"You're back?"

"Hmm. ”

After hearing a sound of footsteps, Shen Tingyu immediately stood up from the desk, trotted all the way to the door and opened the door in advance.

"How about it, have fun?" Shen Tingyu looked at Luo Chuan with a smile.

"It's good, just had a meal and relaxed, is there anything new during my absence?" Luo Chuan put his coat on the hanger at the door, then turned around and walked to the desk and sat down.

"No, but Director Wang came once, and when he saw that you were not there, he left, and I asked her what was the matter, and she said that there was nothing wrong. Shen Tingyu thought for a while and said.

"I'd better ask for myself. Luo Chuan took out the phone and dialed Wang Yue's number uneasily, only to see that the ringtone in the mobile phone rang quickly, and Wang Yue quickly connected the phone.

"What's the matter with me?"

"What?"

"Didn't you come to my office to look for me?"

"Ah, it's nothing, I just want to go and see you. ”

“......”

"Where did you just go?"

"Went out for a meal with friends. ”

"Why don't you take me?"

“......”

"Okay, just kidding, how is the case, is there any progress?" Wang Yue said with a smile.

"Yes. Luo Chuan nodded a little excitedly.

"What's the progress?" Wang Yue's tone also raised a little.

"I'll tell you in the evening, I'll need to study it for a while now. ”

"Okay, contact me as soon as you have a new discovery. ”

"That's nature. ”

After hanging up the phone, Shen Tingyu came over curiously.

"You said there was a new discovery?" Shen Tingyu looked at Luo Chuan's face with a pair of beautiful eyes without blinking, and a little excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Well, I went to dinner with a few friends today, and one of the fat men woke me up with a word, and this detail was ignored by all of us. ”

"Can you tell me about it?"

"Yes, we were supposed to ......"

"I'm hungry......"

"Huh?"

"I didn't know you would come back so late, I wanted to wait for you to go and eat with me. Shen Tingyu stuck out her tongue mischievously like a child who had done something wrong.

"It's okay, let's go out for a bite to eat, I'll just tell you on the way." Luo Chuan bowed his hand, and then stood up from the chair in front of his desk.

"Really, but will this delay your original trip......" Shen Tingyu was a little excited at first, and then his expression darkened.

"No, otherwise this time is also the time to eat, and you can't starve yourself to death in order to solve the case. Luo Chuan said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go!"

......

"We went to Cheng Qian's hot pot restaurant for dinner, and then the waiter took us to the second floor, and there were two empty rooms opposite each other in front of us, and the fat man pointed to one of the rooms, and we entered the room according to his wishes. ”

After that, because I was eating hot pot, the room was still relatively stuffy, so I naturally felt a little uncomfortable with heat, and then Xiao Yusi complained that I blamed the fat man for choosing this room, and it was hot. ”

Originally, it was nothing, but the fat man explained a sentence that made me react to one thing instantly. ”

"What's the matter?" Shen Tingyu couldn't help but ask curiously.

At this time, Shen Tingyu and Luo Chuan were strolling on the side of the street, the weather at night was a little cool, Shen Tingyu had to clamp his clothes, and gently held Luo Chuan's arm with his left hand, but Luo Chuan was immersed in the analysis of the case, and did not seem to notice this small detail of Shen Tingyu.

He said, I saw that there was an air conditioner in this room, and the other room had nothing to choose this one, so how did I know that the air conditioner in this room was a furnishing and was not activated at all. ”

After Luo Chuan said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he turned to look at Shen Tingyu, looking forward to her thoughts and answers.

"Well......" Shen Tingyu pondered, this sentence is a plain sentence, and there is no problem in saying it from the perspective that the fat man wants to explain to others, and now some restaurants are indeed air conditioners are just decorations, after all, the store is trying to save electricity.

So what went wrong with this sentence, Rao is Shen Tingyu, who was named the talented daughter of the Shen family, didn't come up with a reason for a while, so he had to look at Luo Chuan's eyes for help.

"Let me give you a hint, what are the details of Su Mingming's case that were preconceived by us?"

"Be bright...... The man who died on the top floor of the downtown hospital......"

"Well, you're thinking about it, it's okay with your IQ. ”

The two of them walked forward aimlessly, although the purpose of this trip was to fill Shen Tingyu's stomach, but Shen Tingyu and Luo Chuan are the same personality at this point, and it is impossible to have an appetite if they don't figure out the ins and outs of the matter.

"I see!"

