Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 15 Detective Huang Donglai

Under Zhou Wu's leadership, Sun and Huang soon came to He Da's room.

He Da's body is still in the same state as it was when it was first discovered, lying on the ground on its back, with a dark and purple face, dying with regret.

It is not the first time for Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie to see dead people. They have also seen people who died worse than this, so they have no psychological barriers; He started to look east and west in the house...from the inconspicuous footprints on the floor, to the state of the door lock, from whether there was anything under the bed and furniture, and finally to the posture and lying position of the deceased, etc.

After looking around, the two exchanged glances, and immediately got a message from each other's eyes - Mao didn't even see it.

Yes, this is normal.

Do you think that a person without any professional criminal investigation training can find something by going to the crime scene and imitating the detective thinking in novels or movies?

If you think too much, you won't even notice the fart.

In fact, even with professional training, chances are you won't be able to spot anything.

The vast majority of homicides in the world are solved not because there are detectives at the scene who deduce the method of committing the crime through various clues and dead evidence, but because the murderer is too stupid, the murderer left very obvious traces, and the murderer covered up the crime The method is too crude, the murderer's motive is too obvious and other reasons.

The well-planned, ingenious, perfect execution, and extremely high-quality murderer cases in the novel probably account for less than 1% of the cases in reality.

Besides, Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie were not detectives at first, so they couldn't detect cases; there was no Dong in the name of the kind of hunk who could detect cases, only Nan.

So in the end, in fact, Huang Donglai can only do what Zhou Wu asked him to do-see what poison He Da has been poisoned.

"The one among them... is called 'Three Steps of Broken Soul', which is a relatively rare poison in Jianghu." Huang Donglai inspected He Da's body for a while, and then came to the conclusion, "This kind of poison will make people feel sick. In fact, there are not many... There are people from all over the country who know it, and it is not a secret recipe; the reason why it is rare is that the preparation process is relatively complicated, the materials are relatively expensive, and the preparation will fail if there is a slight mistake; as for its characteristics...except In addition to being colorless and odorless, it does not cause poisoning immediately after people eat it. Generally, it will only occur when people get up and walk, or when the blood is flowing due to some kind of exercise, so it is called "three-step broken soul". "

"Hey~ It's okay, Brother Huang, what you said is right." Sun Yixie heard the words, and immediately praised his brother from the sidelines.

"That's..." Huang Donglai raised his chin and said proudly, "I didn't learn it in vain after so many years."

In terms of toxicology, Huang Donglai has indeed made a lot of achievements. After all, this is the housekeeping skill of their Huangmen; basically, as long as it is a poison that has appeared in the world and has a certain degree of recognition, he can quickly distinguish it. .

"Hiss—that's weird." On the other side, after hearing this, Zhou Wu frowned and meditated, "Why would someone give him the poison of 'Three Steps to Break the Soul' for such a small person like He Da?" ?”

"Of course it means that something is wrong with him. Someone wants to silence him." Sun Yixie was very sensitive about this, and almost broke the truth without thinking.

"Oh?" Zhou Wudao, "Could it be that the 'thing' Sun Xiandi said was..."

"That's naturally what happened in Zeng's residence." Sun Yixie replied.

Zhou Wu also understood what Sun Yixie meant, and he continued, "You mean...there is something else hidden behind the 'haunted' Zeng Mansion?"

"Where is there any ghost in this world?" Sun Yixie took it for granted, "Whether it's the so-called haunted ghost or that glass fish, there must be someone behind the scenes to cover up their real intentions."

"Eh?" At this moment, Huang Donglai's expression changed slightly, as if he had thought of something, he continued, "Brother Sun, you said that... I seem to understand."

Both of them were born under the red flag in the original universe and grew up in the spring breeze. They are naturally firm materialists, so they can quickly follow each other's thinking.

"What do you know?" Sun Yixie asked.

"Isn't this the kind of...the routine of killing people in succession to cover up one killing?" Huang Donglai said.

When Sun Yixie heard the words, he immediately thought about it, while Zhou Wu looked at him suspiciously, as if signaling him to continue talking.

Huang Donglai also reorganized his thoughts, and then said: "For example... the murderer behind this case, in fact, the only person who really wants to kill is the second wife of the Zeng Mansion, but he is afraid that only this one will be killed. He was found out, so he designed these glass fish, haunted things and other things in advance, killed two unrelated people, and when everyone thought it was haunted, he killed the second wife In this way, everyone will think that the death of the second lady was also caused by haunting, and they will not think about the murder... As for what is the big deal, it may be because they knew too much, so they were silenced."

"Oh~" Sun Yixie listened, and patted Huang Donglai on the shoulder, "Brother Huang has strength, did you reason it out?"

"Hey~ It's a little meaning." Huang Donglai said, "I can see through this routine after a little thought."

Perhaps for the two of them who have read many modern detective works, it is not difficult to think of and understand this kind of method, but for Zhou Wu, this is an uncommon theory, and...it does make sense.

"Ahhh! The words of Brother Huang made Zhou suddenly enlightened!" Zhou Wu suddenly realized, and praised Gao, "The two brothers are talented and thoughtful, and Zhou admires them. If you rely on Brother Yu alone... I'm afraid I can't think of it..."

"Hey, Brother Zhou, you're being polite. My brothers are just a little smart." Huang Donglai's mouth was very modest, but he and Sun Yixie's faces were already blooming with pride, "In my opinion, Right now, we should start with He Da's case first, question the shop assistants and shopkeepers first, and check their kitchens to see how the 'three-step broken soul' was brought down to He Da In the diet, let’s make calculations.”

"Oh! That's right." Zhou Wujing reminded him, and immediately called his subordinates to start a further investigation.

Unfortunately, things didn't go so smoothly...

The guys and shopkeepers in this inn obviously knew nothing about the poison, and they found no problems in the kitchen and the place where the tea was boiled. In the end, it was Huang Donglai who found the poison from the teapot in He Da’s room with the silver needle on his body. where.

According to Huang Donglai's speculation, the murderer either sneaked into He Da's room and poisoned him while He Da was away, or knocked on the door normally, and quietly poured the poison into the teapot while communicating with He Da.

In those days, there was no monitoring or anything. There were so many people coming and going in the inn every day, and it was impossible for Xiao Er to remember everyone, and the guests would not pay attention to those, so I wanted to advance the case through on-site cross-examination. , I am afraid it will be difficult.

The line of He Da is temporarily broken.

If he wanted to find out the truth of the whole matter, he still had to go back...from the Zeng Mansion.

Under Zhou Wu's repeated requests, Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie finally couldn't save face, agreed to postpone the trip, and spent a few days to help him investigate the case again; but they also made it clear that if nothing was found after a few days As a result, it was inconvenient for them to stay anymore, after all, the Boy Heroes Club was also very important.

However, another problem came before their eyes—they had to have an explanation in order to enter the Zeng Mansion to investigate the case.

With the influence of the Zeng family, even Zhou Wu, the head catcher, would not be able to enter the house casually, let alone Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai, two meddlers.

Fortunately, Sun Yixie has a lot of crooked ideas, and he quickly thought of a way...

Don't your Zeng family feel that it's not peaceful to be haunted there?Then we will pretend to be Taoist priests, and let Zhou Wu be in charge of introducing them on the pretext of exorcising ghosts with the above method, and sneak into Zeng's mansion to investigate the case.

He helped Brother Huang figure out the name, so he called it—Old Immortal Xudong.
