The next day.

"Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet me, but I think …"

Yan Xuan immediately said, "I understand."

The high-class restaurant in the city center had a private environment and a good atmosphere. Piano music flowed slowly amidst the soft clashing of silver knives and forks. The girl across the table bit her lower lip and said tactfully, "Although I respect the profession of the police very much and admire the sacrifices you have made, but still …"

Yan Xuan said, "I understand."

"Officer Yan, you are really a good person. Whether it is your appearance or your qualifications, you are especially outstanding. In the future, you will definitely be able to …"

Yan Xuan said, "I know."

The two of them looked at each other for a while. The girl wanted to say something but hesitated.

Yan Xuan said sincerely, "Don't worry, I will talk to the person who introduced you."

In an instant, the girl felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She waved her hand in relief. "Waiter, bill please!"

"I have." Yan Xuan wiped his mouth with a tablecloth and stood up politely. "I am really sorry for taking up your time. Where do you live? Can I give you a ride? "

The girl was slightly moved. "That would be great, you …"

His phone rang.

— Yan Xuan. His family background was superior, and he had the standard looks of an idol. Years of working as a frontline criminal police officer had trained him to look slim in clothes and fleshy in clothes. He was elegant and generous. He was the perfect matchmaking partner.

However, there was only one reason why such an old leftover man failed so many times in the matchmaking market.

"Hello?"

"Boss, Chief Wei wants you to come back immediately. Last night, there was a major discovery in the autopsy of the corpse in the KTV freezer case. The case has now been transferred to the city bureau!"

"…"

Yan Xuan hung up the phone and raised his head. With an apologetic smile, he asked, "How about I send you to the subway station?"

The girl was reasonable. She repeatedly declined, expressing a high degree of support and understanding for the work of the criminal police. The two of them parted reluctantly in a friendly atmosphere. After turning around, they deleted each other's WeChat as soon as possible.

Yan Xuan walked down the steps of the restaurant. The bright sun of early May hit him in the face. He took out a pair of sunglasses from his collar and put them on. Then, he brushed his hair. The girl's words flashed through his mind: In the future, you will definitely be able to …

Yan Xuan sighed. "You will definitely be able to master the Right Hand of God. You have to believe in yourself!"

His phone rang immediately, cheering for his dream.

Yan Xuan lazily picked it up. "Hello? … Yes, yes. I'm on my way back to the city bureau … What? What did you say? "

"Aiya, what the f * ck, boss!" The chief forensic doctor's voice could be heard through the phone. "Listen to me. It's amazing. We've found something extremely rare in the victim's body. The city bureau's May Day holiday has been canceled for the seventh year in a row. Are you convinced? Hahahaha! "

Yan Xuan said, "… Er Gou, speak human."

"Who's Er Gou? My name is Gou Li! Back when I was applying for the medical examination, I had to overcome all obstacles. In front of the solemn national flag and police badge, I recited two lines of a poem: Seeking the benefit of the country's life and death, not because of misfortune or fortune … "

"I'm hanging up. See you later."

"Hey, hey, hey!" Chief Gou said, "Don't hang up. Let me tell you something: scopolamine."

Yan Xuan paused. "Dong what?"

"Scopolamine is an alkaloid. Its effects are similar to atropine. It's usually found in medicine for motion sickness and seasickness. However, the amount of scopolamine in the victim's body is 1,600 times that of a motion sickness medicine. When combined with methamphetamine, it's enough to cause intense hallucinations, epilepsy, and mental disorders. "

Yan Xuan asked, "In other words, this kid skated to his death?"

"Yes and no," Chief Gou said proudly. Department Director Gou said proudly, "Through my rich professional experience, detailed chemical knowledge, and bold analysis and verification … I can preliminarily conclude that the hallucinogen in the deceased's body is a completely new type of drug. Note that it's a completely new type of drug, and its molecular formula is different from all known drugs on the market. As for the direct cause of death, it's that the victim suffered from hallucinogens and experienced extreme hallucinations and body temperature imbalance. Therefore, he voluntarily walked into the freezer and closed the door, freezing himself to death — the fingerprint you asked the branch's technical investigator to take from the inside of the freezer last night also proves this point. How is it, Old Yan? Do you feel enlightened? "

Yan Xuan generously gave away the laurel that Wan Zhenguo had given him last night. "Contemporary Conan!"
