What's in the depths II

Chapter 75 Final Chapter [1 more]

"At that time, the status of women was not as high as it is today. To be honest, the feudal system of more than 3000 years, I don't think it can be easily changed only by the struggle of a few women. Because my mother is a woman, my grandfather's company at that time My dad took over alone. In all fairness, he is indeed a very capable person. Because of his management, the company flourished and soon became the leading industry in Huiyuan City. After my mother got married, she became a full-time employee. Mrs."

"But at that time, my mother went to the hospital for a follow-up visit, but the hospital said that there was something wrong with the medical certificate that year, and it was very likely that it was a misdiagnosis."

Yunqian was astonished and seemed a little unbelievable.

Because in An Yan's mother's personal file, it was indeed written that she died of liver cancer.

"It was at that time that my grandfather went to prison because of financial problems, and he didn't have the heart to ask about my mother's illness. It must have been more than enough, after all, he was already in trouble."

"After my dad took over the company, the first thing he did was to send my mother to a nursing home. Although my mother said that she was not sick and was misdiagnosed by the hospital, he didn't believe what my mother said."

"The nursing home notified my dad over and over again to pick her up, saying that my mother had no health problems. Maybe it was out of face or pressure. My dad took my mother back home, but his attitude changed drastically, as if The love and harmony between husband and wife back then was just a 'sacrifice' he had to make in order to stabilize my grandfather and for this company."

"My mother lost weight day by day. In the end, she was only skin and bones. She really looked like a terminally ill patient."

"Until one day, I came home from school and went to chat with my mother as usual. When I opened the door, I saw her lying on the bed covered in blood, breathing weakly. I was very scared and wanted to call 120 for help, but My dad came in and told me that my mother chose to end her life because she couldn't stand the pain and asked me to leave it alone."

"I was only seven years old at that time. Actually, really, it was beyond my control."

"But I think my mother is not dead because she is still breathing, but my father insisted on inviting someone to come and say that my mother was to be cremated."

An Yan said, his fingers trembling unceasingly.

"Maybe it's an obsession, or maybe it's a persistent pursuit of the truth. I applied for a forensic science major, so I know that the knife that was inserted into my mother's abdomen at that time was not inserted by herself at all, because the knife was in the left abdomen. But my mother is left-handed, so the behavior under stress will be in a normal state, but if the knife is on the left, it does not conform to the normal state of mechanics.”

"There is also the faint smell of bitter almonds that fills the room. It is only now that I understand that it is the special smell of cyanide ion chemicals."

Yun Qian looked into An Yan's eyes and asked softly: "So you suspect that your mother was..."

An Yan nodded: "But do you know what major my mother studied before she got married?"

Yunqian shook his head with his mouth open.

"It's chemistry."

It's like a small pebble is thrown into a calm lake, and the shock expands circles like ripples on the lake——

----------

"Officer, the composition of the substance has been detected. The condensed crystal found on the body of the deceased is a poisonous substance called hydrocyanic acid, which is the product of hydrolysis of sodium cyanide."

Yu Yuan took the test report from the Thai police officer, stroked his mustache and said thoughtfully, "In other words, did the deceased inhale an excessive amount of hydrocyanic acid before he died?"

"Yes, this is the autopsy report done by your forensic doctor. According to the conclusions drawn from the fullness of the deceased's bladder and the solubility of the food in his stomach, the specific time of death of the deceased was at one o'clock in the morning on the night they entered the green house."

Yu Yuan nodded: "What did the forest guard you interrogated say?"

"He said that because this place is considered a tourist attraction, there are indeed a lot of idlers. His work does not include the scope of the green house. To put it bluntly, he is a forest guard. If there is a fire, what should be dealt with as soon as possible, probably so."

Yu Yuan looked at the report, heaved a long sigh, then turned his head and said to the police officer who was investigating this time: "Let's go to the forest again, and then go to the green house to have a look, as far as the current situation is concerned, the green house is the most important one." The first crime scene."

An Yan was standing by the window looking at the dark clouds pressing down on the city outside, as if the next moment the heavy rain would pour down.

"Do you want to go with us?" Seeing An Yan's sad face, Yun Qian asked cautiously.

"Go." An Yan forced a wry smile.

Taking advantage of people not paying attention, Yunqian quietly took his hand, it was still the same as usual, even in the sweltering heat of Thailand, his hand was still warm.

I have checked on the Internet before, cold hands are due to physical weakness, regular bubble bath will be better, but it is only a temporary solution, not the root cause, and said that it is best to change the diet structure, Yunqian also did it, but no matter what he eats No matter what kind of medicated bath he took, An Yan's physical weakness did not improve at all.

He is more afraid of the cold than ordinary people. When everyone wants to take off their clothes to sleep in the hot summer, An Yan is still covered with a thick blanket, wrapping himself completely in it.

Distressed, really distressed.

Yun Qian looked at the door like a thief, and when he was sure that no one was paying attention, he suddenly raised his hand and touched An Yan's face. Before An Yan could react and was about to ask, Yun Qian had nothing Without hesitation, he sealed everything he wanted to say with his mouth.

It turns out that only after being warmed can I know that I have been living in an extremely cold place before. It seems that God is indeed fair. No matter what was missing, He will definitely make up for it in another way.

"Are you all ready? I'm waiting for you." Yu Yuan suddenly poked his head in at this moment, and seeing such a spectacle, he felt that his three views suddenly became fragmented.

