Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei walked directly to the third floor with Ye Qimin from the stairs.

On the third floor, there are guest rooms on both sides, and there is only a passage more than three meters wide in the middle, but there is a water room and a toilet directly opposite the stairs.

When he arrived at the stairs, Xiao Linghu took a special look at the ground, and sure enough, as Yizhimei said, there were some blood stains, but now these blood stains have dried up, and they appear to be black on the cement floor.

There was no carpet on the stairs, but there was a dark red carpet in the hallway, and the blood dripped, so that nothing could be seen.

"I'm not wrong, am I?" Yizhimei said: "Those blood stains came down from above, and they went to the third floor, and then there were no more!" ”

Ye Qimin looked at Yizhimei, and at this time, Yizhimei had already taken out the braces he had stuffed in his mouth and restored his original thin face.

"However, I have checked all the houses on the third floor!" He said: "There are twenty-one rooms on both sides, and the one at the top is still a luxury suite!" ”

"Did you ask the registry?" Xiao Linghu asked.

Ye Qimin said: "Of course I asked, there are now 160 guests staying in this hotel, most of them are Europeans and Americans, and there are also Japanese. However, most of the third floor is standard rooms, and only three rooms are not occupied. ”

"All the guests have checked?"

"Yes!" Ye Qimin said: "On this floor, there are twelve rooms where Europeans and Americans live, which can be seen at a glance; There were also four rooms where Japanese lived, and I checked their documents and asked them to take off their clothes, and I didn't see any injuries on their bodies; The other two rooms were occupied by Chinese businessmen from Hong Kong, and they were also very cooperative with my search, and there was nothing suspicious. ”

"So, what about the three empty rooms?" Yizhimei asked.

Ye Qimin said: "There are two rooms that are close to the toilet, and the furnishings are very simple, only two beds, and there is no hiding at all, and I heard the registrar say that these two rooms have not been inhabited for a few days!" ”

"What about the last one?"

"The last one is the luxury suite at the top!" Ye Qimin pointed to the north head and said, "Listen to the registrar, this house was returned in the morning!" ”

"Let's go and have a look at that suite!" Xiao Linghu relied on his intuition and felt that there should be something wrong with that house.

At that moment, Ye Qimin and his subordinates, who had already taken the door key of the entire floor, walked along the corridor to the north and opened the door.

As soon as he came in, Xiao Linghu felt that Huo Ran was cheerful, and he was no longer as depressed as in the corridor.

This is a living room with a living room on the outside, and a bedroom suite inside, with a sofa, coffee table, wine table, and writing desk, and a wooden hanger near the door, and a shoe cabinet next to it. Inside, there is a large double bed in the bedroom, and a row of tall wardrobes standing against the wall, just like the home.

Xiao Linghu pushed open the bedroom door and took a look, and saw that the bed was covered with clean and neat white sheets, which should have been cleaned up by the cleaners. He went back to the living room, and found a window on the north side, so he came to the window, from which he could see the temporary warehouse of Qichang Foreign Company across the road, because there was a tree blocking it, although he could see that side, it was not suitable for a cold gun here.

"Inspector Ye, have you ever asked who is living in this house?" While looking at the stevedores who were still busy in the temporary warehouse of Qichang Foreign Bank, Xiao Linghu asked.

Ye Qimin shook his head, but he thought of something, and said to one of his subordinates: "You go and call that registrar!" ”

The man said yes and ran out.

Yizhimei looked at Xiao Linghu in surprise and said with a smile: "Do you still want to solve the case here?" ”

Xiao Linghu didn't answer, and asked Ye Qimin again: "Did you check all the places here just now?" ”

"Yes!" Ye Qimin said: "In the cabinet, under the bed, there is nothing suspicious. ”

Xiao Linghu walked to the door, suddenly leaned down, and found a black spot on the ground under the door frame, he wiped it with his index finger casually, and then stretched it out to see that it was a drop of blood that had not yet dried.

"There's blood!" Ye Qimin and Yizhimei screamed almost at the same time.

All of them searched the ground as if they were looking for gold, hoping to find even a second drop of blood.

To everyone's disappointment, however, the ground was so clean that it had apparently been carefully dragged with a mop, and they could all see the drag marks of the mop.

The patrol who was sent down by Ye Qimin quickly came back and called the registrar at the front desk.

Ye Qimin asked, "Who was the person who stayed in this suite yesterday?" ”

The registrar tried to recall, "It's a Tianjin man in his forties!" ”

"Tianjin people?" Xiao Linghu and Ye Qimin were both stunned.

"Yes!" The registrar said: "He is Mr. Wang, this name must be fake, but his accent is Tianjin accent!" ”

Ye Qimin was a little disappointed, he thought it should be a Japanese.

"Sousuke Ono, he's a Tianjin accent!" Xiao Linghu seemed to have thought of something.

The registrar looked at the waiter in front of him in surprise, and he didn't remember that there was such a person in their restaurant, but he didn't dare to ask more.

Ye Qimin asked the registrar to describe the appearance of the Tianjin accent man, and he became more and more sure of Xiao Linghu's guess.

"It's Sosuke Ono indeed!" Ye Qimin said, as the chief inspector of the public concession, Sousuke Ono is active here, so he naturally has to deal with him. Moreover, there have been several murders in the open concession, all of which are inseparable from Sosuke Ono, and Ye Qimin naturally recognizes him.

Ye Qimin asked some other questions, and the registrar answered truthfully, seeing that there was nothing more to ask, Ye Qimin sent him out again.

"Don't think about it, Noda Takahiko must have hid in this house just now!" Xiao Linghu affirmed.

Yizhimei was a little anxious, he didn't understand that Xiao Linghu and he came to find Sha Wenhua, how could the company commander help Ye Qimin solve the case at this time?

"Company commander, let's go find Brother Xiahua, don't let those devils find him!" He urged.

Xiao Linghu said: "Maybe if you find Noda Takahiko, you will also find Brother Hua!" ”

Yizhimei said: "This room has been searched by Chief Ye just now, and now we have searched it again, and there is nothing?" There are so many things, if he hides them, where else can he hide them? Could it be that it is still in the sky? ”

Yizhimei's casual words made Xiao Linghu can't help but look at the roof of the house. This luxurious suite is really different from ordinary rooms, it is still hung from the ceiling with plasterboard, and there are several downlights on it, which can shine a warm light at night.

It's just that when Xiao Linghu took a closer look, he suddenly saw that in the corner of the roof, there was clearly a dark watermark oozing out of the gap between the ceiling and the wall.

"What's over there?" He couldn't help but scream.

Everyone looked at the ceiling, and someone was already crying out: "It's blood!" ”
