Serious Case Tracking

Chapter 22 Revenge
"Brother Ma, I've figured it out. The chances of Shen Lang waking up are extremely slim. He probably wasn't the one who sent the threatening package." After Sun Mei left the hospital, she called Ma Yongquan and reported the situation of the hospital to him, " However, I also learned that in the past year, an old man named Yang Haisheng has been donating a sum of medical expenses to the hospital every month through the Red Cross, and he named it for Shen Lang's medical expenses."

"Yang Haisheng? What's his relationship with Shen Lang?" Ma Yongquan asked doubtfully on the phone.

"I don't know. I only know that this person lives in a charity nursing home. I'm planning to go and have a look."

"Well, it's better to understand clearly. I don't want to have any mistakes in the past." Ma Yongquan replied.

Charity Nursing Home is considered to be a nursing home with very good conditions and facilities in the city. The tree-lined garden landscape, high-quality accommodation conditions, and careful and responsible nursing staff make the elderly feel the warmth of family here.Of course, no matter how good the conditions are, they can’t compare with their own home. I believe that if there are no special reasons, the elderly here still hope to spend more time with their families and share the family relationship.

When Sun Mei came to the nursing home, it was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Since it was summer and the outdoor temperature was too high, the old people gathered in the entertainment room after their lunch break. Some played cards, some played billiards, and some played chess. Each has its own fun.

Under the guidance of the nurse, Sun Mei soon saw the old man Yang Haisheng. He was about [-] years old, and he was sitting in a wheelchair, reading the newspaper quietly by himself. hearing aids.

"Uncle Yang, someone has come to see you." The nurse leaned close to Yang Haisheng's ear and said softly.

"You are?" Yang Haisheng raised his head and stared at Sun Mei with a puzzled expression.

"My surname is Zhang, and I'm Shen Lang's friend. I heard that you have been donating money to treat his illness, so I came to see you and thank you for him." Sun Mei made up something random.

"Oh! That's right!" Yang Haisheng nodded with a smile.

"Let's talk! I'll get you a glass of water." The nurse said.

"Old man, do you know Shen Lang?" Sun Mei asked.

"Well, I know his parents. Alas, this child is so pitiful! His brother broke the law and ran away, leaving him alone in the hospital." Yang Haisheng sighed.

"Oh! That's right! Do you know his brother?"

"His brother? You mean Shen Hao? Of course, I used to think that this kid was quite obedient. How could he do such a thing? It was all caused by money!" Yang Haisheng shook his head, "So, People have been tied to death by money all their lives. To be honest, what is the use of having so much money? Live for one day, count as one day! If one day you close your eyes, you will lose everything, let alone money."

"Uncle Yang, you are talking nonsense again. You are still healthy, and you can live for another few decades." The nurse handed the water glass to Sun Mei, and then said slightly accusingly.

"Hehe! I'm already at this age, what's the point of living for another few decades! I'm not an old turtle. I can see it through! This man! He has to trust his fate. When the time comes, don't you think? It’s even hard to walk! Do you think I’m right, Miss Zhang?” Yang Haisheng laughed.

"Well, yes, yes, old man Yang, you eat more salt than us young people, and you see life more thoroughly than us young people." Sun Mei nodded, she originally wanted to know something, but Unexpectedly, Yang Haisheng diverted the topic to other places, and she was not easy to get angry, so she could only agree with her.

"Hehe, it's not so much to see thoroughly, but to have more experience." Yang Haisheng said modestly.

"By the way, old man, do you know who else is in Shen Lang's family? I just came back from abroad and only found out about him. I don't know if there is anything I can do to help his family." Sun Mei took the opportunity Changing the topic, she thought to herself: This old guy is really good at talking, and if we continue to chat with him, I guess the Jade Emperor will be able to move out.

"No! This child is really pitiful!" Yang Haisheng shook his head.

"That's it! Old man, here is 1000 yuan. You take it and buy something you like. Thank you very much for your help to Shen Lang. I still have something to do. I will come to see you next time when I have time." Sun Mei took out the 1000 yuan was handed over to Yang Haisheng.

"No, no, no, I don't want money, and I'm not short of money, so take it back quickly." Yang Haisheng hurriedly refused.

"Just take it, take it as a little favor from me." After Sun Mei finished speaking, she took a sip of water and turned to leave.

"Money, is it a good thing or a bad thing?" Yang Haisheng looked at Sun Mei's leaving back and said with emotion.

