Chapter 1130: The Secret of the Dagger
"What is this dagger?"
Looking at Liu Xing, who wanted to speak and stopped, Dio sighed and said: "This is Mai Yuqiang's dagger, he went back to Duwang Town once the day before yesterday and took away some things that he didn't have time to take away last time, and I also had a drink with him at that time, but when I woke up, he was gone, but this dagger fell to the ground, so I put this dagger in Mai Yuqiang's original room, and I was going to give it to him the next time I saw him." ”
Alice took a pair of plastic gloves from her pocket and put them on, before taking the dagger and examining it with a magnifying glass.
After a while, Alice nodded and said, "This dagger has two people's fingerprints on it, if nothing else, it should be Mai Yuqiang and Dior... ”
"Not mine!"
Dior said seriously: "It is impossible to have my fingerprints on this, because I met a friend after coming to the island country, his profession is a reasoner, so he talked to me about many interesting cases, which mentioned that some criminals will find a way to erase their fingerprints in order to avoid leaving any clues again. As a result, my friend and I prepared a solution on a whim and wiped out all our fingerprints. ”
As he spoke, Dior showed Liu Xing and the others his fingers, which indeed had no fingerprints on them.
"I'm already planning to live in seclusion in Duwang Town for the rest of my life anyway, so it doesn't matter if I have fingerprints or not, but this friend of mine is unlucky, because there are many places where fingerprints are needed now, so he now wants to go for an operation to recover his fingerprints." Dior smiled and said: "So I can be sure that there is absolutely no mine in the two fingerprints above, Alice, if you don't believe it, you can ask your father to come to my fingerprints for comparison." ”
Hearing Dio say this, a trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of Liu Xing and Alice, but they didn't expect to find the dagger suspected to be in the case now, but instead of solving the original doubts, there were several new questions.
First of all, if this dagger is really the dagger in that case, then it proves that this case is related to the Is, and the Isis also played a very important role in it.
And then if Dio didn't lie, then this dagger should belong to Mai Yuqiang, but this dagger is not important to Mai Yuqiang, otherwise Mai Yuqiang would not have been able to drop the dagger here so casually... Of course, there is also a possibility that Mai Yuqiang deliberately dropped the dagger, but this possibility is very small in Liu Xing's opinion, because this dagger does not seem to be special at all, and if Mai Yuqiang really wants to throw away this dagger, it is better to throw it into the grass on the side of the road when he comes to Duwang Town, or throw it into the sea.
Therefore, unless Mai Yuqiang was controlled by the Isis, this dagger should not have been deliberately dropped here by Mai Yuqiang.
Of course, if Mai Yuqiang was controlled by the Iss, then Liu Xing would have to call him the strongest person, and after being possessed by Cthulhu, he was seamlessly controlled by the Isis, which was a great luck.
Finally, and most importantly, Dior no longer has fingerprints, so if this dagger is really the dagger in that case, there is a difficult question to explain - where did Dior's fingerprints come from?
Or that now that this dagger is in Dior's hand, it is impossible for fingerprints to appear, so what is the significance of this dagger appearing here? It can't be to let yourself and Alice take a look, right?
Isn't this the dagger in that case?
The more Liu Xing thought about it, the more he felt that his head was big.
At this time, Alice was no better than Liu Xing, because she couldn't figure out what was going on.
As for Dior, because he only knew that this dagger might be related to a case many years ago, and the suspect in this case was still himself, he looked at Liu Xing and Alice who fell into silence, and suddenly became a little scared.
Because he's been living in peace for so many years, he doesn't want to run around anymore.
Who would want to live a life of exile if they could?
Just then, Alice's cell phone rang suddenly.
Alice picked up her phone and looked at it, and said, "My father has found someone to check the dagger, and it has been determined that the dagger is still in the archives, but it is worth mentioning that part of the fingerprints on the dagger have disappeared, which is almost impossible." ”
"Fingerprints disappear? That's really unlikely, unless someone deliberately smears it. ”
Liu Xing frowned, feeling that this thing seemed to be getting stranger and stranger.
Wait, fingerprints disappearing?
Liu Xing suddenly remembered a possibility, and hurriedly said to Alice: "Alice, look at the fingerprints of this dagger again!" ”
Hearing Liu Xing say this, Alice also instantly understood Liu Xing's thoughts, and hurriedly checked the fingerprints on the dagger again.
After a while, Alice was surprised and said, "What's going on?" There are more fingerprints of a person on this dagger, and these fingerprints directly cover the previous fingerprints! ”
"Sure enough, this dagger is the same dagger in that case, but there must be some kind of special enchantment on this dagger, so that it can appear in the present and future at the same time, and it can also transfer the fingerprints on it!"
Speaking of this, Liu Xing looked at Dio and said, "Dio, think carefully now, have you ever owned such a dagger before!" Or have you left a lot of fingerprints on other daggers? ”
Dio closed his eyes and thought about it carefully, and then suddenly said: "Yes, I used to have a roommate from Northern Europe when I was in college, and he claimed to have Viking blood, so he used to play with flying axes when he was in his hometown, but after he arrived in college, it was naturally impossible for him to study with a bunch of axes, so he could only retreat to play with flying knives, of course, it was flying knives, but in fact, there were all kinds of daggers, so I also got a few daggers from him, and it was not bad to play with them when he was fine, And among them, there seems to be a dagger of this style, because this style is also very classic; But at that time, I was also a rich second generation, and I didn't care much about these cheap daggers, so I didn't know where to lose these daggers for a long time. ”
"Case closed."
