Lin Qianyi said: "Si Jiu, I know you must be suspecting that this incident may have nothing to do with Professor Tang, but the testimony of Li Shengli and Officer Mu is irrefutable. Li Shengli may lie to us, but Mu Shengli
But you can’t help but believe what the police officer said.”
"Sister Lin, I know..." I lowered my head and said a little discouraged.
However, as soon as I finished speaking, I heard Lin Qianyi suddenly say "but".
I immediately raised my head and listened to her continue: "Speaking of which, regarding this incident, I actually have two doubts that I haven't told Officer Hu just now. It's not that I don't want to talk about it, but these two doubts, even myself
I can’t understand it either.”
I quickly asked her: "Sister Lin, what's the suspicion?"
Lin Qianyi said: "The first doubt is the set of footprints I found. Although I just told you that the footprints belong to a third person besides Officer Mu and Li Shengli, I'm afraid you don't know that set of footprints
, it’s actually a set of barefoot prints…”
"Barefoot prints?" I asked in surprise.
"Yes, the person who attacked Officer Mu and Li Shengli didn't seem to be wearing shoes. And the footprints were a little strange. There was some sticky liquid like mucus on them. I don't know what it was."
A sticky liquid like mucus? When I heard Lin Qianyi's description, I always felt as if I had seen something similar there, but this idea only appeared in my mind for a short while and then I threw it away.
Finally, I turned to ask: "Sister Lin, since it is a barefoot print, how can we tell this person's figure?"
Lin Qianyi said: "Judging from the footprints, this person should be a male, between 1.7 and 1.8 meters tall. He weighs about 140 kilograms."
"Is that so?" I scratched my head, feeling a little disappointed, because the figure of the third person that Lin Qianyi deduced from the footprints was exactly the same as the figure of Professor Tang that I saw.
Could it be that Professor Tang really did what happened this time? I feel wrong again. This alone cannot prove that the attacker is Professor Tang, because there are too many people who fit this figure. At the very least, Officer Mu
The body shape is also consistent with Lin Qianyi's reasoning about the body shape of the footprint owner. Therefore, it is not possible to draw a conclusion just based on one footprint.
I shook my head, threw what I just thought of behind my head, and asked Lin Qianyi: "Sister Lin, is there another doubt? What else did you find over there?"
"The other one?" Lin Qianyi suddenly hesitated, thought for a moment, and then said, "This doubt is not about what I discovered at the scene, but something we noticed when we were at the scene of the incident just now.
Sijiu, did you notice that Li Shengli had a knife wound on his body?"
"Yes." I thought of the knife wounds on Li Shengli's wrist and said, "He said those were all done by Professor Tang."
"Professor Tang?" Lin Qianyi frowned, "Sijiu, this is strange, because I think that knife wound looks like it was inflicted by Li Shengli himself?"
"Did you do it yourself?" I asked with my mouth wide open.
"Yes, although there were many knife wounds on Li Shengli's body, they were all on the inside of his wrist. If I told him that he was scratched by Professor Tang with a dagger, then the situation at that time would be a bit strange."
As she spoke, Lin Qianyi suddenly took a step forward and approached me almost face to face.
Smelling her fragrance, I suddenly panicked and wanted to step back, but Lin Qianyi grabbed my hands and said, "Don't move!"
I had no choice but to stiffen my body and let her control me. But I soon discovered that Lin Qianyi had a deeper meaning when she did this. I saw her grabbing my hand and raising it up, parallel to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, she used her palms as swords and made several gestures on my hands.
"Look, if Li Shengli's stab wound was really caused by someone else, then unless he and the attacker were in the same position as us at the time, the stab wound on his hand cannot be explained."
"That's right!" I looked at my hands. Indeed, when people are attacked, they will subconsciously use their hands to protect themselves, and in most cases, the parts used to protect themselves are the backs of their hands.
position. But Li Shengli’s stab wounds were all on the inside of his arm.
The wound would be in his current position. Unless when the incident occurred, between Li Shengli and the attacker, Qian Yi and I were almost hugging each other, otherwise he could only have scratched himself with a dagger.
Own.
In other words, Li Shengli's injuries were most likely caused by himself!
Thinking of this, I immediately admired Lin Qianyi's reasoning ability.
However, she told me that the flaws in Li Shengli's wound could actually be seen by an experienced police officer like Officer Hu, but probably because care leads to confusion, Officer Hu had already identified Professor Tang because of Officer Mu's testimony.
This is why he didn't notice Li Shengli's flaw.
After listening to Lin Qianyi's explanation, I asked: "So, Li Shengli really has a problem?"
Lin Qianyi shook her head: "No, this can only mean that Li Shengli may be hiding something from us, but it does not mean that he did it. After all, with the testimony of Officer Mu, the fact that the attacker was Professor Tang has already been solved
It’s obvious.”
"But why does this Li Shengli want to hide something from us again and again? I always feel that there must be something wrong with him!"
"Si Jiu, don't be too impatient." Lin Qianyi patted me on the shoulder and comforted me, "Things will eventually come to light. Li Shengli has actually hidden it from us twice, and there will definitely be a third time.
What we have to do now is not to alert the snake, but to be more vigilant and keep an eye on him. As for Professor Tang, you have to be careful. Now the facts are in front of us. The biggest threat to us is not Li Shengli, but him. I
I don’t know why he left you a blood warning, but if Professor Tang approaches you again next time, you must be careful and promise me, okay?”
"I will, Sister Lin." I nodded and agreed to Lin Qianyi's request.
Back at the temporary camp, the others had already started eating dinner again.
To what Lin Qianyi and I expected, Officer Mu's injury didn't look very serious, because at this time, he actually had the strength to eat something.
When we came back, we saw Officer Hu coming out happily holding an iron lunch box. Seeing us, he happily shook the empty lunch box in front of us and said, "Ms. Lin, you handle it."
The wound technique is really great. Heimuo's wound has improved very well, and now he has the appetite to eat. You see, he drank a bowl of vegetable soup and even asked me to give him another bowl.
.”
Lin Qianyi was a little surprised and said: "Really? But I just gave him a normal bandage?"
Officer Hu was stunned for a moment, but then he said: "That's probably because of his physical condition, right? You see, that guy is usually dark and strong, and his recovery ability is probably much better than ordinary people... By the way, you guys should come over quickly.
Let’s eat. Li Shengli and the others have almost finished the vegetable soup. If you don’t hurry up, you’ll have to eat canned food today.”
With that said, Officer Hu took us to the campfire. We were slowly eating a large pot of vegetable soup, but as expected, most of it had been eaten. When we came, we happened to see Li Shengli, who was like a starving ghost, eating himself up in one mouthful.
I drank most of the soup in the bowl, and then I wanted to pour another bowl.
Officer Hu patted his hand and said, "Hey, what's going on with you? Comrade Lin and I haven't eaten yet!"
"I'm sorry." Li Shengli smiled and said, "Today's soup is so delicious. I really can't help it."
"You have to endure it! If you're hungry, just heat up the canned food yourself!"
Officer Hu chased away Li Shengli like a fly, and then gave each of us a bowl of hot soup, letting us eat first, while he trotted off to deliver the soup to Officer Mu.
Seeing Officer Hu leave, I took a sip of the hot soup. The vegetable soup was bland and tasteless, and the dehydrated vegetables soaked in it had been cooked to pieces and had no texture at all. I was a little strange and didn't know what was wrong with Li Shengli.
This broken soup is almost like pig food. If I weren't trapped here and couldn't be too particular, I wouldn't even take a bite. Why did Li Shengli say that this soup was delicious just now?
