Liu Manman looked at Cheng Yu with a look of confusion on his face.
She asked: "Why did your face suddenly become so ugly?"
Cheng Yu hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the possibility he just thought of, the worst possibility.
"The murderer last night could only be one of the five of you, right?"
Liu Manman nodded and said, "That's the theory."
"Then, of course, the murderer was not you, because you were most likely at my place at that time. Although you finally left before two o'clock, I think it was difficult for you to attack at that time. And you probably didn't want to leave me at that time.
room, so the identity of the murderer is reduced to only four people."
"It's impossible for Xiaoliang. He's not crazy enough to kill anyone, and I'm sure he can't have any kind of crazy scent."
Cheng Yu nodded and said, "That's what's scary. You said it wasn't Deng Jingliang, okay, I believe you. And you said it was Guo Pingan who asked to check the window, but he didn't go after he said it.
If he does this, he will have no chance to put incense, and the murderer can only be one of Su Xi and Xie Yanwen. As for Xie Yanwen, theoretically he is the only one who is still awake at that point, so he does not need to be careful about himself, so for Xie Yanwen
For him, his better choice is to wait until Old London is charged after two o'clock before taking action. Because even if the effect of the incense will be reduced at that time, the biggest disadvantage of Old London will be missing. In particular, the longer the time, the more the effect will be reduced.
The later the night, the more likely others are to be asleep, and the lower the chance of detecting any movement. Even if Bai Xiaowen makes some noise because the incense is not effective enough, Xie Yanwen doesn't have to worry so much. And the only murderer is Su Xi.
Under such circumstances, she had to take the risk of Old London and take action when Bai Xiaowen was in the deepest coma, because at least at that time, Bai Xiaowen would not have the possibility of resisting or sending a distress signal."
After hearing this, Liu Manman took a breath and said, "I'll go! Su Xi pretends to be so... When you say that, I think it's her more and more. You see, the murderer has to be a little older to come in and kill, and then in this
She couldn't turn on the lights at that time, so she couldn't lock the door, so she had to wait until 5 o'clock in the morning when it got light before she could set up the scene. That's why Su Xi looked haggard. I originally thought she didn't sleep well because she was worried.
Now it seems that she was simply committing murder and stealing goods that night!"
Cheng Yu's heart sank to the bottom. Indeed, once he thought about the possibility of Su Xi being the murderer, he began to think more and more that it was the case.
"Ignoring this for now, we still need to reconfirm who checked Bai Xiaowen's window last night, and that person has a very high probability of being the murderer."
Liu Manman nodded vigorously, turned on the intercom, and after sending the signal, Deng Jingliang's voice soon came from the earphones.
"Xiao Liang, do you still remember that when we were preparing to install the latch on the door of the Little Green Tea Terrace in Old London last night, Guo Pingan mentioned that we should check the windows?"
Deng Jingliang seemed to think for a while and said: "It seems that there is such a thing, but I don't remember it clearly."
Liu Manman shook his head angrily, but still asked with a glimmer of hope: "Then do you remember that someone checked the window afterwards? Who was that person?"
Deng Jingliang thought for a long time and finally replied: "I don't even remember what Guo Ping'an said clearly, so why don't I remember who went to check the window? It has nothing to do with me anyway."
"Okay, okay, then you die early. You can't remember anything. What's the use of you?"
Liu Manman turned off the intercom again angrily.
Deng Jingliang was just about to make a few excuses, but he said to himself that I don't remember, but you don't remember either? If you remember, do you still need to ask me? I'm useless, how useful can you be?
But obviously, Liu Manman didn't give him such a chance at all. Deng Jingliang pressed the call button, but the headset gave him feedback that the other party had turned off the device.
"Ma Dan, you don't let me finish what I'm saying. You want to choke me to death! Besides, what's going on? There's no beginning and no end. Please explain it to me clearly!"
Of course Liu Manman couldn't hear Deng Jingliang's complaints. She just said to Cheng Yu gloomily: "That fool said he didn't remember either."
Cheng Yu smiled and said, "There's no need to be anxious. We'll have lunch soon. Just ask then."
"That's all we can do. However, this Su Xi is really hiding deep enough. I went there and suggested everyone stay in the lobby on the first floor yesterday, but at night she started killing people and buying goods. Oh, that's not right, if there is a miscellaneous fragrance
What is the pinhole used for in this kind of thing?"
Cheng Yu said: "It was used to confuse us. Obviously, the incense used by the murderer also has the effect of making people completely unconscious and unable to feel pain. To put it bluntly, it is like an anesthetic given before an operation in the hospital. But the murderer
I didn’t want anyone to realize this, so I deliberately put a needle in Bai Xiaowen’s leg, pretending that someone had given Bai Xiaowen a needle. In fact, the pinhole was probably just a pinhole.
.”
"The murderer is Su Xi. Why don't you just say her name?" Liu Manman suddenly became a little anxious.
Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "Although it seems that Su Xi is more likely now, we can't rule out the possibility that you remembered it wrong and it was actually Guo Ping'an who went to check the window. Or, although the probability is that Xie Yanwen's
The sex is even lower, but it’s not impossible. At least for now, I don’t have enough evidence to identify Su Xi as the murderer.”
"Okay, okay, anyway, you have some different ideas about Su Xi, and I'm too lazy to tell you."
Cheng Yu didn't want to explain anymore, and he had no obligation to explain to Liu Manman. The relationship between Liu Manman and him was just a chance encounter.
"Why did you ask me to close the door?" Liu Manman remembered her original doubts again.
Cheng Yu said: "To confirm, has anyone put incense in the bedroom?"
"Isn't it a volatile agent? It's been more than ten hours and it hasn't evaporated yet?"
Cheng Yu nodded and said, "The volatilization must have finished, but I checked the drug. Because it contains benzene, bromine and alcohol, the incense does have a special aroma. Although the window is always open
, but if you let it sit for a while, you might still be able to smell a little bit of a strange smell."
Liu Manman frowned and said, "That's a scent. Isn't it dangerous for us to take the initiative to smell it like this?"
Cheng Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Why did the murderer attack before two o'clock?"
Liu Manman felt confused. Didn't you say this yourself just now?
"Because the effect of the incense will weaken after a certain period of time, Little Green Tea may struggle before dying, thus alerting other people!"
Cheng Yu nodded and said: "So, the time when the incense is most effective is already so short. Do you think that after a night with the windows open, the incense still has the power to make us both happy?"
The effect of making an adult faint? If that were the case, it wouldn’t be the incense, and there would be no need to kill people with a knife. Just throw some incense into the room, and everything in the room that is breathing will be directly poisoned to death."
Well……
Liu Manman knew that he had once again demonstrated his rare stupidity in front of Cheng Yu.
Well, it must be because women who fall in love become stupid.
Cheng Yu couldn't hear Liu Manman's thoughts, otherwise he would definitely be shocked.
"Go open the door and see if there is any special smell in the bedroom." Cheng Yu pointed in the direction of the bedroom and asked Liu Manman to join him.
After opening the door, Cheng Yu and Liu Manman walked in sniffling like two dogs.
However, the smell of blood in the room was so strong that Cheng Yu couldn't tell if it was mixed with some scent that had been there for so long.
Cheng Yu realized this quickly, so he stopped twitching his nose and just stood there quietly, looking at Liu Manman.
Liu Manman sniffed and walked around the bedroom, but soon chose to give up.
She and Cheng Yu shook their heads together, and they said almost in unison: "The smell of blood is too strong, I really can't smell it."
The strong smell of blood not only prevented the two of them from smelling other smells in the room, but also made them unable to stay in the room any longer.
Cheng Yu and Liu Manman coughed slightly and exited the bedroom.
"I came here just now. I didn't think the smell was that strong when you did the autopsy." Liu Manman kept fanning her nose with her hand.
Cheng Yu also nodded and said, "Well, I didn't feel the smell was so strong even when I was squatting in front of the corpse in the morning. Maybe it's because the window was closed and the smell of blood was trapped inside. And the bath towel was always there
Being pressed under the body, the smell was probably muffled and not released."
"That's all I can think of." Liu Manman sat on the sofa in the living room. This woman was really easy-going. She knew that this was the scene of a murder, but she didn't mind sitting down casually.
"But, Cheng Yu, have you ever found it strange why Little Green Tea's body was in such a posture? Since you judged that she had completely fallen into a coma when her carotid artery was cut, why did she appear in that kind of posture?
What about the posture? At first, I thought she was in a state of hallucination because she had lost her virginity, so no matter what kind of movements she made, it wasn’t actually too strange.”
Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "Not only is it a matter of posture, which I don't understand, but also why the murderer stuffed the blood-stained towel under her body. That should have been stuffed in, right?"
Liu Manman looked a little confused and said: "I'm not sure, but since Little Green Tea didn't struggle before she died, then the bath towel could only have been stuffed in by the murderer? This is really puzzling."
Cheng Yu leaned his body against the desk and thought about it carefully. He seemed to have thought of something, but he felt that he had not grasped the little clue.
"Also, if the murderer put the incense while he was checking the window and waited until after one o'clock to kill, there would be at least thirty or forty minutes in between. Why didn't Little Green Tea lie down on the bed to sleep?
At the bedside? Could it be that he fell down because of the incense? If that's the case, the weird posture can be explained."
When Cheng Yu heard this, it was like a flash of inspiration. He seemed to have finally caught something.
With his hands on the edge of the desk, Cheng Yu took a big step forward, and then cast his eyes on the bed in the bedroom.
"Look at that bed." Cheng Yu pointed in the direction of the bedroom.
"What happened to the bed?" Liu Manman was completely puzzled.
"Look at the quilt and pillow on the bed. Have you noticed that the quilt and pillow must have been used?"
Liu Manman rolled her eyes and replied angrily: "Nonsense, yesterday was already our second day on the island. It's not the first day that Little Green Tea has entered this room. Of course there are traces of use on her bed."
Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "But she is a person with extremely severe obsessive-compulsive disorder."
