266. Do not do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself
266、
From a certain point of view, Chu Mufeng really admired the boldness of this Chu Wuyuan.
There are actually many loopholes in this disguised hanging plan, but there is no way, who is so bold and careful to dare to implement it in this kind of gap where no one comes to the church.
As long as someone comes in, or even as long as someone approaches, he's afraid he'll be weak-hearted, right?
Can anyone come? No!
Therefore, Chu Wuyuan's plan was a complete success.
"Officer Chu, I still have a question!"
At this moment, Gu Zijun suddenly asked with a suspicious face: "Even if he wants to hang himself, there are too many places to choose, why choose the church, so high?" Isn't it asking for trouble? ”
"You should be able to figure it out, because you have told the reason yourself, and that is Gao!"
Chu Mufeng raised his hand and pointed to the beam and said, "Chu Wuyuan did this because he didn't want anyone to come into contact with him. Because of this height, unless you use a ladder, you can't go up at all, and the ladder can't be found now, obviously hidden by Chu Wuyuan! ”
"Actually, I can think that Chu Wuyuan is the murderer, and it has something to do with the ladder. Huang Junsheng, have you seen that ladder? Chu Mufeng turned his head and said.
"Well, yes!" Huang Junsheng nodded and admitted.
"You were out there, climbing a ladder to create a ghost fire to scare people. Actually, you did it, but the ghost fire you created didn't appear outside the auspicious room, but outside Chu Wuyuan's room, right? ”
Chu Mufeng ignored Huang Junsheng, who was a little stammering, and continued to say to himself: "You can't help it, who let there be a pond under Jixiang's room, and there is no place for the ladder at all, so you retreat and put the ladder outside Chu Wuyuan's Yinhai room." ”
"Ginkai and Jixiang are next to each other, so I can occasionally see the ghost fire you created from the keyhole, but more often than not, it is the ball in Jixiang's room."
"By the way, I remembered, Chu Wuyuan ran out in fear that night, could it be because of that ghost fire?" Jiang Yi asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
"That's right!"
Chu Mufeng nodded and said affirmatively: "The ghost fire that Chu Wuyuan saw that night was actually made by Huang Junsheng!" ”
"He'll run out screaming, which is what I only thought about in the morning. Because when I was in the room just now, I had some stomach pain, and then I suddenly remembered that outside the auspicious room that night, in fact, in addition to Huang Junsheng, there was also Chu Wuyuan. The reason he gave at the time was also that he had an upset stomach and wanted to go back to his room to rest. ”
"Besides, didn't I ask you all yesterday? All have alibi! If Chu Wuyuan is really dead, then this matter has nothing to do with him. But he is still alive now, doesn't it mean that he was the best suspect in the alibi at that time! Chu Mufeng said vigorously.
"Chu Wuyuan, maybe everyone will guess whether you pretended to be scared when you ran out of the room that night, or were you really afraid!"
"But if you want me to say, you should be really scared, after all, if someone just killed someone, even if it is a second killing, they will feel horrified when they see the ghost fire pretending to be a ghost outside the window, right?" Chu Mufeng asked as if he was winning.
Chu Wuyuan just held the match and didn't move.
"Detective Chu, even if what you say is right, it can only prove that Chu Wuyuan himself is pretending to be dead. What about Zhao Dapeng? How was he killed by Chu Wuyuan? ”
"You also said that there is nothing wrong in the auspicious room, how do you explain that ghost fire? After Chu Wuyuan killed someone, how did he disappear without a trace with Zhao Dapeng's corpse? Yue Tong asked puzzled.
This question is the most difficult to solve.
It is also the most concerned by everyone, as long as this problem can be explained clearly, the whole thing will be solved.
"Actually, the reason is very simple!"
Chu Mufeng smiled slightly, and after seeing that the expression in Chu Wuyuan's eyes began to loosen and hesitate, he continued to say in a deep voice.
"In fact, from beginning to end, the killing process of Zhao Dapeng that I saw did not happen in the auspicious room at all, but in the Yinhai room next door! In other words, when we felt surprised and incomprehensible, Zhao Dapeng's corpse was only separated from us by a wall, in the Yinhai room. Chu Wuyuan, am I right? ”
"You ......"
Chu Wuyuan's strength in holding the match weakened significantly, and there was a hint of struggle on his face.
This person is like this, if he takes advantage of that ruthlessness to kill himself, then he is really not saved.
But if you talk about the energy of the past, those who want to jump off the building will regret it, those who want to hang themselves will kick over the stool, and those who want to drink medicine can smash the bottle, and no one still wants to seek death and life.
