Mr. Chu frowned, obviously his patience had been exhausted by Shi An, so he simply lowered his head and continued to drink coffee, ignoring the person standing in front of him who was angry and didn't say a word.

The air was quiet all of a sudden, Shi An was so angry that he didn't want to speak, and Mr. Chu just lowered his head and drank coffee, his eyes casually falling somewhere.

Fang Lubai knew that there was nothing to investigate about Mr. Chu at this time, so he had to say thank you, and then pulled Shi An away.

As soon as Shi An, who was pulling his wrist, left Mr. Chu's house, he couldn't help what he wanted to say in his heart, and began to complain to Fang Lubai: "Don't you think Mr. Chu is very strange? The death of my girlfriend is actually this kind of performance, the more I look at it, the more I feel that he is strange, and I am angry with me! ”

Fang Lubai had already seen the surprise, pulling Shi An's wrist and walking forward by himself, no matter what she said in the back, he just didn't hear it, he now only wanted to know what the results of the other teams were investigating, and whether he had gotten some key clues to help solve the case next.

Lu Bai didn't speak all the way, and Shi An also closed her mouth when she saw this, although she hadn't been in the criminal police team for a long time, she knew that this was a performance that Fang Lubai would only have when she thought seriously.

When the two of them arrived at the conference room of the criminal police team, all the others had already arrived.

After understanding the situation with all the personnel in detail, there were a lot of things reported by each team, but Fang Lubai had been the captain of the criminal police team for so long, and after sorting out this information, he quickly found that these things did not help the case in any way.

The case is completely deadlocked.

The case is confusing, and the information currently available basically does not play a key role in the case, and the people of the entire S city are panicked, and many young single women dare not go out at night to stay at home, and no longer dare to go out with red bags, for fear that the next person to be poisoned is themselves.

Late at night on the third day after the incident, Fang Lubai, who had planned to go out for a walk and relax his tense nerves, went to the place where the body of the third deceased was dumped.

He stood still and stared at the place for a while, then walked to the path that the third deceased had walked before, trying to simulate the scene when the third victim was killed, in order to find a breakthrough.

He pursed his lips and walked step by step on the path, the sound of his footsteps was particularly clear in the quiet night, and when his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness of a certain place next to the place where the corpse was dumped on the island, his left foot stepped out, and when he was about to land, he was forced to give something.

Fang Lubai hurriedly retracted his feet, took out his mobile phone from his pants pocket, and squatted down, with the light of the mobile phone screen, he clearly saw that there was a watch lying quietly on the muddy path, and the second hand was still moving.

He reached out and picked it up.

Fang Lubai wanted to see the watch clearly, but the mobile phone in his hand did not cooperate, and it automatically turned off because it ran out of power.

In desperation, Fang Lubai had no choice but to return home the same way first.

After arriving home, Fang Lubai hurriedly turned on the light, and began to study the watch without wearing shoes.

The time shown on the watch is 17:48.

Fang Lubai felt that something was wrong, it was already late at night, how could it be more than five o'clock in the afternoon, he looked up at the electronic clock on the wall, and the red numbers on it clearly said that it was now:

23:48。

This watch is a full six hours back!

This watch is indeed moving continuously, there should be no broken phenomenon, how can this watch appear at the scene of the third deceased, the first few surveys have not found it, is this the deceased's thing? Or was it inadvertently left behind by the murderer?

Fang Lubai suppressed countless speculations in his heart, stayed awake all night, and only waited for the next day to go to the third deceased's home to find a good understanding of the situation.

Because of the family's schedule, Fang Lubai decided to wait until ten o'clock in the morning to visit.

Fang Lubai, who opened his eyes directly from nearly twelve o'clock in the evening to nine o'clock the next day and then rushed out to the deceased's house, said that he was very tormented.

He had witnessed the gradual replacement of night by dawn.

At ten o'clock, Fang Lubai arrived at the door of the third deceased's house on time, he politely raised his hand and knocked on the door, and after listening to the movement for a while, the deceased's mother, Aunt Lin, opened the door for him, her eyes were red, her face was tired, and she looked very haggard.

Aunt Lin didn't expect Fang Lubai to visit suddenly, thinking that her daughter's case had made some progress, she came up and grabbed Fang Lubai's arm: "Officer Fang, is there a whereabouts of my daughter, who is the murderer, have you been caught?" ”

Fang Lubai was so shocked by Aunt Lin's actions that she took half a step back, and when she saw the look on her face, she hurriedly reached out and patted the back of her hand, and spoke patiently: "Aunt Lin, I picked up something at the scene of your daughter's crime, take a look, is this your daughter's." ”

Aunt Lin nodded hurriedly and took the watch from Fang Lubai's hand.

"Oops, this thing isn't my daughter's!" Aunt Lin only glanced at it and concluded that before Fang Lubai could say that she should take a few more looks, she heard her next sentence, "My daughter never wears a watch, she bought her several watches when she was a child, and she always lost them, and she never wore a watch anymore because she was troublesome." She put the watch back into Fang Lubai's palm.

