Shen Mingyue saw all this in her eyes, unlike the excitement and surprise of the Tao family, her heart was full of doubts. Qin Xuechuan's appearance made her feel an inexplicable sense of disobedience, and this strange feeling became stronger and stronger as Qin Xuechuan behaved better, but she couldn't think of anything wrong for a while.

Shen Mingyue has been accustomed to seeing the Tao family being bullied and wronged these days, as well as the hardships of his family's life, as well as Tao Sansheng's tenacity and helplessness, which are in stark contrast to the current scene. Qin Xuechuan obviously knew about the situation of the Tao family for a long time, but he appeared at this time period not too early or late, not only with good words and comfort, but also brought the so-called public pension, from the outside of the envelope, at least it was close to six figures, such a large amount of money seemed too casual.

However, suspicion is suspicion, Qin Xuechuan did solve the Tao family's urgent need, and everyone was obviously grateful to him and wanted to keep him at home for dinner. But Qin Xuechuan declared that he would go back earlier, and refused on the grounds that he would have a meeting early tomorrow morning, and then drove away from Tao's house alone.

Chen Tianyu lived in a guest house, and when he got a report from Shen Mingyue, he was also very surprised that the deputy director of the Tangtang Mining Bureau actually went to visit the miners' homes privately and brought so much money, no matter where it happened, it was unheard of. Qin Xuechuan and his people, Chen Tianyu has heard a little, and knows that he is the executive deputy director in charge of coal mine production, and he is young and old, and his work is serious and down-to-earth, and he is almost on the rise. However, Chen Tianyu was not familiar with the specific personnel appointment, he notified Liu Zichen and Kuang Suo to collect information about Qin Xuechuan from the side, but he must not disturb him.

Not long after Shen Mingyue's report, Fat Sheng, who was in charge of monitoring the periphery of Tao's house, also came with news, saying that after Qin Xuechuan and Tao E arrived at Tao's house by car, it seemed that there was another car not far away. Qin Xuechuan's car stopped at the door of Tao's house, and the car was parked in an inconspicuous place around the corner.

Fat Sheng kept an eye on the car behind from time to time, and never saw anyone get out of the car, and the car didn't seem to turn off. Until Qin Xuechuan went out and drove away, the car also drove away slowly, and Fat Sheng called to ask if he needed to follow and check the identity of the other party.

Chen Tianyu thought about it a little, if according to Fat Sheng's description, it is very likely that the car behind is specially to track Qin Xuechuan, and Qin Xuechuan himself should not know that he was being followed, and now everything is in the stage of secret investigation, and the other party is still a government official with a high administrative level, so it is not suitable to startle the snake. As for the situation of secretly tracking the vehicle, its origin and intentions are not clear, and it is naturally impossible to catch up with the wheels with fat legs and feet, unless special measures are taken. Because Wan Yongkun and Li Yiting went to other cities for something, Beiting was very understaffed in the local area, and the situation was not familiar, Chen Tianyu instructed Fat Sheng not to act rashly, just stay in place and be on standby, and don't take risks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

After Li Yiting and Wan Yongkun arrived in TY City, they immediately contacted the local police to apply for assistance and began a carpet survey of the area near the train station. Considering that Cao Bao came here and needed to eat and sleep at least, they focused on investigating restaurants, hotels and ordinary hotels, and finally found Cao Bao's name in the registration information database of an express hotel chain.

According to the system, this Cao Bao checked into the hotel three days ago and paid for a week's room at once. Comparing the description and registration information of the front desk attendant, it can be confirmed that Cao Bao did live alone, his mother and wife did not appear, as for whether these two people have been here after checking in, it is difficult to determine, which needs to call up the hotel's monitoring, and you have to check dozens of hours of video to find.

In order to thoroughly understand the purpose of Cao Bao's coming here, Li Yiting did not go directly to him, but asked the hotel to arrange for them to temporarily stay opposite Cao Bao's room, so as to facilitate surveillance. Although the face-to-face monitoring was direct and simple, it was a bit boring, so the two of them took turns to rest, staring at the cat's eyes and looking outside, but after a whole day and night, they didn't see Cao Bao's shadow. In other words, Cao Bao didn't leave the room for half a step all day, nor did he come out to eat, which is more strange, there is no place to cook in the express hotel, doesn't he eat or drink?

Through line monitoring, Li Yiting and Wan Yongkun did not find out that he had ordered takeout, and no one came to look for him, anyway, the door of the opposite room was never opened. This is the eighteenth floor, and it is impossible for people to enter and exit through the outside window, only through the gate, so it is obvious that Cao Bao has indeed not left an inch in a day and a night.

This made Li Yiting puzzled, if Cao Bao didn't go out, then what did he do when he came to this city? He didn't see any friends or run errands, did he just come to hide himself? But it was obviously not a good choice for him to choose to hide here, at least he should choose a small place or a rural area, wouldn't it be more appropriate to hide in this way?"