Five minutes later, Shen Tingyu suddenly ran to Luo Chuan excitedly and stopped.

"Tell me what you think. Luo Chuan smiled, he knew that Shen Tingyu had already guessed the correct answer.

"On the platform on the top floor of the scene of Xu Mingming's death, there are a lot of ice cubes placed there, and it is said that most of them have melted when we arrived, but according to the traces of water damage, it is still estimated that these ice cubes occupy a small area, so it is speculated that the time of Xu Mingming's death has been advanced to about half past six to seven o'clock! What if these ice cubes were not used by the murderer to delay the death time of the corpse!!

The talented daughter of the Shen family really lives up to her reputation. Luo Chuan couldn't help but exclaim.

"Did I guess right?" Shen Tingyu couldn't hide a little smile in his eyes.

"Well, it's not bad at all!" Luo Chuan smiled and nodded.

In that case, the alibi that Yin Ze had managed to establish was unstable again. ”

"It's hard to say now, it's just that we have a possibility, it doesn't mean that this must be the truth of the incident, in case the murderer really wanted to delay the time of death. ”

"No, it won't. Shen Tingyu shook his head decisively.

"Hmm, how do you say it?" Luo Chuan looked at Shen Tingyu with some curiosity.

"If the murderer really wants to change the time of death of the corpse through these ice cubes, then he will not use such an obvious means to let others see at a glance that the existence of these ice cubes is very strange, and the murderer is not stupid, as long as the police associate these ice cubes with the delay in death time, it is basically easy to deduce the real time of death of the deceased. ”

"Yes, and don't forget, who has benefited the most from delaying death through ice cubes? It's Yin Ze! He's a black person, shouldn't he have such a low IQ that he can use these ice cubes as his alibi?" Luo Chuan then said.

"If we overturn our previous judgment now, and the real time of death is still around eight o'clock in the morning, then Yin Ze's suspicion has skyrocketed again, but the other suspects have alibi, if you are Yin Ze, how do you break this deadlock?"

"Fake the time of death to clear your suspicion!" Shen Tingyu blurted out.

"Yes, falsify the real time of death, then follow our line of thought first, if we know that the real time of death is eight o'clock in the morning, assuming that Yin Ze is the murderer, and the other suspects happen to have an alibi, if he wants to clear his name, he must forge an alibi, but obviously he doesn't have any way to fake the certificate around eight o'clock. ”

"So he can only create an alibi for himself by delaying the death of the deceased, but you can also see the crime scene, it is very empty, there is no good place to set up this kind of mechanism, and the roof platform is not the first crime scene. ”

"Then why didn't he bring it over after the first crime scene was set up?" asked Shen Tingyu puzzled.

"Because he is worried that if the police do not find out about his method of delaying the death of the deceased, wouldn't he be the most suspicious?"

"Impossible, how could the police not find out, the current instruments and facilities are so advanced, and the police also have a lot of masters, just this little trick will not be impossible to find, right?" Shen Tingyu shook his head.

"Yes, if the murderer had set up a mechanism to ease the time of death of the corpse at the first crime scene, the police would have been able to find out the clues, but the question is whether the murderer would have thought of this, and the murderer has no reason to trust the police, right? So if I am the murderer in this case, instead of taking this risk, it is better to make it more obvious, so that people can find out at a glance that there is a clue in it. ”

"Ah, I understand, that's why the murderer put such a large pile of ice on the top floor platform, the purpose is not really to delay the death time of the corpse, but just to let the police think of this level, and guess a death time according to the volume of the ice cube to clear their suspicion!"

If this assumption is true, the murderer could never have done it alone. Luo Chuan said in a deep voice.

"Well, you can't do it alone, you have to move corpses, you have to put ice cubes, and you have to do it all in such a short time during a power outage. ”

"At present, let's speculate that the murderer of Chang Zhenghao's case and the murderer of Xu Mingming's case were committed by the same person, right? ”

"Well, yes. ”

"So is it possible that there are also accomplices in Chang Zhenghao's case?"

"Possibly!"

"There are still many unsolved clues in the Xinkun case, and I even suspect that the Xinkun case and the previous two cases were not committed by the same murderer. ”

"Do you have any suspicions right now?"

"Well, there is. ”

Shen Tingyu just asked casually, but she didn't expect Luo Chuan to really nod, which made her a little surprised, and hurriedly continued to ask.

"I suspect something is wrong within the police. ”

"What ?!!!"

“......”
