Chapter 21 of the second case: The analysis of alibi
"Then I want to make a hypothesis, if you or your friend killed Wang Chengshun, would you persuade yourself, or your friend, to turn yourself in?" After speaking, I stared at Du Xun's emotional changes.
"I don't think anyone who killed Wang Chengshun would turn himself in, because what kind of person Wang Chengshun is was already clear a few years ago." He replied naturally.
Hearing this, I laughed coldly, and thought to myself: If this is the case, there is no cure.
"Any more questions?" He looked at himself in the mirror, then looked at me in the mirror and said.
"I don't know if I should say a word or not."
"What's not to say?"
I walked up to him, smirked and whispered, "Your biggest flaw is that you're too confident. ”
After speaking, Du Xun looked at me blankly, and then pretended to be calm and said, "I have always been very confident." ”
I turned and walked towards the exit, and as I walked out of the dressing room, I exclaimed, "Thank you very much, for telling me the answer to this puzzle, this puzzle of absence." ”
I walked out of the theater with my head held up and confident, and even though I had been in bad shape lately and my confidence had taken a hit, I was now enjoying the sunshine, the game, and the joy of winning. Now only the last evidence is left in the whole case.
Then I took a taxi and went to the villa again, everything was the same as it was a week ago, the cordon was swinging up and down with the slight wind, and the workers at the nearby construction site were still working like that.
Crossing the cordon, I walked into the house, came to the cracked glass door, gently stroked the crack on it with my hand, and suddenly appeared in front of my eyes He Ran's industrious picture of carefully designing this glass door, into the deceased's bedroom, I stood near the door, took out my mobile phone and called Chen Hu: "Brother Chen Hu, are you busy?" ”
"I'm in the bureau, I'm not very busy, what's wrong, have I regained my confidence?"
"Well, I know how the murderer's alibi was designed."
"What!" Chen Hu was very surprised and said, "You came to Sucheng to investigate again?" ”
"I'm in the deceased's villa right now, and I want to see if I can find evidence here, but I can't find it now, so I'd like to give you a call."
"Don't leave yet, we'll come over now."
After hanging up the phone, I sat on the chest of drawers at the door and waited for Chen Hu and them. Soon, the sound of the siren reached me, and Captain Zhou took Chen Hu and Xu Zhe into the villa.
I walked out of the bedroom and saw Captain Zhou and they smiled: "Wow, what a big formation, all of a sudden." ”
"yes, we can't help but hear that you know how to design an alibi." Captain Zhou replied politely.
"I went to Meng Tingting's house again to ask, and went to the Sunset Theater by the way, but now I don't have conclusive evidence to prove that they committed the crime."
"Let's talk about their alibi first, let's find out first." Chen Hu said anxiously.
"The case itself was participated by Du Xun, Meng Tingting, He Yin and Liu Xichen, and the four of them performed a seemingly perfect alibi together, some tricks need to deceive the eyes of many people, and they only need to deceive the eyes of two people."
"Two people? What do you mean. ”
"They just need to deceive the fan couple, that is, the eyes of the neighbors, at the beginning we have been wandering in how they falsify the alibi, in fact, from a logical point of view, their alibi is true, so we have no way to crack it, but there is one point, Meng Tingting is a makeup artist, a makeup artist of the crew, and Du Xun is a drama actor, as long as the two of them cooperate perfectly, it is easier to design such an alibi, Why did Du Xun leave the party for half an hour around one o'clock, and why did Meng Tingting take He Yin to the neighbor to borrow a water heater to take a bath at about one o'clock, because Meng Tingting was not He Yin at all, but Du Xun! ”
"You mean, Du Xun is dressed up as his girlfriend? Is this possible? ”
"It's entirely possible, don't forget that Du Xun and his girlfriend's height are basically the same, and Du Xun's appearance itself is a very handsome appearance, coupled with the techniques of a professional makeup artist and his own acting skills, in fact, I went to the Sunset Theater just now, and I happened to see Du Xun rehearsing a play, he played the role of a junior, and he also imitated the way girls spoke, I didn't see that the woman was played by him at all, it was simply flawless."
"So, Du Xun used that half an hour to go back to his home to put on makeup and then cooperate with Meng Tingting to act in this play in front of his neighbors?"
