Chapter 35: The Real Murderer Turned Out to Be.
Liu Xiaofei told Mr. Wang about his suspicions of Dr. Frankenstein and Countess Elena.
Teacher Wang thought carefully about the scene in the hall on the first floor just now: "It's weird, think left to right, neither Frankenstein nor Yelena left the first floor just now." β
The case was at an impasse for a while.
Zhao Fatzi was bored in every way, so he simply sat on the sofa and teased Miss Sansi'er: "Miss San'er, do you like cucumbers or eggplants?" This case is closely related, please answer truthfully! β
Miss Sansi'er thought for a moment and replied, "I like to eat eggplants. Eggplant tastes better than cucumber. β
Zhao Fatzi smiled obscenely: "I know that women like big ones!" β
Zhao Fatzi molested Miss Sansi'er and molested at the float flying. After a while, his mouth was dry. There was no water in the study. He walked unceremoniously over to the Count's "corpse", picked up the Count's cup of coffee and drank it down.
"I'll go, fat man, you don't dislike what the dead have drunk?" Liu Xiaofei said.
Zhao Fatzi had an indifferent expression: "Anyway, it's all a show, and the earl is not really dead." I'm dying of thirst. A cup of coffee can quench your thirst and refresh your mind, so why not? β
The housekeeper John said intimately, "I'll go downstairs and get some drinks for everyone." β
After a while, John returned to his study with a large silver tray. Inside the tray is a delicate white porcelain teapot and some cups.
Hu Dazhuang took the cup and took a sip: "This white porcelain teapot contains Coke?" β
Liu Xiaofei laughed again: "I didn't expect that the aristocrats at the end of the nineteenth century loved to drink civilian drinks, was there any coke at that time?" β
Butler John shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "I'm sorry detective, now in addition to some alcohol products, there is only a large barrel of 6-liter Coke left." The drama crew is too irresponsible. β
Everyone divided the cups, and there was exactly one less.
Liu Xiaofei said to Zhao Fatzi: "Fatty, you drank coffee just now, don't drink Coke." β
Zhao Fatzi glared: "Why?" Fat man, I don't like to suffer! β
Li Qian glanced at Zhao Fatman: "Fatty, you can drink less Coke." I'm already so fat, and if you drink something with such a high sugar content in Coke, be careful that you're fat! β
Not to be outdone, Zhao Fatzi said: "What's wrong with the fat man?" The fat man didn't eat your rice! β
Liu Xiaofei drank Coke while racking his brains to think about the case. Before I knew it, more than half an hour had passed.
Zhao Fatzi suddenly yawned: "It's weird, why are you so sleepy?" β
Zhao Fatzi sat on the sofa and snored in less than a minute.
Liu Xiaofei suddenly felt that something was wrong. Zhao Fatzi belongs to the kind of person who can't sleep after being dipped in coffee. A few days ago, at the WTH Organizing Committee to participate in the lottery ceremony, Zhao Fatzi drank a cup of coffee and did not sleep well all night.
Coffee? Say?! A thought flashed through Liu Xiaofei's mind.
Liu Xiaofei picked up the coffee cup beside the earl and looked at it for a while. He suddenly said to Li Qian: "Detective, take the residue in this coffee cup to Scotland Yard for forensic examination!"
Li Qian was confused: "Scotland Yard? Examine? Xiaofei, are you too deep into the play? Where is Scotland Yard, and where is there a forensic doctor! β
Unexpectedly, the clue indicator suddenly sounded: "At 2:56 a.m., after a forensic examination at Scotland Yard, there were sleeping pills remaining in the coffee cup." β
Liu Xiaofei slapped his thigh: "That's right! That's right! β
Teacher Wang asked Liu Xiaofei: "You mean, someone put a large amount of sleeping pills in the coffee cup to poison the earl?" β
Liu Xiaofei shook his head: "No, the lethal dose of sleeping pills, if I remember correctly, it should be more than 30 tablets." More than 30 sleeping pills in a cup of coffee, the taste is definitely more disgusting than the rhubarb urine sprinkled by a fat man. Only fools drink. If you put one or two slices, it will be different, and the rich aroma of the coffee will cover the medicinal taste. The effect of the medicine will make the Count sleep. The WTH organizing committee did a realistic job on this point, and actually put sleeping pills in the coffee cup. β
Li Qian said: "This is a double win. First, the plot is smooth. The second is to make the actor who plays the count fall asleep, more like a corpse. β
Liu Xiaofei didn't answer, just went back and forth to what the clue indicator said: "At 12:02, five detectives from Scotland Yard found Count Farkemi dead. On the neck of the corpse, there was a noticeable pinhole. It seems that he was injected with venom with some kind of needle and died... β
Only two study keys? Locked doors? Doctor Frankenstein and Countess Elena who have a female affair?
