I make a living solving crimes.

Although Captain Qiu was very cooperative, he might not be convinced by the so-called Dragon Group in his heart.

Age is both an asset and a weakness.

Everyone envies young people, and everyone looks down on them.

It was not until Chang Wei asked the reason for the electric shock that he understood why these teenagers were trusted by the ministries.

In this era, only professional electricians know whether you will get an electric shock if you wear shoes.

Don't argue, these things are not taught in junior high schools these days. What's more, under the two-part education system, most children can only learn literacy in school.

Captain Qiu didn’t understand it before, and only found out after asking the electrician.

Generally speaking, when you put on shoes and touch the live wire, you will feel a tingling or heavy hitting sensation.

In severe cases, the person may be sucked in and electrocuted to death.

Han Shaozhen was electrocuted and flew away, so naturally he wouldn't be sucked in.

"It rained a little here yesterday morning, and the shoes of the deceased Han Shaozhen were soaked with water."

Chang Wei understood that this was a circuit formed, and the current killed her the moment it passed through. Or rather, she did not die immediately, but due to lack of rescue, she eventually died of heart failure or respiratory failure.

"The person who set this trap is an electrician, or knows a lot about circuits, and he even knows how to use the weather."

Captain Qiu nodded, he thought so too.

"How did you find the deceased woman?"

"After Wei Huandi died, we wanted to notify the family, so we called Han Shaozhen's workplace, Baolong Auto Repair Shop. Their General Affairs Section Chief Peng Zhengming went to the house to notify them, but the door was locked. We waited until six o'clock but Han Shaozhen didn't come back. Later, a neighbor said she saw Han Shaozhen go into the yard to buy groceries at three o'clock in the afternoon."

There was no property law in that era, and with the security guards present, everyone decided to break into the house.

"So, the murderer had actually been hiding in their home. After confirming Han Shaozhen's death, he left in a swagger and even locked the door?"

"Yes."

"Did you find anything during your on-site investigation?"

"When we received the report and arrived at the scene, the ground was full of footprints."

Chang Wei understood what he meant—no clues.

After going through all the information, Chang Wei looked at the time and asked, "Can we see the body now?"

"No problem. The body is at the funeral home now and has not been cremated yet."

Chang Wei stood up, thought for a moment and made arrangements: "Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, you go to the two crime scenes now and protect the scene environment. I will go to investigate later. Jiang Hongxia stay in the office. I will call you if I have anything. Sister Tuan'er, go to the Investigation Bureau to see if there is any information."

After arranging the four of them, Chang Wei thought for a moment, looked at Du Ye and said, "Don't go to the funeral home. Let Ji Xiaowang accompany you and go out for a stroll."

Seeing such an outrageous arrangement, the people from the Dragon Group nodded as a matter of course and agreed: "Yes, Du Ye, you go out for a walk."

Du Ye looked confused and timidly looked at Chang Wei, "Team Leader, where should I go?"

"Whatever, go wherever you want to go?" Chang Wei said casually, and then looked at Ji Xiaowang seriously, "Don't give him any advice, just accompany him, he can go wherever he wants to go."

"Yes." Ji Xiaowang agreed with a smile.

Du Ye pursed his lips and didn't dare to refute.

Captain Qiu was confused.

Could this Du Ye be the son of some big boss who came here to gild his reputation?

Everyone else is working, but he's the only one out playing?

Do I need someone to accompany me? Do I need him to do whatever he wants without anyone interfering?

At least he has to be the son of a minister or deputy minister, right?

Chang Wei didn't explain much to Captain Qiu and took Li Laifu and Wu Jimao out.

After receiving the notice, the forensic doctor was waiting in the funeral home early.

Forensic pathologist Gu Zuzhen was a retained staff member and was already in his sixties at this time.

He studied medicine in France in his early years, but after returning to China, he joined the French Concession Police Department as a forensic doctor. After that, he continued to work as a forensic doctor in the Japanese puppet and Kuomintang police stations, and accumulated a lot of experience in examining corpses.

Chang Wei came here to confirm the exact time of death of the two people.

The couple died on the day they were released from prison. If we put aside Wei Huandi's former identity as a spy and consider the case from a criminal perspective, Chang Wei must first rule out the possibility that Wei Huandi killed his wife.

