So where is Xie Yunmeng located? First of all, as we mentioned before, the front wall of the west house is sloping, and if you look east from the west edge of the whole house, you can't see the east side of the house at all.

Although the East House and the West House are two separate houses, they are next to each other, and from a distance, they look like a whole, that is, the distance between the east wall of the West House and the west wall of the East House is very close, and they are the same size and height, and there is no deviation between the front and back.

If we stand in the southeast corner of the house and look west, we can only see 1/3 of the west of the house, which is half of the gate, and the whole wall of the gate to the west is not visible, because the west wall of the house is extremely backward.

If we stand in the southwest corner of the house and look east, the whole east house will disappear from view, also because the west wall is leaning back, and the front wall leaning forward blocks our view, so that we cannot see anything on the other side of the wall. This also proves that the walls on the front of the East House are tilted at a very small angle, or not at all.

Next, let's look at the location of the lavender field, which is located in the southeast direction of the whole house, and from the overall view, its inclination angle is exactly complementary to the front of the west house, and the small island in the center of the flower field leads to the west inghouse gate of the lavender villa in a semi-arc. In this way, whether you are standing in the middle of the path or at the end of the flower field, the viewer will feel that the front of the villa is flush, and the angle of inclination will not be noticeable at all.

Now let's get back to the point, Xie Yunmeng is hanging on the westernmost wall of the villa at the moment, there are a total of four windows here, and the two windows on the first floor are relatively forward, belonging to the kitchen and the stairwell.

The room corresponding to the other windows, let's wait a minute, now let's talk about the location of the space that Xie Yunmeng wants to enter in front of him, in fact, if Mr. Criminal Police goes out from the kitchen window, although he can easily climb from the downspout to the second floor, the actual benefits are much smaller than the current way of action. Because if you want to peek into each room alternately from the walls on the second floor, you have to make a large circle around the entire back half of the Westinghouse, which is time-consuming and laborious.

The smoke exhaust pipe above the range hood goes out, it is completely different, the location of the gas stove is on the inside of the south wall of the kitchen, and the gap of the smoke exhaust pipe is above the same position, which is also facing the south side. As I said before, Xie Yunmeng had carefully observed the structure of the outer part of the house before entering the Westinghouse in the middle of the night, and he found that there was a small skylight on the wall of the house, and the location of the skylight was under the eaves, at the top of the southeast wall, near the southwest corner of the house.

The outer pipe of the range hood is divided into two sections, one section is connected to the inside of the house through the hole in the wall, and the other is connected to the chimney on the roof of the house.

To be sure, the space inside the skylight is the hollow above the triangular roof beams, and it is very hidden from the movement in this place, which is unlikely to be discovered. Want to know what everyone is doing in the room without even noticing? It's safer and more convenient to hide here than it is to hide outside any window.

Put your hands on the edge of the skylight, and it is not difficult to enter it, Xie Yunmeng observed the surroundings for a while, and the person quickly got in. As soon as his hands touched the thick beams, he began to search for the correct position in every room on the second floor. The beams are close to the floor of the roof, and the bottom plate is made of long wooden planks with wooden bolts and nails in the middle, and the dusty surface can be easily touched by reaching out from the beam.

Xie Yunmeng recalled the appearance of the interior of the house, in order to determine which area he had explored, from the stairs to the corridor on the second floor, he needed to turn around a platform, and the width of this platform was probably enough for two people to walk side by side. Xie Yunmeng moved forward a little along the beam, and after freeing up about this distance, he used his hand to draw the width of the corridor on the second floor in the center of the roof, and then the rest of the part was all the roof of the guest room.

There are a total of six rooms on the second floor of the Westinghouse, three on the left and three on the left, two men and a woman live from front to back on the left, and the two rooms in front of the right live Wen Yuan and Canglulu, Xie Yunmeng's first target is the last room on the right, which, according to the hostess, is a warehouse used to store old things, and no one has been in it for several years.

At first, Mr. Criminal Police believed this, but now he was skeptical, because there were two rooms with lavender tidbits at the top of the door, one of which was a warehouse, which showed that at least someone had entered the warehouse before Xie Yunmeng's arrival.

After finding the correct location, Xie Yunmeng was ready to find a way to open a gap on the roof of the warehouse that could be peeped into, first of all, to see if there was any hidden person inside, among all the people here, there was actually a living room, which had not been made clear, it was the bombastic Mr. Yong Poppy.

Except for the warehouse, the occupants of the other five rooms in the West House are not him, and although there is an empty room in the East House, Fu Zhi is now assigned to Xie Yunmeng to live, so where does Yong Su live? It's still a mystery in Mr. Detective's mind.

However, this kind of thing will only be known as soon as he asks tomorrow morning, and Xie Yunmeng will not really take it seriously. Now he looked above the ceiling of the warehouse, where the wood was not intact, and insects had begun to grow in some places, and many of the surfaces of the wood were damaged by insect decay.

Xie Yunmeng thinks that it may be due to the large number of plants planted around, and there are many wooden structures in this villa, and in addition, the wood will decay faster than ordinary houses due to the perennial dampness. In the afternoon of the same day, Xie Yunmeng and Wen Yuan were in the East House, and he had already realized this. Because the damage on the wall of the living room, as well as the place where the wall mud has fallen off, it shows that there is a problem with the wood inside.

Although Mr. Criminal Police is not as good at analysis and reasoning as Yun Yeyao and Mo Haiyou, he is a good hand at observing on-the-spot scenes, which also benefits from the experience accumulated over many years of working as a criminal police officer to solve cases.

Xie Yunmeng lightly walked around the keel on the side of the main beam, he crouched down to the position he identified, first listened to the movement inside, he pressed his head very low, and his ears were almost attached to the plank. In the dark, he stood motionless for a moment, and was about to lift his upper body to destroy the wooden planks under his body, but suddenly a slight yawn came from inside the room, as if someone was stretching inside.

This sound was faint, Xie Yunmeng was not sure, but the appearance of another voice in the next second made Xie Yunmeng confirm that there must be someone inside, it was the sound of something touching the wooden box, accompanied by the fleeting sound of friction between the woods, which must have been caused by man, so Xie Yunmeng instantly gave up his plan to pry open the ceiling immediately. It cannot be detected, it can only improvise and wait for further action from those below.
