A baker's dozen. The first coincidence
Originally, I thought that Zhou Huan would not cooperate with our investigation, but after she finished smoking a cigarette, she quickly became serious, and carefully flipped through the long list of lists, her hand lit those famous books, and her mouth was full of words. As I expected, most of the people at the reception were serious, and many of them had business dealings with Shen Zhixiang, but they were basically economic exchanges, and there were no disputes. According to Zhou Huan's theory, although debts are a common thing, Shen Zhixiang knows very well which people can owe, and which people's money is absolutely impossible to owe, and the people who can be invited to the cocktail party are almost all famous figures in this city, Shen Zhixiang is a shrewd businessman, and there is no economic dispute with these people at all, it can be said that in the eyes of these people, Shen Zhixiang is a very trustworthy person.
"He's here too? How so? Zhou Huan's hand pointing to the list suddenly stopped, and said with a somewhat hesitant expression on his face: "Xiao Tian? β¦β¦ You can't be wrong with the address, right? He would also be invited to such a drinking party? β
Xiao Tian? I was also taken aback, although there are many people with the same name and surname, Xiao Tian who appeared at the reception that day was Pantene's husband, because the registration below is very detailed, and the home address is on it.
"You know him? He was indeed at the reception yesterday, and I know him. But it's a pure coincidence that he appeared there, because they happen to be ......" I hurriedly explained, but I didn't quite understand why Zhou Huan's attitude was so strange, it stands to reason that the lives of these two people should not intersect.
"Nothing. I'm just asking. Do you know him? How is he? And his very beautiful wife, okay? Zhou Huan pretended to ask casually, and then continued to look at the names below.
I nodded: "Very good, it looks like a very loving couple, they went with friends that night." β
"Guessed." Zhou Huan didn't say anything more, just nodded a little vaguely, completely unwilling to talk more about this matter. She quickly read the rest of the names, then shook her head and said, "It's a pity that nothing special has been found." At the very least, we seem to be friends with these people on the surface...... As you all know, in our circle, the so-called friends, that's what it is. β
"What is the relationship between this Xiao Tian and the deceased?" Before I could speak, Qin Ming was already the first to speak, and the question was very direct, "Please don't hide anything from us." β
"Him?" Zhou Huan's originally calm expression became a little embarrassed, and he said after a while: "He turned out to be a project manager of Shen Zhixiang's company...... I appreciate his ......, and the two of us have more contact because of the work...... You should all understand. Then I met his wife, a beautiful woman who was very particular about details. Shen Zhixiang once pursued her......"
Originally, I thought it was something between Zhou Huan and Xiao Tian, but the final conclusion shocked me so much that my jaw was about to fall. But think about it, very few people can resist a woman like Pantene, right? Especially a rich person like Shen Zhixiang will pay special attention to a woman like Pantene who looks like a goddess of almost perfection.
Qin Ming was also so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time, and only after a while did he say, "Oh." This one...... We'll keep investigating. β
Zhou Huan shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I think it's been so long, I'm afraid they don't care anymore, not to mention that Shen Zhixiang still took Hongzi with him yesterday, and it's unlikely that he cares." The most important thing at the moment is that you have to find out if someone is trying to murder him, and this is a question of whether our project can continue, I think...... If there's something really wrong with this, I'd better avoid the limelight. β
However, Zhou Huan was able to sit down quietly and talk to us, but it was only an hour, and she quickly fell into a hurry. Needless to ask, Shen Zhixiang's sudden death will inevitably plunge his company into a crisis. We left quickly and decided to visit the outdated female star again.
Hongzi is another style. Although she is already an outdated star, she has been all the rage after all, so although the place where she lives and the style are not as happy as Zhou, she is also quite imposing. In the face of our appearance, she was a little embarrassed, and said delicately: "It really scared me when that situation happened." Really, although I have also filmed detective dramas and the like, I never thought that there would be a murder case around me. β
"Can you describe what it was like?" Seeing her frowning, constantly touching her chest, and having some exaggerated expressions, it was easy to see that she was acting. Seeing the displeasure on her face, she was obviously still unsatisfied, and wanted to continue to show her acting skills, so I said lightly: "I suspect that it may be murder, so I hope you can recall all the details carefully, which will help us figure out the truth of the matter." β
"Murder?" Hongzi raised his orchid fingers to cover his mouth with some exaggerated expressions, and only said after a long while: "Didn't you say that it was a heart attack?" How can it be involved in murder? That's really ...... It's scary. β
"It's just a suspicion, there are no definite conclusions." I frowned, and the way she looked made me want to slap her twice so that she could sober up, and now we were going to investigate a case where human life was at stake, not to see her exaggerate her emotions here, and to prove that she did have acting skills.
She nodded, tears in her eyes, and said after a while, "It looked normal at the time." Is it just a drinking party? He has always been by my side, and you all know that these so-called rich people, as long as they have so much stinky money, don't they start thinking about all kinds of messy things. And that's exactly what it is. At the party, he brought me some to drink and greeted the others. He seemed to know most of the people there, and he said hello almost once, and then there was a little accident, and he was hit. After that we sat down to rest for a while and had a few chats with people he knewβin fact, he had been pulling me to show off in front of everyone. At this point, I can still see that he is probably showing off, and he can actually let me accompany him to the drinking party, right? I still understand the little bit of a man's thoughts. After that, it's just a matter of continuing to talk to someone. Originally, we were going to celebrate the owner of the hotel, but the accident happened at that time. I thought he was joking with me, and seeing him fall to the ground and feel uncomfortable, I knew something wasn't right...... It wasn't until later, when the tall doctor shook his head, that I didn't know ...... He really can't do it anymore. β
