Yau Tsim Mong District is the quintessence of Kowloon, with many famous attractions, large shopping malls, and characteristic streets, which are also a must-see for tourists.

Gao An chose a newly opened restaurant in Yau Tsim Mong District to entertain Ho Jiahui.

In addition to the Gao An brothers and sisters, he also called the beautiful forensic doctor Wen Jiaxi to accompany him.

A few people sat in the hotel lobby, and Gao An took the initiative to introduce: "This restaurant was newly opened last month, and the main specialty is Beijing cuisine, the chefs are all invited from Beijing, and many ingredients are also shipped from Beijing." I heard that the Peking duck here is very authentic, and the roast duck master invited from Quanjude, we have to order one to try. ”

"Big brother, this dim sum platter looks very good, the old Beijing dim sum is different from the dim sum we have here, let's try it!" Gao Jing obviously has a soft spot for sweets.

Wen The forensic doctor said: "I will be the guest and the master, what you order, what I eat!" ”

After a few people finished ordering, the waiter checked the menu, and then said: "The Qianlong cabbage you ordered is one of the specialties of our store, and the sauce used in it is Erba sauce airlifted from Beijing, which contains peanut butter, if you are allergic to peanuts, it is recommended not to eat it." ”

"It's okay, let's serve it directly, no one of us here is allergic to peanuts." Gao An said.

A moment later, a master came with a small cart and began to roast duck in front of everyone's noodles.

Xiangjiang people usually eat Cantonese-style roast duck, Cantonese-style roast duck is cut directly with a knife, this kind of roast duck sliced by the master on the spot, is still very rare, Gao An brothers and sisters and Wen forensic doctor, couldn't help but cast a curious gaze.

The sliced roast duck was served on the table, with small cakes, shredded green onions and sauce, and the waiter, worried that the guests would not eat it, also held a plain white computer and played a video of how to roast duck with small bread rolls.

He Jiahui hadn't eaten authentic Peking duck for a long time, so he couldn't help but eat a few more pieces, and he wiped out most of the roast duck in a few moments.

At this moment, a noisy sound sounded from the direction of the door, and I saw two uniformed patrol officers walking through the hotel and then going up the stairs.

"Something's wrong!" He Jiahui said secretly in his heart, but he didn't go over to check, after all, he came to dinner today, don't sweep everyone's Yaxing.

After about half an hour, He Jiahui already felt full of wine and food, but a few familiar faces appeared at the door.

The leader is Cheng Feng, Senior Inspector of the West Kowloon Crime Unit!

Not long ago, Cheng Feng was promoted from inspector to senior inspector, and He Jiahui also sent a message to congratulate.

Seeing Cheng Feng coming over with the whole group of people today, it was obvious that there was a big case.

"That's Cheng sir of the West Kowloon Serious Crime Team, this is the jurisdiction of West Kowloon, there may be a murder, I'll go over and take a look!" He Jiahui spoke, then stood up and followed up the stairs.

"Sir, there is a police case in front of you, you can't go over for the time being!" A waiter stopped him.

He Jiahui took out his police officer ID card and went upstairs smoothly.

Upstairs is also a hall, but here the tables are larger, downstairs is a small table for four to six people, suitable for ordinary gatherings, and upstairs is a round table for eight to ten people, and there are turntables on the table, suitable for many people or family gatherings.

Cheng Feng was standing in front of one of the round tables, and several tables around him had been cleared and cordoned.

He Jiahui got closer and said hello: "Sir Cheng, what happened?" ”

"What sir is it!" Cheng Feng continued; "What a coincidence, are you here for dinner?"

"I heard that the Peking duck here is very authentic, so I came over with my friends for dinner." He Jiahui said, looking at the scene of the crime.

I saw a man about thirty years old, leaning back in a chair, motionless, obviously dead.

"This person looks a little familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere!" He Jiahui thought about it carefully, but he really couldn't remember.

Then He Jiahui asked, "Has the identity of the deceased been confirmed?" ”

"The deceased's name is Ouyang Junxiong, 28 years old, and he was a fitness instructor by profession. That's all you know for now. Cheng Feng replied.

