Chapter 1220: Hot Spring Snowy Night (6)

Compared with the previous temporary dungeons, the biggest advantage of this dungeon is probably that modern investigation techniques and the police can be used by players, and the murders of previous temporary dungeons can usually only be investigated by the players themselves, and the investigation methods are quite limited, and the manpower is not enough, so it is a waste of energy and time.

And this time, including the corpse, the scene of the crime, going to the town to visit and investigate, and the questioning of all the suspects, these troublesome things are all handed over to the police, and An Yizhi just needs to wait for the results, I have to say that it is really easy and happy.

Before they could go upstairs with the keys given by the hostess, the police had already completed the questioning of all the suspects and put together the transcripts and handed them to Jimmy.

- and then Jimmy handed it to Ann Yizhi.

After a few commissions, Jimmy also seems to have an inexplicable admiration for Ann Yizhi, similar to John's and the brave invincible, basically only with An Yizhi, these two people's IQ is similar to degradation, and they don't bother to use their brains.

I guess Jimmy thinks the same way, he just needs to do a good job of the investigation and then watch Ann perform a finger.

But this did save An Yizhi a lot of trouble, and besides, he really likes to show off.

At the beginning of the record, the police questioned the suspect basically, such as name, gender, home address, work situation, etc., and the alibi of the time of the crime, everyone was very consistent and did not have any proof.

After all, the crime occurred in the early hours of the morning, and normal people were already asleep at this time, so naturally there was no alibi.

Of course, in addition to asking for an alibi, there are other things to ask about.

For example, there is a motive for killing.

Most of the inquiries in this area are asking A about B's situation and B about A's situation, rather than asking directly, which will be relatively more accurate.

Surprisingly, the gang seems to get along well on the surface, but when it comes to the motives for the killing, they are very surprisingly consistent.

- All of them.

It feels like a dead mayor to be a real failure.

First of all, the hostess of the hotel, because she opened a hotel, and although she is middle-aged, she still has charm, and many people have the intention of collecting both people and money, which is probably the right and wrong in front of the widow's door.

The most fanatical of the suitors is the mayor, in the town the mayor still has some rights, the proprietress can't refuse too directly, often harassed by the mayor, it is possible to design murder under the disturbance.

Then there is the proprietress son, Mike, who is said to have had a very fierce quarrel with the mayor of the town, and once threatened to ruin his reputation, and that was in the last year or two.

The police also questioned Mike about the incident, and he explained that the reason for the quarrel was that the mayor always pestered the proprietress to plot misdeeds.

In the same way, the proprietress daughter's daughter also has the same suspicions, because there is no father since childhood, and the two children value their mother very much, but compared to their older brother, their younger sister Tracy is not so intense, but the suspicion still cannot be ruled out.

Both were suspicious at the hotel, as were the other two who were guests at the hotel like the mayor.

The bus driver, Sveedy, was the town's miner captain, and he was very vocal about the mayor's closure of the mine, believing that the mine was not depleted and that it would continue to produce gems.

It was only because the mayor of the town embezzled public funds to enrich his own pockets, so that the town could not afford to buy advanced mining equipment and invite real experts to come over for prospecting, in order to avoid the East Window incident, he pretended that the mine had been exhausted, so that the town could transform and develop the hot spring industry.

Combined with the A4 piece of paper that shows evidence of how the mayor bribed high-ranking officials and embezzled public funds, it was indeed possible for him to expose the mayor for making the town's mines work again.

Erin, another at the hotel, had a grudge with the mayor because of her work.

At that time, Irene, who had graduated from college, planned to work in the city, and the company required that the hukou must be in the city, and when she came back to handle the transfer of the hukou, the mayor said that he was unwilling to sign and release her, and she had to bring a relative of her family to work in the city.

As a result, Erin had to stay in the town to open a gift shop because she didn't meet the employer's requirements, and it was entirely possible to resent the mayor's words because of this.

Therefore, it seems to be happy on the surface, but what is going on in the heart, or what grievances are between people in private, can never be seen from the surface.

Maybe this is the world of adults, the world of adults like shit.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

There are stairs leading to the second and third floors at both ends of the hotel, and the door is opened with the key obtained from the hostess, and Jimmy and Yasuchichi and Yumeko Mizushima go to the scene where the murderer may have carried out the murder.

"Mr. An, shall we go to the second floor first?"

"No, go directly to the third floor, I'm afraid the height of the second floor is not enough for the murderer to kill."

An Yizhi replied casually, and buried himself in the confession sent by the police.