An Yan gently pushed Xin Yu away, still firmly grasping his wrist.

Yun Qian also smiled embarrassedly, bit his lower lip, raised his head and said softly to An Yan: "Continue tonight."

----------

It was the first time for a few people to come to the legendary forbidden land of fierce ghosts - the green house. Just looking at it from a distance, the old house exuding a gloomy atmosphere made people tremble uncontrollably.

Even in the daytime, the house still looks gloomy, maybe it's because of their psychology, they always feel that there are clusters of dirty green air floating around the three-storey old house, and they can even smell the air coming out of it. musty.

"No wonder people say this is some kind of haunted house. Wow, it just looks like this. It's scary without ghosts." Su Wenyu muttered softly.

"Everyone, try to be gentle when you go in. First, the house is in disrepair for a long time, and I'm afraid it won't be strong. Second, although we are here to investigate the case, we still don't want to disturb the quietness of the owner." The police chief in Thailand advised road.

Several people nodded, distributed gas masks at the door, changed into work clothes, and filed in with investigation boxes.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the photos of the owner Khan Pita and his wife when they were young, which were hung on the beams, and the tribute table was placed underneath.

Although they didn't believe in ghosts and gods, they still respectfully worshiped the owner of the house out of politeness, and devoutly threw coins into the merit box.

Zhao Qin and the others have already begun to investigate the suspicious footprints on the scene, and the wooden floor makes an unpleasant "creak" sound under their feet.

"This kind of pastry seems to be a brand in our country." Yu Yuan was taking pictures, but suddenly found a familiar bun on the tribute table.

Several people leaned over, picked up the bun and looked at it, then nodded: "Yes, it is a common brand in China, and the production date is the first of last month, it may be brought by the three deceased. Bar."

Yu Yuan nodded, and put the bread into the evidence bag: "Take it back and test the fingerprints on it."

"Team Yu, there are too many footprints at the scene. There are only five groups of newer ones. Even if the three deceased are excluded, there are still two groups of footprints, and they have been to the murder scene recently." Yun Qian used a plaster cast Printed footprints on the ground side said.

Yu Yuan looked at the footprints on the ground, then at the surrounding floor, and suddenly said, "Don't you think it's strange?"

Yunqian was stunned, and immediately realized: "It's a bit strange, this kind of haunted house that almost no one cares about, but it is exceptionally clean, and the floor is also, as if it is often cleaned by someone."

"When was the last time someone came to clean it?" Yu Yuan turned his head and asked.

"About three months ago, the descendants of the owner of the house came to clean and burn incense. Because this place is too remote, they don't come here often." The Thai police chief said.

"If it hasn't been cleaned for three months, there should be a slight dust accumulation." Yu Yuan reached out and touched the locker beside him, "But it was unexpectedly clean..."

"Yeah, not even the plastic film that covers the clothes has accumulated dust."

"Call the descendants of the owner of the house to confirm whether they have been here recently."

The Thai police nodded and immediately called the informant in the bureau to inquire about the situation.

"Officer Yu, we asked, and they really haven't been here."

Yu Yuan stroked his mustache, and looked up at the spiral staircase thoughtfully: "Even if you are an explorer, you don't have the leisure to clean the house for others."

"I'm afraid I'm going to die, so don't be in a hurry to leave." Yunqian shook his head, thinking that it would be ridiculous to say such a thing.

"That means, there are other people living here?" Yu Yuan was shocked, and immediately said, "Go upstairs and have a look."

Several people followed Yu Yuan upstairs, and the rest continued to investigate where they were.

The scene upstairs is similar to the one below. It is very clean. It looks like someone cleans it frequently, but even if someone lives here, they have to eat. But there is no kitchen utensils here, so it is impossible to order takeout every day. It had to be delivered here from the city, and they didn't think any takeaway restaurant would take this kind of order.

"Eh? This... seems to be women's long hair." Yun Qian, who was surveying the scene, suddenly pulled out a black hair from a corner.

An Yan immediately measured the length of his hair with a measuring ruler: "96 cm, it's a bit too long."

"Yeah, how can there be a little girl with such long hair now, it's almost one meter long."

"It's not the deceased Xu Qiucheng's, but the woman who might be living in this room?"

"Woman?" Yun Qian was stunned, "You mean, the murderer might be a woman?"

"There are three doubts. If it is a woman, then how did she drag the three dead to the back of the house and hang them on the tree by herself; if this is the first crime scene, why there is no trace of dragging; the openness of the dead Where are the wounds, and the green sawdust found in them."

"There are no cracks here, and all the wooden structures are intact, but there is an annex over there. Could it be that the wounds on the deceased were caused there?"

"No, that annex building is actually a gazebo. The space is very small and not enough to bear the weight of three people. We also saw it when we came. There is no sign of damage to that annex building."

Just when the few people were at a loss, the Thai police chief came running out of breath, saying that he had received an urgent call from Huiyuan's General Bureau of Criminal Investigation.

Yun Qian and An Yan looked at each other in surprise, then took the sheriff's cell phone.

It was Xiao Wu from the team who called. He didn't follow this time. He stayed in Huiyuan to visit relatives and friends of the deceased. Just today, when he visited Xiao Hu, Xu Qiucheng's university roommate, he got a shocking news.
