"What did he say?" In the conference room of Genting Eagle, Gu Ruoqian looked at Cen Yunong in disbelief and asked in a low voice.
Cen Yu sighed deeply and reluctantly closed the Apple computer in his hand. He glanced at Gu Ruoqian with clear eyes: "Can you get rid of that dull expression on your face?"
"Sorry." Gu Ruoqian realized that the expression on his face was too exaggerated, coughed slightly, adjusted the expression on his face to be calmer, and then continued to ask: "Old Xu, is his brain broken?
How can you say that?"
Cen Yunong shrugged: "How did I know? I still want to ask you, why did you assign me such a job? Is it because I am free, so you assigned me such a bad case? There is no need to fight.
, he directly confessed."
Gu Ruoqian was lost in thought again, as if he didn't hear her words, he just tapped the table with his knuckles, frowned, and after a long time he said: "Let's go to the crime scene."
"What for? Do you think we are detectives?" Cen Yunong looked at Gu Ruoqian in surprise, not sure what this man was thinking.
Gu Ruoqian smiled warmly and shrugged: "Why not? Let's go, Watson!" (Watson is a good partner vs friend of Detective Sherlock Holmes) "Stupid fart." Cen Yunong gave him a roll of the eyes,
But it didn't matter after thinking about it, so I just followed him out.
The crime scene was on the top floor of Genting Eagle.
Speaking of which, this suicide case not only increased the reputation of Genting Eagle, but also delayed the work of Genting Eagle for several days.
Because the whole building had to be sealed off, the lawyers who had been busy all year finally got a chance to rest. They all happily traveled to various places.
Some people even posted posts on the company's internal forums such as "Hey, it turns out that jumping off a building can give us a holiday, so next time I will sacrifice to help all my brothers and sisters!"
Gu Ruoqian's face of squeezing workers' hard-earned money was undoubtedly exposed.
Cen Yunong speechlessly closed the post displayed on the iPad screen in his hand, and decided to follow this cold-blooded capitalist to the crime scene to investigate.
The elevator reached the top floor. When Cen Yunong stepped onto the roof, he was almost blown back by the oncoming strong wind.
"It's such a strong wind!" she exclaimed, reaching out to block the howling draft.
"Be careful." A pair of big hands caught her in time, pulled her up to the roof, and hugged her waist to prevent her from losing her balance.
Cen Yunong hurriedly shook off the hand of the good Samaritan, Gu Ruoqian, and walked directly towards the place where the accident happened on the roof.
The possible locations where Chen Meixiang jumped off the building were marked out with chalk, and a big red circle marked them clearly there.
It seems as if all the proofs of her life are contained in this red circle.
Human beings are so insignificant. When they fall from a tall building, it takes just an instant for their bodies to turn into powder and never exist in this world again.
Only a red chalk circle is left, mocking the world coldly.
Cen Yunong couldn't help but stand still in front of the red chalk circle. The strong wind howled by and almost knocked her staggering.
"Damn it, the wind is really strong here." Gu Ruoqian stamped his feet and said softly.
Cen Yunong nodded slightly and frowned: "Is the wind always so strong on the roof here? Or is it just very windy today?"
Gu Ruoqian shrugged: "I don't know either."
Seeing Cen Yunong glaring at him, he reluctantly picked up the phone and called the company's security guard over.
After understanding the situation, they finally got the exact answer.
There are strong winds on the roof of Genting Eagle all year round, probably due to drafts. It seems that the tops of all buildings are subject to strong winds.
The security chief went downstairs in confusion, leaving Cen Yunong and Gu Ruoqian still on the roof.
"Why do you want to ask if the wind is always strong?" Gu Ruoqian asked Cen Yunong who was squatting there.
Cen Yunong shook his head: "I don't know why. It's just that I just remembered what Lao Xu said. He said that Chen Meixiang had difficulty surviving for a while. In other words, he was acquiescing to the fact that she lived by selling her body. I
What I don’t understand is, since they live together, why would Lao Xu acquiesce in such a thing? Logically speaking, if two people are together, it is impossible for a man to let his woman continue to do such things.
.But according to the evidence obtained by the police, Chen Meixiang continued to do this job even after she was with Lao Xu. There must be a problem. But I don’t know what the specific problem is.
"
"Listening to what you said, it is indeed a problem." Gu Ruoqian also fell into deep thought.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the fierce wind seemed to want to blow Cen Yunong downstairs. She squatted there, staring at the red chalk circle, thinking about the problem just now.
The wind became stronger and stronger, and gradually a small stone rolled to Cen Yunong's feet.
