Chapter 1179: This Was Only Her First Case, But She Was Going to Die Already
She was the most dashing girl he’d ever seen.
And she was so pretty and charming, too.
“Officer Nian and Professor Jiang, what are you doing here?” Yang Wenzhi walked into the building and said, “Are you still working on the case? Isn’t Zhao Yi the murderer?”
Before Nian Xi could answer, the lab manager responded to him with, “They’re looking for the registration book in your lab. Aren’t you from the same lab as Duan Yang? Where’s your registration book?”
“The registration book? Oh,” said Yan Wenzhi with a weird look in his eyes. “Yeah, it’s in our current lab.”
“Why didn’t you mention it to me before?” Nian Xu knitted her eyebrows, unwittingly showing a serious look in her eyes.
“I’m not a policeman. I didn’t know you needed it.” Yan Wenzhi gave a bitter smile and said, “Also, we’ve forgotten about it. Ever since Duan Yang died, you’ve visited the lab almost every day. We aren’t allowed to use the lab anymore, so the school arranged for the three of us to work in another lab. We brought the registration book there. We have to keep a daily record.”
“Alright, take us to get it.” Nian Xi handed the book in her hand to the lab manager.
“It’s on the top floor.” Yang Wenzhi guided Nian Xi and Jiang Yuning toward the elevator.
The building was almost empty at night. Their footsteps echoed through the hallway.
While walking, Nian Xi was thinking about the handwriting she had just noticed in the registration book. A few characters looked just like the characters in the love letter.
“Officer Nian, this is the lab.” Yang Wenzhi opened the door with a key.
The lab was small, but a few large devices were set in there. The curtains were drawn. Nian Xi walked in and took a quick look around the room.
“Here.” Yang Wenzhi strode to a table and took out a notebook from a drawer.
Nian Xi hurriedly took the book and opened it. The first thing she saw was the entry Duan Yang made on the day he died. According to that entry, Duan Yang did an experiment after Zhao Yi left, meaning he was still alive at that time.
The next person who signed in was Yang Wenzhi.
But why did Yang Wenzhi’s handwriting look so similar to the handwriting of the love letter?
Did Yang Wenzhi write Duan Yang the love letter?
Why hadn’t she heard about this before?
Crap...
As soon as that word popped into Nian Xi’s mind, the lights went off.
The curtains were still drawn, so the lab was in total darkness.
“Move!” Nian Xi automatically grabbed Jiang Yuning and rushed to the door.
“Be careful!”
She only managed to take a few steps before someone pounced on her and pressed her down. She felt as if she had fallen on a chair together with that person and that her head had hit something. The person underneath her seemed to have suffered more. He let out a muffled moan. All at once a loud noise was heard from where she and Jiang Yuning had been standing. A large device seemed to have crashed to the floor.
Then a stream of fire broke out. Within seconds, the tables were in flames and the door was sealed. Through the flames, Nian Xi saw Yang Wenzhi close the door swiftly. He had a perky smile on his face.
“Da*n you!” Nian Xi clenched her teeth.
All she could do at that moment was drag Jiang Yuning to the window.
Oh no! It was sealed from the outside by an anti-burglar screen.
Looking at the fire coming quickly at her and Jiang Yuning, Nian Xi felt despair.
This was only her first case. Was she about to die?
