Chapter Ninety-Four: Details of the Case

At the end of the three-day event, time is still passing quietly, like a white horse passing by, and the National Day holiday is about to come to an end.

Soon after Hu Qianqiu fell into a coma after the explosion, the search and rescue team arrived by helicopter, and Hu Qianqiu and Yuan Liuli were also saved.

Although Hu Qianqiu was affected by the explosion, he was not seriously injured and came to his senses that evening, and after listening to his story, the police began to investigate the case.

Although the case is a bit complicated, and there are things that ordinary people don't know about, such as talismans, but fortunately, Hu Qianqiu thought of the rhetoric in advance, and Lu Xuan also wrote down his criminal process before committing suicide and handed it to Hu Qianqiu, so the police did not suspect that there was any supernatural power in this case, and after Hu Qianqiu was questioned after making a transcript in the first two days, the police did not look for him again.

On the last day of the National Day, Hu Qianqiu went to the hospital to visit Yuan Liuli.

Although the ghost-faced man's talisman saved Yuan Liuli's life, staying in the freezer for too long still caused a lot of damage to her body, so she has been in a coma since she broke away from the villa, and she only woke up yesterday, and Hu Qianqiu didn't talk to her much yesterday in order to let her recover from her injuries.

Yuan Liuli lay on the bed, tilting her head sideways to look at the slowly falling leaves outside the window, while Hu Qianqiu sat beside her, peeling apples for her.

Yuan Liuli turned his head to look at Hu Qianqiu, "It seems that you don't know everything, at least you can't peel apples." ”

Hu Qianqiu smiled awkwardly, and did not deny it, indeed, the apple skin he peeled was not only intermittent, but most of it was cut together with the pulp, so the whole apple was pitted, and there was really no beauty at all.

"After all, I'm not a god, if I can do anything, then what's the deal? Besides, don't you know that no one likes a man who is too perfect? ”

Listening to Hu Qianqiu's joke, even the frosty Yuan Liuli couldn't help but purse his lips and laugh at this time.

"Tell me about the case, I only heard you say yesterday that Lu Xuan is the real murderer behind the scenes, and I don't know many details."

Hu Qianqiu nodded and started from the beginning.

"Although Lu Xuan is the real murderer in this case, in fact, the ghost-faced person is the mastermind behind the scenes. Although pulling the two of us into the so-called activities has the effect of increasing the number of people and reducing Lu Xuan's suspicion, I think it is more because

Ghostface wants to see what I'll do when I encounter these things. ”

"Huh." Hu Qianqiu smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect me to be defeated, and in the end, I realized who was the real murderer, and no one was saved." ”

"I can't blame you for this, after all, you're not a professional detective, and you did your best."

"Yes, I tried my best, but I only tried my best, and I was so incompetent."

During the case, Hu Qianqiu never showed too many emotional fluctuations about other people's deaths, but Yuan Liuli actually understood in his heart that Hu Qianqiu was not indifferent to life and death, but the situation at that time required him to maintain absolute rationality, and Hu Qianqiu in that state was indeed like an emotionless machine, and now that the case has been resolved, his heart is still more or less lost.

Although Hu Qianqiu is often rational as if he has no emotion, he is also easily emotionally lost, and he is no longer surprised by his own contradictions.

Yuan Liuli was about to comfort Hu Qianqiu for a few words, but he didn't expect him to be the first to speak, "Don't talk about this, let's talk about the case." After speaking, he smiled at Yuan Liuli, without the sadness of loss just now.

Yuan Liuli sighed helplessly and nodded silently.

"In fact, when we walked on the suspension bridge, we had already fallen into the psychological trap set for us by the ghost-faced man. Originally, I thought that the murderer calculated our step distance based on our height, so as to set a trap for Lu Xuan, who was the shortest and had to step on every plank, so that the person who rescued her could naturally win the favor of everyone, and it was not so easy to become the object of suspicion. ”

"That's true."

"But I neglected at the time that if one of us had stepped on the first plank first, we would have stepped on the treated plank even if we were two planks away from each step. So in order to avoid such a situation, the best thing to do is for the murderer to step on that plank himself.

So although Lu Xuan was not the first to walk on the suspension bridge, she had also observed the foothold of everyone before her before she went up, so that even if someone might step on that plank, she just had to rush over from behind, after all, the image she showed us at that time was that of a rude and willful female college student.

And when she walks onto the suspension bridge, she just needs to control her speed and make sure that there is someone not far behind her, and

Even if no one can hold her in time, she will be able to catch the rest of the drawbridge before falling off the cliff if she is mentally prepared. ”

Hu Qianqiu tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Although it is said that the person who saves people is not easy to be suspected, the victim itself is even less likely to be the object of suspicion, so even if I have not stopped doubting Lu Xuan, I subconsciously feel that she is the least suspicious, which is really a mistake." ”

"The case after that turned out to be basically the same as I had originally predicted. The killing of Lin Lao did use the method I originally envisioned, as for Gao Mingyi, Lu Xuan called him out that night, and then strangled him while he was not paying attention, and then hung his body on the chandelier with the help of a pulley and other devices. It's just that this matter seems to have been discovered by Yuan Jing, so Yuan Jing took the initiative to talk to her, hoping to persuade her to turn herself in, but she didn't expect ......"

Hu Qianqiu sighed, and told Yuan Jing about disguising the crime scene as a secret room in order to eliminate Lu Xuan's suspicion, and Yuan Liuli was also quite touched after hearing it.

"The next day, we found Gao Mingyi hanging from the chandelier, and his body disappeared, which is also a psychological trap for the ghost-faced man, in order to make me suspect that Gao Mingyi is not actually dead. At that time, Lu Xuan was on the third floor, and when we entered Gao Mingyi's room, she hooked the chandelier with a tool, and after cutting the rope around Gao Mingyi's neck, she used a tool similar to a slide to put the body on the third floor and hide it in her room. ”

"But these are written by Lu Xuan in her confession, and they may not be completely true, I guess she probably used things like talismans, just to avoid suspicion from the police. Otherwise, it would be difficult to hide the body in such a short period of time without making a single movement to make us suspicious. ”

Yuan Liuli nodded, "There is indeed such a possibility." ”

"Hmm. And in Huang Tianhai's case later, I originally thought that the murderer was to kill the rest of the people, so he put a corpse chasing charm on Huang Tianhai's body to lure us away, but in fact, it was because Lu Xuan wanted to go back to dispose of Gao Mingyi's body and transfer it to the freezer, after all, on the third day, she had to pretend that she was killed by the murderer, and if Gao Mingyi's body appeared in her room, it would be too much to say. ”

"I see."

So far, Yuan Liuli has a comprehensive understanding of this case, as for the body after she fell asleep, she had already heard Hu Qianqiu say it yesterday.