"Brother Ma, I understand everything clearly. There should be nothing suspicious. Then Yang Haisheng is a bad old man with bad legs and feet. He just knows Shen Hao's parents. That's why he donated some medical expenses to Shen Lang." Sun Mei Once again, report to Ma Yongquan what he has learned.

"Well, that's fine, you come back first! Let's discuss the long-term plan." Ma Yongquan said.

However, Ma Yongquan and others waited until 6 o'clock in the evening before Sun Mei returned to the company, and they called Sun Mei's phone, and the phone was still turned off.

"Brother Ma, haven't you been able to contact Meizi yet?" Zhao Bowen asked anxiously.

"It's so strange. It is reasonable to say that it took at most an hour to come back from the charity nursing home, but what time is it now, and the phone can't be reached, what the hell is she doing!" Ma Yongquan tapped his fingers on the table irritably.

"Meizi has never been so unrepentant, so there shouldn't be any accidents?" Qian Shaowei said.

"Shut your crow's mouth, what can happen?" Zhao Bowen scolded.

"Ever since I received that threatening postal package, my heart has always been in a state of ups and downs, and I always feel that something is going to happen." Qian Shaowei said anxiously.

"Okay, what's the matter? We haven't encountered such a big storm, what can a broken threatening postal package do to us? Look at the virtue that scares you." Ma Yongquan reprimanded dissatisfied.

While the three were anxiously waiting for news from Sun Mei, they received a call from the traffic police brigade, which brought them a very unexpected and shocking news. Sun Mei had a car accident on the viaduct and died on the spot.

At 8:[-] p.m., in the office of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Brigade, Meng Shaohui was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed and rested, bored. On the desk in front of him was the closed report of a robbery and homicide case he had just finished.

"Captain Meng, there is a case." The investigator woke Meng Shaohui up.

"Isn't it! Again? You have to catch your breath even if you hang yourself! When will these criminals calm down!" Meng Shaohui opened his sleepy eyes and frowned, "What case is this time?"

"At about 4 p.m., a car accident occurred. A Mercedes-Benz sports car hit four small cars in a row on the viaduct, and finally crashed directly into the bottom of a large truck. The driver died on the spot."

"This is a traffic accident, shouldn't it be handled by the traffic police department?" Meng Shaohui asked doubtfully.

"It was originally like this, but after an autopsy, a substance called lysergic acid diethylamide, or LSD for short, was found in the body of the deceased. According to the forensic doctor, this is a derivative of lysergic acid, a natural ergot alkaloid It can be regarded as a representative of hallucinogens." The investigator explained.

"That is to say, the deceased took this hallucinogenic drug, so he died in a car accident?"

"Yes, the forensic doctor also pointed out in the report that the deceased ingested this hallucinogen orally, and the intake was about 0.6 mg. After the human body ingests this hallucinogen, the general onset time is 30 to 40 mg. About [-] minutes."

"That is to say, the deceased took the hallucinogen 30 to 40 minutes before the car accident. Is it possible that she took it herself?"

"The forensic doctor said that this hallucinogen was popular in the United States in the 60s. At present, it is generally made into colorless and odorless powder, tablet, capsule or solution. In addition to oral administration, some people also mix it with tobacco for smoking, or It is through intravenous and subcutaneous injections, but few people use it in China. If this hallucinogen is taken in excess, it is very easy to cause the user to have "flashback symptoms" of indefinite duration, and this symptom will cause Changes in mood and even suicide. In addition, through the autopsy, it was proved that the deceased did not take drugs. In addition, the forensic doctor tested the mineral water in the car of the deceased, and found no lysergic acid diethylamide in it, but in the stomach of the deceased No tablets or capsule residues were found, so the forensic doctor judged that the deceased drank water containing this hallucinogen somewhere, and then had hallucinations while driving, causing the car accident."

"What about the identity of the deceased?"

"Sun Mei, female, 38 years old, one of the directors of Shixiang Group."

"Have you found out where she went before the incident?"

"Not found yet."

"Well, has her family been notified?"

"She is single and an orphan, so she has no family members. We have already notified the other three directors of Shixiang Group to identify the body."

"Well, take them to the conference room after identifying the corpse, and find out all of Sun Mei's information as soon as possible." Meng Shaohui got up and stretched, "Oh! I still want to have time to take a breath and rest. In a few days, it seems that the plan has been ruined again."

