Doomsday: I can see the health bar, kill monsters and drop treasure.

Chapter 407 The Detective King

Of course this was not a sixth sense, but Wang Tao saw that both women had a negative status below their health bars.

[Poisoning: Common toxins with certain addictive properties, which can cause death if taken for a long time. Detoxification can be achieved without taking it within seven days]

Both women were poisoned, and it was an addictive drug!

Wang Tao's first reaction when he saw this state was that they had taken some kind of drug, but after thinking about it more carefully, it was probably not the case. Although Wang Tao has never seen drugs, according to his understanding, drugs cannot be resisted by willpower. Even if they can persist for seven days, there is no way to eradicate them.

And what is written on this poisoning status is that the poison can be detoxified within seven days if it is not used again...

Wang Tao guessed that this was not the kind of drug he understood, but something that appeared after the end of the world, or that someone had a superpower or even awakened!

It's the end of the world now, so it's not surprising to have all kinds of weird abilities.

If these two women were not in this state, then Wang Tao felt that it might really be an accident. But with this poisonous state and this addictive drug, there is a high probability that there is another hidden reason behind this matter!

Yao Guodong did not have such a poisoning state before, so it was obviously not Yao Guodong who led them to take poison, but they hid it from Yao Guodong...

However, Wang Tao didn't say much. After all, she was the mayor's wife. If there was any scandal, it would be better not to spread it. Otherwise, not only Yao Guodong but also the entire city hall would be embarrassed. And it’s not easy for Wang Tao to explain how he could tell that the other party was poisoned...

Anyway, Wang Tao feels that as long as the city hall investigates these two women, they will definitely find something. It depends on whether they are willing.

"Wang Tao, did you discover something..."

Han Rui asked quietly, leaning against Wang Tao. She knows Wang Tao well. Wang Tao is not a person who likes to make blind decisions. If Wang Tao says there is a problem, then he has probably discovered something.

Wang Tao didn't answer, but Han Rui saw that look - he did find something, but it was not convenient to say for the time being.

Han Rui understood immediately. She closed her mouth and asked Wang Tao again when she got back.

The next step was Yao Guodong's autopsy. The City Hall disemboweled him directly in front of everyone.

Those who are still on the scene are capable people. Although he is not as professional as a forensic doctor, he may still be able to see something.

It is worth mentioning that before the operation, Yao Guodong's second wife ran out of the room. She cried and asked if Yao Guodong's body could not be cut open, so as to leave him intact.

It's hard not to make people suspicious when saying something like this at this time.

However, she didn't do anything to hinder the autopsy. When Gu Yun made it clear that she couldn't do it, she returned to the room crying, looking very sad.

Naturally, everyone was suspicious of Yao Guodong, the second wife, but seeing that she did not hinder everyone's work and cried very sadly, everyone felt that she might really be sad for Yao Guodong... Some people were still praising the couple. Deep love.

"Too fake."

But Han Rui whispered in Wang Tao's ear.

"It's true."

Not only Han Rui, but Lan Yulian also whispered.

"Is it so fake..."

To be honest, Wang Tao didn't see much of it being fake. If Han Rui didn't remind him and ignored all external factors and only looked at their expressions and movements at this time, Wang Tao also felt that the two women were really sad for Yao Guodong's death. .

"As a woman, I can feel that she is fake!"

Lan Yu explained in a low voice.

"The sixth sense of being a woman!"

Han Rui also echoed.

"Women, you are really good at acting!"

Wang Tao sighed.

However, after feeling two eyes staring at him, Wang Tao quickly held the small hands of Lan Yulian and Han Rui.

"I'm talking about them, not you."

"Humph~"

Wang Tao was communicating quietly with the two women, but he did not give up using his mental power to observe Yao Guodong's body.

The mental power detection looked more carefully than these forensic doctors, but still found nothing.

After a while, the forensic doctor shook his head at Gu Yun.

Gu Yun looked at the superpowers present again, and everyone including Wang Tao shook their heads.

So Gu Yun said:

"Then take Mayor Yao's body to the City Hall first."

The autopsy cannot be completed just like that, and subsequent inspections must be carried out carefully. After all, Yao Guodong's death was too strange. However, this cannot be achieved in a short time. It is better to remove Yao Guodong's body first. It will definitely not work if it is kept in Yao Guodong's house.

During the autopsy, questioning of Yao Guodong's family members also began simultaneously.

There are six people in Yao Guodong's villa, namely Yao Guodong himself, two wives, two nannies and a driver and bodyguard.

After the autopsy was completed, their interviews were initially completed. These people all have alibis, and they have no motive for killing...

"We can't find out for the time being. We will probably tell the public that Mayor Yao died accidentally..."

Gu Yun lit a cigarette, came to Wang Tao and sighed.

There will be many follow-up investigations, but Gu Yun obviously doesn't have much hope.

Now is not the past, with all kinds of magical abilities emerging one after another. Even if Yao Guodong was really murdered, it might not be possible to find out. Not to mention, all the clues now indicate that this may be an accident.

