My husband must have held a grudge against Guan Lin who snatched my love away from me. Maybe he pretended to agree to the divorce and made an appointment with Guan Lin so that he could kill me. This terrible idea must be considered, because it is very suspicious for him to suddenly become a saint and a gentleman, not to mention that he has been to a health pharmacy and may have obtained poison. Could he want to use poison to kill me? What about Guan Lin?
Hong Limin's doubts and uneasiness gradually spread. Doubts and uneasiness are boundless. Once they arise, they will grow bigger and bigger like a snowball.
However, Hong Limin didn't want to give up the opportunity to meet her husband tomorrow, because she didn't like to escape reality. At least she wanted to meet her husband again to solve the divorce problem face to face. This was also the best way to solve the problem, as long as she was careful. .
The next day, at Tajima's house, the three of them sat down around the table thoughtfully, and the stove in the corner of the room was burning brightly. A smile broke out on Guan Lin's face.
Tajima also smiled, but his smile was a little forced. Hong Limin, on the other hand, looked pale and seemed a little nervous, sitting silently.
A glass was placed in front of the three of them, filled with amber wine.
"Then-" Tajima said. "First of all, a toast to our breakup as a couple."
As if attracted by Tajima's voice, Guan Lin and Hong Limin also picked up their wine glasses.
"Cheers!" Tajima said. The three glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound, and then were brought to the mouth.
Soon, the woman grabbed her throat and fell from the chair, and then one of the men fell to the floor with a slight groan. This all happened in a split second.
The remaining man held the wine glass and looked down at the two bodies lying motionless on the floor. Both men died.
He walked to the corner of the room and picked up the phone. Sweat appeared on his forehead and his face was very pale.
"Police?" the man said. "Please come immediately. Two people are dead. The location is..."
From the time the report was received to the time the patrol car arrived at Tajima's house, about fifteen minutes passed. Although it was later learned that these fifteen minutes had some significance, no one noticed it at the time.
The first to arrive were two young policemen. They entered Tajima's house with suspicion. When they saw the two bodies, they quickly informed the criminal investigation detachment.
Ten minutes later, Tian Chunda, the captain of the criminal investigation detachment, led the criminal police and forensic investigators into Tajima's house.
As soon as Tian Cunda entered the living room, he looked at the bodies of the man and woman with a calm expression. He immediately knew that they died of poisoning. Since there were no external injuries on the body, it seemed that it was probably potassium cyanate poisoning.
Tian Chunda moved his gaze from the corpse to the man standing in the corner of the room.
"Were you the one who called the police?"
"Yes."
"May I have your name?"
"Guan Lin..."
"Do you know why this happened?"
"Know."
After Tian Chunda asked the other party to sit down on the chair, he said: "Then, can you please tell me again?"
"The deceased lying in that place are..." Guan Lin took a sip of saliva and continued: "The painter Tajima and his wife Hong Limin."
Guan Lin looked at the two corpses with sad eyes.
"Those two are my friends."
"Then what?" Tian Chunda urged.
Guan Lin sighed softly, his face very pale.
"Three years ago, Tajima and Hong Limin got married out of love. However, Tajima recently got into another relationship. When Hong Limin found out about this, she thought Tajima had betrayed her. She didn't know what to do, so she came to me for discussion. "
"Of course I advised them to reconcile, but after I got close to her, I fell in love with her unknowingly. Even though she was abandoned by her husband, she accepted my love and planned to break up with her husband and stay with me."
"With this, won't there be a new triangle relationship?" Tian Chunta said lightly.
"Oh! Yes, but because I was afraid that Tajima would misunderstand that I was stealing love and snatching Hong Limin from his hands, which would cause his displeasure, I told him the truth of the matter so that he could understand."
"So, does he understand?"
"Tajima said he understood, and said that in order to avoid any disputes in the future, he asked me if the three of us could get together for a drink so that we could get together and relax. Hong Limin and I have no objection."
"So, you guys got together for a toast?"
"Yes. But when I brought the wine glass to my mouth, I smelled a strange smell, so I didn't drink it. Tajima and Hong Limin drank the wine in one gulp and poured it down quickly."
Tian Chunda turned his attention to the table. Among the three wine glasses, only one was full.
"Now, this is what happened."
Tian Chunda drew his attention back to Guan Lin and continued: "Although Tajima said he agreed to divorce his wife, he was unwilling in his heart. In order not to let others take away his wife, he died. To resolve this triangle..."
"Yes, I think so too."
"So, do you think Tajima killed his wife and then committed suicide?" Tian Cunda asked, looking at Guan Lin's face.
"Maybe you can say that." Guan Lin nodded with a sad expression and said, "Unfortunately, I was also involved in this case."
"Kill someone and then commit suicide?" Tian Chunda muttered to himself and looked at the body again.
"But..." Tian Chunda looked at Guan Lin and said. "The possibility of another idea is also very high. I wonder if you have thought of it?"
"What's up?"
"It's simple, kill someone."
"kill?"
"Yes. We must consider it from all aspects, because this is a murder case." Tian Cunda said with a wry smile.
"But, you said killing..." Guan Lin said looking a little embarrassed. "You don't think I killed these two people, do you?"
"No, I didn't say you were the murderer. I just thought there was a possibility. Because of this possibility, we had to investigate. I think you also know that your position is very ambiguous. Mr. and Mrs. Tajima are dead. , even if you are killed, you can’t come forward to testify, so I have no choice but to investigate you.”
"I understand this." Guan Lin nodded and said. "I am very clear about my position. It is natural to be suspected of being a murderer. However, I did not kill anyone."
"Although I think so too, for the sake of caution, you should accept our investigation!"
Tian Chunda asked the young detective to take Guan Lin away, and Guan Lin left the room calmly.
Tian Chunda walked to the forensic doctor who was investigating the body.
"Do you know the correct time of death?" Tian Chunda asked the forensic doctor.
After the forensic doctor said "Oh", he opened his eyes wide and said: "If it is a murder, Guan Lin is the murderer?"
"Yes."
