Xu Bai was confused when he heard An Ya’s words.

What the hell?

None of my business.

From three to four in the morning, I was alone at home. I didn’t go anywhere. How could I have come over to kill Practitioner Huang?

Furthermore…

He was rich. He had just borrowed 100,000 yuan from Gao Lan. It wasn’t like he didn’t have money. How could he do such a thing?

Xu Bai was speechless in his heart. He was enjoying the show. In the end, all of a sudden, he accidentally realized that he had become an actor in the show.

Besides…

Your suspicion doesn’t have any evidence at all.

Xu Bai could not help but shake his head.

An Ya caught Xu Bai shaking his head slightly and thought of Xu Bails achievements two years ago. “Agent Xu, what do you think?”

If they were talking about the 38th Precinct…

That’s not right.

In the entire Feng City Police Department, if Xu Bai dared to say that he was second, no one would dare to claim to be first.

If it weren’t for the fact that Xu Bai only wanted to stay in the 38th Precinct, the police would have already promoted Xu Bai and transferred him to the General Administration to be in charge of the major cases in the city.

so…

Even An Ya had to admit that if anyone could solve this case as quickly as possible, it would be Xu Bai.

Xu Bai raised his head and looked at An Ya, who was looking at him. He said calmly, “Team Leader An’s suspicion can only mean that this customer is possible. However, what about the motive? According to Team Leader An, this customer asked Practitioner Huang for this Dragon Heart Herb. That’s all.”

An Ya hesitated for a moment and nodded. “You’re right. However, this customer is the most suspicious. What do you think?”

Xu Bai nodded. “If Practitioner Huang was murdered, it’s true that this customer is a suspect.”

F*ck!

Xu Bai agreed with An Ya as he cursed in his heart.

He had just changed the direction of the investigation of the Night Rose nightclub to the investigation of the Night Rose nightclub itself. It was not easy for him to make everyone stop paying attention to Sun Qinya’s death.

Right now?

Again.

Moreover, this case was different from the Night Rose nightclub case because, before this, Xu Bai had no direct contact with the Night Rose nightclub.

Therefore, even if the Night Rose nightclub case was transferred to Homeland Security, he wasn’t afraid that Homeland Security would find out about it.

But this case?

When he came over to ask, he did not hide anything and directly showed his cards. If he really wanted to investigate this customer, he would not be able to escape.

Why don’t I just say that the customer is me?

Xu Bai thought to himself.

The next second.

No way!

Xu Bai immediately rejected this idea.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to. It wasn’t that he couldn’t. It was just that he didn’t know what would happen if he said it now. Xu Bai hated it when things went out of his control.

Still…

He should indeed make some preparations for his showdown.

Xu Bai thought to himself.

An Ya looked at Xu Bai, who didn’t say a word after he finished speaking. She thought that he was thinking about this case, so she frowned and said, “Agent Xu, are you confident that you can solve this case within 48 hours?”

Xu Bai returned to his senses and looked at An Ya. “Team Leader An, are you ordering me around?”

An Ya shook her head.

“No, I’m just reminding you that if you can, this case better be solved within forty-eight hours.”

“Why?”

“The Dragon Heart Herb is a rare herb. Furthermore, its storage conditions are extremely harsh. If it’s stored for more than 48 hours, the active ingredient of the Dragon Heart Herb will disappear.”

“You think so?”

“That’s why I said that the person who hoped to take the Dragon Heart Herb was that customer. If the suspect wasn’t that customer and it was a suspect who didn’t know anything about it, it would be troublesome.”

Xu Bai frowned. “Since Old Master Su can get a Dragon Heart Herb, it should be easy to get another one, right?”

If he remembered correctly, Su Meng had told him at the hospital that the Dragon Heart Herb was dug up by her grandfather in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

However, at that time, Xu Bai did not associate Old Master Su with this Practitioner Huang. After all, Xu Bai did not know that the old friend that Practitioner Huang mentioned was Old Master Su.

An Ya shook her head and said, “Old Master Su only has this Dragon Heart Herb left. Moreover, we have to go to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to collect the Dragon Heart Herb. Inside…”

Now, the Hundred Thousand Mountains that spanned the entire Federation from the south to the north had already been occupied by the demon race. Moreover, according to the Federation’s agreement, the demon race would not easily enter the city. At the same time, they would also give the demon race the right to rule the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

so…

Even for her, it was very difficult to return to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to collect the Dragon Heart Herb.

After all…

An Ya shook her head. “It’s hard.”

Xu Bai nodded and did not ask further.

He understood.

He only had 48 hours to solve this case. Otherwise, if the Dragon Heart Herb’s medicinal properties disappeared, he wouldn’t be able to complete the Pill Refinement Mission.

“Mengmeng.”

” …Master.”

