Chapter 155: Canary Diamond

“That is supported by the injury pattern of the victim’s head. His mouth cavity has been stretched open, confirmed by the abrasions on the muscles inside the mouth. There are tearing to the skin tissue around the cheeks as well.” Hearing that, Ah Si and Ah Zhong swallowed and felt a phantom pain run down their throat.

“The injury pattern inside the mouth cavity fits the shape of a cylinder. Perhaps a piece of wood was placed inside the victim’s mouth to keep his mouth and throat open. It is rather cruel.” Mo Li sighed. What kind of people had Wu Yong offended that he would have to die like this?

“After he was forced fed the nails, the victim’s assailant poured large water down Wu Yong’s throat to wash them down. Due to the large quantity of surging water, the water pressure sped up the corrosion of the nails’ colloidal alumina binders. It made the nails even sharper, expediting Wu Yong’s death.”

“Then shouldn’t the cause of death be internal bleeding?” Ah Zhong was confused. “Where does the poisoning come from then?”

Ah Si looked at Mo Li. In this day and age, perhaps only Mo Li would be able to be so calm and professional at a scene like this.

“The poisoning comes from the corroded aluminum. Our stomach acid is as strong as battery acid. When the nails fell into his stomach, they reacted with each other. Metal poisoning meant that the wounds in the victim’s body couldn’t heal at its normal speed.”

“Okay… Miss Mo Li, you said he died around 12 hours ago?”

Mo Li nodded.

Quan Yu added, “Then our discovery was correct. The livestream wasn’t live at all, it was a recording.”

Mo Li looked at Wu Yong and she wondered if the man had seen this coming to him when he livestreamed Jiang Li’s death that day. When they met in the afterlife, would Wu Yong apologize to Jiang Li?

At that moment, Mo Li couldn’t help but feel sorry for Wu Yong. Yes, the man was wrong for using another person’s tragedy to gain popularity online but the truth in media was that sex and death always sell, so could Wu Yong truly be blamed for the public’s macabre interest?

Since his family didn’t support his livestreaming dream, Wu Yong was kicked out and left to fend for himself. He was quite a hardworking man. He had an actual occupation and still worked hard to achieve his dream, he merely had used the wrong method.

“Wait a minute!” As Ah Si directed the people to carry away the dead body, Mo Li noticed something shiny among the pieces of flesh. She bent down and found something. She used the cloth to carefully wipe away the blood and then the thing glowed.

“That is…” Ah Si gasped when he saw the shiny object and he instantly knew this was definitely not something Wu Yong could afford.

“JC’s canary diamond cuff link.” Quan Yu offered. He was very familiar with these things. One of these would be worth more than Wu Yong’s life. “The link itself is made from 18k white gold. The crowning glory is that yellow gem in the centre. It is a 21 carat canary diamond. It is set in a nestle of trapezoidal cut 10 carat white diamonds.

“This cuff link is custom-made. The gum drop design of the cuff link are specific to jewelry outlets in Beijing, Pearl River and Nan Hai.”

“Custom-made? Does that mean we might be able to track down its owner?” Mo Li’s eyes lit up. Quan Yu was already sending people to investigate.

After sending away the body and sealing up the crime scene, they prepare to leave.

As they prepared to depart, they ran into someone familiar. It was the neighbourhood guard, Chen Quan. The latter greeted them.

“Chen Quan, you’re on duty today?” When Mo Li saw him, she asked.

“Yes, did something else happen?”
