Chapter 1273 - 630: Following the Clues? Subtle Threads_2

"Officer, how is your investigation going? Any results yet?"

"Do these people have any suspicion?"

Upon hearing this voice.

Luo Fei was noncommittal.

"Manager Liu, do you think investigating a case is like cooking? How can there be results so quickly? We did indeed question several employees just now. But we have to wait for a thorough investigation before we can confirm the results."

Luo Fei spoke earnestly.

This made Manager Liu take a deep breath.

"Mr. Luo, I’m really sorry for causing you trouble. I apologize to you here."

Detecting Manager Liu’s slight embarrassment.

Luo Fei merely smiled.

"Manager Liu, why are you so nervous?"

Upon hearing Luo Fei’s question.

Manager Liu remained somewhat embarrassed.

His gaze also darted around.

"Nervous, am I?"

Detecting the other’s surprise.

It seemed he didn’t expect himself to say this.

Luo Fei remained earnest, noncommittal.

"Manager Liu, if I were you, I’d relax."

"After all, given the current situation, you don’t have a direct connection to the case. So, you’re not highly suspicious."

"Besides, it’s possible that Miss Yang just had an accident."

In Luo Fei’s view, Yang Youqin might have locked herself in the freezer by accident.

It’s not necessarily a murder.

Upon hearing this.

Liu Guanghui couldn’t help but be curious.

"Mr. Luo, how did you come to this conclusion?"

"Manager Liu, isn’t this logical? Yang Youqin entered the factory with the agent. Then ventured inside alone. This may have led to her making a wrong decision."

"Under such circumstances, even if an accident happened, it seems reasonable, doesn’t it?"

Luo Fei’s judgment.

Left Liu Guanghui impressed.

"Mr. Luo, you really have a point. It seems possible."

Though Liu Guanghui said this, he couldn’t help but smile slightly.

His face also showed a hint of excitement.

Clearly understanding Luo Fei’s implication.

And hearing this, Luo Fei also smiled.

"So, Manager Liu, you should also take it easy. We are treating it as a homicide case mainly because someone reported it. Not to mention, we, too, believe the public opinion about us is significant, so as the police, we must be fully responsible and cannot be negligent."

"Otherwise, if people think we don’t take murder cases seriously, wouldn’t that be troublesome? At the very least, we must give Miss Yang’s millions of fans an explanation, right?"

Luo Fei’s words left Liu Guanghui impressed.

"Mr. Luo, I must say, you’re the best."

But just as they were speaking.

Luo Fei noticed.

Lan Mengzhou was gesturing to him.

Seeming to have something to tell him.

So, he immediately proposed.

"Manager Liu, I’ll contact you as soon as the investigation yields results. I have other matters to attend to now. I need to hang up."

"Sure, sure, you go ahead, Mr. Luo."

As the call ended.

Luo Fei asked.

"What’s up, Officer Lan?"

"Mr. Luo, we just received a report. There’s been a murder locally, and the deceased’s height and age seem to match Chen Jinyan’s wife."

This news.

Made Luo Fei frown.

"Let’s go check it out."

While speaking.

Luo Fei and Lan Mengzhou prepared to set off.

And moments later.

As they reached the scene together.

Chen Jinyan was already waiting there.

But his expression was grim, face unspeakably somber.

"Officer, this can’t be real, right? Am I dreaming?"

At this moment.

Chen Jinyan seemed dazed.

Seeing his complex expression.

And very upset.

Luo Fei could only comfort him.

"Mr. Chen, we’re all deeply saddened by this. I hope you can mourn properly and not be overly distressed."

Seeing his sincere apology.

Chen Jinyan shook his head and said.

"There’s nothing to apologize for, Officer. I think it’s not your fault. It’s that I wasn’t attentive enough, didn’t care for her well, allowing this to happen."

Simultaneously.

Xiaocui’s body was brought out.

The forensic pathologist handed Luo Fei the report and photos taken earlier.

"Mr. Luo, based on the body’s condition, the deceased died by suicide."

"And from the takeout boxes and other items in the room, she hadn’t left for quite some time."

This news.

Made Luo Fei frown slightly.

However, he remained unruffled outwardly.

"That can’t be right. Didn’t you find any trace of another person at the scene? Was this woman completely suicidal?"

Seeing Luo Fei’s astonishment.

It seemed he hadn’t expected such an outcome.

The forensic pathologist replied earnestly.

"Officer, from the scene evidence, this woman was hiding in the room afraid to come out. Before her death, she left a recording on her phone, expressing genuine remorse and unease about previously leaking company secrets."

"All these signs effectively demonstrate she was truly frightened and committed suicide."

Luo Fei was somewhat surprised.

"What about the recording? Can I listen to it?"

Luo Fei motioned expectantly.

Though hesitant,

the other took a deep breath and agreed.

"Mr. Luo, you can listen to the recording. However, we must preemptively state that the woman acted very atypically just before her death, so please mentally prepare."

Upon hearing this caution.

Luo Fei chuckled, shaking his head.

"Miss Forensic, you’re overthinking. Haven’t I seen all sorts of storms?"

"These minor matters are nothing worth mentioning."

Luo Fei spoke casually, appearing completely unbothered.

Meanwhile, Lan Mengzhou stood attentively.

...

"Cough cough!... I don’t know if anyone will hear this recording. But if you do hear it, I’m probably no longer in this world."

A somewhat hesitant voice.

With a tone tinged with dread.

Luo Fei confidently remarked.

"Miss Forensic, no need to listen further. I can sense she was threatened, which is why she was so terrified."

Luo Fei’s words surprised the forensic pathologist.

"Mr. Luo, how did you conclude this?"

Seeing the other’s astonishment.

Luo Fei patiently explained.

"It’s simple. Generally, after hiding for a period and being under long-term life-threatening pressure, people tend to feel terrified. Being in a heightened state of tension for an extended time makes them make wrong decisions."

"In such circumstances, deciding to die should bring relief. But she remained scared until the end. Doesn’t that seem strange to you?"

Luo Fei’s rhetorical question left others exchanging glances.

"Hearing Mr. Luo point it out, it really seems that way?"

Observing others’ surprise.

It was unexpected.

Luo Fei patiently elucidated.

"Everyone, so I suspect this girl was threatened. It’s just these people wore shoe covers, leaving no fingerprints in the room."

"This indirectly proves they’ve been mentally pressuring her for days. That’s why she’d rather die, as she was driven crazy."

This conclusion.

Left others inhaling sharply.

They realized,

Luo Fei was right.

Indeed, this case is highly complex.

After listening to Luo Fei’s analysis.

An eavesdropping boyfriend held his breath.

Unable to refrain from frowning.

"Officer, no matter what, please get justice for my girlfriend. I can’t just watch her get murdered and do nothing!"

Seeing Chen Jinyan so agitated.

Luo Fei reassured him.

"Mr. Chen, rest assured."
