Rui, I have finished taking samples, let's go back!" "
Okay!"
"Mu Mian, I am..." Jiang Yun held Mu Mian's hand, but she couldn't say it halfway.
She said such vicious words that day, and she had never seen Mu Mian. What qualifications did she have to recognize her daughter?
"Ms. Jiang, please don't disturb our work," Mu Mian gently took her hand away, "We are very busy."
Jiang Yun was stunned.
She finally heard her daughter talking, but she called her Ms. Jiang.
After Mu Mian and the others drove away, the assistant asked cautiously: "Ms. Jiang, are we going back?"
She has been with Jiang Yun for many years, but she has never seen Jiang Yun show such a guilty and desperate expression. Jiang Yun has always been a cold-blooded woman.
"Well, let's go back!" Jiang Yun gathered all her emotions, and she reminded her assistant, "If the police find out that Qianjie has used illegal drugs, remember to block the news immediately."
"I understand. I'll have someone follow him."
In the autopsy room, Chen Xue looked at Mu Mian frequently. She suspected that Jiang Yun was the mother that Mu Mian wanted to find, but she didn't know how to tell Mu Mian.
"Chen Xue, Ms. Jiang is my biological mother."
Mu Mian cut open Lin Qianjie's stomach, and a strong smell of alcohol came out. His stomach was very empty, with almost no chyme.
It seemed that the poison was probably in the wine.
"Then why don't you recognize her?" Chen Xue was a little puzzled, "Don't you always want to see your mother?"
"Yes. So once you see her, you won't miss her anymore."
Mu Mian extracted the blood of the deceased for toxicology testing.
"But she is very rich. If you recognize her, you will become rich overnight." Chen Xue sighed, "Then you don't have to go to work anymore and can spend money as you like."
"I like to go to work, I don't like to spend money," Mu Mian paused, she looked at Chen Xue, "Besides, I'm very rich now."
"...Are you referring to your savings of several hundred yuan that were cheated away? Or our meager salary"
"Of course not! My sister has a lot of money, I can use as much as I want."
Chen Xue had met Mu Mian's sister. She was very beautiful and elegant. Judging from her clothes and the car she drove, she was indeed very rich.
"That Ms. Jiang doesn't look like a good person. You'd better stay away from her. Look at what she has done to Lin Qianjie? A scumbag! Fortunately, you were not raised by her, otherwise you might have become a bloodthirsty forensic doctor!"
"I don't like blood, I like bones. I might become a thief and steal mummies from museums or corpses from ancient tombs."
"..." Chen Xue was speechless. Even if Mu Mian turned evil, he was not destructive.