In the conference room of the police station, the atmosphere seemed a little heavy. Ma Yongquan, Zhao Bowen and Qian Shaowei were brought here by the investigators after identifying the corpses, but since they sat down, there was no conversation with each other. His face was dark, his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

"Do you think it was an accident?" Qian Shaowei broke the silence first.

"Who knows!" Zhao Bowen shook his head.

"Shut up both of you." Ma Yongquan glared at the two of them, "You don't even look at the place, where is this? This is the police station! If you have anything to say, save it for later. The police will arrive later. Be careful, you should know what to say and what not to say." Although Ma Yongquan's words were sharp, his voice was not loud, for he was afraid that someone outside the conference room would overhear.

"Sorry to keep you guys waiting for a long time." Meng Shaohui walked into the meeting room and said politely.

"You are?" Ma Yongquan looked at Meng Shaohui.

"Meng Shaohui, Captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade."

"Captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade? Didn't Sun Mei die in a traffic accident? What does it have to do with the Criminal Investigation Brigade?" Ma Yongquan asked puzzled.

"That's right. According to the forensic autopsy report, Sun Mei had taken a drug called lysergic acid diethylamide before her death, and this was the most direct cause of her traffic accident." Meng Shaohui said briefly.

"Lysergic acid diethylamide? What is this?" Qian Shaowei asked suspiciously.

"Simply put, it's a hallucinogen, a drug similar to marijuana."

"It's impossible, Sun Mei has never taken drugs." Zhao Bowen retorted.

"That's why our police suspect that she didn't die by accident, but a homicide. It is very likely that she took this hallucinogen without knowing it, which caused the car accident. That's why we invited a few people to assist our police in the investigation." Meng Shaohui said, "I also know that you are busy people. In order not to waste your time, I just asked a few questions. Do you know where Sun Mei went before 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon?"

"I don't know." Ma Yongquan blurted out without thinking.

"Can you think clearly?" Meng Shaohui was clearly dissatisfied with Ma Yongquan's quick answer, and he frowned slightly.

"I really don't know. Sun Mei is a director of the company, not an employee, so she doesn't need to tell us where she goes, and we never ask." Ma Yongquan explained.

"But it should be working time at that time! Don't you ask Sun Mei to leave the company?" Meng Shaohui continued to ask.

"Captain Meng, I just said that Sun Mei is a director of the company, not an employee, so there is no need to stay in the company like an employee. As for the reason why she left the company during working hours, she did not explain to us. "Ma Yongquan emphasized again.

"Then do you two know?" Meng Shaohui asked Zhao Bowen and Qian Shaowei.

Now that Ma Yongquan had already given the answer, Zhao Bowen and Qian Shaowei naturally understood that Ma Yongquan just didn't want the police to know where Sun Mei was going at that time, so they all shook their heads tacitly.

"Then did Sun Mei have any conflicts with anyone? Or did she have an enmity, so that someone wanted to harm her?" Seeing that Sun Mei's whereabouts could not be found, Meng Shaohui could only continue to ask the second question.

"No, we are all honest and responsible businessmen. How could we become enemies with others? Wouldn't it be impossible to continue the business? We do business with peace as the most important thing." Ma Yongquan replied without thinking.

Meng Shaohui didn't continue to ask more questions, but turned his attention to the other two people, and they all nodded one after another, affirming Ma Yongquan's answer.

"And what about in private?"

"That's not clear. I never ask her about her personal affairs. We are partners in business affairs, but we each have our own lives in private."

After Ma Yongquan answered this time, Meng Shaohui did not continue to confirm with Zhao Bowen and Qian Shaowei, because he knew that the answer he got must be the same as what Ma Yongquan said.

"The last question, where were the three of you before Sun Mei's car accident this afternoon? Is there anyone who can prove it?" Meng Shaohui asked.

"What do you mean by that? Do you suspect that we killed Meizi?" Zhao Bowen scolded excitedly.

"During the investigation stage, the police have the right to suspect anyone. I'm just asking in accordance with the rules. Of course, you can choose to remain silent, and our police can conduct investigations by ourselves." Meng Shaohui said calmly.

"The three of us were all in the company at the time, and all the employees of the company can testify for us." Ma Yongquan said calmly, "Sun Mei and our relationship are like biological brothers and sisters. We have no reason to kill him at all. You can do whatever you want on this point." investigation."

"Okay then! If you still have any new ideas, please contact me at any time." Although Meng Shaohui knew that this was an unlikely event, he always had to say this in formality.
