Case analysis meeting.
The three sat together, brows furrowed, waiting for someone.
Wu Chuang!
"First, we need to figure out if this letter was actually written by Yue Bo." This was the first question Lü Qingqing and the others needed to clarify.
If the letter was written by Yue Bo, then Yue Bo was attempting to conceal the fact that Wen Feixue was dead, and he was likely the murderer.
If it wasn't written by Yue Bo, it meant that Yue Bo had met with misfortune, as the murderer was certain the letter would not be exposed.
Before long, Wu Chuang arrived, followed by Wen Fei.
When Wen Fei received the letter, he had already stated that it didn't seem like it came from his brother-in-law, because his brother-in-law had no habit of writing letters. Moreover, Yue Bo always called him "Fei Di" or "Di", never "Di Di".
Of course, people's speaking habits and writing habits can differ. To have clear evidence that the letter was not from Yue Bo, Wu Chuang brought Yue Bo's sales progress report.
The sales progress report, also known as Yue Bo's weekly work log, was entirely in Yue Bo's handwriting.
When the two were compared, the handwriting differences were indeed significant.
After seeing the two off, Lü Qingqing and the other two resumed their discussion.
Since the letter was not written by Yue Bo, the person who could place it on Wen Fei's windowsill must be someone they knew.
Furthermore, the letter mentioned "the hospital incident," which clearly referred to the insulin loss incident. In other words, this person was also privy to the hospital theft.
Therefore, Lü Qingqing's guess was correct: the loss of insulin was definitely related to Yue Bo's disappearance and Wen Feixue's death.
"Keep a close eye on Cheng Qian. He is currently the prime suspect. Also, find a way to obtain his handwriting and that of people around him," Ouyang Wen said.
The analysis meeting went very smoothly, so Lü Qingqing returned home early.
"Sis..."
Seeing Lü Duobao, Lü Qingqing was so happy she wanted to hug him. This kid had a better life and was getting heavier.
Her strained effort made Lü Duobao laugh, "Brother-in-law can lift me with one hand, Sis is too weak."
Angered, Lü Qingqing didn't want to talk to him. Looking at the quiet room, Lü Qingqing found it strange, "Your brother-in-law isn't back yet?"
"No. He's been coming back very late these past few days, making me sort out dinner by myself." Lü Duobao seized the opportunity to complain, "Sis, does brother-in-law have a new girlfriend outside?"
"How dare he!" Lü Qingqing put on a fierce expression, "Your brother-in-law has been busy lately, working on a case."
Lü Qingqing naturally didn't believe that Hu Jia had a new girlfriend, but she also found it strange. In recent days, due to the case, she had never gotten off work on time. Unexpectedly, she came back early today and found an "empty" scene.
Lü Qingqing had a quick meal and then lay on the sofa to read. But for some reason, the characters couldn't hold Lü Qingqing's attention today. The clock ticked twice, and Lü Qingqing had only flipped through less than ten pages.
Finally, the lock clicked open.
"You're back?" Lü Qingqing suddenly spoke, startling Hu Jia.
"Why are you here?" Hu Jia had figured Lü Qingqing wasn't off work yet.
"Can't I be here?" Lü Qingqing narrowed her eyes, a half-smile on her face.
Uh...
"Yes, why not."
Hu Jia's cautious demeanor gave Lü Qingqing a headache. "Go on, where were you?"
Hu Jia patted his stomach, "I was hungry, so I went out for a bowl of noodles."
Lü Qingqing sneered, did a bowl of noodles take two hours?
Seeing that Lü Qingqing wasn't responding to his words, Hu Jia realized his lie wasn't very clever. He went out for noodles himself and left his brother-in-law to fend for himself at home?
"Well, I went to see someone."
"See whom?"
Lü Qingqing knew that this time Hu Jia was telling the truth, but she was very curious about who it was that had such magic over Hu Jia that he had to go see them every night.
"Yuxin, Sister Yuxin." Hu Jia's voice noticeably lowered when he said this name.
Huh?
Then this is a big problem.
Going to see a woman, and not daring to say her name openly?
Could it be some seductive vixen?
"Alright, Hu Jia!" Lü Qingqing slammed the armrest of the sofa and stood up abruptly, "How many days into this week is it, and you've already met other women?"
Hu Jia was startled by her words, "Hey! Lü Qingqing, be responsible for what you say. What other woman? That's Liu Yuxin, Sister Yuxin!"
Seeing Hu Jia's agitated reaction, even seeming to defend the other person, anger surged in Lü Qingqing's heart. She took a deep breath, trying to suppress her voice, "Who is Liu Yuxin? How do you know her? Tell me!"
Hu Jia blinked a couple of times, a look of surprise on his face, "You don't know Liu Yuxin?"
Now it was Lü Qingqing's turn to blink, "Why, should I?"
"My sister-in-law, no, ex-sister-in-law."
Ah?
Lü Qingqing's mind whirled for a good few seconds before she exclaimed, "Ouyang Wen's ex-wife?"
...
He felt the woman beside him kept glancing at him, making him feel a bit uncomfortable all over.
Ouyang Wen looked at his clothes, then at his pants. Was there something wrong?
"Um, what's wrong with you today?" Ouyang Wen asked Lü Qingqing.
Lü Qingqing chuckled, "Nothing."
With that, she held her head high, chest out, and strode forward.
This made Ouyang Wen even more bewildered.
According to Lü Qingqing's plan, everyone at the hospital had kept Yue Bo's disappearance confidential, with the sole purpose of not alerting the suspect.
However, just now, Wu Chuang had found them, saying that someone had been calling to look for Yue Bo for the past two days, but as soon as he was asked to leave a name, he would hang up.
Wu Chuang felt something was amiss and hoped Lü Qingqing and the others could trace the call.
And so, Lü Qingqing and the others had just received the call information from the operator. The operator stated that the call originated from Chengdu.
Chengdu?
The place Yue Bo lied about going on a business trip to?
This forced Lü Qingqing to raise her guard.
Logically speaking, these repeated calls clearly indicated an urgent matter, but the caller's refusal to leave any contact information clearly showed they didn't want anyone else to know who they were.
"Do you think this person might be the buyer of the insulin?" Ouyang Wen immediately thought of a possibility. They immediately checked the times Yue Bo extracted insulin from the warehouse and his attendance records. They discovered that every time Yue Bo extracted insulin, he would take leave from work.
By checking the transfer records from the machine room, they found that a call from Chengdu would always come in the day before Yue Bo extracted insulin.
The most recent one was in February.
On February 19th, a call from Chengdu was transferred to the asset department. On the 20th, Yue Bo took a box of insulin from the warehouse. On the 22nd, he took leave to go home for the Lantern Festival.
Keep in mind that the Spring Festival that year was on February 9th, and they had just had a family reunion. Why would he need to go home again?
It didn't add up!
"So, the insulin was indeed stolen and resold by Yue Bo," Lü Qingqing suddenly understood. No wonder they couldn't find the whereabouts of the insulin in Chongqing; it was because Yue Bo had never supplied the stolen insulin to the Chongqing market.
This also explained why Wen Feixue said Yue Bo often went on business trips to Chengdu.
It turned out that the business trips were a pretense; the actual purpose was to offload the stolen goods.
"It seems we have to go to Chengdu," Lü Qingqing said.
