The people outside the door seemed to be sure that there was someone inside, and they were very patient and did not knock on the door a second time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 When info opened the door, they stood firmly in the doorway. Not the guest service staff of the hotel. The person in front of him was wearing an ordinary dark green cloth jacket and jeans, and he was sturdy, about forty. The other person was in a straight suit, with a longer body and a young face, looking like he was in his early twenties, and based on his baby face, he could also be older.

Before he could ask, the two of them had already shown their documents in unison and said, "Mr. Qin, please cooperate with us to accept the investigation." ”

He was stunned for a moment, keenly aware that the two of them had not only looked at him carefully, but also looked past himself to examine the scene in the room. Interpol? Their identities are identified on their documents. Get surveyed? What happened in the case? Why did you find him?

"Mr. Qin, please cooperate with us to accept the investigation." I said it again when I switched from German to English.

"Oh, good." He reacted suddenly, and blurted out in English a little dumbfounded. There's no reason to say no, isn't it?

The two looked at him, but there was no follow-up.

"Please come in." He leaned sideways and moved out of the way.

The two seemed to hesitate, but came in anyway.

He was going to take them to the sofa to take a seat, probably to ask him some questions, and it was more convenient to sit and talk. But when the two entered the door, they looked more closely into the room, and also looked at the bedroom through the partition of the suite.

"I'm sorry, I just came back and was about to take a shower." The leather schoolbag and a hardcover hard book were casually thrown onto the bed by him, and the sun-shading coat was also scattered on the floor, not very messy, but he explained with some embarrassment. Somehow, he wanted to close the partition door, but he thought it would be better not to do so, so he had already put on the hand that pulled the door and took it back again.

The two nodded, and the doubts in their eyes were lifted. His explanation explained why it had taken him some time to answer the door. But the two of them glanced again at his shirt, which was buttoned up in the bare buttons, and the younger one had a more ambiguous color in his eyes, as if he had glanced twice more at his neckline, trying to see something through the thin shirt.

"You may be seated." He couldn't understand what the ambiguity meant, and he didn't want to dig deeper, so he signaled to the two people who should have finished looking at the scene in his room.

The two of them sat directly this time. They all sat down on the long hair, and at the gesture of the older one's eyes, he sat down on a separate couch to the left of the man.

"You said you just got back to the hotel, so were you at school before today?" The older officer asked straight to the point.

The tone was like asking for a suspect's alibi. He was even more puzzled, but immediately replied, "Yes, I left the hotel at eight o'clock this morning and stayed at school until I returned to the hotel about five minutes ago. ”

Directly across from the couch hangs a wall clock that says it's 3:25.

There is no doubt that they already know him well, his name, his age, and his background in a series of studies at the University of Ruplecht-Karl, which is a six-month exchange course in the Faculty of Medicine (taught in English) and a language course (in German).

His last class of the day was supposed to end at 2:50. The distance between the school and the hotel is about 20 minutes. This indicates that he returned to the hotel directly after leaving school.

"Two and a half hours after lunch, you also ate at school and didn't go back to the hotel?" The older officer continued.

There was a little abruptness in his heart. The last class this morning ended at 11:30 and there was only one class in the afternoon, starting at 2 and ending at 2:50. The lunch break is exactly two and a half hours. They know it all right.

Without waiting for him to answer, the officer continued sharply: "But your class this afternoon was temporarily canceled, wasn't it?" ”

Yes, that class was cancelled at short notice. They know it too!

"I had lunch in the school cafeteria with my credit card, and it was about 12:30 a.m., after which I went to the library to study on my own. The afternoon class was cancelled at 1 o'clock, and I stayed in the library to read books after that. I watched it very much until someone was talking nearby, and when it was three o'clock, I looked at my watch and decided to borrow the book and go back to the hotel to continue reading. He explained in detail his whereabouts after half past eleven.