One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.
It's as simple as that.
"Huh? You say the entire homicide took place inside Silversea's room? How can it be? How can you see if it's happening there? You don't have a clairvoyant eye! Yue Tong's voice suddenly rose.
The rest of the people also looked puzzled.
"It doesn't matter if you have a clairvoyant eye or not, what matters is to be able to deduce the right conclusions. The person I saw at the time wearing the patient uniform of Xihua Hospital was Chu Wuyuan, and he also strangled Zhao Dapeng to death in Yinhai's room, so there would be no abnormality that disappeared for no reason, because there was no need to disappear at all. ”
Chu Mufeng pretended to walk casually and said, in order to find a suitable position and take Chu Wuyuan down in one fell swoop, but Chu Wuyuan was very vigilant and followed him wherever he went.
"Detective Chu, then how can you see what happened in the Yinhai room from the keyhole of the auspicious room?" Jiang Duxue asked with confusion.
The answer to this question, Chu Wuyuan obviously will not take the initiative to explain.
"It's easy!"
Chu Mufeng raised his hand and gestured, and said unhurriedly: "You carefully recall the location of the Jixiang and Yinhai rooms. ”
"Directly opposite the auspicious door is the desk, next to the bed, and there is no window in the innermost. And Silversea? If you enter through the doorway, you will see a desk against the wall on the right, a bed next to it, and a window in the innermost. ”
"To put it simply, the layout and decoration in these two rooms are 90 degrees of rotation, and there is a compartment door in the middle of the two rooms, you say that it is not impossible to see the scene inside the silver sea from the auspicious keyhole?"
Hearing this, the expressions of the rest of the people suddenly dawned.
Chu Wuyuan became more and more nervous the more he listened, and the arm holding the match was obviously lowered, no longer as stubborn as just now, so he had to self-immolate.
"It's finally working!"
Chu Mufeng showed a kind of satisfaction in his heart, but he didn't dare to stop, and continued to stare at Chu Wuyuan, wanting to fundamentally disintegrate his psychological defense.
It's really troublesome!
If it weren't for the matches he had in his hand, if it weren't for the gasoline everywhere, he would have been able to take him down easily, and he wouldn't even dare to fire a gun right now.
"No, Detective Chu, you still haven't explained how you can see the opposite room from the keyhole." Yue Tong had obviously listened to it, thought about it and asked.
"Naturally, there is a reason!"
Chu Mufeng looked at Jiang Yi as he spoke, "Jiang Yi, do you remember that we went to Xihua Hospital before we came?" I happened to meet a doctor there who showed me the latest device: an endoscope. ”
"This kind of mirror is a medical device, it can reflect light, if you say that you have an endoscope like this in two rooms, you say it will make sense."
I see.
It dawned on everyone.
With the help of such an endoscope, you can indeed see the scene in the room of Silversea.
In this way, Chu Mufeng's analysis was right, at that time, it was Chu Wuyuan who was killing people next door, and he was openly performing how to strangle Zhao Dapeng in front of so many people!
"Brother Chu, could it be that the strange friction sound I heard at that time was that Chu Wuyuan was pulling the endoscope back?" Jiang Yi patted his forehead and asked.
"That's right!"
Chu Mufeng nodded: "You are very right, Chu Wuyuan was next door at the time, he began to pull the endoscope after hearing Sun Xiaolong's scream, and the sound he heard at that time was this." ”
"It's just that Chu Wuyuan, you have already killed Zhao Dapeng, and you killed him a second time just to let us see it, don't you think it's cruel and perverted to do so?"
Chu Wuyuan's face changed uncertainly.
He's almost at his limit.
"No, what about the endoscope, if you say so? There's no way that thing was pulled out of the keyhole, right? After all, that's not a small thing. At this moment, Lin Pinghe suddenly raised a question.
"Good question!"
Chu Mufeng bowed his head at Lin Ping and the other party's embarrassed expression, and said directly: "The endoscope was actually not taken away, this thing was dropped in the trash can at the time, and I almost tripped over the trash can when I went in, so I clearly remember that it was placed at the door at the time." ”
"But you know what? When I went back the next day, the trash can was in front of my desk. And all the trash cans in Xihuayuan are placed under the desk, and this illusion made me not think of this for a while. ”
Now it seems that Chu Wuyuan should have taken the endoscope away, and then put the trash can back under the desk, so as not to leave a trace. But you would never dream that what you think is the perfect arrangement is just a clue to the problem that is exposed! ”
"Chu Wuyuan, don't you think that because of a trash can, your arrangement has become very abrupt?"
