Seated in the brand-new GL8, Dai Mingsheng eagerly asked, "Captain Jiang, has the cause of death been confirmed?"
"Mechanical asphyxiation. It seems someone covered her mouth and nose from behind, suffocating her to death," Jiang Yuan paused and elaborated more clearly, "Before death, there was sexual activity, but it's uncertain whether it involved assault. Additionally, the victim showed weak resistance; it's possible she was drugged. We'll need to wait for toxicology results."
"Time of death?"
"Around 4:00 AM that morning."
"So, Li Aiyuan had just finished filming her scenes that day and then died?"
"Pretty much."
"Makes sense. Given her level of attention, if she had appeared on set later, someone would surely remember. The fact that her body was discovered only the next morning means she was killed shortly after disappearing."
