Chapter 44 I'm just a runner

The door is not locked?

Chen Chong felt his scalp tightening and suddenly felt a sense of vigilance.

The wind outside the window was blowing even harder, as if his hands were pushing his back and leaning towards the door.

Chen Chong's first reaction was to hold his cell phone and look behind him and above his head. After confirming that he didn't see any strange black shadows, he looked at the corridor when he came. Unfortunately, the flash of the cell phone was not a flashlight, and the beam was not strong. Before he could shine, he was swallowed by the darkness, and there was only the sound of sob wind.

Crunch...

The door bolt of the security door should have not been oiled for a long time. If you move a little, the iron piece will make a sound, causing goosebumps.

call.

Feeling his breathing, he slowly opened the door and stepped into the room with his body sideways.

Kakka...

He reached out and pressed the light switch on the wall twice, but there was no response. It should be that the property owner turned off the main switch here.

The company's layout is very simple. When you enter the door, you will find a large room. There is a large office desk in front of you. There are computers, telephones, vases and thick folders on the table.

This is Wang Mao’s office location during his lifetime.

The reason why he placed his desk directly opposite the door was mainly because the company was very small. In order to save expenses, he worked as a receptionist at the desk, which was a big deal.

On the front of the left is a sofa and a tea table. There is a set of tea sets on the coffee table. The water dispenser is next to the longest sofa, beside the window. Chen Chong once sat there discussing cooperation details and design plans with Wang Mao.

On the left side, right in front of the reception area, there is a large square table, surrounded by printing equipment of various styles.

In addition, there is a room on the right, which is the warehouse where items are stored, with a half-open door.

Strictly speaking, the overall light in the room is much better than that in the corridor, because the windows are not closed and the floors are not high, so neon lights from the outside can just shine in.

What is troublesome is that the tones of neon are mostly dark red, which makes the room feel a little cold. After all, there are no one here!

There are a lot of A4 papers scattered on the ground, and when they are rolled by the wind, they will make a rustling sound.

"According to the description of the security captain, when he discovered Wang Mao, the latter was lying on the table."

When I came to the desk, I held up my phone and looked at the desktop. Sure enough, I saw a lot of watermarks and swelling tea leaves near the chair.

"I remember Wang Mao did have the habit of drinking tea, but there are too many tea leaves..."

Chen Chong shook his head. Because he knew that Wang Mao did not die unexpectedly, everything would seem abnormal from his perspective. Just like a broken cup falling to the ground next to the chair, this was not the cup that Wang Mao usually used.

I looked at the coffee table on the other side, and the blue ceramic cup on it was.

"This was designed by the murderer on purpose, and the purpose was to forge the result of an unexpected death... But the question is, how did he do it?"

I picked up my phone, read the previous message again, and after confirming that there were no important words and sentences missing, I raised my hand and rubbed my eyebrows.

"First use medicine to make Wang Mao faint, then lift him to the desk and sit down, then deliberately break the water cup and stuff the tea into his nose? No, if the medicine is really taken, the police will not be able to detect it."

Chen Chong smiled bitterly, feeling like he was unable to start.

If it were a professional case-based expert, after mastering the situation of killing Wang Mao with the buttons, he would be able to quickly catch the murderer. But the problem is that Chen Chong is a chef after all, and he has no experience in this area at all.

To put it bluntly, he is just a supporting actor!

"What should I do..."

Chen Chong wandered around the room aimlessly, looking at the printer and the paper on the ground, hoping that like the horror apartment, the paper was full of clues left by Wang Mao.

Unfortunately, the paper is full of various design patterns, which is quite creative!

Woo woo...

A gust of cold wind blew out of the window, which was very fierce, blew away all the paper in his hand, just like someone standing in front of him and pulling away with force.

Chen Chong turned around and happened to see the curtains on both sides of the window being lifted up and then slowly fell down.

A few car whistles sounded on the road, and then a strong light shone in, making him subconsciously leave his sight. When he recovered, the curtains actually highlighted a human figure!

"Who is there!"

Chen Chong shouted loudly, raised his phone and shone towards the curtains, but found that the curtains were very flat and it was impossible to hide.

Just by this scare, cold sweat broke out in the palm of my palm.

Click.

Just at this moment, a clear sound of opening the door came into his ears. Chen Chong thought he had alarmed the security guard. He was about to find a place to hide it when he suddenly realized something and his muscles immediately collapsed.

The security door is a horizontal handle, and the sound of opening the door should be as straightforward as a stapler, but this sound is not. It is more like a circular handle that needs to be twisted!

"Oh, why are there anyone else coming in?"

A low and heavy man's voice sounded faintly, making Chen Chong shake like an electric shock, and almost couldn't hold his phone firmly. He turned his head and saw a figure standing at the door of the warehouse that was originally closed.

Chen Chong quickly took his cell phone and took a photo. He was a middle-aged man with a beard. He looked very honest and not tall. He was wearing a labor protection uniform of some years and a towel hung around his neck.

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

Both asked questions almost at the same time.

"I am the cleaning worker here, and I was cleaning up the things in the room just now." The middle-aged man looked at Chen Chong very vigilantly, "Who are you? You look so handsome."

"Oh, I've been here before to order a batch of flyers. I had made an appointment with Boss Wang to hand over yesterday, but no one answered the phone call, so I came over and saw what was going on. After all, this batch of flyers is very important to me, so I came in by myself." Chen Chong lit a cigarette and pretended to be calm.

"You don't know?" The middle-aged man took off the towel around his neck and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"What do you know?"

"This Boss Wang... is dead..." the middle-aged man sighed.

"What!?" Chen Chong's face was shocked, but he was thinking about how to escape.

"Oh..." The middle-aged man continued to sigh and said something wrong with what happened yesterday.

Chen Chong pretended to be disappointed, "What a great person, why did he leave like this..."

"Who said no?" The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and shook his head, picking up the paper scattered on the ground one by one, "Maybe this is fate."

There was a cleaning worker suddenly appearing in the room, which Chen Chong never expected. No wonder the security door was not locked.

"Then I'll find out if the flyer is done well. If I don't do it, I can only admit that I'm unlucky." Chen Chong had an idea and thought of a way to get out.

"Okay, you can look for it. Remember not to mess up the paper, so I can save some effort." The middle-aged man reminded him.

"OK."

Chen Chong didn't dare to delay, so he quickly took his cell phone and pretended to look for it.

‘Captain...it's raining outside. Should you take the clothes you hung on the rooftop yesterday for you to collect them...’

Suddenly, the sound of an intercom sounded. From the tone, it was the young security guard on the first floor.

"team leader?"

While Chen Chong's pupils shrank rapidly, the security door was locked.
