Chapter 47 Suicide by Falling from a Building
Another half month passed.

At three in the morning, Su Miaoyi finished writing the novel she was writing.

After checking for typos, the application is complete.

Su Miaoyi strolled to the bedside with her phone in hand, then flopped down and fell asleep.

As dawn approached, she felt a little cold, so she wrapped the blanket around herself and went back to sleep.

I slept until almost noon when I was woken up by a phone call.

She reached for her phone, opened one eye, and glanced at the caller ID.

Upon seeing that it was Zhuang Yanzheng, she reflexively stood up abruptly and walked towards the wardrobe, answering the phone as she went: "Team Leader Zhuang."

"Just woke up?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked, hearing her voice.

"It's okay, go ahead." Su Miaoyi found some clothes and changed them while still on the phone.

The process was so rapid that she herself didn't even realize it.

“A case has been transferred to the Municipal Bureau. I happen to be passing by Xinyuan, so I’ll pick you up,” Zhuang Yanzheng said.

"Okay." Su Miaoyi changed her clothes.

Zhuang Yanzheng said, "No rush, there are still ten minutes."

"Ah."

Su Miaoyi quickly washed up, grabbed two pieces of candy, and went out.

She was worried that not eating would cause low blood sugar and make things worse.

After waiting for a while at the entrance of the residential area, I got into Zhuang Yanzheng's car.

Qi Feng and Chu Xingrou were both sitting in the back.

Su Miaoyi sat in the passenger seat, her seatbelt fastened.

Zhuang Yanzheng tossed her a scallion pancake: "Eat while you listen to me."

"Mmm." Su Miaoyi opened it and took a bite.

Zhuang Yanzheng said, "The deceased was Xia Yan, a 27-year-old female star."

Upon hearing these words, Su Miaoyi was suddenly taken aback: "Who?! Xia Yan?!"

Zhuang Yanzheng turned his head and glanced at her: "Do you know her?"

Su Miaoyi looked up and saw the large screen on the building next door. Pointing at the person on the screen, she said, "This Xia Yan?"

Zhuang Yanzheng also glanced at it: "It's her."

Su Miaoyi steadied herself: "When did this happen?"

"Last night," Zhuang Yanzheng said, then changed his words, "early this morning, he fell to his death at Club No. 7."

"Suicide?" Su Miaoyi thought of suicide as soon as she heard about falling from the building.

"The initial assessment is suicide; a suicide note was found on her computer. Her friend said she had been in a bad mood recently, but the specifics are still uncertain," Zhuang Yanzheng said. "They called the police last night; the local branch office answered the call."

"Why was it transferred to the Municipal Bureau?" Su Miaoyi asked.

"Someone was doing a live stream this morning and let it slip, revealing the news," Zhuang Yanzheng said. "The public pressure was too great, so it was transferred to the Municipal Bureau."

Su Miaoyi opened her phone and took a look.

She's been sleeping and still doesn't know what's going on online.

This is all over the trending topics right now.

The trending topic initially sparked disbelief, then the studio issued an announcement, and now it evokes regret.

The fans were heartbroken and couldn't accept it.

Xia Yan has a fairly large fan base.

Aside from various conspiracy theories speculating about the cause of death, people are speaking out for Xia Yan and demanding justice.

The popularity has been steadily increasing.

"The body wasn't transported to the Municipal Public Security Bureau; Yan Cheng went directly to the autopsy center at the funeral home," Zhuang Yanzheng said. "Let's go to the scene first, and then we'll go find Yan Cheng."

"it is good."

Club No. 7 is a private club.

There are five floors in total.

According to people who were present last night, Xia Yan jumped from the fifth floor.

The main entrance of Club No. 7 was covered with flowers, all sent by fans.

They went in through the back door.

I first went to the fifth floor to survey the area.

There was a private party here last night, and a lot of people came.

A lot of fingerprints, footprints, and hair were collected.

Long ones, short ones, red ones, green ones.

Su Miaoyi and Zhuang Yanzheng stood by the window, looking at the fingerprints that appeared after applying the powder. There were also footprints on the windowsill.

Su Miaoyi, wearing shoe covers, lifted her leg to step onto the windowsill and tried.

Can't get up.

The windowsill is very high.

Zhuang Yanzheng looked around again, but there were no chairs or stools.

"Has anyone tampered with the scene?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked the person in charge.

"It's hard to say. Last night, when everyone found out someone had jumped from the building, they were all in a panic and looked down from this window first. There were so many people, it's hard to say where the person would end up."

Su Miaoyi looked around.

Even if you bump into it or kick it, there should be something like a bench nearby.

But there's nothing here.

Su Miaoyi moved a stool and climbed onto the windowsill.

The window was large enough that she could easily stand upright.

According to Xia Yan's profile, she is shorter than her.

Zhuang Yanzheng grabbed her calf, worried that she would fall out of the window.

Su Miaoyi glanced down at him, then reached out and compared the fingerprints on the window frame.

Zhuang Yanzheng looked up and already knew what to do: "Get down."

Su Miaoyi looked through the window at the security cameras outside. There was one in the yard that should be able to capture this window. She jumped down immediately: "I see there are a lot of security cameras outside, that one should be able to capture this window, right?"

The club manager suddenly started stammering.

Zhuang Yanzheng said, "The surveillance cameras were turned off after midnight yesterday."

"Huh?" Su Miaoyi didn't understand.

The person in charge said, "We're all here to have fun. We're all respectable people. Once we've finished discussing business, we'll have some fun. It's not convenient to film our private lives."

Su Miaoyi realized what was happening, and the disdain on her face was not hidden at all.

Do people with status and influence abandon everything when they play games?

Su Miaoyi did not speak.

Zhuang Yanzheng asked, "Who attended the gathering yesterday?"

The person in charge went to get the list.

Zhuang Yanzheng recognized most of them at a glance.

There was also an acquaintance.

Shen Yanzhou.

Upon seeing the name, Zhuang Yanzheng and Su Miaoyi exchanged a glance.

"Was Shen Yanzhou there yesterday too?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked.

"Young Master Shen left around 10 o'clock yesterday," the steward said. "He didn't attend the subsequent gathering."

Zhuang Yanzheng didn't say anything more.

After they finished looking up, they went downstairs.

Su Miaoyi: "Shouldn't we ask everyone on that list?"

Zhuang Yanzheng nodded.

Arrived downstairs.

There was a large amount of splattered blood on the ground. The location had been marked after the body was removed.

Su Miaoyi looked at the location where the body had fallen and the distance between it and the wall.

Zhuang Yanzheng said, "It's a bit close."

Su Miaoyi nodded and whispered, "Generally, when a person commits suicide jumps, there is an outward force. After falling, it feels like the distance is farther than this. Of course, it needs to be calculated precisely; what you see with the naked eye is just a guess."

Zhuang Yanzheng looked at her.

Su Miaoyi looked around again but found nothing else.

"With so many surveillance cameras in this club, are all of them turned off?" Su Miaoyi asked.

“Hmm,” Zhuang Yanzheng said, “These are all controlled together; turning one off will shut them all down. The only thing we can count on is the surveillance cameras outside the club. But whether they can capture anything useful is another matter.”