Li Yiting's uneasiness became stronger and stronger, and he even wondered if Cao Bao had left not long after checking in, and the room was empty. At this time, Wan Yongkun had already watched the corridor surveillance video played by fast forward, and it was certain that the night before yesterday, that is, after Cao Bao entered the opposite room, he did not come out again, and there was only the image of him when he entered the door in the video.

Another day passed, and the fact that Cao Bao hadn't gone out for three days made Li Yiting even more worried, he couldn't go on like this, and he was determined that he couldn't wait, so he called the waiter and asked the waiter to use the hotel's spare room card to open the room where Cao Bao lived.

When the door was pushed open, a slight rancid smell came out, Li Yiting knew something bad, was he still late?

Sure enough, Cao Bao was lying on the bed, covering the quilt properly, but he was already dead. The temperature was low, and judging from the stiffness and the smell of corpses, Cao Bao should have been dead for more than two or three days, that is, shortly after he moved in.

The local police quickly rushed to the hotel front desk to report the case, and after Li Yiting showed his ID, he continued to stay at the scene to check. He found that Cao Bao's body did not have any external injuries and bleeding spots, his whole body was intact, the quilt was covered on his body, and he was lying flat, quietly closing his eyes, very much like a state of natural death while sleeping. In the small rooms of the hotel, things are basically in place, there are no traces of rummaging or destruction, and the scene is very clean.

The situation was not clear, so Li Yiting had to inform Xu Jingnan and ask him to rush here as soon as possible to assist the local police in conducting an autopsy on Cao Bao, and asked Wan Yongkun to re-examine the hotel's internal surveillance, focusing on Cao Bao's state when he came, and looking for suspicious clues.

Xu Jingnan rushed to hear the news, and the local forensic department also heard of his name, so he waited until he arrived before he began to work officially, through Cao Bao's autopsy, Xu Jingnan found that Cao Bao still had a lot of food left in his stomach, apparently he died before he could digest it, which preliminarily shows that Cao Bao died immediately after returning to his residence after eating, because the normal food in the stomach can generally be digested in four hours. Through the examination of the food, no overt toxins were found in it, and no signs of strong poisoning were found in Cao Bao's blood, but there was a high concentration of alcohol. The heart was black, and the aorta showed blockage, which should be the main cause of death for Cao Bao, and Xu Jingnan finally determined that Cao Bao died of myocardial infarction caused by excessive drinking, in other words, he died suddenly in his sleep because he drank too much.

According to the autopsy results, after Wan Yongkun re-checked the video surveillance, he made the same discovery, when Cao Bao went upstairs alone the night before, he did walk a little abnormally, and sometimes he had to hold on to the wall to stand firmly, which was indeed very much like being drunk. The front desk clerk also recalled that the guest came with the smell of alcohol, and it was difficult to communicate, so it took a long time to take out his ID card to check in, and he also swiped the room price for a week and did not ask the price. Comprehensive analysis of various clues clearly shows that that that night, Cao Bao did return to the room after drinking and died suddenly.

Since there were no physiological indications to indicate that Cao Bao's death was suspected of murder, the police could not file a case and could only hand it over to the police station as an ordinary accident. But Li Yiting felt that Cao Bao, as an important witness in this case, died when he came to him, which seemed to be too much of a coincidence. So he didn't want to easily confirm this conclusion for the time being, and of course he couldn't analyze too many other possibilities with the police without any evidence, so he asked Xu Jingnan to continue to conduct in-depth research on Cao Bao's body to see if other clues could be found.

On the other hand, Wan Yongkun and the police searched the neighborhood, but they did not find any trace of Cao Bao's mother, Yan Baoping, and they could not find anything in the bank and telecommunications system. The woman seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, completely missing in this small city, she didn't stay, she didn't spend, she didn't call, and she didn't withdraw money, which didn't seem like the normal behavior of a normal person who was away from home. Li Yiting believes that there are only two possibilities, one is that Yan Baoping deliberately avoided appearing in public in order to hide her whereabouts, and the other possibility is that she is no longer alive, and only the dead do not need to eat, drink, live and travel.

The investigation in TY City has reached an impasse for a while, and the two witnesses who are going to be questioned this time are one dead and one missing, and there is no trace of his murder in the dead, and there is no trace of the missing one, Li Yiting has a headache, he called Chen Tianyu, hoping to get a little idea.

After Chen Tianyu had a general understanding of the situation, he did not put forward any opinions. He has a lot of trust in Xu Jingnan's autopsy ability, but he is even more in favor of Li Yiting's doubts. Therefore, Chen Tianyu asked Li Yiting to wait for Xu Jingnan's review of the autopsy report before doing the district, as for Yan Baoping, he had a special idea.

Chen Tianyu meant that since it seems that Cao Bao died suddenly and accidentally, there is no need to hide it any longer, the news of his death can be announced, and then the family of the deceased can come to claim the body. Now that Cao Bao's father Cao Hongwei has passed away, and his immediate family is only left with his mother or wife, perhaps after learning of Cao Bao's death, the family will take the initiative to appear.