When Chu Mufeng explained all the details, Chu Wuyuan's body, which was holding the match, was like a puppet with a broken thread, and he collapsed to the ground, and the match was released from his palm.
Chu Mufeng stepped forward and kicked the match out with a single arrow step.
It's dangerous!
It almost started a monstrous fire!
Fortunately, at the last moment, he lost the determination to die
"Why, why are you coming, why are you demolishing me, why can't you let me die like this! I'm a sinner, I'm damned! ”
Chu Wuyuan's holding back energy was all dispersed, and the whole person only muttered like this, and his eyes looking at Chu Mufeng were full of resentment.
"I really want to die, can't you fulfill me? The more you expose my plan, the more you delay time, the more I dare not die, and the courage I finally mustered up is all gone. ”
"Of course I don't want you to die!"
Looking at Chu Wuyuan, whose face was like dirt, Chu Mufeng said lightly: "I think there is no one in this world who is not afraid of death, and besides, you are not a person who can really be ruthless and dare to commit suicide, if you really want to commit suicide, you would have died a long time ago, why wait until now." ”
"I want to ask, if you want to commit suicide now, do you want to atone for Chen Jianghe?"
"You shouldn't stop me! You should have let me die! Chu Wuyuan drooped his head and said with a little resentment and helplessness.
"Confused!"
Facing Chu Wuyuan, who was still obsessed until now, Chu Mufeng suddenly scolded him, revealing an extremely angry look in his eyes.
"Do you really want to die? Do you really think that such a death will solve all problems? Is it true that death is a liberation in your eyes, and that only by dying can you be atoned for? ”
"Do you know that you can atone for your sins when you are alive, but if you die, you will have nothing. Chen Jianghe is still lying on the hospital bed, he is better than dead and still alive, you are obviously alive but you are like a walking corpse, you have to die. ”
"If you really feel so sorry for him, you should not die, and you should live to atone for your sins."
"Die! What a simple thing, but can you die if you want to die now? You killed Zhao Dapeng, killed Sun Xiaolong, and now you want to die, how can it be so easy to do a good thing! ”
"It's easy for you to die, what about your family? Let them live the rest of their lives with the hats of the families of murderers? Chu Mufeng made a generous statement.
"No, I didn't want to let them do that!"
Hearing this, Chu Wuyuan suddenly shouted sharply, a look of struggle appeared on his face, and he shouted in pain.
"If I wanted them to do that, I wouldn't have gone to such trouble to come up with this murderous plan. I'm doing this to put an end to it and make you all think I'm a victim too. ”
"As long as I burn this place, all evidence will be covered up. It was you, it was you who appeared, it was you who ruined it all, it was you who destroyed all my hard work, I hate you! ”
"I said, why are you so ignorant? Could it be that Brother Chu saved you wrongly! Jiang Yi shouted indignantly.
"Help me?"
Chu Wuyuan showed a self-deprecating wry smile and said, "Did I beg him to save me?" I just wanted to die, and I finally mustered up the courage to die, and now it's gone. ”
"Besides, did he really save me? I understand the truth that the murderer pays for his life, I killed Zhao Dapeng and Sun Xiaolong, do you think I can still live? It must be a gun, both horizontal and vertical, and early death can be early relief. ”
"You ......"
Jiang Yi's words came to his lips but suddenly stopped, yes, his anger didn't seem to make any sense at all, could it be that Chu Wuyuan was wrong?
That's right, he's a murderer, and he's going to die.
If they all want to die, why should they be saved?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yi was a little confused.
"That's how you want to die, don't you? Before you die, I think you should apologize to Miss Lou first, you probably don't know it yet, right? He is Chen Jianghe's own sister! Chu Mufeng said indifferently.
"You...... You are really ......" Chu Wuyuan's face was shocked, and he asked with doubts.
"Yes, I'm Jianghe's own sister." Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Lou Yuwei responded directly, but her eyes were full of indifference.
"I'm sorry!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Wuyuan knelt down abruptly in front of Lou Yuwei, and cried with tears on his face: "Please forgive me, it's all because of me that I made the river like that, I'm sorry!" ”
"I've heard Jiang He talk about you, and I know that you used to be best friends, and you were like-minded, and you also like to write detectives, and you've worked together a lot, right?"
Lou Yuwei said with a cold face, hearing these words, Chu Wuyuan no longer had any doubts, he knew that Lou Yuwei was definitely Chen Jianghe's own sister, otherwise it would be impossible to know these things.
"I haven't heard Jiang He talk about you once?" Chu Wuyuan asked.
