The problem is big!

Li Xiangnan seriously suspected that someone was conveying certain messages to Xu Sheng through this book.

The sentences in the message are the words with pencil lines drawn on them.

Although Li Xiangnan couldn't immediately piece together the connection between these words, he was very perceptive and would not miss such information.

"Master Shi, you just need to tell me which supervisor helped Xu Sheng borrow this book."

Li Xiangnan spoke calmly, without revealing any doubt.

Warden Shi stared at him blankly for two seconds, then finally nodded and beckoned over the prison guard sitting nearby. "Xiao Chai, which prison guard helped borrow the book from Xu Sheng's room?"

"Book?" Xiao Chai was stunned and scratched his head. "Maybe it's District Chief Cheng? I don't know!"

"Where are the others?" Warden Shi frowned.

Xiao Chai replied, "District Chief Cheng is on a rotation day today. His shift changes at 7am, so he should be home!"

"Go call him and tell him that something happened in the prison and ask him to come quickly!" Warden Shi's tone became cold and he immediately waved his hand.

Seeing Xiao Chai hurried away, he turned around and smiled awkwardly at Li Xiangnan, "Advisor Li, I'm sorry, I'm afraid you'll have to wait a moment. He's on a different shift!"

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry!" Li Xiangnan tucked the book under his arm, turned back to the cell door, and handed it to the police officer Xiao Zeng who was guarding there, reminding him, "Hold it for me, don't give it to anyone else!"

"Yes!" Public security officer Xiao Zeng shuddered and suddenly felt something heavy in his hands.

Deputy Warden Shi hurried over, perhaps having guessed something. When he reached the door, Xiao Zeng reached out to stop him. He then tiptoed to Li Xiangnan inside, "Advisor Li, what's wrong? Did you discover something? Have you made a decision on Xu Sheng's case?"

Li Xiangnan turned his head to look at the forensic doctor Wang and Guo Qian who were still busy at work, and reminded them, "Old Captain Wang and Guo, be more careful and don't miss any details."

After saying this, he immediately turned around and saw the look of surprise on Warden Shi's face. He took the opportunity to say, "Warden Shi, we're all family. I won't hide it from you. Xu Sheng's case doesn't look like suicide!"

"It doesn't look like... suicide?" Warden Shi was stunned. Then he immediately stretched his head forward, his eyes suddenly widened, and he subconsciously glanced at the corpse on the bed, his face pale.

"Yes." Li Xiangnan nodded. "Based on many suspicious points, it's too early to conclude that Xu Sheng committed suicide. So I hope the prison will cooperate with our investigation and restore the truth as much as possible!"

Warden Shi's face turned pale. He had never expected that Li Xiangnan would turn the case around so quickly. There was shock and confusion in his eyes. He even took a few steps back and stopped when he bumped into the wall of the opposite corridor. He raised his head to look at the number plate of Xu Sheng's cell, glanced left and right at the corridor, and then quickly stepped forward to stand at the cell door and looked inside.

The more he looked, the more uncomfortable he felt. Finally, he exclaimed, "How could it be... Are you saying someone killed Xu Sheng here?"

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, he shivered suddenly like a cat whose tail was scalded, and his face turned extremely bad.

He took out a cigarette from his pocket tremblingly, and tried to light it with a match several times before he succeeded. He folded his arms and slowly squatted down against the wall of the corridor, his face turning from pale to solemn.

Now the case has escalated from Xu Sheng's personal problem to a prison issue, which is what he least wants to see.

After the incident happened in the morning, he immediately called the warden to report and kept emphasizing that Xu Sheng committed suicide and asked his old leader not to worry.

This is fine.

Maybe he will really lose his job!

"Discovered... discovered what?" After taking a few sharp puffs of his cigarette, Shi Yang stood up, and then suddenly realized: "Is it the problem with the book?"

Li Xiangnan had been standing in the prison watching him. His gaze fell on his face like a knife, and he said calmly, "I've discovered many suspicious points. Due to disciplinary issues, I can't tell you, but I can be sure that this is not suicide, but a carefully planned murder, most likely intended to completely silence Xu Sheng! And I think the murderer is most likely in this prison!"

His words were like a cannonball into a calm lake.

Shi Yang's face, which had finally adjusted his mentality, suddenly looked ugly again.

Seeing him hesitate to speak, Li Xiangnan walked out, touched a cigarette and refilled it for him, reminding him, "Shouldn't Shi Jian know the warden He of Qincheng Prison?"

"..." Shi Yang's whole body trembled, and cold sweat immediately oozed out of his forehead.

He Yong!

Who doesn't know!

Due to poor management, Shen Yujing was poisoned and almost died. He was demoted and now no one knows where he was transferred to!

His deeds are now used as a propaganda model by the ministry to warn everyone to learn from them!

Shi Yang certainly knew that when Li Xiangnan mentioned He Yong, it was a warning to him not to repeat his mistakes and not to try to cover up the truth.

Anyone who does evil will be found out by the police.

"Advisor Li, don't worry. I will never protect anyone in prison. This is a crime, a matter of principle. As law enforcers and advocates of the law, we will never allow anyone to knowingly break the law and collude with criminals!"

Li Xiangnan smiled upon hearing this. "Superintendent Shi, it's not certain yet. There are more than just you administrative staff in the prison right now, there are also a large number of prisoners! Before the truth is revealed, don't doubt your comrades!"

"..." Upon hearing this, Shi Yang's cold sweat broke out again. He silently wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded, "Yes, yes, Consultant Li, I was reckless!"

Shi Yang unconsciously developed some admiration for the young man in front of him.

In such a high-pressure environment, the other party is so indifferent that it even unconsciously affects my mood and mentality.

Most people cannot have such a mentality.

At this time, he came to his senses and explained to his comrades.

"Advisor Li, our prison guards are rigorously trained and scrutinized, and their political literacy is excellent. The prison patrol and management systems have been established for decades, and there have never been any loopholes. Something like what happened to Xu Sheng has never happened before. You must uncover the truth as quickly as possible and thoroughly investigate this case!"

"Shi Jian, I understand how you feel..."

Li Xiangnan was just about to comfort him and ask him to pay attention to the issue of whether District Chief Cheng would stay or go, when Guo Qian's voice suddenly rang out in the cell.

"Sorry, Supervisor Shi, you're busy, I have to go in and take a look!"

He smiled and nodded to the other party, turned and walked into the cell, immediately closed the door, looked up, and saw Guo Qian and Forensic Doctor Wang standing at the head of the bed, looking at the iron bars of the window.

"What's wrong, Captain Guo?"

Guo Qian waved his hands excitedly: "I found a clue!"

Forensic Doctor Wang also pointed to the corner of the wall and said, "I have a new discovery too!"

Oh?

Upon hearing that both of them had made a significant discovery, Li Xiangnan was instantly startled and hurried over...
