12. Marionettes
Yuan Jing threw the heavy big bag to the ground, Wei Renwu didn't open it, he hated the bag was too dirty, he knew that Yuan Jing must have checked what was in the pocket, so he asked Yuan Jing: "What's in it?" ”
Yuan Jing pointed to his pocket and replied with a pout: "There is a fruit knife, as well as some ropes and wooden planks, all of which are tools that the 'confessors' would have used, I don't know what the point of finding them is?" ”
"Can you take the knife out and show me?" Wei Renwu kicked his pocket with his foot, as if he was using his feet instead of his hands to feel the contents of his pocket.
"Why don't you take it yourself?" Yuan Jing was very puzzled, Wei Renwu obviously had his own hands, but he was unwilling to move.
"Letting you take out the murder weapon is also part of your learning, I remember you always saying that you want to learn from me." Of course, this is just Wei Renwu's words to fool Yuan Jing, his true meaning is nothing more than disgust that his pockets are too dirty.
However, Wei Renwu's words made Yuan Jing unable to refuse, Yuan Jing could only open his pocket, take out an extremely sharp, ten-centimeter-long fruit knife from it and hand it to Wei Renwu.
Fortunately, the fruit knife was hidden in his pocket and was not contaminated by the sludge, so Wei Renwu was able to hold the fruit knife.
Wei Renwu carefully examined the fruit knife, and heard Yuan Jing chanting in his ears: "Can this help me find the murderer?" ”
"Whatever the murderer left behind, it may leave us with a message, and we should have made good use of it." Wei Renwu tried the blade with his fingers, "It's a very sharp fruit knife, and it's very clean, because the crime scene is in a bathhouse, it's more convenient to clean." ”
"Did you find anything on this knife? None of what you say seems to be helpful to the case. Yuan Jing was puzzled.
Wei Renwu showed the handle of the knife to Yuan Jing: "There is a pattern of two standing together on the hilt, and the words 'ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS' are also written, do you know what this means?" ”
Yuan Jing shook his head: "It should be the brand of this knife, but I don't know this brand." ”
Wei Renwu laughed: "It seems that you don't like to use knives very much, in the knives, this brand is still very famous, this is the German 'Zwilling people' knife, this is the message left by the murderer." ”
"What does this mean?" Yuan Jing spread out his hands, looking dazed, not understanding what Wei Renwu wanted to express at all.
Wei Renwu pursed his lips: "This can mean that this knife is very expensive, at least compared to ordinary fruit knives, it is very expensive." ”
"Expensive?" Of course, this was not the answer Yuan Jing wanted, and he didn't even touch the edge, as if Wei Renwu was deliberately diverting those things that were close to the truth of the case.
In fact, Yuan Jing misunderstood Wei Renwu, this is what Wei Renwu really wanted to express, but Wei Renwu didn't think that he could explain it to Yuan Jing now, in his heart, this murder case still lacked some parts, and only by piecing together the parts completely, Wei Renwu could completely explain to Yuan Jing.
However, in the investigation of two places in a row, Wei Renwu did not show Yuan Jing the ability that matched Yuan Jing's mind, which made Yuan Jing begin to wonder if Wei Renwu was really that powerful, and when they first met, Wei Renwu's reasoning ability was nothing more than innocuous cleverness.
Wei Renwu returned the knife to Yuan Jing and instructed: "Put these things away, they will come in handy later, and it is possible that this is the decisive evidence." ”
"If that's the case, then I'm thankful." Yuan Jing used cynicism to declare his dissatisfaction.
Of course, Wei Renwu could hear Yuan Jing's dissatisfaction, but Wei Renwu was not the kind of character who went against the grain, he immediately scolded: "If you are not satisfied, get out of here, Lao Tzu doesn't want to resist the pressure on the one hand to solve the case, and on the other hand, you have to take care of your fragile emotions." ”
Wei Renwu's sudden change caught Yuan Jing off guard, although he was venting his dissatisfaction, but he still used a very tactful way, he didn't expect that he would completely annoy Wei Renwu, and Wei Renwu really turned his face faster than turning a book, he really couldn't adapt to Wei Renwu for a while.
Annoying Wei Renwu was not the result Yuan Jing wanted, so he would still explain: "No, Wei Renwu, I didn't mean that, don't be angry first......
"I don't need your explanation." Wei Renwu pointed at Yuan Jing's nose, "If you want to learn from me, you must trust me wholeheartedly, and you can't have a little doubt, I can see from your expression now that you haven't trusted me at all, if it goes on like this, I can only declare that our cooperation ends here." ”
"I'm sorry." Yuan Jing lowered his head, "I shouldn't have any doubts just now, I won't do it again in the future, I will trust you absolutely, I promise." ”
Wei Renwu is really good at mobilizing people's hearts, when Yuan Jing is interested, he will say some nice things to amplify Yuan Jing's interest, and this is how Wei Renwu and Yuan Jing can achieve such a cooperation, and when Yuan Jing has doubts, he can put some cruel words to suppress all Yuan Jing's doubts.
