Junyue Community is located at No. 141 Zhuli Road in the northwest of Jiangbei District. This is a dilapidated residential area. It was built in the early 80s. At that time, it was quite popular among civil servants because it was relatively close to the center of Jiangbei District. However, as the Yangtze River With the rapid development of the city's economy, these unreasonably designed and dilapidated houses have been eliminated by the white-collar class, and rich people are not willing to live here.

The house here has flaws in its original design. For example, the gap between the buildings is too small, making it difficult for sunlight to shine in, and there is no open space to plant flowers and trees. In addition, the road in and out is too small, making it difficult for two cars to meet. Therefore, People living here are old people and migrant workers from other places, so the management is chaotic. There are only four old security guards on duty at two gates in the entire community.

Because these low-income people cannot afford high property management fees, there is no formal monitoring room. Although there are monitors installed in the community, there are many blind spots. Only two monitors at the door are operating normally. However, the surveillance video The shelf life is one month.

Guo Liang, 79 years old, was originally a worker in a state-owned paper mill. Later, the paper mill was disbanded due to environmental issues. The paper mill was acquired by real estate developers and built into a residential area.Guo Liang received a one-time compensation of 25 yuan. Since then, he has lost his job and can only do odd jobs here and there to maintain his livelihood. However, he has many physical problems and suffers from chronic hepatitis, which is the biggest torture for him. I have to take about 100 yuan of medicine every day to control my condition.

His wife passed away due to illness ten years ago. His son and daughter-in-law are unwilling to live with him, let alone support him. His daughter is also married, so he has to live alone in Junyue Community.It turned out that he lived in Room 17, Building 702, but because he was too old to climb to the 7th floor, he posted an advertisement on the bulletin board of the community, hoping to exchange houses with someone who lived on the first or second floor. He is willing to subsidize the other party 20 yuan.

As a result, he got his wish on June 2018, 6. A 1-year-old resident was willing to exchange houses with him, so he moved from Room 40, 17-unit, Building 3, to Room 702, 14-unit, Building 2. Not only did he suffer from chronic Hepatitis and neurasthenia. For more than ten years, he had to rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep.He takes the most effective form of triazolam, taking more than two tablets a day.

Guo Liang is kind, low-key, and easy-going, and gets along well with everyone he knows in the community. However, he has low self-esteem because he does not live with his son, so he is lonely and reserved. His only hobby is reminiscing about the good times he and his wife had in the past.

Every day he goes to the small pavilion in the community to watch people playing chess.He never said anything while watching chess, just to pass the time.When someone asked him to play chess, he quickly shook his head and said he couldn't play. Of course, it wasn't that he couldn't play chess, but because he didn't want to cause displeasure with others by playing chess.He is such a cautious person.

When it's almost noon every day, he goes to the gate of the community to buy two handfuls of vegetables and half a catty of pork, or some cheap seafood, and cooks meals at home.He cooked a little more at noon, and after eating half of it, he put the food in the refrigerator. At dinner, he took it out to heat it up and ate it. He had been living like this every day since his wife passed away.

On this day, the weather was very good, neither hot nor dry. In the clear sky, sheep-like clouds were wandering leisurely. There was a stone round table in the small pavilion of Junyue Community, with four stone stools surrounding the round table. Lao Wang and Lao Li put the chess pieces on the round table very early and started playing chess.At this time, a middle-aged man named Lu Wei walked into the pavilion and saw the two of them playing chess. He asked, "Brother Wang, why didn't Brother Guo Liang come to watch chess?"

Lu Wei lives opposite Guo Liang, and he and Guo Liang are relatively close.Today he thought Guo Liang would come to see them play chess as usual, but he didn't see him.Lao Wang said that he didn't see Guo Liang and that he might have gone to watch chess elsewhere.After Lu Wei heard this, he walked around the community and checked every place where people were playing chess or where there were many people, but he didn't see Guo Liang.

Guo Liang was 25 years older than Lu Wei. He regarded Lu Wei as his old friend. He would talk to Lu Wei if he had anything to say, and would ask him to eat delicious food.Lu Wei likes Guo Liang's easy-going and kind-heartedness. He is very sincere to Guo Liang and often accompanies Guo Liang to the hospital to see doctors, buy rice and medicine, which is better than Guo Liang's son.

Guo Liang rarely goes anywhere else except to buy groceries. Today he didn't play chess in the community, so where would he go?Lu Wei was a little worried, so he took out his mobile phone and called Guo Liang's mobile phone. After a few seconds, the call was connected, but no one answered.

He felt strange because Guo Liang never refused to answer his calls. He didn't believe it, so he redialed Guo Liang's cell phone until the ringing stopped, but no one answered.Lu Wei was a little nervous: Will something happen to Guo Liang?Guo Liang has reached the end of his life. If the wind blows, his candle will be extinguished in an instant.

