"You mean there are shoe prints on the ground outside the window?" Anna followed Gu Chen's thoughts and looked over, even sticking her head out of the window.
However, after scanning around and finding nothing, Anna still asked Gu Chen for advice: "There is a lawn outside the window, and it rained heavily last night."
"Logically speaking, even if there are footprints, they have been almost washed away, but I haven't seen them now."
"I'm just assuming, or ruling it out." Gu Chen trailed off and pointed to the window sill: "I checked the window sill and there are no signs of friction."
"To be precise, there are no traces of scratches from shoes."
"If someone enters the house with the door locked, the open window is undoubtedly the best way to break through, but I found no traces of footprints on the window sill, and there are no traces of cleaning."
"This means...even if Zhou Ting kept the window open last night, no one entered the study from the window sill, right?" Anna asked.
Gu Chen took a deep breath: "That's it for now, and there are no traces of footprints on the lawn outside the window."
"Actually, what if it rains heavily? What should be left behind will still be left behind, but it doesn't."
"Gu Chen, are you ruling out the possibility that the suspected murderer entered through the window?"
Anna seemed to understand what Gu Chen meant.
Indeed, the door of the villa is locked, and the only person who can enter the room is undoubtedly the study room on the first floor.
According to the account given by nanny Dai Li, when she left Zhou Ting's house, she found candles lit in Zhou Ting's study and even the windows were open.
If no one entered the home, Zhou Ting's sudden death might have been an accident of her own.
He suffered a myocardial infarction caused by a sudden cold, but he died in his study because there was no one in the house to help him.
This reasoning seems to make sense.
However, while Gu Chen and Anna were discussing, Huang Zhifeng, the fiance of the deceased Zhou Ting, was also brought to the scene.
At this moment, compared to the excitement just now, Huang Zhifeng seemed a little calmer now. While looking at everyone, he no longer yelled.
But the body doesn’t lie…
Huang Zhifeng's legs were still trembling and his face was still pale.
"Huang Zhifeng." Gu Chen called him, and then Huang Zhifeng was brought back to reality from his state of mental dissociation.
"Gu...Officer Gu." Huang Zhifeng glanced at Gu Chen and his attitude became humble.
Gu Chen came to him in two steps and asked, "Did you have a fight with Zhou Ting last night?"
"Yes...yes." Huang Zhifeng glanced at the nanny Dai Li beside him.
Knowing that Delly was a witness last night, she didn't dare to talk too much.
"What was the reason for the quarrel?" Anna asked.
"Because...because, because of some trivial matters in life." Huang Zhifeng lowered his head slowly, not daring to look directly into Anna's eyes.
"Is it because of the debate competition?"
Gu Chen was also ruthless and directly exposed the problem openly.
At this moment, Huang Zhifeng's expression suddenly changed.
He knew that the nanny Dai Li had revealed the content of her quarrel with Zhou Ting last night to the police.
He looked into Gu Chen's eyes, his whole body was trembling, and he said weakly: "Since you know, why bother to ask, I am your defeated general, I...I admit it, can't...don't you allow me
Lose your temper and complain?”
"I just had a big fight with Zhou Ting because I lost the game and felt depressed, but...but, I didn't kill Zhou Ting at all."
"Were you the last one to leave Zhou Ting's room yesterday?" Gu Chen asked.
"Yes...really?" Huang Zhifeng looked at the crowd and had no confidence in what he said.
When Anna heard this, she also said angrily: "Yes, it means, no, it means no, what do you mean by 'right'? Don't you understand what we mean?"
"Police...Officer, I...I'm really not sure, because...because after I left, I didn't know who had been to Zhou Ting's room. Really, I just didn't know anything after I left,
I don’t know anyone else who’s been there.”
Unintentionally, Huang Zhifeng glanced at the crowd and quickly spotted the nanny Dai Li.
He immediately pointed at Delly and said: "Oh, by the way, Delly was the last one to leave Zhou Ting's house, she was the last one to leave."
"No...it's not." Huang Zhifeng suddenly mentioned it, and the nanny Dai Li looked like a cat with fried fur. She shrank back in fright: "Police...Officer, I am not the last one to go out."
"Anyway, you were still there when I left Zhou Ting's house, and I didn't know about it after that." Huang Zhifeng also insisted, which caught the nanny Delly off guard and almost made her cry.
Delly quickly came to Gu Chen and Anna and complained: "Officer, I was not the last one to leave home. Didn't I tell you before? I was going to leave and change my shoes at the door."
"At that time, Huang Zhifeng walked out of the house in a hurry, so I lagged behind. But as for what happened in the study, I didn't know anything. I changed my shoes and left."
"Then...then I'm not the last one to leave." Huang Zhifeng also quickly defended.
The two began to blame each other, which made the study immediately lively.
"Okay, don't argue anymore, please be quiet." Anna walked between the two of them and told them to shut up as soon as possible.
Then he turned around and asked Huang Zhifeng again: "Judging from the current situation, you should have been the last one to leave the study last night. Then tell me, what was Zhou Ting doing when you left the study yesterday?"