"Hmm... Okay, so have you ever seen this watch? ”

"I don't seem to have seen it, this person doesn't have a good memory when he's old, you wait, I'll call her dad to you, maybe I've seen it!"

Fang Lubai smiled and bowed: "Well, okay, thank you, Auntie." Then he began to wait with some anticipation.

As a result, all the relatives of the deceased's family were called to see this watch, but no one said that they had seen it, although Fang Lubai was disappointed, he had already made such a plan in his heart, and repeatedly promised the deceased's family that he would solve the case as soon as possible and arrest the real culprit, so he politely thanked him and left.

Since it is not the deceased, it is possible that it is the murderer?

Fang Lubai sat in the driver's seat and took out this watch again, his eyes swept over every part of this watch inch by inch, except for some time failures, its appearance does not seem to have other problems, this kind of watch style is very common on the market, if it is accidentally left by a passerby is not impossible.

"It's just...... Why is this time six hours slower? He muttered, reaching out to turn the watch back.

Strange things happen.

No matter how Fang Lubai rotated the spiral next to the watch to adjust the time, the three hands were not affected at all, and they still walked as usual, without any deflection.

It turned out to be a broken watch.

Fang Lubai sighed, he actually wasted so much time for a broken watch, casually put the watch on his wrist, and then drove directly to the criminal police team.

When he arrived at the criminal police team, everyone else had already arrived, everyone sat quietly in their seats and waited, Fang Lubai pushed the door in, strode to his seat, looked at the team members with serious expressions, and suddenly turned his attention from the table to the case.

"This afternoon, the investigation will continue, and this mission will continue to investigate the social background and relationship of the victims, focusing on whether anyone has had a dispute with the three victims recently, understand?"

"Got it!"

"Okay, let's go."

Shi An followed Fang Lubai on the Chu mission this time, with the shadow of the last time she saw Mr. Chu, she said that she didn't want to go to Mr. Chu's house again this time, Shi An was afraid that she couldn't help but beat him up.

Fang Lubai naturally knew Shi An's temperament, and in Group A, he also instructed two members of the team with a calm personality to investigate Mr. Chu, while the rest of the people went with him to investigate Yu's relatives and friends.

This time, for the convenience of the investigation, Fang Lubai called several of his close friends and immediate family members to Yu's house early, and at about half past three, Group A finally arrived at the destination, and several people got out of the car and went downstairs directly, and even Shi An didn't say anything.

The case is urgent, and I don't even have the heart to laugh.

Several people arrived at Yu's house, simply assigned tasks, and began to question different people in groups of two.

Fang Lubai was worried that Shi An and the others would not be able to hold back their temper again, so they took her with her, told her not to be reckless, and looked at the person in front of her and nodded desperately before closing her mouth.

Shi An and Fang Lubai first interviewed Yu's mother, who looked lost and obviously hadn't recovered from the blow of her daughter's death.

"Auntie, what did you wear this morning and where did you go?"

"I... I put on a red coat this morning and went grocery shopping...... Went to the vegetable market downstairs. Yu's mother spoke weakly, her voice was still a little hoarse, and she only lowered her head when she answered.

Fang Lubai just wanted to ask something, but the alarm clock suddenly flashed some clips, showing that at 9:52 this morning, Yu's mother wore a white coat and went to the vegetable market downstairs to buy vegetables, but she didn't seem to be in good shape, she staggered when she walked, and she didn't buy anything when she came back.

He spoke, "Auntie, you were wearing a white coat this morning, right?" ”

Yu's mother was stunned, thought carefully for a moment, and nodded.

Fang Lubai immediately felt that something was wrong, how could he know what Yu's mother was wearing this morning, he went to the house of the third deceased this morning, and he hadn't seen her at all!

He glanced down at the watch in his hand, and the time shown on it—

9:58。

Except for the time when Yu's mother was thinking about it just now, it just coincided with the time in the morning!

He ignored Shi An next to him and continued to ask Yu's mother some questions, and immediately came to the next one, a young woman and Yu's best friend before his death, laughing and laughing.

"Rao Xiaoxiao, where did you go this morning?"

Fang Lubai asked.

"This morning? I went to take a picture, I lost my ID card, and I have to go to reissue it. ”

"What are you wearing?"

"That's what I have!" Rao Xiaoxiao pointed to the light purple dress on his body.

Some more images suddenly appeared in Fang Lubai's mind-

At 10:01 in the morning, Rao Xiaoxiao and her boyfriend wore a purple dress and went to the supermarket to buy some food and drink, and the two walked into the supermarket holding hands.

Fang Lubai subconsciously blurted out: "What you wore in the morning, went to the supermarket?" ”

"I got my ID card this morning, and then I went to the supermarket with my boyfriend." Rao Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and answered truthfully.

Fang Lubai looked down at his watch, the time displayed was 10:03, excluding the time when the two people talked and recalled, the time was completely right.

He suddenly had a bold idea.

The watch was a full six hours behind the real time, and as long as he wore it, he would be able to know what had happened six hours earlier.
