We hugged quietly for a long time, her arms crossed all the time, as if she didn't dare to put it on top of me.

I finally let go and said, "Then let it be." I'm sure you'll get better one day. But I don't force it, I just want to give each other a little bit of confidence, right? ”

"Well, it's okay."

She nodded slightly, with an embarrassed or shy look on her face. Her eyes sparkled, and she looked at me with her head half-tilted, and then she burst out laughing.

Unraveling a knot in my heart for a long time, I seem to have even washed my soul, and my whole person is much more relaxed.

As soon as you're in a good mood, you want to eat sweets.

I ordered two more desserts with a big appetite, Shen Yu didn't eat them, so I wrapped both of them roundly, and then chatted with her while eating: "There are too many things that have happened recently, and I'm a little messy." Let's put our affairs aside, you just said that there is no suspense in the case of the ghost in flowers, what do you say? ”

"You're more addicted to solving crimes than I am now."

"People aren't all like this, they always want to find a result for the hanging things."

"Now all the clues are concentrated in the courtyard of the Zhen family." Shen Yu seemed to have finally eased her emotions, she bit a piece of seaweed and said unhurriedly, "The first one to die is Lu Xianheng." The murderer first used a wheelbarrow to transport the fountain water from the Xinyunli community to the pool in the courtyard of the Zhen family, and then disguised himself as a ghost in a flower dress, drowned Lu Xianheng in the pool and moved the body to the fountain, faking it as the scene of falling into the water.

The wheelbarrow, pool, and plastic water bag used by the murderer to commit the crime are all in the courtyard of the Zhen family. And the corresponding witnesses that night, in addition to Luo Xiaomao, who thought that the ghost in flower clothes looked like Lu Xianheng, and Ran Fenqiang, who passed by the gate of Xinyunli Community. ”

I followed her train of thought and said, "Then the next is Luo Laosong." At present, it can only be determined that his death is related to the flower cloth, but there is no tangible evidence. ”

Shen Yu listened and smiled noncommittally.

I saw that she had no objection, and then said, "There are three witnesses this time. First of all, at half past eleven, Xu Chuyue met the ghost in the alley behind the 'Haoqing' bar, and half an hour later, the ghost knocked on the courtyard of the Lu family and was seen by Li Yaru and Aunt Jiang. The next morning, Luo Laosong was found electrocuted on a telephone pole. ”

"Yes, Luo Laosong is currently the least evidence, and there is no direct evidence to prove that his death is related to the ghost of flowers." Shen Yu frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something, "But what is certain is that the murderer wants to have his death related to the ghost of the flower clothes, and create the illusion of 'ghosts punishing the wicked', so as to prepare for his next move." ”

"The third case is the Shang Weimin case, this time the role of the ghost in the flower clothes is more direct, it appeared in front of Luo Dagang and Shang Weimin, and successfully caused the chase of the brave and ruthless Shang Weimin, it played a trick in the alley before and after the 'beauty salon', although it was inadvertently bumped into by Yao Xia, but it still managed to avoid the surveillance and Luo Dagang's eyes, and led Shang Weimin to Chuanyunqu, right?"

Shen Yu nodded, she took a sip of boiled water, and then said, "According to logic, the murderer should have wanted to make Shang Weimin fall into the water like Lu Xianheng, but I didn't expect that although Shang Weimin was drunk, he had a habit of going crazy after drinking, so he didn't lose the ability to resist."

At this time, the murderer may have heard Liu Ping and Lu Xiaofeng complaining and came over, he was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he strangled Shang Weimin with a wire in a hurry, and buried the body in the garbage dump nearby, creating the illusion that Shang Weimin was missing, so as to hide people's eyes and ears. The witnesses to this case are Luo Dagang, Lu Xiaofeng and Liu Ping. And the murder weapon at that time also came from the courtyard of the Zhen family. ”

"Actually, there is a fourth eyewitness." I stuffed a large mouthful of steak and said while eating, "Lu Shihui saw a ghost in flower clothes at the entrance of his house that night, and the mouth of his house is also the mouth of the alley of Zhenzhao's house." ”

I thought about it, but in the end I didn't say that there was actually a fifth witness, that is, Xu Chuyue, who also saw the corpse of the ghost in flower clothes.

"This points to the courtyard of the Zhen family again." Shen Yu said lightly, "Obviously, the murderer used the courtyard of the Zhen family as a base camp and planned three murders there. ”

"That Zhen Zhao is very suspicious!" I couldn't help but sigh.

Shen Yu gave me a blank look, because I said a nonsense: "Of course Zhen Zhao is very suspicious - he is short of money, which is an obvious motive for killing." ”

In the past, I didn't suffer from Shen Yu's eyes, but this time I felt very different, in addition to refuting in this eye, there was also resentment, which almost melted the heart of licking the dog.

I forced the smile on my face, thought about it, and said, "However, Lu Shihui also has suspicions, he has the key to the Zhenzhao family, is it possible that the two of them committed the crime together?" Or are they mutually informed? ”

On the surface, the direction of the courtyard of the Zhen family is very wide - Zhen Zhao has been evading debts for a long time, there is no one at home, and it is always possible for outsiders to get the key to his house. In this way, trying to find the murderer is simply looking for a needle in a haystack.

But I thought about it, although there is no one in the Zhen family, but there are many people who collect debts in the high walls and deep courtyards, but they are only spray painted and smashed outside, and they can't even enter the courtyard door, which shows that the door of the Zhen family is strict, and no one can enter if they want to.

"No matter who it is, they are all people who are very familiar with Zhenzhao, or rather, people who are very familiar with Zhenzhao's family."

I suddenly remembered another question, so I scratched my head and asked Shen Yu: "But I still have a question that I don't understand-why did the murderer carry wires with him on the night he killed Shang Weimin?" ”

"I've also thought about it, and I speculate that the murderer was quite cautious, and it was very convenient to carry the wire with him, and it didn't look weird to put it in his pocket, so he often carried the wire for self-defense—you see, he used it when he killed Shang Weimin. If the murderer is Zhen Zhao, it is easy to understand that he cut a piece of wire and belt it on his body. But if it weren't for him, the murderer would be even more cunning - in addition to self-defense, wires can also play a role in blame. ”

I was taken aback, if it was really a blame, it meant that the murderer had thought about all the situations in advance, and his long-term thinking was really staggering.

After listening to Shen Yu's detailed explanation, I couldn't help but jump up again - after talking openly and honestly just now, the relationship between the two of us seems to have taken a big step, she used to always hold the shelf, but now she has analyzed so many cases with me, and her attitude is much gentler.

In the past, whenever I asked such obvious questions, she basically ignored them, but I didn't expect to explain them so patiently this time.

I suddenly remembered something again, and hurriedly said, "I pulled a piece of mud off the wheel of my wheelbarrow yesterday, and this should be a very important piece of evidence!" ”

Shen Yu sat up straight all of a sudden: "Where's the thing?" ”

I smiled awkwardly: "I changed my clothes today, and things were left at home." Do you want to go back and get it now? ”
