Chapter 164: Chapter 163 Where did the blood sample go?_1

Mr. Zhao raised his camera, taking photo after photo with the constant click of the shutter. By now, no explanation was necessary; everyone had guessed it was the cake.

"It hasn't digested?"

Zhou Ning shook his head, turning to Zhu Xingxing, who had asked the question.

"Cream cakes generally take 4-6 hours to fully digest. Just now, there was black material in the esophagus, which I think was a portion of the stomach contents being squeezed out during stomach contractions. The amount of cake the victim ate that night must have been far more than this."

Liu Yongxin nodded continually on the side.

"Let's take samples—stomach contents, esophageal residues, blood from the heart. Given this state of digestion, the victim died about an hour after eating."

Zhou Ning nodded, his face growing more serious.

"It seems Dong Chengwen is lying. He didn't go out at eleven to buy wontons. They ate the cake around ten, and one wouldn't be hungry an hour later."
