I am a super cop

Chapter 487 Chocolate Horror 【Seeking Monthly Pass】

As the New Year approaches, the streets and alleys of Jiangnan City are filled with festive atmosphere.

Many merchants are promoting sales, major companies are about to usher in the Spring Festival holiday, and major annual meetings are in full swing in the hotel.

In major restaurants and restaurants, reunions of classmates, comrades-in-arms, and colleagues are often the highlight, and there are often noisy noises in the private rooms.

And in Seremban branch.

As usual, everyone began to use their spare time to clean up every corner of the Furong Branch during work breaks.

Just won the "advanced work unit" medal issued by the province, so in the Furong branch, everyone is more motivated.

In the criminal investigation team three, Officer Wang, who had just finished cleaning the corridor, walked back to his seat with a hammer on his back, and then he took out his wallet from the drawer, and began to look through the change inside.

Lu Weiwei glanced at him secretly, and asked, "Has Lao Wang hidden pocket money again recently?"

"Do people like me need pocket money?" Officer Wang looked at the only few photos of Grandpa Mao in his wallet, and nodded immediately: "Well, I really need it."

"It's almost Chinese New Year, don't you think sister-in-law will give you more?" Gu Chen also felt sorry for Police Officer Wang.

After all, every time the wallet looks bulging, it is actually filled with invoices.

In response to this, the nickname of "Wang Tie" came into being...

Of course, this is not the fault of Police Officer Wang, the main reason is that the financial power is not in his own hands.

Officer Wang smiled and said, "A person like me who regards money as dung, how can he value money too much? As the saying goes, money is not everything."

"But I think this sentence is one of the most famous nonsense in the world." Gu Chen answered directly: "Is there anything that is omnipotent? No, right?"

"It's true that money is not everything, but there seems to be fewer and fewer things that money can't buy. Have you noticed? It seems that a piece of Grandpa Mao is becoming less and less valuable."

"I agree with this." He Junchao immediately raised his hand and joined the topic: "Anyway, I'm short of money recently, especially at the end of the year, and this class reunion is one wave after another."

"The night before yesterday was an elementary school reunion, last night was a junior high school reunion, and this year's evening, it will be a high school reunion."

"A friend gets a red envelope for getting married, a friend has a red envelope for a child's full moon wine, and a friend has a red envelope for a housewarming. I feel that I will have to work for nothing this month. Grandpa Mao is not enough to spend."

"Then you are miserable." Gu Chen smiled and said, "So I can only say that a gentleman loves money and must get it in a proper way. Money should not be put above everything else, but necessary expenditures are indispensable."

Lu Weiwei looked at He Junchao and smiled: "So the reality is indeed like this, for example, compared to the weakness of being poor, ugliness is nothing worth mentioning, isn't it so?"

"Poverty is like a mask, it can cover your smile, but it can never cover your tears."

He Junchao was thoughtful: "Actually, I have been thinking about ways to save money recently, but I found another problem. If poverty limits your imagination, why can you still think of so many ways to save money? It feels like life is full of contradictions.”

"He Junchao." Seeing that He Junchao was caught in the chaos of the dinner party and couldn't extricate himself, he began to doubt his life. Police officer Wang also said directly: "If you want me to say, some parties can be postponed as soon as possible, and it is not necessary to go to all parties."

"If the purse really can't bear it, then don't go, so as not to suffer at the wine table, I have a deep understanding of this."

Patting himself on the chest, Police Officer Wang thoughtfully said: "Take my last party as an example. In the elementary school party, two-thirds of the people in the class I couldn't name. You said this party is so embarrassing and interesting." ?"

"Then you are worse than He Jun." After hearing this, Lu Weiwei covered her mouth and snickered, "It's no wonder that your old Wang's wallet at the end of the past few years has been quite strong. Co-authoring saved the money for the dinner party."

Officer Wang laughed and said: "I see it through. The people in this party are roughly divided into two types. One type has some savings and is reluctant to buy it, and the other type is owed a lot of money." Debt, buy this and that.”

