Chapter Seventy-Three: The Mystery of the Internet Café

The deceased was one of the customers who went online, and he happened to die in his seat, machine 96. The computer in front of him hadn't been turned off yet, and he seemed to be playing a game before he died, probably the kind that was on fire at the moment, because I saw that most of the computers in Internet cafes were closed.

If I'm looking at it right, this guy's gaming gear seems pretty good.

I put on gloves and shoe covers, and walked up to the deceased, a man no less than 35 years old, and I saw him dying on his back, his eyes open, his mouth slightly open, the skin near his face and neck showing signs of blue, and the obvious signs of jet-black purple near his lips.

Poisoning? I thought to myself.

This person has yellow teeth and should be a perennial smoker; In the bags under the eyes, the dark circles under the eyes are obvious, and it is likely that they often stay up late to surf the Internet; The deceased's face was already pale, but it was not difficult to tell that this person's usual face was not very good. It is likely that there is a health problem and the lifestyle is not very hygienic.

I didn't see anything like a wound directly, so I couldn't determine the cause of death for the time being, so I had to leave it to the medical examiner.

A colleague from the side came over and reported the situation to us: "Report to Team Shao, Director, since the deceased was a customer who was surfing the Internet in an Internet café, his identity was quickly confirmed." ”

"Let's just say it, then." I said to him.

He nodded, picked up the notebook in his hand and said:

"The deceased, a male, Jian Honghong, aged 38, a native of S City, died suddenly at around 5:30 p.m. today while surfing the Internet at the 'Hive Internet Café'. According to our current judgment, the cause of death of the deceased is tentatively determined to be death from poisoning due to nitrite overdose......"

I nodded, and based on what I had just observed of the deceased, it was probably the same conclusion. The skin and lips of the deceased showed obvious signs of bluish and purple color, most likely a sign of poisoning by substances such as nitrite.

"We found a bottle of Coca-Cola that had been drunk in the deceased's seat, and a half-eaten takeaway. We've given these to the forensic doctor to take back for examination. According to the proprietress of the story, this Jian Honghong has been surfing the Internet in their Internet café for a long time and is a frequent customer, so he and the boss know each other......"

"Call the proprietress over and I'll ask her a few things." I said to this comrade.

He nodded, trotted out, and quickly brought the proprietress of the Internet café downstairs with the boss.

The owner of this Internet café looked very bad, and as soon as he came up, he stood aside silently, putting on a stinky face. I think it should be that our police investigation has seriously affected his family's business, so he didn't look at us well.

Fortunately, the proprietress was a person who could talk well, so she immediately came over and said to me with a smile: "Comrade, look, how long will your investigation be...... You see, such a big corpse is there, and the customers are scared away, so how do we do business, don't ......?"

I smiled wryly and said, "Don't be afraid, boss, we'll take the body away soon." As long as you cooperate with us, we will be able to reopen soon. ”

She nodded, agreeing with my words. So I asked, "Do you know this one named Jian Honghong?" ”

"Of course I know.,This person.,Come to the Internet every day after work.,I heard that it's on the construction site.,Usually there's nothing to do.,Come to play games when you're done.,Usually when there's no work, it's on my place all night.,It's been a long time.,It's familiar.。

"So, when he usually surfs the Internet, is there anyone he knows very well? It's the kind of person who often surfs the Internet with him. ”

"Yes, yes, if I remember well, hey, there is a man named Hou Yong, who seems to be this man's buddy, and often plays games with him."

"Where's that buddy, did you come this afternoon?"

"It doesn't seem to be ...... I forgot. ”

"It's okay, we need to check your customer information records, and the surveillance video of your Internet café, the faster you give us the information, the faster we will get the information, and then we will leave immediately, and you can open immediately, how about it?"

Hearing this, the proprietress quickly ran to the front desk of the Internet café and gave us the backup data of their recent Internet customers, and then I asked our technician to copy a copy of the surveillance video from their computer.

After getting what we wanted, I told everyone to gather the team and find someone to transport the body back to the forensic office of the police station. Back at the police station, we quickly set up a simple task force and had a discussion.

"According to the preliminary medical examination, the cause of death of the deceased was nitrite poisoning, so we ruled out the possibility of suicide for the time being, because no one would be stupid enough to carry nitrite with them at all times and put it in their drinks or food."

"This Jian Honghong is a perennial person who wanders into Internet cafes, if he can't say it, he eats, drinks, and sleeps here. The proprietress just told me that he is a worker on a nearby construction site, but it is undoubtedly expensive to surf the Internet and play games, so you can focus on investigating whether this person has a similar brother or sister or lover who has been paying for him. ”

I said to the guys.

"In addition, just now the proprietress mentioned to me this person named Hou Yong, this person should be Jian Honghong's friend, but he didn't come to the Internet today, he is very suspicious, Xiao Zhang, this customer's identity registration form is given to you, you send a few people to investigate this person directly, and report the news to me."

"Okay." Xiao Zhang, who was sitting below, nodded and took notes.

"I've already had someone copy of the surveillance video, and since the time span is not long, I'll just release it, and everyone can take a look at it, so I can do a little analysis."

As I spoke, I nodded at Ouyang Qian, who then opened the copy file on the computer and played the video content on the projector behind me.

In the video, we clearly saw Jian Honghong sitting on machine 96 in the Internet café, playing his game. The Internet café was almost full at this time. At this time, we saw that Jian Honghong already had Coke and takeout on his table. He was eating takeout and drinking Coke.

After a while, we can clearly see that he began to gradually slow down the game in his hand, with a series of abnormal movements, he has symptoms of retching and convulsions, and we can see that he is emotionally unstable, irritable, and occasionally beats the mouse and keyboard in his hand.

This is the sign of nitrite poisoning.

After a while, he completely put down the game in his hand and took a big breath, but found that he couldn't breathe at all. He tried to call for help from the person next to him, but to no avail.

He soon died in his seat.
