Chu Nan was not polite and reached out to take the tea leaves, but still warned, "Don't give me tea leaves in the future. I have a lot of them at home."

"Okay." Wu Ziyun nodded obediently.

Although it rained heavily, the work still had to continue.

Chu Nan took Zhou Zhe and Wu Ziyun to continue the statistical work of the immigrant population.

After another busy morning, Chengguan Town has basically been investigated.

There is only one last alley left.

It was already dinner time, and I planned to eat. Considering that there wasn’t much work to do, I might as well go back to Badaoguai to eat after finishing the work.

"Team leader, it seems there is no one." Zhou Zhe knocked on the door and turned around and said with some uncertainty.

Chu Nan glanced along the crack in the door.

The door of the house was open, and there was a wooden rocking chair in the yard.

At this moment, a yellow figure suddenly jumped out.

A yellow dog came behind the gate and barked at Chu Nan.

"Open the door! Open the door quickly! Something happened to my master." This is what Chu Nan heard.

Chu Nan quickly came to the bottom of the wall and jumped over it with a slight jump.

Zhou Zhe and Wu Ziyun looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and they both saw confusion in each other's eyes.

After entering the courtyard, Chu Nan opened the door immediately.

"Team leader, we don't have a search warrant. Isn't this bad?" Zhou Zhe expressed his worries.

Chu Nan did not respond to him and walked into the house hurriedly.

As soon as he entered the room, Chu Nan was suffocated by the smell of blood mixed with a faint stench.

Following the smell to the bedroom, Chu Nan saw the old man lying on his back on the ground.

Several mice were frightened and fled in all directions.

The old man's exposed flesh was chewed to pieces by rats.

Most of the blood on the ground had solidified into black and purple, and the stench mixed with the smell of blood was emanating from the old man.

"Zhou Zhe, call the Badaoguai Police Station and the Criminal Investigation Brigade." After Chu Nan finished speaking, he withdrew.

"Don't you need to call the emergency number?" Wu Ziyun couldn't help but ask.

"No need." Chu Nan shook his head, "The person has been dead for more than twenty-four hours."

When Chu Nan and the others came here, they were just doing daily work, so they didn't bring any shoes, covers or gloves.

If you go in hastily, if this is a murder case, you will definitely destroy the scene.

Now that it has been confirmed that the old man is dead, what we need to do now is to protect the scene as much as possible.

Not long after, a piercing siren sounded.

Several police cars were parked at the gate of the yard with double flashes.

"Chun Nan, what's going on? Someone's dead?" Cheng Tao got off the car and hurried to Chu Nan's side.

"Yes." Chu Nan nodded, "The old man who lives alone probably fell ill suddenly when he got up and fell into a coma.

Without anyone discovering it or seeking medical treatment in time, the person dies.

The old man was seriously bitten by rats. I have contacted the old man's children.

The old man’s son is working in the south, his eldest daughter is married to Hu Jian, and his second daughter is married to Xijiang. They probably won’t be able to come here until tomorrow.”

"Raising a child to prevent old age, raising a child to prevent old age, what a waste! The old man died in the house and no one knew!" Cheng Tao complained angrily, and hurried to the bedroom door to take a look.

Although he was well prepared, Cheng Tao was still frightened by the horror in the bedroom and frowned tightly.

Forensic scientists and trace experts from the Criminal Investigation Brigade entered one after another.

The team was led by a deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Southern District Branch named Wan Jun.

"Team Leader Chu, were you the first to discover this old man?" Wan Jun asked.

"Yes." Chu Nan nodded, "We came here to conduct a survey and registration of the migrant population. When we found out, the old man was already dead."

"Is the door open?"

"The courtyard gate is locked and the house door is open."

"The courtyard gate is locked?" Wan Jun stared at Chu Nan in surprise, "Then how did you get in?"

"Climb the wall."

"Climb over the wall?" Wan Jun's eyes widened, he glanced at Chu Nan, and then subconsciously glanced at Cheng Tao.

According to regulations, the police need to obtain the consent of the owner to visit the house, and a search warrant is required to force entry.

Chu Nan's operation was obviously illegal.

"Why do you want to climb over the wall?"

"I think something is wrong with the situation. It's raining so hard today, so I usually don't go out. Even if I go out, the door of the house won't be left open.

Moreover, the furnishings in the yard don’t look like they’re going out.

I checked later and found out that this compound was occupied by an elderly person living alone. We tried to call the door, but no one responded.

I was worried that the old man would not tell me what happened, so after weighing it, I chose to climb over the wall," Chu Nan explained.

Cheng Tao quickly said: "It's understandable, it's understandable. Elderly people living alone are indeed a high-risk group. We have encountered this kind of thing many times before."

"I understand, I understand." Wan Jun nodded and said with some embarrassment: "But, Cheng Suo, Team Leader Chu, our transcript must be filled in truthfully. I hope you can understand."

"Understood." Chu Nan said with a smile.

"Team Wan, the deceased had trauma on his head and elbow joint, which are completely consistent with the impact point at the scene.

The initial test showed no traces of poisoning, and we suspect that the death was caused by a sudden illness that was not treated in time." After more than ten minutes, the forensic doctor walked out of the bedroom and said.

"No traces of a fight were found at the scene, and no footprints or fingerprints of the second party were found, which meets the conditions of accidental death." When the trace expert spoke, he glanced at Chu Nan with some anxiety.

Wan Jun nodded, looked at Chu Nan subconsciously, and asked tentatively: "Team Leader Chu, do you want to take a look?"

"Let me take a look." Chu Nan put on his shoes and gloves and came to the room.

He observed the body carefully and found nothing unusual.

There was nothing unusual in the bedroom.

After looking around, Chu Nan's attention was attracted by a dozen bottles and cans on the bedside table.

He examined the bottles and jars carefully.

All are medicines.

There are those that lower blood pressure, those that clear blood lipids, and most of the rest are used to relieve heart problems.

Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, heart disease.

These diseases are all fatal to the elderly.

Take any one of them, if it occurs suddenly and is not treated in time, there is a high possibility of death.

But even so, such an old man is allowed to live alone.

How big this girl's heart is.

To be honest, for such children, even if you punish them with the crime of abandonment, it is not excessive at all!

Chu Nan searched around the room and found a somewhat mottled wooden box under the bed.

He took out the wooden box, and it was actually locked.

Chu Nan carried the box to the main room and called out to Wan Jun and Cheng Tao.

According to relevant regulations, collecting evidence at a crime scene requires someone to witness it.

This is to prevent anyone from forging or destroying evidence.

Opening the box, everyone's eyes widened at the thick stack of insurance policies.

Chu Nan took out all the insurance policies and counted them. There were thirty-seven in total.

These policies are almost exclusively accidental death insurance.