"Ouyang Junxiong?" He Jiahui thought about it, but he didn't have this name in his memory, so he then asked, "The cause of death hasn't been determined yet, right?" ”

Cheng Feng nodded and said, "I just came over, and it is said that half an hour ago, the person was already dead. The cause of death of the deceased is not yet known. I don't know if it's a sudden illness, or something else. I'll be able to confirm it when the medical examiner arrives. ”

"It just so happens that I have a forensic doctor here, and I'll call you up." He Jiahui said.

Cheng Feng was slightly stunned, and said in his heart, how could someone go out to eat and bring a forensic doctor?

However, Cheng Feng still nodded and agreed: "The scene is still the same as when the report was reported, you tell the forensic doctor, don't destroy the scene!" ”

He Jiahui said; "I also have forensics here, and if I need to protect the scene, I'll call him up with me?"

"And forensics? Come along, then. Cheng Feng nodded in some surprise, and pondered in his heart:

Look at people, no wonder they can solve big cases repeatedly, this is professional, go out for a meal, all with forensic and forensic evidence!

……

Wen Jiaxi stepped forward to check the deceased's condition and quickly came to a conclusion.

"The deceased's expression was distorted, his lips were red, and there was white foam at the corners of his mouth, which should have been poisoned to death, and according to the characteristics shown by the deceased, the poison was most likely cyanide." Wen forensic doctor spoke.

"Cyanide?" Cheng Feng frowned, then called the hotel manager and said: "We suspect that the food may have been poisoned, so we immediately sealed the kitchen, and at the same time informed other guests not to eat, we need to determine the source of the poison." ”

The source of the poison has not yet been determined, so it is impossible to confirm the nature of the case, which may have been homicide, suicide, or even accidental ingestion of poison.

He Jiahui looked at the round table where the deceased was eating, the turntable was already full of dishes, and there were ten plates and bowls in total, and the dishes in it had not been finished.

At this time, Cheng Feng had already begun to ask the people who were eating at the same table with the deceased. In addition to the deceased, there were seven people at this table, four men and three women.

The first to be questioned was a tall man with glasses.

"Sir, please show me your ID card." Cheng Feng said.

The other party immediately handed over his ID card, and Cheng Feng looked at his name, this person's name is Xiao Jiaming.

Then Cheng Feng opened his mouth and asked, "Mr. Xiao, you have dinner with the deceased, so what is your relationship with the deceased?" ”

"We're good friends, we've been classmates since middle school, and we've kept in touch since we graduated, and we often have dinner together." Xiao Jiaming replied.

"Mr. Xiao, how many of you mean?" Cheng Feng then asked.

"It's the five of us, me, Du Qiusheng, Zhang Baiqiang, Liu Zhuoyang, and the dead Ouyang." Xiao Jiaming pointed to the other three men who were eating at the same table.

"And who are these three ladies?" Cheng Feng asked.

"The short-haired one is my girlfriend, the one wearing shorts next to me is Zhang Baiqiang's girlfriend, and the shortest one is Liu Zhuoyang's girlfriend." Xiao Jiaming then replied.

Cheng Feng's eyes swept over everyone and asked, "It seems that you came here today to have a dinner?" ”

Xiao Jiaming nodded: "Du Qiusheng said that there is a new restaurant here, which specializes in Beijing cuisine, and there is also the most authentic Peking duck, so he asked us to come together." ”

"Can you describe the process of the deceased's death?" Cheng Feng asked again.

"I remember that at that time, the roast duck we ordered was just ready, and the chef of the sliced duck came over, turned the roast duck into slices, and then brought it to the table, we picked up the small cakes, rolled the duck meat and shredded green onions, and began to taste the roast duck.

While a few of us were discussing the taste of Peking duck, Ouyang Junxiong suddenly showed a pained expression, and I sat next to him, thinking he was choking, and went over to pat him on the back.

Who knew that he convulsed a few times, and then lay on the chair and did not move, and the whole process was more than a minute. I hurried to check his snort and found him dead. We called the hotel manager and called the police. ”

Cheng Feng instantly grasped the key details, and he opened his mouth to ask: "You mean, when the deceased was poisoned and died, you were eating Peking duck, did the deceased eat it at that time?" ”

"I ate it, and when the Peking duck was served, we all ate it." Xiao Jiaming replied.

Cheng Feng's eyes immediately looked at the plate of roast duck on the table, obviously he suspected that there was something wrong with this plate of roast duck.

He Jiahui next to him saw through Cheng Feng's thoughts, he leaned into Cheng Feng's ear and whispered: "The other seven people also ate the roast duck, if there is a problem with the roast duck, the other seven people will also be poisoned."