The more detailed the better.”
"Zhou Ting? She..." Huang Zhifeng lowered his head and thought silently for a few seconds before adding: "We had an argument and I was in a bad mood, so I said I should go back and calm down. Zhou Ting told me to get out, and she picked up the
The files on the table seem to be continuing work."
"There is no electricity and she relies on candles to work. This Zhou Ting is really a workaholic." Yuan Shasha couldn't help but murmured after listening to Huang Zhifeng's words.
However, Gu Chen was suddenly reminded. His eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly looked around: "Yes, there was a power outage last night. Zhou Ting lit candles, but why didn't I see candles here?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Candle?" Anna was also shocked when she heard this.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other and began to look for traces of candles.
A sudden reminder made everyone alert.
But at this moment, a young Italian policeman raised his hand weakly and said: "The wax...the candle was originally on the table. I picked it up and checked it when I entered the scene. At that time, George asked me to help.
, so...so, so I just put it on the dining table at the door."
"What did you say?" George heard this and pointed at the young police officer on the spot and shouted angrily: "What did I tell you? The items on site cannot be moved casually, but how can you take the items on site to other places? You
are you crazy?"
"Qiao...George, don't get excited. I was a little distracted at the time, and you were calling me again, so I didn't realize it at the time, so I just..."
"Okay, okay, don't pursue this anymore." Anna looked at the young police officer and said, "Go get the things."
"Yes." Seeing that he had gotten into trouble, the young police officer did not dare to neglect him and ran out of the study in a hurry.
Not long after, he walked up to everyone with a wax stand.
Gu Chen took the lead in taking the wax stand from the young police officer. After observing it from side to side, he asked: "There are people who store candles and wax stands in ordinary people's homes. Are there frequent power outages in this area?"
"Occasionally." Daili, the nanny on the side, said, "The lines in this area have experienced several major faults, so there were always power outages during that time."
"The surrounding residents were very angry about this and complained to the power company several times. Therefore, in order to quell the public's anger, the power company sent some candles and candlesticks door to door, saying that they would let everyone deal with it for a few days until the power fault was eliminated.
"
"So since then, I have had more of these things at home, just for emergencies. But I didn't expect there was a power outage last night, so I used them."
Listening to nanny Delly's words, Anna looked up at her and said, "Zhou Ting has an old problem of myocardial infarction, right?"
"Yes." Nanny Delly nodded slightly.
"That means Zhou Ting's myocardial infarction was caused by a sudden cold?" Anna asked again.
"Yes, the personal doctor has repeatedly reminded Zhou Ting to pay attention to this aspect, so I think it should be." Nanny Dai Li said.
Anna looked at the candle on the candle stand. The wax dripped along the candle and piled up into an even ball on the candle stand. She couldn't help but said: "I think we should take this candle for testing to see if it is
It contains highly toxic substances, what do you think?"
"I agree with Anna." Officer George took the lead: "The probability of myocardial infarction caused by a sudden cold is very low, but it just happened. I think the possibility of it being a coincidence is very low."
"And if it is confirmed that Zhou Ting died of poisoning, that would be a different matter, right? Officer Gu? Eh? Officer Gu... Officer Gu?"
George originally wanted to discuss with Gu Chen, but found that Gu Chen was no longer around. After searching around in the crowd, he found that Gu Chen had disappeared.
"Where is Gu Chen?" Officer George looked confused.
"You were here... just now." Anna also looked around, feeling as if Gu Chen had disappeared out of thin air.
Lu Weiwei was also stunned, and quickly asked Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha: "Has any of you seen Junior Brother Gu?"
"I didn't see it." Yuan Shasha shook her head.
Officer Wang was also puzzled: "But he was still here just now, why did he suddenly disappear? Where did this guy go?"
"Officer Gu!"
"Gu Chen!"
"Where are you?"
For a while, the crowd in the study kept shouting, and it seemed that Gu Chen disappeared out of thin air, which was a bit strange.
However, not long after, Gu Chen appeared at the door again: "I'm here."
"Junior Brother Gu." Lu Weiwei trotted all the way to Gu Chen and asked weakly: "Where did you run just now? We are all looking for you."
"I just went to check somewhere else." Gu Chen crossed his arms, lowered his head and walked to the middle of the crowd.
Gu Chen did not answer immediately, but looked up at the crowd and said, "Okay, everyone, come with me."
After the words fell, Gu Chen walked directly out of the door.
"What's wrong with Gu Chen?"
"I don't know? Did he discover something?"
"This guy is so mysterious, what is he doing?"
"Stop guessing, follow us and take a look before we talk."
All the police officers at the scene looked at each other and directly followed Gu Chen's footsteps to the outside of the villa.
At this moment, Gu Chen was standing by the garden, crossing his arms and looking in the direction of the study.
Everyone who came later also gathered around Gu Chen, following Gu Chen's gaze and staring at the study.