Because of the use of credit card consumption, the criminal police can easily find out that he spent at the restaurant at around 12 o'clock. After that, he went to the school library and used the library computer to study on his own, and he needed to enter his student ID and password to log in, and they could also check his login records. At 1 o'clock, he received an email to cancel the afternoon class, and at about 1:30 he finished all his homework and finished his self-study, and then logged out of the computer. He then began to read books, but there is no direct evidence that he remained in the library. But in the end, when he left the library at three o'clock, he borrowed the unfinished book, which needs to be registered at the front desk, and there is a record to check. Besides, the book was in bed, and they had seen it.

Based on the fact that this seemed to be explaining his alibi, he didn't know if the three, oh no, were the four record points, the time point of swiping the card in the restaurant, the two time points of logging in and logging out of the library computer, and the time point of registering and borrowing books at the front desk, and the time in between the four time points was not enough for him to go back and forth between the school and the scene of the crime, whether it could be used as his alibi. If he had been treated as a suspect, the unknown case had happened this afternoon.

He suspected that the crime scene was in the hotel, and in a room near his room. He will be questioned, not against suspicion, just for routine investigation. Everyone in the vicinity of the crime scene was named as the object of suspicion. It happened too suddenly, and he wasn't really a prisoner, and he couldn't think of any other possibilities he would be suspected.

He is very smart, but after all, he is not deeply involved in the world, and he can't imagine that being questioned like this means that he has been listed as a key suspect.

A hotel, or a large number of visitors, in the local is the most well-known, located in the center of the high-end hotel. It's just that if a case occurs in a certain room, on the premise that it will not threaten other tenants, no matter how serious the case, such as homicide, the criminal police will only ask the hotel staff at the first time, and will not easily disturb other tenants. Indeed, the scene of the murder needs to be cordoned off, and the tenant next door will also be briefly recorded, and then relocated with the cooperation of the hotel, mainly to collect eyewitness evidence, but will never be questioned so harshly as a suspect under the premise of no basis.

The floor on which his room was located was unremarkable when he returned. There was no cordon in the hallway, no one was noisy. Until he was suddenly visited by these two criminal policemen, he didn't know that there was a murder in the hotel. This proves that the murder scene is not on this level.

It occurred to him that he was not, was he really just being routinely questioned?

"Will your course end in two weeks, after which do you plan to return to the U.S. immediately, or will you stay here until the end of the summer?" The older detective had already changed the subject and continued to ask.

He was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied, "I plan to return to the United States after the summer vacation." ”

Hearing this answer, the two detectives quickly glanced at each other.

In fact, what they know is that he has booked a one-way ticket back to the United States at the end of the summer vacation. First class on Lufthansa. In addition, he spent half a year studying here in a hotel suite. This 18-year-old Chinese national, a high-IQ elite student who studied at Harvard Medical School in the United States and participated in the third-year half-year exchange course between the United States and Germany, is a child of a wealthy family.

It is reported that he intends to apply for a double postgraduate degree in heart and brain surgery at Ruprecht-Carr University. This exchange course can also be regarded as his advance inspection.

"Have you decided to apply to graduate school at Ruprecht-Carr University?" The detective asked again.

He was a little sensitive, and these two questions were already related to his privacy, but he still replied, "Yes, I like this school very much." It's outstanding, it's a very fascinating city, and it's exactly what I want to do in graduate school. ”

Hearing that their city and university were highly praised, a smile appeared on the faces of the two detectives. But he always felt that there was something deep behind that smile.

This was the end of the questioning, and the two detectives left in a gesture.

He stopped them and asked, "Can you let me ask some questions too?" ”

Without waiting for the two to answer, he had already asked, "What happened to the case?" Is it in this hotel? Which layer? He paused, "Am I being suspected?" The sensitive question swallowed.

"I'm sorry, we don't ......" The young detective immediately opened his mouth to refuse to answer, but was stopped by the older detective.

The elderly detective replied: "At 1:00 p.m. today, two American travelers, a man and a woman, were found dead in the room in room 605. There were no obvious injuries, but the possibility of homicide cannot be ruled out. ”

Not only did he answer his questions, but the older detective revealed more information. His three questions were wonderful, and even if they didn't answer, he would have just gone to the front desk of the hotel and asked.

