Ye Qiu, as an important member of the Jianghai City Criminal Police Team, was naturally immersed in the investigation of this complex and murky case.
She was not merely assisting Su Mu from the shadows; instead, she stood shoulder to shoulder with Captain Zhao, actively engaged in the pursuit of the truth.
At this moment, Ye Qiu was intensely focused on sifting through a mountain of documents, her expression serious and concentrated.
Suddenly, as if she had uncovered some crucial information, she looked up with determination in her eyes and addressed Captain Zhao, saying, “In my opinion, Su Mu’s deduction is likely correct.
Based on the information we have gathered so far, the deceased is probably an experienced acupuncturist.”
After speaking, she gently handed the documents to Captain Zhao so he could better understand the relevant details.
Captain Zhao took the documents and began to read them carefully.
Before long, he nodded slightly in agreement with Ye Qiu’s viewpoint. Then, with a grave expression, he responded, “Indeed. Furthermore, based on the analysis of the crime scene and forensic findings, the exquisite needle techniques used by the murderer and the complex and rare mixed poison formula all indicate that this perpetrator possesses a profound understanding of medical knowledge, particularly in acupuncture and toxicology.
Therefore, it is highly likely that this murderer is also a professional in the medical field; we might even boldly speculate that he is a skilled healer.”
After hearing Captain Zhao's words, Ye Qiu nodded thoughtfully and added, “Given this information, our next investigative direction should be clearer.
First of all, your decision to assign personnel to comprehensively investigate all acupuncture clinics and traditional Chinese medicine practices across the city was very wise.
We should especially focus on those acupuncturists who have recently gone missing or exhibited unusual behavior and secretive movements.
Secondly, we must not overlook criminal gangs involved in the illegal sale of toxic herbs like the deadly strychnine.
Perhaps by digging deeper along this line, we can uncover some important clues related to this case!”
"I suggest we approach this from a different angle," Ye Qiu said, furrowing his brow thoughtfully. "Since the murderer is skilled in medicine, it’s highly likely that he has worked within the medical system of Jianghai City for some time.
Therefore, we should focus our investigation in this direction. In my opinion, we can start by checking the doctors who have left various medical institutions in recent years, especially those who are proficient in acupuncture and have knowledge of toxicology."
Upon hearing Ye Qiu's words, Captain Zhao, who had been listening attentively from the side, suddenly brightened up, a look of delight spreading across his face. He couldn't help but praise, "Hmm, that's a great idea!
Ye Qiu, you’ve really impressed me.
There's no time to waste; I’ll arrange for personnel to start the investigation immediately.
Su Mu, you’re quite knowledgeable about medicine, so I’d like you to take charge of filtering through the relevant information on these departing doctors.
Make sure to scrutinize everything carefully; we can't overlook any clues."
Su Mu nodded without hesitation and replied, "No problem, Captain Zhao. I’ll make sure to get it done!" With that, he quickly moved to his desk, opened his computer, and began to focus intently on reviewing the detailed records of doctors who had left major hospitals in Jianghai City in recent years.
Su Mu's eyes were glued to the screen as his fingers flew over the keyboard, flipping through page after page of vast amounts of information.
He concentrated on key elements such as each doctor's professional skills, work experience, and reasons for leaving. He paid special attention to those skilled in acupuncture, those with deep knowledge of pharmacology, and particularly to any doctors whose reasons for departure were unclear.
As time passed quietly in this tense and busy atmosphere, after several days of relentless effort, Su Mu finally discovered a highly suspicious individual among the numerous records—Li Wenxuan.
According to the files, Li Wenxuan was a doctor in the acupuncture department at Jianghai City First People's Hospital. His medical skills were renowned far and wide and received unanimous praise from patients.
However, this outstanding doctor unexpectedly chose to resign not long ago, and the specific reasons for his departure remain unclear.
Just six months ago, an unexpected event occurred—Li Wenxuan suddenly resigned without any warning, and the reason for his departure is still a mystery that no one has been able to unravel.
