Chapter 11: The Detective of this World
"Zhang is not Zhang......"
"Zhang is not Zhang!!"
Zhou Yan stood up and paced back and forth in the cell, repeating this sentence on his lips.
In the world before he was reborn, there was a very famous comic called "Detective Conan", and every time the protagonist of the comic found any important clues, there was always a cold light that pierced his head at an angle of 45 degrees obliquely above the protagonist's head.
All along, Zhou Yan felt that this kind of picture was too exaggerated.
But just now, he was able to experience the feeling of a flash of inspiration and enlightenment, as if there was really a cold ray passing through his head.
For a moment, he seemed to have strung together a lot of things.
First of all, why did I get beaten in the middle of the night!
If it is really a usury, then if you have just met the debtor, shouldn't you confirm whether he can repay the money? Even if you want to catch it and clean it up, you can't come up and ignore it, let's get a stick first. If people have money to pay back, won't your stick be a bad thing?
Therefore, there is a high possibility that the reason why these people knocked themselves out is not to collect debts, but to have other purposes.
Also, why do you want to lock yourself up with Zhang.
Although it is also reasonable to be locked together, after all, a place like a warehouse is used to clean up a few people who have not paid their debts, which is very suitable.
But it's pitch black, there's no exit, there's just a door, and this environment is simply prepared to create a 'secret room'.
By the way, there is also the assumption that the previous one called [Kiyohisawa] said...... [the door lock is fake].
At the beginning, he rejected this idea, because if Zhang did not lock the door, then the warehouse would not form a secret room.
But what if Zhang is not Zhang.
That's right, as long as Zhang is not Zhang, then all these problems will be solved, and the secret room will no longer be a secret room!
The more Zhou Yan thought about it, the clearer his thinking became, and he even felt that as long as he held this book, it was like a large number of detectives lying next to his ears to help him solve the case.
As for why these words appear in the book...... Don't worry about it for now, your own life is the most important, as long as you solve the puzzle of the warehouse, there is hope for survival.
So Zhou Yan hurriedly sat back on the bed and continued to read the book.
There are still many questions that have not been solved, why the murder weapon is an iron hammer, and why the dust in front of the door is thicker.
And most importantly, ...... Evidence!
You must find evidence to clear your suspicion!
With so many questions, it sounds like a fantasy to solve them all in such a short time, but the book in his hand gave Zhou Yan endless confidence.
......
During the period when Zhou Yan racked his brains for his life, Lawyer Zou was not idle.
Adhering to the work philosophy of doing his best for the rights and interests of his clients, Mr. Zou can be said to have used all the channels he has been practicing for more than 20 years.
Finally, the next day, a summons letter from the police station was sent to Chen Hao's desk.
Chen Hao, male, 31 years old. Class: Detective [Marple Level]. It belongs to the Lin Detective Group.
As I said before, detectives in the world before Zhou Yan's rebirth were a typical third-rate profession, and even if you classify him as an unemployed vagrant, after all, when there is no commission, these so-called detectives spend most of their time drinking, buying lottery tickets, complaining about life, and what's more, in order to make a living, they have to mix up a little money on the edge of breaking the law and discipline.
But in this world, detective is a pretty good career.
Because the detectives of this world and the police system complement each other. It can be roughly understood as: the detective is responsible for handling the case and finding the murderer; The police, on the other hand, are more responsible for catching murderers, chasing murderers, and shooting outlaws with guns, which is a kind of manual work.
One culture, one martial arts, cooperate with each other to ensure the peace of the world.
But having said that, in fact, in the concept of people in this world, the status of detectives is much higher than that of police. After all, the image of those personables who crush criminals with wisdom is much rarer than policemen with guns, five big and three thick, and full of meat.
Of course, the 'high-end than the police' here is only limited to those [detectives].
The social status of these detectives is very high, because if there is a major case in a certain city that the local detectives can't solve, then they have to travel thousands of miles to invite those detectives to come to help, and it feels like they have encountered some major illness and have to invite some medical bigwigs to come to the main operation.
As for Chen Hao, although he is still far from the title of [Detective], he is also a good mix, after all, in his early 30s, he can reach the [Marple] level, which is something that many young detectives can't achieve after struggling for half a lifetime.
......
At this moment, Chen Hao was holding the summons letter in his hand, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Zhou Yan?"
He looked at the name on the letter, looking a little uncomfortable.
"It was a murder six months ago in a warehouse in the Old Town...... a voice said.
Chen Hao raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
There was a woman standing there.
In fact, it is said that it is a woman, but this woman really looks much younger than her actual age. If it weren't for the fact that she deliberately wore blue-black overalls and always had an ascetic face, you would have believed her if she was still a college student.
But the whole detective group knows that this woman is about to turn 30.
Linxi ......
Cold-hearted, doesn't like to talk, has an unstable temper, and in the decade from the age of 12 to 22, she has been addicted to free fighting and land fighting, and her lethality is huge. Every year, there are new young people who try to show a little ambiguity in front of this eldest lady, but fortunately, there are some 'people who have come over' to stop it in time, which avoids one tragedy after another.
Chen Hao's eyes swept over the other party's slender and powerful waist: "I remember that case." He said.
"You must remember, I said at the time, there are too many doubts in that case, I don't understand why you insist on closing the case."
Chen Hao smiled and covered the discomfort in his expression with confidence: "According to the process, the case should be closed." After all, the evidence is sufficient, besides, didn't you admit it at the time, it was a secret room, except for the one surnamed Zhou, no one else could kill anyone. ”
"......" Lin Xi frowned slightly: "But this letter ......"
"Don't worry, it may just be some small details that we need to deal with afterwards." Chen Hao is still full of confidence: "My reasoning will not be wrong, and I remember that the sentence will be executed in two days, the surname Zhou is an orphan and has no friends, can he still retract his confession by himself in prison?" ”
When Lin Xi heard Chen Hao's words, he suppressed a cold tone: "The detective's weapon is evidence and facts, and we are responsible for every reasoning we make!" Instead of counting on whether a person in prison can retract his confession! ”
"That's it!" Chen Hao's tone was a little tougher: "No matter what, I'm your boss, you should pay more or less attention to your tone...... I've said it all, and I can't go wrong with my reasoning. ”
Lin Xi looked at Chen Hao, his beautiful eyes were a little more slender than usual......
"I'll go and prepare the materials needed for the case, and I'll go to the police station early tomorrow morning." With that, she walked out of the office.
Chen Hao looked at Lin Xi's back and clicked his lips.
"It's a pity to be a detective with this figure......"
