Chapter Forty-Eight: You Are the One Who Did These Things
Lin family cellar.
A purple square wooden box that is only five inches long and wide.
Although it was underground, with modern lighting, everything was as clear as day, and the contents of the box could be seen clearly - two bottles of solution, one with nothing in it, and the other with a few small pieces of white waxy solid; There is also a dropper, a pair of tweezers, and a pair of yellow-white thin gloves.
It's like preparing for a chemistry experiment.
The box was now placed in the open space between the wine shelves in the basement, and everyone was staring at the box with a blank expression, only Lu Hong was smiling.
Lin Ge came to his senses from his stupor, turned to Lu Hong and asked, "Mr. Lu, is this ...... What's going on? ”
He really couldn't figure out why Lu Hong insisted on going to the cellar to take a look, and after leading him to the cellar, Lu Hong was like entering his own back garden, skillfully turning back and forth a few times, and dragged out such a small wooden box from under a wine rack at the foot of the west wall. And the things inside are really too weird, in Lin Ge's cognition, in addition to wine, the cellar is some food that can be preserved for a long time, when did these bottles and cans appear?
Lu Hong smiled when he heard this: "Mr. Lin, this is why you saw the spontaneous combustion of the note before." ”
"That's all?" Lin Ge was not convinced, and reached out to get one of the bottles.
"Don't move!" Lu Hong stopped loudly, and continued to explain after Lin Ge turned back suspiciously, "If it is not as I expected, one of these two bottles is glycerin, and the white things of glycerin are white phosphorus; The other bottle is carbon disulfide. Carbon disulfide is volatile, so it is better not to move. ”
As soon as so many terms came out, Lin Ge was even more confused and didn't know why.
"I see!" Chen Yuyan suddenly clapped her palms and shouted, and found that after everyone turned their eyes to her, she was not stage frightened, and after laughing generously, she pointed to the things in the box, "I've seen all these things, didn't I use these things to do an experiment in the chemistry laboratory in high school?" It's an experiment of spontaneous combustion of white phosphorus! ”
"Spontaneous combustion?" Lin Ge frowned and tried to think about it, but he really didn't understand these chemical reactions, of course he couldn't figure it out.
Han Bing thought for a while, understood, and nodded suddenly. Lin Zizhi also had her relieved expression.
Chen Yuyan saw that Lin Ge was still confused, and wanted to explain to him, just when she wanted to speak, she turned back to look at Lu Hong, and when she saw him smiling and nodding, she continued: "Mr. Lin, you see, according to Lu Hong, this bottle is glycerin, and the inside is white phosphorus, why?" Because white phosphorus is insoluble in glycerin, and white phosphorus is easy to spontaneously combust, it should be stored in glycerin. The other bottle is carbon disulfide, I remember that white phosphorus is easily soluble in carbon disulfide, put it down a little, and it will dissolve with carbon disulfide at once; Carbon disulfide is easy to volatilize in the air, as long as the carbon disulfide dissolved with white phosphorus is coated on the paper, and after the carbon disulfide volatilizes, there are small particles of white phosphorus left, and the white phosphorus comes into contact with the air, and it will not take long for the paper to spontaneously combust, and the paper will naturally catch fire by itself. Lu Hong, am I right? ”
Lu Hong said with a smile: "Yuyan, it seems that what you have learned has not been given back to the teacher, you can go and teach those children in middle school to do chemistry experiments." ”
Chen Yuyan smiled, charming and seductive, she wanted to understand that the appearance of the note was artificial, and she was not as scared as she was just now, and returned to her dignified and generous posture.
Lu Hong added: "This pair of gloves should be worn by the person when he did things in order not to leave a handle, the tweezers are used to take white phosphorus from the bottle, and the dropper is to absorb carbon disulfide and drip it on the paper." Why in the cellar? Because this place is closest to the ancestral hall, it is possible to put the note into the ancestral hall in a short period of time before the carbon disulfide volatilizes and the white phosphorus spontaneously combusts! The experiment was hand-to-hand and untimed, so when the person couldn't go into the cellar to do these things, the note wouldn't spontaneously combust, and sometimes it would. ”
Lin Ge's face darkened when he heard this, if Lu Hong's guess was correct, these strange things were for sure, the key was that this person was probably someone in his villa!
