Imperial Treasure-Chapter 899 - 547: Walking on Thin Ice (Returned Millennium He’s Jade +5) (Part 2)
At a single glance from her, all the media holding microphones felt a tremor in their hearts.
Holy shit, why does this feel like I’m embarrassed and my knees hurt?
"No special opinions, but if you really insist I say something before you let me leave... then I can only say one thing."
"Before you speak and act, consider whether you were born with the face of God" (Suddenly thought my words were quite interesting, haha~)
After speaking, Sui Yi turned and left.
Gong Jiu laughed at these media people, and a group of beautiful individuals left just like that.
Yet, one short-haired woman glanced back.
Snap!
Several people dropped their cameras on the floor.
"Before speaking and acting, consider whether you were born with the face of God... I can only say, this sentence truly matches the aura of this Sui Tang Square founder," a female reporter caught her almost dropped camera, staring at Sui Yi’s back, sighed quietly.
Quickly, someone dug out those bossy words from Lin Yun and others back then.
Certainly Sui-style.
Simple, elegant, restrained, powerful.
"No wonder Xiao Xianting said despite being cautious like walking on thin ice, he ultimately failed miserably."
In terms of capital, Sui Yi indeed doesn’t need to rely on even a bit from Xiao Xianting nor the Xiao family.
"Everyone, in future encounters with the Xiao Family, better be careful, this lone wolf is notoriously ruthless and merciless."
Obviously, the Provincial City reporter circle is a non-favorable subject for this massive consortium recently.
Their turn to be cautious like walking on thin ice.
Back in the Capital City, Gong Jiu and the others didn’t mention Xiao Xianting’s affair but occasionally inquired about that murder case.
The focus was still on that stone; Sui Yi must have been interested to go there, but this kind of development was also unexpected.
Gong Jiu and the others were somewhat interested too, at this moment, in a bright, tidy, warm hall, Gong Jiu, barefoot, wearing a plush robe, flipping through a stack of case files in hand, these were materials sent by her informant in the police station.
Gong Jiu, Yi, Su Zimu, Flower Demon, and Yhan Qingwu were all watching.
Originally curious, as they read on, their expressions became somewhat solemn,
"A truly bizarre case."
"Three major suspicions, first, the autopsy report’s time of death was a month before the body was discovered, yet Xiao Xianting saw him seven days ago and also had two conversations with him on that day, neither the call record nor voice match had any issues, it’s confirmed the voice was from him, this is the temporal suspicion."
"Second, the cause of death in the autopsy was mechanical asphyxiation, meaning hanging, but the body did not display some common symptoms of hanging death, like bowel leakage, ejaculation... he died too cleanly, this is the bodily form suspicion."
"Third, after hanging, his legs were a meter off the ground, there were no chairs or other objects in his house that he could have used for stepping, even if there were, they should be left in place, and the dust on the beam was quite thick, accumulated over years, no signs of human contact, ruling out grabbing the rope from the beam and jumping off to hang himself, the most bizarre is... that rope wasn’t an ordinary rope."
Gong Jiu has considerable investigation skills, the suspicions she concluded are quite accurate, everyone listened intently, and as she paused, Su Zimu asked: "What kind of rope was it?"
"Tendon," Gong Jiu grinned, "Human tendon!"
What?
"Do you know that human tendons are generally twenty to thirty meters long, very thin, extremely thin, but when bundled together, they form a rope with considerable toughness."
Gong Jiu’s smile was subtle, she said: "The autopsy results showed that all tendons in this person’s body were extracted with some dreadful technique, without damaging the flesh and muscle tissue, and hung around the deceased’s neck, taking him up the Yellow Springs Road... and this deceased... had no other injuries."
Perverted! Extremely bizarre!
Su Zimu looked down at the high-resolution photograph.
Human tendon rope?
Swoosh, she tossed the photo on the table, rubbed her arms, and said to Gong Jiu: "Gong Jiu, scare me again, and I won’t make you desserts."
"Ah, no, I know I was wrong..."
Gong Jiu jumped over to beg for forgiveness.
Flower Demon kicked her, "Such a coward! But Sui Yi, I’m not concerned about who died or who killed them, I just want to know... where’s that stone?"
"Gone," Sui Yi, standing by the window, holding a teacup, replied softly, "I didn’t find the stone after I went in, it must have been taken."
After going in, she saw the body, her insight was strong, instantly spotting several suspicions Gong Jiu mentioned earlier, so she scanned the entire room with magnetic sensation the next moment.
Flawless, exceedingly clean crime scene.
Yet the stone was missing.
"The only confirmation is this is certainly a murder case, I think the person talking to Xiao Xianting wasn’t the deceased but the murderer, if it was the deceased, his death completely surpasses normal human bounds, it’s futile to discuss further, if it was the murderer, then this murderer must have exceptional disguise abilities, starting a month ago deceiving Xiao Xianting, regarding the issues on the body, technically both scientifically and otherwise can create such suspicions for trickery, more importantly, why does this murderer want to delude Xiao Xianting, what motive affects him?"
