The first batch of 20 people to be interrogated consisted mainly of shipwrights who had been transferred from shift to shift or on rotation.

As Gu Tianming expected, among these people, there was not even a person who was slightly suspicious, and he just glanced at it and confirmed that it was correct.

Gu Tianming arranged for Yue Dapeng to be briefly interrogated, and he wandered around the door, waiting for the next group of personnel to arrive.

After Yue Dapeng informed him that the first batch of personnel had been interrogated, Gu Tianming asked these people to replace the cruise ship's security personnel and were not allowed to return to work.

There are also a lot of security personnel, the total number of people has reached 26, these people are more complex, there are cooks, handymen, waiters, maintenance workers, etc., men, women and children, but these people are not the focus of Gu Tianming, he firmly believes that the murderer is hidden in the last group of crew.

The reason why the first batch of crew members are not allowed to return to their posts is to avoid private replacement, and no one can fully know each crew member, and they are not very familiar with each other in such a mobile position.

After the security personnel finished the investigation, they were all guys who were not very cooperative: there was a cleaner who looked like an old lady, and when she came over, she scolded and scolded, saying that it affected her rest, and she didn't pay attention to the police or anything at all, and Gu Tianming only briefly criticized the matter; there was a waiter who was relatively young, and when he came over, he reported the case, saying that his wallet was taken away, and asked the police to help investigate and investigate, Yue Dapeng couldn't cry or laugh, and filled out a form for him to perfunctory; there was also a master, who specialized in repairing the ship's electronic equipment, and began to babble as soon as he entered the door, and the interrogation became a good place for him to complain, and most of the time the master was popularizing professional knowledgeAs for those cooks, they even pulled their shoes and lay on the sofa like dead pigs, half-asleep and half-awake to ask and answer questions with the police, and finally were blown away by Yue Dapeng.

Gu Tianming's confession was an inquiry, not a real interrogation, so as to avoid causing conflicts and delaying time, Yue Dapeng was also scratching his head.

More than an hour later, Yue Dapeng reported that no suspicious characters were found, Gu Tianming smiled disapprovingly, put these support personnel back, and then personally selected 10 boatmen who were not suspected of anything, and personally went to the wheelhouse to replace the crew members on duty.

He also carried two armed SWAT officers with him to prevent the murderer from jumping off the wall.

The second deputy sister Wow was already on standby, and she also led the 6 officers on duty to wait in the cab, everything looked very smooth, Gu Tianming asked the second mate to lead the 6 people back to the temporary interrogation room, and only arranged one guard, so he asked the first mate Chao Ge to be the tour guide, and led the remaining 4 technicians straight to the cabin.

The cabin below the sixth floor is very complicated, but Chaoge is still familiar with the road, after replacing each post, the summoning personnel gathered in the main control cabin, and there were 8 people!

Gu Tian was smug and secretly proud, very good, this is the result he wants.

He wanted to see how the four extra people should be explained.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Gu Tianming did not immediately start the interrogation, but picked up the police walkie-talkie unhurriedly and only issued a simple command: search!

Eight people stood inexplicably not far away and looked at Gu Tianming with vigilant eyes, but Gu Tianming didn't say a word, he was waiting for the results of the task force's search, and he wanted to make everyone have nothing to hide.

About half an hour later, the task force escorted a long group of people into the centralized control cabin one after another, and when they looked around, there were more than a dozen people, Gu Tianming couldn't help frowning, this is too much.

The task force leader walked over and whispered a few words in Gu Tianming's ear.

It turned out that these people actually claimed to have taken a ship to the island by trust, and they were also men, women, and children, and the task force checked their identities to find out that these people did not even have ID cards, and they looked sincerely frightened when they came in.

Gu Tianming asked these people to stand in three columns, a column of 8 people, exactly 24 people.

After a preliminary inspection, the staff all held formal post certificates, and did not carry any prohibited items, but they also did not carry ID cards, and their tones were relatively consistent.

Gu Tianming didn't intend to let these people out of sight easily, although he didn't have much research on the ship, but the labyrinthine layout of the cabin had already aroused his vigilance.

He recalled the scene of the attack, and the only thing he could be sure of was that the killer was not tall, thin and small, and his movements were extremely flexible, and he fled immediately after missing a blow, without giving him more time to react.

Among these people, there are not too many who meet this appearance and characteristics, and it is likely that there is another person who killed the woman, that is to say, this is a gang crime, and letting anyone slip through the net will make this carefully deployed operation fail, how can he be willing.

"First mate, do you have a closed cabin here?" he asked Chao Ge first.

Chao Ge nodded: "There are many, you have to ask the second engineer wheel specifically." ”

Someone in the crowd raised their hands, and a middle-aged man who looked very stable gestured: "I am the second engineer." He didn't come out for fear of causing a misunderstanding.

"He is our second engineer, named Wang Feng. Chaoge confirmed.

Gu Tianming nodded: "You come to the front to talk." ”

Wang Feng, the second engineer, walked out cautiously, stood still and said: "The most airtight cabin on the seventh floor is a warehouse, and there are more than a dozen large warehouses here, all of which store mechanical parts, and only one exit is set up. He paused, "As long as the hatch is locked, no one can escape, but ...... The air is so bad, the smell of the lubricating oil inside is also very strong, and the temperature is high, I am afraid that the average person will not stay long. ”

"Well, that's good, the worse the environment, the better. A sneer rose at the corner of Gu Tianming's mouth.

He turned to the more than twenty people present and said sharply, "Everyone should have heard that there was a murder on the ship. And the murderer is most likely hiding among you, maybe right next to you right now. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, including the two pairs of Chao Ge, who looked at Gu Tianming incredulously, and caught a glimpse of Gu Tianming's face wrapped in gauze, and his eyes were cold as a fierce god, Chao Ge hurriedly looked away.

Gu Tianming's voice sounded again: "I hope you can identify this person next to you, whether it is the staff on the ship, everyone is welcome to provide clues, and I also hope that the murderer can take the initiative to stand up, because you have no way to hide, don't be trapped in the beast." ”

Several special police officers subconsciously took a few steps back, occupied a favorable terrain, and pointed their guns at these people, and several special police officers also carried out the necessary vigilance on the perimeter according to the division of labor.

The atmosphere was almost frozen, no one dared to move, and in case of misunderstanding, a film of guns would be beckoned.

Gu Tianming said: "I will give Your Excellency one last chance, confess leniently, resist strictly, if there is an attack, we have the right to shoot on the spot, please think twice." "His voice wasn't loud, but it was intimidating.

There was still no response, let alone an acknowledgement.

"It seems that Your Excellency is really stubborn and still holding on to luck, I might as well reveal some information. Gu Tianming played psychological tactics, "Someone attacked me tonight, and his physical characteristics have been remembered by me, and I also put a mark on him." Do you need me to take you out?"

These words are both true and false, and the faces of the people under the guns have changed several times in a row.

“......”

"Officer, I seem to be ......" Someone in the crowd suddenly raised his hand, and almost all the muzzles of the gun automatically turned to him, which was a stress reaction.

However, at this very moment-

The cabin suddenly shook violently, and the amplitude was not small, and Gu Tianming was caught off guard for a while, and he stumbled into the control console beside him.
