"I was at the island café in the third ring city of Tiandu yesterday. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Ye Chang's eyes were still empty and blank, and he said expressionlessly in the face of Gu Fan and Ye Xiaoworm in police uniforms.

After Gu Fan and Ye Xiaoworm finished questioning Dean Wang Changming, they immediately went to the office of academician Ye Chang, this young scientist in his early thirties was obviously very different from his teacher's personality, and he did not welcome the arrival of Gu Fan and Ye Xiaoworm, but he did not dislike it, but he looked extremely cold—as if the two policemen were just two objects in the office.

"Yesterday all the time?" Gu Fan crossed his fingers and confirmed.

"Yes." Ye Chang still had a cold expression: "I go to the island café every weekend to sit all day. ”

"So, what do you do at the café?"

"Read a book."

"Reading yesterday too?"

"Yes."

"Can you tell me the title of the book?"

"White Night Walking."

"Ha, Keigo Higashino's masterpiece, I also like this novel very much."

Ye Chang raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Fan at this time, and there was a slight hint of brilliance in his empty eyes, but then he immediately lowered his eyelids and replied lightly: "Yes." ”

Gu Fan and Ye Xiaoworm glanced at each other, and both got up: "Then, let me make a final confirmation...... Dr. Ye, you stayed at the island café within the 3rd Ring Road of Tiandu yesterday from morning to evening, right? ”

"Yes."

"Need to think again? Maybe there's something missing. ”

"No, I don't."

Gu Fan was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Then, we will go to the island café to confirm." ”

"Feel free."

Seeing that Ye Chang didn't care about the attitude of the two, Gu Fan also knew that he might not be able to ask anything, so he immediately pulled Ye Xiaoworm and said goodbye politely: "Then let's leave first, if there is any new progress in the case - or where we need Dr. Ye's help, we will visit again." ”

Ye Chang only stood up from his office chair at this time, looked at the two police officers who were about to leave, and said lightly:

"Slow down and don't send it."

……

"Guys, your grilled fish is ready."

At noon, Officer Liang and Gu Fan deliberately drove to the vicinity of the Marvel Cinema in the Fourth Ring Road of Tiandu and found the grilled fish restaurant that Wang Changming mentioned yesterday as the destination for lunch for several people.

The black-clothed waiter brought the grilled fish on a tray to the table of several people, and then smiled professionally at them and slowly retreated.

"Come, Lao Liang, try this grilled fish, I heard it tastes very good." Gu Fan, who was sitting opposite Officer Liang, had already picked up his chopsticks and beckoned.

"Yes, Chief Gu."

Officer Liang was about to take a bite, but found Ye Xiaoworm walking briskly from the counter of the grilled fish restaurant: "The grilled fish is served so quickly?" You don't wait for me. ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Gu Fan said unceremoniously: "What you want to check, have you found out clearly?" ”

Ye Xiaoworm sat next to Gu Fan, first took a piece of steaming fish meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and then said in a slurred voice: "Check it out, at about twelve o'clock yesterday, Wang Changming and his son Wang Junxing came to eat together. ”

After hearing this, Gu Fan pondered for a while, and then asked Officer Liang opposite him, "Old Liang, Li Mingduan and Duan Zexin...... over there"

"Vice President Li went to the drama with his wife yesterday afternoon and didn't go home until the evening...... I've checked with the theater. Officer Liang preemptively said: "As for Duan Zexin...... Yesterday he was still working overtime in the Academy of Sciences, and as a semi-military restricted area, Academician Duan's entry and exit had to be reported by the army, so it was also a very advantageous alibi. ”

Ye Xiaoworm also interjected at this time: "On our side, Ye Chang was in the island café all day yesterday, and since he was a frequent customer, the store staff on duty that day quickly confirmed this - so this young academician did not have the opportunity to commit the crime directly." Looking at it now, if there is any alibi that is a little unreliable, it should be Wang Changming and Dean Wang. ”

"No, after returning to the police station, I transferred the surveillance video of Dean Wang's home, which showed that Dean Wang had indeed stayed in the study all the time in the afternoon." Officer Liang immediately denied Ye Xiaoworm's words.

"Is it possible that the surveillance footage is fake?"

Officer Liang shook his head: "Impossible...... At present, all the surveillance videos of Tiandu are transmitted in real time on the Internet, and they are backed up by the National Cyber Security Bureau...... Even if Dean Wang could have tampered with the surveillance video from his home, it would have been impossible to falsify the copy of surveillance transmitted to the Cyber Security Bureau that afternoon. ”

"In this way, the four suspects have alibis......" Gu Fan leaned on the back of the chair and muttered, "However, why do you always feel that something is wrong?" ”

"Is Chief Gu a suspicious object?" Officer Liang asked cautiously.

"Ah, it's not a suspicion." Gu Fan groaned: "I just feel that there are a few things that are contrary to common sense." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I always think there's something wrong with that leaf." Gu Fan said lightly.

"Ye Chang?" Officer Liang's eyes widened, a little incredulous: "Ye Chang is the youngest of the four suspects!" ”

"Judging by the alibi, it is." Gu Fan nodded: "Let's talk about Wang Changming first, at present, he is the most suspicious of the four...... Despite the presence of surveillance footage as an alibi, I still believe that evidence of this magnitude can be falsified; Although Li Mingduan claimed to have watched a drama with his wife for an afternoon...... However, the fact that the drama only requires a ticket check at the time of admission does not rule out the possibility that they will leave the theater early - and besides, the wife's testimony is not enough to be strong evidence, which is also a common sense thing; Duan Zexin seems to have been staying in the Academy of Sciences, but as an old academician of the Academy of Sciences for more than ten years, I also have every reason to suspect that he may know some hidden passages to leave the floating spacecraft. ”

"Only this Ye Chang ......"

He sat in a large café for a whole day...... There are countless witnesses who can prove that he did not have any chance or possibility of committing murder. ”

"It's a perfect alibi!"

Gu Fan frowned and said coldly, "Old Liang, don't you think this is very strange? ”

"This ...... What's strange about this......" Officer Liang wiped the cold sweat from his head and stammered.

"This Ye Chang seems to have picked a weekend and obediently stayed in the café all day, deliberately letting countless witnesses come to exonerate himself......

Gu Fan took a piece of fish meat, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, and said slowly: "Generally, in speculative novels, murderers ......."

"It's often the least likely one!"

Officer Liang: "......"

Leaf worms: "......"
