Chen Shu leaned over, took the mouse on the table, clicked a few times on the file containing "Amei Zheng" on the computer screen, and retrieved the video of the crime scene.
As the screen window is opened, the scene at that time begins to play back.
"Brother Shu, what are you looking at?" As the person involved, Jiang Hai felt a little strange when he saw that the video was opened. It was the video of the three of them entering the crime scene for the first time in the hotel corridor.
"The Conan book must have been discovered at the crime scene." Chen Chuan was not interested in the content of the video, but that didn't stop him from teasing everyone, "Tsk, tsk, there are only three of us at the scene. There is no way your book brother can investigate himself.
, Xiaohai and I are the only ones left. Tsk tsk, Xiaohai, do you think it’s because you’re interested in sex?”
"Brother Chuan!"
Jiang Hai blushed with anger, but after a few days of getting along with him, he really couldn't do anything about this careless senior brother, and he was always joking regardless of the occasion.
I heard that in the Dongzhou City Bureau, apart from the elders and executive officers of the city bureau, this senior fellow also ridiculed all other policemen and even senior police officers equally.
No wonder I’m still a section clerk so many years after graduation!
Jiang Hai was dissatisfied, but what he didn't know was that privately, this senior brother he looked down on was enjoying himself very much in the game.
If you think about it carefully, would the person who can even be teased as a friend by the deputy director be an ordinary cow horse?
Sometimes you can tell how others are getting along with their leaders by listening to the tone and names they use when chatting with each other.
A relationship where you can joke around is unusual, especially when Chen Chuan is the kind of person who can talk nonsense when they meet, and even give people nicknames along the way, that is an incredibly close relationship.
Zhu Yiba knew that Chen Chuan liked to tease people. To say that Jiang Hai was a suspect was even more false than the sun rising from the west.
However, he was the first to react at this moment. After all, besides the three of them, there was another person at the scene.
Zhu Yiba's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Chen Da, are you doubting that hotel cleaner! That aunt in her forties or fifties!"
Under Zhu Yiba's reminder, everyone held their breath and stared at the scene that was repeatedly played back on the screen in which the cleaning staff found the body after entering the door and immediately called for help.
To be honest, they didn't see anything fishy.
After watching the video several times, Chen Shu called up the video of the hotel corridor ten days ago, fast in and out on the progress bar, four times faster, then nine days ago, eight days ago, seven days ago, until the case.
Shipped on the same day.
Finally, Secretary Chen, who straightened up, took a long breath and sat back on the chair.
As soon as the other people heard this call, they knew that the backbone had been established. They all took a long breath and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
The young Jiang Hai was not shy and expressed his confusion in person: "Brother Shu, I don't see anything wrong in these videos."
Zhu Yiba, who also didn't notice the problem, frowned and said nothing.
Chen Chuan, who had no interest in the case, crossed his arms and watched with interest what his old classmate would do next.
Ma Rongcheng, who was sitting on the chair, grabbed the armrests of the chair with both hands and stood up involuntarily, feeling a little nervous that he had not seen for a long time.
People like them who are engaged in technical investigation have not experienced this kind of scene of reasoning and solving crimes for a long time, but the title of expert means that he can only remain silent.
Chen Shu did not try to be mysterious. He first switched the video surveillance to the scene ten days ago of Zheng Amei pushing a health cart in the corridor.
Click, pause, and then zoom in.
Chen Shu pointed at Zheng Amei's hands on the screen and said in a deep voice: "Look at her hands. Are they not wearing gloves?"
The hotel camera does not have a high-definition lens, so the captured image is rather blurry. I am not sure whether Zheng Amei is wearing gloves, but the position of the other person's hands looks like the color of her skin.
Then nine days ago, eight days ago, and until the day before the incident, Zheng Amei's hands were basically yellow. She passed under the camera several times, but she didn't wear gloves.
In this way, it can be roughly inferred that Zheng Amei did not wear gloves for even a second in the nine days before the incident, and it was Chi Guo who started the cleaning work.
Then, Chen Shu switched the video to the day of the crime, and then converted the video speed to normal speed.
The corridor was quiet that day. Only Zheng A-mei was walking along the corridor pushing a cleaning cart filled with towels, slippers and other hotel supplies and cleaning tools.
"His! It turned white!"
Jiang Hai gasped. The cleaning lady who appeared in the video was wearing a pair of white gloves on her hands!
Zhu Yiba questioned loudly: "What a coincidence? It was worn on the day of death?"
Huang Mao immediately echoed: "There must be something wrong! This man must be a murderer! Platoon leader, I'm going to arrest him right away!"
Jiang Hai pinched his chin and directly regarded Zheng Amei as a suspect, thinking hard: "Does this mean you don't want your fingerprints to be left in the room? But it doesn't make sense logically. It doesn't make sense. She is a hotel cleaner, so she should leave some fingerprints.
Is it normal in the room?
"But in the ten days of working here, I didn't wear gloves for nine days, but I put them on on the morning of the day of the crime. It's hard not to make people suspect that she is the murderer... The secret room is for people who don't have room cards.
