Chapter 472 I Did Not Kill Anyone
Upon arriving at Weiyang Palace, we went upstairs.
Xi Xian was waiting at the elevator entrance.
She glanced at Zhuang Yanzheng and Shen Yanzhou, then followed Su Miaoyi.
"Are you sure no one is upstairs?" Su Miaoyi asked her.
"No," Xi Xian said with certainty.
Su Miaoyi looked at Zhuang Yanzheng.
Zhuang Yanzheng said, "I'll wait at the entrance of Yan Zhou's residence. You can go upstairs."
There was a corpse at Shen Yanzhou's residence, and Xi Xian judged from the smell that it had been there for more than forty-eight hours.
They can't do anything when they don't know.
But now that we know this, we must have corresponding measures.
To prevent anyone from coming and disrupting the scene, one person needs to stay behind.
Su Miaoyi, Shen Yanzhou, and Xi Xian went upstairs.
Su Miaoyi and Xi Xian did not approach, so Shen Yanzhou went to knock on Jiang Xutong's door.
No one answered the door.
Shen Yanzhou knocked again, but still no one answered the door.
He waited a while, then called Jiang Xutong directly.
"Didn't you say you were at Weiyang Palace? Open the door," Shen Yanzhou said.
Jiang Xutong laughed: "Shen Yanzhou, this is the consequence of your targeting of my family back then. I hope we never see each other again."
She hung up the phone after she finished speaking.
When Shen Yanzhou tried to call back, he was blocked.
He called from a different number, but the call was hung up on and he was then blocked.
Shen Yanzhou walked to Su Miaoyi's side: "She said she hopes we will never see each other again."
Su Miaoyi looked at him, her expression already starting to go numb.
Shen Yanzhou put his phone in his pocket: "She deliberately sent me here."
Su Miaoyi was still looking at him.
Shen Yanzhou smiled and said, "It's nothing. This isn't the first time I've been to an interrogation room, nor is it the first time a body has been found in my residence."
Su Miaoyi closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "Let's go downstairs first."
The three of them went downstairs.
Zheng Qi and his men have also arrived.
The fingerprints on Shen Yanzhou's door have all been collected.
"Nobody here?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked.
Shen Yanzhou nodded.
Zhuang Yanzheng also realized what was happening.
Jiang Xutong wasn't there, but she sent Shen Yanzhou over instead.
There was a corpse in Shen Yanzhou's residence.
How could there suddenly be a corpse in my residence?
There is a high possibility that they framed him.
"I won't be seeing you in the interrogation room later, will I?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked, looking at him.
“If I really get to the interrogation room, you won’t see me,” Shen Yanzhou said.
They all had to avoid it.
Shen Yanzhou looked at the door: "Have you collected all the data? I unlocked it with my fingerprint?"
"Ah."
Shen Yanzhou unlocked the door with his fingerprint, and as soon as he opened it, he smelled the odor.
The doors and windows were tightly closed, and the indoor temperature was high.
Shen Yanzhou quickly held his breath and took several steps back.
They retreated all the way to the elevator.
Xi Xian looked at him with obvious disgust.
Shen Yanzhou suddenly felt that his clothes also smelled. A few seconds later, he took off his coat, threw it on the ground, and decided he didn't want it anymore. He would go downstairs and throw it in the trash can later.
Xi Xian looked at him: "Aren't you going to take your pants off?"
Shen Yanzhou frowned: "??????"
Xi Xian remained calm and composed: "I know what you're thinking. You feel like there's a smell on your clothes, but if your coat smells, your pants will too."
Shen Yanzhou frowned even more deeply because he felt uneasy; he thought his pants were dirty and unwearable.
Xi Xian was still looking at him. Shen Yanzhou took out his phone and transferred a large sum of money to his assistant. Immediately afterward, the assistant called: "Mr. Shen, what is this money for?"
"Overtime pay," Shen Yanzhou said. "I'm at Weiyang Palace. Buy me a coat and a pair of pants and bring them over. I'll reimburse you for the cost."
"Okay, right away." The assistant accepted the money readily, completely unconcerned about working overtime during the Chinese New Year holiday.
“Actually, I can buy it for you,” Xi Xian said.
Shen Yanzhou looked at her and said, "I'm the suspect, you're the one who reported the crime, and you're also my neighbor. Neither of us is leaving here until we're questioned."
Xi Xian remained silent.
Shen Yanzhou looked at his pants, thought about the smell from earlier, and didn't want to say a word.
At his residence.
In the living room, the body was lying face down, with a large pool of blood beneath it, which had already dried.
The bleeding is occurring in the neck.
The body was wearing a gray tracksuit.
They took photos of the body first, and then examined it.
Su Miaoyi found a fruit knife under the sofa.
It's the fruit knife from Shen Yanzhou's place.
His knives are all a set. Shen Yanzhou is not only a clean freak but also a bit of an obsessive-compulsive. Even though he doesn't use many things, he likes to buy a set because he thinks it looks neat and tidy.
She examined the knife and found fingerprints of four fingers on the handle, as well as blood on the blade.
Based on the location of the fingerprints, she determined the way the killer held the knife.
“Hold the knife with your hand behind your back.” Su Miaoyi gestured, then looked at the wound on the deceased’s neck. It did indeed look like it was made by holding the knife with your hand behind your back.
She put the fruit knife in the evidence bag and looked around again.
She found a hair, looked at it, and thought it must be hers.
She looked at the body again and touched all the pockets on it.
Nothing at all.
There were no other injuries; the fatal wound was likely the one on his neck.
“There are no signs of forced entry on the door,” Zheng Qi said. “Neither inside nor outside, and there are no signs of damage to the doors or windows. Either this person is very familiar with this place and knows the password, or the owner of this place opened the door on their own initiative.”
Su Miaoyi did not speak.
Zheng Qi said, "The building is quite tall, so the person couldn't have climbed up from outside the window. There were no signs of climbing outside either."
“There were no signs of a struggle,” Su Miaoyi said. “Nothing here has been disturbed. One hit, one kill.”
"It was someone we knew." Zheng Qi looked at Su Miaoyi. "We need to confirm the victim's identity."
Su Miaoyi nodded and then took two new masks.
Shen Yanzhou was called over.
Su Miaoyi handed him the mask at the door.
Shen Yanzhou put on two masks before entering the room.
"Do you recognize him?" Zhuang Yanzheng said.
Shen Yanzhou held his breath, approached, and squatted down to examine the deceased.
Because the deceased was lying face down, only half of his face could be seen.
However, Shen Yanzhou still recognized him.
"know."
Su Miaoyi and Zhuang Yanzheng exchanged another glance subconsciously.
"who is it?"
“Jiang Nankun,” Shen Yanzhou said.
Su Miaoyi was surprised: "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure." Shen Yanzhou stood up and took a few steps back. "It's him."
Suddenly, everyone fell silent.
It feels like everything is tangled up like several threads, and I can't sort anything out for the time being.
"Didn't you see anything either?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked.
Su Miaoyi shook her head.
Yan Cheng arrived with his assistant.
He went to examine the body.
They moved to the side.
“I didn’t kill anyone,” Shen Yanzhou said. “I’ve been staying at my parents’ villa all this time and haven’t been here. The surveillance footage can prove it. I suspect that Jiang Xutong killed Jiang Nankun. When I was abroad, Jiang Xutong and Jiang Nankun had a very good relationship. Based on my current suspicions, something must have happened between them.”
