Chapter 24: Friends Ask for Help

Ask for recommendations~

――――――――――

The big thing Liu Xin said was actually not his own, but his current girlfriend, that is, the chinajoy girl Song Chi met in the bar last time. His girlfriend has now been arrested by the police on suspicion of intentional homicide.

Song Chi asked him to calm down his mood first, not to panic, and to say what he knew slowly.

It turned out that Liu Xin's girlfriend Lin Xiao was a part-time graphic model, although she worked for a modeling agency, she was paid a piece-rate wage. A few days ago, a photographer she had worked with contacted her and said that she was paid 5,000 yuan to take a set of flat photos for the magazine. Because of the previous cooperation, the remuneration this time was okay, and Lin Xiao agreed to the photographer.

Here's what happened on the day of the incident. After Lin Xiao finished lunch, the photographer drove to pick her up, and the two stopped to buy some drinks on the way before coming to the photographer's studio. After putting on makeup and changing clothes, the two first went to the tennis court in the community and took a set of outdoor photos. About an hour later, the two returned to the studio and continued to take the next set of photos in the room. It wasn't until more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon that Lin Xiao threw the door and left......

But two days later, the police found the photographer strangled to death in his studio.

"Are you saying that when Lin Xiao left that day, he threw the door away? What happened to the two of them? Song Chi asked suspiciously.

Liu Xin responded: "That hateful photographer is a pervert, who wants to subtly rule Lin Xiao. In fact, Lin Xiao had long known that this photographer liked to use her hands and feet, but in front of the reward, she decided to give it a try. Unexpectedly, when I came back from the tennis court and took indoor photos, the photographer began to be lustful again. Lin Xiao resisted violently with him, and even his clothes were torn. Later, the photographer gradually lost his strength, so Lin Xiao took the opportunity to put on a piece of clothing and escaped, not letting the beast succeed. ”

From Liu Xin's indignant recounting, Song Chi felt that there must be something strange in this. "And how did the photographer die?"

According to the police, the photographer was strangled to death. However, before he died, it was discovered that the cola drink he drank contained sleeping pills. And Lin Xiao has no fixed time to work because of her profession as a model, and she does have the habit of taking sleeping pills. The police found the photographer's body two days later, lying on the sofa, according to the forensic doctor's time of death, the photographer's time of death should have been between the afternoon and evening two days ago, that is, during Lin Xiao's photo shoot...... "Liu Xin almost told everything he knew.

If, as Liu Xin said, the photographer took advantage of the photo shoot to misbehave towards Lin Xiao, and then the two fought, and Lin Xiao strangled the photographer to death in a panic, this is at most manslaughter. However, the police found the ingredients of sleeping pills in the photographer's drink, which may involve intentional homicide.

"Do you think the murderer is Lin Xiao?" Song Chi asked.

Liu Xin hurriedly responded: "Don't look at Lin Xiao's height of 1.72 meters, her body frame is quite big, but she doesn't have much strength." Accompany her shopping, she even took her own handbag from me. And she is very timid, she will turn her face when she sees a chicken killed on TV. And her mind is actually very simple, and she is certainly not a murderer, let alone intentional homicide. ”

"Since you don't believe that she will be a murderer, I believe that the police will find out the facts, and Zuihou will return her innocence." Song Chi had no choice but to comfort him.

Liu Xin continued: "I also believe that the police will clarify the facts, but I have been to see her twice in the detention center, and every time I cry like a tearful person, as if I have aged 10 years all of a sudden, and I am really worried about her...... I don't want her to drag on like this, and find a way to get her out sooner. By the way, do you have any relationship in that newspaper? ”

"What are you talking nonsense!" Song Chi stopped him and said, "As long as she actively cooperates with the police investigation, she will definitely be able to come out as soon as possible." The police station, you think it's a vegetable market, and you can get it out for a little money, but you're still dead. ”

Hearing Liu Xin's sigh on the phone, Song Chi's mood was also uncomfortable. He thought of Zhang Yulin, he was also misunderstood and wronged by her, that feeling is really called heaven and earth. But Liu Xin is so miserable, as his most haode friend, he can't help much, it's so helpless.

Wait...... Wait a minute, Song Chi suddenly thought of his mobile phone, if he could have the mobile phone number of the deceased photographer, maybe he would be able to know what he said before he died.

Perhaps, this sentence can provide favorable clues for solving the case?

As soon as he thought of this, Song Chi immediately became interested, and this may be the only thing he can help. "Listen to me Liu Xin, the matter has come to this, you don't have to worry now. I would like to ask you to do something for me...... Get the photographer's mobile phone number. ”

"What did you say?" Liu Xin was taken aback when he heard this. "What do you want his mobile phone number for? He's a dead man! ”

Song Chi replied quietly: "Oh, with his mobile phone number, I want to ask someone to check some of his previous information, hoping to find something." He didn't tell Liu Xin the secret in his mobile phone, first, he felt that this matter was too complicated, and he would not be clear for a while; The second is that even if he says it, others may not believe him.

"Oh!" Liu Xin replied suspiciously. "I'm going to ask some of her friends right away, and they should have photographer numbers." With that, he hung up the phone.

Less than five minutes later, Liu Xin immediately called again. "Song Chi, I asked for the photographer's number through her friend, can you remember it now?"

"Well, convenient, I'm at my desk, you name it." Song Chi took out a ballpoint pen and tore off another piece of sticky note paper.

Noting down the mobile phone number reported by Liu Xin, Song Chi immediately dialed the number, he desperately wanted to know what the lustful photographer said before he died.

"Dut...... Honk...... ...... "Song Chi's heart was nervously about to rise to his throat. “…… How did you...... Will hide here......"

The voice on the phone seemed a little old and intermittent, as if it was said when he was about to lose his breath.

"How do you ...... will hide here" This sentence kept hovering and churning in Song Chi's mind, what did it mean?

Song Chi thought about it, this sentence should rule out that Lin Xiao was a murderer. Judging from the words of zuihou that the photographer said before he died, first, he didn't expect this murderer to appear in the studio; The second is that the murderer should be known to the photographer.

When Lin Xiao threw the door away, the photographer had not been strangled to death, so his death was in the period after Lin Xiao left.

The photographer of the deceased used the word "hide", which is quite puzzling. Could it be that this third person, other than Lin Xiao and the photographer, has been in the studio from beginning to end? Could it be that the sleeping pills were also put by that person? And this person wants to strangle the photographer to death, and then blame Lin Xiao? Can't the police find this third person?

After a series of assumptions, Song Chi took a sip of water and calmed down. Perhaps the police overlooked some crucial details in the course of their investigation. If the real murderer is caught one day later, for Lin Xiao, it will be one more day of pain.

But what should I do to help Lin Xiao, or to be exact, help my friend Liu Xin?
