Chapter 1001: Requiem for the Night (Part I)

Constable 1: "The victim, Mivit, 47, a musician, was killed at 7pm yesterday with another strangulation in the throat and a stab wound to the abdomen. ”

Constable 2: "According to the victim's wife, Ms. Filney, two suspects came to the house yesterday, one was the victim's apprentice, Mr. Sola, and the victim's former partner, Mr. Sidory. ”

Constable 1: "Although Mr. Sola was the victim's apprentice, he had been studying with the victim for almost three years, and he had not had a chance to perform on stage. Mr. Seedorey had played a pas de deux with the victim for five years, and both of them were in the spotlight at the time, but they broke off their collaboration a year ago, supposedly because Mr. Seetory made several mistakes during a performance, and although the audience did not hear it, Mr. Mirett did. ”

Sintrkuk: "Got it. ”

On June 17th, a murder occurred in the city of West Zeniske, and since the incident took place in an independent city, the Dark Shield sent a team of 'Silver Wolves' to investigate on the grounds of 'investigating whether there was an intention to seize control of the city'. B's identity told the police that 'the murderer investigating this case is related to someone who is trying to seize control of the city', and thus enters the scene

After all, the police are the police of the city, and they are also part of the independent city, if the initiators of this case are really a group of conspirators intent on seizing the city, the seriousness of this matter will involve a higher level, that is, the Dawning Council.

Don't let '. B'Investigate the true background of the murderer, and if anything really happens, and if the city is unknowingly controlled by an empire, once the Dawning Council finds out about it, the police in the city will be dismissed and pressed into the interrogation room of the Dawning Building

Max: "Lady Filney, is there anything else you can remember about what happened last night?" ”

Filney: "I remember that last night Sora and Mr. Sidori both came to visit at the same time, but Sora went into the piano room to talk to my husband first, and after 5 minutes Sora came out, and 1 minute later Sidori knocked on the door and entered. He stayed for about 2 minutes and then hurried away. But after Mr. Sidori had gone, and Sora came again five minutes later, and soon after that I made a scream, and when I rushed to look, I found Miret lying in a pool of blood, and Mr. Sidorey was here thirty minutes later. ”

Chris: "The crime took place in the piano room at the end of the hallway, was Mr. Mirett there all along?" ”

Philnie: "Yes. Because he was going to a concert in a few days, he kept himself in the piano room for the last few days, and even I could not enter the piano room unless I had his permission. However, even in my room on this side of the door, I heard him playing. ”

Max: "Piano sounds? Do you know what the sounds are? ”

Filney: "I'm sorry. Although my husband is a musician, I don't know anything about music or rhythm, but I heard five keys in the room. ”

Chris: "Five sounds? By the way, do you know what Mr. Mirett has when he plays the piano? ”

Filney: "Oh, there is one, I once walked to the door of the piano room and heard him play the same sound all the time, and although I don't know the rhythm, and the voice is very soft, I can hear that he plays it the same time. I asked him why he kept repeating it, and he said that the whole piece could only be perfect if he practiced each passage perfectly, so he would practice a small section over and over again, at least a dozen times. ”

Max: "Repeat? A dozen times? Five tones? Hmmm......"

Chris: "It's just the result of XT's on-site investigation. ”

Chris and Max were at the victim's wife, Ms. Filney, to investigate some of the confessions and get some information about the victim and the suspect. Hinter and Hitbels were in the piano room where the victim died, investigating clues at the scene

Sinterkuk: "Judging from the strangulation marks near the victim's throat, the victim was strangled by his elbow from behind, and judging from the traces, the murderer used great force, and left serious traces of folds of clothing, I am afraid that no fingerprints were collected on it." The strange thing is that the knife wound, the knife wound can obviously make the victim bleed to death after 10 minutes, as long as the victim is trapped and not let him move, it is okay, but why does the murderer have to work hard to strangle the victim's neck from behind? ”

Hitbels: "Either the hatred is too great, or the ......"

Hinter Cook amp; Hitbels: "The person who stabbed the knife and the one who strangled the victim are two different people!" ”

Hinter Cook: "Looks like I thought of going together." In other words, two suspects, one attacked the victim with a knife, and the other directly strangled him. However, it is uncertain whether the victim was stabbed first and then strangled to death, and the second person, believing that the victim was just asleep, retaliated against the victim for some reason, and left after stabbing him in the stomach. ”

Hitbels: "But I'm afraid, it's the former." Because...... (points to the piano)"

Hinter Cook: "Five bloodstained keys with a little bit of dust? It seems obvious that from the strangulation marks, whether it is strangled or strangled, the result will be death after being strangled, so it is impossible to leave this death message when you get up. ”

Sheriff: "Excuse me, do you have any results?" ”

Hitbels: "From the injuries on the victim's body, we believe that the victim was first stabbed in the abdomen and then strangled in the neck, but due to the passage of time, we cannot tell from the strangulation marks whether the victim was strangled and fainted or strangled to death. ”

Sheriff: "In other words, you can't tell who the murderer is......"