"Ugh……"

Wang Tao sighed. There was no sad expression on his face, and he didn't need to pretend to be sad. After all, he and Yao Guodong were not very familiar... Wang Tao was just a little regretful, because he made Yao Guodong owe him a big favor. Now this is a complete waste.

"It's already noon, please come to the city hall for dinner..."

Gu Yun said to everyone.

Everyone nodded, and after Yao Guodong's body was taken out first, everyone else also went out one after another. Including Yao Guodong's two wives and others, they also have to leave. The villa must be sealed and the crime scene must be protected. Those close to Yao Guodong who had contact with him must also continue to be investigated. After all, this is the death of the mayor. I won’t say whether I can find out anything. Anyway, I must try my best.

When Wang Tao and his party came out, Han Rui suddenly looked somewhere.

"what happened?"

Wang Tao was using his mental power to secretly observe everyone, and immediately noticed Han Rui's movements.

"I always feel that something is not right there... But I can't tell what is wrong... Maybe it's my misunderstanding. You know my job. When I encounter this kind of thing, I always want to solve the case... "

Han Rui shook her head in a low voice.

Wang Tao followed Han Rui's gaze and saw that more than thirty meters away from the door of the villa, there were several sparse pine trees covered with snow. These pine trees were short, thin, and looked stunted.

He Jijun and Xiang Hongbin didn't feel anything was wrong, including Wang Tao. But Wang Tao took Han Rui's words very seriously, because Han Rui had a different hidden attribute——

[Arrest: Easier to catch criminal suspects]

"Let's go over and take a look."

Wang Tao said immediately.

"..."

Han Rui opened her mouth, but didn't say much more. She just felt a little warm when she saw that Wang Tao paid so much attention to her words.

However, when Wang Tao and others walked into the yard, where Yao Guodong died, Wang Tao suddenly stopped.

"Okay, no need to go."

The corners of Wang Tao's mouth were slightly raised.

Han Rui and others didn't know why. Based on their feelings towards Wang Tao, Wang Tao obviously didn't like to give up halfway, so - Wang Tao might have discovered something! However, they didn't ask any questions and followed Gu Yun to the restaurant of the city hall.

Although Mayor Yao had just died, it would not be good for them to eat and drink here, but after all, they were called here by Gu Yun and the others, and they didn't even eat, so they had to take care of their meals.

After dinner, Wang Tao walked around the city hall again and felt familiar.

Of course, he was not just wandering around, he wanted to get to know these administrative officials. Especially those who have a good or bad relationship with Yao Guodong are the focus of observation. "Mr. Wang!"

Wang Tao suddenly heard someone calling him, turned around and saw that it was Cui Sheng.

There are a group of men and women around Cui Sheng, dressed similarly to Cui Sheng, they should all be secretaries of the city hall.

"It's Secretary Cui!"

Wang Tao responded.

Those people were surprised and envious when they saw Wang Tao's friendly attitude towards Cui Sheng. Obviously, they knew Wang Tao.

Cui Sheng quickly introduced Wang Tao to those people.

"This is Mr. Wang, the awakener of the Spark Club..."

"Mr. Wang, they are all my colleagues..."

Cui Sheng simply omitted the introduction of those people.

However, this group of people was obviously very interested in Wang Tao. They ignored Cui Sheng's eyes and started introducing themselves directly.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, I have long admired your name! My name is Wen Dazhi..."

"My name is Tang Chunyi..."

"My name is Guande..."

"..."

It’s not easy to get a chance to meet a big boss. If you don’t be thick-skinned at this time, you will regret it later!

Wang Tao smiled and nodded, looking very approachable.

He could tell that this group of people was vaguely dominated by Cui Sheng. Half of them were ordinary people, and only a few were first-level superpowers. Cui Sheng, a second-level superpower user, is already considered the strongest among them.

Among them, two people made Wang Tao take a second look.

It was Wen Dazhi who spoke first and Tang Chunyi who spoke second.

Wen Dazhi is a bit handsome, much better looking than Cui Sheng, a bald middle-aged man. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that he is not only a first-level superpower, but he also has a hidden attribute - this is the awakened one. Seedling!

As for the other Tang Chunyi, even Wang Tao, who was used to seeing beautiful women, thought she was very beautiful, especially her pair of peach blossom eyes. She didn't know if she winked at Wang Tao on purpose, which was very attractive. As for her strength, she was just an ordinary first-level superpower with no hidden attributes, so Wang Tao simply ignored her.

Wang Tao did not hide his gaze, and everyone could see that Wang Tao stayed on them for a second longer. They all sighed inwardly when they found out that it was the most handsome and beautiful person among them.

Sure enough, people are visual animals. When you meet a stranger for the first time, whether you are male or female, good looks are definitely a plus.

But what surprised them was that Wang Tao did not look at Tang Chunyi, a beautiful woman, but patted Wen Dazhi on the shoulder.

"The strength is good."

