Chapter 4 Lin Xiao's Last Wish 2
"Is it erased if the task fails? Is it because of the first task, so the punishment for failure is more serious?" Lin Xiao guessed in his heart.
He looked at the dry 20 yuan in his pocket, decisively put on his clothes, and secretly left the hospital.
I owe the treatment fee first, and I will definitely pay it back when I have the money.
I found a small restaurant, and had a meal with a slight meal, and ate five steamed buns. Lin Xiao suspected that his predecessor was a rice bucket.
A few hours later, he came to a quiet community.
Although Qingyun City is the capital of China, this old and dilapidated community is still located among many high-rise buildings.
"According to memory, Lin Xiao rented a house in this community three days ago."
"The memory in my mind shows that Lin Xiao has been in the hut for the past two days, but his memory is intermittent and very vague, and it is not as clear as the memory three days ago. This shows that on the day of renting a house, Lin Xiao encountered an unexpected accident and was in a state of illness, hypnosis or poisoning."
Lin Xiao talked to himself and walked into the community. What caught his eye was a tall mulberry tree.
The tree is as tall as a five-story building, but a few branches fell to the ground, and the leaves on it were pulled out, which seemed to be a prank by some child.
The sun was blocked by the leaves, causing the entire building to be dark.
Lin Xiao came to the bulletin board in front of the building and saw a group of psoriasis-like advertisements.
After looking through a few times, he found the information he needed.
"Sure enough, the rental advertisement posted here is the cheapest basement for rent, which costs 2,000 yuan a month. Lin Xiao, the former man, only spent 500 yuan, rented the east house on the fifth floor for a month. There must be problems with such a cheap rent."
Lin Xiao walked into the corridor and knocked on the east gate of the first floor.
This is where the homeowner is located.
In my memory, the homeowner was a short and gray-haired old man who didn't like to talk much. After receiving Lin Xiao's money, he took out a rental contract. The time it took for the two to reach the deal was no more than five minutes.
"There must be a problem with this homeowner. Maybe Lin Xiao was killed by him? So, what is the cause of death, poisoning?"
While Lin Xiao was thinking in his heart, the door in front opened. An old man with wrinkles showed half of his face from the crack of the door, staring straight at Lin Xiao.
Through the crack in the door, Lin Xiao could observe that there was darkness in the old man's house. Obviously, he pulled the curtains tightly and did not turn on the lights.
At this time, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and it was already past the normal nap. Since it was not a nap, why should I pull the curtains?
"This old man, what's in the house, afraid of being discovered?"
Lin Xiao frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "Hello, old man, I am Lin Xiao who rented your house."
The old man nodded and handed out a contract from the crack in the door.
The same contract as Lin Xiao had seen in his memory.
Then, he stretched out his hand to Lin Xiao, as if saying: Give money.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao said, "Old man, have you forgotten? I just rented your house three days ago and signed a contract with you. I don't know if it's convenient for you. I want to ask you if I have something to do. Can I go into the house and say it?"
As he said that, Lin Xiao stretched out his hand and wanted to push the door and enter the old man's house.
However, the old man muttered the word "inconvenient" and closed the door.
Lin Xiao knocked on the door again, but the old man stopped opening the door and did not respond.
"It seems that I can't get more clues from the old man for the time being. I'd better go to the rented house first."
Lin Xiao walked up to the fifth floor on the top floor, took out the key, opened the east door, and entered the rental house.
This house has good conditions, two bedrooms and one living room, complete furniture, so you can move in with your luggage.
With such conditions, the monthly rent for a month in Qingyun City, the capital is at least 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.
"I dare to live in a house like this for 500 yuan a month. I really don't know how to write the word "名名"."
Lin Xiao was full of complaints about the predecessor of this body. He observed carefully in the house.
Investigation is actually a complex science. Ordinary people may not find any abnormalities when entering this house.
However, as a top student on Qingyun Planet, Lin Xiao received professional training in the military academy and quickly found clues.
Lin Xiao first searched the living room. After gaining nothing, he entered the kitchen.
In the kitchen, there are a few tomatoes and a few packs of instant noodles. Lin Xiao has an impression that this was bought three days ago to prepare for breakfast.
"There is no sign of fire in the kitchen, and these intact tomatoes and instant noodles, it means that Lin Xiao has not cooked at home these two days. In the memories of these two days, there is no memory of the room outside the bedroom, which means that Lin Xiao has not left the rent. Could it be that this body has not eaten for two days?"
Then, Lin Xiao put his finger deep into the kitchen and inside the faucet in the bathroom.
"If you have used a faucet recently, water stains will definitely be stained with water. Now all faucets are dry, which means you have not used a faucet in the past two days. Could it be that this guy has not drunk water, washed and used the toilet for two days?"
Lin Xiao came to the bedroom and made a new discovery.
"The quilt on the bedroom bed is not folded. Judging from the shape of the quilt, it seems that I have hurriedly got up from the bed."
Lin Xiao lay on the bed, trying to imitate the action of the former owner waking up from the bed in the shape of the quilt.
The direction when you wake up is the bedroom window.
The window is open, and outside the window is the tall mulberry tree.
"That is to say, when Lin Xiao was asleep at night, someone climbed into his room through the mulberry tree and plotted against him?"
Lin Xiao walked to the window and observed the windowsill. He found a vague shoe print.
"If you sneak into the house with a stolen foot, the shoe prints must be clear. This shoe print is so blurry, which means that the visitor is very fast and rushed in quickly stepping on the window."
After reconnaissance, Lin Xiao had already made a preliminary judgment.
"Restore the scene at that time. On the first night when the owner lived here in front of this body, a man climbed up a mulberry tree and gently opened the window from outside. As expected, Lin Xiao woke up at this time, and the man rushed into the bedroom and harmed him."
"The way to inflict harm may be mental poison, or of course hypnosis. After the former owner of this body was harmed, he stayed in this bedroom and did not eat or drink for two days until the third day, when he took a taxi and got into a car accident."
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao frowned tightly.
“Now, there are two problems.”
"First, what is the motive for murder? According to memory, Lin Xiao has no enemies and there is no vendetta. Moreover, he doesn't have much money on him, and the criminal has not stole his money and belongings."
"Second, how did this person come in from outside? In my memory, the former master had closed the window before going to bed. What method did the criminal use to open the window without realizing it?"
Lin Xiao raised his head and observed the window. However, there was no damage on the glass on the window except for a round hole the size of a penny coin.
This round hole is very small, only the size of a little finger, and is very far from the window. It is impossible for ordinary people to open the window through it.
At this time, it was already late and the sun was gradually setting. Under the cover of mulberry leaves outside the window, the bedroom was dark.
Listening to the sound of the wind blowing leaves outside the window, Lin Xiao suddenly felt a little strange.
Too quiet!
Here, I can't hear the birds' cry.
Could it be that the birds noticed some danger and dared not approach here?
"Even if the old man on the first floor is not the murderer, he must be related to the murderer. Today, he has seen me return to rent a house. Tonight, the murderer may come to commit the murderer. I am here to wait for the rabbit. If I have good luck, I can catch the murderer directly."
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao closed the bedroom window, sat quietly on the bed, closed his eyes and rested.
Chapter completed!
