Chapter 132 Doubt (two in one chapter)(1/3)

 The interrogation is over.

Boris was temporarily detained on charges of mutilating a corpse.

Everyone was surprised by this result, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Susan called everyone together to discuss the situation.

Luke introduced the content of the interrogation.

Marcus cursed, "Stabbing a living person and stabbing a dead person are completely different. Can't that bastard feel it?"

Since being scolded by Boris, Xiaohei has become quite prejudiced against him.

The deputy said, "Not everyone has this kind of experience. The light was relatively dark at the time, and the guy must have been frightened out of his wits after stabbing the person.

People's IQ will drop a lot when they are overly panicked.

You can't ask everyone to be a professional killer.

In fact, many murderers are caught for the first time because of their lack of experience. As the number of crimes he commits increases, his criminal experience and mentality will grow, and it will become more and more difficult to catch him."

Luke said, "At least we now understand why the knife was inserted into the body. It can be regarded as solving the first mystery."

Marcus frowned, "I still think Boris is the murderer.

If according to his statement, Courtney was already dead at the time, he stabbed a corpse and fled immediately.

Why was the corpse disguised as hanging?

The situation described by Boris is not consistent, this guy must have lied."

Susan guessed, "Would three people have entered the scene.

The first person was the murderer and strangled Courtney to death with his hands.

The second person was Boris, who stabbed Courtney with a knife, mistakenly thinking that he had killed Courtney.

Then a third person entered the scene and disguised Courtney as if she was hanging."

The deputy asked, "I can understand the first murderer. I can also understand the second murderer, Boris.

So what is the purpose of the third person to disguise Courtney as a suicide?

Isn't he worried about being regarded as a murderer?

How could he be so lucky?

I think this guess is not very valid."

Susan said, “I have been reading the original version of Gone Girl after get off work these past two days.

This book is well written. I also checked online and found that there are many fans about this book. Especially recently, many people have been discussing this book, and there are also some more radical fans among them.

I'm wondering if Courtney's death might be related to this book." As she spoke, Susan looked at Luke aside, "The author Romit Bull you've met, do you think this is possible?"

Luke thought for a while, "I don't see any problem, but this old man is not simple."

Xiaohei added, "Yes, he also bought the original shares of Google."

The deputy waved his hand, "Anyway, I still think it's a coincidence that three people entered the crime scene. Although it is theoretically possible, the probability is too small, and it probably only exists in China."

Susan retorted, "Don't forget, Courtney died in the same way as in the scene in the movie, and this eulogy has nothing to do with it."

Luke interrupted the two of them, "Actually, I also have a guess. I wonder if you want to hear it?"

Susan glanced at the deputy team and nodded, "Go ahead."

"My assumption is there were two people there.

The first one was the murderer. He had read the original book of Gone Lovers and was going to imitate the situation in the book to kill people. Then he strangled Courtney to death on the bed and was about to arrange the hanging scene when he suddenly heard a noise outside the door.

He hid in the closet for fear of being discovered.

The person who came was none other than Boris. This guy stabbed Courtney with a knife. He thought he had killed Courtney and was so frightened.

He disposed of the fruit knife and ran away.

At this time, the murderer came out of the closet and hung Courtney's body up, trying to make it look consistent with the description in the book.

Of course, there is no perfect crime in this world. The murderer also made a mistake. He forgot to close the cabinet door.

David nodded, "The pinch marks on the neck, the knife on the chest, the suicide by hanging, the open closet door, similar plots, all the clues are basically connected together.

I think Luke’s guess is more accurate.”

Xiao Hei was not to be outdone, "Why did you steal my words?"

David stared at him, "You sycophant!"

Xiao Hei curled his lips, "I didn't, I just expressed my thoughts."

"Stop! You two boring guys." The deputy team interrupted the two of them, "If Boris is not the real murderer, then who is the real murderer?"

Luke continued his analysis, "According to Courtney's other boyfriend, the dentist Peter.

He left Courtney's house at twelve o'clock in the evening, and Courtney was still alive at that time. If what he said is true, Courtney was probably killed between twelve and ten o'clock in the morning.

The murderer was probably the one who arrived at Courtney's house during this time.

Of course, there is another possibility: the dentist Peter lied.

He didn't leave around twelve o'clock.

He is the murderer who killed Courtney!"

Jenny asked, "Why do you keep using him instead of her? Isn't it possible that the murderer is a woman?"

The deputy said, "Don't forget, the body was hung up in the end. It would be difficult for ordinary adult men to hang up the body, let alone a woman.

Based on this alone, it is unlikely that the murderer is a woman."

After a discussion, everyone finally decided that Luke's guess was the most likely.

However, the identity of the suspect needs to be further determined.

Immediately, everyone split up to investigate.

Susan is planning to meet the author of Gone Girl in person. Since the murderer is imitating the plot, the original author may be able to provide some valuable clues.

In addition, there is a deeper reason.

The biggest beneficiary of Courtney's death is probably the author of the original work, who knew enough about the content and had the motive to kill.



after get off work.

Luke and Xiao Hei went to the Canyon Branch to pick up the car.

In order to thank Luke and Blackie for helping him catch the car thief, rookie patrolman John wanted to invite them to a bar for a drink.

However, they both declined.

Xiao Hei had no choice but to leave on his Harley.

Luke is going to Daisy's house tonight.

There's nothing better than drinking with a middle-aged man than communicating with a pretty young lady.

When Luke rushed to Daisy's house, she had not come back yet.

Luke was cooking and waiting for her.

Western food is relatively simple to prepare, just fry steak, put semi-processed pizza in the oven, vegetable salad, boil prawns, and a bottle of red wine.

In his previous life, Luke also bought raw-cut steaks, but every time they were cooked, they were not very tasty. The meat was chewy and chewy.

The steaks in Western restaurants taste good, but Luke always feels that they are synthetic steaks.

When he arrived in Los Angeles, he often ate steaks and gained some experience. He discovered two secrets to frying steaks. The first one is the heat.

This has long been known.

Second, meat quality is very important.

Raw cut steaks also vary greatly.

After cooking dinner, Daisy also arrived home.

After briefly washing up, I helped Luke set the tableware.

Luke quite likes this feeling of living at home.

It would be better if Daisy wasn't so busy.

The two of them were eating and chatting.

Although it is a good habit to eat without talking or sleep without talking.

But both of them are very busy at work. If they don't talk during meal time, they will have to take up time to play poker.

This is not possible.

Daisy asked with concern, "Has Harley been found?"