In the same way, the small cakes, shredded green onions, and dipping sauce were also eaten by other people, and now everyone else is fine, which means that there is no problem with the side dishes of the roast duck. ”

He Jiahui said, pointed to the turntable again, and continued: "There is a turntable on the round table, which can ensure that everyone can eat every dish, and every dish has traces of passivity, so it seems that there should be no poison in the dish, otherwise the deceased will not be the only one poisoned." ”

Cheng Feng nodded: "If there is no poison in the dish, then there is a high probability that there is a problem with the meal." However, this will have to wait for the forensic evidence to come and test before there can be a result. Let's go ahead and ask witnesses! ”

So the second witness was brought to Cheng Feng again. After Cheng Feng looked at his ID card, he knew that this person's name was Du Qiusheng, and according to Xiao Jiaming's introduction, Du Qiusheng was the organizer of this party.

Cheng Feng asked him about his relationship with the deceased as usual, and the deceased's performance when he was poisoned and died, which was consistent with what Xiao Jiaming introduced.

Then Cheng Feng asked again: "Mr. Du, I heard that you asked the deceased to come over for today's meal?" ”

"Strictly speaking, it's my turn to be treated." Du Qiusheng continued: "The five of us were good friends in middle school, and until now, for more than ten years, we will often have dinner together.

In the past, when I didn't have any money, I would go to the roadside food stalls and order three servings of fried pho or a few offal for five people. Now everyone's career is stable, and their income is much better, so they will come to this kind of restaurant to eat.

At our usual dinners, we take turns to sit in the village and take turns to entertain guests. This time it was my turn to have a treat, and I heard that this restaurant was newly opened, and the Peking duck was very authentic, so I asked everyone to come together. ”

Cheng Feng asked several other people at the same table who were eating at the same table, and the confessions they gave were exactly the same as the previous two.

At this time, the forensic team came to the scene with professional reagents and began to examine the source of the poison.

After a while, Gao An came over and reported: "We have inspected every dish on the table, including that plate of Peking duck, and found no cyanide. ”

"It's not a matter of the dishes." Cheng Feng nodded, and then said, "Please check the tableware again!" ”

After another moment, Gao An came over again and reported: "We have inspected all the tableware on the table, including bowls, soup spoons, dinner plates, bone plates, chopsticks, and teacups.

Cyanide residues were found on only three pieces of cutlery, one was a teacup used by the deceased, another was a chopstick used by the deceased, and the third was a soup spoon used by the deceased. ”

"Where?" This time it was Ho Ka-fai who was inquiring.

"The cyanide on the teacup was found on the outside of the teacup, and no cyanide was found in the tea. The cyanide on the chopsticks was found in the middle of the chopsticks, and no cyanide was found on the chopsticks. Cyanide was also found in the spoon only on the handle, not elsewhere. Gao An replied.

He Jiahui said: "The outside of the teacup, the middle of the chopsticks, and the handle of the soup spoon should all be in contact with the hand. This also shows that there is no problem with the cutlery, and the problem is the hands of the deceased. ”

"I'll immediately go and examine the hands of the deceased." Gao An said.

A few minutes later, Gao An came back again to report the test results: "We found cyanide residues on the hands of the deceased. ”

He Jiahui nodded slowly, and then said: "The deceased's hands were stained with cyanide, so the chopsticks, soup spoons and teacups he touched also had cyanide on them.

While eating, the deceased had been using the utensils and his hands were not directly touching the food, so the cyanide did not enter his mouth.

Until the Peking duck was served. To eat Peking duck, you need to use your hands to hold the cake, and at this time, the cyanide in his hand will be stained on the cake, and then he will eat it, and then he will die of poison. ”

Cheng Feng nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "That should rule out suicide, if it is suicide, I won't come to the party specifically, and I won't poison myself until I eat Peking duck."

As for accidentally getting cyanide, I think it can also be ruled out, and you will definitely wash your hands before eating, and if you get cyanide before eating, it will be washed off when you wash your hands.

Cyanide was not detected in the dishes and utensils on the table, indicating that the deceased could not have accidentally touched cyanide during the meal. In this way, the only explanation is that he killed! ”

Cheng Feng said, turned his head to look at He Jiahui, and then asked, "Sir He, I remember that you solved a poisoning case before, right?" ”
