Is it normal to live on the phone to help your boyfriend investigate the case?

Chapter 191

For a moment, Qu Mingcong also thought: It should be an accident.

Because of such a heavy flower pot, even he, an adult man, would struggle to lift it, not to mention the sick Mrs. Ding.

But Xiao Qiao said to him in the headset: "It's all here, go upstairs and have a look."

Qu Mingcong looked at the nanny, "Take us to the room where the flower pots are placed."

Sister Qiu nodded again and again, actively took them upstairs to the study as if she was eager to find the backbone, and kept muttering: "How could this be so, how could such a thing happen... Madam said today is a special anniversary To celebrate, we went to the farmer's market to buy fish and shrimps. We didn't dare to delay the journey because we were afraid that they would not be fresh. After I came back, I started to prepare the dishes... The soup was almost ready, but there were no people left... My wife couldn't bear it ..."

As they spoke, the nanny's eyes turned red and her voice choked up. Qu Mingcong and Mei Chao could only be relatively speechless.

The room where the flowerpots were placed happened to be the room where they met Ding Zhaolin last time. There were bookshelves all over the wall, a solid wooden tea table and tea set, and several calligraphy and paintings.

But it was a little different from the room I saw last time. For example, there were a few more pet toys in the corner of the room, and a cat climbing frame nearly two meters high.

"I put the flowerpot here at the time." Sister Qiu pointed it out to them, regretting, "Why didn't I expect the flowerpot to be knocked down by a cat... If I was more careful, I might not Something will happen..."

Mei Chao comforted her: "It has already happened, don't take it too seriously, it was just an accident, what you can do now is to take good care of Mrs. Ding."

Sister Qiu wiped her tears and nodded, "Mr. has already left. If something happens to Mrs. again, I really don't know how to make amends."

Qu Mingcong took a few photos in the house, went to the window and looked down, and then checked the window.

"Did you open the window?" he asked the nurse.

Sister Qiu shook her head, "I guess so... I don't really remember..."

"When was the flowerpot put up?"

Because she had already been questioned at the police station, sister Qiu immediately replied: "I put it on before going out. My wife said that the cat grass in the flower pot was not growing well, so I moved it to bask in the sun, so I put it on the window sill , and then went out to buy groceries."

Qu Mingcong thought to himself, although there is no Mrs. Ding's fingerprint on the flower pot, it is almost as if she moved it. The place with the best light in this room must be by the window. Her explanation to the nanny is too suggestive.

"Did you pay attention to the flowerpot on the windowsill when you came back? Has the flowerpot been touched?" He asked again.

Sister Qiu shook her head, and said honestly: "As soon as I came back, I showed my wife the fish I bought. My wife said that the fish was well bought, and she wanted to make steamed and stewed soup. She also said that my husband likes winter bamboo shoots... I was thinking All I think about is what to cook, so I don’t pay attention to the flower pots, I probably haven’t moved them, there is only my wife in the house, it’s impossible for my wife to move the flower pots for no reason, and my wife doesn’t have that much energy.”

Mei Chao on the side couldn't help asking: "What about the cat? Do cats usually knock over flowerpots? Have you been trained? Could it be that they knocked over flowerpots because of some signal?"

Sister Qiu was taken aback by his words, her eyes widened and she said: "You can't talk nonsense! The cat at home was originally raised by Miss Ding Na, and the wife only started to take care of it after Miss passed away. She usually just feeds it. Tease it with a cat teaser, how can there be any training!"

Qu Mingcong smoothed things over: "What he meant was, would something have happened that caused the cat to have a stress response, otherwise why would it jump out of the window and hit the flowerpot for no reason?"

"Then I don't know. We were in the kitchen at the time..." Sister Qiu thought for a while, "Maybe, maybe a bird just flew over, and every time the cat sees a bird, it wants to jump."

Mei Chao gave Qu Mingcong a helpless look.

Qu Mingcong said to the nanny as if nothing had happened: "Okay, we have almost understood the situation, let's go to other places for a while, I can help you."

The nanny nodded, "Okay, let me pour you a cup of tea, it's been hard work for you all."

With that said, he turned around and went to prepare the tea set and hot water.

Qu Mingcong waited in the room for a while, but there was no new instruction in the earphones, so he went to look in other rooms, except that the innermost big study room was locked and could not be entered, other rooms were as usual, and nothing was found.

Returning to the scene of Ding Zhaolin's accident in the backyard on the first floor again, Mei Chao suddenly said, "I can feel at ease a little bit, it should be an accident, right Brother Ming?"

Qu Mingcong glanced at him.

Mei Chao looked up at the window and murmured, "Yes, that's right, it should have been an accident... The location and timing of the flower pot's fall are uncontrollable, so there is no possibility of intentional murder..."

Qu Mingcong could barely understand the mood of the other party. Mei Chao probably felt that as long as this matter was an accident, he would not have to bear any condemnation of conscience. He also knew how nonsense his investigation report was.

Xiao Qiao on the phone muttered: "Why is this time..."

Qu Mingcong also sighed in his heart, yes, why this time?If Ding Zhaolin hadn't died at this time, the reward investigation activities would have continued as usual, and then all the investigation reports would be handed over to Ding Zhaolin, who would select a few suitable ones to publish, and pay certain rewards or bonuses to the investigators who participated— — This is the normal order.

But Ding Zhaolin died.

The activity was suspended and the investigation report could not be released.

It felt as if someone had deliberately stalked Ding Zhaolin in order to cover up the investigation report.

However, there is no evidence to prove that Mrs. Ding has read the investigation report. Since she has not read it, how can she feel hatred?The theory of murder is even more out of the question.

Qu Mingcong couldn't help but reflect, did he jump to conclusions too much?Maybe this was really an accident, as Mei Chao said, the placement and timing of the flower pots cannot be manipulated, so why do you think Ding Zhaolin died of murder?

Maybe Xiao Qiao was also thinking about this problem, so he never heard her voice from the earphone.

Mei Chao asked, "Shall we go back?"

Qu Mingcong nodded and walked out.

At this moment, Xiao Qiao asked him, "Could it be that time?"

Qu Mingcong paused.

Xiao Qiao said thoughtfully: "At that time...you called her and asked her about the authenticity of the antiques. Could it be that from then on, she became murderous towards Ding Zhaolin?"

Just asking if the antique is real or fake, will you get murderous?
Qu Mingcong couldn't turn the corner for a while. Could it be that Ding Zhaolin's death has nothing to do with the investigation report, but with his phone call?
She went on to say: "Mrs. Ding knows her daughter very well. She knows that Ding Na is a person who likes to study antiques, and she will definitely cherish antiques very much. If Ding Na wants to take a real thing from the warehouse, she should use the four-sided stamped in the warehouse. Carts with anti-collision strips instead of carrying antiques up the stairs. Elevator monitoring did not capture Ding Na’s figure, indicating that Ding Na did not use a cart, so it can be inferred that Ding Na did not take any antiques from the warehouse that night. It is a genuine product, Ding Zhaolin regarded the real one as a fake, obviously there are ghosts in his heart, Mrs. Ding figured this out, maybe she directly decided that Ding Zhaolin was the murderer, and she was avenging Ding Na."

Qu Mingcong was startled, and subconsciously quickened his pace, "I'll go to the hospital to see her."

"Ah?" Mei Chao turned around, "...Who are you looking at?"

Qu Mingcong quickly stepped onto the motorcycle, "Look at Ye Shichun."