"Generally, people who spend a lot of money may not have a good life, but they pay actively."

"These elementary school students are roughly divided into two types. One is frugal as if they will live forever, and the other is extravagant as if they will die tomorrow."

"I will always do what I can to spend money and live within my means. I must spend the money that should be spent, and I will never spend the money that should not be spent."

Glancing at He Junchao, Police Officer Wang said again: "The reason why I can save some change now is all due to my own comprehension back then. When we came to this world, we can only toss and turn for [-] days."

"I worked hard to make money, and I didn't have time for maintenance and travel. One day, I kicked my feet, rolled my eyes, and died."

"Then pushed into the cremation room..."

"Life and death, don't cry out for injustice, money, status, and beautiful women, if you close your eyes, it won't belong to you."

At the end of Police Officer Wang's speech, even the jingle came up, which caused everyone to burst into laughter.

Gu Chen smiled and said, "Senior Brother Wang is right."

"Yes." Police officer Wang was quite satisfied, and said with a smile directly: "This is for those who earn money and are desperate, those who are obsessed with money, and those who have money and are reluctant to spend it."

Lu Weiwei was thoughtful: "Well, I want to buy this and that even if I owe a debt. It seems that I should listen to Lao Wang and do what I can."

At the same time as everyone was discussing, the office phone rang, and Yuan Shasha hurried to answer it. After some communication, Yuan Shasha hung up the phone. "

"What's the situation?" Gu Chen asked.

Yuan Shasha frowned slightly: "A resident of the Green Community was poisoned and has died. We need to go and investigate. It was the deceased's sister who called the police."

"Poisoned?" Gu Chen frowned, and said, "We are building a food safety city, how could we be poisoned? What did you eat?"

Yuan Shasha shook her head: "It's not clear yet, we need to investigate immediately."

"That's it." Officer Wang immediately made arrangements, and said, "Let's let the nearby auxiliary police rush over first, Lu Weiwei and Gu Chen, you two come with me."

Glancing at Yuan Shasha, Officer Wang said again: "Xiao Yuan stays here for support."

"Yes." Seeing that she was not called for this action, Yuan Shasha's previous excitement suddenly cooled down.

Everyone took the police equipment and drove directly to the scene without caring too much.

Receiving the police like this is in contact with various callers every day.

According to the clues provided by the caller, assessing the victim's situation has become Gu Chen's daily routine, so he is also very accustomed to handling it.

When they arrived at the scene of the incident, the auxiliary police officers had already pulled up the cordon. When they saw the criminal investigation team coming, they were naturally as well-behaved as chickens and would not foolishly seek any trouble.

"What's the situation?" Gu Chen directly asked an auxiliary policeman.

"A family in the community found a woman who was poisoned and died. The time of the incident may have happened last night. I'm not sure, so I'm waiting for you to come and investigate." The auxiliary police said.

Gu Chen took the lead, came to the stairs, and asked, "Which one? Show us."

"Come with me, on the second floor." An auxiliary policeman said.

Everyone came to the scene and opened the door. At this moment, a middle-aged woman was sitting on a seat in the living room.

Seeing other policemen rushing to the scene, she stood up directly and came to Gu Chen.

"Are you the relative of the deceased?" Gu Chen asked.

"I am her sister." The woman said.

Gu Chen looked around and continued to ask: "Then what's your sister's situation? Can you take me to have a look?"

"Of course, it's in the room." The middle-aged woman sighed and went directly to her sister's room.

At this moment, there was also a middle-aged woman lying on the big bed in the room. Gu Chen stepped forward to check the situation, and found that the pupils of the other party had already dilated, and the tip of her nose had lost her breath.

Judging from the expression of the deceased, it seemed to be in great pain.

Gu Chen couldn't help frowning, and said to the woman beside him, "How did she die? Were you by your side when you left?"

"Not by her side." The middle-aged woman shook her head, and said directly: "After the party last night, I sent her home. I called her early this morning and no one answered, so I came to her house to look for her in person, but it was very difficult. It's a pity that when I entered my sister's house, she was already like this."

