Chapter 759: Clues about Verenis
“Your lips are dry, drink some water, sir.”
Luo An smiled, turned around where Veranith couldn't see, took out a bottle of [antidote] and poured it into a water glass, then poured some white water into the cup and handed it to Veranith, smiling:
“It’s uncomfortable, but the poisoning is discovered early, which is a blessing among misfortunes.”
"Right."
Veranith took a few sips from the water glass, with a wry smile on her face:
“At least he survived.”
Before Luo An came to visit, Veranith had taken the opportunity to ask the doctor whether her poisoning would leave any sequelae.
The doctor said that he is not sure yet, and more observation is needed in the future. At present, the main treatment is injection of drugs and rest, and he must not leave the hospital in a short period of time.
After a brief chat, Veranith stepped into the topic and asked in a solemn voice:
“Mr. Clement, have I given this case to you?”
Luo An nodded, and Veranith sighed helplessly:
“As expected.”
“Luo An, the circumstances of this case are special and different from the cases you have handled before.”
The doctor said that the test results showed that she had been poisoned for less than 10 hours. Veranith carefully recalled all her experiences in the first 10 hours.
Taking a deep breath, Veranith's pale face was very serious and she said in a deep voice:
Clement has a lot of talented people, but the circumstances of this case are special. There are not many people who can be trusted by Mr. Clement and have the ability to investigate this case.
She was leading a team to investigate a nuclear-related laboratory at the time. When the person in charge of the laboratory introduced polonium-210, he did a test on Verenis and several others, and found that Verenis had been poisoned.
This mission is another secret mission. Except for Mr. Clement and FBI Director Robert, only a few high-level officials know about it... Veranith seriously suspects that the people above may not be clean either.
Being able to poison with such precision, Veranith seriously suspected that there was something wrong with the agents she led.
The biggest abnormality is the absence of any abnormality. All the items that Veranith came into contact with, and other agents she led, also came into contact with more or less, but in the end, only she was poisoned, and the others were fine.
In addition, only a very small dose, such as a grain of dust, can poison people. The particles released by small doses of polonium 210 are not easily detected by Geiger counters. This makes food, water, and even the air blown by air conditioners become toxic. Very dangerous.
The food, water, the places she walked, the things she took, etc., Veranith recalled them all carefully and carefully, but in the end she found nothing unusual.
“I understand, sir.”
“In addition to polonium 210, there are also internal problems. You have to be more careful and pay more attention to details.”
The reason why Verenis was discovered in time this time was purely due to luck.
Speaking of this, Veranith then lowered her voice and added:
In the early stages of polonium-210 entering the body, there is almost no feeling and it is difficult to detect. By the time you feel dizzy, nauseous, or vomiting, you have missed the best time for rescue and have directly entered the countdown to your life.
The specific time when she was poisoned was something that Veranith kept thinking about when she was being rescued.
Veriness was injured and hospitalized, and Luo An, who was outstanding in all aspects such as intelligence, political skills, and combat ability, immediately became the only suitable candidate.
Luo An nodded seriously, he also discovered these situations.
These agents were originally notified by their superiors that these people needed to go to further study; the agents themselves did not know the specific mission until they left the Washington headquarters and arrived at a location randomly selected by Verenis. After reading all the information, Luo An became extremely vigilant about the people above him that day. At the same time, he secretly sent a message to other agents of the special investigation team, asking them to be more careful in the past few days.
At the same time, Luo An also asked Mona to secretly contact several hospitals and nuclear-related laboratories, planning to conduct physical examinations every 12 hours during the investigation of the case.
Learning that Luo An had already made preparations and arrangements, Veranith nodded with satisfaction and breathed a sigh of relief.
Polonium 210 was too difficult to guard against, and she was very worried that Luo An would end up in bed like her.
Even Veranith felt that lying on the bed was a good thing, but she was afraid that Luo An would not even have a chance to lie on the bed. This was the thing that Veranith was most afraid of.
Took the water glass, filled it again and handed it to Veranith. Luo An smiled and comforted her a few words, and then asked:
“Sir, how far have you reached in investigating this case?”
After the death of "Blue-Eyed Roy", Veranith has led a team to conduct a secret investigation for more than a week. It is impossible that no clues have been found.
Regarding the relevant investigation documents, Luo An has asked Mona and Cheniel to go and retrieve the special investigation team, but there are some things that the documents will not explain and can only be known by asking the parties involved.
Hearing Luo An talk about business, Veranith said seriously with a serious face:
“The autopsy results showed that there were only two wounds on “Blue-Eyed Roy”:
The wound was stabbed into the heart with a sharp instrument. The murderer even twisted it, causing the wound to expand.
The other wound was on the throat, which was scratched with a sharp instrument, causing blood to pour into the trachea, and eventually he died of suffocation. "
Luo An frowned slightly when he heard this:
“This doesn’t seem to have been done by a human hand?”
“That’s right.”
Veranith glanced at Luo An appreciatively, with an unnoticeable admiration flashing in her eyes, and then said:
“We soon found out who did it. “Blue-Eyed Roy” was not a simple guy. When he was killed, he also killed the two guys who attacked him.
Those two men were both criminals who had been sentenced to more than fifty years in prison. One was named Owen and the other was named Davis.
The weapons used by the two of them were a sharp and sharpened iron spoon that they got from an unknown source, and a fragment of an iron knife that they got from an unknown source.
As for why the two wanted to kill "Blue-Eyed Roy", no clues could be found, and no one has visited them in the short term.
We suspect that the man who contacted the two and asked them to kill "Blue Eyes Roy" was a prison guard in the prison, or another criminal in the prison.
The prison system is self-contained, and this case cannot be investigated with great fanfare, so the prison line is temporarily stuck here.
But in fact, I have bribed a prison guard named Danny and obtained a lot of information from him. The specific content is in one of my notebooks. You can check it out yourself. "
Luo An thought carefully, remembered all this information in his mind, and then asked:
“What about polonium-210? Sir, have you found anything?”
Hearing the word polonium 210, Veranith's face suddenly sank. She took a deep breath and said in a concentrated voice:
“Through some channels, I obtained a list of nuclear laboratories within the federal territory that can produce polonium-210.
Most nuclear laboratories have fairly strict management, and the whereabouts of relevant radioactive materials can be clearly identified.
But some nuclear laboratories, due to the capital investment of some private companies, have made their management chaotic and even the processing of many fuels does not meet the standards.
Especially on the federal east coast, some nuclear laboratories invested and supported by the Illinois Nuclear Power Company have the most serious violations! "