The elderly detective suddenly added, "The name of the female deceased is Sarah Clinton Wright, and the name of the male deceased is Shaun Lou Bruce." Do you know the two? ”

When he heard the word American, he already had an ominous premonition in his heart, and when he heard the names of the two, he suddenly froze and blurted out: "Sarah?!" She...... She's my girlfriend. ”

At this time, the young detective's face showed an ambiguous and inexplicable expression, which also seemed to imply some kind of mockery. But he didn't have the heart to dig deeper, and asked in a bit of a panic, "When did Sarah come?" She...... She's dead? How can it be. ”

"Sean Lou Bruce, do you know each other?" The older detective asked.

He shook his head, answered honestly and with some confusion, and asked, "I don't know." He, came with Sarah? ”

The two detectives looked at each other, then carefully looked at his expression. The older officer frowned slightly and asked, "Sarah is your girlfriend?" Why do you not look surprised when you hear about her death? ”

He was stunned for a moment, and explained a little crampedly, as if he was also explaining to himself, "Sarah, she is my first girlfriend." I...... I ......"

"It was she who took the initiative to pursue you, and you agreed, but you didn't love her." The young detective hit the nail on the head.

The young detective asked another question, "Have you ever had intimate contact with her?" ”

He was stunned for a moment and asked stupidly, "What?" ”

"I mean, you ......" the older detective glanced at the younger one, who seemed to change his words, but still asked, "Have you spent the night alone together?" ”

It's a very subtle question, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

His naturally fair-skinned, not easily tanned face immediately turned red, and he replied even more crampedly: "No...... No. ”

Why ask him this question?

When he was a sophomore in junior high school, he skipped a grade to go to high school in the United States, because he had a serious illness when he was 8 years old, which was delayed for two years, and he was 14 years old at the time. But he only attended one year of high school before he was admitted to the pre-Harvard medical school program. One year later, he successfully graduated from the preparatory department and successfully enrolled in a 4-5 year bachelor's degree in basic medicine. He was young, his family's education was relatively strict, and the openness of American adolescent children did not affect him, he was a very traditional and polite child. And he has a reputation as a nerd.

In his sophomore year of college, he befriended Sarah, who was a year older than him, and unlike the girls who had lost interest in him when they knew he was a nerd, Sarah pursued him passionately. All sorts of explicit hints, well known, but he remained unaware. In the end, Sarah simply confessed: "I (first-person Binge, queen tone), can I be your girlfriend?" ”

Without waiting for him to react, she said conclusively: "If you don't refuse, you agree." Then from today onwards I am your girlfriend and you are my boyfriend. That's all, isn't it? See you tomorrow. Suddenly approaching, it was the first time he had been kissed on the cheek by her, and he was not disgusted.

After being together, the only few intimate encounters were just Sarah's active hugs and cheek kisses. In addition, apart from being at school or going out in groups with mutual friends, he rarely even sees Sarah alone in private, let alone spends the night at each other's homes.

Sarah lives at home, and at school dance, he picks her up and meets her parents. In addition, he would not have rushed to visit without Sarah's invitation.

Because of his young age, as an international student who came across the ocean alone, the school has the obligation of guardianship, and he must live in the dormitory of the school. Double dorm with a roommate. Sarah came a few times on weekends, and although her roommate was absent a few times, Sarah never stayed overnight. Originally, Sarah also came to invite him to the bar with him, but he was reading a book and refused Sarah's invitation, so Sarah went to play with her friends by herself and did not stay in his dormitory for too long.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with that.

Older than him, 22-year-old Sara takes care of him and accommodates him like a big sister. He was so focused on his studies that he rarely accompanied her, and she didn't feel that he was at fault, and never complained. Although Sarah has a rich extracurricular life compared to him, she still has many friends who can go out with her instead of him. On the other hand, Sarah has many friends he doesn't know, both men and women, and he doesn't care about them, giving them trust and respect.

Although he had heard some gossip. (To be continued.) )
