Chapter 851: Chapter 851
Yin Chuan was naturally more anxious than Zhang Yang and Chen Yun—these two workers had disappeared, coincidentally proving a guilty conscience.
Unable to sit still, he said, "I know their home addresses. I’ll go take a look myself. You wait here for me."
Chen Yun looked at Zhang Yang, seeking his opinion.
Zhang Yang stood up immediately and said, "Let’s all go. We’re just a step away from the truth now, and we don’t want to wait around helplessly either."
Hearing this, Yin Chuan did not refuse and directly led Zhang Yang, Chen Yun, and Li Lei to an old apartment complex.
According to Yin Chuan, the two workers were both old bachelors and had rented a place here together.
Zhang Yang was not very interested in this detail. Upon reaching the residence, Yin Chuan directly contacted the landlord, who was quite agreeable anyway, given the number of people present, unafraid of any mishaps.
However, upon opening the door, a foul stench assailed them immediately.
Upon smelling it, Zhang Yang’s face changed instantly.
"This is the smell of a corpse beginning to decay."
Though the smell wasn’t overpoweringly strong, it was still nauseating.
Upon hearing it might be a corpse, the landlord’s face turned pale with fear, "Don’t scare me like that, this isn’t funny at all. Although the smell is a bit strong, if it were really a corpse, there shouldn’t only be this faint odor, right? This smells more like a garbage bin."
Over on the other side, Yin Chuan was also spooked by Zhang Yang’s words—surely it couldn’t be suicide, right?
Chen Yun and Li Lei chose to believe Zhang Yang unconditionally. Chen Yun asked, "Should we go in to have a look or call the police first?"
The landlord panicked, "Quickly go in and take a look, if they’re dead for real, I’ll call the police immediately."
"God forbid, please don’t let them die here, my worst fear."
Zhang Yang didn’t hesitate, "We’ll know if it’s real once we get inside."
Yin Chuan followed immediately, needing to witness it with his own eyes.
Soon, they reached one of the bedrooms and saw a person lying motionless on the bed.
Yin Chuan’s heart sank, "Three Fatty, get up! I’m the manager, I have something to ask you, get up quickly."
Yin Chuan couldn’t help but call out, but Zhang Yang said, "Stop calling. Didn’t you see the livor mortis on his face?"
Only after hearing Zhang Yang did Yin Chuan finally realize.
"Really dead? How could this happen?"
Zhang Yang said in a low voice, "Let’s check the other one."
"Yes, yes, God bless, please don’t die, please don’t die."
Yin Chuan clearly knew that if these two workers were really dead, it was too suspicious and could likely be related to his pharmaceutical factory.
With fatalities involved, his pharmaceutical factory would surely have to shut down for rectification, not to mention surviving this ordeal was uncertain.
Unfortunately, fear became reality; after Li Lei and Zhang Yang entered the other bedroom, there was a person lying on the bed there as well.
Also dead, Zhang Yang’s face didn’t look good either.
It was obvious, these two were silenced—who was it that would go so far, just targeting a beauty salon, to the point of silencing them?
Yin Chuan was so scared he fell to the ground, and outside, the landlord’s startled cries could be heard, presumably having also discovered Three Fatty’s body.
"You damn people, of all places to die, you had to die in my apartment. I’m finished; how is my place ever going to be rented or sold again?"
The landlord was truly heartbroken, but it was an irrefutable fact.
No one wanted them dead, except the person who took their lives.
Zhang Yang quickly confirmed the time of death—it was three days ago, right after the two had resigned, and then got murdered.
Even though Yin Chuan was the manager of a pharmaceutical factory, though still in shock, he was able to think rationally.
While calling the police, he asked Zhang Yang, "If they really died three days ago, do you think it’s related to what they did?"
"It must be; otherwise, why would they die without reason?"
Yin Chuan looked at Zhang Yang in fear, "Did you offend someone, that they’d go to such lengths to kill you? How much hatred must they harbor?"
Zhang Yang laughed at these words, "I was thinking the same thing. Poisoning is easy to investigate, and it clearly targets your pharmaceutical factory. Once the truth is revealed, it has little to do with our beauty salon."
Yin Chuan quickly shook his head, "Impossible, I haven’t offended anyone."
"Even if there was a conflict, it wouldn’t escalate to murder."
"Besides, if there was such deep enmity, shouldn’t they come after me directly? Why bother poisoning and then silencing?"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I think so too. No matter who bears deep hatred, they would directly act."
Yin Chuan was speechless; he initially wanted to test Zhang Yang. Proving that the culprit was an enemy of the beauty salon could exonerate his factory.
Unfortunately, Zhang Yang wasn’t buying it, which frustrated Yin Chuan—a mere youngster, yet so quick-witted.
Now with deaths in play, Yin Chuan was troubled. Even though these two had resigned, Maozi would still come over for questioning.
Zhang Yang told Yin Chuan, "Just tell the truth. They poisoned with malice, let Maozi investigate thoroughly. We might stumble upon unexpected clues."
Yin Chuan thought it through, "I hope so. But this might thoroughly enrage the true culprit. Aren’t you worried?"
Zhang Yang nodded, "Of course, that’s why we must catch the real murderer as soon as possible."
Yin Chuan shook his head helplessly; Zhang Yang wasn’t giving him any leeway.
Just then, Li Lei’s voice called out from outside, "Come take a look quick."
Zhang Yang’s expression changed, and he hurried outside, "What’s wrong?"
"It looks like they died from gas poisoning." Li Lei pointed at the leaking gas in the kitchen.
Zhang Yang was stunned; there was indeed a gas smell in the house, but it wasn’t very strong.
Zhang Yang observed carefully and finally realized that the killer might have tried to create the false appearance of gas poisoning.
But unfortunately, the gas tank was nearly empty from the start.
Zhang Yang shook his head—the gas tank was already empty.
So, though there was gas in the house, it was sparse.
But Zhang Yang didn’t mention it aloud. Yin Chuan had been trying to deflect blame earlier; though it was understandable that Yin Chuan didn’t want his factory’s interests damaged, his response seemed overly hasty.
Soon, a group of police officers came in.
Yin Chuan immediately revealed his identity and informed the officers of the victims being his workers and narrated clearly about their poisoning a week ago and resignation three days ago.
