When the three of them were confused in the living room, Chen Yi had already quickly gone up to the second floor, and when passing by, he did not forget to help Ding Zi, who was still in shock.

At this moment, Ding Zi's face was slightly pale, and she was obviously frightened.

"Are you okay?"

Chen Yi asked.

Ding Zi gasped for air, pointed to the door of the room where Wang Lihua was and said: "Li... Lihua, he..."

Chen Yi interrupted: "I know, leave this to me, you go down first to calm down."

"Can I do it myself? Is it okay?"

He was really worried that the other party's feet would weaken and he would fall down the stairs.

Thinking of Detective Chen Yi's identity, Ding Zi felt slightly relieved, shook her head and said, "No problem..."

Seeing this, Chen Yi ignored Ding Zi and strode into the room.

An ordinary bedroom has no private bathroom and only a large bed and a wardrobe.

There is also a desk placed by the window.

Wang Lihua lay quietly on the bed, his eyes closed and his face pale.

Chen Yi came over, raised his hand to test his breathing, and frowned.

Feel the softness of the muscles again, they are already stiff and the temperature has disappeared.

There was no accident. If he died, calling an ambulance would be meaningless.

Afterwards, Chen Yi squeezed the body from head to toe, and rigor mortis had spread to the whole body.

This means that Wang Lihua's death time has exceeded four hours.

"Four hours..."

Chen Yi recalled the situation at that time, which was almost two hours after Ding Zi helped Wang Lihua back to the room.

Ding Zi is the only one who can get in close contact with Wang Lihua.

However, the two of them were basically under his sight the whole time, and the only time they were alone together was only for a few minutes.

Killing someone in a few minutes is unlikely for a girl.

Upstairs and downstairs, killing a chicken would make a scene, let alone killing a person.

Chen Yi was sure that there was absolutely no abnormal noise upstairs during this period.

After a moment of silence, he turned to look at the trash can at his feet. There was an empty mineral water bottle in it.

In my impression, it was Xu Can who handed it to Ding Zi.

Poisoned?

With this idea in mind, Chen Yi took a close look at Wang Lihua's face. There seemed to be no signs of poisoning, he was very peaceful, and there was no muscle distortion.

I went up and smelled it, but there was no pungent smell.

The specific situation requires toxicological testing.

The only suspicion is that there are dark red spots around the mouth and cheeks.

It's a bit like mechanical suffocation, but without any struggle or pain, let alone contusion.

"strangeness."

Chen Yi straightened up, took out his cell phone and dialed Zhou Yebin's number.

"Hello? Team Zhou."

Zhou Yebin: "Chen Yi, why did you remember to call me on a weekend night?"

Chen Yi: "Team Zhou, someone is dead. Bring someone over quickly. The address will be sent to your mobile phone."

Zhou Yebin was shocked: "What did you say?! Who died?!"

Chen Yi: "A friend of mine died suddenly while a few people were drinking at a party."

Zhou Yebin's voice became solemn: "Homicide?"

This question made Chen Yi hesitate: "We don't know yet. Further autopsy is needed."

"I can only say... there is a possibility of accidental homicide."

Zhou Yebin: "How many people are there?"

Chen Yi: "Counting me six... Oh, by the way, there is also a chef left."

Zhou Yebin: "The chef's contact information has been sent to my mobile phone. You must protect the scene and no one can leave. I will be there soon!!"

Chen Yi: "Okay."

The phone hangs up.

He held his cell phone and stared at the body on the bed for a while, then turned and left.

living room.

Xu Can and the four of them sat here quietly, each with their heads lowered and saying nothing.

There was surprise and uncertainty on everyone's face.

Seeing Chen Yi coming downstairs, Xu Can quickly asked: "How is it? Is he... okay?"

Death is too far away for them, and they subconsciously don't want to believe it.

Chen Yi came closer, glanced at the four people, and said: "The person is dead."

These three simple and easy-to-understand words made the four people present change their expressions after being stunned for a second.

"How...how could it be possible?!"

Xu Can's body softened and he collapsed on the sofa.

After getting the definite answer, Ding Zi turned pale with fright and covered her mouth tightly. Her eyes showed fear and she burst into tears.

Her boyfriend, who she had been with day and night, was fine a few hours ago, and suddenly died a few hours later, which she simply couldn't accept.

If she hadn't covered her mouth, she might have screamed again.

Jiang Fanlei and Yuan Lihao also couldn't help but swallowed after being extremely shocked.

"No way..." Jiang Fanlei murmured to himself.

Chen Yi sat down and continued to stare at the four people, including Jiang Fanlei.

"Then...then call the police!"

After a moment, Yuan Lihao seemed to have thought of something and spoke quickly.

Chen Yi: "The Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau has been notified and will be here soon."

"Xu Can, give me the chef's contact information."

Yuan Lihao seemed to realize the identity of the other detective and fell silent.

Xu Can: "Chef? Oh oh... OK."

He quickly took out his cell phone.

The huge living room became silent.

"I...can't we leave?"

After a long time, Jiang Fanlei looked at Chen Yi quietly and asked weakly.

Chen Yi glanced at him sideways: "What do you think?"

As long as Wang Lihua died of homicide, everyone present was a suspect, including himself.

Still want to leave?

Jiang Fanlei hesitated and subconsciously wanted to get a drink to calm down his shock, but found that the bottle was empty, so he had no choice but to give up.

After all, it was the weekend, and it would take some time for Zhou Yebin to assemble the team. More than an hour later, police sirens sounded outside.

Chen Yi stood up and opened the door of the villa.

Zhou Yebin, Zhuo Yun and others arrived, and the forensic doctors were also ready.

"Team Zhou."

Chen Yi nodded and looked at Fang Shuyu.

Fang Shuyu didn't know how she was feeling now. What about the gathering of friends she had promised? Why are people still dead?

Zhou Yebin looked serious and asked directly: "Where is the body?"

Chen Yi pointed upstairs: "Second floor, turn left and take the second room."

Zhou Yebin waved his hand.

Forensic doctors and technicians walked in quickly and rushed to the second floor.

Zhou Yebin and Zhuo Yun walked at the end, and the former whispered: "What's going on?"

Chen Yi shook his head: "I don't know. Anyway, he died. The time of death was no more than six hours."

Zhou Yebin was slightly silent and led people to the living room.

Several police officers stepped forward and stood nearby, with a vague tendency to surround them.

Xu Can and others had never seen such a battle before, and they were so frightened that they did not dare to breathe.

"What was the deceased's name?" he asked.

Chen Yi: "Wang Lihua."

Zhou Yebin looked at the four people sitting in front of him with their heads bowed in silence and said, "Are these all acquaintances of the deceased?"

Chen Yi nodded: "Yes, including me."

Zhou Yebin: "Who was the first to discover the deceased?"

Hearing this, Ding Zi trembled and raised her hand cautiously: "I...I discovered it."

Zhou Yebin looked over: "Who was the last person to come into contact with the deceased?"

The two questions made Ding Zi's expression stiffen, and she said with a grimace: "It's still me..."

Zhou Yebin: "Huh?"

Chen Yi explained: "Her name is Ding Zi, Wang Lihua's girlfriend."

"Wang Lihua drank too much before, so she helped him go upstairs. It took about five minutes."

"A few hours later, when I tried to wake up Wang Lihua again, I found that he was already dead."

Zhou Yebin was silent for a while, then waved his hand and said: "Come up with me, others don't move."

If Wang Lihua died of homicide, strictly speaking everyone present would be suspected, including Chen Yi.

However, Zhou Yebin obviously will not regard Chen Yi as the murderer, at least not for the time being.
