Chapter 59: The Cup
After taking photos at the scene, Chu Ji waved at Fang Yujin and said, "Fang Yujin, come with me." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After Fang Yujin left the library with Chu Ji, Chu Ji suddenly said: "Now it's just the two of us, Fang Yujin, if you can trust me and think that I am not a murderer, if you find anything, just say it." ”
Fang Yujin shook his head and said: "You think too highly of me, I can't have a good brain, I can only see the surface of things, and I can't detect it in deeper places." I'd like to hear what you've discovered. The two said as they walked towards the main dining room.
Chu Ji said: "More than half of that book may have been opened by Qi Huawei. ”
Fang Yujin asked suspiciously, "Why are you so sure?" ”
Chu Ji raised his left hand and hung it on his chest and said: "Because of the placement of that book, Fang Yujin, the different desk heights, chair heights, the upper body height of the book readers, and even the posture of reading the book will lead to the difference in the position of the book, I just made a brief calculation and found that it is very consistent, and Qi Huawei is short-sighted." ”
Fang Yujin said in surprise: "Myopia? But in the game, his eyesight will likely return to normal levels. ”
Chu Ji nodded and said: "What you said is right, but don't forget, although the eyesight is normal, the posture habits that have accumulated over time cannot be changed, Qi Huawei's eyes are very close to the book when he reads, and a quarter of the length of the book just now is out of the desk, which is the position of the book when the myopic eye reads." They all read with books on their chests and their necks bent. ”
Fang Yujin looked at Chu Ji in amazement, and then he immediately asked, "But even if it proves that the book is Qi Huawei's book, what's the point?" ”
Chu Ji smiled and said, "Of course it makes sense, that book only turned 12 pages, do you know what it means?" ”
Fang Yujin suddenly realized, and immediately said: "Murder time!" ”
Chu Ji nodded and said, "That's right, the corpse spots, the degree of blood clotting plus the page number of the book, these pieces of evidence together explain one thing, Qi Huawei was killed in the morning!" He finished his breakfast and sat in the library for a short time before he was killed. ”
Fang Yujin said: "But will there be other possibilities? Qi Huawei put the book back after reading a book, which was actually the second book. Or is it the murderer who deliberately turned the pages of the book to disrupt your thinking? ”
Chu Ji said with a smile: "These inferences have a certain value, but the possibility is not high. ”
Then Chu Ji's face became a little solemn again, and he said, "And there are other suspicious points at that scene." ”
Fang Yujin asked, "Did you find it out?" What are the other doubts? I'm not as smart as you, so just say it. ”
Chu Ji glanced back at the dark corridor and whispered: "In addition to the table with books, there is also a chair in front of the desk that is a little crooked, I deliberately didn't talk about it at the time, just because I was afraid of alerting the murderer." ”
Fang Yujin said in surprise: "There is a chair that is a little crooked? Then Fang Yujin thought that the tables and chairs and other objects on the ship were placed by robots, each of which was very neat, and it was almost impossible for a robot with rigorous work to be placed crookedly.
Fang Yujin immediately said, "There is a second person from the library?" The guy pulled out the chair? ”
Chu Ji nodded and said: "It is likely to be the murderer, in order to paralyze Qi Huawei, he deliberately went to take a book and sit in the position to read, Qi Huawei naively thought that the other party was the same as himself, and he also came to the library to read." ”
Fang Yujin said: "I know, after he killed Qi Huawei, he put the book back, and then pushed the chair into the desk, but because he was not careful enough or moved too hastily, it caused the chair to be a little crooked. ”
At this time, the two arrived in the main dining room, which was still as bright as day, but after the murder on the ship, the light here seemed a little deserted.