"Yes, Du Xun's friend said that he has a sissy tone, which can make it easier for him to disguise himself as a woman, on the night of the crime, he first attended a friend's party, and then came out halfway and returned home to ask Meng Tingting to put on makeup for him, and then let the neighbors see him with their own eyes, it can be said that the neighbors' minds are more focused on football, and they are already very familiar, so as long as they take a general look, they will think that it is He Yin, and it is easy to deceive their eyes, I think the reason for this time period is also because they had already planned to kill Wang Chengshun at this point in time, after deceiving the neighbor's eyes, Meng Tingting went in to take a bath, and Du Xun went back to the room to quickly remove his makeup and then return to the party place, so that their alibi was completed, and his speed of removing makeup was also very fast, which I just saw in the Sunset Theater. ”
"So the real He Yin was actually at the scene at the time of the crime?"
"I think she came to the scene of the crime through Liu Xichen, and then she stayed at Wang Chengshun's house, Wang Chengshun and Meng Tingting will definitely know her best friend after being together, so for Wang Chengshun, He Yin is not a stranger, and it is also realistic to let her stay there, maybe they sang double reeds, and then poured sleeping pills on him, Wang Chengshun himself has the habit of taking sleeping pills, so they will definitely make good use of this, and then Liu Xichen will leave first and create an alibi for himself, Then He Yin killed Wang Chengshun at the time of the crime, Liu Xichen should have deliberately left the necklace in the villa, so that there was a reason to return to the scene halfway and pick He Yin away, I think the mysterious figure that Liu Xichen said should also be to mislead you. ”
"Speaking of which, the murderer is He Yin."
"It can only be her, Liu Xichen has to go to Wang Chengshun, and at the same time he has to create an alibi for himself, Du Xun also has to help He Yin make an alibi, and it is precisely because of the deception of the fan couple that logically, their alibi is valid, which will lead to their suspicion and no way to investigate."
"Then why kill Wang Chengshun? It won't be because of He Yin's sister He Ran. Chen Hu asked suspiciously.
"Otherwise, who else could it be, today in her house, she accidentally touched a cloth bag when she was cleaning, which was full of photos, many of which were photos of her and her boyfriend, and a few of them were her sister's decorative design, including the glass door that Brother Chen Hu said before, indicating that she still has a lot of memories of her sister, as for why not put the photos in the album, I think it should be that I don't want to be found, even if the cloth bag is found during the investigation, it can also be explained as forgotten in it, After all, who would put the photo in a cloth bag, and put more group photos to hide. ”
"Then you can issue a wanted warrant." Xu Zhe nodded and said.
"Not yet, the main reason is that there is no definite evidence yet, as long as it can be proved that there are flaws in any part of their alibi, but I think the most important thing is Du Xun, because he plays two roles alone, and he is the most prone to flaws, but on the night of the crime, he just walked outside for half an hour, and he didn't go anywhere, but he couldn't find nearby surveillance to deny his statement." I replied helplessly.
"Walk outside? In this case, there is indeed one that can be used as evidence. A police officer scratched his chin and said.
"What evidence?" I suddenly came to ask with confidence.
"Yesterday, when I came home from work, I met a brother of mine, he was from the police station, and he just dealt with a clandestine case, because that person also lived in Du Xun's community, and he also knew that the case I was investigating had checked Du Xun before, all of which were in a community, so he told me that there was a candid shooting maniac in that community, and a woman who often photographed other buildings in his own house at night, and some people knew that he was secretly filming, and then he couldn't stand it anymore and reported the case, and they also found the camera used for candid photography, He also showed me the candid video, and I found that on the night of the crime, when the candid photographer was filming a person on the first floor, he happened to shoot Du Xun walking into the community, and his camera had night vision function, and he could be sure that the person who entered the community was Du Xun. ”
"Then why didn't you say it earlier!" Xu Zhe asked with a bitter face.
"Didn't you say that he just went out for half an hour, and I didn't care if he didn't have the time to commit the crime."
"Then as long as Du Xun says that he didn't go home that night, you can catch him." Captain Zhou also said confidently.
"Then I'll take care of the rest." I smiled and bowed to them.
"Don't be so polite." Chen Hu walked over and put his hands on my shoulders and said, "Let you solve the problems we can't solve, I really underestimate you." ”
"Don't say that, the case isn't over yet."
