"?" The Mumu Police Department didn't know what the shoes had to do with the murderer, but since this was what Brother Jiang Xia asked, he honestly wrote down the clues and marked the key points.
Then he looked at the man in suit who had been to the balcony: "What about you? Why did you stand next to the body when everyone came?"
The man in the suit thought for a while: "I should have come before 5 o'clock, because I made an appointment with the deceased to meet at 5 o'clock."
The security guard was like a ruthless monitor: "The time this gentleman arrived at the foyer was 4:58 pm to be precise."
"Look, I'm not lying." The man in the suit smiled at the police, and then said, "As Mrs. Imoto said just now, I came here today to borrow money from Imoto.
"When I came, Jingmoto was changing into his sportswear. I politely asked him to borrow money, but he rejected me very directly.
"It was impossible for my club to survive like this, so after leaving his house, I went up to the rooftop. I climbed out of the railing and stood outside."
Mu Mu Police Department: "???"
What do you want to do, kid? Live well and don’t cause trouble to the police!
The man in the suit sighed: "I wanted to commit suicide at the time, but seeing the ground so high, I finally didn't have the courage to jump off, so I climbed back to the rooftop."
Mu Mu Police Department: "..." Not bad, not bad...
Man in suit: "I leaned against the railing, quietly looking at the scenery in the distance, thinking about life. But not long after, I heard Mrs. Imoto's shrill scream from the other side of the building.
"I was startled by the movement and hurried back to Imoto's house to check the situation, but Mrs. Imoto was not in the house. I could only see a foot on the balcony. I walked over curiously... and then found that Imoto had already
Dead."
Mumu Police Department: "..." If this experience is true, it would be really thrilling...
He glanced at the man who almost committed suicide, hesitated for a moment and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he turned to the last person among the three. He asked the mustache who lived on the fifth floor: "What about you?"
"Me?" Mustached Hu said in confusion, "I do have a motive, but when the murder occurred, I was not in the building at all."
The security guard flipped through his notebook: "Mr. Terasawa left at 4:50 p.m., and he came back at 5:12 p.m. just behind the detective."
The mustache breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the security guard gratefully: "Look, I don't have time to commit the crime at all."
The security guard did not accept his grateful look and stabbed him coldly: "But I remember when Mr. Terasawa left, he said he was going to practice golf and was carrying a golf bag...Golf takes a long time, why are you so so?
Have you come back long ago?"
"You kid." The corner of the mustache's eyes twitched slightly, "Isn't it normal for people's ideas and plans to change? I wanted to chat with you politely, but you actually went online... After so many years, I
Don’t you know who he is? I’m easily swayed, so what if I don’t want to play golf at the moment?”
Seeing that someone was about to start a quarrel again, Mumu Police Department felt a headache and tried to start a fight: "Okay, okay, since you were really not in the building at that time, you should just go and stay nearby."
This means there is no suspicion.
The mustached man was amnesty and quickly moved to the side to make room for the police officer to perform.
The Mumu Police Department looked at the remaining two people again, hesitating: "As for you, one of you must have lied.
"——For example, Mrs. Imoto, you said that after you came here, you went to the bathroom first. But in fact, you may not have gone to the bathroom at all. Instead, you killed the deceased in those two minutes, and then screamed, pretending that you just
An ordinary witness.
"For another example, Mr. Dohashi, you said that you went to the rooftop after being rejected by the deceased, but maybe you just hid on the balcony at that time. The balcony has a blind spot, so Mrs. Imoto who entered the house later did not see you, but she
After going to the toilet, you picked up the flowerpot and killed the deceased."
The two were stunned.
"Wait, I'm not lying!" After coming to his senses, the man in the suit said quickly, "Didn't Mrs. Imoto also say that when she came here, there was only one pair of shoes at the door - I must have gone to the rooftop by then
.”
"Don't worry yet." Jiang Xia suddenly said, "Tell us about your experience on the rooftop in detail. Maybe this can help us find evidence that you were not present when the murder occurred."
"Okay." The man in the suit sighed and tried to calm down, "It's a pity that there was no one else on the rooftop when I went up, otherwise I could have asked that person to help me prove it... But, strange to say, there was obviously no one, but
That's when I heard some strange noises."
"What sound"
Man in suit: "It should be a metal collision sound like 'Clang!' with echo. Hiss, think about it carefully, the place where the sound came from seems to be the balcony of this room."
Jiang Xia: "Is there just one sound?"
The man in the suit tried to remember, and then suddenly realized that the detective seemed to understand him better than himself: "There was more than one sound! There was a similar sound after that, but the volume seemed to be slightly lower."
"That's right." Jiang Xia walked to the balcony, and when passing by the "new doctor", she took out the pen in her pocket.
Soon he stopped next to the railing and tapped the railing with the metal part of the pen cap.
There is a "ding" sound.
The man in the suit was stunned for a moment and said excitedly: "Yes, that's the kind of sound quality!"
Belmode touched her empty handkerchief bag: "..." Tsk, she quite likes that pen... Now that it has been touched by this child, it seems that she has to change it, otherwise there is no guarantee that there won't be more secretly on it.
What a bad mechanism.
Mumu Police Department followed him to the balcony and looked at the place where Jiang Xia knocked, and suddenly realized something was wrong. He leaned over in surprise and looked closely at the railing: "Why are there two gaps? It looks quite new. This... pen shouldn't be able to knock.
Come out?"
...or is it that Brother Jiang Xia has knocked on people too many times, practice makes perfect, and he can break the railing with a pen?
"Of course it wasn't the pen that hit it." The client who was thinking about it interrupted his whimsical thoughts, "It was the murderer's weapon."
"?!"
The Mu Mu Police Department reacted and suddenly became surprised: "Brother Jiang Xia, do you know who the murderer is?"
Jiang Xia raised his finger and pointed at the abandoned building opposite: "Just go over there and take a look."
A group of people: "...?"
…
The murderer who died on the balcony here was actually related to the roof of the building dozens of meters away.
It sounds unbelievable, but because it was Jiang Xia who suggested going there, the Mu Mu Police Department waved their hands and rushed over with their people.
Soon, the group of people arrived at the rooftop of the opposite building.