With a "Gulu" sound, he lightly hit Cen Yunong's high heels.
She looked down, reached out, picked up the pebble, and threw it aside.
Who knew that after a while, another pebble was blown to her feet by the wind. She stretched out her foot and kicked it again, and asked Gu Ruoqian without looking back: "Hey, where did so many pebbles come from here?"
Of course Gu Ruoqian didn't know, so he could only shrug: "Maybe it's the materials left by previous workers. I don't know."
Cen Yunong frowned: "Is that so?"
But when I looked down, I found that the pebbles were scattered randomly around the edge of the building, and there were no traces of pebbles in other places.
Could it be that the remaining materials in the past would only be left on the edge of the building, so why should the stones be placed here? Generally, materials that are not used up are placed in the center of the roof. If they are placed here like this now, they will be hit if they fall.
People are also a problem.
So, why are these stones placed here?
"I think it would be better if you call the security manager up again and question him in detail." Cen Yunong insisted.
Gu Ruoqian shrugged: "Since you insist."
So the unlucky security supervisor was called up again just after he came down, but what can be done? Who told him to be just a small part-time worker?
But even he didn't know when pebbles had been placed here.
So he called his men over again to check one by one when the roof had been repaired and whether any materials were left.
The answer was no.
Genting Eagle is a new building and has never had any roof repairs in the few years since it was built.
Now, even Gu Ruoqian noticed something was wrong.
"Yeah, where did these pebbles come from?"
Cen Yunong stood up, his soft eyes flashing brightly: "Perhaps, this is the answer to all the riddles."
When he returned to the police station, it was obvious that Cen Yunong was not there as a defense lawyer, but as a clue provider.
A few pebbles were properly kept in a transparent plastic bag, and now the plastic bag was placed on the table in front of the police chief Gao Feng.
"So." Gao Feng looked at Cen Yunong calmly, unable to guess what trick she was playing, "Are you here to give me stones as a gift in return for that meal?"
"It can be considered." Cen Yunong did not deny it. He nodded generously and admitted it, completely ignoring the wonderful expressions on the faces of the police officers standing around him.
Gao Feng nodded: "That's fine. This is the first time a woman has given me pebbles as a gift."
"It's a great gift." Cen Yunong raised his eyes to look at him, but there was no trace of joking in his big eyes, but they were full of calmness and seriousness.
"Oh, a great gift? Is there a rare and beautiful jade hidden in it?"
"I don't dare to take it seriously. However, these pebbles may help you figure out the cause of Chen Meixiang's death." Cen Yunong said calmly.
Several senior police officers on the side smiled contemptuously: "Chen Meixiang? Didn't that old Xu plead guilty? Why bother-"
"Listen to her." Gao Feng waved his hand gently to stop the discussion among his men, and looked deeply into Cen Yunong's eyes, "Continue."
Cen Yunong glanced at the "idiot" police officers and continued his analysis: "Just now I went to the roof of the Genting Eagle to take a closer look and found these small stones placed on the edge of the building. I initially thought they were the construction team
The ones left there were later asked by the building’s security supervisor and found that no repairs had been carried out on the roof. So, this is a question. Where did these pebbles come from? And who placed them there?
What's up there, and what a coincidence, it's exactly at the position where Chen Meixiang committed suicide by jumping off the building. Why is that?"
Gao Feng couldn't help but nodded and agreed: "Well, let's continue the analysis."
Cen Yunong continued: "Moreover, although Lao Xu admitted that he killed the person, we all know that Gu Ruoqian and I can testify that he was not present on the day Chen Meixiang committed suicide. He had no time to kill anyone."
Gao Feng nodded, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "This is what I have always suspected. But Lao Xu said that he had a quarrel with Chen Meixiang, so she was unhappy and couldn't think of jumping off the building. This can be regarded as him indirectly killing her.
of."
"I want to see Chen Meixiang's autopsy report." Cen Yunong suddenly raised his head and made such a request.
Gao Feng was stunned, unable to follow Cen Yunong's thinking at all, but Cen Yunong was very determined to see Chen Meixiang's autopsy report, so he had to call it up for her to see.
The forensic doctor explained Cen Yunong in detail with the report, ruling out the possibility that she was knocked unconscious and thrown downstairs, because there were no blow wounds on Chen Meixiang's head and neck. It also ruled out that she was beaten
It is possible that someone was drugged and knocked unconscious and then thrown down the stairs, because no drug ingredients were found in Chen Meixiang's body.
"Is it possible that someone did it while drunk?" Cen Yunong frowned and asked this question.