"Did you see anything?" Gu Chen reminded the crowd around him.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
After everyone looked at each other, they all started to join in looking for trouble.
After some thought, Lu Weiwei took the lead and said: "On the whole, apart from the traces of the house being wet by rain, there is nothing special about it."
"By the way, this is what I want." Gu Chen looked at Lu Weiwei and said with a smile.
"Just...that's it?" Lu Weiwei didn't understand, and quickly asked again: "Junior brother Gu, what do you want to say?"
"Yes, Gu Chen, is there anything wrong with this?" Anna on the side was also a little anxious.
Gu Chen took his time and pointed at the villa and said: "Judging from the appearance, this villa was built a long time ago, and many materials are relatively old, including the walls, which have obvious traces of being painted."
"Yes, this villa has a history of several decades. If it weren't for the good location, many people would not choose to live here."
"But because of the existence of housing renovation and decoration companies, many old villas have been renovated. Zhou Ting bought this villa not long ago. I heard that it was quite old at the time, so I had people renovate the walls and other things.
It hasn’t changed much.”
Nanny Delly said the same thing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Gu Chen did not deny it, just nodded and said: "Actually, that's not the point I'm talking about. I just feel that the wall paint is a bit cut corners.
Even if rain hits the wall, it will still leave deep marks.”
As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Officer George walked up the first few steps and said, "Yes, the rainwater still left deep marks on the wall."
Looking back at Gu Chen, Officer George asked again: "But, what do you want to say?"
"The direction the rain is hitting." Gu Chen said.
"Floating direction?" Officer George frowned and turned his attention to the villa again.
After careful observation, he said: "Judging from the traces of rainwater, it should be in the direction of the study."
"You're right, Officer George, then let's go into the house with me now." Gu Chen was mysterious and left the garden again.
Everyone was puzzled, but they didn't know what Gu Chen wanted to express, so a group of people followed Gu Chen's steps again and came to the living room together.
This time Gu Chen did not go to the study, but went to the room next door to the study where sundries were kept.
The utility room is located side by side with the study. It is a small space and does not have too many decorations. Most of the items stored in it are repair tools and waste products.
Gu Chen came to the window, pointed directly at the window sill and said, "I checked this room. The windows are usually not opened in utility rooms, so the heavy rain last night did not hit the window."
"But because this villa is a bit old, the windows are not made of aluminum alloy but wooden, so..."
Without saying a word, Gu Chen directly opened the iron bolt of the window with his gloved hands, then stepped aside and said, "Everyone can take a look at the condition of the window inside and outside."
Officer George frowned and glanced at Anna next to him. He felt a little confused, so he walked to Gu Chen's side first and checked the inside and outside of the window.
"The wooden windows are indeed old." Officer George looked at both sides and introduced to everyone: "There is nothing wrong with it inside. The wooden frames outside are all wet."
He touched the outside of the window with his hand: "Well, it's still wet."
"Okay, Officer George, you can go to the study next door and take another look." After Gu Chen said that, he walked out of the crowd and came to the scene of the crime.
At this moment, the smart police officer had roughly guessed Gu Chen's intention. Yuan Shasha took the lead to go to the window sill of the study, opened the fixed latch, folded the single-sided window back, and checked the inside and outside of the wooden window. She was surprised.
one time.
"This... this is the same as the window in the next room just now. Only the outside is severely soaked, but the inside is dry."
"What? Is it dry on the inside?" Officer George, who had not understood what Gu Chen meant before, quickly walked over to Yuan Shasha and checked again to verify it.
Seeing this scene, Officer George also laughed, turned back to Gu Chen and said: "Officer Gu, I know what you mean, do you want to say that this window was not opened at all last night?
"
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "The window must have not been opened. It can be seen from the impact of the rain on the window sill."
"If the windows were opened last night, then based on the impact of the rain, the inside and outside of the wooden windows should have been soaked, but what we saw was not."
"And I also checked the window sill, and there was no trace of it being wet."
Looking back at the nanny Dai Li, Gu Chen smiled calmly: "But this is interesting. Ms. Dai Li told me that she left Zhou Ting's house last night and found that the window of Zhou Ting's study was open and there were candles lit.
at work."
"And Ms. Dai Li came to Zhou Ting's house early this morning and found that Zhou Ting was dead in the study. The important thing is that the window was open."
"Then this is very interesting. Who opened the window? Or did Ms. Daili open the window after she came to Zhou Ting's study?"
"this……"
When Gu Chen suddenly asked, the nanny Dai Li's face turned blue, and she was so frightened that she couldn't help but take two steps back.
At this moment, all the police officers on the scene, following Gu Chen's prompts, all looked at Delly.
"Are you lying?" Lu Weiwei took a step forward and pointed at Delly.
"I...I didn't, I didn't lie, I didn't."
Compared to before, Delly was obviously a little panicked at this moment.
She looked around, eager to defend herself: "You... let me think about it, let me think about it again, this... this must be a mistake on your part, it must be."
"Or am I mistaken? No, please give me some time, please."
