There were six people living in one room here. Because of the death of the person, the other five moved to another room. Therefore, when Sheng Fenghua and the others entered, the room was empty.
Opening the door, Sheng Fenghua first looked around the room, then asked the person in charge, "which berth does the deceased live in?"
"The lower berth by the window over there, " the person in charge pointed to the berth in front and said.
Sheng Fenghua walked over. As soon as she got close, she smelled the smell of alcohol and couldn't help but frown. Then, she lowered her head to look for it.
Not long after, she found an empty bottle under the bed. She picked it up and smelled it. Sure enough, there was the smell of alcohol.
Sheng Fenghua handed the bottle to the police officer and let him take it first. Then, she started to look at other things. After looking around, she did not find anything else. Just as she was about to leave, a speck of green under her feet caught her attention.
Sheng Fenghua squatted down and picked up the green thing on the ground. At a glance, she realized what kind of plant that green thing was.
She put the plant in her nose and smelled it. It smelled like medicine.
It seemed that that thing was a herb. However, it seemed that she had never seen such a herb before. At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind. She thought of the cough-stopping herb that director Huang had mentioned earlier.
Looking up, Sheng Fenghua glanced at the few people present. She handed the plant in her hand to them and asked, "do any of you know this thing?"
The few of them glanced at it. The police officer and elder Cai shook their heads at the same time. The person in charge, on the other hand, reached out and took the plant. He looked at it carefully and said, "if I'm not mistaken, this plant should be the cough-stopping grass that people here often talk about."
"COUGH-STOPPING GRASS?" Sheng Fenghua was stunned. She didn't expect that she had really guessed it right. This thing was really cough-stopping grass.
"That's right. Our workers sometimes pick this kind of grass when they are not feeling well, and then soak it in wine to drink, " the person in charge explained and returned the cough-stopping grass to Sheng Fenghua.
Sheng Fenghua held the cough-stopping grass in her hand and pondered for a moment, then asked, "where can I find this kind of grass? Can you take me to have a look?"
"There's no grass near here. We have to go to that mountain over there. The mountain over there is high and dense, and the road isn't easy to walk on. We rarely go there."
"How about this? I'll see which one of you is free tomorrow and know this kind of cough-stopping grass. Take me there to have a look."
"Sure." The person in charge agreed. He planned to find a worker who knew the way and take Sheng Fenghua there.
Sheng Fenghua took out a transparent bag from the medicine box and put the cough-stopping grass in it. She planned to go back and study it to see what ingredients the cough-stopping grass was made of.
After putting the cough-stopping grass in, Sheng Fenghua looked up at the person in charge again "Didn't you say that everything was normal for the deceased? Why would there be cough-stopping grass in his house? Also, you just said that the cough-stopping grass is not around here, so it will take some time to pick it. When did he go out?"
The person in charge was rendered speechless by Sheng Fenghua's question. After a long time, he said, "I'll go back and check if he took any time off."
"I'll go with you later. Also, call the workers who lived in the same room with the deceased. I still have some questions to ask them."
"okay, I'll go and call them now." After the person in charge finished speaking, he went out of the room to call for people.
In a short while, the five workers who lived with the deceased were called over. As soon as they entered the room, Sheng Fenghua saw their unhappy faces.
"Are you still letting people sleep? What else do you want to ask? Didn't we already talk about this?" One of the workers complained as soon as he entered the house.
