Chapter 54 The Discovery on the Third Floor
How could it be possible for Lin Can's fiery eyes to hide from the sensitive Chu Zheng? When he first looked over, Chu Zheng had already noticed it, but he was used to it—or accepted Lin Can's occasional weird behavior. It was as if Lin Can had been added to the trust list, as long as his actions were not excessive, Chu Zheng would not be alerted again.
This is also the reason why no matter how Lin Can looked at it, it would not affect Chu Zheng's eating.
This meal, everyone ate quickly and satisfactorily.
"Miss Wu, can we go to the third floor now?" Chu Zheng asked directly after Wu Ru put down the dishes.
"What if you go there and still get nothing?" Wu Rudong asked after wiping her mouth unhurriedly. Although her attitude towards Lin Can and Chu Zheng was pretty good from the beginning to the end, they would never think that Wu Rudong would In the next moment, he suddenly turned his face.
Lin Can stood up and said with certainty: "Absolutely not!"
"Okay, I'm going to see Dad now. I'll make arrangements. As long as you're in this house, you can move around freely. It's here at 5 o'clock. I hope you can show up on time." Wu Rudong left without looking back. here.
Although Lin Can got Wu Rudong's guarantee that he could act freely, he was not happy at all: "Hey, Chu Zheng, we are a really useless detective. Well protected, the crime scene of our case has probably been cleaned from the inside to the outside."
"Investigating the murder is my task, you should pay more attention to your own task." Chu Zheng reminded.
Lin Can chuckled, and said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether my task is completed or not, anyway, I don't lack those points."
Chu Zheng knew that Lin Can's words were true, he was not short of points, and he was also taken aback when he checked Lin Can's item list.
So he didn't mention it any more, since Lin Can insisted on investigating the truth of Wu Liwang's death together, then let's go together, but he still has a question: "Why did you promise Wu Rudong that there will be a discovery?".
If nothing is found, Lin Can is likely to be angered by Wu Rudong, who has a weird personality.
"Because I believe in you!" Lin Can blinked happily at Chu Zheng.
Before Chu Zheng could speak, Lin Can asked teasingly: "It's you, why do you suddenly want to go to the third floor to check again? Didn't you say that although what I said was correct, it was useless?"
"That was before knowing the reason why Duan Chuzhen sabotaged the monitoring." Chu Zheng ignored Lin Can's unbeatable smile, got up and left the room.
Needless to say, Lin Can, the follower, followed directly.
The waiters scattered everywhere acted as if the two of them were air, as expected of a rich family, they all knew Wu Rudong's order so quickly.
All the way was smooth, and the two of them reached the third floor.
Only when they reached the corner of the third floor, there were obviously guards. After they entered the third floor, the two found that there was no one there.
Lin Can and Chu Zheng first went to find Wu Liwang's bathroom. As expected, it had been cleaned up. Even the water in the bath had been emptied, and the blanket under the water was nowhere to be found. One would expect a drowned body to soak in the steaming water here in the morning.
Sighing, Lin Can wanted to leave.
"Lin Can," Chu Zheng stopped him, "If you assume that you are Wu Liwang, what reason would you come here late at night alone after drinking?"
Lin Can knew that Chu Zheng was not good at empathy, so he turned to him for help. After thinking about it seriously, he said, "If I were him, yesterday was the anniversary of the disappearance of the first wife and son, and I would definitely not be in a good mood. If you quarrel with your disobedient daughter, you will definitely be bored. It’s normal to drink some alcohol. As for why you come here to take a bath after being drunk, it’s easier to explain. It’s not unexpected for a drunk person to do anything. What's more, he already has the habit of taking a bath to relax."
"So, if it is assumed that Wu Liwang's death was really an accident, it all makes sense." Chu Zheng frowned, with doubts in his eyes: "But what is the purpose of that mysterious person who sent the anonymous letter, and how did he do it?" Knowing that Wu Liwang would drown after drinking last night, the Prophet of Uncertainty threatened Duan Kai with the photo he had given Wu Rudong in advance, and used Duan Kai to let Duan Chuzhen destroy the surveillance at five o'clock in the morning when Wu Liwang died."
"That child!" Lin Can thought hard following Chu Zheng's analysis, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, "The first time I sent letters and photos to Wu Rudong, I knew that Wu Rudong didn't like Duan Chuzhen, and she would definitely trouble Duan Chuzhen when she saw it. The only possibility is to cause Duan Chuzhen to have a miscarriage!"
"It's just that what he didn't expect was that Wu Rudong would stand still, so that person made another plan, threatened Duan Kai with a photo, and created the biggest suspicion for Duan Chuzhen through him, even if Duan Chuzhen could survive the blow of Wu Liwang's death, He will also be hit hard because of the unclear suspicions in himself, and Wu Rudong will definitely press every step of the way, under so many pressures, the possibility of miscarriage for the submissive Duan Chuzhen will be even greater!"
Chu Zheng nodded: "That's right, even if Duan Chuzhen is strong-willed, even if he secretly moves, everyone will only think that Duan Chuzhen suffered a miscarriage under heavy pressure."
