No trace of espionage

Chapter 986 Strange Case
Li Yuewang hurried to the bottom cabin and saw the bodies of Liu Deshan and three Japanese lying on the salt bag.

Sailing on the Yangtze River without ballast salt is not possible, and it is easy to capsize.

After the original salt was robbed, he bought another ten tons of salt in Yangzhou and pressed it in the bilge.

"Quickly, report to the boss..." Li Yuewang limp on the ground after ordering his subordinates.

Even a well-informed veteran like him is afraid.Because he understands, not to mention others, that these three Japanese died on his boat is a sin in itself.It's okay for the Japanese to find the murderer. If they can't find it, will they take him for surgery?

The answer is almost yes.

……

Upon receiving the news, Yunzi Zhongye was furious when he heard that Hua Yichang, Liu Deshan and the three agents were all dead.

She first called Li Shiqun to take someone to the public pier, and then called Lin Chuang's office at the police station.

Nobody answers the phone.

Called Lanyuan again, this time Lin Chuang picked it up.

"I'm Yunzi Nakano, I'm going to the public pier right away." Yunzi Nakano said hurriedly.

"Why, didn't you let me take a rest when you came back? I said, did you miss me? Did you miss me right after we separated?" Lin Chuang said.

"Oh, stop talking, something serious happened." Yunzi Nakano said urgently.

"Ah? Well, I'll go right away." Lin Chuang didn't dare to joke anymore, put down the phone, asked Zhang Jin to prepare the car, and rushed to the public pier.

The public docks have been cordoned off and surrounded by Japanese gendarmes.

Lin Chuang's face was his pass. Seeing him coming, the military police took the initiative to make way for him to enter.

When Lin Chuang came to the berth of the Jianglong, he saw that Yunzi Zhongye, Fairy Shigong, Li Shiqun, and Wu Sibao had all arrived.

Li Yuewang was tied up and kneeling aside, and another bald middle-aged man was talking anxiously to Yunzi Nakano.

Seeing Lin Chuang approaching, Nakano Yunzi waved his hand to stop the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man stepped back with a gloomy expression.

Lin Chuang first nodded to Fairy Shigong and Li Shiqun, as a simple greeting, and walked to Yunzi Nakano.

Nakano Yunzi said in a low voice, "An accident happened to the Jianglong, and all of us who stayed on board died."

"Ah? What's going on?" Lin Chuang asked in surprise.

"The reason is still unclear. Wanlilang is leading people to investigate the scene." Nakano Yunzi said.

"Oh." Seeing Yunzi Nakano's face turned livid, Lin Chuang kept silent and just looked at the Jianglong in deep thought.

"Director Lin, why don't you go and see the scene?" Li Shiqun asked.

"Captain Wan is enough." Lin Chuang replied.

"Your Excellency, Section Chief, Chief Lin has rich experience in solving crimes. Do you want him to preside over this case?" Li Shiqun asked Zhongye Yunzi.

"This case involves a lot of seriousness, and the Secret Service is duty-bound." Yunzi Nakano replied coldly.

Li Shiqun blinked his eyes, and said still unwillingly: "Your Excellency, Section Chief, Director Lin should be involved because of the seriousness involved. How about letting Director Lin guide the secret service department to solve the case?"

"No, no, deputy director Li, how can I be qualified to guide the Secret Service? You are an expert, so I won't play tricks." Lin Chuang waved his hand humbly and declined.

"Deputy Director Li, don't try to use him as a backstop. You'd better put away those little thoughts. I'll give you three days. If the case is not solved, the Secret Service will suspend it!" Yunzi Nakano said heavily.

As soon as these words came out, Li Shiqun's face turned black immediately, and he didn't dare to say any more.

He knew that he was holding this hot yam in his arms.

What Yunzi Nakano said seemed unintentional, but everyone understood it.

They don't even call their official titles anymore, it's directly "his own". No matter how it sounds like a wife defending her husband, it shows the deep relationship between the two.

If Lin Chuang is not brought in, this case will not end well.

Seeing Ye Yunzi's angry look, Li Shiqun was really afraid that she would ban the Secret Service.

Not to mention banning it, even if she gave an "incompetent" comment, he would not be able to compete for the position of Minister of Police in the new government.

"Yes." Li Shiqun replied, glanced at Wu Sibao beside him, and had another idea.

At this moment, Wanlilang came back.

"Your Excellency, the section chief, gentlemen, the results of the preliminary investigation have come out."

"Speak." Nakano Yunzi said.

"Hua Yichang and Ye Ziqiong died of poisoning, as to what kind of poison they were poisoned, we have to wait for the results of the autopsy.

According to the first boatman who found the two of them dead, when he went to the cabin where the two lived, he found that the door was locked from the inside. After agreeing, he felt that something was wrong, and then opened the hatch.

In addition, Beizhi checked the footprints in the cabin, except for the footprints of the boatman and Li Yuewang, there were no other footprints.

In other words, the possibility of entering and killing people was ruled out. "

"Wait a minute, are the footprints on the deck so easy to find?" Nakano Yunzi asked.

"I found a thin layer of soot at the door. My humble guess is that Hua Yichang was a military commander after all, so he must have made the arrangements before going to bed. Therefore, I only saw the footprints of Li Yuewang and the boatman, but not him. and Ye Ziqiong's."

This explanation is reasonable, Nakano Yunzi nodded: "Continue."

Wan Lilang nodded, and then said: "Hua Yichang lived on the first floor. Except for a bed, there was no window in the cabin, and there was no gap in the bulkhead. That is to say, there are only two possibilities for the murderer to poison. It is through food and water, and the other is the kind of misty smoke on the rivers and lakes, which is blown in through the hatch."

Yunzi Nakano nodded again: "This judgment is established."

Wan Lilang said with a bitter face: "It's a pity that the footprints outside the cabin door are so messy that they can no longer be discerned. I asked the boatman and said that those footprints belonged to them. Li Yuewang didn't let people enter the cabin, but he didn't prohibit them from walking outside the cabin either." .”

"Are there any other traces?" Nakano Yunzi asked.

"No other traces were found. Except for the footprints outside the cabin, there is no trace or anything suspicious." Wan Lilang replied.

"continue."

"Liu Deshan and the other three died in the bilge. The cause of death was strange. They were not shot, and there were no marks of blunt objects on their bodies. They didn't seem to be poisoned, but they seemed to have died of sleep."

"Oh?" Yunzi Nakano frowned, "Why is it such a difficult case again?"

"The humble staff checked their original residence, and found nothing suspicious, and there was no trace of being hijacked. The boatmen didn't hear the slightest movement.

Also, how did they get to the hold?Why bottom deck?The exact time of death is still pending autopsy and further examination. "Wan Lilang said.

"It's really strange. Could it be that Liu Deshan and the others went to the bottom cabin by themselves? If someone hijacks them, it is impossible not to leave traces, and it is impossible not to make a sound." Nakano Yunzi said, and glanced at Lin Chuang.

She wanted to seek Lin Chuang's opinion.

Lin Chuang smiled slightly and said, "But, the person died."