Fang Yujin and Chu Ji walked to the fruit dessert table in the restaurant, Chu Ji took out a stack of folded paper from his pocket and said, "According to the instructions on the list, there are a total of 12 fruit knives here." ”
Fang Yujin asked: "What's the point of knowing that the murderer got the murder weapon here?" ”
Chu Ji said: "Maybe it's really meaningless, but I'm such a troublesome character, maybe there are really clues here, look for it!" ”
Fang Yujin walked to the left side of the table and saw a half-cut lemon lying quietly on the white porcelain plate, the lemon was bright in color, the flesh was crystal clear, and when he approached, he could smell a faint sweet and sour smell. Fang Yujin remembered that there was a fruit knife next to this lemon last night, but now it was gone, Fang Yujin immediately said, "Chu Ji, here!" ”
Chu Ji came over and said, "Hey, isn't this a place to make tea?" Why are there lemons here? ”
Fang Yujin said: "It seems that black tea needs to be tasted with lemons, and there was originally a knife here that was specially used to cut lemons." ”
Chu Ji smiled bitterly and said, "I, a countryman, don't know much about the elegant hobbies of city people, thank you, Fang Yujin." ”
Fang Yujin asked rhetorically: "I don't need to thank you for this kind of trivial matter, but I want to hear your opinion, Chu Ji, all of us had dinner in this main dining room last night, everyone knows that there is a knife on this table, what is the point of knowing that the fruit knife that was taken away is the one?" ”
Chu Ji said, "Cup." ”
Fang Yujin was stunned for a moment and said, "Huh? What does this have to do with the cup? ”
Chu Ji said: "I have heard that a truly clever detective can know a lot of information through the placement of the cup, and with the habitual hand of the person with this cup, he can push his height from the length of his arm, and even come up with some of his living habits. ”
Chu Ji pointed to the door on the east side of the restaurant and said, "Fang Yujin, of course I'm not that powerful, but I won't let myself get nothing, between two points, the straight line is the closest, even people who haven't studied mathematics understand this truth." ”
Fang Yujin immediately turned around, glanced at the east door in surprise, and said, "You mean, the murderer came in from the east gate?" ”
Chu Ji said: "This knife is the closest to the east gate, and the murderer should not be like a woman shopping, picking left and right in the selection of the murder weapon, grinding for a long time, he is undoubtedly going to take the knife closest to him." ”
Fang Yujin walked to the east gate, held the aluminum alloy doorknob to pull the door open, glanced at the corridor outside the door, and asked, "What if you know that the murderer came in from the east gate?" ”
Chu Ji picked up the lemon and put it to his eyes to observe, and asked, "After dinner last night, which door did the captain take us away from?" ”
Fang Yujin said: "I remember that it was the South Gate, what happened?" ”
Chu Ji put down the lemon and said: "From our suite to the main dining room, if you take the nearest route, you must pass through the south gate, Qi Huawei's death is early in the morning, it is likely that it will be between seven and nine o'clock, if I am the murderer, I will come to the restaurant directly to get the murder weapon after I get up, and I will not waste time going around left and right." ”
Fang Yujin said: "I don't dare to agree too much with this, the murderer may want to hide people's eyes and ears, and he doesn't want to meet other people." ”
Suddenly, the captain's voice came from the radio above the two of them: "Hello everyone, I am the beloved eternal dictator of the Destino, your handsome and lovely captain!" It's ten o'clock now, Mushroom Knight, good boy, you should hurry to bed, or you'll be physically punished tomorrow!" ”
Chu Ji exhaled and said, "Let's go back and sleep first, Fang Yujin, everyone will definitely sit together tomorrow and discuss." ”
Together, the two pushed open the south door and returned to their suite.
Fang Yujin passed the fingerprint detection and pulled the doorknob to enter the door, Chu Ji suddenly stopped him and said, "Fang Yujin, by the way, I would like to remind you, any of my speculations today may be wrong, I hope you can think independently." ”
Fang Yujin nodded, and then said to Chu Ji, "Good night." ”
The next morning, everyone gathered in the main dining room for breakfast, and this day's breakfast was a smoked salmon burger with lemon juice, and just as everyone was picking up the burger and preparing to eat, the captain suddenly tapped the glass with a spoon and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have a few words to say." ”
Wei Lun put the burger down and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
The captain raised his glass and said with an unprecedentedly serious expression: "Today's first glass is to those friends who have passed away, the heroes who sacrificed their lives for freedom, without him, we would not have the happy life we have today, although he has died, but his courage and heroic soul have always lingered around us, I hope you will not forget when enjoying the fruits of the victory of the revolution......
