âYou two know each other?â Hearing Kang Zhi, Xiao Rui and Mo Li turned to him at the same time. Seeing Yu Xuanâs familiar face, Kang Zhi nodded. âWhen Mo Li went to Huan Yu yesterday, I was waiting for her downstairs. Before Mo Li came down, Miss Yu Xuan came down and bumped into me, that was you, right? You look different without glasses.â Kang Zhi smiled kindly at Yu Xuan. Xiao Rui sighed.?If this kid isnât a police officer, heâd make a good matchmaker.
Mo Li glanced at Yu Xuan.?She has been to Huan Yu?
âOh yes! I was so sorry about yesterday. I wasnât paying attention back then. So sorry.â Yu Xuan lifted her head to look at Kang Zhi and then apologized profusely.
âWe have work to do.â Xiao Rui coughed and interrupted. Then Yu Xuan led them towards Dong Yunâs office.
âWhy⦠is this elevator so small? A booth can only fit so many people. Itâll be so troublesome when itâs high traffic hour.â Kang Zhi shrunk at the corner. If Mo Li was as outgoing as Kang Zhi, probably Jiang Yao wouldnât worry that she had no friend.
âThis elevator goes straight to the chairmanâs officer on the 13th floor. Itâs a private elevator, hence the size.â Perhaps she had imagined it but Mo Li felt like this Yu Xuan was extremely cautious, even the smile on her face seemed very fake. âSo this elevator can only move between 2 floors, the 1st floor and the 13th floor.â Yu Xian then she leaned down towards a small led screen on the panel. A robotic voice said, âCornea verification confirmed, elevator going up.â
Si Lin frowned. She asked. âI remember Chairman Dong is not that short, why is the screen so low?â
âOh, itâs because of the chairmanâs physical condition.â
âBut the victim has no physical deformity.â Mo Li who had not said anything corrected. Yu Xian was startled before she turned around with an awkward smile, âYes, I didnât mean it that way. Itâs because heâd get tired from walking so the screen is designed like this.â
While Mo Li planned to press for more details, they already arrived. When the elevator opened, everyone was shocked.
Kang Zhi lifted his head and took in the giant portrait that stretched from ceiling to the floor. âDong Yun⦠sure is confident in himself.â Kang Zhi really didnât want to comment on peopleâs appearance but it was hard to do when the person had a giant portrait of themselves placed before you. The man had a round face, and double chin. Kang Zhi wondered how Mo Li managed to get through the layers during the autopsy.
Xiao Rui looked around and asked, âThis is the only entrance?â
Yu Xuan thought to herself. âI suppose so. Since the elevator uses corneal verification, other than the chairman, only me and 2 other workers have access⦠I hope that wonât mean that Iâm a suspect.â
âHa ha, Miss Yu, donât worry. Miss Mo Li and our captain will investigate this case closely. They will not capture anyone willy-nilly.â
âWho are the others who have access?â Xiao Rui turned to Yu Xuan. Based on what she said, the killer had to be one of the 3. He only needed to find the most suspicious one and then arrest that person. That should be enough to satisfy Chief Li.
Xiao Rui didnât want to waste time on this case. For cases like this which involved religious influence, solving it wouldnât help his career. Furthermore, it would take up a lot of time and research if he was to delve deep into this case. Xiao Ruiâs face turned up with impatience.
âItâs Chairman Dongâs assistant, Andy and his driver, Mr. Zhao. Right, Mr. Zhao was the first to discover the body. They are at the office downstairs, do you need me to call them up?â
âSi Lin, go and check the camera records and then the elevator records.â
âOkay.â
âYouâll need to pass the corneal scan to use the elevator, so let me go with you!â Yu Xuan smiled at Si Lin as she moved towards her.
âWhy did you send her away? Do you suspect her?â Mo Li asked when Yu Xuan and Si Lin got further away.
âBefore we have any evidence, everyone is a suspect.â Xiao Rui glanced at Yu Xuan through the closing door. Kang Zhi didnât notice the conversation between Xiao Rui and Mo Li. He picked up the picture on the table.