Yuan Jing was like a marionette that was manipulated by Wei Renwu by some threads that could not be seen with his eyes.
After Yuan Jing apologized, Wei Renwu almost laughed, it seemed that his goal had been achieved, and Yuan Jing had already listened to Wei Renwu's words with all his heart.
Wei Renwu put away his feigned anger: "Okay, I forgive you, now I want you to put away these evidence, and let's split up again." ”
"What do you want me to do?" Yuan Jing was waiting for Wei Renwu's order.
"I need you to get the forensic report." Wei Renwu stroked his stubble.
"What are you doing with that?" Yuan Jing began to have doubts again.
"The three deceased had no signs of struggle before they died, or before they were tied, and even if the murderer was an acquaintance, and even if he was defenseless, it was impossible for the murderer to subdue the deceased when he was unable to struggle, so I suspect that the murderer used some special means." Although Yuan Jing had some doubts, Wei Renwu did not get angry this time, but patiently explained to Yuan Jing.
"What kind of methods do you think the murderer used?" Wei Renwu's words are always unbroken, so Yuan Jing can only ask this one more.
"I suspect ......," Wei Renwu paused, "the murderer used drugs that can make people unconscious. ”
Yuan Jing had an epiphany, and he nodded: "I understand, I'll immediately go to the forensic doctor to see the report." ”
Yuan Jing was a resolute person, and when he got the order, he immediately picked up the bag of crime tools left by the murderer and was about to leave the school, and even forgot to ask Wei Renwu where to meet Wei Renwu after he got the forensic report.
However, Wei Renwu did not forget, so Wei Renwu told Yuan Jing before Yuan Jing left: "After the matter is completed, come to my school's dormitory to find me, if I don't come back, just wait for me." ”
Yuan Jingjing nodded, and left Shenyang University of Technology in an instant, and he forgot to ask Wei Renwu what he would do alone.
Of course, even if Yuan Jing would ask, Wei Renwu would not necessarily answer, Wei Renwu would only tell Yuan Jing something that he needed to know, so if Yuan Jing asked or not, it would not matter much.
And after Wei Renwu left Yuan Jing, his real plan was to meet the last person he wanted to meet.
The last person Wei Renwu wanted to see, and the last person related to the murder, was Wang Yuan, the cousin of the third deceased, Xu Donghai.
Wang Yuan is an out-and-out gambler, he will be listed by the police as the murderer of Xu Donghai, precisely because he owes Xu Donghai 300,000, and the reason why he owes Xu Donghai 300,000 is precisely because he is a good gambler, gambling until he is in debt and alone.
A gambler like this, Wei Renwu couldn't find it at all, because a bad gambler, except for eating and sleeping, all his time would be spent on the gambling table.
After all, gambling is an illegal activity, so many casinos go underground and are controlled by a gang of criminals.
In the land of Shenyang, there must not be too many such illegal underground casinos, which can be counted on one hand, but Wei Renwu just happened to know the location of these casinos, and he knew better where the nearest underground casino was to Wang Yuan's house.
Wei Renwu walked into a bar called "Night Charm", and it was still afternoon, and the waiters in the bar were still cleaning up before the official opening of the evening.
But none of the bartenders stopped their work because Wei Renwu, a guest who didn't come to the bar during business hours, as if Wei Renwu should have come at this time.
However, a guest is always a guest, and when a guest arrives, someone has to greet him, so the bar manager at the bar comes forward: "Does this guest need any help?" ”
Wei Renwu took out a cigarette, lit it, and smiled: "I'll order a boxed lunch." ”
The bar owner returned Wei Renwu with a smile: "Guest, we are a bar here, and we don't sell boxed lunches." ”
"Since I don't sell boxed lunches, then I want to have a large plate of Xinjiang chicken." Wei Renwu's answer was simply a bull's head and a horse's mouth.
In other bars, the bar owner would definitely think that Wei Renwu was a madman, or he came to find fault, but this bar owner didn't think so, he laughed instead: "It's a regular customer, please come with me." ”
It turned out that Wei Renwu was not talking nonsense, every word he said was in the rules, the rules of an underground casino hidden under the bar, and the conversation between Wei Renwu and the bar owner was exactly the code.
The bar owner led Wei Renwu into his office, where there was a blue and white porcelain vase in the corner.
The bar owner twisted the vase, and a secret passage opened in the south-facing wall of the office.
The bar owner did not take Wei Renwu into the secret passage, but let Wei Renwu enter by himself, and after Wei Renwu entered, closed the secret door of the secret passage.
After Wei Renwu passed through the dark passage, the lights were suddenly bright, smoky, and lively, and a real casino appeared in front of him.