"Then how do you know it's poisoning?" Lu Weiwei expressed curiosity.

The middle-aged woman was not timid, and said directly: "Because I have studied medicine and know the symptoms of some patients."

Looking at her sister's body lying on the bed with a painful face, the younger sister couldn't help but sadly said: "My sister's appearance is clearly a symptom of poisoning, and it can't be wrong."

"Don't be in a hurry." Gu Chen pushed her aside, then put on white gloves, and began to conduct further tests on the deceased.

It took a few minutes before Gu Chen confirmed: "The deceased did not have any obvious wounds, but judging from his physical characteristics, it was indeed poisoned as you said."

"Sister." Hearing this, the younger sister lay on top of her and burst into tears.

Gu Chen hurriedly pulled her aside: "Miss, you are so easy to destroy the scene, please lean aside first, and don't get close to the deceased."

"But my sister..."

"I know." Gu Chen also took out his notebook at the moment of nodding, and pointed the law enforcement recorder at the woman.

Then he glanced at Lu Weiwei again.

Lu Weiwei understood immediately, so she patted Police Officer Wang on the shoulder and said, "Old Wang, let's search the house and see if there are any clues."

"Yes." Officer Wang readily agreed, and immediately put on his white gloves, and began to search the house.

Soon, Gu Chen called the woman aside and asked, "Last night you said your sister had a dinner party, were you there then?"

"Yes." The woman nodded and said, "My sister and I work in the same unit, and I was at the party last night."

"What's your name? How old are you, and your ID number?" Gu Chen said.

The woman readily agreed, and immediately told Gu Chen her basic information according to Gu Chen's request: "My name is Yuan Xiaomei, I am 34 this year, and my ID number is..."

"What about your sister?" After listening to Yuan Xiaomei's introduction to herself, Gu Chen asked again.

"My sister's name is Yuan Yang, she's 35 this year." Yuan Xiaomei told Gu Chen impatiently.

Gu Chen looked at the other party strangely, and then at the deceased Yuan Yang lying on the bed.

Although the two are sisters, they don't look alike, but that's not the point.

The point is that when Yuan Yang passed away, she was not surrounded by her family, but by her younger sister, which is very strange in itself.

But looking at the bedside decoration, the man in the wedding photo should be her husband, but why is it her sister who calls the police instead of her husband?
Coupled with the fact that the deceased died of poisoning, this made Gu Chen even more suspicious.

He asked Yuan Xiaomei calmly: "Where is your sister's family? Like her husband."

"They are separated." Yuan Xiaomei thought for a while, and said directly: "But they are not divorced yet, they are just planning to divorce, and they are temporarily separated."

"That is to say, Yuan Yang usually lives alone, and there is no one else at home?" Gu Chen said.

"Yes." Yuan Xiaomei nodded.

Gu Chen frowned, looked around for a week, and continued to ask: "Can you tell me about your situation last night? The more specific the better."

"Okay." Yuan Xiaomei wiped away her tears, and then began to talk about what happened with her sister Yuan Yang last night. "My sister Yuan Yang and I both work at toll booths on the provincial border."

"Yesterday was the first day when our provincial border toll stations were cancelled. From now on, everyone will go their separate ways. Therefore, after discussing with these old colleagues, everyone chose to come to a restaurant in Jiangnan City for dinner. It can be regarded as a breakup meal."

"After all, everyone has worked in this toll station for many years, and they all have special feelings for the toll station. After the promotion of ETC, everyone's life will be difficult. In addition to the cancellation of the toll station, there may be fewer opportunities to get together in the future, so Everyone was drinking to their heart’s content yesterday.”

"That is to say, you all had dinner at a restaurant yesterday, could it be food poisoning?" Gu Chen can only confirm that the deceased Yuan Yang died of poisoning, but it is difficult for Gu Chen to say what kind of poison it is.

But when Yuan Xiaomei said it was a dinner party, the first thing that came to mind was food.