"But what's the benefit of that person getting rid of the fetus? It seems that the only beneficiary of this matter is Wu Rudong. Could it be that there is no mysterious person at all, and the letter and photos were actually prepared by Wu Rudong himself?" Lin Can's thoughts were overwhelmed. Opened it, although he didn't believe that Wu Rudong would kill his father, but it's not impossible for her to do things like make her stepmother lose her child.
Chu Zheng shook his head, and did not agree with Lin Can's opinion: "Wu Rudong has many ways to target the child in the womb of the stepmother, and there is no need to use such a troublesome method. What's more, it is impossible for her to know that something will happen to her father. Under the circumstances, there is still the mood to design the child in the womb of the stepmother."
"That's right," Lin Can nodded, "That eldest lady doesn't look like someone who would do such obscene things."
But Lin Can didn't understand, what exactly was this mysterious man planning?
In fact, Chu Zheng didn't want to understand, what exactly does that mysterious person want to do?
But Lin Can was only slightly puzzled for a while, and his attention was attracted by the empty pool, and he squatted beside the empty pool curiously.
"It's heated by steam." Seeing Lin Can's curiosity, Chu Zheng introduced to him: "Through the heater, reheat the cold water that passes through the circulation pump and pour it into the bath, so that the temperature can be kept constant. The heating time and temperature can be set.”
It turned out that Lin Can's curiosity was satisfied, and he lost interest. He didn't want to take a dip in this dead pool.
Chu Zheng has already checked this place again, and indeed found nothing.
"By the way, let's go take a look at that icehouse!" Lin Can suddenly remembered the icehouse Duan Chuzhen mentioned in the middle of the reception room on the first floor.
Chu Zheng nodded, before Lin Can came over, he turned around and left.
After asking the servant who was trimming the green plants in the corridor, the two of them successfully found the ice room, not far from the bathroom.
The door of the freezer was designed to be very heavy, and Lin Can didn't push it at first. After refusing Chu Zheng's help, Lin Can mustered up all his energy to push the door open by himself.
The door finally opened.
A coolness pierced through the crack of the door, desperately burrowing into the gaps in people's clothes. The temperature in this season is neither high nor low, but standing at the door of the icehouse, I feel the coolness rushing towards my face.
Lin Can couldn't help shivering.
When the two came out of the duel field, Chu Zheng's coat had disappeared, and his shirt was torn by Lie Yun and was stained with blood. In order to cover these, he could only wear Lin Can's coat on the outside. Fortunately, he is only a little shorter than Lin Can, and the other's coat still fits him well.
As for Lin Can, without a coat, he could only wear a shirt. At this moment, he was shocked by the cold air inside, and his whole body was covered with goose bumps.
"Chu Zheng, I won't go in and have a look, it's too cold inside." Lin Can stood a little further away and said helplessly.
Chu Zheng nodded and went in by himself.
Just when Lin Can was worried that Chu Zheng was frozen inside and could not get out, he finally came out.
Because just after he came out of the cold space, Chu Zheng’s exhaled breath would turn into a white mist, and his face was also a little pale. Don’t think about it, his body temperature was already low, and his whole body must be cold now.
Lin Can smirked, wanting to die and shamelessly leaning over to help Chu Zheng cover his hands, he noticed something on Chu Zheng's right hand hanging by his side.
Chu Zheng raised the object in his hand, only then did Lin Can see that it was actually a tape.
"Uh, found it inside?" Looking at the tape in Chu Zheng's hand, Lin Can suddenly remembered the tape recorder in Wu Liwang's office, and a shelf full of tapes with dates written on it.
"Yes." Chu Zheng handed the tape to Lin Can.
After subconsciously taking the tape, Lin Can came to his senses: "What are you going to do for me?"
"Someone must have accidentally left it here. I don't know how long it has been here. It may have been broken." Chu Zheng walked past Lin Can towards the reception room while talking.
"Then what are you going to do for me?" Lin Can still didn't understand why Chu Zheng gave him the tape, but people were like this, in fact, they just asked casually but the other party avoided answering, the more they wanted to know, even worried.
Chu Zheng continued walking forward as if he didn't hear it.
"If you don't tell me, I'll lose it!" Lin Can quit, instead of catching up with Chu Zheng as he was used to, he stood still and said.
Chu Zheng stopped, and he turned around to look at Lin Can, who was playing with a childish temper. After a brief exchange of eyes, Chu Zheng was defeated, and he turned his gaze elsewhere, a little helpless: "This tape may be very important, your Luck has always been better than mine, so let you take it."
Lin Can accepted this answer.Although he didn't think he was lucky, Chu Zheng was really unlucky.
"Let's just borrow my Ou Qi to use it." Lin Can chased after Chu Zheng with a smile, "We both signed a marriage contract, we are a family, what is mine is yours."
Lin Can smiled and joked, but his steps followed Chu Zheng closely.
Chu Zheng cast a sideways glance at Lin Can, who was full of pride, and walked quickly a few steps silently, trying to widen the distance between the two of them. However, Lin Can moved faster than him, and ran to the front with a whoosh, watching him walk. It was obvious that he wanted to deliberately block Chu Zheng from overtaking him.
This is also the reason why no matter how Lin Can looked at it, it would not affect Chu Zheng's eating.
This meal, everyone ate quickly and satisfactorily.
"Miss Wu, can we go to the third floor now?" Chu Zheng asked directly after Wu Ru put down the dishes.