He was angry, he asked himself how gentle everyone in the villa was, and the treatment was good, but he didn't expect to raise a white-eyed wolf in the end!
"If I find him, I want him to look good!" Lin Ge almost gritted his teeth and burst out such a sentence, he almost went crazy when he thought of how many cells he had died in the past month or so.
Lin Zizhi on the side suddenly frowned and said, "Classmate Lu, even if you guessed correctly about the contents of this box, then how did the note enter the ancestral hall?" As we have just seen, the note fell from above the ancestral hall, and the cellar did not have the slightest gap with the ancestral hall except for two road crossings. I don't think anyone has the courage to go up to that cellar in the small warehouse to commit a crime, right? ”
Lu Hong sighed and said, "I don't think anyone has the courage to do this, or that no one will be brain-dead to this point." ”
"And what do you mean?" Lin Zizhi frowned, a little dissatisfied that Lu Hong was selling Guanzi.
Han Bing was also anxious to know the answer, and urged: "Lu Hong, what else can you say quickly." ”
Lu Hong noticed Lin Ge's nervousness, couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "If you want to find out who did this, you have to find at least two things." ”
"What's that?" Lin Ge asked urgently.
Lu Hong stretched out a finger and said, "Tools!" A tool that can send a note from the top of the ancestral hall inside. To be honest, Mr. Lu, if your ancestral hall is made of a flat-roofed square instead of a tiled house, I don't think the perpetrators will have any chance to engage in these tricks. ”
Lin Ge said with a wry smile: "It's always too awkward for the ancestral hall to be made of reinforced concrete, alas! ”
Lu Hong covered the box, held it in his arms, glanced around at everyone, and said, "Let's go, find other evidence." ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then followed Lu Hong out of the cellar.
The place where Lu Hong was going was not very far, a little north from the cellar entrance, and turned back to the back of the ancestral hall. This is a small garden, there are a lot of flowers and trees, there are a lot of dead branches and leaves on the ground, no one cleans them, and it retains a lot of farmhouse charm.
Because of Lu Hong's miraculous performance just now, everyone was a little convinced, and they didn't ask, and followed him directly.
Lu Hong held the box, while walking, he looked down and looked for it, and after looking for a while, his face suddenly appeared happy, and he ran over, picking up a small wooden stick from the ground that looked like a branch in the eyes of everyone.
"Haha, that's it!" Lu Hong burst out laughing.
A few people were even more curious to surround it, and at a glance they realized that it was not a branch, but something made of metal, which looked round and slippery, but in fact, there were many thin claws like centipedes underneath, except for the two long claws in front, the others were made of cotton.
Lu Hong was also very surprised by this thing, he didn't expect that it was such a small thing that had been playing with the Lin family for more than a month, and then looking at the front of it, there was a small mouth with teeth in the mouth, and it should be a small spring thing when it went in.
"The front two claws are for climbing, and these little cotton feet are supposed to absorb shock when moving so as not to make a loud noise on the tiles. It seems simple, but the technical content is very profound! Lu Hong muttered heartfelt admiration.
"What is this?" Lin Ge looked at it in his hand for a while and didn't understand, not to mention him, even Han Bing and the others didn't know what Lu Hong was looking for such a thing.
Lu Hong said: "This is the tool for launching notes. ”
"What?" Lin Ge was so frightened that he almost threw the tool out, but when he came back to his senses, he understood in his heart that he had found so many things, so this matter was man-made and ironclad, and he was even more angry, "Who wants to do this to me?" ”
"Who is it?" Lu Hong's face suddenly became very serious, he turned his head, pointed at Lin Zizhi with his right hand, and laughed, "Far away in the sky, close in front of you, isn't it him!" I'm sure, Lin Gongzi, you're the one doing these things! ”
