Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

Entering Gu Xiaochuan's office, only two words came to mind, impressive!

Luo Fei and Zhao Donglai were stunned.

Looking around, there were turquoise standing pots, pruned welcoming pines, arranged in a circle of various sizes in front, and on the side tea table was a whole row of exquisite tea sets and fine carved tea pets. The desk opposite was even wider, grand and imposing, making one marvel just by looking at it.

Is this the general manager's office? It's more lavish than some CEOs' private residences.

"Uh, hehe, officer, our CEO's tastes are a bit cultured, so the setup is somewhat exaggerated."

Hearing this excuse, Luo Fei didn't bother to respond and walked straight in.

A beautiful secretary, luxurious office, this guy sure enjoyed life while he was alive, but his work methods were constantly criticized.

Looking at it this way, the title of a ruthless rich man wasn't undeserved.

"How often does your CEO come to the company?"

"About half of the time here, the other half spent negotiating business outside, helping us with project connections, and sometimes traveling to other places for personnel recruitment."

"Hmm."

Luo Fei nodded slightly.

A lot of note paper was used on the desk, but the teacups and kettles seemed largely idle, indicating a focus on working, making him a diligent wealthy man.

"Regarding the rumor that your CEO committed suicide out of guilt, leaving a confession letter stored in his draft mailbox, what's all this about? And who discovered it first?"

"It was me and the CEO's assistant."

Secretary Chen answered softly from the side.

"Just after the CEO's incident, we went to his office to check things, but found his computer on, with a self-assessment letter about altering labor contracts, internal job adjustments for kickbacks, and not wanting to fulfill duties."

"Because of the email alert, we checked it out, thinking it might be related to the CEO's suicide, and reported it together."

After Secretary Chen finished speaking, she timidly glanced outside.

Gu Xiaochuan's death had a considerable impact on her.

More than just work implications, it left psychological scars. The CEO had cared for her daily, and now suddenly he was found hanged in the elevator, and in such a bizarre manner, so she felt extremely uneasy inside.

Although she hadn't done anything, that eerie feeling hit her deep inside.

"Don't be afraid."

Luo Fei suddenly said without preamble.

"I know what you're worried about, but I've already said very clearly, your CEO absolutely didn't commit suicide, even if there is a so-called confession letter, someone is orchestrating this from behind, trying to steer us."

"This was a murder!"

"If you have any other knowledge, you must tell me, because it can help us solve the case sooner, and if it has nothing to do with you, don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Secretary Chen calmed down a bit.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something.

"Officer, there is something our CEO never mentioned externally, always misunderstood by others, but it's true."

"What's that?"

Luo Fei and Zhao Donglai, who were observing, were immediately drawn over. This clue could be crucial and directly affect Gu Xiaochuan's death.

"Actually, after that dispatch worker had an accident, our CEO went to their home immediately, but nothing more was heard afterward."

"As for what they talked about, we're not sure, we only knew at the time that he told me and the assistant not to mention it outside."

Luo Fei instantly realized.

Such a vital clue could open a door for them.

If prior to this there was no communication or interaction between Gu Xiaochuan and the deceased's family, then there was a gap, making it impossible to link the two sides together.

After the incident, the two sides met, which doesn't rule out the possibility of the victim's family seeking revenge.

Though it can't be concluded openly yet, it is the most plausible theory so far.

"Okay, after we finish here today, we'll go check the injured worker's situation and investigate from there."

"Good!"

Luo Fei and Zhao Donglai headed out.

Currently, there were no useful clues in the entire office, and their thoughts and leads were blocked on the rooftop.

To find the key reason for the elevator death, they must dig out some clues from here, otherwise this trip would be futile.

Zhao Donglai looked around the surveillance and suddenly pointed towards the rooftop.

"Luo Fei, I think the secret is up there."

Luo Fei, who was still examining the elevator, was drawn over by this hint, realizing this was something he had overlooked.

"Look, this is the surveillance blind spot, meaning if the killer didn't enter Gu Xiaochuan's office, they must have gone to the rooftop."

"Makes sense."

Recently, the two walked up together, and after crossing the rooftop fence, saw the elevator shaft cover at the top, and both thought of the issue at hand.

The two approached and were stunned right away.

"Just as expected, someone had opened the lid, the bolts below were loosened, and the edge was pried open. It should've been someone forcefully dismantling it. I remember that before Gu Xiaochuan entered the elevator, there was a group of repair workers here."

"Yes, indeed, next we should investigate them."