“Tell the patrol officers to bring the surveillance data back to the station.”

“Okay.”

Su Meng nodded, turned around, and walked downstairs.

Xu Bai looked at An Ya and said, “I don’t like others interfering in my case, especially the internal affairs bureau. Besides, I can’t guarantee that I can solve the case in 48 hours. Even if I can, I can’t guarantee that the Dragon Heart Herb is still active.”

An Ya nodded. “I understand.”

Xu Bai asked, “Team Leader An, is there anything else I need to know?”

An Ya shook her head. “No.”

She did not tell Xu Bai the real reason why she was there.

Because she didn’t think it was necessary.

If the Dragon Heart Herb was found, she could explain it. However, if the Dragon Heart Herb was not found, there was not much difference between saying it and saying it after the fact.

Xu Bai glanced at An Ya and nodded. He turned around and walked downstairs.

He wanted to see which damn thief had stolen his Dragon Heart Herb.

Just you wait. This time, the cold-faced tiger will let go. After I catch you, I will let you know what true cruelty is.

If he dared to steal now, would he dare to kill next?

Impossible.

He had to deliver a heavy blow!

38th Precinct.

At the forensics office.

After Xu Bai asked Su Meng to bring the surveillance video back to Chen Shan, he took the elevator to the forensics office on the first floor. It seemed that every branch’s forensics office was in the basement.

There was no exception.

Could it be because the basement level was closer to Earth?

Xu Bai thought to himself. He had found the forensic doctor, Old Xu, who had returned earlier than them and was already dressed neatly.

“Old xu.”

“I’m busy.”

Xu Bai smiled and walked straight to the dissection table. He glanced at the person lying on the dissection table. At this moment, the person in question had already been opened. “How is it? Are there any results?”

Xu Bai smiled and walked straight to the dissection table. He glanced at the person lying on the dissection table. At this moment, the person in question had alread been opened. “How is it? Are there anv results?”

Xu Bai glanced at it and raised his eyebrows. “This looks much better than the parts of the young man in his twenties last time.”

The forensic doctor, Old Xu, glanced at Xu Bai and gestured to his assistant. He took off his gloves and walked towards his desk. “How old is he this year?”

Xu Bai followed him. “Seventy-two.”

The old TCM practitioner was called Huang Yangsheng. He was 72 years old.

When Xu Bai read the message, he was also shocked. After all, this old TCM practitioner looked like he was at most in his forties.

When the forensic doctor, Old Xu, heard this, he also looked at Xu Bai in surprise.

“Seventy-two years old?”

“Yes, why?”

“He’s really good at maintaining his health.”

“What?”

“His parts are indeed only in their forties. If he didn’t die, I wouldn’t be surprised if he lived for another sixty years.”

“Wouldn’t that be 130?”

“That’s right.”

Old Xu pulled out a chair and sat down. He sighed and shook his head. “What a pity.”

Xu Bai nodded.

It was indeed a pity.

That’s not right.

Xu Bai shook his head and looked at Old Xu. “Old Xu, it’s useless to pity him. He’s already dead. What about the cause of death? Have you found out?”

Old Xu took off his glasses and looked at Xu Bai. “Do you want to hear the results of the forensic examination, or do you want to hear the results of my examination?”

Xu Bai blinked.

“Aren’t you a forensic doctor?”

“Wrong!”

Old Xu’s expression was extremely serious. He looked at Xu Bai and said in a deep voice, “Don’t compare this group of forensic doctors outside to me. They’re not worthy. I’m a traditional coroner.”

Xu Bai looked at him with admiration. “I’m sorry. I was wrong.”

Old Xu looked at Xu Bail s humble expression and nodded. His expression softened a little as he stood up and led Xu Bai towards the old TCM practitioner on the autopsy table. He said, “If it were other forensic doctors, they would tell you that the deceased died from a heart attack.”

Xu Bai looked at Old Xu.

“Then what does Coroner Xu think?”

“He was killed.”

Old Xu said, “Moreover, it’s a very smart type of homicide. If I didn’t often read the Traditional Coroners’ Treasure Book passed down from my ancestors, I’m afraid I would have been muddled too.’

Muddled?

Xu Bai opened his mouth and wanted to say, “It’s not appropriate to describe it as muddled.”

But…

He thought for a moment and chose to shut up.

Old Xu put on his gloves and patched up the old TCM practitioner’s skin. He grabbed a magnifying glass and waved at Xu Bai. “Come and take a look.”

Xu Bai walked over and looked at the tiny pinhole that could only be seen under magnification. He raised his eyebrows. “Pinhole?”

Old Xu nodded and moved the magnifying glass to the bright red heart that was no longer beating. “Look at it. Is there the same needle hole on it?”

Xu Bai looked over.

Indeed.