Statistics from later generations showed that in homicide cases, more than 50% of murders were caused by adultery, marriage, or intensified conflicts in love, so much so that there is a saying among the people that nine out of ten murders are caused by adultery.

Among these, murders due to the deterioration of marital relations account for about half of the adultery murders.

Wei Huandi has been in prison for nearly ten years. Did Han Shaozhen cheat on him during this period?

Chang Wei has the skills to determine the time of death. Observing rigor mortis, livor mortis, and body temperature are all conventional methods. For a more sophisticated approach, one must also consider the temperature of the environment, the body's physique, the degree of exercise, whether alcohol was consumed, and whether anesthetics were used.

He didn't want to know too much detail, he just wanted to know the order in which the two people died.

The simplest and most effective way is to look at the stomach contents and digestion status.

Chang Wei would never want to do something like opening the abdominal cavity himself, even if he was beaten to death.

This is even more disgusting than the original flavor of Nine-Turn Large Intestine.

That's the bad thing about a dog's nose...

Finally, Li Laifu and Wu Jimao assisted Gu Zuzhen. They had both cooked people in the Dongcheng Branch, so this was child's play compared to the meaty human bone soup.

After comparison, Gu Zuzhen determined that Wei Huandi died one hour earlier than Han Shaozhen.

After leaving the autopsy room, Li Laifu took off his mask, took two deep breaths, and humbly asked, "Doctor Gu, Han Shaozhen died of electrocution. From a forensic point of view, what are the characteristics of her body?"

"Cardiac arrest."

Li Laifu stopped recording and looked up in disbelief, "Same as Wei Huandi?"

Gu Zuzhen also reacted and nodded, "From the autopsy, the characteristics are the same."

Li Laifu closed the notebook in his hand, looked at Chang Wei and said, "Should we go to the bathroom next?"

"Yes, I have always suspected the cause of Wei Huandi's death. Now we must first find out whether it was an accident or murder."

Not far from Wei Huandi’s home is Xiaoyao Pond.

This is a restaurant opened by a boss from Yangzhou who is very good at business. He planned to cater to all three levels of customers, from high, medium and low. He made a great start from the beginning and built an independent courtyard, which was divided into three small courtyards with flower walls, corresponding to the three levels respectively.

As a released prisoner, it is reasonable for Wei Huandi to take a bath to get rid of bad luck.

Li Laifu asked the owner of the bathhouse, who said that as soon as Xiaoyao Pool opened at noon yesterday, a boy about fourteen or fifteen years old ran over, handed over some money and said that he wanted to reserve a men's bathroom in the high-end bathing area, specifically number 21, and that he would come to take a bath at around two in the afternoon.

Chang Wei frowned, didn't ask any more questions, and walked towards the high-end bathing place in the east.

The high-end area is composed entirely of single bathrooms. There is a small changing and resting room at the entrance, which is equipped with a spring recliner with adjustable sitting position, a leather footstool, a coffee table, tea sets, and a telephone. There is an electric bell in the corner of the coffee table. If the bather has any needs, he only needs to press the bell and the lobby service desk will assign someone to serve him.

The inner room is the bathroom, which is equipped with a white enameled cast iron bathtub imported from the UK, a shower, a basin, a mirror, etc.

Chang Wei raised his eyebrows, and Li Laifu understood. He opened the notebook and asked, "These are all private bathrooms. How did you find out that Wei Huandi was dead?"

Seeing that Captain Qiu of the Municipal Bureau's Criminal Investigation Team had stepped aside, the boss became more respectful to the people in front of him who spoke with Beijing accents, and pulled a waiter to say, "He discovered it when he came to deliver hot water."

The guy's name was Lao Ding, and he explained the whole thing in a trembling manner.

There was a red light above the bathroom door frame. If it wasn't on, it meant it wasn't "Do Not Disturb." He knocked on the door gently, but got no response, so he pushed the door open and walked in.

This kind of service attitude was impossible before liberation, but now it is a new society, the working people have long since risen up, and naturally they are no longer afraid of these down-and-out rich people.

Chang Wei walked inside while listening, turned around the bathroom, and finally pointed at the ceiling, "Notify the bathroom to turn off the power, find a ladder and open it up."