Officer: "Report!" ”

Sheriff: "What's wrong?" ”

Officer: "After we pressed the two suspects, we found a bloodstained knife from Sora's body!" ”

Everyone: "What?!" ”

Sheriff: "Very well, then the case can be decided!" ”

Hinter Cook: "No, it can't be that simple. ”

Soon, everyone was called to the lobby of the room, and Sora was escorted by two police officers, who were now nervous because the knife that had pierced Mivit had been found from him. Although the sheriff was already a little frowning and was ready to announce Sora's crime here, Sintr and the others still had some concerns

Sheriff: "Ms. Filney, we'll give you an explanation now. The assailant, Sora, came here today, and after entering the piano room where the victim Mi Vit was, because Mr. Mi Vit did not agree to let you perform on stage, you became angry and stabbed the victim in the abdomen. Because you were nervous and didn't know what to do, you took the knife and walked out, but in order not to make the victim's wife, Ms. Filney, suspicious, you pretended to be calm and walked out slowly. ”

Sora: "I... I do...... Want to express yourself... That's why I asked the teacher... I was given a chance to show myself on stage, but the teacher just wouldn't give me and said... I... I don't have the qualifications at all... Say I...... It's just a musical idiot...... My mind was messed up, and when I was awake...... I found out that I had a bloody knife in my hand, and the teacher's abdomen... Also...... There is also a stab mark. ”

Filney: "Sora, why are you ......?"

Sheriff: "Lady Filney, hear me first. Not long after Sora left, Mr. Sidori entered the piano room and found the victim who had fallen to the ground, at this time the victim should have little strength, although he covered the wound, but the blood still kept flowing out, although it would not die directly, but the victim would die in ten or twenty minutes, so the victim urgently called Mr. Sidorey to go to the pharmacy to buy drugs to stop bleeding, and he himself tried his best to cover the wound, and kept lying down to prevent the blood from flowing out quickly. Mr. Sytorie, who knew that the victim did not have enough time, did not have time to explain the situation to Ms. Filney, so he ran out, but by this time the pharmacy was all closed, so Mr. Sytorie rushed back 30 minutes later, trying to find another way to stop the bleeding, but found that the victim was dead at this time. The reason for his death was very simple, because not long after Mr. Seetorie left, Sora came back, because of his timidity, he wanted to see how the victim was doing, but then he was afraid that he would be provoked by something, so he directly stepped forward and strangled the victim. Then, he shouted, trying to pretend that the victim was not killed by him, which is the whole process of this case. ”

Sildori: "That's right. ”

Sora: "But... But...... I... I didn't have ......"

Constable 1: "The evidence is conclusive, what do you have to deny!!" ”

Sheriff: "I'll arrest you now for murder and take him back to the police station!" ”

Officer 2: "Yes!!" ”

Chris: "But how do you explain the bloodstains in the piano room?" It was exactly five blood-stained finger marks, pressed on the keys. ”

Sheriff: "What's so strange about that?" Isn't it that when he was strangled by Sola, the victim wanted to resist, so the hand that had covered the wound before pressed on the keys. Now that this case has been convicted, there is nothing to do with you. ”

Max: "But ......"

Sheriff: "I've seen Sora's profile, he was born in poverty, he loved music since he was a child, that's why he worshipped Miwitt as a teacher, he can't be some plot to seize the city, those who are insidious, you can go back." Let's go!! ”

Max: "Damn, how can there be such a person, there are still many doubts in the case that have not been solved, so the suspect was taken away." ”

Hitbels: "It's not surprising that they want to end this murder sooner rather than later, because if the investigation continues, if the results are not satisfactory, it may involve something bigger." ”

Chris: "So what do we do?" Watching them take away the suspects? ”

Hinter Cook: "XT, did you notice, the names of the two suspects, and... That sheet music! ”

Hitebels: "I've noticed it for a long time. ”

Max: "What sheet music?" What's the name? ”

Sintle Cook: "That's the score that the victim has been practicing, and it should be the piece that will be played in the concert in the future." However, there are only three notes on the score, which are at the end of the final section, and none of these notes have appeared on the score before. That is to say......"

Chris: "Three tones? It's hard to be! ”

Hinter Cook: "That's right, that's the murderer!" ”