Because the time was not early, Brother Chen Hu sent me back to the station first, and the others went directly to investigate Du Xun, I sat in the car and wiped my face with my hands and said: "Hey, I should be the most decadent this morning, I really want to give up." ”
"So you should also be grateful to yourself for not giving up."
"Mainly thanks to my sister, keep persuading me, thinking of Du Xun pretending to be a woman is also because of the power outage this morning, when I went downstairs to ask the maintenance man, I regarded the woman as a man, and looked very much like a man from behind, at that time I felt as if something was prompting me, and then I went to see Du Xun's drama rehearsal today, and I suddenly thought that there was such a possibility, the whole design is actually very simple, no need for any device, only a performance, and this is what Du Xun is best at."
"I was still thinking about giving up in the morning, but I suddenly understood everything in the afternoon, do you feel that this process is very magical?"
"No, I feel like a long time has passed this morning, of course, solving the case may be like this, suddenly I found a little, and the whole case was solved, which was even more refreshing than my last case."
"Did you think of any other possibilities before this?"
"Yes, it's an idea of my sister's case, I thought they found someone to replace one of them as an alibi, but after thinking about it, if it was an outsider, the neighbors might recognize it, and the party would be even more impossible, the surveillance was filmed, and those people were very familiar with Du Xun, and it was impossible to replace them, so I felt really directionless at that time."
"If it weren't for your reasoning today, I'm afraid that this case would really be investigated according to the wrong way of thinking and become a second case of your sister." Chen Hu said without danger.
"I think the truth is this, the smashed glass door is He Yin found his sister's design in his home, and I can't accept that this person framed my sister and stole my sister's design, so I smashed it, just like Meng Tingting destroyed his company with her own hands, all this is for revenge, when I talk to them today, I can also hear their various emotions for He Ran, living with hatred, it's really tiring."
"Now I still have a question, why did I implement this murder plan after Meng Tingting got married for so long."
"Maybe they haven't found a suitable modus operandi, and when the case is solved, I really want to ask Meng Tingting how she lives these days, sleeping in the same bed with her best friend's enemy, I'm afraid to tell her secret every night."
"Hey, Meng Tingting has done so much, it can be regarded as a complete sacrifice of herself, but all this is not worth it, it's a pity, so many beautiful beauties will actually participate in such a homicide." Chen Hu sighed with a little regret.
"This ending is not very good, I still like the ending of Li Yan's case, it is my sister's case, these two cases are really similar on the whole, but one is because of love and the other is because of hate, but it doesn't matter, at least I feel that the pressure in my heart is all gone."
"It seems that I lost this bet, you solved the case first, what are the requirements, I will definitely do what I can do."
"I don't have any requirements, if I have a chance to come to Sucheng in the future, don't pick me up, I can go by myself, I always feel like a child when I am picked up, I dare not tell you when I come today."
"No wonder, haha, just let me know if you want to come later."
"By the way, Brother Chen Hu, do you have that kind of unsolved case here, the kind that hasn't been solved for a long time?"
"Yes, are you interested? If you are interested, come to me when you have time, and I will find out the information for you. ”
"No, no, no, I'm just asking, my sister also has some long-standing unsolved cases, what if these cases can never be solved?"
"Now that technology is so advanced, it will always be cracked, and even if it can't be cracked now, it will be in the future, no matter how many years, these cases will stay here, waiting for the day when they are solved."
"Wow, I want to cry a little bit, so many victims' souls can't be freed, and it's very uncomfortable to think about it."
After coming to the station, Chen Humu sent me on the train, and I saw Brother Chen Hu's very trusting eyes on the car, and I felt that the sweat during this time was not in vain.
When I got home, it was already six o'clock in the evening, and my sister hadn't come back yet, so I sat down on the sofa with a long sigh of relief, and not long after I sat down, my sister came back, looking at me wearing half-sleeved shorts and said without pause: "Went to Sucheng?" ”
"Well, the case is coming to an end, but I didn't expect it to end so suddenly."
"Solved the case?"
"I think I'm interrogating right now." At this time, Brother Chen Hu sent a message, with only three words: It's done. It seemed that Du Xun had recruited them, and I said confidently: "I broke the alibi, hehe." ”
My sister didn't seem to be surprised, and said very blandly: "Yes, since you have nothing to do, help me wash the vegetables, it's time to cook." ”
