"Biological weapons?" Fang Zigui frowned and asked, "Are you talking about Bee Venom?"
Zheng Jianfei shook his head. "No, it's a special Gu Poison cultivated using the venom of the Golden Money Bee."
The room fell silent as everyone was stunned by this shocking revelation. They instantly understood that what the Gu Master Granny had mentioned earlier about Lin Mingchang being poisoned referred to this special artificial Gu Poison.
"So, that means those three were killed because..." Shen Tong had already guessed the truth behind the murders.
"That's correct," Zheng Jianfei nodded and continued, "We suspect that Doctor Thomson discovered this truth during his research and intended to expose it to the Police Station, which led to his demise. The other two victims likely met the same fate because they uncovered some clues."
At that moment, Xiaoshuang suddenly remembered something and said anxiously, "Officer Zheng, I heard this morning in the Village that Long Tianming has come down from the mountain. He wouldn't have sensed something and planned to run away, would he?"
"Not at all. Long Tianming is powerful and influential, with backing behind him; he doesn't take our Police Station seriously at all." Zheng Jianfei appeared quite confident as he continued, "As for you outsiders, in his eyes, even if you haven't died, you've surely been scared out of your wits and won't dare to pursue this further. So he wouldn't run. His descent is to prepare for shipping the first batch of 'Gu Poison weapons' to Shanghai for further transport abroad."
"You've known all this for a while; why not arrest him?" Xiaoshuang asked in confusion.
"We're waiting for the right moment," Zheng Jianfei explained. "If we only capture Long Tianming, others will still be drawn in by the profits and continue his operations. So I plan to fish for bigger prey by waiting until he ships the goods and then capture him along with the intermediaries and buyers."
He glanced at Lin Mingchang lying on the couch. "I've sent Peng Zai to keep an eye on Long Tianming; he'll head back to meet him shortly. Once Mr. Lin wakes up, you should all hurry back to the city; it's too dangerous here."
Just then, Lin Mingchang suddenly let out a faint groan, and everyone's eyes turned toward him.
"Lin Mingchang?" Shen Tong was the first to rush to his side, gently holding his hand. "You're awake? How do you feel?"
Lin Mingchang slowly opened his eyes, his gaze still somewhat dazed. He blinked a few times with difficulty, his cracked lips moving slightly. "I remember... I was poisoned?"
Fang Zigui nodded. "Not only that; you were poisoned with an artificial Gu Poison cultivated from Long Tianming's Golden Money Bee venom. The murderer behind this case is Long Tianming..."
Then they recounted Zheng Jianfei's earlier words to Lin Mingchang. They now understood why Zheng Jianfei had been so distant with them these past few days—everything was done to protect them.
Zheng Jianfei cleared his throat awkwardly. "Ahem... Since Mr. Lin is awake now, I need to head down the mountain quickly; this case will be handled by our Police Station."
However, Lin Mingchang shook his head and struggled to sit up. "Officer Zheng, I'm fine now. Since I've promised Director Zhou regarding this case, I must do my best to help."
Shen Tong, Xiaoshuang, and Fang Zigui all nodded in agreement.
Fang Zigui stepped forward and said, "Officer Zheng, relationships are like paper; fate is like scissors. Now that we've gotten involved, it's not so easy to withdraw. Besides, each of us has our strengths; rather than acting alone, we should work together to solve this case."