Alice continued, "If my suspicion is correct, there are now three daggers, although it is possible that they are the same one; These three daggers are located in Dior's college days, the time of the crime and now, because of some kind of force, the fingerprints on these three daggers can be transferred to each other, of course, the most important thing is that this dagger should not be used to frame Dior, because it is very important in itself - since it can transfer fingerprints, then it should also be able to transfer text information, if it is used well, this is an extremely special, and unnoticeable communication device, of course, we can do an experiment now. ”
Alice took out her lipstick and tapped it on the handle and blade of the dagger.
After doing all this, Alice suddenly said with some worry: "But as far as the current situation is concerned, I suspect that there are two forces that are eyeing this or three daggers, one of them wants to get these daggers, and the other party does not want the other party to not get these daggers, but they also don't want to keep these daggers in their hands, which means that they don't want to fight directly with the other party... So I think we should get rid of this dagger, either just throw it away or destroy it. ”
As soon as Alice finished speaking, her phone rang again, "Sure enough, the lipstick on the dagger was teleported." ”
Hearing Alice say this, Liu Xing noticed that the lipstick on the dagger had disappeared at some point.
"Wait, my father only saw the lipstick on the dagger in England, but not on the grip?"
Alice said as she looked at Dior.
Dio knew what Alice wanted to ask, so he closed his eyes again and recalled the past, and after a while before nodding and saying: "If I'm not mistaken, the lipstick on this is indeed on the dagger I used in college, when I had a fight with my girlfriend because of this lipstick, I was really confused at the time, and I didn't know where this lipstick came from, so I suspected that this lipstick was my girlfriend's, and the purpose was to use this as a handle to ask for a breakup, So she became my ex-girlfriend. ”
Alice's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed, she didn't expect that she would be so casual and let Dior have an ex-girlfriend.
Seeing this situation, Liu Xing hurriedly stood up and said: "Since this is the case, then we can basically be sure that this should not be the same dagger, and three daggers of the same series, otherwise Alice's lipstick will not appear on those two daggers at the same time, so Alice, why don't you ask your master to see if he knows the origin of these three daggers." ”
"That's right, my master is well-informed, and he should know what the situation with these three daggers is."
After Alice finished speaking, she took out her mobile phone to call her master, while Liu Xing told Dior the ins and outs of the case completely.
"I see, I didn't expect me to be involved in such a strange case, fortunately Alice's father still believed me, otherwise I might have set out on the road of escape again." Dio said with a wry smile: "One thing to say, I am really lucky to encounter such a bizarre event, but unfortunately I didn't get any benefit from these events, and I had to leave my hometown and hide in the island country to die alone." ”
For a while, Liu Xing didn't know how to comfort Dior, because as Dior said, his luck was too "good", if Liu Xing didn't know his situation, otherwise Liu Xing would really think that Dior was a player.
Fortunately, Alice quickly walked back and said: "My master has really heard of these three daggers, or should I say that the raw materials of these three daggers - the communication stone, this is an ore that does not exist on the earth, its function is just like its name can be used to transmit information, but under normal circumstances, the communication tools made of communication stones are two by two, and only when they are injected with magic power, they will start to transmit information, so my master suspects that these three daggers were originally in other forms, However, because the original owner lost them, they were re-smelted as scrap and made into these three daggers, so these three daggers will automatically forward messages. ”
"Oh, what's going on with that case?" Dio couldn't help but ask.
Alice thought for a moment and said: "This kind of communication stone is very popular among mythical creatures, if you make a metaphor that may not be appropriate, this communication stone is a high-end mobile phone, the kind inlaid with diamonds, so my master thinks that this case may be someone, or the mythical creature found one of the daggers, and the family of three moved to buy daggers, and wanted to use this dagger to find the other two daggers, but they were given yin halfway, But I can't explain why the dagger in England wasn't taken, maybe the man who did it didn't feel the need to take it back? ”
"This should be a trap!"
Liu Xing continued: "This dagger should be a bait used to attract the three members of the family to show up, so after they kill the three members of this family, there is no need to recycle this dagger that is already considered scrapped." ”
At this time, Dio shook his head and said helplessly: "It's not important anymore, anyway, we haven't suffered any losses because of this... So why don't you take this dagger away, it's useless to keep it with me anyway, and you can make a pair with the dagger in England when you get it. ”
After Liu Xing and Alice glanced at each other, they took the dagger politely.
However, Liu Xing still has a question that has not been answered, that is, how could this dagger fall into Mai Yuqiang's hands.
It stands to reason that this dagger should be in England with the other two daggers, why did they come to the island country across the ocean, and they happened to be obtained by Mai Yuqiang?
As a macho man who is full of confidence in himself, Mai Yuqiang prefers to use his fists as weapons, so what is Mai Yuqiang doing with this dagger?
Liu Xing didn't think that Mai Yuqiang looked like the kind of person who could use a dagger.
So, it seems that if you have the chance, you have to contact Mai Yuqiang and ask him where he got this dagger from.
"By the way, Dior, what did you just want to do when you left the house?"