All five suspects had a motive to kill, at best, a question of the severity of the motive, and each had the opportunity to commit the killing.

In this way, it will be more troublesome to find out who it is, and An Yizhi needs new evidence to lock down the murderer.

He only hoped that his guess was correct, and that the murderer had left some evidence at the scene, otherwise he would have to wait for the murderer to reveal himself.

And this is usually conditional on the recurrence of the murder.

The floors of the hotel are much higher than the average three-story residential building, and the stairs are very long, and since the hotel has only three floors, it is not easy to climb up the stairs if it is a particularly luxurious hotel.

It didn't take long for them to find themselves in the hallway on the third floor, which was decorated and furnished exactly like the first floor, except that there were no facilities such as hot springs and restaurants, and most of them were guest rooms.

The trio walked down the hallway to the left and found the room directly above the scene of the crime, following the location of the victim's death.

The door was locked, but the three of them brought the master key to the hotel, so that they would not run down to find someone to open the door again.

"It looks like it's the same layout downstairs."

Yumeko Mizushima said, looking inside the room.

An Yi pointed left and right, pointed to the bed and said:

"Traces of people sitting here lately, you look at the folds in the sheets."

The beds in the hostel are very tidy, especially in the unoccupied rooms. The proprietress also said that after entering the off-season, she locked the doors of the second and third floors upstairs, and there were traces in the room that someone had recently sat on the bed, which was obviously left by the murderer.

"I guess the murderer is likely to be waiting here for time, after all, his methods require a little precondition."

As she spoke, Ann reached out and pulled open the window across the bed.

The unique cold wind blowing in from outside made the three people in the room shiver, and then An Yi pointed to see a layer of dried blood on the slide under the window, although it was not much, but it was conspicuous enough.

"Sure enough."

He nodded, and looked up the window again.

Because of the geographical conditions where the hotel is located, the temperature here is very low, in order to keep warm, the windows are double-layered, the outside is aluminum alloy window frames, and the inside also has wooden window frames to ensure that the temperature is not lost to the greatest extent.

And above the aluminum alloy window frame near the outside, in a very inconspicuous position, An Yizhi saw three small holes the thickness of cigarettes, arranged in a triangle.

He then looked at the carpet under his feet, hoping to find more evidence, but unfortunately the murderer did a clean job and left nothing else.

"The murderer's method is roughly to drop a heavy object through the window here, hit the victim below, and finally recover the murder weapon and hide it, it's as simple as that."

Jimmy was stunned:

"But such a simple method is very difficult to implement, the crime happened in the early hours of the morning, although there were street lights outside, but the crime scene was in the corner of the left side of the hotel, it was relatively dim, how did he aim? You just said that he recovered the heavy object that was used as the murder weapon, but there was no third party at the scene of the crime except for the footprints of the victim and Mr. An. ”

"It's a very simple thing, look at the window over here."

He pointed to the window frame he had just looked at and said:

"There are three small holes above the aluminum window frame, where the killer drilled the screw holes in advance."

Ann pointed his hand to a size about the size of a human forearm and said:

"Just use a triangular metal frame, fix it to the window frame with screws and nuts, and if I'm not mistaken, there is a pulley in front of this metal frame, which not only allows him to drag the murder weapon up from below with less effort, but also prevents him from hitting the glass and wall downstairs when he pulls it up."

"Do you mean that the murderer threw a heavy object on a rope through a prepared iron frame and pulley?"

"Well, that's right. And I have some guesses about what exactly my murder weapon is. The results of the police autopsy showed that the victim was killed by a spherical weight with a diameter of 15 to 20 centimeters on the back of the head. ”

"Bowling? How heavy is it? ”

"Of course, don't look like it's very light on the outside, the inside of the bowling ball is solid, and the heaviest bowling ball is close to 10 kilograms, and if you drop it from the three-layer position, it's enough to kill people."

Then he pointed to the blood dripping from the window slipway and said:

"This should be the traces of the murderer when he recycled the bowling ball, it was too dark at that time, and the murderer didn't dare to turn on the lights, so he didn't notice it, but he was quite careful, and after the bowling ball was recycled, he directly stuffed it into a container similar to a plastic bag, and took it away and hid it along with all the tools of the crime."

"Even if your reasoning can kill people, how did the murderer take aim?"

"Simple, remember the piece of paper under the victim?"

An Yizhi poked his head out of the window, just in time to see the murder scene below, although the body had been removed, but the red blood could still be seen staying in place.

"In addition to the paper, there is also a slightly protruding snow mass under the victim's body, which is obviously different from the surrounding snow, which is the location point where the murderer locates the victim."