Moreover, some individuals have informed the police that Li Wenxuan is quite reclusive, often keeping to himself and rarely interacting with others.
What is even more peculiar is his apparent fascination with obscure medical practices and various poisons, dedicating a significant amount of time to studying them in depth.
"I believe Li Wenxuan is highly suspicious!" Ye Qiu said seriously as he handed over detailed information about Li Wenxuan to Captain Zhao. He continued his analysis, "You see, he is skilled in acupuncture and has considerable knowledge of pharmacology. Coupled with his mysterious resignation, these traits align closely with the profile we suspect of the perpetrator."
Captain Zhao took the documents with a grave expression, reading them carefully word by word. As he delved deeper into the information, his brow furrowed tighter.
After a while, Captain Zhao looked up and said heavily, "I must admit that there are indeed many points of suspicion regarding Li Wenxuan. However, so far we do not have any solid evidence to prove that he is the true culprit behind this case. Our immediate priority is to locate him and conduct a thorough investigation."
Without delay, Captain Zhao decisively issued orders for his officers to take immediate action and pursue Li Wenxuan with full force.
However, when the police arrived at Li Wenxuan's residence at breakneck speed, they were met with an empty scene—the owner had long since vanished.
Seeing this situation, Captain Zhao couldn't help but sigh in frustration, "Alas, it seems our operation was too hasty; we inadvertently alerted this 'snake.' It’s likely that Li Wenxuan sensed we were investigating him and fled ahead of time."
Despite Li Wenxuan's narrow escape, Ye Qiu and Captain Zhao did not easily succumb to discouragement.
Both remained convinced that as long as Li Wenxuan was still hiding within Jianghai City, they would eventually find him.
At the same time, Su Mu was also relentless in her efforts, continuing to delve into the various activities of the deceased before their death.
With his exceptional divination skills, Su Mu successfully traced back to the last place the deceased had visited before his death.
To his surprise, the divination clearly pointed to a herbal shop named "Bai Cao Tang."
Upon receiving this crucial lead, Su Mu immediately informed Ye Qiu and Captain Zhao without hesitation.
After learning the situation, Ye Qiu and Captain Zhao wasted no time and quickly rushed to Bai Cao Tang for a more detailed investigation.
Upon arriving at Bai Cao Tang, they were greeted by an elderly traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, Uncle Wang, who was well over sixty yet still full of vitality.
Seeing Ye Qiu and Captain Zhao approach, Uncle Wang warmly welcomed them and revealed, "This deceased was a regular customer here! He often visited my herbal shop and would always purchase some Ghost Grass."
Hearing this, Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel puzzled and quickly asked, "But why did he frequently buy such dangerous Ghost Grass?"
In response to Ye Qiu's question, Uncle Wang shook his head helplessly and replied slowly, "Ah, I was curious about that too. But he only told me he was studying pharmacology; he never mentioned any specific details."
Uncle Wang then solemnly disclosed to Ye Qiu and Captain Zhao, "Every time that deceased came to purchase herbs, he would meet with a mysterious person wearing a mask. This person was exceptionally tall, with a voice as rough as sandpaper, and his face was completely concealed by the mask, making it hard to see anything."
Ye Qiu furrowed his brows and thoughtfully said, "In my opinion, this mysterious figure is very likely the true culprit!" His tone was firm and serious, as if he had already grasped the key to the case. Captain Zhao nodded slightly in agreement with Ye Qiu's viewpoint.
At this moment, Ye Qiu, Su Mu, and Captain Zhao—three investigators with their own strengths—were diligently collecting and organizing the scattered clues. These seemingly unrelated threads began to intertwine and merge under their keen insight, gradually revealing an outline of the truth behind the case.
Although many mysteries remained unsolved, they firmly believed that as long as they maintained their dedication and perseverance in digging deeper, they would eventually uncover the true murderer and bring justice for the wronged deceased.