Guo Liang told Lu Wei to call his mobile phone if he didn't see him in the community. He was afraid that no one would know if he died in the house.Lu Wei promised to do what he said.At this time, Lu Wei had an ominous premonition in his heart.

He came to the door of Guo Liang's house and knocked hard, but no one responded.He had no choice but to take out his cell phone and redial Guo Liang's number. As a result, the phone rang in the house and no one answered it for a long time.If Guo Liang goes out to do errands or visit relatives, he will definitely take his cell phone away. If the cell phone is left in the room but no one answers it, it means that something may have happened to Guo Liang.

Lu Wei's heart began to feel heavy, and he felt that he had to go to Guo Liang's room to see what was going on.Guo Liang once gave him two keys, just because he was afraid that no one would know if he died in the house.Lu Wei opened the door to his home and went back to get the key.

After getting the key, he first opened the iron door on the outside, then opened the wooden door inside and walked in.The heavy curtains in the living room were drawn, and the lighting on the second floor was poor, making the living room very dark. He casually turned on the switch next to the door, and the headlights instantly came on.

There was no one in the living room. He walked to the bedroom door and knocked on the door. He found that the door was unlocked. He pushed the door open and it was still dark inside. He turned on the headlight again and saw Guo Liang lying on the bed. He was lying there motionless in his pajamas.He walked forward and called several times, but Guo Liang didn't respond. He stretched out his hand to touch Guo Liang's face, and felt a chill on his fingertips. He yelled "no," and then pushed Guo Liang, only to find that he was already stiff. .He quickly walked out of the bedroom and called Guo Huai, Guo Liang's son.

After receiving his call, Guo Huai said: He and his wife were traveling in Mount Lushan and would go back in two days. He asked Lu Wei to help take Guo Liang's body to the crematorium for cremation.Lu Weiwei scolded him for being worse than a beast and having no conscience, and then hung up the phone.

He stood there thinking what should he do?He is not a relative of Guo Liang, and there is no need to fulfill his responsibilities as a son to Guo Huai.If he takes Guo Liang's body to the crematorium for cremation, what if Guo Huai bites back and sues him for self-assertion and demands compensation?
He felt that the best way was to call the police to take control, so he called 110. After the police officer asked about the situation, 110 told him to stay at the scene and not let anyone in. The police would arrive soon.Lu Wei said that he promised to do as she said.

A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Yiming arrived with members of the No. 1 Serious Crime Team, cordoned off the scene, then put on investigation equipment to investigate the scene.

Luo Jin first inspected Guo Liang's body. He turned on the multi-band light source and examined Guo Liang's face and neck. No scars were found on it. Then he unbuttoned Guo Liang's pajamas, took off his pajamas, and checked No abnormalities were found in his chest.

He turned the body over and saw dark red spots on the back. Rigor mortis had formed and reached its peak, which is when it was most stiff. The lips were cyanotic, the teeth were trismused, the eyelids were closed, the cornea was transparent, and the pupils were bilateral. They were equal in size, and there were no bleeding spots in the eyelid bulbar conjunctiva of both eyes... Luo Jin judged that the deceased died of sleeping pill poisoning.

"Luo Jin, how's the situation?" Jiang Yiming asked.

"Through observation and analysis, I think the deceased should have died of sleeping pill poisoning."

"Your analysis is good. I found an empty bottle of triazolam on the ground. Triazolam is the most effective and fastest sleeping pill. When was the approximate time of death?"

"Between eight and ten o'clock last night, about 12 hours ago. Captain Jiang, did you find the bottle cap?" Luo Jin asked.

"Not yet. I think the cover may have rolled under the bed. After you have observed and removed the body, we will remove the bed and see if it is under the bed... Do you think the deceased committed suicide or was murdered?"

"The deceased did not have any resistance wounds. If someone forced him to take sleeping pills, he would definitely resist and struggle, so there would be scars. Even the smallest scars would be detected by multi-band light sources. Therefore, I think the deceased should have committed suicide."

"Let's not jump to conclusions prematurely. Didn't Wan Yiran also die after Ai Qiusheng used a trick to take a large amount of sleeping pills?"

"Who would kill a 79-year-old man? Judging from his face and skin color, the deceased should have suffered from chronic hepatitis. It has reached a serious stage. I am afraid that he will die of the disease in less than three years. Therefore, I think he killed The possibility is very small.”

"I hope so, but since we have already appeared on the scene, we must conduct an autopsy on Guo Liang. Maybe the result is not what we imagined."

Luo Jin nodded. He admired Jiang Yiming very much for his compassionate heart and that he valued life more than anything else, even if the deceased was an octogenarian.
