At the crime scene.
"Boss, before you left, you told me to reinvestigate the scene.”
" What's wrong?" One of the agents looked as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight." After the investigation, I found it strange.”
This special agent was called Hu Li, nicknamed Fox.
He was a team leader of the 9th Secret Service of Division 8.
"Tell me."
Zhou Chen's eyes continued to scan the hall.
"There are three things that are very strange."
"First, we didn't find any fuel." Hu Li said simply. Second, the location of the ignition is unknown. Third, they didn't find any devices, appliances, or self-igniting materials that could cause an open fire.”
What did these three points mean?
There was no possibility of it burning, and there was no fuel. How did the fire start?
Science?
When Hu Li finished investigating the scene, he couldn't help but feel terrified.
Not only did he feel a chill down his spine, but even his scalp was numb.
He had never believed in ghosts and gods in the past, but he could not help but think about it.
Otherwise, you won't be able to explain that supernatural phenomenon!
You're from the State Security Bureau, what are you thinking about…Zhou Chen glanced at his subordinate.
A mouthful of saliva was stuck in his throat, and he did not know if he should spit it out.
Forget it, he was just a tool!
It's time to show off my real skills…Zhou Chen raised his head and looked at the ceiling.
To be precise, he was looking at the crystal chandelier in the middle of the ceiling.
What's so good about chandeliers?
When he first investigated the scene, Zhou Chen did not find any clues or suspicious points.
However, he did pay attention to the chandelier.
Why?
Because there were many crystal pendants on the chandelier.
There was a place where a crystal pendant was missing.
At that time, Zhou Chen did not pay much attention to it.
The chandelier seemed to have been around for some time. It was an old object that had probably existed since the renovation of the house.
Sometimes, due to aging, the light bulbs needed to be replaced. Because it was high up, it was inevitable that they would bump into each other.
Isn't it normal to knock off a pendant?
Besides, how could the case in front of him, or even the fire, be caused by a pendant?
Now, Zhou Chen did not think so.
It was precisely because they did not find any traces of the crime, nor did they find any suspicious points.
The lack of the crystal pendant seemed to be a problem.
"Check the surveillance footage again."
Zhou Chen instructed," Find a bigger monitor.”
A secret service agent brought over a 32-inch monitor, connected it to a tablet, and pulled up the surveillance footage of the crime scene.
He still remembered when he was watching the surveillance cameras.
Zhou Chen's gaze was attracted by the family of three and did not look elsewhere.
This time, his eyes were fixed on the surveillance screen, ignoring the crazy family of three.
After the family of three died tragically, they did not even blink.
Suddenly.
Zhou Chen saw an inconspicuous light on the surveillance screen.
It flashed by!
The surveillance camera paused and played five seconds in reverse, slowing down by eight times.
Six seconds later, Zhou Chen pressed pause again.
A light spot appeared on the screen.
If one did not look carefully, it was very likely that it would be ignored by the naked eye.
"Is that it?"
A strange smile appeared on Zhou Chen's face.
He raised his head and looked at the pendants on the chandelier.
The chandelier had six curved branches, and at the end of the curved branches were six lampshades.
Below each lampshade was a crystal chain.
At the end was a crystal pendant the size of a baby's fist.
One could see that a pendant was missing from one of the chains.
Here came the problem.
If it was the pendant that caused the fire, there was no trace left.
Then what kind of material was needed to make a crystal pendant?
Several flammable and explosive crystal materials instantly appeared in Zhou Chen's mind.
Some of these materials were natural, and some were flammable crystals that had been synthesized.
As long as these materials were burned, they would evaporate with the air and disappear without a trace.
Zhou Chen lowered his head and looked at the window in the room.
Because it was summer, the windows were all open, and the deformed shape could be seen.
However, it was indeed in an activated state.
Even if some inappropriate things were burned, it would still be fine.
It would also erase the traces due to the principle of air flow…
"Ladder." Zhou Chen ordered.
A secret service agent found a 'step stair'.
Climbing up the ladder, Zhou Chen stared at the pendant that was missing.
After observing for about ten seconds, his eyes gradually lit up.
"As expected, it's here!"
One had to know that most chandeliers were made of metal or carbon wire.
This was because the metal and carbon wires were very strong and would not be easily damaged.
But…
The other five chains were all made of carbon thread.
Only at the end of the chain where the pendant was missing, Zhou Chen found something very fun.
Oil wax!
How could wax appear on a chandelier?
Zhou Chen's expression gradually turned cold.
Little brother, you sure know how to play!