Yuan Xiaomei frowned slightly, shook her head and said, "Probably not, I have also called and asked everyone in the group, and no one has any symptoms of poisoning."

"And we ate every dish last night. I tasted all the dishes and wine my sister ate, so why did my sister get poisoned but we didn't? So it's definitely not food poisoning."

Gu Chen fell into deep thought, and after thinking for a few seconds, he asked, "Did you have any contact with other things besides drinking at the party yesterday?"

"Also, has your sister Yuan Yang offended anyone before? Was the offended person present at the time?"

Also confused by Gu Chen's series of questions, Yuan Xiaomei scratched the back of her head, and then quickly recalled: "It's not for nothing that I offended someone. Before, my sister did have some trivial matters with a few people from the unit. Colleagues had disagreements."

"And the two sides are incompatible. Just a few days ago, I had a quarrel with a colleague, but the toll booths at the provincial border will be cancelled, and we may never see each other again from now on."

"So everyone didn't take it seriously. Those colleagues who had conflicts with my sister yesterday were indeed there."

"However, when we interacted, everyone was in harmony. My sister even hugged someone she had conflicts with. I don't think it looks like there is any hatred."

"Don't think so, be objective." Gu Chen glanced at the deceased Yuan Yang, then turned around and asked, "Did these colleagues who had conflicts with your sister at that time give your sister anything?"

"Something?" was also reminded by Gu Chen again, Yuan Xiaomei suddenly realized, and said: "I remembered, it seems that there is really a box of chocolates, yes, it is chocolates."

"What's the situation?" Gu Chen was curious by Yuan Xiaomei's excitement, and asked directly: "That is to say, the colleague who had a conflict with your sister at the dinner last night gave your sister a box of chocolates?"

"Yes." Yuan Xiaomei nodded.

"Then besides your sister Yuan Yang, did he give it to anyone else?" Gu Chen asked again.

Yuan Xiaomei shook her head: "No, because I had a feud with my sister before, and the two even fought in the office, so everyone thinks that the two are incompatible."

"But what happened yesterday really surprised me. The man came over to apologize to my sister, and gave her a box of chocolates as an apology."

"We were all shocked at the time, and felt that this guy would be polite sometimes, but now that I think about it, I think this guy is the most suspicious. She even beat my sister a few days ago, and gave away things when we broke up. Just give it to my sister alone."

"I think she should have a specific purpose, otherwise she wouldn't be so kind. Yes, she must have a problem, it must be..."

It was also under Gu Chen's reminder that he recalled all kinds of suspicious points from last night.

Yuan Xiaomei suddenly became excited, and she looked at Gu Chen differently: "Comrade policeman, it must be her, it must be that box of chocolates."

"Are you talking about this box of chocolates?" Lu Weiwei also heard the conversation between the two, and when she searched for clues in the living room, she found this box of chocolates that had been opened, so she should take it over to ask about the situation.

Gu Chen took the chocolate box, and Liang asked in front of Yuan Xiaomei, "Can you confirm it's this box?"

Just as Yuan Xiaomei wanted to reach out to grab it, Gu Chen immediately withdrew it and said, "Just look at it, don't touch it with your hands, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

It was also reminded by Gu Chen that Yuan Xiaomei came to her senses and said, "That's right, I have never touched this box of chocolates."

Thinking of almost leaving fingerprints on the chocolate box just now, Yuan Xiaomei said gratefully: "Thank you comrade police for reminding me just now."

"Then are you sure?" Gu Chen asked.

Yuan Xiaomei squinted her eyes, and with Gu Chen's cooperation, she checked the chocolate box thoroughly.

After thinking for a while, Yuan Xiaomei suddenly took out her mobile phone, opened it and said, "I took a lot of photos yesterday, and there should be a brand of chocolate. Wait a minute, let me see first."

"No rush, take your time." Hearing that Yuan Xiaomei had a photo, Gu Chen looked at Lu Weiwei, and the two felt relieved.

Also after some searching, Yuan Xiaomei's face was suddenly shocked, and she looked at Gu Chen dumbfounded.
