Chapter Eighty-Five: Grand Officer Bailey
"Cook, who are they?" a man in a police uniform pointed at the three Eric with hostility.
"Officers Bey, Bailey. Cook stuttered a little, "He—they're visiting here." ”
"Tourists?" beckoned to the three of them with the usual strange looks. Coupled with his red nose, rugged features, and messy hair oozing out along the brim of his police hat, Eric couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Bailey leaned in over Eric, choking on the smell of alcohol.
"Uh-no. Eric began to play on what he did best, "You're the most special police officer I've ever met. ”
"That's nature. I'm the only police officer in town, Kyle Bailey, and everyone in town calls me Officer Bailey. When it comes to his identity, Pele is very proud.
Chiko and Caitlyn glanced at each other, and finally suppressed the smile that was about to erupt.
"What's going on here?" Bailey suddenly became very serious, "under my eyelids, there can be such a brutal murder. ”
"Cook, you live next door to Thomas, did you hear anything?" Bailey forced a look at the timid Cook.
"No—no, we heard Daisy screaming and came over. Cook said, hunching his neck.
"The downstairs door—" Bailey's eyes were suspicious of Cook.
"No, I didn't do it!" Cook quickly explained.
"Hmm. Think about you, you don't have that much energy. Before Cook could finish speaking, Bailey cut off his words, "I think this must be a gang crime, there are at least three murderers, one person is the wind, two people are banging on the door, and-"
"Hmm—Officer Bailey. Eric raised his right hand, interrupting Bailey's self-talking reasoning.
"What's the matter, do you have any questions?" Bailey gave Eric a disgruntled look.
"It's not that complicated, I kicked the door open. Chiko confessed his "crime".
"What!" Bailey glared at Chiko's slender figure, "it can't be. ”
"Indeed, this lady is indeed. Cook testified.
Bailey seems to feel that his authority has been desecrated and violated. He glared at Cook in annoyance, then at the three of Eric, and suddenly his eyes released an excited gaze: "I just said that there are at least three people in the criminal gang, and you - just three of you!"
"That's how you usually handle cases?" Catelyn laughed.
"Our town is the happiest town on earth, and there are no homicides on weekdays!" Bailey said menacingly, "but after the three of you came here, there was such a murderous murder, which also proves that you are inseparable from the death of the Thomas family!"
Eric touched his nose, in fact, the truth is so wonderful. Although Bailey's previous reasoning was outrageously wrong, if the Thomas family's death was done by fools, then they really can't get out of the relationship. From this point of view, this idiot officer stood on the threshold of truth from the very beginning.
"Do you have anything to say?" Bailey stared at Eric with a smirk.
But when Daisy screamed, he and they came to the living room together. Cook defended his visitors.
"I was just speculating. Bailey glanced at Cook, but still didn't forget to pick a thorn, "So what now? What are you three tourists still standing here!"
"Actually, I'm a detective. Eric handed over his business card over his old man.
"Detective?" Bailey glanced at his business card but didn't take it, "There's no need for a detective here. ”
"In other words, we were the first discoverers at the scene of the crime, and I think Officer Bailey needs our testimony, and maybe Officer Bailey can give us a good show of reasoning. Caitlin said as she picked up Bailey's character.
"That's nature. Bailey looked at Caitlin appreciatively, and by the way, he looked at her hot body that couldn't even be covered by a winter coat, "So let's start with the modus operandi." ”
"The murderers were all killed by this fruit knife, and the throat was sealed with a knife. Chiko handed the blood-stained fruit knife to Bailey.
"The water on the ground—" Bailey crouched down and tested the temperature of the water with his hands, "is it from the big barrel?" Apparently, Bailey also found blood stains on the hole in the barrel.
"The killer must have slammed his head into the bucket during a scuffle with Mr. Thomas, knocked him unconscious, and then slashed his throat. As a result, their daughter Daisy happened to pass by and found the murderer, and it turned out that she could not escape the clutches of the murderer. Bailey began to reason again.
"Even if Daisy outside the door is removed, there is Thomas's wife Tracey in the room, if Mr. Thomas and the murderer are still in a scuffle, why doesn't Tracey cry out for help?" Eric easily refuted Bailey's reasoning.
"Or the murderer used some dirty trick to make them unconscious, like * or something. Bailey retorted.
"Since you can charm two people, why do you still pull Mr. Thomas so hard to break the bucket, just go straight down. Eric made a knife motion with his right hand.
"This-" Bailey rolled his eyes, as if trying to think of a new reason, "maybe—"
"Maybe there is another suspicion here, spilling water on the ground, whether it is moving the corpse or the murderer running away by himself, it is very easy to leave traces, but you look at the environment of the scene. Eric casually pointed to the window and the door to the room, but there was no sign of what he had said.
"The murderer can be wiped dry before leaving!" Bailey said, wrinkling his eyebrows.
"We arrived here after Daisy screamed, do you think the killer had a chance to escape through the main entrance?" asked Eric.
"Idiot detective, there's another window here!" Bailey gestured to the window, but he quickly realized that the only window in the room was locked.
"Murder in a closed room. Chiko shrugged her eyebrows.
"That's right, whether it's water on the ground indoors or snow outside, these environments are a disaster for any absconding murderer. But in this catastrophic environment, the murderer did not leave a trace, which is not something that anyone can do. Eric said in a tone that bordered on admiration.
"Are you praising the murderer?" Bailey, who had been overturned by Eric one after another, was already very annoyed, and his red nose was already as angry as a huge match head.
"Well—of course not. Eric shook his head with great interest, "I would like to say that only a case like this can highlight your talent. ”
"Really?" Bailey glanced at Eric suspiciously, but it had to be said that the curly-haired detective did have some three-legged cat skills.
