Volume IV Polar Day 6
"It can't be, Eve... I passed away, and we went up the mountain to see the scene today. Xiao Yihan was also very shocked and looked at his roommate, he did see Eve's corpse, so Liu Shishi was lying?
I scratched my head: "Are you mistaken?" If you don't turn on the lights at night, these girls are quite slender, maybe you are wrong. "Xiao Yihan and Liu Shishi are in the same room, so is the girl left... Is it Xia Jing?
This ridiculous but highly likely idea instantly filled my mind, if it was Xia Jing, then she did have a reason to go up the mountain with us today, and as Eve's roommate, she had this motive for committing the crime, and now that I think about it, she seems to be very familiar with that road when she went up the mountain...
Is she really a prisoner? But if she is really a prisoner, then what she did today is completely unreasonable, if she is really a murderer, as long as she pushes it today, then Xiao Yihan and I will die in the mountains, this pouring rain, there will be no evidence left at all, even if it is said that it is because of the rainy road slipping and falling at the foot of the mountain to die, it will not arouse anyone's suspicion.
At this time, I didn't think that my subconscious was clearing Xia Jing's name.
The first to break the silence was Liu Xuan, who looked nonchalant: "Could it be that you are mistaken, the boys here are actually quite thin, maybe the gender is also wrong." His thinking was indeed very lively, and he suddenly broadened everyone's thinking: "Or, someone is leaning on this corpse to make trouble, maybe it's not true." “
Liu Xuan's words were amazing, making everyone look at him in surprise, this is indeed a way of thinking, it is possible for the murderer or accomplice to continue to commit crimes through this incident, he was a little embarrassed to see it: "I'm just talking casually, you should add some new ideas when you investigate the case." “
Liu Shishi shook her head, a little embarrassed: "When you say this, I'm not sure if what I saw was Eve, after all, I was scared yesterday, maybe I imagined that shadow as Eve, but that shadow must be a woman's shadow." ”
Looking at her resolute statement, people have to believe that a woman may indeed have entered their room yesterday and stole Xiao Yihan's notebook.
"Why don't we go and take a look, maybe we have left some clues." Or Xiao Yihan made a suggestion, indeed, not to mention what can be found, a group of people gathered around our door, which may alarm the murderer, since "he" has the action to prevent us from investigating the case, it is possible to continue to commit crimes, so we must stop him.
After arriving at the room, Xiao Yihan was nothing, but Liu Shishi was a little embarrassed, after all, it was a girl's room, and it was normal for two boys to come in, and it was normal to be embarrassed, but it was not clear to me that someone entered the room at night, and it was nothing.
"It doesn't seem to have left any flaws, since that person can kill Eve so easily, will there be no clues left at all." Liu Xuan looked carefully at the table in the room of the two people, and it seemed that he really didn't leave any clues.
I shook my head: "Impossible, there is no such thing as a perfect crime, as long as he is still human, it is impossible not to leave any evidence." "This is what Brother Lin taught me, but he forgot where he saw it, and later I found out from the Internet that it was the famous criminal investigation master Edmond. Lokad's principle of material exchange proposed by Lokad.
Then a few people looked at me in horror, yes, if it wasn't human, then there would be no evidence left, then Liu Shishi said that she saw Eve last night, maybe it's true.
"Don't think about it, investigate first, maybe it's just yourself scaring yourself." It's Xiao Yihan again, every time everyone's emotions are shaken, Xiao Yihan will stand up to help everyone stabilize their emotions and put forward effective suggestions, which makes me feel more and more that this woman is definitely not simple, and it was also the right choice to cooperate with her to investigate the case at the beginning.
Clues that are invisible to the naked eye may be easily seen by other methods... As I thought so, I was inspired by the sound of rain outside the window: "First of all, there are two kinds of people who may have entered the room, one we know and the other is a villager. I saw that a few people looked at me very seriously, and scratched their heads in embarrassment.
"If it is a villager, it must have left water stains before entering the hotel, and the heavy rain last night will leave clues no matter what, if there are no water stains, it can be explained from the side, whether we recognize this person or not, he must be a guest in the hotel, or a staff member."
After listening to my reasoning, several people fell into thought, Liu Shishi looked at me: "The staff, there are only two people in the boss and the waiter, the boss's figure can be ruled out, the waiter went home after work yesterday, and there seem to be no new guests except us recently, does that mean that this murderer is between us?" ”
It's true, speaking of water stains, I remembered that when I put on my shoes this morning, my shoes were wet, but I just saw that the window of the room was not closed, maybe there was rain blown in by the wind last night, and the shoes were wet, so it seems that I was indeed scaring myself, I laughed at myself a little self-deprecatingly, so suspicious, it is indeed not what a detective character should be.
If that's the case, then the only people who haven't investigated it seem to be the only ones left, as well as Xia Jing and Murong Chen, we can thoroughly investigate it today, and we can study the dagger at night to see if we can extract fingerprints and sweat stains.
"Not good!" I suddenly thought of something, and quickly ran back to the room, and when I arrived, it was too late, the unwashed wet clothes had been opened, and the box inside was gone: "Damn, I was too careless." ”
When the rest of the people caught up, only Xiao Yihan had a solemn expression, and the remaining two people looked at me with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong?" “
Now, there is nothing to hide, after all, the most important physical evidence has been taken, when I left the room just now, I remember that I closed the door, but now the door of the room is open: "The dagger was lost?" “
"What dagger?" Liu Xuan was puzzled at first, and then suddenly realized: "You guys went up the mountain today for this?" No wonder it's so messy. “
But I didn't pay attention to him, only four people knew about going up the mountain today, and only three people knew what we were going to do, I, Xia Jing, and Xiao Yihan, when I came back, I was sure that no one saw what I was holding in my hand, but I don't know if anyone saw it secretly.
All the suspicions point to the mysterious girl, Xia Jing...
Could it really be her?