It can be called a secret room."
With a snap, Jiang Hai clapped his hands suddenly and said firmly: "She is the murderer!"
Chen Chuan was smiling all over his face, but what he said was like a knife piercing the junior brother next to him who was inspiring to become an excellent detective.
"Xiaohai, have you forgotten what our horse expert said?"
Hearing the unreliable senior brother's words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body, and asked in a trembling voice: "What... what... what are you talking about?"
Chen Chuan tilted his head slightly and said with a smile on his face: "The nature of the camouflaged shoe prints that appear indoors is that big feet wear small shoes. Look at this eldest sister's body shape. Doesn't she look like someone with big feet?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jiang Hai suddenly became sluggish like a deflated ball.
Chen Chuan smiled happily. He liked to see Jiang Hai's ups and downs of emotions. He was so funny, just like Chen Shu when they were still studying in the police academy.
Expert Ma Rongcheng agreed with Chen Chuan's opinion, but he was even more surprised and admired that Chen Shu's unique investigative thinking could actually connect these two completely unrelated things.
He subconsciously glanced at the policeman from another province standing beside him. Under the incandescent light, Officer Chen's Chinese-character face was cold and serious.
Chen Shu did not pause the video to provide relevant explanations, but simply allowed the video to continue playing along the timeline until the door of the deceased's room was opened.
Pressing the space bar with a "click" to pause, Chen Shu then cut the video into a specific timeline, that is, the scene from when Zheng Amei entered the corridor to opening the door, and played it repeatedly.
"Did you see anything?" Chen Shu knocked on the table and asked.
Everyone shook their heads.
After a while, Jiang Hai was the first to react: "It seems...it seems like this cleaning lady has been stalling for time?"
Chen Shu snapped his fingers and affirmed: "That's right! When I discovered this situation, I just thought she was waiting for time. Because during the on-site inquiry, the housekeeper named Zheng Amei told me that the deceased asked her to
I came here early in the morning to clean up. So, when I saw her grinding and chirping in the corridor, I wondered if she was waiting for the time requested by the deceased."
"But..." Jiang Hai followed Chen Shu's thoughts and explored step by step, "But there is no need to stand in the corridor and wait. Doesn't this affect the passage of guests? If it is just to wait for time, she can completely wait in the corridor.
Wait in the linen room in the corner, where you can play with your phone while hiding from the camera!"
Chen Shu nodded: "Correct. This is the first doubt. Continue."
Being affirmed by the person he admired, Jiang Hai naturally became more confident and continued to speculate on the reason: "But why is she waiting in the corridor?"
As he spoke, Jiang Hai pointed to the monitor showing Zheng Amei looking toward the end of the corridor: "I noticed that she seemed to have been looking in that direction, well, several times."
"Very good." Chen Shu helped Jiang Hai and added, "That direction is the location of the hotel elevator."
"Elevator..." Jiang Hai murmured, as if there was a firefly floating around in his mind. He wanted to catch it, but he couldn't catch it many times. The firefly was still flying everywhere slowly.
Then, Xiao Jianghai in his mind suddenly jumped up and reached out to grab it.
Snap, caught!
"Elevator!" Jiang Hai's eyes shone and he jumped up, "Brother Shu! I know! I know! She is waiting for someone to come! She is waiting for someone to come! This proves that she is just the first person to open the door and enter!
Well someone else entered the room at about the same time as her!"
"This is the second point of suspicion." Chen Shu nodded happily, then canceled the repeat playback of the video, and the video started playing at the position where it was previously stopped.
In the video, Zheng Amei opened the room and entered the house with her right hand wearing a white glove, then let out a scream, and then Chen Shu led people into the crime scene.
Chen Shu took this paragraph as the standard and started playing it repeatedly.
"Is there a third doubt?" After the ecstasy, Jiang Hai calmed down instantly, and frowned as he stared at the second video captured by Chen Shu.
This is a scene of only five or six seconds. The content is that Zheng Amei opened the door and entered the room, and then suddenly screamed to attract the three people who came out of the elevator earlier.
By the way, these three people are Chen Shu, Chen Chuan and Jiang Hai who came back from eating mutton soup.
For a long time, no one found the problem.
"Hurry up, Shu, tell me quickly!" Chen Chuan couldn't bear it and urged.
"Time, time is abnormal." Chen Shu paused the video, then pointed to the timeline and said, "When the person entered the room, it took five or six seconds before he screamed. This time is too long."
Jiang Hai, whose eyes were almost attached to the monitor, clasped his hands together and said, "I understand. The body is hanging next to the toilet door. Most people will see the body hanging on the door frame immediately after entering the door! It is impossible to pass six
It takes seconds to scream!”
Ma Rongcheng asked: "Is it possible that after entering the house, the cleaner answered a phone call at the door, or did something else that we couldn't see on the surveillance, so it was delayed."
Chen Shu finally smiled and said, "I just want to know what she did in these six seconds."