Chu Ji suddenly said: "Everyone hurry up and eat, after eating, we will discuss the case." ”
After eating breakfast, Chu Ji said: "From now on, everyone's breakfast, lunch and dinner will be carried out in this restaurant. ”
Zhao Dian sneered and said, "Heh, listening to Your Excellency's tone, it seems that you really take yourself as the leader?" Why should we listen to you? Who do you think you are? ”
Chu Ji shook his head and said: "I didn't mean that, yesterday was because we were too casual, so we missed the opportunity to learn about Qi Huawei's death in advance, if we eat together at noon, we will definitely find some clues." ”
Han Lei nodded and said: "I also agree with Chu Ji's opinion, the dinner party in the future must be mandatory, this is a team against a single game, we must be united." ”
Many people also agreed with Chu Ji's idea, and Zhao Dian snorted and stopped talking.
Chu Ji continued: "I think our process should be like this, each of us first tells the experience of yesterday's day, and then everyone discusses the case together, expresses their own opinions, and finally finds out the real culprit together." ”
Everyone also felt that Chu Ji's arrangement was thorough and proper, so everyone except Zhao Dian immediately agreed.
Zhao Dian suddenly said: "Chu Ji, since you put forward this opinion, you should be the first to say it." ”
Chu Ji nodded and said: "No problem, then let's start with me first, and then it will be Han Lei's turn on my left, in clockwise order, everyone will tell what happened yesterday, the murderer will definitely lie, and there will definitely be debatable doubts when everyone's experience is pieced together." ”
Chu Ji took out a tape recorder and put it in the center of the dining table to start recording, and said, "After I left the room yesterday, I went directly to the entertainment room, and after about half an hour, Fang Yujin also entered the entertainment room, and we played together." ”
Zhao Dian sighed and said, "Even if you hide in the entertainment room, Fang Yujin will not travel thousands of miles to find you for a tryst." It's really touching love. ”
Chu Ji said in a flat tone: "Then Wu Yanyu entered the entertainment room and notified the two of us to join her party. After Fang Yu and I played until the afternoon, we went directly to the barbecue restaurant, and I finished speaking. ”
Han Lei stretched his waist and said: "I happened to see Wu Yanyu in the skating rink in the morning, and the two of us played together, and then Wu Yanyu put forward an idea, she saw that there was a barbecue restaurant in the boat yesterday, so she decided to hold a barbecue party for everyone to participate in, and I will also help her." ”
Many people thought suspiciously: "It was Wu Yanyu who decided to hold a party, but this fat man also came out to help, what happened?" Race time is precious. ”
Han Lei continued: "The two of us immediately left the skating rink, I went to the deck, and saw Duanmu Qi playing basketball alone in the basketball court, and then found Zhao Dian watching a movie in the screening room, and finally ......"
Chu Ji suddenly interrupted Han Lei's narration and asked, "Movie?" What is being sown? ”
Zhao Dian smiled and said, "You also have to take care of such trivial things?" Do you want to ask me what kind of fruit I ate last night? ”
Chu Ji shook his head and said, "This game will determine who will replace Jingyan City in the league this year, how can careless behavior be tolerated?" What's more, there are a lot of doubts in this case, and I think it's not a bad thing to be careful and learn more about the situation. ”
Duan Muqin suddenly said: "I think what he said makes sense, Zhao Dian, say the name of the movie." ”
Zhao Dian waved his hand and said, "Damn, whatever you want, I'm watching "Prosecution Witness". ”
Wei Lun said with a smile: "I have also watched it, it is a suspense film of the old age." ”
Zhao Dian shook his head and said: "That screening hall is only beautifully decorated, and the movies in it are all old-fashioned. ”
Captain: "Blame me?" ”
Chu Ji turned his head to look at Han Lei and asked, "I'm not asking about this, Han Lei, what is the plot in the movie?" ”
Han Lei fell into deep thought and said: "This is a little difficult, I want to watch it, it is a black and white film, a group of people are chatting in English that I don't understand, and I can't remember the rest." Wait a minute! A white man with a fat chin is shaking with the reflection of a single spectacle that makes people want to hit him when they see it! But what's the point? ”
Fang Yujin thought: "Of course it makes sense, knowing the plot at that time, you can use this reverse to push out the approximate time when Zhao Dian entered the screening hall." ”
Chu Ji nodded and said, "It's okay, you can continue to talk about your experience that day." ”
Han Lei said: "Later, I also found Wei Lun in the rock climbing field and explained to him that there would be a party today. ”
Chu Ji asked: "You met these people that day, and there is no one else?" ”
Han Lei nodded and said, "There is another one, when I went to the ice rink, I saw Fang Yujin sneaking out of the main restaurant. ”
