Chapter 37: Discovering the Murderer's Hiding Place

Faced with the major progress in the case, Xu Dirong couldn't wait to rush out of the office with these two photos, shouting: "Where is Zhao Youwen? Are you there? What about people? ”

Although he was just shouting Zhao Youwen, everyone ran out, and when Xu Dirong saw Zhao Youwen, he dragged her into the car, and then drove out of the police station like a drag racing car. Zhao Youwen, who was in the car, was a little scared, and Xu Dirong, who had been steady before, suddenly became crazy, which made people very uncomfortable, and even a little scared.

Zhao Youwen asked cautiously, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Solve the case."

"And where are you taking me now?"

"The scene of the crime."

Zhao Youwen saw the two photos of the crime scene that Xu Dirong put on the car, and immediately understood a little, and asked, "Did you find anything?" ”

It's early in the morning, the street is full of traffic, even if Xu Dirong has a heart for drag racing, but the car just can't get up, and even whether it can move is a problem, no, it's a traffic jam, Xu Dirong slapped the steering wheel with his hand and scolded.

"What did you find?" Zhao Youwen asked eagerly.

Xu Dijon did not answer directly, but asked: "Can you tell me what you saw after the crime, just talk about the scene in the bathroom." ”

"Didn't I say that before?"

"I'm sorry I didn't listen carefully enough at the time, you say it again."

Zhao Youwen didn't believe that Xu Dirong didn't listen seriously enough at that time, and Zhao Youwen didn't want to recall that kind of tragic scene, so she reached out and took the two photos and said, "Isn't this a photo of the crime scene?" You can see for yourself......"

"Don't move the photo," Xu Dirong preemptively took the photo in his hand and put it in his pocket.

The road slowly cleared, Xu Dijon stepped on the accelerator, and the car began to move forward.

"You don't look at the photos, you think back to what you saw at the time, and then say it," Xu said. ”

Zhao Youwen looked very puzzled, but still did what Xu Dirong said, and began to recall the tragic situation, Zhao Youwen's face gradually changed and said: "At that time, I was sitting at the dining table waiting for my dad to come out, and when I saw that the rain head had been spraying water on the sandblasted glass door of the bathroom, I felt strange, so I went to open the door, and then the hot bath water sprayed on my face, and I screamed when I hit the shower head to the ground, because the fog inside was very large, I didn't see the situation inside clearly for the first time, and when the fog dispersed, I saw a horrible scene, my dad had no head, and the whole person was lying in the bathtub......"

When Zhao Youwen said this, Xu Dirong suddenly stopped the car and asked seriously: "Think about it, what kind of terrifying scene it is, what you just said is different from what you said for the first time." ”

Zhao Youwen blinked her eyes and tried to recall, "It's my dad in the bathtub, and his head is missing." ”

"Tell me more carefully, tell me more clearly, how is it in the bathtub?" Xu Dijon asked anxiously, and the vehicles blocked behind honked one after another, but Xu Dijon ignored them.

"How in the bathtub? yes, uh, I think about it, there's water in the tub, it's full, my dad is in it, it's floating. Zhao Youwen tried to think about it and said.

Zhao Youwen got to the point, Xu Dirong grabbed her and asked very happily, "Are you sure?" Are you sure it's floating? ”

Zhao Youwen looked suspicious and muttered: "Impossible, impossible, shouldn't it be floating?" ”

"You don't care about it or not, just say what you saw at the time."

"The water in the bathtub is full, I'm sure of this, my dad floats on it......"

"Are you sure about this?"

Zhao Youwen nodded, "It's floating on it, but it's not right!" What shouldn't float on it, supposedly supposedly sinks. ”

Zhao Youwen looked at Xu Dirong with incredible eyes, hoping to answer his doubts.

Xu Dijon said: "Yes, it should have sunk, but it didn't. ”

"Why? A corpse that has been soaked in water for a long time will float, isn't it ......?"

"Do you think the corpse looks like it's been soaked for a long time?"

