Leng Zirui looked at the photograph in front of him, only to see the man’s neck in the photo swollen greatly, his face blue and purple, and two black fang marks clearly visible on his neck.
"Send this photo to Interpol and see if they have any information on this person." Leng Zirui strode toward the desk, "Bring up the files on the other victims!"
The staff imdiately acted, retrieving the death files and photos of several presud Cobra mbers collected earlier from the database.
Sure enough, the technique evidenced in this newly acquired photo was very similar; all had neck injuries resembling Cobra bites.
"How can we determine these aren’t real snake bites?" Leng Zirui asked.
The staff moved the mouse, pulling up a photo of a King Cobra, "Look, this is a real King Cobra. This is a photo of a King Cobra bite. The bite marks seem similar, but a King Cobra bite doesn’t result in imdiate death. However, the ti from poisoning to death for these bodies was very short, indicating that the venom they were exposed to had been refined, making it more potent."
Leng Zirui nodded; real snakes wouldn’t refine their venom. Such things can only be done by humans.
Staring at the screen displaying the King Cobra with its mouth open and fangs protruding, Leng Zirui felt a familiar sense about this snake.
His phone rang again. Leng Zirui reached for his phone and answered the call.
"Hello?"
"Zirui, it’s Shanshan!" On the other end was his old classmate Xing Shanshan’s voice, "I looked into the photo you sent yesterday. Recently, no major jewelry companies have released similar necklaces. Can you confirm the exact brand?!"
Xing Shanshan is his classmate and forr partner in the compound. Now she is into jewelry design and runs her own jewelry brand.
After seeing that snake-shaped necklace from the nurse, Leng Zirui sent the photo to her to see if she could identify which jewelry company made it, as he wanted to buy one for Xu Xia.
"Alright, I’ll confirm and call you back later."
Leng Zirui hung up the phone, glanced at the Cobra on the screen, and then opened his phone album to pull up the necklace photo.
The necklace in the photo had a shape completely resembling the King Cobra in front of him.
Staring at that necklace, Leng Zirui seed to have caught onto sothing, yet couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was.
"Did you uncover anything on that doctor and nurse I asked you to investigate?!"
"Neither showed any extraordinary behavior, and their families are safe. No significant funds were found to have been transferred into their accounts." A subordinate removed his headphones, "Now that attending physician has started day shifts at the hospital, the nurse left after her night shift."
"How about Shanxia Junzi?"
"Her emotions are very stable, she seems not worried at all!"
Leng Zirui lifted a hand to rub his chin, "Find a way to temporarily transfer her to a different ward, and install hidden caras and surveillance systems in the room!"
For soone to remain this calm after being caught, it suggests she isn’t concerned about her circumstances. Such behavior is highly abnormal, and coupled with the suspected Cobra activities appearing in Shanghai, this further convinces Leng Zirui that sothing is amiss.