Liu Xiaofei suddenly remembered a detail: after the death of the earl, the countess Elena couldn't wait to bring the engagement ring given to her by Dr. Frankenstein. And where did the Count and her wedding ring go?
Liu Xiaofei said to Li Qian: "Close the door and let my sister go!" Sister, do you check if the countess has a ring on her? β
Li Qian walked up to Yelena and searched it, and sure enough, she found a ring in her clothes pocket.
This ring looks just like a regular ring. However, on closer inspection, there is a small needle tube several millimeters long underneath the ring. This syringe was obviously added later!
Liu Xiaofei walked up to the earl again. The count had several documents in front of him. Liu Xiaofei forgot to check just now. Open the file, the content of the file is black material about the crime of fraud committed by the count's business partner Plyushkin. It was clearly planted by the count for Plyushkin.
Liu Xiaofei laughed and said, "Okay! The truth is clear! The murderers are Dr. Frankenstein and Countess Elena! β
Yelena exclaimed, "You, bloody mouth!" β
Liu Xiaofei smiled: "Don't worry, madam, let me drink and talk carefully." β
Liu Xiaofei took a sip of Coke and said, "Yelena and Frankenstein have an affair, and the murder of the Count is full of motives. The Count was poisoned and died. For a doctor like Frankenstein, concocting a deadly poison is not a difficult task. The murder weapon was the wedding ring on Elena's hand. The ring had been modified to be filled with poison, and then injected into the Count's neck with the needle below. β
Yelena said angrily, "But I was on the first floor just now!" Never left at all! Didn't have time to go into the den and kill my husband! β
Liu Xiaofei nodded: "You have indeed been on the first floor." But who says the Count died before we came in? β
Teacher Wang was a little surprised: "Xiaofei, what do you mean?" Was the Count poisoned after we entered the room? β
Liu Xiaofei said: "Yelena put sleeping pills in the earl's coffee before the five of us detectives visited. She wanted to poison the Count while he was asleep with the modified ring with a small needle. Unfortunately, we came, and she didn't get a chance to do it. β
Liu Xiaofei said again: "Until Miss Sansi'er came to the door of the study and asked to see the earl, but found that the door was locked. Here's Countess Elena's chance! Everyone came up together, and after she opened the door with the key, she walked to the earl's side first, and while everyone was not paying attention, she used a poisonous needle to stab the earl, who was sleeping after drinking sleeping pills! That's what led to the death of the earl! To hide her attention, she replaced the murder weapon ring with the engagement ring given to her by Dr. Frankenstein. In this way, we can not only hide the murder weapon, but also disrupt our vision, killing two birds with one stone. β
Yelena glared at Liu Xiaofei: "Then how do you explain the locked study door?" Who locked the study door? β
Liu Xiaofei raised several documents in his hand: "It's the earl himself!" These documents were used by him to frame his business partner, Mr. Plyuskin. When sorting through these black materials, he doesn't want others to find out. So he locked the door himself. After drinking the coffee you had taken sleeping pills beforehand, he fell asleep. In other words, the Count himself accidentally caused a 'secret room murder' scene for himself. Actually, this is not a murder in a closed room! β
Teacher Wang said: "In other words, it was Dr. Frankenstein and Countess Elena who conspired to kill the Count. By mistake, we mistakenly thought it was a murder in a closed room, and thought that Yelena had no time to commit the crime, ruling out her suspicion. But in reality, she killed the Count in front of us, taking advantage of our inattention, with a delicate ring poison needle? β
Liu Xiaofei nodded.
"Beep~" The clue indicator sounded: "Are you sure that Countess Elena and Dr. Frankenstein are the murderers?" β
Liu Xiaofei took a deep breath and pressed the confirmation buttonγγγγγ