"That's because I won't let him say it."
Lou Yuwei also choked back tears in her eyes, choked up and said: "My sister is a bit embarrassing to him, I don't want anyone to know about my existence, he is a college student with a bright future, how can he be embarrassed because of this sister!" ”
"So it's normal that you don't know, and only Teacher Gan knows about me in the whole school. But Jiang He likes to talk to me about you, your dreams, and that you will write the best detective and become a famous writer in the future. But why did you betray him? If it weren't for your betrayal, would he have thought about it and would have chosen to hang himself? ”
Chu Wuyuan, who heard this, collapsed immediately.
Tears fall uncontrollably.
"Yes, it's all my fault, it's me who was blinded by lard, it's my fear that buried the friendship between me and Jianghe, and made Jianghe like that."
"You know what? In fact, Jiang He and I used to be best friends, and he has always regarded me as his best friend. That's why he told me a lot of his secrets, including his dream of not his current profession, but his home. ”
But he will not abandon his current profession, because this is his mother's dream, and he will not let her down. I love that, too, so the two of us create detectives together. Now that I think about the days when I sat together and discussed the plot when I had nothing to do, I really miss it. ”
"Detective Chu, Sister Lou, do you know? Jiang He and I once collaborated on a book, a detective that only we know. We dream of one day publishing this book and selling it in bookstores. ”
"Before he committed suicide, he always thought of me as his best friend, and even after I chose to turn my back, he still thought so."
When he said this, Chu Wuyuan's face was full of tears and his nose, and he said in a choked voice: "It's all my fault, it was I who betrayed him and betrayed the friendship between us, that's why he ended up in that tragic end, and now he is lying on the hospital bed worse than dead, but there is a reason why I will do that!" ”
"It was my cowardice that hurt him and me!"
"At that time, I knew that Zhao Dapeng's father was a banker, and Sun Xiaolong's uncle was a big man in our school, but even so, I didn't mean that I was afraid of their family, after all, those who were a little far away from me, I was only afraid of Zhao Dapeng and Sun Xiaolong, I was afraid that if the person who was bullied was not Chen Jianghe, it would become me!"
"That's why I choose betrayal, and I become a coward! I'm just an ugly coward! I really just want to end my life, I just want to die to apologize! ”
"Then go die!"
Lou Yuwei took a deep breath, and after controlling all her tears, she said in a cold voice, and there was no sympathy or pity in her eyes when she looked at Chu Wuyuan.
If you want her to repay her grievances with virtue, is it possible?
Those who say such things because they did not happen to themselves, if their loved ones are turned into vegetative people and lying in bed unable to move, will they still persuade others to do so?
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Therefore, Chu Mufeng saw Lou Yuwei like this, without the slightest surprise or strangeness, and naturally he would not stop it.
"I will die, I want to die too, especially when I see Jiang He's suicide note, I want to die even more!" After Chu Wuyuan said this, Lou Yuwei's expression suddenly became stiff.
"Jianghe has a suicide note? Where is it? ”
"The suicide note is in the box under my bed, and you will naturally find it if you go back to Beiping City. Seriously, I didn't think it would be like this either. ”
"When Jiang He committed suicide, I was at school, and I was present when the teacher took him down, and I found that he was unconscious, because he was afraid that he would mention my name in the suicide note, so I took advantage of the teacher's defenselessness to quickly look for it, and then secretly took the suicide note from his pocket."
Chu Wuyuan's lips trembled, his face turned pale, and he ignored the unpleasant and pungent smell of gasoline on his body, and said to himself.
"He shouldn't blame you in his suicide note, right?" Chu Mufeng said with a sigh.
"How do you know?" Chu Wuyuan shouted with wide eyes.
"It's easy!"
Chu Mufeng said in a calm tone: "If there is any hatred for you in the suicide note, you will definitely not want to die like you do now, let alone want to kill Zhao Dapeng and Sun Xiaolong, right?" ”
"Yes, that's right!"
Chu Wuyuan squatted on the ground, holding his head, and shouted with shame and pain while pulling his hair hard.
"In the suicide note, Chen Jianghe didn't mean to complain to me, let alone hateful words, he didn't even mention what Zhao Dapeng and Sun Xiaolong did to him, what he mentioned the most was sorry for his mother."
"Also, he said one thing that made me ashamed, and that was our creation, and he hoped that I would finish it when he died."
"When I saw this, I had only one thought, I'm going to die! What's the point of my life, my best friend is dying thinking about me and his dreams, thinking about our future, but how do I do it? I easily betrayed my friendship and chose to bow to cowardice! ”
