1329 Where's the Evidence?
"Wait a minute, I'm sorry to ......" Just before Zhao Yu could speak, Scott suddenly interjected and said, "There is one thing, I haven't figured it out yet......
"Chinese detective, since the murderer has knocked Miss Jasmine unconscious, why didn't he kill people in the secret room?
"It's all murder anyway, what's the difference between killing outside and killing in a secret room......? Killing people in a secret room is more hidden, isn't it?"
After Scott asked, someone at the scene nodded, apparently asking the same question.
However, after patiently waiting for Miao Kun to finish translating, Zhao Yu answered the question:
"Because...... The windows in the study are open!"
“……”
In a word, not only confused Scott, but also made the other detectives confused.
"I think the murderer must think the same way!" Zhao Yu paused slightly, and then explained, "If he kills Miss Jasmine in the secret room, it will be equivalent to the murder case in the back and the disappearance case in the front."
"If Miss Jasmine is missing, then her men will surely search for her with all their might. Since the camera captured Miss Jasmine finally entering the study, it was easy to find the secret room in the study.
In addition, the murderer also has to worry, there are other people who also know about the secret room, and they will soon find the secret room and find Miss Jasmine's body.
"So, instead of people searching for the missing Miss Jasmine, we should just let people see the murder case located outside.
"That's why the murderer opened the window of the study, making people mistakenly think that Miss Jasmine herself went out through the window, so as to divert everyone's attention from the secret room!"
"Why do you want to get out of the way?" Yusuf guessed, "isn't it...... The Chamber of Secrets is very important to the murderer?"
"Wow......" Cisse's eyes widened, "and what you say, is it really possible that the diamond is hidden in the secret room?"
"I think ......," Zhao Yu said, "this may be just one of them, the murderer doesn't want people to know about the secret room, and maybe there is another reason, that is, to confuse the line of sight and prevent us from characterizing the murder as an accident!"
When Miao Kun was translating, everyone was slowly digesting Zhao Yu's meaning.
"He went to great lengths to change his shoes and carry people out of the secret room, just to create an illusion. Zhao Yu continued, "Let's think that there is something wrong with Miss Jasmine herself, she died in the garden in the middle of the night because she wanted to meet someone, or some conspiracy......"
"Reasonable, reasonable!" Gu Zhaoichiro said admiringly, "When we first saw the scene of the crime, we really thought about the case!"
"Also, the reference point for making a judgment is actually the image before Miss Jasmine enters the study!" Juliet nodded, "And we, we really ignored this!"
"There are only Miss Jasmine's shoe prints in the secret passage...... It means that the murderer did not enter Grimm's study through the secret passage!" Scott asked again, "And how did the murderer get in?"
"There is surveillance at the door of the study, and the door lock of the secret passage can only be opened from the inside......," Zhao Yu replied without thinking, "So, there is only one place for the murderer to enter the study safely, and that is ......"
"Window!" replied several detectives, almost in unison.
"I've seen ......," said Gu Zhaoichiro, "the window of the study is one of those old-fashioned latches, which can be easily opened from the outside if you use the barb method or the magnet method!"
"Okay, have you said enough?" Li Bencheng said impatiently, "Well, I believe that your reasoning may be correct. But," he asked Zhao Yu, "are you still not sure, the murderer must be Xi Wei's daughter?"
"Hmph...... It's hard to say if it's Xi Wei's daughter!" Zhao Yu muttered quietly.
"Well...... Miao Kun looked at Simona carefully, and muttered in a low voice, "I've seen it before...... It seems like...... Almost, almost......"
"Chinese Detective ......," Sevanbak urged, "didn't you just say that there is evidence that can prove that Miss Model is the murderer?
"Hehe," Zhao Yu said slowly as if he was deliberately controlling the rhythm, "You must be curious to know...... Where was the murder weapon that killed Miss Jasmine hidden by the murderer?"
Suddenly, when they heard the murder weapon, everyone suddenly came to their senses, and they all focused their attention on Zhao Yu.
"Do you need to say that?" said Sevanbak, pouting, "is it...... Do you know where the murder weapon is hidden?"
"Of course I don't know!" Zhao Yu spread out his hands and looked helpless, "After the incident, we have been getting together, how can we have time to find any murder weapons?"
"You're talking interesting......" Yusuf frowned, "since you don't know where the murder weapon is, what use do you think it's for?"
"In the pen holder in Green's study, I didn't see the paper cutter. But ......," Zhao Yu deliberately pulled away from the topic and said, "I can't guarantee that the murder weapon must be a paper cutter." It is also possible that it was the tool knife that the murderer carried with him, or it could be ...... Is it some kind of knife that the murderer found in the secret room?"
"It's also possible that it was the cutlery stolen at lunch!hehe......" Cisse smirked, "after all, the murderer is a thief!"
"Everyone......" Zhao Yu finally raised his voice and said to everyone, "Now, let's use the hypothetical method to reason, if you are the murderer, then after you kill someone, what will you do with the murder weapon?"
"The murder weapon often contains important information," Gu Zhaoichiro said first, "so it must not be left at the scene of the crime, or near the scene of the crime."
"Now that we have confirmed that the murderer killed the murder to confuse the public, it is even more unlikely that he left the murder weapon in a place where we can easily find it!"
"But ......," Jaca said, "there are a lot of cameras installed on this island, and the killer's range is limited." There's no way he's going to put the murder weapon far away, right?"
"It's not a good idea to take it back to the castle and hide it," says Juliet, "and there are the most cameras in the castle, and if you're not careful, you'll be exposed." ”
"If we guess," said Gu Zhaoichiro, "the murderer left the room through the protruding wall outside the window, so when he returned, he must have returned to his own room!"
"Then it is even more impossible to bring the murder weapon back to the room!" said the Japanese writer, "Everyone knows that after the crime, someone will definitely search the room of every suspect, which is the most stupid behavior." ”
"Yes, there's a camera in the hallway outside the room!" Yusuf said, "As long as you get back to your room, you can't hide the murder weapon anywhere else!"
"So, the murderer must have been hiding the murder weapon on the way back to the room after killing someone!
"And the small garden is not even 100 meters away from our room, if you really hide the murder weapon in this kind of place, can you not find it?"
"We have done a carpet search of this area, where the cameras can't see it," replied Lieutenant Jonte, "but we found nothing!"
"Isn't it...... Did you dig a pit and hide it?" asked Cisse hurriedly.
"The murder weapon is metal," Jont replied, "we used a metal detector and found nothing!"
"That's right if you didn't find it!" Zhao Yu didn't wait for Miao Kun to translate for him, so he took the first step and said, "There, you can't find it!"
"You don't want to say ......" Li Bencheng sneered, "The murder weapon is not metal, is it?"
"No!" Zhao Yu said confidently, "I just want to say: let me tell you where the murderer hid the murder weapon!!"