Although Wen Dazhi is indeed the second strongest person in their group after Cui Sheng, he is only at the first level of strength. Is it worthy for Wang Tao, the awakened person, to say that he is good? Everyone was a little puzzled.

Wen Dazhi was a little excited. Could it be that this big boss took a fancy to him? The "favour" refers to being favored by Wang Tao like Cui Sheng.

While he was still thinking about whether Wang Tao would ask him any questions later and how he would answer to make Wang Tao happy, Wang Tao did not say anything more, but waved directly to them.

"You guys, get busy, I'll go over first."

"Hey, walk slowly!"

"Mr. Wang, walk slowly!"

"..."

Looking at Wang Tao's leaving figure, Wen Dazhi clenched his fists, feeling a little excited and a little confused.

"This strength should be average. I am self-aware...but Mr. Wang said that I am good. Could it be that...I have some potential? Then I have to work harder! But it is best to ask Mr. Wang for advice..."

……

After Wang Tao left, he smiled and shook his head.

He said that Wen Dazhi was very good, naturally because he had hidden attributes. Wang Tao doesn't mind encouraging people with hidden attributes. They have to work hard and don't let their hidden attributes go to waste!

Anyway, for Wang Tao, this is just a matter of words.

After Wang Tao walked around again, he returned to Gu Yun.

"It feels like you guys are a bit busy here..."

Wang Tao said bluntly.

"Alas, the disaster relief work finally got on the right track. It was supposed to be a little easier in the future, but Mayor Yao's accident caused the work to become chaotic again... Without his command, the follow-up work will be busy for a long time... "

Gu Yun sighed helplessly.

Yao Guodong can become the mayor of Changhe Base as an ordinary person. His personal ability is obviously beyond doubt. Gu Yun thought he couldn't compare. Without Yao Guodong, all subsequent arrangements would have to be rearranged, which would be very troublesome. Maybe a few more people will freeze to death as a result... There is no way to avoid this chain reaction, after all, the person who died was the highest administrator in the base.

"Come on, if you need anything, you can call me anytime."

Wang Tao patted Gu Yun's shoulder.

"Yes, I may have to trouble Mr. Wang these days..."

Gu Yun smiled bitterly.

"Haha, it's okay. Then I'll go back first."

The snow outside was still heavy, and it took some time for Wang Tao to return home.

As soon as she entered the door, Han Rui quickly hugged Wang Tao's arm.

"Wang Tao~What did you find?"

She had just held it in all this time without asking. She knew that Wang Tao must have discovered something.

"I found out... Yao Guodong was definitely killed by him."

Wang Tao said with a serious expression.

"How to say?"

Han Rui was a little excited. Wang Tao found the clue!

"Because I saw footprints near the pine trees you think are problematic, and they were the footprints at the same time as Yao Guodong last night."

Although Wang Tao saw Yao Guodong's two wives being poisoned before, he could not 100% guarantee that Yao Guodong killed himself. It's not impossible that his two wives secretly smoked something behind Yao Guodong's back.

But when Wang Tao detected faint footprints under the snow next to the pine trees through his mental power, Wang Tao knew that Yao Guodong's death was not an accident. When Yao Guodong fell in the snow, there was always a person next to him. Watch!

This person did not notify anyone, causing Yao Guodong to freeze to death. He is obviously related to the murderer, or he is the murderer.

And if he is assumed to be the murderer, then another question of Wang Tao will be solved - why did Yao Guodong keep staggering around in the snow after urinating and just didn't go home? This is not because he is drunk. As a person with super powers, he is not that easy to get drunk. He also knows his priorities and will not drink alcohol at this time. But because he was affected by this murderer, he couldn't go home.

As for what kind of ability can affect Yao Guodong, making him wander around in place and unable to return home...

Wang Tao is too familiar with that - mental attacks!

The distance between those pine trees and Yao Guodong is exactly the distance that many spiritual attacks can trigger!

Then Wang Tao has reason to guess that Yao Guodong was affected by some kind of mental attack, which caused Yao Guodong's cognitive problems, causing Yao Guodong to mistakenly think that the snow was his bed, so he fell down and could not get up again.

If these speculations are true, then Wang Tao feels that the murderer is not very strong. Because people with strong mental attacks, such as himself, can kill Yao Guodong instantly, so why bother...

As for who it is, Wang Tao doesn't know, but at least there is a scope for investigation.

And there is a simple and crude method of speculation.

"Who benefits the most from Yao Guodong's death?"

If you combine the two, you might be able to find something.

However, when Han Rui and the others were trying to guess who was the most likely murderer based on what Wang Tao provided, Wang Tao suddenly thought of an important question -

If people with weak abilities, even the highest administrators, can still be plotted so easily...can we still put people with strong abilities but weak abilities in important positions in the future?

Perhaps to put it more bluntly, are ordinary people and weak superpowers still qualified to hold important positions?

Judging from the current situation... anyone with the strength of a fourth-level awakener or below can be said to be weak!

"The impact of this incident may be much greater than I imagined! It may lead to some changes in the future..."
