“What are you making this time, Chef Song?” Dali joked.

“Just hurry and go, will you?” I snapped.

Once Dali had gone, I brought the samples I collected from the corpse to the forensics team for testing. When I returned to the morgue, I saw Xiaotao standing at the door talking to several officers. I asked her what happened and she replied, “The rich lady who was attacked had been rescued. We learned from her secretary that her company was recently in a dispute with Chen Da’s company. The rich lady usually delivered her goods through Chen Da’s company, but there was another logistics company that offered their services at a much lower price, so the rich lady broke their previous contract and switched to the other company instead.”

It wasn’t uncommon for large corporations...