The whistle that honked one after another began to be mixed with the angry shouting of the driver, and Xu Dijon drove the car.

Zhao Youwen thought for a few more seconds, and suddenly, her eyes doubled wide, and she woke up like a dream, and said: "I understand, I understand where the murderer was at the time, the murderer didn't escape from the bathroom at all, he hid in the bathtub!" ”

"That's right! The murderer completely submerged his and your father's heads in the bathtub, and held your father's body up below, because the bathroom was foggy at that time, the water in the bathtub was blood-red, and you were so frightened that you fled from the house after seeing the tragic situation, so you didn't find him, and after you escaped from the house, the murderer walked out of the bathroom with his head and hid. ”

"Then do you say the murderer is still at home? You have been sending police officers to guard the scene since the incident. ”

Xu Dijon said very remorsefully: "I don't know, I wish I had never left the scene of the crime." ”

Zhao Youwen asked very curiously: "How did you find out that the murderer was hiding in the bathtub?" ”

"You may not believe it, in fact, just now I was racking my brain in the office thinking about another thing, but there was no progress, and I accidentally glanced at a photo of the crime scene, and suddenly, I was like Einstein possessed, and my brain became the strongest in the world, and I learned the clues left by the murderer from the photo, and then I looked at other photos carefully, and then found the murderer's hiding place from this photo with a bathtub." Saying that, Xu Dirong handed the photo of the bathtub to Zhao Youwen.

Zhao Youwen took a closer look, "The water in the bathtub in this photo is not full, and half of Zhao Kelong's body has sunk." ”

Zhao Kelong said: "If you go in, it will definitely be full, I didn't allow you to move the photo just now, because I don't want you to be misled by the water that is not full in the photo." ”

"You're doing it right, my memory might be confused if you read it. I have a question for you, I remember when I told you about the crime at the scene of the crime, I should have said that the bathtub was full of water, and my father's body was floating on it, and because I was too frightened at the time, I didn't find anything unreasonable, but why didn't you find it? ”

Xu Dijon smiled embarrassedly and said, "To be honest, half of my attention was on one person at that time, which may have caused me not to realize the unreasonableness. ”

"Who?"

"That's you!"

"Oh, I remember."

"At that time, after I saw the scene of the crime, I thought it was very weird, incredible, the murderer could not evaporate from the bathroom for no reason, according to my experience in handling the case, once something incredible happened, it must not be a ghost or a god doing the trick, but someone deliberately created this kind of incredible."

"So, you suspect that I made all this."

"In the process of your narration, I have been observing your expression, but there is nothing abnormal, you may not be lying, and then, I turned my attention back to the process of the crime you tell, hoping to find something, if it takes a little longer, I may be able to find out where the murderer is hiding, but then you received a call from Liu Bohong to turn himself in, and then you suspected your mother, until your mother went to sleep, and I found out that the murderer was hiding in the bathtub through the photo in the office alone."

Zhao Youwen looked at Xu Dirong's pocket and said, "You still have a photo in your pocket." ”

Xu Dirong didn't say a word, and handed the photo in his pocket to Zhao Youwen, which was a photo of the chaotic footprints on the ground.

Xu Dijon asked, "Do you remember the location of these footprints?" ”

"Of course, I remember that at the door of the bathroom, when I opened the door of the bathroom, the shower head hanging in the air sprayed a lot of water outside, and I screamed in fright and escaped from the house, and the neighboring residents heard the sound and came out of the house to find out, and they all gathered at the door of the bathroom and saw the tragic situation inside."

"Well, if those residents hadn't gone in to investigate, I would have found out the traces left by the murderer at the time, and I wouldn't have waited until now."

Zhao Youwen held up the photo and said: "The murderer took advantage of me to escape from the house, he came out of the bathroom at this time and hid elsewhere, there must be water on his feet, and he will definitely leave footprints when he comes out, so the murderer used the shower head to sprinkle a puddle of water at the door of the bathroom, and after the outside residents came in to the door of the bathroom to watch, the footprints on the ground became like this in the photo, and it was impossible to tell who was who." ”
