C78 (1/2)

He said that he would wait, but another twenty minutes passed. Wei Shijie was still busy working non-stop in front of the computer while Liao Mengfann and I sat at the conference table, nonstop flipping through the case file.

There was so little in the file that I didn't even find the autopsy report on the dead man. I looked at the date on my phone. Today is May 6th. Even if the local police didn't do anything, they wouldn't have gotten an autopsy report in four days, right?

I smacked the table in depression, ”I don't know how these people did it, but it's been a few days and they haven't even gotten an autopsy report. The Time of Death was still described by the person who reported it, is there a mistake?”

”Maybe the local police are in trouble?” Liao Mengfann stroked her hair to calm me down …

”Difficult part?” I threw these useless reports to the side and said to her, ”Isn't it the rich who are causing trouble? They all went to hunt for bugs. I really don't understand, just who is this Public Security Bureau opened for?”

”Brother Little Chuan, you are wrong to say that!” Just then, Wei Shijie turned around, and as he blindly typed, he laughed at me, ”Actually, the local police are quite helpless about this. Tell me, why do you think that running away with so many spiders would cause so much panic? It was fine if he climbed onto the flowers and plants, but if he crawled into the children's beds in the middle of the night and bit them, how much of an impact would the future of the motherland be? If you were to bite our future leader to death, it would be f * cking stupid! ”

Wei Shijie scratched his greasy hair, and continued: ”That's why I feel like these police officers are doing a good job. Buggy, they are coming to capture, and the criminals, we are coming to catch, this division of labor is pretty good!”

Err …

At the time, I felt very incredible. The feeling Wei Shijie once gave me was that of a nervous boy who doesn't have any sense of security. His neurotic face hid a deep sense of inferiority. Why did he change at this time?

When he had first spoken, his face had been radiant, confident, and humorous. Although he still looked very wretched, and his hair was shining brightly, it didn't matter. The important thing is that he has changed, become more approachable, and has opened his tightly-knit heart to our colleagues and friends.

I looked at Liao Mengfann beside me, and even she was slowly transforming without me realizing it. The passing of time has gradually brought away the unfamiliarity between us people. I feel that our team is like a family, their happiness and comfort is extremely comfortable.

Walking to Wei Shijie's side, I patted his shoulder, ”I didn't know that you had some words to say!” I changed the subject and asked, ”Have you found the information on the Chilean Flaming Rose?”

”I've found it!” While talking, Wei Shijie took out an A4 piece of paper, and handed it over to me, indicating that I should take a look myself.

The A4 paper contains a bit less information. The Chilean fire rose is a bird spider that lives in the intellectual and Brazilian rainforests. It is not an Asian species in itself, but a very common pet spider.

The Chilean fire rose is a mutated species of the intelligence red rose. It is gentle in nature and would not take the initiative to attack humans under normal circumstances. It takes about three years for larvae to mature. The adult Fire Rose can reach a range of 12 to 15 cm. The whole body is red and the ornamental feeling is very strong. Fire Rose's poison was weak. Under normal circumstances, even if she was bitten, her life wouldn't be in danger.

Seeing this, I said to everyone, ”This spider's poison is very small, but if it was bitten by more than a hundred of these spiders, I guess it would be enough!”

”There is a problem here as well!” Liao Mengfann said to me, ”According to my information, Fire Rose has been in her adulthood for around three years. The big spiders in the family have an average foot span of around eight centimeters. How on earth did the murderer get hold of these spiders? Our country's inspection of this dangerous alien species is very strict. It is impossible for him to import it in large quantities. ”

”Could it be online shopping?” Wei Shijie was struck by inspiration, he walked over with his notebook and said: ”Right now, there's a shopping website called Taobao [1]. It's very popular, I can buy anything from it!”

While talking, Wei Shijie opened up the Taobao website. I saw that after he typed in the words ”Fire Rose of Chile”, over ten thousand stores popped up on the page.

Every shop used beautiful words to brag about the authenticity of the goods in their store. Whether they were adults or larvae, they could provide them for you, and they could even package them for you.

I said, ”There are tens of thousands of families here. If the killer bought the spider through online shopping, it would be no different from looking for a needle in a haystack!” As I spoke, I slowly swiped my mouse down the page, but just then, two shop signs caught my attention.

Selling a large number of Chilean Fire Rose pet spiders was definitely not selling a Red Intelligence Rose!

Curious, I opened one of the shops. I saw two large spiders that were about the same size. The spider on the left was slightly pink, while the one on the right was completely red.

The Chilean fire rose is a mutated species of intellectual red rose, with very little stock in the country. I travel from South America to Asia all year round, and I can buy it for you, without emailing, and save my life. I can sell the larvae of the fire rose and give you a full set of system discs.

I picked up the photos on the conference table and compared them with the real Flaming Rose Spider on the computer. I found that all of the spiders in the room were Flaming Rose Spiders. According to this shop, Fire Rose was very rare in the country, so how did the killer get her?

Besides, I'm still hesitant about the information on Taobao. There are a lot of scammers on the internet. If they talk too much, it becomes true. Almost all the photos in the shop had been professionally processed and could not be taken seriously.
