The matter of cold storage has not been clarified, and something happened again.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Jiang Tingbai was investigating the matter of the small workshop, but encountered a murder.

Called Li Meng, we immediately drove to the scene of the murder, Li Meng was already asleep, got into the car in a daze, and had not come back to his senses to see what had happened.

The crime scene was in a western restaurant in the center of Ningzhou City, this western restaurant is not a big restaurant, only a small door, there are three tables in the restaurant, and some high seats, quite a Japanese restaurant feeling. There are only two people in the restaurant, a chef and a waiter, but the ingredients are absolutely fresh, fresher than the city's high-end Western restaurants, and the food tastes better. It is said that this chef used to be a three-Michelin-starred chef, and his skills are absolutely not said.

The car was parked on the side of the road, and Jiang Tingbai was picking me up at the door of the store.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"The customer and the waiter had a verbal altercation, the two fought, the customer hit the waiter with a red wine bottle, the waiter stabbed the customer with a knife, and now both of them are in the hospital for rescue. I just looked at the store's surveillance and it's true. Jiang Tingbai said to me.

I was puzzled by what he said, this kind of thing only needs to investigate the reason why they caused the quarrel, determine the responsibility of the two, and then the next thing is civil compensation, what to do with our serious crime team, we must now solve the case of quick-frozen corpses within seventy-two hours, and these things can be handed over to the criminal police team.

"I don't see that your face is not very good, are you not sleeping well?" Jiang Tingbai suddenly asked me.

"Seventy-two hours, how can you sleep?" I shrugged helplessly, then yawned.

Jiang Tingbai smiled and patted me with a hippie smile: "Come on, come on, I'll show you something, and promise to make you sober up immediately." ”

After talking for a long time, Jiang Tingbai still didn't tell me what happened in this case, what was the reason for the quarrel between the waiter and the customer, and most importantly, why the serious crime team should be notified of this matter.

I followed Jiang Tingbai into the house in a daze, and saw blood stains all over the floor, as well as overturned tables and chairs, and broken cutlery. The police were investigating the scene, and a man was sitting in the corner drinking red wine elegantly.

The blood stains at the scene were obviously splashing blood, and he often said this when he followed Ren Qiushi out of the scene. But it doesn't matter anymore, after all, the store's surveillance has recorded everything, and the two injured are also being rescued in the hospital.

"He's the owner of this Western restaurant, and he's the chef in the store." Jiang Tingbai looked at the man who was drinking red wine in the corner and said to me.

Jiang Tingbai and I walked towards the man, who smiled at us very politely and asked, "Two gentlemen, is there anything wrong?" ”

I didn't speak, I picked up the red wine bottle next to the man, it was a 2012 Bordeaux red wine.

The man slowly stood up and introduced the bottle of red wine to us very elegantly: "The climate in Bordeaux in 2012 was very abnormal, with several frosts in February that caused the temperature in Bordeaux to drop to the lowest in 50 years, and the cold and abundant rainfall in April did not ease until May and June, and the flowering of the sluggish vines was delayed and uneven. From late July onwards, the weather in Bordeaux became hot and dry, and the vines were under great pressure to survive, only to improve until late September. So the 2012 vintage was not right, but this year's wines all seem to have a different kind of charm and surprise. So 2012 is also known as the year of surprises. ”

This man told us the origin of this bottle of red wine, he is worthy of being a professional and knows a lot about red wine and Western food.

"You're the owner of the shop?" I asked him.

The man nodded and introduced himself: "My name is Wei Congyang, and I am the owner of this store. ”

"What's going on in the store?" I nodded and asked him again.

"Just now a customer came to the store, ordered a sirloin steak, ordered a bottle of red wine, and after eating for a while, he said that the red wine in my store was fake, so he quarreled with my staff, and then the two of them fought, and I called the police." The boss Wei Congyang said that he was not in a hurry, as if the fight in the store had nothing to do with him, and he could still sit calmly in the corner and drink red wine when the police came.

Li Meng was putting the broken red wine bottles on the ground into the evidence bag, and the remaining red wine in the red wine bottles was also extracted and brought back for examination.

Then she picked up a piece of shard with the red wine logo on it and walked over to me.

The logo on the red wine reads, From: Baiyun Food Company.

I frowned suddenly, why is this Baiyun Food Company again?!

When I went to Baiyun Food Company, the deputy manager Lu You gave me four bottles of red wine, after testing, this is not a high-end red wine, it belongs to a kind of cheap red wine, suitable for ordinary people who do not know much about red wine to taste, cultivate sentiment, and the boss is drinking high-end red wine is not comparable at all.

"I didn't expect that your Western restaurant still sells this kind of cheap red wine." I asked casually as I pretended not to care.

Wei Congyang smiled politely and explained: "There is no way, the consumption level of customers is different, I have to prepare some red wine of any grade here to sell to different customers." ”

He's right, it's not realistic to ask a customer who doesn't know how to buy high-end red wine for thousands of dollars. Coming here to order a steak and a bottle of red wine for hundreds of yuan is the norm of consumption.

"The customer says there's something wrong with this bottle of wine?" I asked him.

Wei Congyang shook his head, a little wanted to laugh, but he didn't show it particularly obviously: "The customer said that my bottle of red wine has a sour taste, and said that it was expired." You must know that red wine has a bitter and sour taste, that is, tannins. ”

Tannins are acidic substances that are mainly derived from grape skins and grape seeds. Red wines are fermented with grape skins preserved, and during the fermentation process, the wine also extracts certain tannic substances from the oak. In terms of chemical structure, the tannins that are impregnated from the grape skins are called "condensed tannins", and the tannins extracted from oak barrels are called "hydrolyzed tannins".

Wei Congyang continued: "It may be because the customer does not know how to do it, and the sour and bitter taste of the absolute red wine is related to the quality of the red wine, and they think that the red wine is bad. The clerk stepped forward to explain to him, but he didn't understand, but quarreled with the clerk, and finally did it. It is normal for them to be accustomed to drinking beer and liquor in their lives, and it is normal for them not to drink red wine, but it is not right to use their ignorance to make trouble. ”

If there is a problem with this bottle of red wine, we will find out when we bring it back and check it.

At this moment, Ren Qiushi of the forensic department brought me a new discovery.
